NEWTOWN, Conn –-(Ammoland.com)- Despite overwhelming public opposition, the Pleasant Hill City Council this past week approved amending a city zoning ordinance banning where law-abiding, federally licensed firearms and ammunition retailers can operate.

In passing the anti-gun zoning changes, the City Council defied Pleasant Hill’s own Planning Commission, which a month earlier voted unanimously against adopting any new zoning restrictions designed to put FFLs out of business.   Continue reading “Pleasant Hill, Calif.

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- Everybody should be properly trained if they intend to use a gun for self-defense, right? No argument here. But should it be mandated by the government?

I say no. Emphatically!

“But Dave,” you might point out, “You are a firearms trainer. Clearly you believe in the importance of training.” And you’d be right. Proper and continued training enhances safety, physical skill and mindset, and mitigates legal risk. These are all good things.   Continue reading “Mandatory Firearms Training? – What if We Had Mandatory Free Speech Training”

Guns ‘n’ Freedom, August 22, 2013

In 1996 Australia unloaded some of the most severe gun bans and gun confiscation programs on record.  And for the guns that were not confiscated gun owners were forced to enter into license agreements and have their guns registered so the government knew what guns everyone had.

Well, they really only knew what guns the law abiding had, since none of the criminals actually followed the program.  Fancy that.   Continue reading “17 Years After Gun Bans in Australia …Police Say Gun Crime is Out of Control”

The US government is set to auction off $18 million worth of bitcoins seized from an online drugs market known as Silk Road. The Department of Justice is looking to make a considerable windfall from the sale with bitcoin increasing in value recently.

The now-defunct cyber-black market was closed down in October of last year, with authorities confiscating 30,000 bitcoin. The FBI also arrested the alleged kingpin of the online drugs bazaar, Ross Ulbricht, seizing roughly 144,000 bitcoin in the process.    Continue reading “US govt to auction $18mn worth of bitcoin seized from Silk Road”

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) — For years, just enough hardcore classic car lovers and curious travelers wandered through the National Corvette Museum in Kentucky to keep the doors open. Now, after a massive sinkhole swallowed eight pristine models of vintage muscle, attendance has skyrocketed.

And visitors are as eager to peer into the chasm as they are to see the ‘Vettes, if not more so. “The response to this has been bigger than anyone could have ever imagined,” said Katie Frassinelli, a spokeswoman for the museum that sits just off Interstate 65 in Bowling Green. “On the one hand, we don’t want to be known as the sinkhole museum. But on the other hand, it’s bringing a lot of people that may not have otherwise come.”   Continue reading “Gearheads, gawkers drawn to ‘Vette museum sinkhole”

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Even as Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as the nation’s official flag in 1777, another American banner was making history on Revolutionary War battlefields.

The plain blue standard with 13 white, six-pointed stars traveled with George Washington to denote his presence as commander in chief of the Continental Army. This month, conservators finished preserving the fragile and faded silk banner — but it won’t be seen publicly anytime soon. It’s one of thousands of objects waiting for a permanent home at the Museum of the American Revolution, which is expected to open in Philadelphia in late 2016.   Continue reading “Washington’s flag awaits museum’s 2016 opening”

President Obama reminded Democratic donors that “our future rests” on the success of people brought to the United States illegally as children, who would qualify for citizenship if Congress had passed the DREAM Act.

“About 30 to 40 percent of the kids in this school, by the way, are DREAM kids,” Obama said Wednesday evening. “You wouldn’t know it looking at them, because they are as American as apple pie.  But every single one of these kids, you might not be able to tell the difference, but a whole bunch of them — they’re worried about whether or not they’re going to be able to finance their college education of their immigrant status.  They’re worried about whether, in fact, this country that they love so deeply loves them back and understands that our future rests on their success.  Why wouldn’t we want to give them that certainty that you are part of the fabric of this nation, we’re counting on you, and we’re going to make sure you succeed?  Why wouldn’t we want to do that?”   Continue reading “Obama: ‘Our Future Rests’ On The Success Of DREAM Kids”

The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), a U.S. Muslim Brotherhood entity, is proudly announcing that the U.S. military is again using their chaplains for active-duty service after a 15-year lull.

ISNA has a well-documented extremist history. In 1991, the Muslim Brotherhood listed ISNA as one of its main fronts. Declassified FBI memos said ISNA is a component of the Muslim Brotherhood, who sees its “work in America as a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within.”   Continue reading “U.S. Military Hires Chaplains Endorsed by Brotherhood Entity”

Tel Aviv has been named the world’s number one gay city.

The Israeli metropolis beat out competition from New York to top a survey carried out by American Airlines and GayCities.com to find the most popular destination for gay travellers.

It landed a staggering 43 per cent of the vote, way ahead of runner-up New York’s 14 per cent and third-placed Toronto with 7 per cent.   Continue reading “Tel Aviv trumps New York to be named world’s best gay city”

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is welcoming members of Congress and their senior staff to tour a temporary shelter being used to house illegal immigrant children — but the invite comes with a list of rules, including a suggestion that members leave their cellphones in their vehicles.

The 40-minute tour will take place Friday at the Ventura County Naval Base in Oxnard, Calif., according to the email invitation, obtained by The Daily Caller.   Continue reading “Child Immigrant Facility ‘Dog And Pony Show’ Invite Comes With Tons Of Rules”

There we have it on top (10,700’) of Mt. Graham, AZ. at the Jesuit observatory…..L.U.C.I.F.E.R.  Old Glory is displayed with the German and Italian flag.  This display is, I believe, a symbol of the New World Order unity and equality as all flags are equal in height.  In the picture it looks like the Italian flag may be a tad higher but I think they looked pretty equal in person.

It was our Congress that approved this project.  I would love to know how much this cost and where the money came from.      Continue reading “Jesuit Observatory L.U.C.I.F.E.R.”

It is now estimated that 99,000 children have been transported through our border with Mexico and into the United States since the beginning of this year. It has been suspected that Barack Obama is deliberately allowing and condoning this, as a way to apply theCloward-Piven strategy to immigration and overwhelm our Southern border with so many Mexican children and illegal aliens that it will force Congress to capitulate to his demand to pass amnesty. Now this has been proven true.   Continue reading “Obama Regime ‘proactively facilitating human-trafficking’ over Mexican border”

It is the nature of a right that it is – and must be – absolute. If their are codicils, appendices, restrictions, however, and buts, then it is a privilege, granted and controlled by others.
