Pass The Ammo

Tuesday, December 29, 2009

Last week, the FBI issued its preliminary 2009 crime report, showing that the number of murders in the first half of 2009 decreased 10 percent compared to the first half of 2008. If the trend holds for the remainder of 2009, it will be the single greatest one-year decrease in the number of murders since at least 1960, the earliest year for which national data are available through the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Also, the per capita murder rate for 2009 will be 51 percent lower than the all-time high recorded in 1991, and it will be the lowest rate since 1963—a 46-year low. Final figures for 2009 will be released by the FBI next year.

According to gun control supporter dogma—“more guns means more crime”—the number of privately owned firearms must have decreased 10 percent in 2009. To the contrary, however, the number rose between 1.5 and 2 percent, to an all-time high. For the better part of the last 15 months, firearms, ammunition, and “large” ammunition magazines have been sold in what appear to be record quantities. And, the firearms that were most commonly purchased in 2009 are those that gun control supporters most want to be banned—AR-15s, similar semi-automatic rifles, and handguns designed for defense. The National Shooting Sports Foundation already estimates record ammunition sales in 2009, dominated by .223 Remington, 7.62×39mm, 9mm and other calibers widely favored for defensive purposes.

Also indicative of the upward trend in firearm sales, the number of national instant check transactions rose 24.5 percent in the first six months of 2009 compared to the first six months in 2008, the greatest increase since NICS’ inception in 1998. Through the end of October, NICS transactions rose18 percent, compared to the same period in 2008.

More Guns Means More Crime? Hardly. In 2009, more guns meant less crime, in a very, very big way.

Ron Paul calls it as is in this video. I’ve been hearing a lot from my neo-conservative friends and family how Glenn Beck is such a Constitutionalist and how he’s going after Obama when nobody else will. As we can see in this video, Glenn Beck states he’s a Constitutionalist while supporting filth like the Patriot Act and the Bailout™ in the classic neocon manner. Don’t be fooled by this guy.

For those interested, I have not been posting much lately as is obvious. I am often found on facebook and occasionally posting on my tumblr account.

CBS “60 MINUTES” documentary on the swine flu epidemics of 1976 in the U.S. It went on air only once and was never shown again.

Flea from any vaccinations.

Safety wasn’t much applied at this particular gun safety lesson. If you own a gun, it is a very good thing to practice safety and teach it often. Just hold to the 4 rules and you will never end up like this guy.

Tucson, Arizona | 05.17.2009 - A 26-year-old Phoenix man accidentally killed himself early Sunday morning while explaining gun safety to two Sierra Vista residents.

Samuel Benally Jr. was at an apartment on West Tacoma Street when he said people should keep their guns unloaded because someone could point it at their heads, said Sierra Vista police Sgt. Brett Mitchell.

Benally then demonstrated by putting his own .9 mm Rueger, which he believed to be unloaded, to his head and firing it, Mitchell said.

Benally was flown to University Medical Center where he was pronounced deceased, Mitchell said.

An investigation is ongoing; police do not believe alcohol or drugs were involved, Mitchell said.

You have the right to remain silent and refuse to answer questions. Not that it will do you any good. Do you understand?

Anything you do say, or we say you say if we have more witnesses than you, will be used against you in a court of law, if we think we can get away with it. Do you understand?

You have the right to consult an attorney before speaking to the police and to have an attorney present during questioning now or in the future. You will not have a chance to challenge our lack of standards or scientific method in our lab results and your expert witness will not be allowed to witness anything if we can help it. Do you understand?

At least, according to the 7th Circut Court of Appeals and the punk thugs at the ATF. Read about Olofson’s old AR-15 malfunctioning with a burst of ammo. He’s now in a 30-month prison sentence, and a court battle for owning a “unregistered machine gun”.

A pack of wolves are spotted taking down a moose in the Isle Royale National Park. As this is an island national park, it isn’t that big of a deal. But here in Idaho, wolves have more and more encroached on our role of keeping deer and elk numbers down.

Instead of the state receiving money from hunters to hunt these animals, the damn wolves take them down by the masses. Time to get rid of this pestilence. Idaho approved the first wolf hunt this September. Let us hope that the fascist animal rights activists don’t screw it up again.

The recently drafted “Employer Liability Act” would prohibit an employer from banning the lawful storage of firearms in an employee’s locked vehicle. This bill has not yet been assigned a bill number and time is running out for it to pass this session. Idaho’s business organizations have joined us in supporting this legislation. Now, the members of the legislature need to hear from you on this important issue.

Please contact the members of the Idaho House of Representatives today and respectfully urge them to support the “Employer Liability Act.” Click here for contact information for the members of the Idaho House of Representatives.
