U.S. Pilots Press Regulators to Let Them Carry Guns
Submitted by: John Fansler

(Reuters) - Last week a United Airlines co-pilot thwarted a cockpit intruder by whacking him with an ax, but many pilots would rather arm themselves with guns.

--The main problem with Pilots carrying guns is that they are working stiffs like you and me! The next thing you know the average guy will want to be able to protect himself and his family when waling down the street or visiting a mall and then Constitutional rights will have to be allowed and that could lead to American freedom.

"Rep. John Hostettler (R-IN), in a series of letters to his contemporaries and the Federal Aviation Administration, said Section 128 of the Aviation and Transportation Security Act – signed into law by President Bush soon after the Sept. 11 attacks – 'addresses flight deck security and lays down the necessary guidelines for authorizing commercial pilots to carry firearms in the cockpits of their aircraft.'"

He wants the provisions carried out post haste.

FINALLY!

WHAT MOTIVES LURK BEHIND LEFT-WING POLITICS? Today’s typical Leftist, for example, wants forcibly to confiscate every American man’s .22 rifle and woman’s .25 caliber self-protection handgun. Such things, say the Nanny Statists, are intolerably dangerous.

But these same gun grabbers condemn any suggestion that the United States should snatch nuclear weapons potential out of the hands of terror regimes in North Korea, Iran, and Iraq.

"I've been watching, reading, and listening to the rhetoric coming from our enemies camp. We should be so ashamed as to have our elected Senators and Congressmen seriously violate what they were put in to office to do; Raising their arm to the square, then taking a solemn Oath, and then breaking it...

I will never fly a commercial aircraft again until I will be allowed to defend myself." - Mike W. Smith

In a January 2000 speech to the ICHV, Wood further antagonized firearm owners by labeling them as '...gun blinded militants' who engage in '...threats and narrow minded subterfuge.'

Wood's inflammatory rhetoric along with her implicit approval of the ICHV's extremist gun control policies make her unsuitable to serve as Governor of Illinois."

The NRA says it is willing to go to court, if necessary, to preserve its First Amendment rights. It is one of many issue advocacy groups that have criticized the various versions of the Shays-Meehan bill, and its Senate companion McCain-Feingold, for infringing on the free speech and free association rights of its members.
 

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
There is no way to rule innocent men. The only power government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. — Ayn Rand in her must-read novel, Atlas Shrugged
