Gotta Love the VPC

by Cemetery's Gun Blob February 28, 2010 Cemetery's Gun Blob

I mean who can take them seriously.  Fuzzy math, and outrageous statements.  Do they really believe what they right?  I can’t help myself anymore, when I read about people who use their stat’s, I just can’t stop chuckling.  If you believe what they say, there’s a guy in Brooklyn with a bridge to sell to [...]

Sunday Night Quote

by Jay February 28, 2010 Rifles, Pistols, and Jay

Pericles, Xenophon, Socrates, Caesar, and so on down through Washington, Napoleon, Roosevelt, and Churchill were [...]

Militarisme pacifique

by konradbaumgarten February 28, 2010 The Swiss Gun Blog

Il faut militariser la société. Non pas au sens étatiste, voire fachistoïde du terme, mais au sens civil et milicien. Il faut encourager les hommes et les femmes à apprendre à se servir d’armes, à en posséder. L’homme est un loup pour l’homme, c’est vrai. Mais l’homme est aussi un berger pour l’homme.

Gun Control Works Well For Criminals

by Jay February 28, 2010 Rifles, Pistols, and Jay

This story highlights the lunacy of people like the Brady Campaign and others who seek to remove firearms from citizens. When four people are pistol whipped you know that someone would have gotten the drop on the two scumbags. Instead four people are victims.

article on McDonald case

by Of Arms and the Law February 28, 2010 Arms & The Law

In the LA Times. Memorable quote:

“The 2nd Amendment says, “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” Throughout the 19th century, and until quite recently, the high court maintained that this clause was intended to give states the power to control armed militias.

But in recent decades, most Americans have come to believe the 2nd Amendment protects their right to have a gun, regardless of whether they serve in a militia.”
