"Ballistic fingerprinting" is worthless if you clean your gun the first time with a steel brush instead of a bronze one - and similarly monkey with the extractor and firing pin.
FWIW, only three types of politicians are pushing antigun politics now: 1) desperate ones looking for a "Hail Mary" chance, 2) ones long antigun extremists, and 3) ones firmly in antigun districts. Even Hillary and Schumer are avoiding it after the 2000 election debacle antigun politics brought their party. Nobody in Red Nation is pushing it.
So, what do we have:
1. Borders left Open
2. Amnesty Being Pushed
3. Constitutional Rights Under Attack
4. UN given control of US war policy through resolutions
5. Al Quaeda Trained at US Flight Schools and military bases.
6. Cover-ups and government abuses during Oklahoma City, Ruby Ridge, Waco, Pearl Harbor, Gulf of Tonkin
7. Tracking Devices proposed to weed out terrorists from the general population, via DARPA.
8."Free Trade" continuing to be promoted by President Bush, even though it's causing our jobs to be shipped elsewhere.
9. Pre-emptive war strategy, totally against what America is about, given hard core evidence hasn't been obtained.
10. Bush's propping up and support for the UN, WTO, as well as the EU.
11. Colored money and talks of the elimination of the dollar.
12. The Push for hemispheric government in the Americas, while the EU expands into Eastern Europe, another arm of the trilateral commission?
13. Police in ski-masks? Cameras going up?
14. Bush referring to the Mexican border as "The New Frontier".
15. Taliban and Al Quaeda members escorted out of Afghanistan as Kandihar fell?
16.Reports that Iraq is not a threat, them claiming that they'll go along with inspections, yet that's not good enough?
17. No middle easterner names on the flight lists.
18.Bio Weapons given to Iraq in the 80s.
19. CIA's "confidential" information regarding September 11.
20.US selling super computers and nuclear weapons to China and North Korea.
21.David Schippers, ex governmental employee, FBI I believe, who stated that there were talks of airliners flying into the world trade center years prior to the attack.
22.Why did building number seven collapse if it was not hit by an airline?
23. Bush insisting on full control over the "War on Terror", in which he got in a bill, of course subject to the UN at times.
24.Kyoto Protocol encoded within National Security Act
25.No call for withdrawal from the UN, despite their nightmarish talks, including euthanasia. Instead, the contrary is what is happening.
26. Radar during those tragic flights?
27. Talks about Marshall law and camps if the US is attacked by nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons.
28. Didn't the US help put Hussein in power, and didn't the US supply him with goods in the 80s to fight the Iranians?
29.Press Reports of which even the DOD doesn't appear certain that there are links between Al Quaeda and Iraq, not to mention that Iraq is developing chemical, nuclear, and biological weapons. (Possible, but do not many nations have many of these same weapons, including China which forces abortions on the populace?)
30.What about these, "This War may last a hundred years", and "an attack is imminent" or "Brace for an attack". How do they know this?
31.FBI report labeling Christians, defenders of the second amendment and Constitutionalists as domestic terrorists.
Does something look wrong with this picture?
SSDD!
Actually, I doubt they will. They use Handgun Control and a few lib editorial boards to send up trial ballons. I think most Americans will react with revulsion at their crappy attempts to link the NRA to the sniper. The Dems may be jerks, but they ain't stupid - they aren't about to climb aboard a political Hindenburg once they realize it has caught fire...
Anti-gun Candidates Exploit Beltway Sniper
Anti-gun politicians are scrambling to benefit from the Beltway sniper.
Just one day after vowing to avoid the gun issue as long as the sniper is loose, Maryland gubernatorial nominee Kathleen Kennedy Townsend proved herself a liar by shipping a new ad to Washington TV stations that reviles her GOP opponent for voting against a ban on so-called "assault weapons."
"In the 30-second ad, which is scheduled to begin airing today, the camera pans over an array of militaristic-looking rifles, then cuts to a man pulling a handgun out of his front pocket," the Washington Post reported today.
An announcer tells viewers that Republican Robert Ehrlich Jr. "voted against banning assault weapons and cheap handguns" and received an F grade from the almighty Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
'Shameful'
"We've got a killer on the loose, we have funerals taking place, and she and her campaign have decided to put that to use for their political gain. It's shameful," Ehrlich campaign spokesman Paul Schurick told the Post.
Townsend's campaign says it rolled out the issue after left-of-center Rep. Constance Morella, R-Md., began airing a radio ad in Montgomery County in which anti-gun activist Sarah Brady hails Morella for "stand[ing] up to the gun lobby." What that has to do with the gubernatorial campaign is a mystery: Morella is not running against Townsend.
Although the Maryland suburbs' anti-firearms laws have done nothing to stop the gunman, pundits say the sniper attacks could propel the foundering Townsend into the governor's mansion in Annapolis.
Maryland's two left-wing Democrat senators, Second Amendment opponents Paul Sarbanes and Barbara Mikulski, have been milking the crisis for photo opportunities.
Another anti-gun pol, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., wants the Federal Trade Commission to investigate and stop the sale of "military" rifles to Americans.
"There is no legitimate purpose for a military rifle than to make war," Conyers said Thursday. "There is no reason these rifles should be marketed to civilians."
And of course, the anti-Second Amendment organizations are having a feeding frenzy.

There is nothing wrong with this picture. You are merely stringing together a number of FACTS. However, it is in the stating of the truth that you will become subject to the ridicule of the police/media state and labeled as a wearer of tinfoil hats. Denouncing disidents is at least as old as Stalin.
