Sipsey Street Irregulars: In crying over the loss of the M855 ban, Pravda-on-the-Potomac tells us what they really want.

In crying over the loss of the M855 ban, Pravda-on-the-Potomac tells us what they really want.

"The proposed ban on certain armor-piercing bullets won’t end gun violence; background checks are more important." Ah, yes, why worry about firearms and ammunition when you can register law-abiding gun owners and force citizens to obtain government permission to engage in commerce?

He's not concerned about people being injured and/or killed with firearms during the commission of crimes. He's concerned about how an armed populous stops him from completing his socialist agenda. He is the exact type of person the 2nd amendment was designed to protect us from.

Never EVER give up your guns and ammo! It is the one thing that keeps us free! Shoot those who try to illegally take them!

"Illegally" meaning the attempt to disarm a law abiding citizen.; March 14, 2015 at 9:56 AM

For America's down fall, into total Socialism. Wait and see when Hitlery Clinton becomes POTUS, in 2016. The Clinton's, blood lust and hatred of America was not sated @ Waco, Ruby Ridge and OKC.

...Got a feelin' things will be different next time...The alphabet agencies will have to watch their flank...but even that won't help much...not with the sheer numbers that will have them surrounded.

Just think! WE will get to arrest some feds and take THEIR weapons!
Or have a hell of a gunfight with them...which they will lose...; March 14, 2015 at 1:22 PM

Makes you wonder just who exactly he considered to be his constituents. The D party hopefully doesn't depend on the votes of career criminals. Convicted felons can't vote. ;-) But their relatives do. So Obama & Co. don't want to see wholesale elimination of "da boyz from da" hood. Which makes their toleration of shootings in Chicago's south side all the more puzzling.; March 14, 2015 at 2:42 PM

The article says "...the NRA ...construes nearly every potential gun regulation, no matter how sensible, as an intolerable violation of the Constitution".

I reject the premise. The gun grabbers construe every law that would infringe on the Second Amendment as 'sensible'.

They also fail to mention the fact that Gun Owners of America was also instrumental in beating this latest usurpation of freedoms back. Maybe that's because they are obsessed with making the NRA the boogey man on which to blame all violence in America. In reality, it's liberal policies that cause most of America's problems. But they won't print that inconvenient truth.; March 14, 2015 at 2:46 PM
Anonymous said...: Blinded by irrational hatred they really do believe it is Constitution abiding gun owners who are responsible for all crime involving firearms - not their dedicated voters and supporters.

The biggest 'crime' is the opposition to their utopian, wealth-sharing (stealing!) fundamentally communistic policies - Of course ...

Transparency in Government only because we can see right through them and their lies.

Bwaaaaa ha ha ha ha ha he he he haw haw haw haw.
Yeah, right.

Hey WaPo- here's some SENSIBLE letter laws.
You are now only allowed to use vowels on Tuesday and you are only allowed two paragraphs per article on Thursdays. Oh and you can only load sentences with words to the tune of less than ten. Eleven is a crime. Yeah and you can only sell one paper a month too.

Just applying to your right what you apply to mine, see.
Oh, that's wrong? It's wrong to abridge rights? Well IMAGINE THAT.....

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
