Dealers hijack Seattle’s gun buyback with makeshift gun show

"Following the mass shooting at an elementary school in Connecticut last month, Seattle raised $120,000 to hold the first gun buyback effort in 20 years at a downtown parking lot on Saturday. The plan was to trade gift cards for guns that would later be destroyed, but a number of dealers set up a mini-gun show just a block away in a effort to buy up the guns and keep them in circulation. 'I pay cash, I don’t give Amazon gift cards,' one dealer told a gun seller in video captured by KING. 'It’s a historical firearm, I would hate to see it get destroyed,' a buyer remarked to another gun owner. 'I’ll give you $100 cash for it.'" Continue reading →

WI sheriff tells residents to get ‘in the game’ and arm themselves

"A Wisconsin sheriff has drawn criticism from other public officials for a radio commercial telling residents not to wait for authorities to help them and to arm themselves for protection. Milwaukee County Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr. can be heard in the ad saying, 'With officers laid off and furloughed, simply calling 911 and waiting is no longer your best option. You could beg for mercy from a violent criminal, hide under the bed, or you can fight back.' Clarke also encourages residents to sign up for firearms training courses, saying, 'I need you in the game,' and, 'We’re partners now. Can I count on you?'" Continue reading →

Castro’s Take on Gun-Control Coincides With Our Rulers’

"All the arms that were found by the rebel army are stored and locked in barracks, where they belong. What are these arms for? Against whom are they going to be used? Against the revolutionary government that has the support of all the people? Do we have a dictatorship here? Are we going to take up arms against a free government that respects the rights of the people? We have a free country here. ... There is no tormenting of political prisoners, no murders, no terror. When all the rights of the citizens have been restored ... why do we need arms?" Continue reading →

They Voted for Hitler in Austria (and He Put In Gun Controls)

"What I am about to tell you is something you’ve probably never heard or will ever read in history books. I believe that I am an eyewitness to history. I cannot tell you that Hitler took Austria by tanks and guns; it would distort history. We elected him by a landslide – 98% of the vote. I’ve never read that in any American publications. Everyone thinks that Hitler just rolled in with his tanks and took Austria by force. Totalitarianism didn’t come quickly, it took 5 years from 1938 until 1943, to realize full dictatorship in Austria. Had it happened overnight, my countrymen would have fought to the last breath. Instead, our only weapons were broom handles." Continue reading →

Homeland Security buys 7000 full-auto assault rifles, calls them ‘personal defense weapons’

"Keep in mind that President Obama is on the record saying, 'AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals; that they belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our cities.' But it seems he really means they don't belong on the streets of our cities unless they are in the hands of homeland security enforcers, in which case they can be FULL-AUTO assault weapons. The DHS bid for 7,000 full-auto assault weapons is found by clicking here. " Continue reading →

LAPD Spied on 21 Using StingRay Anti-Terrorism Tool

"A secretive cellphone spy device known as StingRay, intended to fight terrorism, was used in far more routine LAPD criminal investigations 21 times in a four-month period during 2012, apparently without the courts' knowledge that the technology probes the lives of non-suspects who happen to be in the same neighborhood as suspected terrorists. StingRay, which allows police to track mobile phones in real time, was tapped for more than 13 percent of the 155 'cellular phone investigation cases' last year. LAPD purchased StingRay technology sometime around 2006 with federal Department of Homeland Security funds." Continue reading →
