SWAT Standards For Law Enforcement Agencies. The first line of attack.
Explaining dumb “assault weapon” myths so easy even a Gun Control Activist can understand them. And his thoughts on “arming schools.”
“I think the nation is very divided on gun control,” Taylor told TheDC, “but I think the majority of us feel strongly — even the majority of gun owners feel strongly — that we need to make some sacrifice[s] to our freedoms, if that’s the way to put it.
via James Taylor on gun control: ‘We need to make some sacrifice[s] to our freedoms’ | The Daily Caller.
Actually what he meant was:
we need to make some sacrifice[s] to your freedoms, if that’s the way to put it.
Fixed That For You Mr. Taylor.
President Obama could not get his way via Executive “recommendations” but he did use the bully pulpit to pressure Congress into bring back Gun Control Laws and the renewal of the utter failure of the Assault Weapons Ban. He knows that the only way to make Congress cave is via Media Assault, shaming congresscritters into voting for new legislation.
Expect a renewed and more focused attack from the Moribund Stream Media. My local rag, The Miami Herald came out swinging today with 2 editorials: one against Stand Your Ground rehashing the Trayvon Martin case and the other basically calling anybody supporting the Second Amendment insane.
For years, opponents have managed to block effective gun control legislation by wrapping themselves up in the Constitution and decrying any restrictive effort as an attack on the Second Amendment. That’s a smokescreen. Courts have made clear that the Second Amendment is not a bar to sensible regulation.
Justice Antonin Scalia’s majority ruling in the famous Heller decision in 2008 held that gun rights are “not unlimited.” Further, the court has said lawmakers can ban felons and the mentally ill from owning guns. Lower courts have also upheld other restrictions, such as bans on machine guns and sawed-off shotguns.
We are akin to Felons and the Mentally Ill according to the editors in the Herald. Even when they quote Scalia saying that gun rights are not limited, they do fail to mention that the same Scalia said the same People should enjoy the protections of the Second Amendment just like the protections accorded under the First and the Fourth.
In some instances, Mr. Obama’s initiative would only close loopholes in existing law, such as imposing a universal background check on gun sales.
Some 40 percent of those sales are conducted at gun shows, over the Internet, and by private sellers, with no criminal background checks taking place at all.
PS: I always forget to mention that the newsroom scenes of the movie were filmed in the soon to be defunct Miami Herald Building. I am guessing the lessons of the movie were never considered by the Miami Herald editorial gang and staff.
67% of firearm murders took place in the country’s 50 largest metro areas. The 62 cities in those metro areas have a firearm murder rate of 9.7, more than twice the national average. Among teenagers the firearm murder rate is 14.6 or almost three times the national average. Those numbers are from six years ago. They have grown worse since.
Those are the crowded cities of Obamerica.
What you will never hear in your MSM broadcast.
West Virginia Citizens Defense League President, Keith Morgan basically shreds Talking Head Keith Morgan on Gun Control.
Take pointers from this interview.
You can be destructively polite. Clue: Whenever they say “I want to get back to..” means they know they got hammered bad in the point they were just making and they are in full retreat… keep pushing. Don’t let a lie go unchallenged.
General John Sedgwick was the highest ranking Union casualty in the Civil War. He was killed by a sniper at the Battle of Spotsylvania Court House in 1864. His troops were flinching and hiding at the noise of incoming fire so he is quoted to say “I’m ashamed of you, dodging that way. They couldn’t hit an elephant at this distance.” Just seconds later he was proven wrong with a bullet hole below his left eye.
