    The “Reciprocal Conceal Carry” Act. S. 845

    It seems to me that your proposal would simply force them not to have any laws against concealed carry. I'd like to have Vermont/Alaska style carry nationwide. I think it is right. But the SCOTUS will approve current shall issue CCW laws as constitutional. I don't think this law will do...

    The “Reciprocal Conceal Carry” Act. S. 845

    Getting congress to force the states to allow unfettered concealed carry in the way you propose will not be done and can not be done. It is a political impossibility. Whether it is theoretically possible is of no use. To me, because of the practical impossibility of your suggestion, trying...

    Geez -- another possible excessive force incident in SoCal

    EVERYONE is INNOCENT until proven guilty. Those offering excuses for this despicable behavior ought to remember that. CR

    gun show loophole: why should we keep it?

    Like he said, its not a loophole. It's merely the same law as outside a gun show. It's a soundbite dreamt up by gun control groups to trick people. CR

    Brady Bunch Jerks sue Interior Dept over concealed guns in National Parks

    It does not. The report issued by the Interior Department in regards to this rule change noted just that when explaining why they did not do an environmental review, which is only required when something will actually affect the environment. So more Brady lies. CR

    CSI Miami BS

    Isn't Miami generally considered a warm clime? Methinks body armor would be pretty warm if a guy was wearing it in that sort of weather. Even their made up world has plot holes. CR

    Owner of broken rifle surrenders for 30-month sentence

    That's how, in general, democracies work. A bunch of people agreeing to pass certain laws. Every rule passed (by the gov't) is a law, no matter how much sense it makes. Personal opinion doesn't change that. Why waste time arguing that since you don't agree with those laws, they are...

    The woman who drowned in a car driven off a bridge by Ted Kennedy. If I recall, Kennedy himself was airlifted to a hospital recently; http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D90NJTNO0&show_article=1 I don't see the connection to the legal forum. CR

    What was best/luckiest shot you ever made?

    Saw a flock of starlings alight in the field behind my house. Wanting to do my part to end the threat of an invasive species, I took my .22 savage with scope and went out the back door. I took aim, from a little higher elevation, as the flock was on a hill sloping away. It was about 75...

    CATO's Robert Levy on DC v Heller, oral arguments heard 18 March

    It does nothing to help solve crime but allows for later government confiscation. And of course the government could make a registration program very burdensome. And I hadn't heard of this current registration system you speak of. Could you clarify? And you think the anti's won't try to...

    Gun Checks Stopped at Obama Rally in Dallas

    I don't see how this is a 'ploy' to win over gun owners. Do you think, if a Secret Service agent or police officer had spotted a person with a concealed gun, they would have done anything other than tackle that person immediately? I bet this decision had absolutely nothing to do with getting...

    Do you have to live in the USA to be an NRA member?

    I don't know exactly where this question belongs, and I couldn't find an answer while searching (apparently a lot of threads mention the NRA, who knew?). So I decided to ask the knowledgeable folks in General Gun Discussion; Can a person living in a foreign country become a member of the...

    Romney Drops Out

    What? He was the most fiscal conservative of McCain and Huckabee. He's the most small government of those three. Hmm, perhaps not: http://soundpolitics.com/archives/010089.html And why would Obama and Clinton split the Democrats? Neither is going to run a third party campaign. CR

    Mike Huckabee is the ONE

    Well, the DNC doesn't seem to think so: http://www.drudgereportarchives.com/data/2007/12/11/20071211_154236_flashhu.htm There are other choices for a person who is just as pro-gun but won't tear the party in half with economically liberal policies and softness on illegal immigration. The...

    WI: WGO at it again

    As I recall, the 'Executive Director' wants full Vermont-style carry, and nothing less. Which means he actively campaigns against any CCW permit system and goes for the all or nothing approach. Other bills he's been 'consistently opposed' to are ones that would give CCW to Wisconsin (finding a...

    Swiss banning most military ammo in private houses

    Mr. James, I would argue gun bans are not inevitable, and invite you to look at some figures from Gallup polls regarding feelings on gun control: http://www.pollingreport.com/guns.htm In short, in 1990 41 percent of people wanted to ban handguns. That figure is now 30 percent. Also in...

    Gun commercial during Super Bowl?

    IMHO, you wouldn't want to have an ad focusing solely on the self defense aspects, simply so as not to reinforce the guns=violence view in fence sitters, though it would be good to be part of a commercial. Along that vein, I really don't think you'd want an ad saying "Today's junior plinking...
