Cartoonish Call for More ATF Funding Disregards Bureau Time-to-Crime Stats.

Seeing as how there’s not a “source state” on the map that can’t be driven to in hours, or at most in two days, the lack of newer model firearms would seem to indicate that “pipeline” is pretty severely clogged. Either that or the whole concept is a fiction created by gun-grabbers to mask the utter failure of their efforts to date at achieving promised results — and to cast the blame for that on states where their grasp is not as tight.

Anonymous said...: The pipeline scam is much akin to the NRAs state preemption scam. Both are lies made up to impose and justify more gun control by ignoring the authority of the Second Amendment itself.

Stop guns manufactured in a city, blame the state. top gun manufacture in a state, blame another state. Stop manufacturing in all states, blame another country. (Notice mexico already employs this excuse currently). All this holds true with selling guns too. It is all a never ending, expanding, path to more power for government, more gun control.

The NRA does exactly the same thing. It claims state power is needed, in the form of preemption, in order to combat local government infringements. Yet, state preemption gets states doing exactly what cities and counties were doing, which preemption was supposedly going to address. SO what happens when all 50 states have preemption?

Well, then the NRA can jump to fundraising for escalating federal power, naturally calling it "federal preemption of state powers". Gotta stop all those differing laws from state to state right? Well DUH, we already HAVE that preemption! It is called the Second Amendment.

The gun controllers all run the same scam. Some may find it uncomfortable, especially the Fudds, but it is what it is regardless.

Notice we had a three hour presidential debate last night.
Not ONE mention of the word G-U-N. True Mike Huckabee made on tiny mention of "the second amendment" in passing but even he didn't say the word gun.

Why no "GUN CONTROL" question, CNN? Well, here is why, and why it fits here. The gun controllers are running out of excuses. The more they run around like chickens with their heads cut off, the more they scramble, the more they are exposed as running the same playbook. Their solution is to shhhhhhhhhh. It is the only way they don't get nailed.; September 17, 2015 at 12:55 PM

"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.
