Gun Shop Allegedly Banned From Partcipating in Popular Store’s Contest: ‘Entry Contains Content That Promotes…Firearms’

May 31, 2013 at 12:58am

Sheesh….another business that needs boycotting. They take a stand against me, I will reciprocate and take a stand against them, and encourage other 2nd Amendment supporters to do the same. Office Max, here I come.
Jim Carrey on Gun Control Opponents: ‘Heartless Motherf%ckers Unwilling 2 Bend 4 the Safety of Our Kids’

March 24, 2013 at 11:02pm

Of course, it would never occur the brilliant Mr. Carey that perhaps the people who own AR-15s and other “assault” rifles might own them precisely so that they can protect their children. It would seem beyond obvious that being unarmed did nothing whatsoever to protect those kids in Newtown. In fact, it simply insured that the evil person who walked into the school could do so unopposed. I’m sure Mr. Carey feels wonderful about himself, and congratulates himself on trying to make kids safer, while denigrating those of who choose to be armed, and not depend on the state to take care of us. The problem, unfortunately, is that he would be accomplishing the opposite of what he says he wants. The more law abiding gun owners are stripped of their rights, the easier it will be for criminals to do as they please. Out children will not be safer. They will be in more danger. More guns, less crime. Read John Lott.

Pro-Gun Woman Scolds Dem Senator: ‘You Are Not a Woman Stuck in Her House, Having to Defend Her Children’

The reason a civilian may need a 30 round magazine is not to hunt deer, or to protect him/herself against criminals. It is to protect him/herself against tyranny. The Second Amendment, like all the Amendments in the Bill of Rights, is to recognize a right of the people in relation to the state. To quote the Declaration of Independence, “That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” Americans had just fought a bloody war to set themselves free from a government which in many ways was far less onerous than our current administration, which is displaying certain totalitarian tendencies (anyone for a 32 ounce soft drink?). The Bill of Rights guaranteed that citizens would be able to keep and bear the same basic personal arms as those carried by the military. Checks and balances are not just 3 co-equal branches of government. We, the people, are the final check and balance, protecting ourselves from falling under the rule of another George III (or perhaps, Barack I). I refer the reader once again to the words of the Declaration of Independence, cited above.
NRA Issues ‘Major Response’ to Obama’s Inaugural Address: No Gov’t Can Ever Take Away Our ‘God-Given Freedoms’

In reply to Canada_Goose.

There is no constitutional right to keep and bear a Corvette; there is to keep and bear arms, and for good reason. Of course, you’d actually have to know what the Founders thought, which is no great chore, since the quotations are easily found by anyone with the desire to look. As for guns being designed to kill people, you might consider the fact that sometimes that is necessary, hence the sidearms carried by police officers and long arms born by our military. Many of the “fringe group” members you deride are former police and military. They were trusted to bear arms while under government employment. Now, because they are civilian, they are no longer to be trusted? There are millions of Americans who are gun owners. Millions hard constitute a fringe group. And by the way, grow up, and get rid of the low-rent, immature obscenities. You might be taken more seriously if you could actually come across as an adult.
NRA Sees Huge Spike in Membership After Sandy Hook Massacre; Numbers Said to ‘Dwarf Past Trends’

Funny how your condemnation of uber-right-wing hate speech looks remarkably like….hate speech. Uber right wing? KKK? I’m always amused by liberals engaging in what they condemn conservatives for.
Anti-Obama Signs Ignite Controversy: ‘Somewhere in Kenya, a Village Is Missing Its Idiot’

September 22, 2012 at 5:20pm

Limits of free speech? They’re insane. You have liberals running around saying that they’d like to bring about the early demise of the Republican nominee to the Presidency, and the New Black Panthers talking about murdering whites, digging them up and murdering them again, just for good measure, and this bunch is getting their panties in a bunch because someone called Obama the Village Idiot? While I find the use of a child giving the single digit salute to be tasteless, it comes nowhere near the borders of free speech, and nowhere near the hostile rhetoric habitually used by the left.
Rev. Jesse Jackson Wants a Ban on All Guns Aside From ‘Bolt-Action Rifles, Shotguns & Revolvers’ (Poll)

September 8, 2012 at 10:47pm

Will bolt-action rifles, shotguns, or revolvers kill some “less dead” than so-called “assault weapons” and semi-auto handguns? Why the arbitrary distinction? The Second Amendment was not put in place to address a right to hunt or defend one’s home criminals (though they are rights; not every right is enumerated in the Constitution); it was put in place to secure liberty: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” The right of the people to keep and bear arms is tied directly to the preservation of liberty, and it was recognized in the Bill of Rights by a people who had just thrown off a government they deemed tyrannical through the use of arms. They intended to keep that option open for themselves and their descendents. A disarmed (as distinct from unarmed by personal choice) is by definition no longer free. It’s just a matter of how long their leash is…
Gay Activists Gear Up for Today’s ‘Kiss In’ Protest at Chick-fil-A Restaurants Across America

Gay Activists Gear Up for Today’s ‘Kiss In’ Protest at Chick-fil-A Restaurants Across America

August 3, 2012 at 11:50am

On 8/1/12, I tried to get to two Chick-fil-A locations during lunch, but there were so many people I stood no chance of actually getting a meal. I went back and got some food at 3:45 for my wife and myself, during a lull, though they were still busy. We decided later to go back for a couple of milk shakes in the evening, and waited for an hour in the drive-thru line. The inside was packed, and it was about nine in the evening. This morning, I passed two Chick-fil-A locations on the way to work, looking to see how much activity there was in support of the gay agenda
. I saw not one – count ‘em, zero – protestors outside. The contrast could not have been more vivid.
