With the end of Black History Month I Ask: Black Community…What The Hell?

When I was growing up I remember hearing stories of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr and his non violent fight for equality. I remember Rosa Parks noble defiance when she refused to move from her seat. I remember learning of Booker T Washington going from slave to advisor to two US Presidents. I remember hearing of great men and women fighting and struggling for equality.  To be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. I can’t help but feel that the three I named and countless others are rolling over in their graves to see all they have worked for being pissed away by a generation who may only know of Dr. King because they got a day off because of him. “Leaders” of the black community nowadays, your Al Sharptons and Jessie Jacksons, are more interested in lining their own pockets and...

2nd Amendment DIY Edition

Sorry faithful readers, due to my internet connection being suspect at best I have had limited opportunity to keep the site up to date this week.   Hopefully by March 1st things will be right as rain and Bulletsfirst.net will continue to give you the latest and greatest in the fight for our rights with regards to the 2nd Amendment. In the meantime, here is another example of why gun control will always fail; you cannot eliminate ingenuity and innovation. Hence the do it yourself (DIY) brand of arms. As we have seen with 3D printed guns, if there is a will, people will find a way. And let’s not forget one of my personal favorites, the guy who created a working BLUNDERBUSS hand cannon from objects he found AFTER going through airport security: Inventor Proves TSA and Gun Control a Fraud.  Builds Blunderbuss Shotgun In Airport AFTER Checkpoint....

A Retort For Those “MUSKETS ONLY” Gun Controllers (Video)

You’ve no doubt heard those blustering gun controllers spewing forth their ignorance when they choose to speak on the notion that the 2nd Amendment was intended only to cover single shot black powder muskets. No doubt these same simple minded “historians” were doing so from a television show, internet website or on the radio…yet they still expect the 1st Amendment to protect them even though they aren’t physically pressing paper or giving a speech in the town square. This on top of the fact that gun controllers fall silent with regards to the single shot black powder firearms when a NJ retireee is charged with a felony for possession of a firearm that is an unloaded 1760 historical relic. Steven Crowder made a quick video that had some information that even surprised me about what kind of weapons were available BEFORE the revolutionary war that completely undercuts the gun control...

NJ To Send 72 yo Retired Professor to Jail for Owning FLINTLOCK Pistol

Apparently even the gun controllers who claim that the 2nd Amendment only protects guns from the 1700’s are full of crap. In the gun control haven that is New Jersey, 72 year old retired English teacher and historical curio collector Gordon Van Gilder is facing a minimum of 3.5 years and up to 10 years in prison for owning a weapon that hasn’t been in vogue since George Washington crossed the Delaware River. On top of that, if convicted Van Gilder will lose his pension. So glad to see that New Jersey is ensuring that antiques remain out of the hands of collectors and that those collectors are both jailed and made destitute.  Once again gun control attacks exactly who it is intended to…the innocent and law abiding. The case springs from once again admitting ANYTHING to the New Jersey gestapo…I mean police force.  In November of last year Van Gilder...

New York Senator Schumer Vows To Fight Tooth and Nail Against Freedom

Texas Senator John Cornyn has drafted a sensible, bi partisan supported measure named the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2015. In response, gun hating New York Senator Chuck Schumer has lost touch with reality. To hear Schumer speak of it, Cornyn’s bill would end civilization as he knows it and heralds the oncoming apocalypse. Here is just one quote from this elected official that, as a free American, makes me sick to my stomach: “This bill is a menace to New York and would allow potentially dangerous people from other states to carry concealed weapons in our grocery stores, movie theaters and stadiums, without even notifying the police.” Without notifying the po-lease.  Shucks massah Chuck, I dun realize i hadta ask the field massahs if i wanted to use ma rights. Yes.  I just used a politically incorrect slave impression to highlight how Chuck Schumer’s mind works.  Schumer is so...

Gun Controllers Use Technology To Undermine the 2nd Amendment

In a case of irony (mired in gun controller hypocrisy) gun control zealots in California have abandoned their long help argument that guns have become more advanced than the Founding Fathers could have foreseen and therefore they must be outlawed. The new argument, at least in California, is that firearms are NOT advanced enough and as such should be outlawed. I’m speaking of course of the psuedo-science behind the notion of “microstamping.”  Mircrostamping is the idea that the firing pin of a gun can implant identification markers on the shell casings thus identifying the person who shot that round. Before I get into the technical aspect of why this idea fails allow me to address the practical reasons such an idea fails. If you have time to police your brass (ie premeditated shooting) then the technology does nothing. If you use a revolver which keeps the brass in your...

Audio: Bloomberg’s Racist Gun Control Rant

It doesn’t take much scratching of the surface to get to the racist gooey center in many liberals.  The narrative for so long that America seems to have bought into is that the liberals are the ones who care for minorities while conservatives only care for white people. In truth, liberals love black people right where they are.  Bamboozle blacks and other minorities into thinking that they NEED the government, that they won’t be able to get a fair shake on their own, that the world is against them and they can only survive by suckling on the teet of government. But really, all that hoodwinking is a ploy to maintain a voting block that has kept the liberal wing of the Democratic party, and by extension the party itself, in existence.  Once blacks and other minorities realize that all the “help” that the government offers them is just...

An Adorable Story on Valentines Day with a Lion a Tiger and a Bear…oh my!

I’m not a fan of Valentines Day.  It is truly the quintessential Hallmark Holiday and the notion that a guy should treat his girlfriend/wife better on this day than the other 364 days of the year is insulting. If you aren’t treating your significant other like she’s the most special creature on the planet but for once a year, you are failing. Valentines day is the one day I take off from romance because its not special if you are obligated to do it.  It would be like saying you are volunteering for something that is all ready mandatory. With that being said, I felt like I would nonetheless share a story of loving friendship between three unique individuals.  A friendship that was forged in hardship yet has withstood the test of time and animal instinct. I’m referring to these adorable characters:   Leo the Lion, Baloo the Bear and Shere...

Court Rules Residency Requirement Unconstitutional for Handgun Purchases

I don’t know of one tangible item that is restricted to purchase based on where one lives if that item is legal in both places. Yet for handguns, for the longest time a person has been limited to what is available within their home state.  I don’t know about you but I have purchased cars and motorcycles in different states because I like the bigger selection and the lower prices. Of course, gun hating Nazi’s like Eric Holder have long since been against any type of freedom when it comes to the Second Amendment. From the Washington Times report: In the case, federally licensed firearms dealer Frederic Russell Mance Jr. of Texas and gun buyers Tracey and Andrew Hanson sued Mr. Holder and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Director B. Todd Jones claiming the federal ban on the sale of handguns outside of one’s state stops...

PA Town Posts “NOT A Gun Free Zone” Signs at Town Limits

I love Pennsylvania. One of the many reasons I do is because of places like Conoy Township and the smart, reason minded people who live there. As you enter into the small township at the westernmost area of Lancaster County you are greeted with a “Welcome to Conoy Twp” sign.  These signs are ubiquitous to nearly every population center you come across so I’ve no doubt that you’ve seen them before. What you may not have seen is what comes AFTER the first like. No THAT is a sign. Unlike those criminal empowerment zone signs that radical organizations like Moms Demand Action and Everytown for gun safety that want to ensure that criminals have free reign to rape murder to their hearts content, the good people of Conoy want to set the record straight. If you are a criminal it is best to keep moving on because the people of...

Racist Bloomberg and Crony Come Out and Say Guns Are Only For Whites

In a couple of the more incredibly honest moments from gun controllers, Former Mayor of NYC Michael Bloomberg and his ally, former Allentown city council member Michael Donovan have stated rather succinctly their views on race and gun control. At the Aspen Institute last week Michael Bloomberg was asked about education and spun the question directly into promoting gun control. Bloomberg claimed that 95 percent of murders fall into a specific category: male, minority and between the ages of 15 and 25. Cities need to get guns out of this group’s hands and keep them alive. So…even if you are of legal age, area  law abiding citizen but live in a city and happen to be black or hispanic or something that Bloomberg views as a minority, he thinks the government should deny you your 2nd Amendment rights.  A right that might actually SAVE your life against some criminal with...

Wyoming Moves To Ban Criminal Empowerment Areas aka “Gun Free Zones”

Between states like Indiana and New Hampshire pushing for Constitutional Carry and court victories in places like California that are making May-Issue states an endangered species, so far this is a good year for the 2nd Amendment and common sense. Common sense is poised for another big win as in Wyoming, a sensible thinking state rep by the name of Allen Jaggi introduced House Bill 114.  A bill which passed the Wyoming House of Representatives without any watering down amendments by an overwhelming vote of 42-17. What does HB 114 do?  It outlaws the state of Wyoming from enforcing the fatal fallacy of Gun Free Zones.  From the bill itself:  (a) This section shall be known and may be cited as the “Wyoming Repeal Gun Free Zones Act.” (b) Persons holding a valid concealed carry permit 2 issued by the state of Wyoming under W.S. 6-8-104(a)(ii)  may carry a concealed...

New Hampshire Seeks To Empower Citizens By Equal Firepower Measures

I am appreciating New Hampshire more and more as of late.  The Live Free Or Die state is really living up to its motto.  As you may have read about last week, NH is on the verge of becoming likes its neighbor Vermont and doing away with its firearm carrying licensing system to become a Constitutional Carry state. On the heels of that legislation is another bill, brought forth by State Representative J.H Hoell, that would bar the police from becoming a paramilitary force without consent of the people. The proposed legislation is now in committee. If it’s passed and signed into law by the governor, state and municipal agencies in New Hampshire will be barred from buying or even accepting free offers of “military style equipment” for police use, except with the approval of the assembled citizenry at a public town meeting. That prohibition would include not just MRAPS...

Empowered by the SAFE ACT, New York Gestapo At It Again

Once again, New York’s version of the Gestapo, drunk on their own power, has unconstitutionally seized the property of a law abiding citizen while filing no charges. Marc Weinstein is getting a modern day glimpse of what life was like in 1930’s Germany.  On February 25th 2014, the retired firefighter  got into an argument with his adult son.  Though tempers settled quickly, the police were contacted and arrived to a quiet and peaceful home. For some reason, though no one claimed a weapon was brandished, the police who responded to the call asked to not only see Weinstein’s weapons permit (show me your papers) but also demanded that he give them all of his REGISTERED firearms and ammunition. Once again proving that registration is just a con that gun control fanatics like Andrew Cuomo use in order to be able to seize firearms from law abiding citizens. Weinstein rightly refused to...

Live Free Or Die: New Hampshire On Verge Of Enacting Constitutional Carry

The Granite state is poised to crack under the pressure of inalienable rights as legislation has been introduced to make New Hampshire the seventh Constitutional Carry state in the nation. The legislation I refer to is Senate Bill 116 that was recently introduced by Republican Senators Jeb Bradley and David Boutin. The bill is rather direct and concise in its objective and intent. This bill: I. Increases the length of time for which a license to carry a pistol or revolver is valid. II. Allows a person to carry a loaded, concealed pistol or revolver without a license unless such person is otherwise prohibited by New Hampshire statute. III. Requires the director of the division of state police to negotiate and enter into agreements with other jurisdictions to recognize in those jurisdictions the validity of the license to carry issued in this state. IV. Repeals the requirement to obtain...

Gun Owners Take Over Gun Buyback- Gun Controllers Look On Helplessly

As readers of Bullets First know, I have been an outspoken critic of gun buyback programs.  The reasons for my disdain for the program is wide ranging.  From the idea that it does ANYTHING to stop gun crime to the fact that some nefarious police officers use it as a way to dupe ignorant people into parting with extremely valuable firearms for a $50 food gift card of a pittance. Though I must say, for a gun owner looking to expand their collection, a gun buyback event is a great place to find some deals. Imagine my delight when I found out that a group of gun owners took that advice and overtook a gun buyback in Oregon. On Jan. 17 a buyback event was held by radical anti gun control group Central Coast Ceasefire Oregon and the Newport Police Department.  The payoffs being offered were gift cards to superstore Fred...

SHOT Show Proves More Women Are Flocking to the Gun Industry

Gabriella Hoffman is a guest contributor to Bulletsfirst.net, renowned public speaker and the creator and editor of her own successful site: All-American Girl for the Restoration of Values Gabby was in Las Vegas covering the 37th Annual SHOT Show hosted by the National Shooting Sports Foundation. —————————- NSSF President and CEO Steve Sanetti unveiled a new study this morning at a press conference on the rise of female gun owners. The study is entitled “Women Gun Owners: Purchasing, Perceptions and Participation.” Over half of the women polled in this new study-approximately 55.6%-intend to buy a firearm in the next 12 months.  42% of those polled have a concealed carry permit in their respective state of residence. Additionally, 73% of those polled have taken at least one formal firearms safety course. When asked what drives them to purchase guns, women cited these reasons: fit, quality, and practicality. Moreover, women who were polled said...

Phoenix Patriot Foundation – Everything the Wounded Warrior Project Isn’t

As you may have recall I wrote an article at the end of last year exposing the Wounded Warrior Project for the minuscule amount of donations that actually go to programs meant to help veterans.  I also highlighted a number of veterans who felt like props and fundraising tools rather than actually getting help. Plus there’s the fact that the Wounded Warrior Project is against the 2nd Amendment. You can read all about it here: Stop Donating to the Wounded Warrior Project – They’re a Fraud Among the hundreds of comments from other veterans who agreed with the article and shared their own stories of being pawns in the WWP’s end game of making money, a number of people asked “what is an alternative organization I can give to in order to help vets?” A reader emailed me directly and told me to look into the Phoenix Patriot Foundation.  ...
