Gun control – Page 11 – an Uncensored Mind

“Make my day”

From CNN:

“Make my day. Make my day.” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi replied, daring Republicans to call more attention to the protest, with a comment reminiscent of Clint Eastwood’s famous “Dirty Harry” character.

Do you think “Dirty Pelosi” realizes that she’s using what arguably could be considered a pro-gun call to arms (pun intended) in her quest to eliminate guns? And doesn’t “Dirty Pelosi” sounds like a cheap drink you find at a beach-side party bar? Two parts rum, one part grain alcohol, and 3 parts Rohypnol. Oh, well; I expect that accounts for the dysfunction we find permeating Congress – I’ll bet this is a popular drink with the D.C. crowd.

How to discourage concealed carry

I’ll follow up on this story, but the initial report is that the driver told the police officer that he was carrying a pistol and had a permit, and the driver was then shot. Well, that’s one way to discourage legal concealed carry by law-abiding citizens.

Is Hillary ignorant, or just pandering?

Your guess is as good as mine. I’ve just come from Hillary’s gun-control web page, however, and I’m concerned. Either she does not understand existing gun laws or gun crime statistics, or she is hoping you don’t. Either way is very, very bad. Let’s take a look at her gun control position…

Realize, too, that while mass shootings involving so-called “assault weapons” are highly-publicized, they account for a relatively few deaths – fewer than you might think. Some statistic for your review: Continue reading “Gov. Brown signs new restrictions on firearms”

Sometimes, guns save lives…

What would you tell the family of this 7-11 clerk, attacked my an axe-wielding man, if a law-abiding citizen/customer had not been armed and able to intervene? Or this mother of two, had she not been armed and able to protect herself and her children from a larger, stronger attacker in her own home?

What do you think would happen to crime levels if criminals no longer had to worry about their law-abiding victims being armed? Just a thought…

Due process

This editorial writer would like to ban those on a no-fly list from buying guns. Nice idea, if we assume that it only affects terrorists. But it won’t. Continue reading “Due process”

Terrorism is about freedom

Terrorists are not attacking us; they are attacking our freedom. The freedom to think and express our thoughts; the freedom to select our own religion, or none at all; the freedom to govern our lives without interference from church, state, or others; the freedom to defend ourselves and these principles when necessary – these are what our attackers seek to abolish. Do not allow them to succeed in using our own freedoms to strike blows against us. Continue reading “Terrorism is about freedom”
