"During 2000--2002, the Task Force on Community Preventive Services (the Task Force), an independent nonfederal task force, conducted a systematic review of scientific evidence regarding the effectiveness of...
Also a Mannlicher M1895, which are probably still pretty cheap. I got one from J&GSales 4 years ago for $150 + $15 shipping that came with matching bayonet. Picked up 4 of the en bloc clips for $20. The downside is the ammo is hard to find. Very nifty little rifle though; straight pull, en bloc...
It's a bit like if the CEO of Diageo got hit by a drunk driver and people were now making mean spirited memes with a picture of him in the hospital. Knowing how the Internet can be though, I wouldn't be surprised if that happened.

This law is rather important in that it is explicitly targeted at gun owners who by definition are law abiding. After all,
If they were a violent criminal there was already a Federal law against them possessing a gun, has been since at least 1938...

*IMHO this has nothing to do with race per se, and everything to do with gangs and the War on Drugs.
Heck, the whole market has done very well for the last 5 - 7 years. The question is how much are their shenanigans holding back their performance and raising fees/commissions/etc?
Edit to add: well, that didn't take long on Google. Apparently mismanagement, high fees, and playing politics like...
One of the best funded or one of the best managed? After all, Bernie Madoff was pretty well funded.
If they're considered well managed, those other public pension systems must be setting the bar awfully low. I'm no expert, but from that article it really sounds like the managers are churning...
:shrug:
All they're going to accomplish is lowering returns for their fund members. Heck, they might even run the fund into the ground. Not that they probably care, I'm sure the managers are getting rich off their fees. They're basically the stereotypical 1% that the protesters were talking...
This is dumb on a number of levels:
If they're picking individual stocks then by definition they're not using index funds in their pension fund, which means they're most likely ripping their customers off on fees :uhoh:
They're not only stock picking and probably charging high fees...
Something else to consider; anti-gunners love to say that high gun ownership should prevent mass shootings, while conveniently forgetting that even if 100% of non-criminals owned guns that wouldn't prevent any crimes in public if citizens aren't allowed to legally carry sidearms.
When it's not...
That's why having this
on the ballot wouldn't be such a bad thing. If it wins, the losing candidates should be barred from running for public office for at least the next few elections.
If I could go back to Jan 2009 when I bought my first gun I'd have told myself not to. I still like that 1911, but it wasn't worth what I paid. I compounded the mistake by buying it off post in WA, thereby getting hit with the 9.3% mark up. I don't regret the second one at all, but I should have...
Cook and Ludwig, hardly shrills for the NRA, tried their best to show that the 1968 GCA and the Brady Bill accomplished something. They were unable to:

There's numerous problems with even their "crime guns exported". If they're pulling their "trafficked guns" data from the same place Bloomberg did then they're using ATF trace data: https://www.atf.gov/about/firearms-trace-data-2014. There's a couple issues with that though, and the ATF says it...
Depends on what definition of a mass shooting we're running with. The VPC likes to use a definition that includes those news stories since it drives up the raw number of mass shootings. Most though use the definition of at least 3 homicide victims in one incident, and those are also the cases...
Sort of. It seems like there's a bit of confusion going on between 'local' and 'small' businesses. Just because they have a website doesn't make a business an IBM or a Microsoft.
Transfer fees aren't a complaint against small or local businesses, they're a complaint against the stupidity of...
They couldn't care less about safety, it's just that their PR advisers told them that "gun safety" sounds better than "gun control".

That law badly needs to be fixed, amended, scrapped, something. Or a truly pro-gun President could just order the ATF to declare all Title I firearms to be curios. That law is seriously anti free commerce. Don't even get me started on the import restrictions...
Heck, I've known people in the Army who didn't even own a gun but had more than 20 mags at home with their gear between mags for the M16/M4 and the M9. :uhoh:
Of course, even if that was done CA would still have their silliness: https://www.empirearms.com/cal-ffl.htm
You know, because before they commit a homicide someone would be sure to want to pay $30 to send the ATF their name, SSN, and home address first :scrutiny:
