I’ll just never forget the MSM interview of a small-town Texas Sheriff back when the Brady Bill was being debated. They set him up to look like a big, dumb hick in his ten-gallon hat and bolo tie with his legs kicked up on his desk.
When the reporter asked him how gun control would make his job easier, he drawled “We ain’t got no gun problem down here. Last guy kilt ‘round yere was beat-ta-death with a
rock!”

Unfortunately, as evidenced by people like Mayor Bloomberg, true believers in gun control now have endless amounts of public money to pursue their evil ambitions.

****The Brady Campaign absorbed the Million Mom March in 2001 when that organization’s membership dropped so low as to be no longer self-sustaining.******

For twenty years they were on a roll! People were giving up their guns like never before, as the police would protect them!

Then four aircraft were hijacked by muslims with boxcutters, and when people woke up and saw they were the targets of muslims, they came to their senses real quick and decided that maybe they needed those guns and “assault rifles” for personal protection after all!

[Psalm 144]

They have still done a lot of damage. Brady is still invoked on a daily basis to confiscate firearms from citizens upon the mere ALLEGATION of domestic violence, etc.

Not a damn thing proven, simple accusation.

The 2010 election cycle is still ongoing, but the numbers look no better: So far only $2,500 has been raised and just $4,545 spent.

If that's correct, I believe that the moribund Temperance movement is actually doing better than the Brady campaign.

Now for the big push: repeal of the 1968 GCA.

[AAABEST]

Information provided by the Center for Responsive Politics , and derived from the FEC reports, shows that the Brady Campaign to End Gun Violence - Voter Education PAC, raised an all-time high of over $1.7 million in the 2000 election cycle and distributed over $1.6 million of those funds.

Contrast this to the more recent 2008 election cycle where the PAC raised just over $15,000 and spent just over $54,000.

The 2010 election cycle is still ongoing, but the numbers look no better: So far only $2,500 has been raised and just $4,545 spent.

Browsing through the charts and information at the Center for Responsive Politics shows fewer gun control advocates willing to spend their own money on that agenda. In the 2000 election year cycle 320 individual donors gave a total of $329,996. Contrast that to 2008 where three donors donated a total of $15,000.

So far, for the 2010 election cycle, only one donor has made a single contribution of $2,500.

These figures are absolutely devastating to this organization. They can't buy politicians, create disinformational ads or pay anyone to run anything.

They are - for all intents and purposes - DEAD IN THE WATER.

Neil, this is important enough to post in full. The site is not on the excerpt list. And if I were writing on this subject I would want it out there unexcerpted. Besides, the site is fraught with popups even in a good browers.

Here, allow me.

The tide turns in the battle for gun rights as the Brady Campaign withers away

Michigan State Police report shows about 1 in 43 state residents has a CPL
It’s time to eliminate handgun registration in Michigan
Will a As gun rights activists await the upcoming decision in the McDonald vs. Chicago Supreme Court case, new evidence emerges that, in this post-Heller decision world, the public has soured on the bitter taste of gun control.

The latest evidence of the declining public support for restrictions on gun rights is in the data released today by the Federal Election Commission on the private donations and expenditures of the Brady Campaign to End Gun Violence - Voter Education PAC (Link goes to actual FEC reports).

The Brady Campaign to End Gun Violence is the flagship group for the gun control effort. The Brady Campaign absorbed the Million Mom March in 2001 when that organization’s membership dropped so low as to be no longer self-sustaining.

As the Brady Campaign goes, so does public support for gun control. That’s why the huge drop in funds raised, money spent, and individual donors is so telling.

The conclusion is clear: The public no longer believes the gun control lies. Now is the time to work to get that message to the government by redoubling efforts to elect pro-gun candidates and kick out those politicians who would deny us our basic human rights.

“The Brady Campaign absorbed the Million Mom March in 2001 when that organization’s membership dropped so low as to be no longer self-sustaining.”

Correction: the Million Mom March liquidated after I personally broke its back by sending columnist J.R. Labbe information on its misuse of 501(c)(3) tax exempt money to support political campaigns. http://www.stentorian.com/2ndamend/mmm/ for details. (Pro-2nd Amendment activists Jim March and Najda Adolf delivered the coup de grace to the MMM in 2001.)

http://www.stentorian.com/2ndamend/mmm/form990.html for the MMM’s highly creative Form 990 tax return to the IRS. I recall sending this information to the IRS as well, and it is quite possible that the MMM liquidated to avoid the alternative of being publicly stripped of its 501(c)(3) status for misconduct.

It's good to see these unamerican bastards suffer. Schadenfreude, comrades, schadenfreude.

However, don't forget that the Marxists currently occupying the White House are moving forward with their efforts to nullify our Constitutional liberties via U.N. treaty.

Like all good totalitarians, the goal never changes, just the mechanisms.

“Gun owners might not feel besieged right now, but they should be very concerned. [Recently] the Obama administration announced its support for the UN Small Arms Treaty. This treaty poses real risks for freedom and safety in the United States as well as the rest of the world. According to the U.N., guns used in armed conflicts cause 300,000 deaths worldwide every year. Their proposed solution is a simple one. Keep rebels from getting guns by requiring that countries ‘prevent, combat and eradicate’ what those countries define as ‘the illicit trade in small arms.’ The UN’s solution isn’t too surprising when one looks at the long list of notorious totalitarian regimes, such as Syria, Cuba, Rwanda, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, and Sierra Leone, which support these ‘reforms.’ But not all insurgencies are ‘bad.’ To ban providing guns to rebels in totalitarian countries is like arguing that there is never anything such as a just war. ... Political scientist Rudy Rummel estimates that 262 million people were murdered by their own government during the last century — that is 2.6 million per year. This includes genocide, the murder of people for political reasons, and mass murder. Even if all 300,000 deaths from armed conflicts can be blamed on the small arms trade, an obviously false claim, people have much more to worry about from their governments. ... The Small Arms Treaty is just a back door way for the Obama administration trying to force through gun control regulations. With the huge standing ovation that House and Senate Democrats recently gave Mexican President Calderon for his advocacy of a new so-called ‘Assault Weapons Ban,’ Americans who care about self-defense have been put on notice.” —economist John Lott

First Ambassador Thus, then, in few.
Your highness, lately sending into Washington,
Did claim some certain privileges, in the right
Of your great predecessors, the Founding Fathers
In answer of which claim, Rosie O’Donnell our mistress
Says that you savour too much of your youth,
And bids you be advised there’s nought in America
That can be with a nimble galliard won;
You cannot own a gun and, if you do, you should go to jail.
She therefore sends you, meeter for your spirit,
This tun of treasure; and, in lieu of this,
Desires you let the Second Amendment rights that you claim
Hear no more of you. This Rosie O’Donnell speaks.

KING HENRY V What treasure, uncle?

EXETER Tennis-balls and trigger locks, my liege.

KING HENRY V We are glad Rosie O’Donnell is so pleasant with us;
Her present and your pains we thank you for:
When we have march’d our rackets to these balls,
We will, in Washington, by God’s grace, play a set
Shall strike the entire gun control movement into the hazard.
Tell her she hath made a match with such a wrangler
That all the courts of HCI will be disturb’d
With chaces.
And tell the pleasant witch* this mock of hers
Hath turn’d her balls to political gun-stones; and her soul
Shall stand sore charged for the wasteful vengeance
That shall fly with them: for many a thousand votes
Shall this her mock mock out of the Democrat Left
Mock pols from their offices, mock the entire gun control movement down;
And some are yet ungotten and unborn
That shall have cause to curse Rosie O’Donnell’s scorn.
But this lies all within the will of God,
To whom I do appeal; and in whose name
Tell you Donna Dees-Thomases I am coming on,
To venge me as I may and to put forth
My rightful hand in a well-hallow’d cause.
So get you hence in peace; and tell Ms. O’Donnell
Her jest will savour but of shallow wit,
When thousands weep more than did laugh at it.
Convey them with safe conduct. Fare you well.

We should immediately disarm about 45% of the American population. All registered Democrats should have any and all of their firearms confiscated, stat.

It's for the children.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[Pessimist]

Hard to believe those figures. I wonder if they operate under a different name as well or something like that. Or maybe their simply lying.

Anyway, I’ll take the good new wherever I can get it!

And the gun news has been pretty consistently good.

I wonder if this has to do with Obama getting elected. Gun ownership has skyrocketed. Nowadays many more non owners at least know someone who does own a gun.

That might reduce their fear when they see that gun owners are “normal people” after all.

[ZULU]

This is good news.

Not only should the pro-Second Amendment groups turn up the heat on the anti-gun movement, we MUST focus on the First Amendment also.

They are all intertwined.

The anti-gunners as well as all other leftists are now focused on controlling the Internet, forums like this one, and talk radio. They KNOW that by losing control of the public forum ( fewer and fewer people are getting their information from the Mainstream Drive By Media, See-BS and other TV news sources) they are losing the debate.
