...in Indianapolis - “What's upsetting to me is, if you look at the month of January, I think we had 18 homicides during that month,” said Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears. “Fourteen of those were being investigated for self-defense, meaning that someone lost their life, and that case might...
Let's coddle the violent criminals, but make really tough laws against scary-looking guns and make those with concealed carry permits (who tend to be among the MOST law-abiding and non-violent citizens) unable to use their permits when they cross an arbitrary county line boundary.
WHY did...
My son has had no training other than me, who has had no 'formal' training, and at age 13 he could hit an 8" gong five of eight shots using a 1911 in 45 ACP, standing at 100 yards. On a good day, I might be able to do that from a rest with a Contender pistol in 22 Hornet...
If the owners of the mall had THEIR way, the killer would have not been interfered with, because the owners of the mall have a "no weapons" policy, which insists that law-abiding types be unarmed, thus leaving ONLY the criminals who don't obey mall-rules (or, laws against murder) armed...
I think the original post was making the point that we ALREADY keep 'compromising', with the 1934 act, the 1968 act, the 1986 act, and so on forever.....the PROBLEM is that these haven't really been 'compromises' - the other side takes but never 'gives'.
There are two ways to put an end to...
I could not get my previous post to edit so I quoted it so I could add the phrase "per day" to the genocide data.
Gunowners.org has a find-your-legislator tool that makes it easy to email them and I would suggest quoting or paraphrasing some of the above to let them know that compromise is not...

This is disturbing.
Hopefully Ruger won't cave to their wishes...
The REAL excuse there is that it ALSO forces a 'gun registry' to start, because you can only insure what you tell them you have. The Dems are desparate to get a gun registry before they steal the next election.
We need to remind the politicians of a couple things:
1. if a patient has an illness that a given drug doesn't work for, because it is ineffective and has too many risky side effects, no matter how many more patients come down with the same illness, the wrong treatment is STILL the wrong...
All it takes is ONE person who is a disgruntled former co-worker, or neighbor who doesn't like the color you painted your mailbox, or politician who doesn't like the fact that you had a yard-sign for their opponent, to 'turn you in' and then when you are found with a "federal firearms felony...
I like it.
I tend to write 'wordy' letters though.
However, ALL letters count, and from personal contact with many legislators over the years, the biggest effect is the sheer VOLUME of responses. In other words, anything 'tallied' as 'opposed' to a bill has an effect, whether long or short...
Yep. Fewer than one per cent of gun owners even bother to participate politically; even some who insist that they do start faltering and stammering if you press them on who their legislator is.
I've tried for 40 years to motivate 'gun owners' and most of them just buy a bunch of stuff, think...
