12 Americans murdered daily, by illegal aliens

WASHINGTON – While the military “quagmire” in Iraq was said to tip the scales of power in the U.S. midterm elections, most Americans have no idea more of their fellow citizens – men, women and children – were murdered this year by illegal aliens than the combined death toll of U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan since those military campaigns began.

Do your country a favor. Report Illegal Aliens.

Opposing Concealed Weapons in the Wilderness
a bill recently introduced in Congress that would allow people with concealed-carry permits take weapons into their home state’s national parks. The indefatigably anti-gun New York Times warned that the measure is a step toward “nationalizing the armed paranoia that the National Rifle Association and its cohorts stand for” and “can only endanger the public.” More…

So I can carry in a bar? But not a national forest? Silly liberals.

Move Over, Gun-owner Stereotypes!

The stereotypical image of a burly Bambi-killer that many Iowans may have conjured up in the past when imagining a gun owner has been evolving and blurring over the years.

Now, gun owners include women, children, urbanites, and “just what you see out there” in the community, local business owners and National Rifle Association officials said.

As a result, many gun manufacturers now produce entire lines designed specifically for women and children, said Roger Howe, owner of the Ammo Bearer, 232 Stevens Drive.

Although the majority of his patrons still are male, he said, numerous women are purchasing guns. A 2001 survey conducted by the National Opinion Research Center showed 39.2 percent of men own guns, compared with 10.2 percent of women. More…

Teach your woman about defending herself, her children, and her body. Teach her to use your gun.

Truly lame idea for gun exchange

Oakland’s latest pitch for violence prevention, a gun-exchange program in two of the city’s toughest neighborhoods, would work well as a comedy skit.

This Saturday in Sobrante Park and next week in DeFremery Park, city officials will reward anyone who turns in a gun with two tickets to the Dec. 15 concert by hard-rock band Guns N’ Roses at Oracle Arena.

Offering Guns N’ Roses tickets in the northwest Oakland neighborhood known as “Ghostown” and Sobrante Park on the east side of town is like giving cats free tickets to the dog show.

What’s next, a free pass to Michael Richards stand-up act? There is surely a disconnect between the city’s promotional plan and the marketplace.

“Guns N’ Roses — the band?” asked Mike Magardo, a 34-year-old Oakland resident. “I think that’s a little off the mark. In general, the folks who would show up for a gun exchange in those neighborhoods either don’t know or care who Guns N’ Roses are.” More…

Now don’t get me wrong… I enjoy a good head banging session to some G ‘n’ R on the way out to a job… but these fool “officials” have their cards in the wrong places. And the author of this is still a gun-control tool.

    Thanks for the heads-up, Chad. That’s quite a thought-provoking article, especially when I think of all the illegal repeat offenders who are featured in my collection of Scumbag targets.

    Off topic, but I really liked your blog header that said something about “where the honkeys are tonkin.”

    Hope you and yours are happy, well, and safe. BTW, I have a 15 y/o son who will need a wife in a few years or so (after college, of course). IIRC, you have an available (and very cute) little sister who is a good shooter. Want to negotiate?

    Ah yes… Your scumbag targets. Classic.

    The subtitle that said “take me to where the honkies are a tonkin” comes from a song just put out by Josh Turner. He teamed up with John Anderson, and the song is called “white noise”. My favorite Turner/Anderson song of all.

    “Talkin bout the white noise, comin’ from the white boys. Take me where the honkies are a tonkin!”

    You can hear the sample on this page. song number 6.

    And as far as my sister goes… I’ll trade her for a milk cow and yer best deer rifle. :lol:

    I’ll say it again. If you want illegal immigrants to go away, crack down on the people who make a huge profit emlpoying them at everyone else’s expense. All the illegal immigrant crime, etc. is a symptom of the real problem: that they can find jobs and money here. If there were proper enforcement of our employment laws, it’d be the mexicans who would need the fence and border guards. Those day laborers are just pawns, if you’re serious about tackling the problem, go after the kingpins, not the foot soldiers.

    That’s an excellent point, Simon.

    Chad, when I can procure a good Jersey milker for you, we’ll talk some more. While Michael may have his own (odd and flawed) criteria for eligible partners, Princess Terry & I are mainly concerned with two: 1) that she be saved, and 2) that she has always been a female. ;)
