And to close this post, 2 things the 60s had that you cannot find now.

You all remember Ben Richards and his somewhat strange profile photo in Facebook. He is a regular at CSGV and sometimes he manages to insert a foot all the way to the ankle his mouth.

Not only Ben is wishing that there is a confrontation between police and law abiding citizens but he actually wants the police to be on the losing side! Only a moron would want that a cop armed just with a shield, a baton and pepper spray should face a crowd armed with rifles and shotguns.

And these are the people that say what is best for us when it comes to self-defense.

My job today will be contacting all the Florida Mayors that appeared in MAIG’s USA Today ad and ask them this:

Dear Mayor:

I saw your name on an ad in USA Today ran by Mayors Against Illegal Guns. The ad expressed opposition agianst H.R. 822 The National Reciprocity Act which would allow Law Abiding Citizens with Concealed Weapons Permits to carry legally in any state that issues its own Concealed Weapons Permits to its citizens.

The ad states without equivocation that this law if approved “would put our police officers
at risk by making it far more difficult to distinguish law-abiding gun owners from dangerous criminals.” My question to you is: Why would you support the inferred statement that a law abiding Floridian with a concealed weapons permit will become a potential cop killer once he/she leaves the state?

And one more question if you please. Do you think that a Floridian’s right to defend him or herself against deadly force stops at the border with Georgia or Alabama? Do we become second class citizens after crossing an imaginary line?

Thank you in advance for your response.

Miguel Gonzalez

Evil Gun Owner threatens to shoot peaceful law-abiding Occupy Portland protestors. Not quite.

Now, if you are going to “exaggerate” make sure the link you use does not provide information that goes against what you said plus adds some details that makes you look stupid and racist. From OregonLive.com

There, officers found Jason Charles Parker, 32, with a gun and arrested him for disorderly conduct.

Parker was taking video at the camp when several demonstrators “verbally challenged” him, police said. During the argument, one of the demonstrators used a racial slur at Parker, who then showed a gun he had tucked in his waistband.

Parker is a concealed handgun license owner, police said.

So, he was not arrested for brandishing but for disorderly conduct. I checked the Oregon Law and I could not find the term “brandishing” anywhere, first CSGV fail. As you can imagine, Mr. Parker is a person of color other than White who might have felt threatened by the enlightened ones at Occupy Portland picnic verbally attacking & using racial slurs.

Mr. Parker was indeed arrested for disorderly conduct ‘B’ (misdemeanor) and released on his own recognizance, case disposed. That leads me to believe he was not considered a threat to society or crazed gunman ready to kill anybody in sight, second CSGV Fail. And what adds spice to this whole issue is the official release of Portland Police informing on the incident and requesting if anybody had video of it. You see, in Oregon the use use verbal slurs is considered harassment which depending on the conditions, can go from the regular misdemeanor flavor to felony if “A reasonable person would believe that the threat was likely to be followed by action.” (Oregon 166.065 D-iii)

But like any good infomercial, that is not all! In the same OregonLive.com article we find out that at the same location:

Police also arrested a man at the camp Tuesday afternoon on suspicion of dealing drugs. Timothy Soldani, 36, of Tillamook, was taken into custody after officers said they found him carrying a mason jar filled with several bags of marijuana. He was booked in the Multnomah County Jail.

Damn, with the quality of people at the Occupy Portland shindig. I am leaning on siding with Mr. Parker’s side of the story  Somehow lazy lefty racists and dope dealers do not make for trustworthy people. But that is just me.

UPDATE: I wanted to keep this post classy, but I am not a classy guy so here it goes.

Dear Ladd: Your stupid Facebook post is the 21st Century equivalent of Bull Connor shouting: ZOMG! That Negro has a gun!
I hope you are happy, you are now officially in the same side of the Klan.

UPDATE 2: and the reason Mr. Parker feel threatened was not only a bunch on idiots screaming “Nigger!” but the display of knives against him. No wonder Portland Police wants video and it is gonna be doubtful it will ever appear.

MAIG published an ad in USA Today in opposition of H.R. 822, the National Reciprocity Law; nothing new there. Were used at MAIG spewing bullcrap but it is stuff like this that sends this ad into the Outright Lies field, bear with me:

This forced concealed carry reciprocity legislation would require states to recognize permits  issued in other states, even if those other states
have far weaker standards…..

and

Doing so would threaten the safety of our citizens by putting loaded guns in the hands of people who are too dangerous to qualify for a local permit.

Again, nothing that we have not seen before. But the plot thickens when we reach the people signing this add. Why is that? Because plenty of those mayors demanding that their state’s “right” to determine who can carry from outside their jurisdiction already do so.

Florida’s Concealed Weapons License is the most mentioned as being weak in requirements and easy to obtain and the target for every anti-carry newspaper editorial out there, yet, it is accepted by 36 states but they fail to tell you that!  I understand that the Honorable Dawn Zimmer from Hoboken, New Jersey would feel “intruded” by a visiting Floridian carrying in her city since the state is notoriously nasty about issuing gun permits to its own citizens but that the Honorable Kasim Reed, mayor of Atlanta, Georgia raises concerns when Florida and Georgia have had reciprocity already for many years and without any problems is absurd.There is also the question about how many of those majors whose “signature” appear in the add are OK with it. It is not the first time that MAIG has published a letter “signed” by everybody and then the “signees” find out about it and were not in agreement.

Let’s admit it. This is just political grandstanding by an organization that has been a constant failure promoting their agenda notwithstanding the millions poured into it by His Highness Mayor Bloomberg. The First Pope of NYC. Federal Reciprocity is simply the logical next step on the 25 years of the official Concealed Carry movement in this country.

MAIG, get over it.
