The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and the State …
Paul Helmke is absolutely correct that this incident, and many like it, are horrible: And then, on September 22, their family life was shattered by a man who walked up to their adopted son, Daren Dieter, and shot him in the spine. The shooter left Daren in a parking lot in Philadelphia, paralyzed from the … Continue reading “We Only Disagree on Solutions”
And winning competitions, according to Michael Bane and The Shooting Wire. So much for a gun that doesn’t have any sporting use eh?
A lot of other people have linked Rob’s great suggestions for Paul. I will too.  It’s deserving of a high google rank.
Come on Paul, just declare Godwin’s Law and be done with it. If you want reasoned discourse, why don’t you post about some of the stuff you disagree with on some of our blogs? Brady people are as welcome to comment here as anyone else. Although, I guess you and your staff are too busy … Continue reading “Reasoned Discourse”
I’ve noticed a lot more blogs lately picking up on the gun control thing. This keeps things interesting, at least, but I wish they’d come up with their own material. When was the last time you saw one of us linking to crap at the NRA? They are usually a week behind us.  For two … Continue reading “Questioning an Armed Society”
I have to agree with SayUncle that this is not the way to go about things. Any political movement will have its whack jobs. I would point out some examples of anti-gun people coming to my site to leave bozotic comments, but there aren’t any. In order to have bozos, you have to actually have … Continue reading “At Least We Don’t Have to Pay Our Bozos”
You know it’s a slow day when I’m linking to anti-gun blogs, which, I have to say, are few and far between, and as best I can tell, mostly unread. Let’s start fisking: The Virginia Tech shooting – 33 dead, 25 wounded – was another spark for the gun control debate in the United States. … Continue reading “Anti-Gun = Don’t know crap about the issue”
I think it’s quite possible that, rather than an astroturfing campaign, we’re seeing the fact that newspapers just love this “I’m a gun owner, but I support gun control” articles. I should be clear that if it is astroturfing, I don’t think the Brady’s are behind it. My guess would be the AHSA, but this … Continue reading “More From the Tinfoil Hat”
 According to Paul Helmke: It’s long past time to have a serious national conversation about gun violence. It’s past time for us to agree that something is wrong when an individual with such obvious signs of instability can legally arm himself with the extraordinary firepower necessary to murder so many innocent people. Something is wrong … Continue reading “What Would Have Worked?”
First we get an alert from the NRA about another barrage of hearing arranged by the usual suspects in Philadelphia. Then I pull up the Brady Homepage and notice a PATH graphic with link displayed prominently. Aside from the usual loads of bullshit like: Under current law, a person can go into a gun shop … Continue reading “Target: Pennsylvania”
