Second Amendment News Roundup for 7/31/07

Scroll down for the news:

Here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

The Volokh Conspiracy has a timely article on the perils of so-called 'hate crimes' legislation:

Speaking of hate crimes, A Keyboard and a .45 shows evidence that censorship is involved in the debate over hate crimes legislation, which is a First Amendment issue (and this eventually impacts Second Amendment issues as well):

Alphecca reports that the Los Angeles Times thinks that the notion of the Second Amendment being an 'individual right' is a radical idea. ROFL!! I suppose the imbeciles never read the Federalist Papers or the writings of Jefferson or any of the Framers! Read this, but be ready to get boiling mad:

Alphecca also reports that the nation of England is having a hissy fit over the fact that Olympic shooters are being granted a temporary exemption from the country's anti-handgun laws (I am continually embarrassed by the home country's incessant irrationality about such things):

The Buckeye Firearms Association says that the Castle Doctrine bill is gaining support in Ohio:

Say Uncle reports that yet another gun dealer has been targeted by the ATF:

Snow Flakes in Hell has more on the demise of the Brady Campaign's blog:

The Bitch Girls have a few choice words for Hillary Clinton's proposal to take tax dollars to create a national academy to 'train young people for public service'--which is Hillary-speak for taking kids and making them socialists who wish to expand big government:

Nicki at The Liberty Zone provides excellent commentary on Switzerland's new proposal for gun control--the first attempt at such a thing in the nation's history:

The McCarville Report states that Congress recently pulled a fast one on its supposed attempt to 'pass earmark reform legislation,' as it promised to do during the 2006 election cycle. Apparently, the Democrats were all talk, for now the new legislation does absolutely nothing to address earmarks, much to the chagrin of Oklahoma Republican Senator Tom Coburn:

Red's Trading Post provides information on several ways we can help with the costs of his legal defense against the ATF, which will exceed $90,000.00. As you can see, unless a person is independently wealthy, there is no way one can afford such an expense. And the ATF apparently has no plans on letting up on their relentless and LAWLESS persecution of Red's:

Speaking of the ATF, The War on Guns reports that the oppressive, jackbooted thug unit of the Justice Department has shown absolutely no signs of backing down on its war against gun owners and dealers:

Of Arms and the Law says that Bill Richardson has flip-flopped on his views on gun shows. As I have said all along, that weasel is no more trustworthy than Hillary Clinton:

Open Carry has a thread on their forum you are going to love. It concerns the ATF and its vendetta:
