Good reading.
Heroes they were. Remember them and their spirit.....Guts.

question:
If the "Sequester" is going to furlough tens of thousands of policemen, FBI agents and other law enforcement officers (according to his Greatness, the O, even though he is either wrong or lying), then really, isn't disarming the peasants law abiding citizenry a bad idea?
Who is going to keep a lid onrampaging Democrats criminals?
Who is going to deal with all those thugs when the police are furloughed?
Since all we will have is crazy uncle Joe's double barreled shotgun......

Remember Waco
It all began 20 years ago today.
The ATF cowboys, in what was essentially a media stunt, began the broughaha which ended in the deaths of 67 men, women and children.
All so that the ATF could have it's publicity.
Look into the stupidity, the incompetency, and foolishness which led to this mess. Take a few minutes and learn.
Think the ATF is any better today? Any policing agency? Think LA and Chris Dorner.
Say a prayer for those 67 souls whose fate was determined, beginning 20 years ago.
And remember: Next time it could be you or me.
Or any group that "The Government" doesn't approve of.

third try the charm
The Para is finally what I would call reliable.
So I completed the 500 round torture test of the "new" Para LDA 3" .
500 rounds, no cleaning, and zero failures that were not ammo related (2 dud primers and one missing primer on the reloads, and an oversized. badly crimped/mutant load on the factory ammo.
I am glad that this pistol has passed the test. I can comfortably carry it with reasonable assurance the not only will it go bang when I need it to, but that it won't jam or fail in another way.
It is just a shame that it took 3 tries with Para to get it right.
DO you test your carry gun to see if it will work in less than perfect conditions? Will it work when you need it to? Can it go hundreds of rounds without a failure?
Are you sure enough that you will stake your life on it?

Bet this makes the "unruly" come out big time:
Guntersville authorities would confiscate guns of “unruly” individuals during disasters.
Yeah, like that'll work.
She must be getting advice from the Obama administration.

Why occasionally a cop needs his ass beaten
by the citizenry.
Just to keep the rest from pulling a stupid stunt like THIS.
Might make the rest of them think.
And behave.

Lying liars and their lies
We have to release illegal immigrants NOW because we will soon have to make hard choices on spending......
Much like we will supposedly have to shut down the USDA meat inspectors(and therefore the meat packing plants) because it is more effective as a terror tactic to do so than to furlough the management staff.
Same with the Air Traffic Controllers. Or the FAA. Or the parks. Or other departments.
Seems that they can't find some way to save 2.5% of their budget. The budget that grew from 2.9 trillion in 2008 to 3.8 trillion in 2011. But these assholes can't find a way to save 80 billion.
The Obama administration, congress and the rest of the government would rather shut down "essential services" than cut spending.
We should throw them all out. Time for the pitchforks and the ropes and a map of handy lampposts.
They think cuts and such are beneath their dignity? How much dignity will you have when the torches and ropes come out?
If they can't cut spending to prove a point, or to get their way, then they have abrogated their oath as senators, congressmen, and president. At which time we need to toss 'em out. With prejudice if need be.

Dear Sirs:
Dear Sirs:
I am a fan of Sig-Sauer pistols. Currently I own a 250 in 9mm, a 238, a 938 and a 1911-22. I own many other makes and brands as well. I purchase 3-5 firearms per year.
As you are no doubt aware, the State of New York has passed new laws which drastically limit the types of firearms which law abiding citizens of that state can purchase, and greatly restrict their freedoms. There is a boycott underway of firearms manufacturers and suppliers which limits sales to law enforcement to those items which can be purchased and possessed by every citizens of the state.
I strongly urge you to join this boycott of sales to NY state, county and local law enforcement personnel of firearms which would be illegal for non law enforcement citizens to own.
I realize that there is a large market for not only firearms, but also parts and services supplied to these law enforcement departments, but I urge you to consider the restrictions placed on the other market, the citizens of the state who also purchase your products.
Take a stand. Announce that you will not continue to seek contracts to supply firearms or magazines to law enforcement in the state of New York which cannot be purchased nor owned by any common citizen. Join the boycott.
It would be a shame for me to not be able to purchase, for reasons of principle, any more Sig-Sauer firearms.
Sincerely
This was sent to Sig-Sauer.
(I don't own any S+W firearms, but if you do, you might want to send them a letter:
S&W
- 800-331-0852 EXT 3627
- Email dgrier@Smith-Wesson.com
And then there is GLOCK. Again, I don't own any, but they will, along with S+W, be getting a letter.
Glock
- 770-432-1202 – Ask for Law Enforcement Sales
- Email Legal@Glock.US
H/T to Greylocke for the addresses and such
Watch the GOP fold
again.
They'll give up another of your rights, all to "get along".
Registration is a step towards confiscation. Ask the Germans prior to WWII.
"Democrats say that keeping records of private sales is necessary to enforce any new law"
The GOP will not even bother to get something else in the negotiation as they give away our gun rights.
You stupid bastards need to stand fast and say "HELL NO".
If you have to negotiate, then get something in return. Say a repeal of GCA 1968. Something.
Don't just roll onto your back and spread your legs, Senators. Fight.

They had to give Bail
to Oscar Pistorius.
They couldn't put him under House Arrest.
Nowhere to put the ankle bracelet....

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.

Looks like
Beretta is gonna bail out of Maryland.
“All I can tell you is, Mr. Beretta said, ‘There always seems to be a problem with Maryland.’ ”
Wonder if we can get 'em to come to Indiana? We got plenty of skilled folks looking for jobs, we are fairly 2nd Amendment friendly.....

HEH
Oh that we could force the folks from Chicago and other liberals from Illinois who move to Indiana to read THIS.
Maybe make 'em read and sign a paper stating that they moved here to get away from the liberal shithole they helped create, so stop trying to change their new home to be like the one they escaped from.

Indiana ranks pretty low in the Brady 's eyes.
Which is a large part of the reason I live here.

So I am watching Good Morning America
And the coverage of the accident where the Fence at Daytona apparently didn't completely protect the spectators.
The biggest question: Should they cancel the race out of respect for the fans that were injured?
This is the sort of attitude which is leading to the decline of the American Spirit and culture.

Even in liberal (and Democratically controlled) Lake County, Indiana
The gun control push has failed.
Seems that the commissioners chose freedom over control.
Seems that the commissioners chose freedom over control.
Lake commissioners stick to their gun shows (link)
Despite an ignorant, lying Sheriff, the county commissioners chose to stand for the citizens that elected them, and chose to reject his call for an end to gun shows.
This push is, of course, from the Chicago anti-gun liberals, and likely funded by the Bloomberg anti-gun PAC, Independence USA.
Kudos to the Lake County, Indiana commissioners. Our Sheriff should be beaten Tossed booted Fired, if only because he lied, and because he doesn't know the law and can't be bothered to research it. Is it too much to ask that that he chief law enforcement officer in the county know the laws, and be truthful about his statements?
Freedom:
What does "Freedom" mean to you?
It means many things to each individual.
Does it mean to be left alone, to have barriers to prosperity removed , to have a level playing field? To have the security to succeed? Or the freedom to fail? The ability to protect yourself, and to determine your own future and your own fortune? To have the ability to purchase (and possess) the tools you need to ensure your own physical security and to feed, house and clothe yourself? To be able to choose where you live, and whom you associate with, and make your own determination as to how you will provide for yourself and your family? To have the freedom to succeed and follow your dreams? To starve if that failure occurs?
Or does it mean something else?
To many, it means security. Security to go to work, to come home and eat dinner. Security to watch TMZ or to spend an hour watching "Survivor". To live in a secure bubble, that security provided by the big daddy bear government. By someone else, someone who can make those hard decisions. Someone who you can give your loyalty to, in exchange for a slight loss of liberties in order that you will feel safe. To live in the zone that is defined for you, in your caste level and your place in society. In a place where rules are made to reflect the lowest common denominator? Where intrusive rules are in place to prevent what MIGHT happen, in order to protect the collective, albeit at a loss of freedom and action.
I fear that kind of security, that faux freedom.
I prefer the other kind. The kind that allows me to succeed, or fail. The kind that enables me to win or lose according to my abilities and the abilities of my compatriots. The kind where I have a level playing field to pit my wits and abilities against others, and let the chips fall where they may. Where I am responsible for my existence, not Big Brother or his elites. Where I have few rules which I must obey, only needing to not harm others or the society in which I live. Where the safety net is slack, and missing in some areas. Where i must provide only for myself, my family, and my friends and those who I choose to give to, not nameless, faceless people whose subsistence is taken from me by the barrel of a gun.
I prefer my version of "freedom" rather than the other.I prefer to hold to the idea of freedom to take an individual approach to my responsibility and security, rather than a collective approach to safety and security. I'd prefer to see the freedom to choose and act, rather than one which denies us that right.
The choice is simple: Serf or citizen? Sheep or sheepdog? Rights of the individual, or the collective herding us into the appropriate pen for processing.
I know what I choose. Do you?
Freedom does not come without a price.
That price is eternal vigilance. The willingness to fight for that freedom. To stand up and say "It stops here". To be the force which stops it.
Are you willing to pay the price?
