I called and asked where the cartoons of Muslims with rags on their heads and blowing up people and buildings were. Of course they had no answer.
You make a logical point. However, if the bullet "fingerprinting" law was to pass, every replacement barrel would no doubt be included. We would have a larger ATF army than now to be sure you "comply" with the law. Sound like fun yet?
We've got to kill this monster (proposed law) now.
I suppose there are a few new members of the public that were born recently enough (i.e., yesterday) that they haven't already heard these tired old tunes.
I wonder if the media will pick this up? Lately, they haven't been playing ball the way they used to. Maybe this will embolden them again, after the last backlash against the Marxist "Big Three" gun-ban-friendly networks helped boost Fox News and cut leftist market share.
I'm sure the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy will have fun with this one on the talk-radio circuit, if no one else will bite.
The poor hack that spewed forth that sorry study in juvenile caricature clearly has issues that require professional treatment.
Demoheh heh !!cnrats
The smartest thing business owners -- from banks to grocery stores to gas stations to restaurants to phone, gas and electric utility companies -- could do is refuse to sell any goods and services to politicians and bureaucrats.
We know who those few thousand criminals are and how they hide behind feigned compassion and the veil of government.
Every person has a right to know what their tax dollars are being used for. Perhaps a business owner disagrees with a politician's voting record in congress. The business owner is already paying the politicians salary. The business owner, say for example, a restaurant owner, would not want to feed a man who is picking his pocket via congress.
Business owners earn their power and prosperity. Politicians and bureaucrats usurp that earned power and prosperity.
An ostracism matrix can render the most destructive criminals powerless so the power is reverted back to the rightful business owner.
I'll bet the cartoons showing Planned Parenthood running Nazi death camps were missing too. Must be just a clerical oversight.
From the very beginning of the sniper attacks, I had a gut feeling that the end result would be to take away our guns. I wonder if they will even take away shotguns from people living in rural Alaska who may have to defend themselves against bears. At least we won't have to defend ourselves from roaming gangs of thugs who will have all the guns, besides law enforcement types that is.
Only because it has never been about gun control but about gun confiscation.
I will however admit that since the ban of assault weapons with bayonet lugs, I haven't heard of any drive-by bayonetings.
With the liberal press playing the hunting/sniper rifle similarity card with every article, I would not be surprised at all if this murderer in Maryland were a member of PETA.
DITTOS
Maybe if they just put up signs that said "Maryland is a gun free state" that would help. < /sarcasm >
"The shootings are going on in an area that is notorious for having 'victim-disarmament laws,'" said Aaron Zelman, executive director of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership. "This whole situation shows the failure of gun-control schemes, with their false promise of, 'Government will protect you, and you will be safer.'"
On Thursday, a group of House Democrats asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the marketing of military-type sniper rifles to civilians, noting those kinds of weapons could be involved in the sniper attacks.
"Their accuracy and range capabilities make these weapons among the most dangerous available today," the lawmakers led by Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., said in a letter to the FTC. "They can hit targets accurately one mile away and can inflict damage to targets up to four miles away."
Conyers and three other Democrats said sniper weapons are different than standard hunting rifles because they are designed to strike a target at a distance.
Conyers is dumber than a sack of hair.
