Say Uncle notes that Rush Limbaugh is now a big supporter of the Humane Society, which is anti-hunting. As one who knows a bit of the background of this, I believe Rush got sucked into this because of his beloved cat. But I am willing to bet I love dogs more than Rush loves his cat, and I am certainly not going to align myself with a group like the Humane Society because of it. There are better ways to support the care and treatment of pets.

Gun-Free Chicago: 5 Women Shot Dead Shopping

As is commonly known throughout the blogosphere among Second Amendment rights activists, Chicago has some of the most stringent gun control laws in the nation.

Yet, once again in this 'gun free zone,' i.e., a clothing store in the Chicago area, 5 women were gunned down as they shopped.

Add this one to the Mall shootings, Virginia Tech, and all the rest of the murdering rampages that have occurred of late in supposed 'gun free zones.'

Why doesn't the government just go ahead and come clean about the matter and admit they want us all to go 'gun free' so that thugs with guns can have free reign and rid the population of the expendable ones?
