44% think government effort to confiscate all guns likely
A sizable number of Americans think the federal government is coming after their guns. Forty four percent (44%) of Likely U.S. Voters believe it is at least somewhat likely that the government will try to confiscate all privately owned guns over the next generation or so, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.
S.H. Blannelberry writing in Guns.com argues against banning high capacity magazines by saying that it’s all about timing: Timing. It’s all about timing. The longer it takes a deranged gunman to fire off rounds at a crowd …
Ammunition Is Getting Scarce This morning I lucked out and was able to buy several cases of ammo. On the way home I stopped at the gas station where a drop-dead gorgeous blonde was filling up her car at the next pump. She looked at the ammo in the back of my SUV and said in a very sexy voice, “I’m a big believer in barter, big boy”. “Would you be interested in trading sex for ammo?” I thought a few seconds and asked, “what kinda ammo ya got?”
Holy cow, how do idiots like this get elected? What does this say about the voters that elect such idiots…Look at DC and the Minnesota House, Senate and Governor for more evidence…The stupid is strong with this one!!!
“I admit, I was wrong about the whistle thing,” said Salazar. “It’s really Chipotle that is the best defense against rape. …You try raping a woman who’s been eating Chipotle and you’ll be in for one hell of a shock and regret …and mess!”
Silence reigned throughout the senate chamber after Salazar’s “Chipotle rape prevention” suggestion. Salazar, fearing he had perhaps again committed another anti-rape faux pas in the name of gun control tried to clarify his newest suggestion. “…Or maybe some extra-spicy Indian food…or some old Taco Bell burrito women could carry around in their purse and eat real quick before being attacked. Or even squirt some Visine down your throat.”

What did they expect?
How much cash do they stand to lose on this?
For what? To enable and embolden thugs, gang bangers and whatnot to increase their activities against tax paying citizens and businesses?
Arms and Sovereignty
The Preamble to the Constitution stipulates that “We the people . . . do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States.” It is important to note that the people establish the Constitution; the Constitution does not establish the people. When, then, did “we the people” become a people? Clearly Americans became a people upon the adoption of its first principles of government in the Declaration of Independence, which describes the people both in their political capacity, as “one people,” and in their moral capacity, as a “good people.” In establishing the Constitution, then, the people executed a second contract, this time with government. In this contract, the people delegate power to the government to be exercised for their benefit. But the Declaration specifies that only the “just powers” are delegated. The government is to be a limited government, confined to the exercise of those powers that are fairly inferred from the specific grant of powers
The State of New York has resorted to a “turn in your neighbor” program, for enforcement. Knowing that people will not willingly comply, the state has resorted to a tried and true tactic of turning the citizens upon each other to aggrandize the power of the state.
Does this strike a responsive historical cord, in anyone???

Each year, hospital-acquired infections sicken about 1.7 million and kill 99,000 people in the United States. While up to 50% of patients with CRE bloodstream infections die, similar antibiotic-susceptible bacteria kill about 20% of bloodstream-infected patients.
The federal Department of Veterans Affairs said Monday its mental health professionals won’t comply with a new gun law in New York that requires reporting the names of patients …
Despite the withdrawal of at least 183 exhibitors, and 23 scheduled celebrities, British-owned Reed Outdoor Exhibitions refuses to budge on a prohibition of the presence or display of images of the modern sporting rifle at its Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show scheduled for February 2-10 at the State Farm Complex in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Yesterday, Smith & Wesson, the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) joined the growing list of companies withdrawing both their participation and sponsorship of the east’s largest sport and outdoor show. In protest of the Reed Decision, former advertiser MyNortheastOutdoors.com plans to build and host a no-cost “Virtual Sports Show” online for vendors who have pulled out of the show.
Smith & Wesson, a U.S. based leader in firearm manufacturing and design, today announced that the Company will not attend nor will it support or participate in the 2013 Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The announcement comes after the decision of show management company, Reed Exhibitions, to prohibit the display of modern sporting rifles in this year’s event.
Calling it “an important time to take a clear stance on the support of sportsmen and the Second Amendment and the clear link between the two, the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) has joined the companies withdrawing from the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show due to the show’s decision to ban the display of modern sporting rifles.
The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation has announced its withdrawal as an exhibitor and conductor of the elk calling contest from the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show in Pennsylvania. RMEF believes disallowing of legal modern sporting rifles taken by Reed, a British company, are detrimental to the Second Amendment and our right as Americans to bear arms.
This Week in Guns features a panel of hosts from the Firearms Radio Network headed by Jake Challand, they discuss the magazine ban in New York, possible confiscations and the realities of an assault weapon ban.
During his television program on Tuesday night, Glenn Beck brought in gun expert Paul Michael and historian David Barton to dispel a number of myths about firearms. In the middle of Beck’s Dallas studio sat a table full of various types of firearms — all unloaded of course.
Watch Beck and company go over the difference between “assault rifles” and regular rifles and other common misconceptions about guns:
I agree the .22 lr would make and excellent one gun to survive weapon. I would not as to it ‘having’ to be a Ruger. I think there are a number of fine .22 rifles out there..and I own a couple…
Members of Congress—who are about to debate raising the debt ceiling tomorrow—should have paid attention yesterday. The President was very clear that he sees no urgency about reducing the debt and cutting the deficit. In fact, in his second inaugural address, President Barack Obama was honest about his intentions to grow government in order to remake our country along his progressive vision.
It appears it is time to boot the damn Redcoats out again…make it permanent this time!!!
Brits Ban Guns at America’s Largest Gun ShowThe Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show announced last week that America’s largest outdoor sports show will be banning “certain products” from the show. This week it is becoming clear that they might be regretting that announcement.
Reed Exhibitions, the British company promoting and organizing the event said in a statement “this year we have made the decision not to include certain products that in the current climate may attract negative attention that would distract from the strong focus on hunting and fishing at this family-oriented event and possibly disrupt the broader positive experience of our guests.” . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Hey Schumer you worthless liberal elitist! What does that make politicians whom have made a career out of screwing American Taxpayers? Or those Politicians whom support and allow babies to be murdered? Over 3000 a day? Hmm?
“The highest murder rate in national history was between 1846 and 1887.”
They didn’t have machine guns, AR-15′s or high capacity magazines!
“During Reconstruction, there were counties in Louisiana where you had 200 people per 100,000 residents killed. You’d have counties in Texas with 10,000 people and 500 people killed. In Los Angeles in the 1840s, one in every 46 people were murdered. It’s amazing how many people got killed.”
“These days, people would make a movie about that.”
“One in four children in America participated in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or food stamps, in fiscal year 2011, according to data from the United States Department of Agriculture and U.S. Census Bureau. The USDA’s “Characteristics of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Households: Fiscal Year 2011” shows that in 2011, 19.9 million children, or people under 18, received food stamp benefits. In 2011, the Census estimates there were 73.9 million children under age 18, meaning that 26.9 percent of children, or approximately one in four, were on food stamps in 2011.”
With its corn-based diet and proximity to the United States, Central America has long been vulnerable to economic riptides related to the United States’ corn policy. Now that the United States is using 40 percent of its crop to make biofuel, it is not surprising that tortilla prices have doubled in Guatemala, which imports nearly half of its corn.
Oh really? And you expected thank yous? Well from various crooks, thugs, hoodlums etc. I am sure…
When the Journal News published a map that details the names and addresses of pistol permit holders in Westchester and Rockland counties, the paper’s editors say, they expected some criticism — but not death threats.
Hey get a clue. what protects your other rights especially the 1st Amendment…
“The bottom line here, folks, is that we are at a crossroads in this country in this conversation,” Schultz said. “If we don’t do it now, when are we going to do it? When do the people’s opinion matter to the lawmakers in Congress? How many more children do we have to see die? And how many more bogus promotional sound bites do we have to have from the National Rifle Association that don’t tell the truth about gun violence in this country? It’s not just laws, it is a societal problem. But we have to take the step forward and do something right.”
Here it comes…New York gun laws...More criminals and mobsters then you can shake a stick at and they’ll……ban the gun…bet those bad guys will laugh all the way into your world as they take what they want!!!
You’re sound asleep when you hear a thump outside your bedroom door. Half-awake, and nearly paralyzed with fear, you hear muffled whispers. At least two people have broken into your house and are moving your way. With your heart pumping, you reach down beside your bed and pick up your shotgun. You rack a shell into the chamber, then inch toward the door and open it.
Four more years with Barack Obama as our President, and we are likely to see many green schemes whose time has not come. Who can doubt that the idiocy of the electric car is just coming into fruition? It will mark only more than a century of engineering on a project that shows little spark and even less hopeFour more years with Barack Obama as our President, and we are likely to see many green schemes whose time has not come.

First it was “LGB” — liberal shorthand for “lesbian, gay and bisexual.” Then they added a “T” for “transgender.” That’s cross-dressing. You know, fellas like 45-year-old Clay Francis (aka “Colleen”).
Mr. Francis enjoys macramé, long walks on the beach, wearing lady knickers and showering fully nude with 6-year-old girls.
President of Pro Murder group NARALquits citing lack of youth in the Pro Murder movement..Maybe they, the youth, have realized they were damn lucking in being born? Your goal is to murder babies and your surprised by this?
Calling on individual Americans to “not wait for our elected officials” like President Barack Obama to take effective action against future shooting sprees, Etzioni demands that Americans “should do our share.” They should namely “mark” their dwellings with “gun free” signs.
Gun free zones.How does one protect themselves in an illogical irrational world conceived by those whom cannot protect you, yet want to disarm you?
You can’t!!
For some reason, there is an element of American society that believes people intent on murder will follow other laws. Laws such as those that prohibit the carrying of firearms in specific areas, for example.
My goal with this blog is to offend everyone in the world at least once with my words… so no one has a reason to have a heightened sense of themselves. We are all ignorant, we are all found wanting, we are all bad people sometimes.
