Brian Aitken: My Life as a Convicted Gun Offender Who Did Nothing Wrong :: 10/13/2013

At 6 AM, the sky outside my apartment is still purple-black. It’s too early. I stagger out of bed and stand under a scalding jet of water in the shower, trying to remember where I’ve been, where I am, and where I need to be. Oklahoma. Austin. Houston. In less than eight hours I have to climb a stage and tell a roomful of strangers my story. As far as stories go, it’s pretty interesting, I guess. It’s got thrills, heartbreak, what technically counts as crime, and even a little bit of vindication. But telling it wears me out. Living through it was more than enough.

Colin Noir on the Second Amendment :: 10/07/2013

I'd love to see a debate between Mike Bloomberg and his MAIG criminals, and Colin Noir. Mr. Noir, being a person of color, would have to schedule the debate anywhere but New York City. He'd be late for the debate after several "stop and frisk" stops.

How about some "reasonable limits" on Freedom of Speech? :: 10/07/2013

You can't scream "FIRE" in a crowded theater. Why would you be allowed to violate the Fourth Amendment (we are secure in our homes) by allowing a newspaper to publish the names and addresses of folks with a License to Carry a Firearm? Even New York State forbids that! While Freedom of Expression is sacrosanct, unduly placing citizens in the crosshairs of thieves and other reprobates is criminal. We say--"No Way!"

How draconian are New Jersey gun laws? Ask Brian Aitken. :: 10/07/2013

If you don't know who Brian Aitken is, he is the man detained for lawfully transporting firearms. He was tried and convicted and spent 4 months in jail before Governor Christie cut him loose. Think that's the end of the story? Not hardly. He cannot even visit his young son. This story ought to disturb you---a lot.

Pittsburgh League of Women Voters say they hold no political position. Maybe they could speak to their sisters in Ohio. :: 10/07/2013

Why do some folks have so much difficulty with the idea that NOT creating a patchwork of laws about guns in a single State is aGOOD idea? And support from the League of Women Voters?

What are Holder and anti-gun groups REALLY up to? :: 10/07/2013

While you sit at work, or catch up on your chores, on this cold and rainy Monday, we're looking high and low for the real deal on the anti gunners, those who claim they only want "sensible" or "reasonable" gun laws. http://www.news-journal.com/opinion/coulter-our-rights-and-their-intentions/article_ab6da44d-7a87-5e0f-a79e-173db6c12583.html Please click on the hyperlink and see what Brian Coulter has to say.

A "Gun Free Zone" you probably didn't know existed. :: 10/04/2013

Hey, why not carjack an ambulance, and the patient too? Paramedics are forbidden to carry weapons. Never thought that ambulance hauling you off to the trauma center was a gun free zone, did you? PA Code 1005.10 Licensure and general operating standards

Kerry says signing the U.N. Arms Treaty won't affect your rights. :: 10/04/2013

Kerry should be aware that only the Senate can ratify a treaty, and only God Almighty knows what he was thinking when he unilaterally signed the UN Arms Treaty. His signature is worthless, and flies in the face of his oath to defend the Constitution. Call or write your Congress-critter today, and demand that Kerry be removed.

"Its happening every day!!!" says Obama :: 09/23/2013

Our President is bound and determined to disarm us. His new battle cry--"Its happening every day" as he speaks about mass murderers. Can't blame an AR-15 because the murderer used a shotgun? No problem, just tell the sheep that "its happening every day". We know its not, and its time to call your Senator and Representative ---again, or for some of us, still---and complain about the "exaggerations" of Obama. Afterall, we don't want to come out and shout "You lie" as one brave Congressman did.

Legislating from the Judicial Bench--it should be a removal offense. :: 09/20/2013

Everybody is entitled to an opinion. Jurists, however, MUST follow the law, and the Constitution. The judge in this report out of Connecticut should be removed at once.

Navy Yard Murderer-Did the USA call off its best resource and allow the rampage? :: 09/20/2013

In a editorial from the day of the shooting, your faithful editor asked if it could be possible that the anti gun Obama administration was willing to sacrifice American lives in order to advance an anti gun policy. We were simply thinking out loud, and then this appears. Note that its not from the United States, but from Great Britain. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/24153252 The BBC are generally quite conservative, and often supportive of Obama. Not this time. Please click the link to read the awful suggestion that the BBC claims to be true. We're inclined to believe them.

Obama-Ruling by executive order. :: 09/19/2013

Would you be surprised to find that Obama has once again stifled collectors and competitors efforts to get a Garand or an M-1 Carbine? Of course you wouldn't. At least we now know ONE of the 23 proposed Executive Orders. Here's a quote from Widener's:wideners&wideners.com [mailto:wideners&wideners.com]

What in the world are we teaching our children? :: 09/19/2013

To know the history of the gun is to know the history of our Republic. Too bad some school districts are adopting Common Core curriculum that denies that history, but also demonizes arms for defense of State and self.
