CCW Anecdotes and Gun Show Weekend

Attended a talk today where a local police officer was a speaker. He unquestioningly and unequivocally supported CCW including in public buildings.  He stated flat out that he believed if an administrator or teacher had had a firearm at Sandy Hook, the death toll would have been reduced.  As I'm considered the local 'gun nut', several other attendees ('luke warm' on firearms) asked me later about what exactly is going on w/ Illinois and CCW and how the different laws work.

When I got home, the CiC told me that one of her co-workers (along w/ another woman right after) had been accosted this morning by a doped up guy who had 'scored some pills' and 'wanted to score a fifth of liquor', becoming violently enraged when told she didn't have any booze to give him.  She adamantly wished she was allowed to protect herself.  Instead, people like Ladd Everitt, Joan Peterson and Elliot Fineman would much prefer this had happened.  Luckily, there was a security guard (and retired police officer) who was nearby that tackled the guy.

Currently have the hippie-mobile loaded up for the gunshow in Effingham, IL this weekend. With everything that's been going on, it should be an interesting time.

Talk About Low Hanging Fruit

Miguel slaps Elliot Fineman of the NG(V)AC around on another one of (Elliot's) fantasy posts.

 I would wonder how Fineman must feel knowing the last major thing he did in his life is a absolute failure but he lives in such a fantasy world he probably still thinks the Starbucks boycott is still ongoing and that there are 14 million members of his organization.

Tonsillitis Leads to Newly Minted Gun Nut

Huh? How exactly does that work?  How does a sore throat have anything to do w/ firearms? 

Well it doesn't.  That's the point

Some parents (non-gun owners) take their teenager in for a checkup, etc.  Doctors/staff start grilling the kid on his grades, family life and..... whether the family owns guns. 

Mom's response?
Mary Rita Insley, newly sensitized to gun issues, has since applied for a Firearm Owner's Identification Card. But here's what bothers her.
"If I purchase a gun, am I then supposed to train my children to lie for fear of the government knowing I have guns?" she asked.
 Welcome to the gun control debate Ms. Insley.  Welcome to anti-gun fanatics considering you a danger to yourself and your family w/o any evidence whatsoever.

They Breed Politicians and Criminals (Redundancy Alert) Stupid in Chicago

Ald Willie Cochran (20th) is a former police officer and shows why Chicago crime is so high
 Ald. Willie Cochran (20th), a former police officer, has suggested that global positioning system chips be embedded in new guns, and retrofitted on existing firearms, so they could be located if they go missing.
“Just like if your car gets stolen, OnStar can tell you where your car is. If your gun gets stolen, and you report it, we should be able to find that gun,” he said.
 Yeah, he really is this stupid. Howabout this.  I'll accept that technology when it becomes standard issue on all CPD firearms.

Oh, but he gets even stupider, showing that he positively failed his Early American History class in HS (or maybe he didn't w/ the condition of Chicago Public Schools):
Cochran said, “safety is … a much more important issue than is privacy.”
“It is extremely important that we look past this privacy issue, at this point, and understand how important it is for us to address the issue of safety,” he added.
Yep, give up your freedoms for the promise of illusionary 'safety'.  Ben Franklin is spinning is his grave

And this useless measure would do absolutely nothing to prevent headlines like this:
17 Shot, 2 Killed Over Weekend In Chicago

 It's people like Cochran that are the real danger to our society.

Anti Gun Rally Fail Pt II

More details from posts on the ISRA FB page and articles regarding the Glenview meeting

Numerous attempts were made to keep the ISRA/NRA members in the back of the room, leaving the front rows for 'approved' people (ie ones that support gun bans). Sound familiar?   It didn't work real well.

Just to show the contempt that anti-gun activists have for anything that pro-rights people do, when the audience spontaneously began reciting the pledge of allegiance,it was met w/ the panelists remaining in their seats and rolling their eyes.

Lots of statistics were used.  Apparently one claim about crime dropping in IL, they got the speaker to admit that Chicago was left out of the figures.  In response to his numbers being questioned, the speaker (Jenkins) then started calling the audience members Nazi's and claiming that the latest atrocities were committed by NRA members.

Speaker Lee Goodman apparently believes that Concealed Carry is designed to allow license holders to go into homes and shoot babies in cribs.
“It’s about babies,” Goodman read. “Dead babies and babies shot up so bad, they’ll live, but never like they would have. It’s about babies not kissing their moms goodnight anymore, babies not in any more class pictures. … It’s about tiny babies and babies all grown up. … It’s not about someone’s right to bear arms.”
You know, 'babies' like Willis Bates who violently beat Mary Shepard

These people are real winners.

White House War On Garands

Obama blocked the import of M1 carbines from Korea.

NY banned magazines over 7 rnds (which includes Garands at 8 rnds)

Here's the WH statement on their contempt for older firearms:
 Eliminate restrictions that force the ATF to authorize importation of dangerous
weapons simply because of their age: ATF is required to authorize the importation of
certain “curio or relic” firearms, and outdated regulations include all firearms manufactured more than 50 years ago in the definition of “curio or relic.” But today, firearms manufactured more than 50 years ago include large numbers of semiautomatic military-surplus rifles, some of which are easily convertible into machine guns or otherwise appealing for use in crime. Congress should get rid of restrictions that prevent ATF from changing this definition, enabling ATF to ensure that firearms imported as curios or relics are actually of interest as collectibles, rather than letting these rules be used as a way to acquire fully functional and powerful military weapons.
 So according to Obama, WWII is no longer of any 'interest'.  Guess there's not enough vets left to make a voting block.

They don't just want to ban AR's like Durbin claimed. They're after ALL semi-autos (and all guns in general) and will make up whatever nonsense they can.  Garands 'easily convertible' and 'appealing for use in crime'?  Seriously?  When was the last time a store was robbed by a WWII re-enactor?

Old weapons will be banned.  New weapons will be banned. Big weapons will be banned. Small weapons will be banned.  And then we'll have laws (and crime) just like Mexico.

Anti-Gun Rally Fail (For the Anti's at Least)

What should it tell a political advocacy meeting is attended almost exclusively by your opponents?

Well in the mind of an anti-gun advocate, that those people are 'unreasonable' and need to 'compromise'. 

Several Joyce puppet groups gave speeches and regurgitated the usual nonsense about the 'gun industry dying' and 'marketing to criminals'.  Not a new thought in their heads for 20 years.  And of course there's this:
“This is part of the dialogue we need to have,” Walsh insisted. “We need to come up with some sort of compromise.”
 IOW you stupid rednecks need to shut up and give up your guns. There is no 'dialogue'.  Just take a look at the contemptive body language as the anti 'listens':

Story Image

 Think there's any attempt at 'understanding' there?  No. He just wants us to shut up and go away.

Really though. If 'public support' is so strong for 'gun control', WHERE ARE THE SUPPORTERS?!?

The meeting was 10:1+ against more.  WHERE ARE THE SUPPORTERS??

Oh that's right, there are barely any outside of fanatics and professionals (often one and the same).

This is why we need to keep the pressure up.

Sen. Dick Durbin (IL): 10 Rounds 'Generous'

Think they won't push for fewer when they get the chance? Think that the CT bill limiting guns to 1 shot was an outlier?

Think again.
 "we should limit it to 10 and even that is a generous limitation"  (6 min)
And then of course uses a 100rnd mag as his pet demon. He spends half the time lying about the NRA, kissing Bloomberg's butt, and then calls Obama's proposals a 'reasonable middle ground'.  Opposing gun bans is just 'parsing words' and 'trifles' as long as AR's are included in the ban. No matter if the legislators have no clue what they're talking about. He actually says that gun laws should be pushed during the heat of the moment before politicians talk to their constituents(~11min.)

They want to ban guns. That is the bottom line.  Oh, and spend more money.

Gun N!gg3rs


A comment on FB.
 I'm sure you couldn't care less as long as the NRA remains ever powerful in this country. It may have began decent but now it is a loathesome organization. The dedicated, radical members likely don't care if their own kids are victims as long as they have their weapons capable of killing hundreds in under 5 minutes.
 How can you reason or compromise w/ someone that is this unreasonable?  Someone who has this much hate and bigotry in them towards firearm owners and the NRA (or anything they associate w/ the NRA) ?

I mean really. This is a person who honestly believes that hundreds of thousands of their fellow Americans are sitting on their couches, stroking their guns, while letting their little kids play w/ loaded handguns.

  This is the type of person who was convinced that 'Negroes lust after white women' and other silly stereotypes in order to justify their own personal ignorance, hatred and biases. 

Two words.  You can't.  Especially when they're PROUD of it:

Honest and open h.a.t.e.r of guns and loathing for the NRA. organization and any other organization that supports and puts these killing machines out for any brain.dead individual to get his/her hands on. If that makes me a bigot, I am proudly that. Now go t.r.o.l.l someone else.


To them, we're nothing but a bunch of 'Gun N!gg3rs'. 



There was no reasoning w/ that type and there's no reasoning w/ most anti-gun activists.

The Bills Are Piling Up II

And they're just as stupid as the previous ones I mentioned.

Cook County Board President Prickwinkle wants to punish people who are victims of crime w/ a $1000 fine
The ordinance will require individuals who lose, destroy, transfer or have their firearm stolen in the County, to report it to the Sheriff’s Office within 48 hours.  Individuals who fail to comply will be subject to a $1,000 fine for the first violation. Owners will be required to report the make, model and serial number of the firearm, along with the date and location of purchase.
 And if you don't have all that?  Screw you Prickwinkle. 

And Munoz joins his buddy by introducing a ban on most firearms in the IL senate.

These are the politicians that literally run out the back door when 7,000 people come marching to the capitol wearing gold shirts.
