New Controversial First-of-Its-Kind Ammo Claims to Offer ‘Peaceful and Natural Deterrent to Radical Islam’

June 14, 2013 at 9:54pm

Ignorance of history. Anyone who thinks something like that as a deterrent ought to look up the Indian Mutiny of 1857. Merely the rumor of ammunition using pork fat and cow fat as a lubricant was enough to set off a mutiny of Indian soldiers (Sepoys). These were folks that actually liked the British, just so you know.
They were more afraid of using the rounds than getting shot by them.
Wait Until You See the Cool Do-It-Yourself Guns Posted by a Person on Reddit

As far as ammunition goes, it can be improvised. A fellow in England created a 9mm sub-machinegun out of water pipe and sheet metal a few years back to prove a point about gun control. His ammunition was improvised from brass rivets, lead fishing weights and starter pistol ammo. Needless to say he spent some time in jail for his effort, mostly because he did what he did to prove a point and made the plans public.

Tell me, what would be the right way? With the Government spying on everyone and making the revealing of government misconduct illegal, the only way to “whistle blow” is to break the “law”.
We have gotten to the point where the “law” is whatever the government feels would suit their interests. They define the “law”, and the “enemy”.

The comments of the reporter are particularly telling “the rifle he used was very heavily restricted in California”. Didn’t seem to matter to the criminal who wanted one.
U.S. Attorney: Anti-Muslim Speech Could Be a Civil Rights Violation

June 1, 2013 at 3:34pm

This statement of an official of the Federal Government of the United States of America is the definition of a violation of Civil Rights. An official of the DoJ makes policy as part of Government to restrict the right of a person to express an opinion of any type is violating the right of that person by “abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press”. Any person who expressed an opinion, no matter how odious such an opinion may be, has not abridged anyone’s right to anything, nor does that person even have the power to do so in most cases.
Only if that person has the power over the other to physically or financially restrain someone from exercising their rights can it be said that they are violating the civil rights of another. Simply insulting them or their religion cannot have that affect. You don’t have the right to be free of insult or hurt feelings.

Confusion Erupts in IRS Hearing After Lois Lerner Tries to Plead the 5th — Watch It All Unfold

In reply to The Big Mick.

The 5th amendment:
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

It simply says you cannot be compelled to witness against yourself. Whether you have done wrong or not is not an issue.

Hollande ran as a Communist, on the Communist Party ticket. I am pretty sure he won France because they wanted a Communist running the place.
