      1. Lol… Exactly and a whole lot of other things people are scared to follow down the rabbit hole… People don’t want truth and Liberty they want comfort and entertainment…

  4. Regarding gun confiscation, the last thing I want is a crazy person with a gun. But the scary part is who determines whom is crazy? Can my neighbor call the police and say I act weird and have lots of guns? The last thing I want is for some crazy progressive deciding who is too crazy to have a gun.

  5. “Gun Confiscation Center in Seattle”
    So if I report the government of the state of Washington as a risk to my safety a judge will order all it’s guns confiscated? This is great news but I’m thinking I’ll get the jerk across the street to call it in…you know…just in case it doesn’t work out the way I’m thinking it might.

    “California Bill Protecting School Shooters”
    Yep, I remember this one. Several, mostly rural, school districts started allowing armed staff but in a nation that kills 3 million babies a year through infanticide what’s a few more dead children? I guess that’s the logic behind this new law but I’m not entirely certain.

  6. that photo of the man sitting on the confiscated guns pic is of course the Australian picture of ” flak Jacket ” johnnies gun buy back in 1996, why is he named flak jacket johnnie you ask ?, he wore a flak jacket to a pro gun rally of tens of thousands of angry gun owners protesting the gun buy back. Idiot politicians……

  7. Trump is proposing beefing up the background checks including for mental health issues. This may be fine under Trump, but the next leftist that gets in office will change the rules, by executive order of course. Then you will have to have a mental health exam to get a firearm. Under our current rules, can’t you be denied based upon having a record of having seen a shrink? Catch 22.

    After all to want to own a firearm there must be something seriously, mentally wrong with you! (sarcasm alert)

  8. Note [ regarding the recent Florida shooting]

    “Without question school resource officer (SRO) Scot Peterson had ample enough time to make it to the 3rd floor and prevent 6 deaths including the death of my daughter Meadow,” he wrote on his Facebook page. “Then lied to investigators.” – Andrew Pollack, father of victim Meadow Pollack.

    The school security refused to engage the active school shooter by hiding, lives WOULD have been saved early on ! these cretins need jail time as well as being sued for all they have. I would be satisfied with all three being beaten black and blue by the victims father in public….then given jail time.

    Grieving dad of Florida school shooting victim slams school security officer.

    1. Unfortunately, if a lawsuit is successful it will be the local taxpayers who will be stuck with the bill, and not the chicken$h!ts that refuse to face the shooter.

  9. I propose an Armed Parent Society (APS) to help guard schools. A number of parents could create a group who are armed and who could take turns standing guard during school hours. The parents could take some hand gun training to help them be accurate and to take safe shots as possible. There would be no expense to the school district. While there could be a few problems with this idea at least they would be more effective at protecting the children than coward cops such as was the case in Florida and also in Columbine Co.

  12. re: Cramping & Hypoxia – We bird hunt alot, walking thru the North Maine Woods and we have always relied on plain Alka-Setzer to prevent and stop leg cramps. Two tablets mixed with a half bottle of Gator-Aid, any flavor – can’t be beat! (You must have a half bottle of liquid because adding the tablets will make foam over the top!) Really works! Try it – you’ll like it!!!!

  14. Why,when a school shooting happens,does the schools security protocalls always fail? Where are the security people who should be screening the students as they enter the building. They should be checking back packs and occasionally doing pat downs. How are these shooters gaining access to the interior of the school building?

  15. Before they take your guns, get political and fight for your RIGHT to bear arms, before that right is turned into a limited privilege. I have written before about what we face in Australia – as guns aren’t a right here under any law/constitution – therefore it defaults to a privilege. And privileges can be infringed upon or taken away with the stroke of a pen.

    My background is former Infantry Soldier Australian Army (6 years), Private Security (10 years) and Enforcement Officer for Fisheries and Wildlife (both State and Commonwealth departments). Nothing in my background is “recognised” towards firearms training, therefore I have to attend a 2 day Safety Course (which is firearms for dummies – extremely basic), expensive and a limited amount of trainers and courses run per year.

    After completing the course I am now deemed to be a competent, law abiding, lawful firearms licence holder Categories A, B & H.
    Cat A – air rifles, rimfire rifles (other than self loader/semi autos), shotgun (other than pump or semi auto) and combination rimfire rifle/shotgun.
    Cat B – Muzzleloading firearms, centrefire rifles (other than semi auto), combination centrefire rifle/shotgun.
    Cat H – Any Pistol (including Revolvers) and any air pistol and is only for sport/target shooting – members of pistol clubs.

    The other 2 categories –
    Cat C – •self-loading rim-fire rifle with a magazine capacity of no more than 10 rounds of ammunition, •self-loading shotgun with a magazine capacity of no more than 5 rounds of ammunition, •pump action shotgun with a magazine capacity of no more than 5 rounds of ammunition. Further Cat C (primary producer licence) may only have 2 Cat C firearms – a rimfire semi auto and either a semi auto or pump action shotgun.
    Cat D – •self-loading centre-fire rifle, •self-loading shotgun with a capacity of more than 5 rounds of ammunition; •pump action shotgun with a capacity of more than 5 rounds of ammunition; •self-loading rim-fire rifle with a magazine capacity of more than 10 rounds of ammunition. Cat D only issued to professional meat culling shooter and it must be their principal occupation.
    There are limited collectors licences as well – but you can already see that there are massive restrictions on who can have what.

    There are 10 round maximum handgun magazines only for target /competition shooting. You cannot import full capacity original or aftermarket handgun magazines. The rimfire and centrefire rifles and shotguns all have magazine capacity restrictions, and politicians are continuing to try to restrict lever action shotguns to Cat C firearms and have banned the import of 8 shot lever action shotguns.

    The waiting period for permission to purchase a firearm is typically around 6 weeks to have your application processed (the Firearms branches are left understaffed and underfunded), then you get a permission letter from Firearms branch to go and get your firearm from the dealer – then registration of the firearm on top of costs. If I want a second handgun of the same calibre – I have to write a half page essay on why my current handgun in that calibre doesn’t meet the needs I am requesting the second handgun for).

    There are no “private sales” as you know them in the US. All firearms must be transferred through gun dealers (my Grandfather or Father could not give me a firearm, it would have to be transferred through a dealer and registered to me – all at a cost). All ammunition purchases have licence details and amount and calibre of ammunition purchased recorded – again no private sales of ammunition – and any friend I take shooting who isn’t licenced cannot buy ammunition – I have to be present for my licence details. Various States have vague terms on the amount of ammunition someone may have at any time.

    The media here in Oz is using the Florida shooting to pressure our politicians and our organisations to tell you Yanks just how to manage Gun Control – due to the success here in Oz. Absolute crap – we don’t have a Second Amendment and the Gun Control here is a disaster for law abiding licence holders. Crims are routinely given bail or charges are downgraded when illegal firearms are involved – yet lawful firearms holders face confiscation and disqualified from being a licence holder over minor things such as having a loose .22 round in your house or car. Storage requirements now include safes of certain thicknesses (of course the more expensive ones), video surveillance and or alarm systems and separate locked storage for ammunition.

    So FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT for your RIGHT – join the NRA, sign petitions to your politicians and support those who support you. Don’t think they aren’t coming for your guns.

    Good Luck.
