Washington State, Enforce New Gun Law Fully and Mercilessly…No Really

My regular readers my see the title to this article and think I’ve lost it.  Let me assure you it isn’t so.  And if you are a gun control zealot thinking I am going support your ideology…well…have fun with that. Washington State recently, through a ballot initiative bankrolled by Billionaire freedom hater Michael Bloomberg, bamboozled the voters who were ignorant about what they were voting on and making them believe that ballot initiative I-594 would do anything to stop crime.  It won’t. What it will do is drive up costs, hassle gun owners and businesses and be an all around pain in the ass. That is why it must be enforced to the FULL extent of its power.  I want this law to be hammered home as it is written. Ah yes…as it is written.  You see, there’s the rub. When gun controllers get together in their confabs to...

Defenders of Ferguson Threatened By Feds At Gunpoint

Ronald Reagan famously once said: “Government is not the solution to our problem…government is the problem.” I am therefore not surprised that white Oath Keepers were trying to keep the city of Ferguson from burning to the ground by protecting stores and property from being torched by out of town agitators and race baitors, the Obama administration mobilized the feds to shut it down.  I guess having armed citizens doing the job of keeping people safe was making the government look bad. From Liberty Unyielding: After a horrific night of arson, vandalism, and looting in Ferguson, Mo. last week following a grand jury decision, members of a militia calling itself the Oath Keepers have been arriving to guard over the persons and property the local police are unable to protect. The city initially welcomed the group’s assistance, but as word of their presence spread, state and federal politicians allegedly...

Has Florida Outlawed Well Regulated Militias?

Despite not being an open carry state, nor its moderately high cost of a CCW, Florida is not known for being a hotbed of Gun Control fever.  That is why I was so surprised to hear about Florida Statute 790.29.  The statute expressly prohibits paramilitary training; teaching or participation.  Basically anything that could very loosely be described as a militia. I heard about it because a man was facing 30 years because he violated it. Here’s the statute in it’s entirety: 790.29 Paramilitary training; teaching or participation prohibited.— (1) This act shall be known and may be cited as the “State Anti-paramilitary Training Act.” (2) As used in this section, the term “civil disorder” means a public disturbance involving acts of violence by an assemblage of three or more persons, which disturbance causes an immediate danger of, or results in, damage or injury to the property or person of any other individual...

The Betrayal of Chris Christie

No doubt Chris Christie, head of the Republican Governor’s Association, will attempt to take credit for the upset wins by Republican Gubernatorial Candidates in Maryland, Illinois and Massachusetts.  Yet the bullying loudmouth, Soprano wannabee from New Jersey is just a two faced opportunist looking out for his own self interest and should not be trusted or praised by Republicans. Chris Christie abandoned Republican hopes for New York, not only by refusing to contribue RGA funds in helping Republican candidate Rob Astorino take on Gov. Andrew Cuomo but by being his usual bloviating loudmouth of an ass self and saying this: “We don’t pay for landslides and we don’t invest in lost causes.  If the New York race becomes competitive, I’ll consider campaigning in the New York race, but right now, by the public polls, there’s a lot more competitive races like this one in Connecticut.” First of all, by...

Police in NY Demand Facebook Profile and PASSWORD When Applying For Permit

Once again Cuomo and his rights shredding legislation, the SAFE Act, has matriculated to its inevitable evolution, that of casting off any pretense that law abiding citizens have privacy, rights or freedom within the Empire State. In Watervliet, NY the police department is REQUIRING that petitioners for pistol permits hand over their Facebook profiles as well as their PASSWORD.  Would you like my pin# and a key to my safety deposit box at the bank too?  Heck, why don’t I invite you over on the night of my wedding and let you sleep with my wife all Braveheart primae noctis style. It’s getting to the point that I’m not even surprised at Cuomo’s corrupt administration and blatant disregard for the rights of his citizens.  Citizens…it’s also getting to the point that I wonder how long New Yorkers will even warrant being called that; for they are on the fast track to...

Cuomo Campaign Throws Tantrum: Forces Factory Worker To Go Home Over NRA Shirt

In the film version of “1776”, when the vote on whether to open debate on Independence comes up the  resolution is tied.  The Representative from Rhode Island then saunters in, returning from the lavatory, and is questioned on how Rhode Island stands on the question of debate. The response from Stephen Hopkins was as follows: Well, in all my years I ain’t never heard, seen nor smelled an issue that was so dangerous it couldn’t be talked about. Hell yeah! I’m for debating anything. Rhode Island says yea! Alas, in New York, apparently Mr. Cuomo says “NAY”.  And I’m not talking about him avoiding televised debates with his opponent Rob Astorino. I’m talking about his recent trip to an alternative power company in upstate New York. In an exclusive, a reader of Bullets First who works for the hydrogen fuel cell company, Plug Power, passed along the following email that...

Even When In the Right, Gun Owners Get in Trouble With the Law

In two cases, in different parts of the country, law abiding citizens used their 2nd Amendment rights to defend themselves against criminals looking to either rape, rob and murder.  Unfortunately for Justice, both of the gun owners are now facing criminal charges. In the first case, a Wheeling man, Chris Harris and his fiance CC Roxby were heading home from church at about 8:30 at night when they were surrounded by a group of 9 men threaten to beat him and rape his girlfriend.  When the 9 thugs approached to make good on their threats Harris took out his sidearm while Roxby dialed 911.  Some of the assailants backed off but one spoke up challenging that Harris’s gun was fake.  As the assailant moved forward and the rest of his gang, now emboldened, followed suit, Harris made his mistake.  Instead of putting a round square in Mr. Would Be...

Entrepreneurs Railroaded by 1986 Gun Control Bill

In 1986 a gun control bill ludicrously dubbed the Firearm Owners Protection Act passed through congress.  It had a wide ranging number of gun control measures but the most prevalent one is that it banned the manufacture and sale of machine guns built after 1986. All automatic machine guns built prior to that year were still allowed to be transferred after paying an extortion transfer fee and special stamp tax.  Side note, didn’t we fight a revolution back in 1776 against stamp taxes?  (yes, stamp, same tyranny).  The number of legal machine guns with proper paperwork in the US stands at around 196,000 weapons. The point is that if you want a fully automatic machine gun you are allowed to get one so long as it was made prior to 1986 and you can afford it.  Since there is a finite supply the prices for these weapons have skyrocketed over...

Company Fires Employee For Having Gun…IN HIS OWN HOME

Under the guise of “zero tolerance”, gun hating private community Lakes of the Four Seasons (LOFS) has fired a seasonal landscaping employee of 21 years because he was a gun owner.  And no, I don’t mean that he was carrying a gun while working, nor did he have a gun in his car on LOFS property. Nino Ferlaino had worked for LOFS for 21 years before this summer when, in conversation amongst coworkers, he acknowledged that he believed in the 2nd Amendment and kept a gun at home. Two days following this conversation, on July 2nd, Ferlaino’s supervisor, Doug Weiss, approached him and asked him if he carried a gun. Ferlaino admitted that he owned a gun but never carried it while working. Let me interject something.  While in Ferlaino’s mind he was just having a pleasant break time conversation among coworkers, someone in that group heard “gun owner”...

Enough Pressure Finally Mounts and Shaneen Allen Will Be Treated Like A Wife Beater

If you are a regular to this site then you know the tale of Shaneen Allen, the Philadephia single mom who took a wrong turn into New Jersey (because all turns into New Jersey are wrong and should be avoided) and was facing 10 years because she informed the officer that she had her legal sidearm with her. I told you how the DA and the Judge both refused to let her enter a pretrial intervention program that would spare her jail time and was created for people like her, no criminal record, first time mistake type people. Then I told you about Ray Rice beating his wife unconscious and the SAME DA and Judge GAVE Ray Rice the pre trial intervention. Now I finally have some good news to tell you in relation to this case. Because of all the outrage and phone calls and emails sent to the...

NJ’s War on Women: Wife Beater Free While Single Mom Makes Wrong Turn Faces 3 Years

I always had a feeling that parts of New Jersey were just cesspools but the overt war on women that some people within the state are waging is just downright disgusting. Firstly, you have Ray Rice, who beat his wife unconscious in an elevator, dragged her out and left her head in the doorway in the tracks of the closing elevator doors as she laid there unmoving. Here is the video if you haven’t yet seen it:   (warming: it is vicious and graphic) How did Atlantic County prosecutor Jim McClain decide to proceed with this brutal case of spousal abuse?  Why, he entered Ray Rice into a pre-trial intervention program (PTI) for first time offenders and Superior Court Judge Michael Donio signed off on it, thereby sparing Rice from jail time. What are some of the benefits to the PTI program? If PTI is successfully completed, there is no record of conviction...

Obama “respects the rule of law” when he isn’t too busy ignoring it

President Obama is some piece of work.  Audacity of Hope?  More like the audacity of a two faced hypocrite. Obama has the nerve, the gall, to respond to a petition for his action in freeing US Marine Tahmooressi from a Mexican jail after he got lost in the desert and wound up on the wrong side of the border with his legally owned US firearms, by saying the White House “respects the rule of law.” To wit: “We respect the rule of law and expect the judicial process of sovereign nations to protect other U.S. citizens who might find themselves in similar circumstances in the future.” So as one of our own Marines rots in a Mexican jail, Mr. Obama is taking a play out of Gov. Christie’s playbook and letting things “play out”.  Great.  Because Mexico is KNOWN as a bastion for judicial integrity and fairness.  Speaking of Mr. Obama’s...

Gov Christie Won’t Get Off His FAT ASS to Protect Single Mother

Gov. Chris Christie is once again showing what kind of man he is.  Instead of being a man of principles and action he has revealed himself to once again being a loudmouth New Jersey RINO blowhard. Single mother and Philidelphia resident Shaneen Allen was pulled over last year during a traffic stop after she accidentally crossed a bridge and left her home state of  Pennsylvania and entered New Jersey.  She had a Pennsylvania concealed carry permit and showed it to the officer when he approached her vehicle.  But the permit isn’t valid in New Jersey, which has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation and as such she was arrested on the spot. “As I let them know that (that she had a firearm), that’s when they started to lock me up.  I wasn’t a threat to the police.” -Shaneen Allen Being honest with the police about...

Political Correctness Runs Amok as Student Arrested For Writing About Shooting a DINOSAUR

Oh, South Carolina…I expect better from you. On the other hand, this incident takes place in a public school, and those have long been known to be bastions of liberal asininity so I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised. Summerville High School Freshman Alex Stone was given a creative writing assignment for his English class. That short assignment written in “facebook-like update form” (don’t get me started on why students don’t seem to actually write papers anymore)  would lead the school administrators to calling the police and Alex Stone getting arrested. What threats and dangerous writings did Stone put into his work of fiction?  He wrote a story about shooting his neighbors pet dinosaur with a dinosaur hunting gun “he purchased to take care of the business.” Now…I guess PETEA is getting involved.  You know, People for the Ethical Treatment of EXTINCT Animals. What if Stone wrote about being attacked by...

Obama, a walking cluster@#(k as commander in chief

As I was talking with a friend last night he asked if Obama could be playing so stupid as to be brilliant. I assured him it was no act.  The man is just a craven cowardly America hating, soldier resenting socialist with dreams to diminish the American spirit to the point that we forgo our entrepreneurial spirit and become beholden to the government for all our needs. In case you haven’t noticed…I’m a little peeved with his highness, King Barack. As a former soldier, the recent stories that have been making the headlines recently have resonated with me in both their absurdity and the disgraceful manner in which the Commander in Chief has reacted to both. On one hand you have Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi whose only true crime was getting lost in the desert and being found by Mexicans.  Despite what the Sanctuary City crowd would have you...

Congressman Laying Groundwork For Executing American Citizens

No doubt the US government can snuff out the life of one innocent anonymous American citizen without giving it too much thought, but when it comes to systematically executing a group of armed citizens the federal government must first lay the groundwork in order to mollify the public. Much like the propaganda practices of Nazi Germany, the Federal government knows it needs to bamboozle the public into accepting the most ludicrous policies as “necessary”. You see, the systematic murdering of innocent citizens perpetrated openly by the government would not be tolerated by the masses.  But if you lie BIG enough and LONG enough and do so CONTINUOUSLY when you finally take your tyrannical actions and execute the aforementioned innocent citizens, the masses will view it through lenses that the government has lowered over their eyes. So what is the lie that is being peddled now?  The lie that the...

BLM: Bureau of Land MISmanagement

So by now you have probably heard about the BLM acting like cattle rustlers and running scared when a patriot and his friends showed up to draw a line in the sand. Well, when the Bureau of Land Management isn’t busy cattle rustling and nearly murdering a man’s family they are busy slaughtering wild horses. Now, the management part of the BLM is to round up strays and try to find them homes and if not, then they can be sold to slaughter.  But WILD Horses are actually protected by FEDERAL LAW…namely the Wild-Free Roaming Horses and Burro Act of 1971, which bans wild horses to being sold for slaughter. But much like how the BLM tries to stamp out the freedom loving American spirit in it’s citizens whose land they covet, so too do they seem to want to stamp out the wild spirit of the American West.  Namely...

Quo Vadis, America?

Quo Vadis translates to the question: Where are you going? It is also a 1951 film covering the ending of Nero’s Emperorship of Rome. As I watched this film I couldn’t help but see parallels of first century Rome and modern America, mainly in the leadership that both share. I have thought that President Obama was just a socialist tyrant but looking at his presidency through a Roman lens I wonder if he is not rather a raving lunatic who plays a metaphorical fiddle while America burns. In Quo Vadis, Nero doesn’t think himself a lunatic.  Quite the contrary, Nero views himself as a artist and his vision is being hampered by the ignorant masses who do not appreciate his “gifts.”  He is falsely bolstered by the sycophants around him and no one dares utter words against him lest they be banished or killed. Nero’s arrogance towards his people...
