The end of Bump stocks in Florida . . . and a few other unexpected things: Let's have a round of applause for Governor Rick Scott, and House Speaker Richard Corcoran for all their marvelous efforts in sending Florida into an anti-gun frenzy.  Both, are primarily responsible for getting some of the most severe anti-gun provisions in twenty years passed in Florida.  Remember them kindly when they run for their next office.  (not)  And by the way,   I warned you all about Gov. Scott way back during the Zimmerman case -- that he was really not pro-gun, but just a...

Link to spreadsheet only: Who Voted For The Florida Gun Bill

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — UPDATE (6:15 p.m.): The National Rifle Association has filed a federal lawsuit over gun control legislation Florida Gov. Rick Scott has signed, saying it violates the Second Amendment by raising the age to buy guns from 18 to 21. The lawsuit came just hours after Gov. Scott, a Republican, signed the compromise bill Friday afternoon. Lawyers for the NRA want a federal judge to block the new age restriction from taking effect. The new legislation raises the minimum age to buy rifles from 18 to 21, extends a three-day waiting period for handgun purchases to include...

During a panel discussion on Fox News’ The Kelly File this evening, host Megyn Kelly wondered what the fallout would be if acting DNC head Donna Brazile were a member of the GOP when she purportedly provided Hillary Clinton with debate questions while she was at CNN. Fox News contributor Richard Fowler said one of the bigger issues that should be discussed is how Brazile got these questions from the network. He then attempted to pivot the conversation to Donald Trump, stating that he is constantly putting his foot in his mouth, taking the attention away from these controversies. Kelly...

A great interview with Nigel Farage the day after he spoke at the Trump rally in Mississippi back in August. Farage speaks about the polls regarding the Brexit vote and how, right up to the morning of the vote, all the polls had Brexit losing by at least 10 points. Farage reminds Trump supporters to ignore the polls and vote. Watch the video and pass it around to those who are getting worried about the BS polls. It is the best 6 minutes you'll spend these last few days before the election. Nigel Farage on Varney

How long does this take? Started updating at 10:00 am today. It is now 3:00 pm and I'm at the gray screen with the spinning dots. It already did the 'percent' screen and several restarts. Just wondering how much longer.

I see and hear a lot of talk about how a national gun registration and/or confiscation would be the trigger that would spark a second American Revolution, as patriots rise up to resist the jackbooted thugs who are going door-to-door taking away people’s arms. I have bad news for everyone who’s waiting for national registration or a mass confiscation so they can get their armed rebellion on: a national database of gun owners already exists, and a national confiscation effort will never happen. Ever. Instead, you’ll hand over your firearms peacefully. All of them, even the ones you paid cash...

"Fratricide"is my middle name. When my mortar explodes in my hand.. Allahu Akbar! When my buddy point blanks me with an anti air heavy machine gun... Allahu Akbar! When I am so incredibly stupid as a result of uncountable generations of inbreeding that the simple process of aiming my rifle is too complicated for me to fathom...Allahu Akbar! God may be great, but it's painfully obvious that he doesn't think a whole lot of you clowns. Video at link

Taking 12ga to a whole new level of destruction. 12ga slugs have been rightly known as good stoppers on dangerous game, but tend to over-penetrate in hominids. OATH Ammunition has two new designs that solve over-penetration along with greatly improving reliability in box-fed shotguns. Above is their 1.25oz 1600fps all-copper slug designed to expand to an incredible 2.5" and penetrate just enough to punch through a hostile human with little energy left to harm anyone downrange. If you've ever heard the expression: "a hole big enough to toss a cat through," consider that cats can fit any opening larger than...

Law requires stores to verify carry license or turn them away.More laws, more problems. That's always the way it is. The more rules you have, the more trouble it is for everyone. And in this case, stores like Wal-Mart are reportedly bearing the brunt. Texas recently began allowing open carry of handguns by folks who are licensed for concealed carry, and naturally, some folks are doing just that. But that creates a problem for retailers who sell alcoholic beverages such as beer and wine. Apparently, Texas has a law that dictates that any business selling alcolohic beverages cannot "knowingly allow"...

ST. CLOUD, Fla. - Police in St. Cloud said a woman mistook her daughter for an intruder, fatally shooting her late Tuesday night. According to police, the homeowner fired one round at the subject, who was later identified as the homeowner's 27-year-old daughter. The victim was taken to Osceola Regional Hospital, where she later succumbed to her injuries. "It's shocking, I tell you that much," said neighbor Harry Morris. St. Cloud police officials said they aren't releasing the names of the mother or daughter since a person in their household is in law enforcement and Florida law permits the withholding...

On January 1, 2016, Texas will become the next state to allow licensed citizens to openly carry a handgun, this after Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law earlier this year that would allow Texans to open carry. As is case with most similar laws, open carry in Texas will have some restrictions, as private businesses will have the right to ban people from flashing their weapon within their individual places of business. Florida is right behind Texas. The father and son legislative duo of Sen. Don Gaetz (R) and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R) have both sponsored open...
