Happy Birthday Mr. Kalashnikov!

by Adam on November 23, 2009

The creator of the famed AK-47 turned 90 last week!  When Mikhail Kalashnikov first created this simple combination of metal and wood in 1947 I am sure he had no idea he would revolutionize the gun industry world wide and turn it into Russia’s second biggest export next to Vodka!

Here’s Steve Colbert’s report on the monumental birthday of the man who spawned everyone’s favorite assault rifle.

Advocates of a strict gun control policy claim that by enacting stricter gun laws criminals will be dissuaded from using guns during their crimes.  In fact nothing could be further from the truth!  Criminals know that people aren’t armed and by simply breaking the gun policy laws they can get away with anything they want.

A tragic example of this the recent attack at Fort Hood.  The disgruntled major who attacked his fellow soldiers knew that the fort was under a strict gun control policy and was in a “federal gun-free zone” where penalties for carrying a concealed weapon are much stricter than normal.  Obviously he did not care.  He was on a mission to kill as many people as he could and didn’t care about his own life let alone some gun regulation.

All he knew was that his victims would be unarmed!  The gun control reasons that are shoved down our throats by the media and politician looking to gain votes by cranking out the right sound bites are ridiculous. 

Not only are these people walking all over the Constitution but they are keeping us from being able to defend ourselves. 

This madness has to end.  Start by finding out if any politician (mayor, state senators, senators, congressmen, president) that have a say over what happens to you voted for gun control measures that are jeopardizing your freedom and safety.  Then don’t vote for them next time they come up for reelection!

Be informed and take away from these people what they cherish the most; their power!

Chicago Handgun Ban to be Reviewed by Supreme Court

November 1, 2009

The Supreme Court of the United States agreed to hear a case challenging Chicago’s draconian gun laws on early this month.
Chicago has long had some of the nation’s strictest gun laws.  Chicago mandates that all firearms be registered but does not allow handguns to be registered.  This makes hand guns illegal in the city unless [...]
