Second Amendment News Roundup for 7/7/09

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

Kurt Hofmann sounds the alarm on legislation in Congress giving AG Eric Holder the authority to arbitrarily declare certain orgs as 'hate groups.' And that includes gun organizations and gun owners.

Codrea: Ammo Regs Mean Violation of Gun Rights

Let's cut right to the chase here, shall we? Ammunition regulations and/or bans are a form of gun bans. If you can't buy ammo for your firearm, then what good is it?

And this is exactly how the antis plan it. Without banning a single gun, they can render them useless by going after the ammunition.

David Codrea takes a look at this, and writes about an encounter he had on this issue some time ago, in today's Gun Rights Examiner.

Read it and pass it along to a friend.

To be fair, why don't we just force book stores owned by gays and lesbians to provide a section of books written by the Fred Phelps nutcases, telling homosexuals they will roast in hell for all eternity? The same principle applies--the loss of liberty on the part of business owners to steer their businesses as they see fit.

Blogonomicon has a MUST-read entitled, 'Clinging.'

*'Post-Heller Junk Science'--the antis now want to use science to regulate the 2nd Amendment into non-existence.
*'When We Said Wealth Redistribution, We Mean YOUR Wealth'--these typical liberals show their rank hypocrisy when it comes to taxes. A MUST read!

Second Amendment News Roundup for 9/12/08

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

Today along with a few of our regulars, we highlight some very good bloggers who unfortunately do not get much attention. Give them all a look.

Bear on a Bicycle reports some rather interesting news concerning the supposed 'scandal' involving Governor Palin's firing of a state trooper in Alaska. This is priceless!

Cap'n Bob and the Damsel blog on the NRA's new website dedicated to the truth about Barack Obama's anti-gun views. Folks, don't let this one get by you--Obama wants to ban handguns. Never has McCain come close to such extremist views, although he has enraged some of us at times concerning the 'assault weapons' thing.

Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit has the MUST-read of the day on Sarah Palin's interview by Charles Gibson on ABC. From what we can tell, Palin passed the test, but Gibson was ill-prepared.

Mark Steyn is back after a hiatus following his trial by the kangaroo court of the British Columbian 'human rights' Commission, during which he was charged with writing against Muslim extremists in Europe. As always, he has a good variety of reading to choose from.

Ohioans for Concealed Carry point to an article that shows how the courts are misusing the Heller decision.

Texas Fred comments on S.C. Democratic Party Chair Carol Fowler's statement that Palin's only qualification is that she hasn't had an abortion. As a South Carolinian, all I can say is that she and her husband, Donald Fowler, are an embarrassment to this state and to the nation (at one time Mr. Fowler was the national Democratic Party Chair).

ARRA News Service suggests that Congressmen and Senators who oppose offshore oil drilling--most of them Democrats--may have a hard time getting re-elected in November.

Bloviating Zeppelin says that the Left is certifiably insane. I agree. Just wait till you see what a Canadian 'doctor' said about Palin's decision to go ahead and have a Downs baby rather than abort it!

Captain of a Crew of One reports a news story out of Arizona on two 19 year olds who were 'caught' with some 'assault weapons.'

Joe Huffman posts essential reading on guns and politics, including comments on Sarah Palin, Bill Clinton, and Barack Gun-Ban-O-Bama.

ROFL!! xrlq comments on the latest tactic of Democrats, trying to claim that to refer to 'community organizers' is a racist comment since the term refers to a 'race.' LOL!! Holy Toledo, these people have lost their freakin' minds. And then there was the Tennessee Democrat who said that Jesus was a community organizer, just like Obama! Ohhhhh Lord, call the paramedics...I can't breath for the laughter.

David Codrea reports that the JBTs are up to no good again, and, of course, the AP and the MSM are right in their hip pockets.

JR provides an excellent rundown of the various bloggers' comments on 9/11.

*Reporting a stolen gun will land you in jail in New York!
*And David announces the winner of the Bob Barr poster contest.

Armed and Safe has the complete scoop on Chicago Mayor Daley's response to the Heller decision on gun bans.

JR at A Keyboard and a .45 blogs about his day at the North Texas Gun Show.

Roberta X gives us a report on the Indy Blog Meet yesterday.

Scott Rasmussen reports that his daily Presidential tracking poll shows no significant bump for Obama after the overseas trip. This is today's daily poll, posted 2 hours ago.

XRLQ has a link to one of the most hilarious things you will ever see this political season. 'Yes, Barry loves me, the O-bible tells me so.' ROFL! And no, the piece is not making fun of Jesus. It's making fun of the Obamessiah who seems to think he's Jesus, or least his supporters do.

Gateway Pundit reports that the terrorist front-group, CAIR, has held a fundraiser for the first Muslim elected to Congress, Keith Ellison, D-MN.

Gateway also reports the sad news that venerable conservative columnist and icon Bob Novak has been diagnosed with a brain tumor.

My Way News reports that a Judge has tossed a lawsuit filed by conservative radio talk show host Michael Savage against CAIR. Contrary to the article, however, CAIR is NOT a 'civil rights group.' Sheeesh.

Sebastian has good reading today on 'How Far is Too Far?'

ThreatsWatch has the details of the latest terrorist attack in Jerusalem, killing 3 and injuring over 40 Israelis.

Dr. John Lott reports that a battle is brewing between the NRA and San Francisco over a gun ban in public housing.

A Keyboard and a .45 says that a serial killer has been caught in the Midwest and that the story show how important it is to have a gun for self-defense.

Alphecca has the idiot of the day and further informs us that the NRA is starting an anti-Obama campaign. Good!

Born Again Redneck provides us with a snippet of the character of John McCain. When compared to most, McCain is in a league of his own when it comes to honor, character, and integrity.

Speaking of McCain's character, Cap'n Bob and the Damsel do a great job at putting on display the shame and disgrace of three other soldiers-turned-politicians--John Kerry, John Murtha, and WESLEY CLARK.

Dustin's Gun Blog shows us a MAJOR CNN blunder when reporting the number of gun deaths from suicide.

Gateway Pundit is reporting breaking news on 2 bomb threats today--one at the LAX airport by a man claiming to be a terrorist, and another at the World Bank.

http://johnrlott.blogspot.com/2008/04/new-op-ed-up-at-fox-news-ethanol.html

Michelle Malkin asks some piercing questions today that you have gotta see. Where did the DNC get footage from Iraq showing two of our soldiers being killed? Where do leftwing news sources get their footage of these things? People like Michael Moore, CNN, the DNC, and others always seem to get footage that nobody else could lay their hands on. Hmmmm. Malkin 'outs' them here:

Focusing on guns and politics, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:
