Slaughter in Austrian school

I do wish the antis would concede that mass killings are not a uniquely American phenomenon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graz_school_shooting The perpetrator legally owned both firearms used in the shooting through a firearms ownership card (Waffenbesitzkarte) but did not have a firearms carrying ...

Re: The Supreme Court Unanimously Tells Mexico to Get Lost

Note that the above was posted on Slate.com as a an anti-gun diatribe. What it seems to come down to is that gun control proponents who want to be able to sue gun manufacturers are attempting to claim that the very existence of a commercial gun industry meets the technical legal definition of a Publ...

Re: The Supreme Court Unanimously Tells Mexico to Get Lost

But hey, the standard of progressivism is "if the result is exactly the same as if it were done on purpose, then as far as we're concerned it is on purpose. Outcome-based reality" :roll: Glad to see we have a Supreme Court that believes in that old-fashioned concept called personal respons...

Re: Fed Law Causes 16 states to Ban Suppressors

One would hope that states would in due course remove a requirement to register suppressors that there is simply no federal mechanism now to carry out the registration. Otherwise it's the Hayes Amendment at the state level. Hasn't this sort of sophistry ever been addressed on some other issue beside...

Ilhan Omar on guns (urgh)

I always sign the petitions emailed out by GOA and MNGOC to add my voice, even though living as I do in the bluest of districts it may not amount to much. Occasionally the offices in question respond with an auto-reply. Today I heard back from Ilhan Omar's office, and, well it's not for the faint of...

Nothing from Ranb since late February. Do you think maybe he really was a Democratic plant trying to convince gun owners not to vote Trump?

Re: Second Saturday Breakfast - 12 April

Will be there. Although I've got to say, have my taste buds died from old age or is their food not as good as it used to be?

Re: Guns At Buyback Ends Up Back On Streets In 16-Year-Old Hands

Re: House Judiciary Advances Concealed Carry Reciprocity

Three concerns: First, wouldn't some states argue that other state's permits use inapplicably different qualifications than in their states? Second, could the anti states respond by passing so many restrictions on where carry is allowed that an out of state permit would be virtually useless? And las...

Re: March 29th Capital Rally to Defend the 2A

I hope to make it but can't be sure. I wasn't well enough to attend the Feb. 26 Pro-Gun hearings; or the range open house on March 3.
