Guns for Christmas by Jennifer Freeman Santa baby, slip a shotgun under the tree, for me I've been an awful good girl Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight Guns for Christmas! Oops! I think I just said a bad word, but I'm not sure what it was. But seriously, firearms and firearm accessories are very nice gifts for Christmas or any other occassion. It's the kind of gift that most people don't think about largely because the firearm industry does not advertise on television or in the mainstream media. So while everyone is being bombarded with ads from...

    First things first, I have to praise God for an answer to prayer...   During the third and final presidential debate, John Kerry, on the topic of the sunsetting of the "assault weapons" ban, said something that made my head want to explode: "And most of the law enforcement agencies in America wanted that assault weapons ban. They don't want to go into a drug bust and be facing an AK-47. I was hunting in Iowa last year with a sheriff from one of the counties there, and he pointed to a house in back of us, and said, "See the...

International terrorists who have experienced a measured degree of success in Spain, Germany, and France, are in for a rude awakening when it comes to the United States. Unlike many European countries, whose culture and people are on the brink of extinction as a result of passive intellectualism, Americans are more than willing to stand up to terrorists in order to preserve our individualism and our liberties. We are a nation born of rebels who have fought and won wars not only to preserve our own liberties, but to preserve the liberties of other nations as well. One might even...

  California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, has recently reaffirmed his support for a federal ban on the private ownership of semi-automatic rifles, commonly known as the "Assault Weapons" ban. There was much debate and speculation about Schwarzenegger's position on firearms ownership prior to his being elected. This was primarily due to the fact that there was very little public information about his position on firearms. Californians were left to speculate about whether The Terminator -- the alpha male who made millions of dollars making movies in which characters used semi-automatic rifles to defend themselves -- was actually Mr. Shriver, a...

>> ATF NIGHT is pleased to present Libertarian Party Presidential Candidate > Aaron Russo Thursday, April 15, 2004 Cocktail Hour: 6:30 pm Dinner and Presentation: 7:30 pm San Gennaro Cafe 9535 Culver Blvd., Culver City, CA >"Many of my friends like to say -- and I tend to agree with them -- that the Second Amendment should have been the First Amendment. It is upon the right to keep and bear arms that all our other rights depend. A right that we're not able or allowed to defend is no right at all." --- Aaron >The 3rd Thursday evening of...

The "Assault Weapons" Scamby Jennifer Freeman   "The semi-automatic weapons' menacing looks, coupled with the public's confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons — anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun — can only increase that chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons." — Josh Sugarman, 1988, Violence Policy Center.  By 1988, gun banners had finally figured out that Americans were not going surrender their firearms willingly. The only way they were going to achieve their goal of total disarmament was through mass dissemination of misinformation and...

"If you continue to do what you've always done, you'll continue to get what you've always got!" As Patriots and supporters of the Constitution and especially the Second Amendment, aren't we all tired of fighting an uphill battle just attempting to limit the erosion of our rights? We spend our time and treasure burning ourselves out, not working at EXPANDING our Rights, but just trying to stem the damage done by those working to destroy our Rights. Perhaps it's time for us to try a new approach; an aggressive approach in which we go on the OFFENSE, aimed at FULLY...
