KABA NOTE: Was anyone in the store able to be armed?

One Indiana Church found an "interesting" way to "get more guns and violence off the street." The Guns for Gifts program pays $50 for each gun from local residents who wanted to "get rid of unwanted firearms." Then they destroy these guns and turn them into melted scrap metal.

(And what are they going to do about the *criminals* -- the people actually *responsible* for crimes?)

POMONA -- Maria del Carmen Leautaud Garcia lived for the day when she and her three children would move out of their Angela Street home. But she never got the chance to see it.

"I opened the door and they shoot her," said the son in broken English.

KABA NOTE: Gee, doesn't California have all those restrictive "gun control" laws that are supposed to "prevent" these tragedies? It would appear their anti-gun laws don't work.
 

CO, Denver: "123 Kids Die Needlessly"

This editorial claims "Firearms killed as many Denver children as traffic accidents did over the past four years..."

Apparently accidents were the biggest unnatural cause of death, including 17 car accidents, 10 drownings, seven cases of suffocation and ONE gun death.

But the editors at the Denver post aren't calling for more car/drowning/suffocation control. They claim this staggering statistic "...underscores the need to regard guns as a public health issue."
 

CO, Denver: Expert says Officer likely lied about fatal shooting

Evidence indicates that a Denver police officer lied about a fatal shooting, a forensic expert told the Public Safety Review Commission, who wanted the officer "reprimanded" for "departing from the truth."

The commission hired an outside expert after they wrote that they thought the officer was lying and that he should be disciplined, and the DA's Office and police chief rejected this conclusion, saying members "lacked the expertise to support their theories."

With less than two weeks left in the year, Chicago is poised to overtake New York for only the 2nd time on record and log the most homicides of any city in the nation. Chicago has recorded 648 slayings through Wednesday. New York City, with 3 times as many residents, had 619 killings.

The numbers also raise questions about how New York has been able to slash homicides by 70% between 1993 and 2000 while Chicago only recorded a 33% drop.

KABA NOTE: New York City and Chicago both have extremely restrictive gun control laws in place.

...she plans to introduce legislation that would "bring the nation in line with her home state's stringent laws" regarding gun sales and background checks. Feinstein said she believes U.S. citizens, including members of the National Rifle Association, would support universal background checks.

(Uh, she would be wrong on that one.)

Social studies teacher Steve Decker was suspended without pay for 60 days after a search dog hired by the school nosed down a deer rifle in his [LOCKED] pickup truck.

Principal Randall Renoud had nothing to do with Decker's suspension. Interquest Security officials contacted the district's central office, which, "by law, must report [any] incident to police."

"I just happened to forget it that morning," Decker said.

"It was only a matter of time before the gun-ban lobby took advantage of Americans' fears of terrorist attacks to scare them into giving up more of their rights. Gun banners are now rushing to demonize the latest politically incorrect sporting gun — the .50-caliber target rifle."

A 42-year-old Hinton man was indicted by an Oklahoma City federal grand jury on charges of "dealing in firearms without a license."

Thursday's hearing was a last-ditch effort by "pro-restriction" [read: 'anti-gun'] residents to save the rule.

"Do not wipe away these regulations that are designed to 'protect public safety'," said attorney Gary Sackett of the "Gun Violence Prevention Center of Utah". He said that Attorney General Shurtleff's review "failed to consider laws giving employers responsibility to maintain a safe workplace."

"There is no other explanation for the Attorney General's opinion other than it was politically motivated," Sackett whined.

The long, thin, wrapped present under Mark Hinton's Christmas tree isn't a scooter or a pogo stick.

On Tuesday, Hinton's 9-year-old son, Weston, will tear open festive paper encasing a 20-gauge shotgun.

The gift might seem rare for a child, but it's not. Most national gun retailers are reporting an increase in youth gun sales in recent weeks.
