AR-15 NOT used in the Newtown, CT shooting

Here is one report (finally found some video of a report) that the shooter in Newtown, CT did not use the AR-15 in the shooting, but that has not stopped idiots like CNN's Piers Morgan from demonizing the black rifle.  I read reports like this some time ago.  Finally the mainstream media is covering it.  Obviously it is advantageous to gun haters to perpetuate a lie to further their evil agenda.

Gun control does not save lives

John Stossel gets it right.

An open invitation to my local school system and government

Sadly, this is how government looks at your rights

I see Wake County Sheriff Donnie Harrison on this video.  He acted more like Barney Fife, unfortunately.  I found it interesting that one Sheriff cited constitutional law and then turned around and cited Marbury vs. Madison, which was a usurpation of the US Constitution, but it did have an ill conceived precedent in the NC cast of Bayard vs. Singleton.  The people in that meeting attempt to bring to the forefront a valid point about unalienable rights.  As stated in the Declaration of Independence, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."  The very definition of unalienable is "Not to be separated, given away, or taken away".  To cite a usurpation as a precedent to exercise usurpation is hardly unalienable.

The truth about Piers Morgan's gun control and violence claims

Does this sound familiar?

With all the cries for gun control by the government and by ignorant citizens, it is excellent to look to the past to find that this is nothing new.  Take this quote from George Mason, for instance. 

"When the resolution of enslaving America was formed in Great Britain, the British Parliament was advised by an artful man [Sir William Keith], who was governor of Pennsylvania, to disarm the people; that it was the best and most effectual way to enslave them; but that they should not do it openly, but weaken them, and let them sink gradually, by totally disusing and neglecting the militia."

– George Mason, speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 14, 1788

Gun confiscation can and does happen in America. It happened to ME, too.

Thought police violate 2nd Amendment

According to World Net Daily

A new report to the Connecticut state legislature shows police have used the state's unique gun seizure law to confiscate more than 1,700 firearms from citizens based on suspicion that the gun owners might harm themselves or others.

The state's law permits police to seek a warrant for seizing a citizen's guns based on suspicion of the gun owner's intentions, before any act of violence or lawbreaking is actually committed.

This is just plain illegal. I do not care what the Connecticut law says. The United States Constitution says

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

This right was deemed a PERSONAL right in the Heller decision just recently.

Ever see the movie Minority Report? It is about a crime division that used the precognition abilities of three people to determine future crime and arrest people for crimes they will commit, not that they have committed. This is no different. It is just an example of thought police taking away someone's rights based upon speculation. And it is wrong. It is illegal. It needs to stop.

Gun grabber alert

I often run across articles and information from a few vigilant groups about gun control advocates in government trying to keep guns out of the hands of ordinary citizens. They mistakenly believe that the elimination of the guns and not the behavior will yield the results of lower gun violence. It is criminal behavior that is the problem, not the availability of guns. Cars and knives are readily available and are used in crimes, too. Yet we have no real laws to ban automobiles or Ginsu knives. It is all about control.

From GRNC.org. I recommend them to anyone looking for a local organization to join that will protect your gun rights.

SB 2081 - Roy Cooper Wants Your Guns

Attorney General ROY COOPER (919-716-6400, fax: 919-716-6750) continues his attempts to manipulate BATFE rules to deny more North Carolinians of their Constitutionally recognized right to keep and bear arms. With the recent Supreme Court ruling recognizing that your right to keep and bear arms is indeed an INDIVIDUAL right like all others in the Bill of Rights, expect to see anti-gun politicians like Cooper try this kind of procedural end run around the laws.

There is good news, though. There is a sense that your feedback is having an effect. While there seems to be some developing hesitancy amongst those pushing SB 2081, they have not given up by any means. Now is not the time to let up on them. As an ambitious politician, Cooper knows he must carefully manage this maneuver. It is in his best interest for you to not be paying attention to this affront to your freedom. Now is the time to apply the pressure and let him know that this will impact his future political career. A Cooper assistant, Greg McLeod seems to have been tasked with being the point of contact on this matter. Please tell him to pass along your sentiments to the Attorney General: info@roycooper.com.

A brief recap of SB 2081 follows:

Attorney General Touts 80,000 Barred From Buying Guns

Despite assertions from GRNC and others that serious flaws reside in the bill, SB 2081 passed through the Senate Judiciary Committee in a 5-4 vote. The bill now resides in the Senate Committee on Appropriations/Base Budget.

Standing before the committee to defend his bill was none other than NC Attorney General ROY COOPER (D, GRNC 0-star). If you wonder what he is after, consider his statement that in 2006, Virginia began reporting not only people committed to mental health facilities, but also those remanded by courts to OUTPATIENT care. Said Cooper, in 2006 North Carolina reported (and therefore barred from owning guns) "only" 440 names to the National Instant Check System. Meanwhile, by adding outpatients, Virginia reported...**80,000.**

80,000 BARRED FROM BUYING GUNS

That's right: 80,000 PEOPLE BARRED FROM BUYING GUNS, and that is FROM JUST ONE STATE. And given that Virginia's population is smaller than North Carolina's, under Cooper's scheme an even greater number could find themselves saddled with a "firearms disability" under federal law.

IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED

* CONTACT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AT 919-716-6725 info@roycooper.com and tell Attorney General Roy Cooper to stop attacking the rights of people who neither have a federal firearms disability, nor are a threat to anyone. Let him know that you will remember this should he pursue future political office.
