Five Moments of Liberals Mocking Gun Owners via Foot in Mouth Idiocy

So as we near the end of the year it is no surprise that liberal gun grabbing zealots have said and done a lot of idiotic things to try and defend their losing arguments against the 2nd Amendment and those who believe in the right to keep and bear arms. But when it comes down to it, what the liberal gun control crowd really does with their hyperbolic blathering is reveal just how ignorant, intolerant and hateful they are. Our Friends at libertyunyielding.com has come up with a list of some of the most outrageous things muttered by rabid, mouth breathing gun controllers this year. In short order: Washington DC Police Employee Claims Second Amendment Was only for ‘When the British Were Coming’ Hillary Clinton Says Gun Owners ‘Terrorize the Majority of People’ New York Daily News Calls Second Amendment Supporter a Gun Nut, Gun Worshiper, and Zealot for winning...

Out of Control Police Execute Innocent PUPPY That Was Walking Away From Them

Regular readers of this site know that I’m pretty fair when it comes to my viewpoints on police.  Sure, I will lambaste a crooked cop who bullies the innocent and hides behind his shield when violating the civil rights of the innocent but I will also defend the officers who get railroaded based on some trumped up race card because the 280 pound attacker trying to beat him to death happened to be a different color than him. But sometimes a situation occurs that makes me despise the entire profession because not only does some rogue crooked cop do something reprehensible but it is followed by an organizational stone wall for justice as the officer’s higher ups circle the wagons around him. In Racine, Wisconsin such an event took place. Police were called in after a puppy had defecated on a neighbors yard.  The owner of the dog, Kurt...

Criminals and Sexual Predators Love Gun Control, Just Ask Andrew Cuomo

I think it it finally coming together, the reasoning WHY New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is so enamored by gun control that he broke procedure, hijacked the legislative process and jammed the SAFE Act down the throats of New Yorkers in the dead of night; he’s a criminal. You see, Andrew Cuomo has been called the Patron Saint of Wife Beaters and Rapists for his track record of letting men off the hook who have abused women.  Women, mind you, that might have had the ability to change the circumstances had they been armed. Going back to the year BEFORE he was governor, then Attorney General Cuomo, let admitted wife beater Judge James Peck off the hook.  Why exactly did Cuomo choose to engage in Honest Services Fraud with his corrupt use of prosecutorial discretion?  This minute long video from 2010 clears it up concisely: It would be one...

Why Gun Control Laws Suck

Because frankly, guns saves lives while gun control costs them. A law abiding citizen who exercises their right to keep and bear a firearm does so for the protection of themselves and others.  A criminal with malicious intent in their heart will use ANY weapon they can, ignore all laws therein, and will be creative in their want of destruction. The recent Ottawa shooter?  He was banned from gun ownership.  So much for gun control. A man attacked 4 Cops in Queens on Thursday with a HATCHET.  Injuring 2 with one still being in critical condition after being struck in the head.  You can buy a hatchet in any sports store or Wal-Mart.  In a twist the only innocent person injured by gunfire was a women who was struck by the police’s hail of bullets when they shot the hatchet wielding assailant. Take a moment though…this happened in New...

The Flipside – A Comedy News Show That Doesn’t Hate America

Truth be told, the Colbert Show is funny and the Daily Show has its moments but then Jon Stewart will take a hard left and jump the rails from being a fair game comic to a liberal idealogue.  Suffice it to say that I had long wished that there were a fun show covering news topics that didn’t hate my viewpoints and values…you know…America. I’ve had enough diatribes by Jon Stewart about how guns are the problem, or Stephen Colbert using satire to make gun rights supporters look like idiots while his character supports them. It was to the point that it was like watching a viewable version of BSNBC…whoops, I meant MSNBC…hmmm…or did I, they both fit. It was with great delight that I found that there was at least one show out there that is bucking the trend, aptly named, “The Flipside.” The brainchild of Rodney Lee Conover, Conover...

Backwards Bullet…what happens when you load a bullet backwards in a casing? [Video]

I have to admit, I never thought of this, but if you load your ammunition and choose to load the bullet in reverse it has some surprising results. The theory is that by putting the concave portion of the bullet at the top, the shooter will have effectively created a projectile that will work as a hollow point round. In the following video from the Ammo Channel, the host puts this theory to the test using .308 Winchester rounds that he loaded himself. He uses both the traditional loading and the reverse loading then shoots into both ballistic jelly as well as steel plate. I found the results to be rather interesting but not unsurprising. Now, while the reverse bullet causes more damage I do have to wonder on the limitations of accuracy and distance that such a bullet might suffer.  Think of throwing an asymmetrical football with a...

Pretty Pin Ups With Guns, Utah is NOT Pleased [Video]

In a story that mashes together the reserved nature of Mormon dominated Utah, with the sexualized fits of fancy you would expect from a pin up calendar, a bit of situation has arisen in the Beehinve State. The calendar maker, Hot Shots, filmed a promotional video of their models during the photoshoot that took place both in the desert flats as well has the mountain peaks of Utah.  The film and subsequent calendar utilized equipment from the Utah National Guard, both vehicles and weaponry. Some in the state of Utah are not happy about it and as such are demanding an investigation into the entire situation.  I’m not exactly sure what they are looking to investigate as the video clearly shows that the bikini clad models are firing live ammo and rolling around in tanks and armored vehicles, not props. Here, take a look for yourself.  Note, there are...

Cuomo To Sign SAFE ACT 2 Into Law If He Gets Reelected

If Governor Cuomo is reelected the framework is all ready in place for passage of SAFE ACT 2.  While the Cuomo administration is hesitant to refer to it under that name during an election cycle, it will still be one of the first things he does upon his new term even if he has to manipulate the legislative process again in order to ram it through. Here are the 10 key points of SAFE ACT 2 that will punish law abiding citizens, legal businesses and in general diminish the sparse amount of liberty that remains in the increasingly appropriate named “Empire State”.  My commentary italicized. 1. Safe Storage – Requires that weapons be stored with a safety locking device or in a safe storage depository when left outside the immediate possession or control of the owner or other lawful possessor.  Failure to do so will result in a Class A misdemeanor....

Here’s What Liberty Looks Like When Tyranny Gets Shredded [Video]

Since 1935, a law has been on the books in North Carolina requiring law abiding citizens of Durham County to register their firearms.  It took nearly 80 years, but the General Assembly finally figured out that registration of the law abiding does nothing but set the groundwork for confiscation by a tyrannical government. Armed with the epiphany that gun registration doesn’t stop criminals the General Assembly, earlier this year, unanimously repealed the 1935 law with Senate Bill 226 / S.L. 2014-11.  The repeal was ratified on June 19th. Though it took a little while, the State of North Carolina finally granted the Durham County Clerk of Court, Archie Smith, permission to destroy the records.  The following video shows those how tyranny get’s shredded. As the Durham County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page stated: Perhaps the most significant time-lapse video of paper shredding you may ever watch. After I saw the video I can’t...

Ghost Guns: Because Freedom Will Find a Way

With the advent of the affordable 3D printer and the PC connected milling machine, I recall the movie Jurassic Park.  In that movie Dr. Ian Malcolm, played by Jeff Goldblum, made an observation when Jurassic Park’s Creator, John Hammond, was explaining the measures they put in place to control the dinosaurs.  In particular, by making all the animals female they removed the ability for reproduction that wasn’t monitored and registered by the facility. To which Malcolm responded with: John, the kind of control you’re attempting simply is… it’s not possible. If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it’s that life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh… well, there it is. In response one of the technicians quipped: “You’re implying that a group composed entirely of female animals will…...

What Soldiers Do In Their Downtime

For all of us who have served in the armed forces, the term “hurry up and wait” is not an unfamiliar concept.  Despite what the movies and action films would have you believe, the life of a soldier is best described (especially in a war zone) as: Long periods of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror. To put it lightly, there is a LOT of downtime.  And there is only so much downtime a person can take before they need to find some avenue of mental stimulation. Yes, there are things to do, but there are only so many times you can sweep a floor or check your gear before it just becomes punitive.  And yes, lifting weights and playing cards are options but they can become repetitive.  So every once in a while some high speed low drag trooper comes up with an idea and gets his...

Everytown For Gun Safety Unintentionally Makes Great Case For Gun Rights

It’s always funny when gun controllers use situations in where a law abiding gun owner could have or has made a difference as reasons to push forth more gun control.  I recently wrote an article about a woman who saved her husband’s life while he was being beaten by a group of brass knuckle wearing thugs, Mom’s Demand Action pointed to that as a reason why guns should be banned in parks. It therefore comes as no surprise when I come across a video in which the message of the gun controllers does exactly the opposite of the intent. The following video was produced by Bloomberg organization Everytown for Gun Safety.  The video shows a situation that is made possible by a gun control mindset: Let’s point out some fails on this one. First, restraining orders are like gun free zones, they only work if a bad guy listens...

When you go shooting, don’t forget the sunscreen…seriously

As gun owners, sportsmen, hunters and the like, we often spend a great deal of time outdoors under the harsh glare of the sun, be it shooting at an outdoor range, hunting or just getting in tune with nature.  Too often we have taken for granted the effects that nature, namely the sun, has on our skin.  This is partly true because we believe what are eyes tell us. If we don’t see dark moles, if we don’t see sunburn, if we don’t see freckles then we assume we aren’t getting too much sun and therefore we are safe. I admit that I myself have fallen into this belief. But like many outdoorsmen, shooters etc. I spend a great deal of time in the sun and have finally realized that it is the damage that you DON’T see that is the most serious. Below is a short, three minute...

Bloomberg loses ANOTHER election he tried to buy – Pro Gun Sheriff Triumphant

This time in Milwaukee, the money juggernaut that is Michael Bloomberg failed to buy a primary election for his anti gun candidate for Sheriff.   In the Democratic primary for Sheriff of Milwaukee county pro gun incumbent Sheriff David Clarke had to fight off not only his challenger but also Bloomberg with a carpet bag full of $150,000. That was the amount that Bloomberg spent to try and defeat Sheriff Clarke.  That amount is also more than Clarke and his opponent Chris Moews spent combined on their own campaigns. Fortunately the voters of Milwaukee County would not be bamboozled by the big city huckster and his money and Clarke won his primary by a margin of 52-48.  He runs unopposed in November and as such has all but assured that he will continue to proudly and justly serve the people of Milwaukee. I am a little surprised that the...

Tony Stewart Recklessly Kills a Man, Time to Ban All Cars

The title of this article is steeped with sarcasm.  But it is used to illustrate the absurdity that gun controllers like to levy upon guns by applying it elsewhere.  In case you haven’t heard, this past Saturday night in Canandaigua, NY, professional racecar driver, Tony Stewart, ran over and killed a fellow driver who got out of his vehicle and tried to confront Stewart while the race was still on. First and foremost, dumb idea.  Even under a caution flag, these cars were whizzing around the dirt track at speeds of 55+ mph.  And while my sympathies go out to the family of Kevin Ward Jr. willingly placing yourself in harms way in order to pick a fight is not really the safest thing to do. With that being said, as you can see in the following video, it is unclear whether Stewart actually swerved INTO Ward as he...

The Boys of Pointe Du Hoc and Reagan’s Speech Honoring Their Sacrifice

This site isn’t just about guns…it’s about liberty.  And sometimes, especially on this day, the anniversary of D-Day, we should take a moment to remember that freedom has rarely been given and has mostly been won. How is freedom won?  At the point of a sword, at the tip of a spear, at the muzzle of a gun…with brave men and women willing to die for the achievement or preservation of liberty.  Like the boys of Pointe Du Hoc: I shiver to think that a mere 70 years since so many gave so much for the liberation of a foreign land, that we find ourselves on the precipice of losing our liberty through apathy and acquiescence. Corrupt government agencies targeting American citizens to disagree with policy. Over reaching big brother agencies trampling on civil rights.  The executive branch, backed by billionaires, seeking to undermine our last refuge of resistance....

Guns are like Motorcycle Helmets…helpful tools when needed

It’s a funny thing when you think about it, but I have had to use my personal firearm more times to protect myself than I had my motorcycle helmet with a score of 1 to nothing. Well, that changed today.  While taking an early morning ride a car in front of me stopped short and I applied my brakes a bit too heavily and hit some broken pavement and went sliding across the street.  Was I badly injured?  No.  Though the road rash on my arm and leg are not pretty to look at. Fortunately, though it is not required in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I was wearing my DOT Approved Motorcycle Helmet.  Because I had the TOOLS available to me my scalp did not suffer the same fate as my arm and knee. The TOOL did it’s job and I remained safe. I’m sure some of my long...

Let’s Not Forget What Memorial Day Is Really About

I like a three day weekend as much as the next guy.  I enjoy picnics and baseball, hot dogs and hamburgers and all the other trappings of Memorial Day weekend. But in our leisure, let us never forget what Memorial Day actual is. It is a day set aside, for us to remember that good men and women laid down their lives for us to enjoy our way of life.  They answered the call their country sent out and gave fully of themselves in their duty.  They have not gone forth as conquerors but as liberators. As Colin Powell so eloquently put it in 2003: “We have gone forth from our shores repeatedly over the last hundred years and we’ve done this as recently as the last year in Afghanistan and put wonderful young men and women at risk, many of whom have lost their lives, and we have...
