Double Barrel Shotgun vs AR-15 for Home Defense

You have heard from the likes of Crazy Joe Biden and Slick Willy Clinton on the virtues of a Double Barrel Shotgun for home protection.  Of course their Secret Service details have not given up either their semi-auto Sig Sauer pistols loaded with 15+1 .357sig hollow point bullets or their 5.26 caliber modern sporting carbines with standard 30 round magazine capacity.  How do you protect your family from the growing home invasion threat in the United States?

In over 40 states you can decide the best way to protect your family in your home.  If you live in New York or New Jersey where home invasions are an epidemic, you need to move or hire retired law enforcement officers to protect your family.  Retired law enforcement officers are exempt from the AR-15 ban and 7 round magazine capacity limit imposed on the rest of you law abiding citizens.

The Secret Service has decided the best way to protect both Crazy Joe and Slick Willie.  I’m comfortable following their lead to protect my family in our home.

I’m on the way to the 2013 NRA Annual Meeting.  Hope to see many of you in Houston.

Politico is Progressive Propaganda

The liberal media will do anything to pressure lawmakers to support the Progressive subversives gun-control agenda.

Far left wing, Obama puppet Politico published a story Wednesday with this headline: “Hunting Group Wants Background Checks.” The story gave the false impression that the millions of hunters in the U.S. support Obama’s push for “universal background checks.”

In fact, 31 well-known hunting and conservation groups sent a letter to Capitol Hill Thursday expressing opposition to intrusion by the federal government into private firearm transfers.

As reported by Emily Miller at the Washington Times , Politico only cites one small group in its story, Bull Moose Sportsmen, which claims 5,000 members. The story gives no context for the size of this group in relation to other hunting advocacy groups, nor its prominence in the community. The single poll cited in the Politico story is one commissioned by the group itself and claims 72 percent of hunters support “criminal background checks with some exceptions.”

None of the major hunting groups which represent the millions of law-abiding sportsmen was mentioned, nor the polling of those members.

In fact, Bull Moose Sportsmen is a fringe organization run by Democratic activists that has been rejected from membership into the major gun and hunting groups’ umbrella organization because it refuses to reveal its funding sources.

The American Wildlife Conservation Partners (AWCP) is a consortium of 42 organizations, including major groups such as Safari Club International, Ducks Unlimited, National Wildlife Turkey Federation, National Rifle Association and the National Shooting Sports Foundation. The groups together represent 6 million individual members.

Members of AWCP told Miller that Bull Moose has been denied entry into their organization because it refused to reveal its mysterious funding sources.

According to some public filings, the “non-partisan nonprofit organization” gave $17,000 in the 2012 federal election, and all of it went to Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado. It spent $117,540 in support of Mr. Bennet in the 2010 cycle. The group raised $354,228 in 2011 and spent $295,863.

While calling itself “nonpartisan,” Bull Moose Sportsmen is run by Democrats. Co-Founder Gaspar Perricone, who told Politico that, “Background checks fall within the ethics of responsible gun ownership,” is a former staffer for Sen. Mark Udall, Colorado Democrat. Politico also ran an op-ed by Mr. Perricone on Thursday entitled, “Hunters Chart Middle Ground on Guns.” The other co-founder of Bull Moose, Tim Mauck, was Mr. Udall’s finance director and was paid $4,743 by the senator’s campaign in 2012.

The real hunting groups do not want private transfers of firearms to be subject to government checks. On Thursday, most of the groups in the AWCP coalition signed a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to offer a five-point plan that would address the problem of gun violence.

Among the suggestions is to improve the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System so that it can effectively prevent access to firearms by those not legally qualified to possess them without criminalizing private transfers.

And that the said Constitution be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the Press, or the rights of Conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms; …”  Samuel Adams quoted in the Philadelphia Independent Gazetteer, August 20, 1789, Propositions submitted to the Convention of this State

The TRUTH About Guns In America

The College Politico recently posted Gun Facts You Need to Know “From the RIGHT Side of Campus”. If you click on the site , you can read the source of all these FACTS about Guns in the United States:

270 Million civilian owned guns – this comes directly from the most recent Small Arms Survey which is conducted by the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies and studies civilian ownership of guns throughout the world.

89 civilian owned guns per 100 residents – this also comes directly from the most recent Small Arms Survey.

I should note that, given the tens of millions of gun purchases since Obama was elected in 2008, these numbers need to be updated.

The US is #1 in the world when it comes to gun ownership – this too comes directly from the most recent Small Arms Survey.

The US doesn’t even crack the top 25 in gun murder rate – this comes from information provided by the UN’s Office on Drugs and Crime and compiled by the Guardian.

77.3% of justifiable homicides committed by civilians involved a gun – this statistic comes from the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that 201 of the 260 total justified homicides in 2011 involved a firearm.

99.2% of justifiable homicides committed by police involved a gun – this statistic also comes from the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that 390 of the 393 total justified homicides in 2011 involved a firearm.

2.5 Million incidents of defensive gun use per year in the US – This stat comes from the National Self-Defense Survey which was conducted by Gary Kleck and Marc Gertz in 1995.

Rifles were involved in fewer homicides in 2011 than blunt objects, fists, and knives – This stat is taken from the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that there were 323 homicides involving rifles in 2011 while there were 496 involving blunt objects, 728 involving fists, and 1694 involving knives.

1.5x more homicides were committed with blunt objects than rifles - This stat is also taken from the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that there were 323 homicides involving rifles in 2011 while there were 496 involving blunt objects.

2.2x more homicides were committed with fists than rifles - This stat is also taken from the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that there were 323 homicides involving rifles in 2011 while there were 728 involving fists.

5.2x more homicides were committed with knives than rifles - This stat is also taken from the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that there were 323 homicides involving rifles in 2011 while there were 1694 involving knives.

2.6% of murders in 2011 involved rifles (including AR-15s) - This stat was also compiled using the FBI’s most recent uniform crime report which states that there were 323 homicides involving rifles in 2011 while there were 12,664 total homicides that year.

Progressives are not the loyal opposition, which existed in our two party system for so long. They are subversives who are out to fundamentally change America, Obama’s words not mine. Their primary tactic is distributing Progressive Propaganda via intentionally false and distorted talking points.

The White House supplies the daily talking points and the majority of both the broadcast, print and entertainment media run with it. MSNBC is the primary broadcast outlet of the Obamanation. The liberal fascists among us, pick it up and distribute the collective group think via social media, the education systems in every state and word of mouth.

Don’t ever underestimate the power of propaganda. Never forget that Hitler was overwhelmingly elected and supported by the voters because of the successful propaganda machine in Nazi Germany.

“I ask, Sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people. To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them.” -George Mason Co-author of the Second Amendment during Virginia’s Convention to Ratify the Constitution, 1788

We Must Resist the Tyranny of Progressive Subversives

The United States added 10 amendments — a Bill of Rights — to the Constitution in 1791. The second is just 27 words long, and quite easily understood:

Amendment II

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

The presenter in this video is Bill Whittle.   We must spend our time and treasure to elect a U.S. President who would give this speech. Live Free or Die.

For I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man. - Thomas Jefferson

National Gun Registration Bill Proposed by Senate Democrats

Senate Bill 649 is more than a Universal Background Check law. It’s a national firearms registration mandate.  The left despises the Second Amendment but they don’t have the guts to tell the truth.  Progressives are immoral liars who have controlled education and media for decades. 

Progressives not guns, not the NRA, not law abiding citizens are responsible for mass murders that occur in GUN FREE ZONES. 

Progressives have controlled education and media for fifty years.  Progressives sowed the seeds of violence, self entitlement and irresponsibility not the NRA or responsible gun owners. 

The NRA and law abiding concealed handgun carriers are responsible for an overall reduction in violent crime.  Wake up and push back against the liberal fascists who seek to fundamentally and illegally change America.

The gun banners are not just hoplophobes and zealots.  They are anti-American subversives who seek to fundamentally change America and destroy our Constitutional Republic.  Statism through tyranny is their end game.  Disarming law abiding citizens is crucial to their success.

Bill Synopsis

Here is the bill synopsis, emphasis added:

To ensure that all individuals who should be prohibited from buying a firearm are listed in the national instant criminal background check system and require a background check for every firearm sale, and for other purposes.

And what, pray tell, are those “other purposes”?

Background Checks and Registration

In typical fashion, there’s quite a bit in this bill and it’s not exactly straightforward, but what most concerns me are the sections pertaining to background checks and registration.

Background checks will be required for nearly every firearm transfer with a few exclusions. This part is fairly straightforward, on the surface doesn’t seem too bad. However, once you dig a little deeper, you find the real problem, and that’s registration.

Section 122 Firearms Transfers, which details how transfers would be regulated, has this little gem, emphasis added:

(B) Regulations promulgated under this paragraph…(ii) shall include a provision requiring a record of transaction of any transfer that occurred between an unlicensed transferor and unlicensed transferee accordance with paragraph (1).

If you think that this bill isn’t registration, you’re not paying attention or you’re a subversive. Even though Senators Paul and Cruz have promised to filibuster this bill, we can’t rely on that alone. Contact your Senators today and tell them to oppose S. 649.

We established however some, although not all its [self-government] important principles . The constitutions of most of our States assert, that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves, in all cases to which they think themselves competent, (as in electing their functionaries executive and legislative, and deciding by a jury of themselves, in all judiciary cases in which any fact is involved,) or they may act by representatives, freely and equally chosen; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed;
