End the DROS and end licensing of FFLs. Buy guns over the counter at hardware stores like pre-1968 (pre-1934 if I had my way). No more 4473 forms. Nothing. But the BATFE out of business.

The Second Amendment, and the REASON it was put into the Bill of Rights to begin with, has the socialists scared to death....

Stand up for the rights of homeless firearms! Execute anyone using one of these disenfranchised guns in a crime!

The purpose of the Second Amendment is to protect the other amendments.

Yes, and as an afterthought, maybe it should have been the First Amendment :-)

according to a new study by a gun control group.

Stop right there. It is all lies and propaganda.

The quote from Admiral Yamamoto (of the Japanese Imperial Fleet, at the planning of their attack on Pearl Harbor) most aptly illustrates the purpose of the 2nd Amendment: “It is impossible to invade America. There would be a gun behind every blade of grass.”

Of course, if Obama and other Bolsheviks get their way, that would change.

i find this hard to believe.

gun shop owners paid for the guns,

so i doubt that they’d allow them to leave their inventories unpaid.

...as you should just about anything printed on that bird-cage liner. It's just more socialist propaganda - another hit-piece on our Constitutional Rights.

We all know that Sarah Brady, like Cindy Sheehan, is using the misfortune of a loved one to further their leftist agenda.

Just like Mark Twain said.....”There are liars, damned liars, and...the Brady Campaign.”

Stop right there. It is all lies and propaganda.

Even the rebuttals from both the NRA and BATFE?

Any way, letting the Brady Bunch spew their nonsense should help motivate RKBA types to vote effectively against the left in November. When so many are saying they will stay home or throw their vote away because of McCain's imperfections, they need to be reminded. The left kept pretty mum about gun control in 2006, and they took both Houses in Congress back. So what does the admin moderator do? The story was removed from the frontpage sidebar.

“No one in America should place any faith in any alleged study coming from the Brady campaign,” said Andrew Arulanandam, a spokesman for the N.R.A.

Works for me. BTT.

Aren’t there something on the order of 5 MILLION firearms traded and sold each year? .007% loss? These guys need to teach Wal-Mart a few tricks.
