I was just going to post that article, but you beat me to it. It is a great one.

Have a feeling this either won't come to fruition or the numbers will be small.
The government response will be watched carefully.

Two New Reports: Gun Homicides Down Since 1990s
 

Gun Homicides Down

Interesting points from the article:

But the MSM's continuous glorification and politicization of each gun-related incident, coupled with their demonization and villification of law-abiding gun owners leaves us with this sobering statistic from the Pew Poll:


The only way that a majority of the population can arrive at the opinion that gun crimes have risen in the last two decades is through the duplicity of the MSM, who have abdicated all vestiges of their journalistic responsibilities as members of the "4th Estate" at the altar of partisan politics...

Pretty fair indictment, which is what it is.

So, Dr. John Lott would appear to be correct.

Does it go "boom" and you made it?
 

In the future, the Lautenberg "permit to reload" bill here.

Read carefully, and note again the way the AG inserts itself into the permission process, and the criteria.

"The Attorney General shall issue guidelines describing the circumstances under which the Attorney General will exercise the authority and make determinations..."

Chuckie Schumer is now a co-sponsor.

I feel safer already.

I worry that my son might not understand what I've tried to be. And if I were to be killed, Willard, I would want someone to go to my home and tell my son everything – everything I did, everything you saw – because there's nothing that I detest more than the stench of lies. And if you understand me, Willard, you will do this for me.:lifter and they thought Kurtz was nuts, Ha.

Wrong thread? :D

A powerful message for more than 10 rounds
 

A friend forwarded this YouTube PSA to me this morning.

I think that the producer meant to say standard capacity magazines rather than high capacity magazines - at least he did not call them "clips" - if the libs own the lanaguage they often own the argument.

You say own the language and yet you pigeon-hole your magazine argument. Standard capacity implies a standard amount [if the libs get their way the "standard" will be low, say 7 0r 10 rounds]. who sets the "standard"?

I want HIGH capacity magazines! The higher the better! No one in combat ever says they carried too much ammo! Not only do I want high capacity magazines, I want a lot of them!

Own the language of Hi-Cap mags! Libs can try to label them "assault mags" or "death clips" for all I care but we should take back the language!


High Capacity Magazines Save Lives!!!!


Now back to your regularly scheduled argument!

High capacity, standard capacity...as long as the magazines hold more than 10 rounds and free, law abiding citizens can own, use and transfer them - I'm in.

ETA: IMO, standard capacity for a Glock 19 magazine is commonly 15 rounds - high capacity is 33 rounds and restricted magazine capacity is 10 rounds.

I think you're onto something! The current administration is trying to make us use a RESTRICTED MAGAZINE! Make them look like the Nazis they are by restricting our rights!

Don't EVEN be thinkin' about reachin' for my standard-size G18 Pez dispensers. :D
