With the new laws in Kalifornia that took away our right to open carry a gun, there may be a silver lining yet. Since this jacked up state is a “may issue” state, and we can no longer carry a gun openly in public, then maybe this is the window that we needed to get this into the SCOTUS. Our rights as citizens of the USA are constantly trampled on by the left. The left owns this state. We need an intervention from the SCOTUS to fix this now.

Gun owners hope to win the right to carry concealed weapons
In an unusual twist, optimism among California gun enthusiasts stems from recent legislation banning them from openly carrying even unloaded handguns.
By Carol J. Williams, Los Angeles Times
Chuck Michel’s strategy for crime-fighting rests on the element of surprise: Keep the bad guys guessing who’s armed and who’s not.
“If 5% of the ducks could shoot back, you’re not going to go duck hunting,” said the Long Beach lawyer representing many Californians denied concealed weapons permits and, in his view, their constitutional right to self-defense.
For decades, that argument has fallen flat in the courtroom. Judges have routinely held that denying permits to carry loaded firearms in public does not infringe on gun owners’ right to keep and bear arms.
But now, some gun owners hope that courts will soon reverse course and find that they have a right to secretly tote their weapons in public. Ironically, their optimism stems from a piece of gun control legislation that took effect last month and bans them from openly carrying even unloaded handguns.
Courts have upheld local law enforcement officials’ authority to deny concealed weapons permits in part because “you had the opportunity to openly carry an unloaded weapon and in the event of an emergency you can quickly load and defend yourself,” said Adam Winkler, a UCLA law professor and author of “Gunfight: The Battle Over the Right to Bear Arms in America.” “Now that option has been taken off the table.”

Mind your own damn business. In fact, get your freeloaders the hell out of this country while you’re at it. Don’t blame the US for your problems that manifest daily in your shithole of a country.
The murdering assholes in your country’s cartels are the source of your gun problem, not the USA.

Firearms Industry Responds to Mexican President’s Calls for U.S. Gun Control
Last week, Mexican President Felipe Calderon unveiled a large sign with the English message “No more weapons!” on a Mexican bridge facing El Paso, Texas. Mr. Calderon used the unveiling of this sign to call for additional gun control measures in the United States, including the reinstitution of a ban on modern sporting rifles. Ironically Mexico, which justifiably guards its sovereignty, seems to have no problem dictating to the United States what our domestic firearms laws should be.
While we respect the work of President Calderon to willingly take on his country’s powerful drug cartels, we continue to be disappointed that he, in the name of security, would urge our Congress to reinstitute a failed ban on so-called “assault weapons.”
Semi-automatic rifles, demonized as so-called “assault weapons,” are not machine guns but modern sporting rifles that are used every day by law-abiding Americans for the shooting sports, hunting and home protection. Since 2004, when the Clinton/Gore ‘assault weapons’ ban expired, modern sporting rifles have fast become one of the most popular types of firearms for law-abiding Americans to purchase. And according to a recent survey, nearly half the people buying modern sporting rifles are either current or retired members of the U.S. military or law enforcement.

A good series from David Codrea. I’ve posted the lead-in for both:
Part One: Time enough for love
“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect every one who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined.” —Patrick Henry, Speech in the Virginia Convention, June 5, 1788
We the People, by and large, have given up that force, abdicating it through ignorance, laziness and apathy. And that includes most members of that citizen militia the Founders deemed “necessary to the security of a free State.”
Henry’s contemporary, and in many ways, ideological opposite, would not have been surprised.
“The project of disciplining all the militia of the United States is as futile as it would be injurious,” Alexander Hamilton warned in Federalist 29.

Part Two: The Little Red Hen
“Who will plant this wheat?”—Paul Galdone, The Little Red Hen
There are an estimated 80 million gun owners in the United States. Only five percent of those are concerned enough about the Second Amendment to join the biggest of the “gun lobby” groups, the National Rifle Association. The numbers drop considerably for smaller organizations, such as Gun Owners of America, and many memberships overlap, with joiners pulling double (or more) duty.
Of this small minority claiming the mantle of “activist” gun owners, how many actually roll up their sleeves and put in time and effort working on freedom-related activities—on top of renewing memberships and reading the magazine?

It’s still being ignored. Watergate was nothing compared to this. It is an absolute farce that Holder has not been impeached. Obama should be impeached if he is found to have any involvement in this obvious conspiracy on the part of this Administration’s DOJ.
They want your guns, so you can’t resist them. This was their moment in the sun. Unfortunately, in their eyes, they’ve been found out.
There needs to be an accounting. Holder is accountable for DOJ’s involvement from the get go, through the aftermath yet to be determined.
AP ‘top 10’ list confirms media still ignoring Fast and Furious story
“The killing of Osama bin Laden during a raid by Navy SEALs on his hideout in Pakistan was the top news story of 2011, followed by Japan’s earthquake/tsunami/meltdown disaster, according to The Associated Press’ annual poll of U.S. editors and news directors,” David Crary of the Associated Press reported, presenting the news agency’s top 10 stories for the year.
Fair enough. They were huge stories. The other stories selected were all noteworthy in their own ways as well, but there is one more that is remarkable in its absence from inclusion: Fast and Furious.

Reblogged from Stately McDaniel Manor:
During the more than a year I was fortunate to share the Confederate Yankee Blog with Bob Owens, its founder, I wrote a series of articles on the rationale and practical issues of gun ownership. With the beginning of a new year, and my new blog, I thought it worthwhile to produce a new, updated series on that issue and the many related issues swirling around it. Among the issues one must consider with care is summed up by two questions and the answers to them: (1) Does evil exist? (2) What must be the …
This is an outstanding read. You are sorely missing out if you don’t read this. I’ve only read the first and can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

H/T Bob Owens.
We have this from the Washington Times. Teh Won is looking to backdoor the Second Amendment through his budget proposal. Wake the fuck up people. If the SCOAMF gets reelected he’s going after the Second Amendment on all fronts. He’ll have nothing to lose.
Obama’s fast and furious spin
Sneaky White House budget provisions undermine the Second Amendment
President Obama is using his budget to advance an anti-gun agenda just before the election. One particularly sneaky provision buried deep within his submission to Congress Monday would, if enacted, allow the mistakes of the “Fast and Furious” gun-walking scandal to be repeated.
In November, the president signed the Justice Department appropriations bill, which included language from Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Republican, prohibiting federal agencies from facilitating the transfer of an operable firearm to an individual known or suspected to be in a drug cartel, unless they monitor the weapon at all times.
Now Mr. Obama is proposing to remove that provision from the 2013 spending bill, thus making it legal to revive gun-walking operations in the future. The White House justification is merely that the prohibition is “not necessary.”

I hate this state’s stance on guns. It doesn’t do anything but get innocent people killed by criminals. The laws they have on the books do one thing, and one thing only. They diminish the rights of American citizens to own a gun and defend themselves against the assholes of society that are already breaking the law. Adding anti-gun laws only helps the criminals, and gang bangers in this state.
It is high time that this state be taken back from the liberal do gooders that have made this state a haven for criminals, gang bangers, illegal aliens and the like.
The politicians in this state are either armed, or have armed security with them and their families at all times. How is that representing the peoples’ will?
I could rant into next week on this, but it almost seems pointless in this commie infested state.
Here’s a rant worth reading:
Tales of the California Gun
Since I live in the “Peoples Republik of Kalifornia” I notice a lot of things that folks in other states don’t. I get a chance to see the drug war, the gang war, the class war and the illegal Immigration war first hand…. Funny how they are all connected here in CA…
In February (So far) there have been 13 declared murders NINE of which involved firearms. Now this is good news I guess because 4 of the 13 KILLED didn’t involve being shot. One was stabbed, one was bludgeoned and two were labeled as “Other”…
This doesn’t include the latest homicide in which an ICE agent shot another ICE agent.
Does anyone know where I’m heading with this? If you don’t you haven’t read my rants before so buckle up cause it’s gonna be a rough ride if you’re a Brady Campaign supporter….

This douche bag needs to get fired. Him and anyone else involved in this fiasco. It’s been going on long enough. The lies are deep with this bunch. I’m glad to see Issa is on his ass like a dog on a bone.
Makes me wonder how much Obama knew and when he knew it.
Issa takes step toward holding Holder in contempt of Congress
By Matthew Boyle
On Tuesday Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House committee on Oversight and Government Reform, took a major step toward holding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for his failure to provide subpoenaed documents and other information about Operation Fast and Furious.
In a Jan. 31 letter, Issa had threatened Holder with such a move if he failed to provide all the subpoenaed documents relating to the Fast and Furious gunwalking scandal by Feb. 9. That deadline has come and gone, and Holder’s Department of Justice still hasn’t provided most of those documents. Issa’s subpoena dates back to Oct. 12, 2011.

This is great news! And it comes from California no less.
The more people that have guns, the better. Guns are the only way that America will stay free. Without guns, government can do whatever the hell it wants to. Just ask Britain.
Ask the Brits about their soaring crime rates while you’re at it.
ROCKLIN CBS13 — If you’ve pulled the trigger on a new firearm this holiday season, join the club.As in your neighborhood shooting club, because faster than a speeding bullet, guns are going out the door.Well, not right away, of course — there is that 10-day waiting period, 11 here at TDS Guns in Rocklin, where Bob Norgard wasn’t caught off-guard.He’s making his purchase today so he’ll have his firearm under the Christmas tree as he joins a growing number of people who say they’re simply “doing what they need to do to protect themselves and their family.”This surge in gun sales — the best holiday sales season in three years, according to the Firearms Dealers Association — got a shot in the arm on Black Friday.
