Exactly. If more gun control laws would eliminate this kind of thing, why don't the lefties call on the Israelis to enact more "suicide bomber control" laws? Then that'll disappear as well.

You know, if only it WERE that simple, I'd be the happiest woman alive. But the technology for mayhem will always run ahead of the laws to "control" it - especially if they're not enforced.

What a terrible waste of resources.

And did you notice how the TV coverage of the ATF "Show and Tell" about the TYPE of weapon suspected focused on those nasty looking -- shudder -- "assault rifles," almost completely neglecting the far more accurate bolt action hunting arm???

These stories are typically reported by bubble-headed infobabes who have never even handled a weapon, let alone FIRED one. And an equally ignorant public buys this crap!

If you're going to take ONE SHOT, the weapon of choice is a scoped bolt action rifle with a heavy competition barrel, NOT the nasty looking assault rifle designed for rapid-fire combat situations.

HERE'S ONE SOLUTION! Hey, it worked for Adolph!!

CAMP GUNFREE.
A common sense and historically proven way to keep those dangerous and destructive GUNS out of YOUR life.
MEMBERSHIPS AVAILABLE NOW!
Details below

Concerned about the easy availability of guns in our society?

Alarmed about the "gun nuts" and other freedom wackos the government allows to run loose?

Wish the government would just repeal the Second Amendment and confiscate all the guns because you believe sensible people shouldn't suffer because of some idiotic notion about some antiquated “right?”

While we can't take the guns away from the people, we CAN take the people (or at least SOME of them) away from their guns.

At CAMP GUNFREE, we have created an atmosphere of near-total tranquility where you and your family will experience the benefits of a GUN FREE environment.


The unique main gate at Camp GunFree. Most arriving camp guests never see this view from their comfortable rail cars.

Each of our camps is a gated community designed to keep guns away from camp guests. Firmly enforced security measures ensure that these dangerous and destructive devices are kept outside. Each camp boasts 24 hour, 7 day a week sentries and state-of-the-art enclosure systems, guard dogs, trenches and surveillance equipment to absolutely GUARANTEE that no firearms enter the facility. Rigidly controlled access ensures that no guns can ever be smuggled in.

No cost has been spared to ensure that Camp GunFree remains gun free.

All camp members are given distinctive uniforms to distinguish them from any gun-toting barbarians who might attempt to evade our security measures. Each camp member is also assigned a distinctive ID number to ensure that only the right people are allowed within the camp.


Room and board are provided to each member in exchange for rewarding tasks designed to provide a sense of accomplishment and to demonstrate that large numbers of people CAN exist in a gun violence free community.

Camp members engaged in one of our many fun-filled organized work activities.


The current headlines prompt us to remind you that there has NEVER been a shooting by a student in any of the camp schools and we can GUARANTEE that there never will be!!

For more information, call 1-800-GUNFREE

If all firearms were ballistically fingerprinted, what idiot would use a gun that could be traced to himself.

Watson argued. "The notion that, if we renew this ban then we'll somehow pretend to keep certain guns off the street is really kind of nonsense."

STOP giving them ideas!

Damn, at this rate, the Crime Bill will not only be renewed, it will be altered to flat out ban the items that it affected the manufacture of the first time.

A simple way to get around this ballistic finger printing is to re-barrel your rifle or pistol with an after maket barrel...

Why dont we just label the anti-gunners as traitors for not upholding the constitution, then they can all be hanged...wouldn't want to shoot them, that would give firearms a bad name.

"I suppose we should outlaw murder as well."

-Since that isn't working so well, maybe we should make murder doubly illegal. With two laws for the same crime, no one will be murdered.

Keep in mind that gun control will help establish garage gunsmithing as a leading "cottage industry". This could be very lucrative, indeed!!!! I have several books on the subject already.

? Where will all this end?

When we have the same situation here that they now have in the UK. People like Sarah Brady and McKelvey won't be satisfied until we are in the same boat as the Brits. Total ban on all handguns, and such severe restrictions on long guns that most hunters and target shooters over there are getting rid of their sporting firearms because keeping them isn't worth the expense and hassle. I understand there are some real bargains available over there on fine high-grade English shotguns and rifles.

"An Open Letter to the Maja Rushie...EnviroWhackos Responsible For Anthrax Terror!!"
Posted on 10/17/2001 1:43 PM Eastern by Mudboy Slim

"IMHO, the Anthrax mailings are far more likely to be the handiwork of the anti-American Leftists who make up the Enviro-Whacko Community, including the Effete Elite who comprise the Tenured Class within our American Universities!!!....Yes, my Wise FRiend, I said the Leftists in the Environmental Movement have got to be the Number One Suspects in the ongoing Domestic Terrorism Movement...please allow me explain!! You have always said that Lib'rals are the most hilarious when they are outta Power because they go absolutely crazy and yet can do no damage to this Country. Well, THE LEFT IS MOST DEFINITELY OUT OF POWER and it's driving them to measures that would have been unthinkable just six weeks ago. How do you think the Left feels when they read about Dubyuh's 89%+ Approval Ratings?! Well, on the DemocRATic Underground website, they are going absolutely NUTS!! Dick Cheney is well-advised to be making himself scarce with these deranged LeftistLoonies on the loose...THEY HATE US WITH A PASSION that they could never muster for Osama bin Laden or Saddam Hussein!!!"

Watch for this guy to be killed authorities in the next few days, but a suicide note will reveal him to be a DemonRAT Sympathizer!!

SITYS...MUD

a need for a national ballistics fingerprinting law for all firearms

The ship of dreams has already left port and moved to a point beyond the horizon where reality is no longer visible even in the distance.

Hey Einstein Brady...ever heard of valve-grinding compound ? Figured. One bullet dipped in that...and there go your genius barrel fingerprints. Frauds.

But that won't stand in your way of making more taxmoney jobs for "lawmakers" making more laws instead of enforcing the ones we already have. That would put your friends out of business.
