Missouri Proposal to Destroy or Surrender Firearms

Missouri Democrats in the state House have proposed a bill that would force gun owners  to either surrender or destroy firearms including semi-automatic rifles with  detachable magazines and semi-automatic pistols with  fixed magazines that can  shoot more than 10 rounds before being reloaded.

Ammunition-feeding devices that can hold more than 10 rounds also would be  banned. Owners also could send their weapons to another state instead of  surrendering or destroying them.  Man that’s a relief!   The innane idea is here…

Montana Police Stand Against Obama and Feds

You may have heard who police are supporting more gun control measures, as proposed by Obama.  But, what we fail to see presented by the national media is that only certain sheriffs support gun control – appointed sheriffs, that is.  You see, those that have been appointed fear reprisals, if they don’t follow in the footsteps of gun-grabbing superiors.  On the other hand, law enforcement officials, who have been elected to office, hold another view and understand what “…shall not be infringed” actually means.  Accordingly, they are standing tall in the face of more federal mandates.  Montana is one such state and a “sheriffs first” bill has been introduced.

The so-called “sheriffs first” bill would require federal agents to get a sheriff’s permission before making arrests or serving warrants – or risk local kidnapping or trespassing charges.  The details are here…

Wisconsin Democrats Introduce Bill to Outlaw Hollow Points

GW:  I guess they’d rather people use full metal jacket bullets for everything.  I wonder if they’ve ever heard of the dangers of over-penetration – as in through attackers and then walls.  This type of legislation demonstrates, once again, how little gun grabbers understand ballistics and the subsequent and unintentional consequences of their dumb ideas.  Of course, innocents will be killed with richochets, as well, because of the inherent dangers of non-expanding ammo.  But, as long as they can “save one life” it doesn’t matter how many they sacrifice in the process.

The bill draft that provides whoever intentionally sells, transports or possesses any bullet that expands or flattens easily in the human body is guilty of a Class H felony.  This bill would outlaw 99% of all self-defense ammunition on the market, including most hunting ammunition.  Read what the whack jobs have cooked up here…

Obama Justice Department Reveals Truth About State of the Union Claims

Despite long odds, on Tuesday night, Barack Obama managed to turn in a State of the Union performance that was filled with more theatrical pandering than the event is typically known for.  Once again seeking to capitalize off tragedy by opting for emotional, rather than reasoned arguments, the President reiterated his support for increased background checks and bans on common semi-automatic firearms and their magazines, which he referred to as “weapons of war and massive ammunition magazines.”
As usual, Obama’s remarks were short on evidence that his gun control proposals would work.  Of course, that evidence is sorely lacking–and who would know that better than the experts at his own Justice Department? Read more

Gun Free Zones Option

“It’s reasonable to wonder, are people choosing gun-free zones to go carry out these massacres because they know they won’t be stopped?”state speaker Jase Bolger asked. “I don’t think it’s a coincidence that such monsters that are carrying these out are going to gun-free zones to do their massacre.”  The  “Michigan School Protection Act” may allow teachers to carry concealed pistols in schools.  Details here…
