Thomas Sowell: Fact-Free Crusades
Cracking down on law-abiding citizens. Amid all the heated, emotional advocacy of gun control, have you ever heard even one person present convincing hard evidence that tighter gun control laws have in fact reduced murders? Think about all the states, communities within states, as well as foreign countries, that have either tight gun control laws ... MORECharles C. W. Cooke: A Tax On Freedom
High taxes on guns and ammo punish the law-abiding. ‘I’m not asking to take away people’s guns,” Maryland legislator Jon Cardin nervously told Politico this week. “I’m just saying that for an activity that is relatively dangerous, obviously, people who participate in that activity should pay the full costs of that activity.” America, witness a ... MOREDave Kopel: Turning Gun Owners Into Felons
Spouse can't even borrow gun for over 7 days. Public-opinion polls about “universal background checks” for gun sales show widespread support. While President Obama and Mayor Bloomberg talk about “gun sales,” the actual legislation moving through Congress aims to regulate far more than sales. It would turn almost every gun owner into a ... MOREDHS Explains Plans To Buy 1.6 Billion Rounds Of Ammo
It is all about saving taxpayer money. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has responded to a letter dated November 13, 2012 from Senator Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) regarding the agency's ammunition purchases. Sen. Coburn published the response on the U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs ... MORETim Brown: Ignorance & Mismanagement At DHS
Fast and Furious report is revealing. As Homeland Secretary Janet “Big Sis” Napolitano faces mounting pressure to answer for DHS’ large solicitations and purchases of ammunition over the past year, the second of two reports looking at who is to blame in the gunrunning scheme known as Operation Fast and Furious is painting DHS ... MORETim Feran: Fear Of New Gun Laws Stokes Run On Ammo
In preparation for government tyranny. Gun owners are having a hard time reloading lately as a spike in ammunition sales has stripped shelves bare in shops across the country. “We’ve been out for a month, and we have no idea when any is coming in,” said David Tait of Ohio Valley Outdoors in Lancaster. “People want to come in, and we just don’t ... MORETracie Cone: Bill Would Ban Lead Ammunition In California
Inmates are running the asylum. Environmentalists are pushing legislation to ban lead ammunition in California to prevent toxins from poisoning scavengers that eat animal remains left by hunters. Final language of the bill was introduced Monday by Assembly Member Anthony Rendon,
D-Lakewood, who said the legislation would remove a ... MORERalph Benko: DHS To Aquire 1.6 Billion Rounds Of Ammo
Just what is the Obama regime up to? The Denver Post, on February 15th, ran an Associated Press article entitled Homeland Security aims to buy 1.6b rounds of ammo, to far too little notice. It confirmed that the Department of Homeland Security has issued an open purchase order for 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition. As elsewhere reported, ... MOREDHS To Purchase Almost 3,000 Tanks For Use In America
This is getting a little creepy. According to one estimate, since last year the Department of Homeland Security has stockpiled more than 1.6 billion bullets, mainly .40 caliber and 9mm. DHS also purchased 2,717 Mine Resistant Armor Protected Vehicles (MRAP). Modern Survival Blog reported: The Department of Homeland Security (through ... MOREAll You Need To Know About "Assault Rifles"
Scare terms and reality. There are many articles
on the internet where people can learn the origins of the term “assault
rifle”, so I won’t go into that here. Nor will I get into the topic of
gun control effectiveness. Larry Correia has done such a good job here that anything I add would be redundant. “You keep using that word. I don’t think it means what ... MOREJohn Harvey: Trusting Your Own Government (Or Not)
The masters who pose as servants. Earlier this month, Geraldo Rivera asked a caller: "How could you not trust your own government?" Putting aside big and little episodes of untrustworthy government in the history of this country like the Trail of Tears, the internment of Americans of Japanese descent, Kent State, Waco, ... MOREEmily Miller: The Cop-Killer Bullet Myth
Going after ammunition to get your guns. Give the administration credit for its creativity. The theatrical show President Obama and Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr.
are putting on in their effort to foist gun control on the public
disguises a more subtle push to disarm America in the name of protecting
cops. On Monday, Mr. Obama invited police ... MOREThomas Sowell: Do Gun Control Laws Control Guns?
They do not control crime. The gun control controversy is only the latest of many issues to be debated almost solely in terms of fixed preconceptions, with little or no examination of hard facts. Media discussions of gun control are dominated by two factors: the National Rifle Association and the Second Amendment. But the over-riding ... MOREAaron Klein: Homeland Security Is Hoarding Ammo
Scarcity created for everyone else. Will the U.S. soon face a critical situation in which the federal government– primarily the Department of Homeland Security – possesses an ammunition surplus while local and state authorities face ammunition shortages and backlogs in purchasing more rounds? Current trends could find the federal government with a ... MORESusan Duclos: Online Ammunition Suppliers
Time to stock up. With conflicting accounts as to whether Wal-Mart is putting off the restocking of ammunition after their meetings with the Obama administration and many local gun and ammo suppliers simply running out of ammunition after a massive surge in sales, it seemed prudent to gather a few sources for ammunition from online. ... MOREAssault Rifles, Ammo Flying Off Shelves After Newtown
Citizens race to beat the ban. Gun enthusiasts have been stocking up in the wake of the Newtown, Conn., elementary school massacre
– flocking to gun shows to get their hands on parts and weapons out of
fear that lawmakers will take a harder stance on gun control in the
coming year. The phones at gun shops across the country have been ringing off ... MOREPeople Are Buying Guns And Ammo For A Reason
by Neil Snyder. It's 2:00 a.m. You are at home in your bed sound asleep. Your wife is sleeping beside you, and your children are asleep in their rooms down the hall. The muffled sound of a window breaking interrupts your slumber. You're groggy and you wonder if it was just a dream, so you lie there quietly and listen. A few seconds later, you hear other ... MORE
