Staggering Around the Truth

“Every gun sold without a completed background check poses a potential risk,” said Rob Wilcox, federal legal director for the gun control advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety. “And these staggering numbers show that we have a serious problem.” [More]

No, the serious problem would be if you could demonstrate the resultant carnage directly produced by this. The fact that you haven’t even cited one (I don’t count Sutherland Springs because time was not a factor, the Air Force withholding information that would have never shown up was), yet according to this there have been over a million “opportunities,” points to the whole purpose of this transparent propaganda piece being to gin up a hysterical demand for more controls on you and me and fewer restraints on government power.

And then they explain “the Charleston Loophole”:

The shooter had admitted to drug possession during a prior arrest, which made it illegal for him to buy or own a gun.

Anybody see Word One about Hunter Biden in all this fine “reporting”?

What else aren’t we told about? You’d think the National Institute of Justice’s 2013 “Summary of Select Firearm Violence Prevention Strategies” would at least rate a mention:

Universal background checks … Effectiveness depends on the ability to reduce straw purchasing, requiring gun registration …

No? What else would we expect from NBC News?

Survey Says…

Most gun owners favor modest restrictions but deeply distrust government, poll finds [More]

And of course, no such article would be complete without an exploitable word from a conveniently useful Fudd:

“As a gun owner myself, both pistols and hunting rifles, I feel that it’s important that background checks, red flag laws and raising the age should be something that we as a country should be doing,” said poll respondent Christopher Montes of Connecticut.

You’re a real f-ing idiot, aren’t you Chris?

What Can Brown Do to You?

UPS issues new rules for shipping firearm parts – serial numbers now required – UPS demanding compliance with new federal rule that’s not in effect. [More]

Democrat Senators extorting compliance not with laws, not with rules, but with their wishes, is naked, in-your-face tyranny.

Not standing up to that is naked, in-your-face cowardice, that is, the face of most of today’s corporate America.

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

Libertarian Party of California Demands California Attorney General Held Accountable for Gun Owner’s Data Breach [More]

Good luck with that in an irreversibly Democrat state, turned that way over the last 30 years by the very thing you guys advocate:

3.4 Free Trade and Migration

We support the removal of governmental impediments to free trade. Political freedom and escape from tyranny demand that individuals not be unreasonably constrained by government in the crossing of political boundaries. Economic freedom demands the unrestricted movement of human as well as financial capital across national borders.

Well, we know what that ensures.

Care to take the challenge?

None Dare Call It Treason

California’s New Gun Control Law Designed To Bankrupt The Gun Industry [Watch]

Colion Noir expands on the latest Golden State gun and speech grab.

The ambitious Newsom can get away with that with an industry basically comprised of rope-welling capitalists.

And as Edwin Vieira Jr. noted in Kolbe v. Hogan:

This reliance on a permanent private market for firearms guaranteed that most militiamen, through their own efforts, could always obtain firearms suitable for both collective and individual self-defense, and forestalled tyranny by precluding rogue public officials from monopolizing the production, distribution, and possession of firearms.

The wannabe totalitarians are engaging in more than tyranny. Deliberately undermining “the security of a free State” is treason.

‘Investing’ in Astroturf

The Giffords PAC is using Congress’ bipartisan gun deal to fuel ads supporting Democrats and attacking Republicans who voted against it. [More]

They’ll pick races where they think it will be close, so gun owners who live in those states and districts are responsible for knowing what the score is with their reps and making sure good deeds don’t get punished.

Hey, I see they’re backing the guy who shot [pulled a gun on] an unarmed black jogger and the guy who obstructed a police investigation into child abuse! Nice to know the quality of the company they keep remains consistent.

You are Cordially Invited to an Old-Fashioned Struggle Session to Confess Your Crimes

The chair of the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Reform on Thursday said she has requested that CEOs of three gun manufacturing companies appear before Congress to testify at a hearing later this month on gun violence. [More]

Carolyn Maloney is the head inquisitor?

“Requested” not “summoned”? I’d tell her I’ll show up right after the Republicans get another crack at Eric Holder.

Actually, I’d probably just send her a goatse link (and if you don’t know what that is, do yourself a favor and don’t look it up, or if you have to, add the word “Wiki” to your search).

The War on Drugs and Guns Crossover

Collateral Damage: Arizona drug dealers becoming arms dealers online [Watch]

Anybody know what the legal and jurisdictional provisions with ATF are for the cop to retain possession of an illegally modified gun to fire and hand off to the reporter?

The other thought that strikes: You could give such a gun to me and anyone in my circle of friends and relatives and there would be zero chance of us doing anything predatory with it.

The final thought that strikes: I’d like to see somebody try that mod with a .45 🙂
