NRA’s Cox calls RedState report ‘a lie’

by David Codrea June 30, 2010 The War on Guns

I see no good reason for NRA not making its objections known before the Senate Judiciary Committee. The “political capital” apologia does not wash–if there was ever a time to take a firm stand, it is now. If only certain…

by SayUncle June 30, 2010 SayUncle

I said before most NRA hate is unfounded. But one thing they do that annoys me is not giving credit when it is due. None of their releases regarding McDonald mention either Alan Gura or the Second Amendment Foundation. Those two were, you know, sort of the big players in the landmark case. NRA [...]

Keep tilting at windmills. And:
She said that limiting Chicago residents to one handgun would pass constitutional muster. Nowhere has the court determined that “a person is [...]

Al Sharpton:
I would say 90% of the calls I received yesterday were in support of the Supreme Court and people say they want to bear guns. They?re tired of the violence and it?s very very interesting. I have had a few on both sides today, but yesterday was overwhelming, it was stunning to me.

I haven’t kept up with it because, like most NRA hate, it’s usually short on facts and long on speculation. But Red State says that NRA issued a gag order to the board to shut up about Kagan. Except it is the board decides what NRA does and not the NRA that decides what [...]

Stupid:
Why does neither the U.S. government nor U.S. energy companies have on hand the cleanup technology available in Europe? Ironically, the superior European technology runs afoul of U.S. environmental rules. The voracious Dutch vessels, for example, continuously suck up vast quantities of oily water, extract most of the oil and then spit overboard vast [...]

If the Brady Campaign thinks McDonald is a victory … they just don’t get it
