House Bill 5471 was introduced on 11/29/01 by gun-hating state rep Gilda Jacobs...to bar anyone with a Concealed Pistol License from any public library. Granted there has never been a shooting in a public library anywhere in America by a licensed citizen, but Jacobs and a small core of anti-gun legislators don’t care about facts. They just want to take away the right to carry bit by bit and this is their first bite.
...we’ve compiled some information about them. Please spread this around... |

The people of Switzerland have rejected a proposal to scrap the country's armed forces.
Opponents of the army say there is no point in neutral Switzerland maintaining a fighting force, which it claims costs more than $5.5bn a year to maintain.
Abolishing the army, they say, would free up resources and people that Switzerland could invest instead in non-military initiatives, both at home and abroad. |

Attorney General John Ashcroft is considering a plan to relax restrictions on the F.B.I.'s spying on religious and political organizations. The proposal would loosen one of the most fundamental restrictions on the conduct of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and would be another step by the Bush administration to modify civil-liberties protections as a means of "defending the country against terrorists". |

The Bush administration is asking Congress for a second major expansion of federal surveillance powers that legal experts say would radically change laws that have long protected the rights of Americans.
A Justice Department proposal would eliminate the chief legal safeguard in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). A CIA proposal seeks legal authority to gather telephone and Internet records from domestic communication companies. |

"The Bill of Rights contains no "exceptions" to any of the first ten amendments during times of "national crisis" or "terrorism" or whatever else might panic our pusillanimous politicians into passing "antiterrorism" bills they admit they've not even read. Neither terrorism nor corrupt political leadership are new concepts, so as we celebrate Bill of Rights Day...spend the dime calling congress and reminding them why Americans have guns." --Andrew Johnstone, RPh/MD, DGSL.org |

There has been much debate over the "interpretation" of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. Most of this debate has been focused on the phrases "A well-regulated militia" and "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
...in the aftermath of the September 11th attacks in New York and at the Pentagon, I have come to the position that there is even more to this amendment than most of us previously realized... --Frank W. Kelley |

Metcalf interviews professor on government use of surveillance:
Q: I continue to hear..."Hey, if you don't have anything to hide, what do you care if the government is looking into your stuff?"
A: ...we can't be sure if we have anything to hide, because nowadays there are so many vague and conflicting laws and so many laws and regulations that an ordinary person can't know if he or she is in compliance with all those things... |

Asked why he traded two guns for San Jose Sharks tickets and an armload of hockey paraphernalia, Rudy Vega of San Jose glanced down at his 2-year-old son, who was cheerfully waving an autographed puck.
"Because I have two little kids in the house," he said. "You just hear so many bad stories. It's not worth it."
KABA NOTE: Yes, the media has done a great job making it look like firearm accidents are a common thing. |

"Foreign terrorists have exploited a loophole to buy weapons at gun shows," McCain said. "Clearly, alleged members of terrorist organizations have been able to secure guns and weapons using the gun-show loophole."
McCain (also) believes that "the rights of gun owners come with responsibilities." (Kind of like a privelege) |

"I'm amazed and, I have to say, shocked that a university with the reputation of Northwestern would hire an unrepentant terrorist like her," Heston told the Chronicle. "I'm appalled."... |

Ted Turner, founder of the Cable News Network, said it was Cuban leader Fidel Castro who inspired him to broadcast CNN into other countries around the world. Castro invited Turner to visit Cuba in 1982 after a CNN news team visited the communist nation.
After his 1982 meeting with Castro, Turner commented, "Fidel ain't a communist. He's a dictator just like me."
KABA NOTE: While not directly RKBA-related, this exemplifies the mindset of a man (Turner) who owns so much American Media... |
