... "And in a Bizarro parody of the Declaration of Independence that, true to the nature of all 'progressive' claims means just the opposite of what they say, they demand government control the populace in an even more 'perfect,' that is, perfectly totalitarian union. Considering that Bloomberg and his fellow mayoral travelers are government 'officials,' it’s akin to British colonial officials penning the foundational document from 1776 to argue George III needed more power." ... |

"A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts. I turned my head to the door and said, 'Come on in.' Nurse N. opened the door, and pushed along a cart with a laptop on top. Nurse N. is a pleasant woman, ready to retire. She takes my blood pressure and pulse, then returns to the laptop and enters my vitals. She asks a few questions. Have you been feeling this, have you been feeling that. She clicks the mouse recording my answers. 'Now I am going to ask you some mental health questions,' she says, moving the mouse around. 'Have you been feeling any symptoms of depression?' . . ." ... |

'Another issue is the insistence of certain people who stand on the graves of dead children and challenge those that disagree to say it to the parent’s faces. Well, I, for one, will pick up that gauntlet… I’ll say to anyone’s face my right is more important than your dead, because I fought for it first hand… I did more things than people can imagine. So, yeah, my right trumps your dead.' He challenged those in the legislature who voted for the bill to join him and other LEOs on the front lines as they tried to enforce the laws. ..." ... |

"St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner has discussed New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's racist 'stop-and-frisk' policies for years. Ostensibly to combat 'gun violence,' the NYPD ignores the Fourth Amendment rights of over 800,000 New Yorkers per year, only about nine percent of whom are white, finding an 'illegal gun' about 0.15% of the time. That's about once per 667 searches." ...
"... In the wake of the City Council vote, though, Bloomberg has doubled down on his bigoted, authoritarian, tin pot dictator role, and has the audacity to claim that the NYPD does not engage enough in racial profiling. ..." ... |

"In a video released Monday (embedded), New York City's Mayor Michael Bloomberg asks — and then answers — that very question in his endorsement of Illinois gubernatorial candidate Bill Daley." ...

"Anti-gun New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg needs a cold drink, at least a 32-ouncer, after a Monday press conference where he blamed hot weather for the past weekend’s spike in Big Apple violent crime; a demonstrably false notion considering that Seattle hasn’t suffered a string of homicides with the higher mercury hereabouts." ... |

"Two bills aimed at luring gunmakers to Michigan are being discussed in Lansing."
"Sen. Tom Casperson introduced the measure which would create Arms Related Manufacturing (ARM) zones."
"ARM zones are modeled after tool and die zones to create tax incentives to attract firearms manufacturers to locate in Michigan. Due to recent restrictive legislation being proposed and enacted in their home states, some gun manufacturers are increasingly looking to other states as a possible new home for their respective businesses." ... |

Firstly, four of the plaintiffs (and significantly even more who appeared at a press conference in Jackson last week announcing their plans) are members of the Mississippi Senate.

Examiner received a copy of the document, which asserts that I-594 'does not inform the voters of two crucial issues, (a) that the initiative criminalizes the currently common practice of private party firearms transfers and (b) that it requires private parties to contract with a dealer, who is permitted to charge an unregulated fee for this newly mandatory service.'" ... |

In California our politicians think they can legislative all to safety through more constrictive gun laws and programs. One of these programs is called APPS which stands for Armed Prohibited Persons System and is aimed with taking away guns from people who shouldn't have them. On paper this sounds like it is taking assault weapons out of the hands of serial killers, but in reality this is taking weapons away from a whole bunch of non-gang members. NRA News put together a great video interviewing former DOJ Special Agent Greg Cameron and the absurdity of wasting time, money, and man power chasing after folks through the APPS program. |

"In Belton, TX, the 4th of July parade is an event with deep and long standing traditions. Since 1850 the town has held an annual parade to celebrate Independence Day. For much of that history, Color Guards and, more recently, civil war re-enactors have marched in the parade with slung or carried rifles."
"This year will be different. After the organization, Open Carry Texas, signed up (and was approved) to march in the parade with their rifles, the insurance company is now saying all guns will be disallowed – if the parade wants to keep its insurance that is." ... |
