Gun Control is Sweeping the Nation

So much so that the Joyce Puppet ICHV is closing their Springfield office and cutting staff.

Odd. One would think with all the alleged public support for gun control, an economic dip wouldn't effect them as much as it has. Unless of course the majority of their support doesn't come from grassroots but political advocacy groups.

Oh wait.

How do you search for what antigun groups got funding? I looked for CeasefireNJ and found nothing, unless I did in fact do it right.

Thanks for the link. I checked it out, they funded nothing to CeasefireNJ, but they did give $330k to CeasefirePA in 2010, of which Bryan Miller is a part of, and I didn't see anything paid to Freedom States Alliance in 2010, which Miller is also a part of, so I guess Miller must be getting fat on ramen noodles, and peanut butter & jelly sandwiches.

But since this funds were given out in December, I'm thinking it's towards their 2011 budget, with possible bumps in the summer.

Plus VPC got $500k for doing google research.

But there's the odd ball recipients like Media Matters, I know they're just a shill group for the left, but I wonder if they would funnel money to other anti gun psychotics.
