Predictably, the liberals make demands rather than seeking solutions

Texas Republicans offer prayers, Sheila Jackson Lee demands action after Lone Star shootings | Texas on the Potomac | a Chron.com blog.

Woody Allen’s ex is jaw jacking and I truly wish Pierce Morgan would follow through on his threat to deport himself. Seeking her usual 15 seconds in the spot light, Sheila Jackson Lee has staked her claim.

“Today is yet another sad day in our country because of a senseless shooting at the Lone Star College North Campus in Houston, Texas. I am deeply saddened to learn about those who have been wounded because of this incident. My thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends of the Lone Star College campus community and those who have been injured and anyone else personally impacted by this senseless act of violence. I am sure that everyone in the community of the Lone Star College campus will do whatever they can in the coming days to ease the pain, tensions and concerns of all affected.

“I have introduced common sense legislation that would focus on protecting our nation from gun violence and accidents. H.R. 65 will raise the handgun eligibility age from 18 to 21, and will prohibit persons under the age of 21 from possessing semiautomatic assault weapons or large capacity magazines. Moreover, H.R. 65 increases penalties on individuals who knowingly transfer a handgun, ammunition, semiautomatic assault weapon, or large capacity ammunition feeding device to a person under age 21. We must also work to ensure that Gun Free Zones are enforced.

“My prayers and condolences go first to the families of those wounded and I share the grief of everyone affected by this event. I applaud the swift work by the First Responders. Americans have a remarkable ability to support one another in times of crisis. This is one of those times.”

Does she not know the minimum age for purchasing a handgun is already 21?  And how exactly are you going to “enforce” a gun free zone without turning these places into the armed check points and establishing the police state you claim you don’t want? Having said all this, I find it interesting that she’s not calling for an outright ban in this statement.  Is this a ray of hope for us?!  I have to wonder if it isn’t a sign that she and other liberals recognize they don’t have votes for an outright ban on modern firearms and standard capacity magazines. Don’t relax just yet heroes…I’m just thinking out loud here.  The fact is, these people salivate at the news of each new incident as an opportunity to point a finger at us.  But, here’s a newsflash, yesterday, 100,000,000 gun owners used their guns responsibly and no one was shot or injured as a result.

Liberals claim to want freedom, so long as your beliefs are the same as theirs…

Glamour Magazine Editor Says Woman’s Desire for Self Defense “Strange” – Katie Pavlich.

I don’t read Glamour.  My wife doesn’t either, thankfully.  But, I imagine there are a lot of women who do and who also happen to be members of the Independent Women’s Forum.  Well, it seems Glamour magazine only want’s ladies to be concerned with abortion, pop-culture, and fashion.

What am I talking about?  Well it seems that the communications director for the Independent Women’s Forum sent Senior Fellow Anna Rittgets’ following statement to the editor of Glamour Magazine:

I am passionate about the 2nd Amendment, particularly because I’m a mother. I’m a thirty-something year old woman with a 3 year old and a nursing newborn. Without my concealed weapon, I wouldn’t be able to protect myself against an assailant that seeks to do me or my family harm.

Five bullets fired from a .38 revolver weren’t enough for a Georgia mother of two to stop one intruder last week in an unexpected home invasion–what if there had been more intruders?

It often takes several shots to stop one attacker. If the maximum magazine capacity is 10 (or if all semiautomatic handguns are banned, but 6 shot revolvers remain), and a woman in danger has to stop and reload her weapon while trying to protect her children (who are likely hysterical at this point), it gives the bad guy an opportunity to react–potentially fatally.

Laws limiting magazine capacity and availability of semiautomatic handguns will directly impact women, who use these weapons for self-defense inside and outside the home. Any executive action by President Obama to restrict guns will limit a women’s capability to fight back against attackers and protect herself and her family.

The bottom line is that guns are used for lawful self-defense every day. Sadly, they also used for illegal violence every day. But enacting laws that further restrict or ban law-abiding citizens’ access to firearms does nothing to address violent crime. It merely disarms the good guys.

To which, the editor, Lauren Lannotii responded, “Please unsubscribe me to your strange, sensationalizing polemics. Thank you.” It seems that Glamour magazine, which claims to want to “empower” women, would rather they simply sit back and try to enjoy whatever harm befalls them.

The James Yeager video the leftist media won’t show…

 

As we said before, posting/uploading stuff to the Internet, is like launching a bullet…Once it’s out there, you can’t take it back.  You have to deal with the consequences.  To his credit, Yeager owns up to his statements in this video but, more importantly, there’s solid advice on what we ALL need to be doing right now.  We should all be prepared for the worst and recognize that we may be living in interesting times very soon.  But at this moment; as we have long said, what is needed more than anything else is the is getting politically active with your elected officials.  Ring their phones off the hook, flood their mailboxes and email but, be respectful and speak/write as if you’ve actually got an education rather than screaming or typing in all caps a knuckle-dragging, trigger-jerking, mouth-breathing, mullet-head.

Kommiefornia is at it again…

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2012/05/gun-buyback-program-collects-600-weapons-in-first-hour.html

Yet another dog and pony show, I mean, gun buyback program to waste tax dollars in an already bankrupt state. LA’s mayor is celebrating the fact his administration spent at least $160,000 buying 1600, mostly junk, firearms from local residents. Let me assure you, there wasn’t a single gang-banger in the bunch!  As is always the case with these programs, all it serves to do is convince sheep that their elected shepherd is doing something to keep the wolves at bay. Meanwhile, us non-grasseaters are told we need to be more like the sheep and trust the shepherds who only care to fleece us or take us to slaughter for their own benefit.

One entertaining tidbit from this latest ripoff is that the LAPD is proudly displaying what looks like an AT4 launcher.  There has never been a time in modern history that you could walk to your local Walmart, Academy, or any other store to buy one of these items, let alone the cartridges it fires.  And the only common sources for such things on the street in this country are our own military allowing someone to walk off post with it or the BATFE giving away more than just guns to the Mexican cartels.  No amount of new gun control laws or crack downs are going to save the public from our own government mishandling stuff like this.

Classic example of why officers are sometimes on edge…

Here’s the truth, cops take a lot of flak for acting like everyone lies and everyone is trying to kill them.  I hate to tell you folks, it’s justified and here’s proof…
