A straight up gun bill will not pass, but a gun bill attached to another bill has a chance. The credit card bill and national parks is an example. S 371, a national 50 state reciprocity bill has no chance of passing on its own, we didn't get it under Bush, and on it's own, no way under...

We must realize that getting our rights back will require attacks on mulitple levels. Building bridges is critical and we will have to reach left. This weekend I was spent time with a French Documentary crew who are making a documentary to be broadcasted in Europe before our elections...

Our country is in serious financial trouble yet we are spending hundreds of billions of dollars overseas defending other countries. Those other countries are not in debt, they have lower tax rates than we do, they have their national defense subsidized by us. Many of those countries of...

Many on this board think that the Heller case may lead to full auto. Well, here is my observation. Bakc in 1934 common arms for the infantry were bolt action rifles. It was this way through WW2 except for the United States, we adopted the semi auto Garand in the late 1930's. It gave US...

http://bulk.resource.org/courts.gov/c/F2/960/960.F2d.121.91-1149.html Found this case from the 7th circuit. It is a 1992 case. US vs Rock Island Armory(1992) 7th circuit. I am not a lawyer, and this ruling got me confused, which is why I figured some of you guys could give your...

We are often compared to England and other countries. I am just curious. Since we have varying gun laws in America has anyone done the created the following. Violent crime rates for the "free states". I define a free state as a state that has shall issue ccw and no AW ban. Violent crime...

Robert Levy, a lawyer at the CATO institute, personally funded the Heller case. We must remember that when the case was orginally started, many in our community were against it. The NRA intially tried to derail the case in the early stages. The Fed district court dismissed the case, it...

I have a proposal here if anyone is in these states and would like to help make a dent for CCW reform and help build case law on the 2nd amendment in mulitple Federal districts. The cases are very simple. All these states discriminate against non resident CCW permit holders. To me it...

Caught a blip on yahoo news about a guy who drove his rented truck into a crowded mall, jumped out of the truck, then stabbed 17 people, 7 of which died in 3 minutes. When police arrived, he dropped his knife when police armed with guns confronted him. The camera showed a short samuri type...

Heller will probably open opportunities with the 2nd amendment. What I would like people on this forum is to consider 14th amendment or equal protection issues, especially with regards to ccw permits. We have large groups of people who are discriminated against by state law for no other...

Over the years I have noticed our side has well reasoned and sound arguements to support and justify our right to keep and bear arms. Our opponents resort to emotion, they have no facts, yet they still have support, why. Based on what I have learned in the last few years I have to agree...

It seems to me that our gun rights get attacked because of problems caused by other issues. Attacking us allows gun control supporters to dvert attention and that is something we should look at. We need to go on the offense and not allowing politicians to scapegoat us should be something to...

Patrick MCullough is running for city council in Oakland Ca. Last year he was forced to defend himself from drug dealers and he shot a drug dealer dead. I can hear the violins. I talked with Pat today, he is not making guns an issue in his campaign since Oakland is very anti gun, but he is...

Hey everyone. I have never gone hunting in my life, been born in NYC, I left as soon as I could, even though I am in California. I am leaning toward hunting because I do not want to eat animals that are full of hormones, anti biotics and have lived unnatural lives. I don't see myself...

I don't know about the rest of you, but all the financial gurus advocate developing your own business and getting out of the "job market". I'm always looking and at this time I have my focus on a home based business which will allow me to phase out my job. This would eliminate the no guns...

Lat night Jim Carrey was on Letterman. Since he came on stage in a robe, his timing got messed up due to daylight savings time, he was late. Dave had some clothes brought in which Jim Changed into on stage. During the process, he asked Dave to hold his Glock while he was getting...

Much discussion happens on this forum and others about gun rights. What I would like to address is what are our "gun responsiblities". Where I am going with this is both of those countries have modern day versions of many of the features "our militia" would have if previous generations had...

Friend of mine at the Gym told me how he had to plea bargain on domestic violence here in California. Basically his wife had an affair, he goes to wife, puts knife to her throat, tells her he could cut her throat, but she isn't worth it. She calls the cops and asks what she should do, Cops...

My daughter is leaving off campus in Davis Ca. She told me that the lease in her apartment has a "no guns clause". She is moving, but the next apartment complex has the same "no guns" policy. This are not apartments owned by the University. My question is does anyone know if this is...

A quick look at this board indicates that there are 14,000 active users and close to 65,000 members. We have alot of work do do here in Califorina. A few big issues would be a RKBA propostion and CCW reform to a shall issue system. I'm of the mindset that we have to say enough is enough...
