Gun Grabber Politician Busted at Airport with Gun

So, he’s not the first person to attempt to board an airplane with a handgun.  But, this “do-as-I-say” state senator from Chicago, Donne Trotter, has strongly opposed concealed carry legislation.  So, he’s not the first two-faced politician, either.  At least he stated to authorities that the gun was legally registered in Chicago.  Oh, yeah.  He’s not the first liar in politics, either.  The account of the two-faced, hypocritical, gun-grabbing, liar is here…

More Atlantic Salmon in Michigan Waters

Michigan became world-famous when it made a daring effort to revitalize the Great Lakes sport fishery by stocking Pacific salmon in the 1960s. While Chinook and Coho fishing still remain very good overall, Michigan is now looking at residents of the other ocean to beef up the Great Lakes fishery: Atlantic salmon.

Highly prized around the world for their sporting characteristics, Atlantic salmon are currently thriving in the St. Marys River, theAtlantic salmon connecting water that drains Lake Superior and flows into Lake Huron. Michigan Department of Natural Resources’ Fisheries Division personnel hope to expand the Atlantic salmon fishery further into Lake Huron. Read more

No Straight-Wall Rifle Cartridges in Zone III This Year

By Glen Wunderlich

After having the chance to participate in the legislative process on behalf of House Bill 5249 and giving testimony in its support, I really thought the bill would pass this year.  Being able to use straight-wall cartridges in rifles in the southern “shotgun” zone seemed to be a  no-brainer.  I know I am with thousands of ethical sportsmen who are disappointed in the news, but here is the latest status direct from Matt Lori’s (R-District 59) office based on my request for information:

Dear Mr. Wunderlich,
Thank you for your email to Representative Lori, which will be drawn to his attention.
 At this late stage in the Legislative Session, it does not seem likely that the Senate is going to move the bill forward.  The bill is not on the most recent agenda for the Outdoor Recreation and Tourism’s next meeting.  Without that movement forward it is unlikely that the bill will be back to the House for a final vote during “lame duck”.

 Representative Lori very much appreciates your support, and will likely re-introduce the bill next year.
 Sincerely
Susan Martin Chief of Staff District 59
