Why is Jim Carrey Talking out of His Ass about Gun Control?
Because his career’s in the dumps, and he needs to do something to get attention. So says Daniel Greenfield in a post at FrontPageMag, and I’m inclined to agree with him. Carrey has indeed drawn attention for his crazed anti-gun rants, but he’s also guaranteed that a large portion of the population won’t watch his [...]
Biden: Folks Worried about Gun Registration Schemes are Part of “Black Helicopter Crowd”
So, if you’re worried about the government forcing you to register your gun (as a prelude to confiscation), you’re a conspiracy kook that also worries about the “black helicopters” patrolling our skies. Ah, just Joe being Joe again – opening his mouth so everyone can see what a dimbulb he really is. If you don’t [...]
Post a Pic on Facebook of Your Kid with a Gun? Be Prepared for a Visit from the Goon Squad
That is exactly what happened to the Moores in Carney’s Point, NJ. Father Shawn Moore posted a photo of his son Josh holding a .22 caliber rifle that was a birthday gift. Days later, child welfare workers and police show up and demand to see his guns. Since when do these storm troopers under the guise of [...]
Feinstein’s Assault Weapons Ban: DOA
Even Dingy Harry had to had to acknowledge the truth: there’s no way in hell a bill like this could even pass the Democrat-controlled Senate, much less the House. Boo hoo. To advance a cause that has defined her political career, Sen. Dianne Feinstein brought the father of a child killed at Sandy Hook Elementary [...]
Eric Holder: Obama Wants to “Expand” the List of Who Can’t Own Guns
The mentally ill and convicted felons are already prohibited from gun ownership. Eric Holder describes how Obama has asked him to see how to “expand” the list. Funny – I don’t see anything in the Constitution about how the President can infringe on the right to keep and bear arms. A saying I’ve been seeing [...]
Newtown Student’s Father: You’ll Take My Guns from My Cold Dead Hands
The father of a Sandy Hook Elementary school student (who was not harmed in the shooting, but her friend’s younger sister was killed) testified against gun control in a Working Group Public Hearing at the Connecticut State Capitol on gun violence prevention.

Joe Being Joe: Gun Laws Offer No Guarantees against Another Mass Shooting
Really? No sh*t, Joe. We coulda told you that. Sometimes I wonder if this guy has all his marbles, or if he just doesn’t have any sort of filter when he’s running off at the mouth. The article says one of his staffers tried to shut him up before he admitted that the administration’s gun-grab tactics [...]
Newtown Calls for Armed School Officers. Huh? Gun Expert Joe Biden Said that Would be a “Terrible Mistake”
Our esteemed VP, the affable dope Joe Biden, said that putting armed guards in the schools would be a “terrible mistake.” I guess the people who want their kids to be protected don’t give a damn what Joe Biden says. Just yesterday, when one kid shot another at a school in Atlanta, the shooter was [...]
Just Think: If Obama Could Have His Way with Gun Control, the WHOLE Country Could be Just Like Chicago
Yes, Chicago, that strict gun-controlled paradise that had 500+ homicides last year, and is on track for a repeat this year. The liberal geniuses just don’t seem to get it: in localities where handguns are allowed, and carried concealed, the crime rate drops. The criminals obviously don’t give a rat’s ass about whether there’s a [...]
New White House Petition: Eliminate Armed Secret Service Details for Prez, VP, and Families and Establish “Gun Free Zones”
Hey – if “Gun Free Zones” are good enough for our protection, why aren’t they good enough for those guys? Go sign the thing. Sure, it’s ridiculous, and it won’t make any difference, but it will help make a point.
Sometimes, It Doesn’t Even Need to Be Loaded: Home Intruders Leave After Seeing ‘Victim’ Holding AR-15 Rifle
That’s right, the intended “victim” had one of those horrible “assault” rifles. Looks like they protect people from assaults, too. As it turns out, the gun wasn’t even loaded, but the criminals didn’t stay around to find out. Two home intruders, one holding a handgun, broke into a New York apartment on Tuesday and waited [...]
Former D.C. Prosecutor: Strict Gun Ban Failed
Former Washington D.C. prosecutor Jeffrey Scott Shapiro spent a lot of time enforcing gun and ammunition laws while the district’s strict gun ban was in place.

Gallup: Only 4% of Americans Think Gun Control is One of the Important Issues Right Now
Guns and gun control rank a distant and nearly-insignificant 7th in a recent Gallup poll of issues Americans think are important right now. Many more think the economy and budget deficit are much more important, but the gun issue is sucking all the air out of the room right now. Click the chart to see [...]
Americans Buy Enough Guns in Last Two Months to Outfit the Entire Chinese and Indian Armies
These numbers are amazing. No wonder so many people are having trouble finding ammo. I remember reading in some article that there are only about 850,000 police officers in the whole country. I expect, though, that those guys are purchasing these weapons, too. Honest Americans Bought Enough Guns in November and December to Outfit the [...]
Universal Background Checks for Firearms Purchases – Would They Make a Difference?
Probably, but not the one gun-control zealots are looking for. They would impose lots more federal and/or state regulations on the purchase or exchange of firearms, and possibly infringe still more on our personal liberty. What they almost certainly wouldn’t do: stop mass killings by motivated nutcases who really want to kill a lot of [...]
NRA Discovers What a Lot of Us Already Knew about Obama’s Gun Violence “Conversation”
Officials from the NRA attended a meeting at the White House, as part of the “discussion” on gun violence. After attending, they released a statement that confirms what a lot of us already suspected.

5 Things Joe Biden and His Panel of Gun-Crime Experts Should Consider, But Won’t
Nick Gillespie of Reason TV has a good presentation of facts about gun ownership and crime that includes 5 things Joe Biden and his gun-control commission should consider when making recommendations to Obama later this month. Of course, they won’t consider them, because it’s better to let emotion and ideology rule your decision making in [...]
Wyoming Lawmakers: Take Your Federal Gun-Control Law and Shove It

Wyoming lawmakers have proposed a new bill that, if passed, would nullify any federal restrictions on guns, threatening to jail federal agents attempting to [...]
Obamacare Amendment Forbids Gun and Ammo Registration – Or Does It?
I’ve heard this mentioned by Rush Limbaugh on his show, and seen numerous references to it on the interwebs. Folks seem to be in a tizzy that those stupid Democrats kicked themselves in the ass by inserting a provision into the Obamacare bill that they jammed down our throats last year that doesn’t allow the [...]
