Guns And The Laws That Govern Them

Its better to cuddle up with your gun,
ideally, a .38 revolver I think, for the young.
Upgrade to .44 special when thay can handle the recoil.


Well, raise your voice and TELL
the adults who u r, b4 u just barge in there.
Then u r less likely to get the 1 gun salute.


No. Statistically, 8O% of victims of a gunshot wound survive.


Its better to TELL her who u r before barging in there.
Don 't leave it open for speculation.


Yes. I did not.
Some of my girlfriends did (not genetically related to me).

Detroit police chief: ‘No question in my mind’
legal gun ownership deters crime

Detroit has experienced 37 percent fewer robberies than it did last year,
and Police Chief James Craig is crediting armed citizens for the drop.

“Criminals are getting the message that good Detroiters are armed
and will use that weapon,” said Chief Craig, who has been an open
advocate for private gun ownership, the Detroit News reported.
“I don’t want to take away from the good work our investigators are doing,
but I think part of the drop in crime, and robberies in particular,
is because criminals are thinking twice that citizens could be armed.

“I can’t say what specific percentage is caused by this, but there’s
no question in my mind it has had an effect,” he added.

In addition to the drop in robberies, Detroit has seen 22 percent fewer
break-ins of businesses and homes and 30 percent fewer carjackings
in 2014 than during the same period last year, the Detroit News reported.

People shud carry guns
as emergency equipment (like an asthma inhaler)
for personal protection, not to generate emotions.

Many of us carry CONCEALED, Rex.





David

Rex, I address anyone and everyone with the same friendly politeness
regardless of whether he is a sheriff or a civilian, or a soldier
or whether or not he is visibly carrying a defensive gun.

Additionally, I have never had occasion to "fear"
anyone whom I saw in possession of a gun; no need for that.





David

Men can fear any un-armed politician
because of the political power that he wields.

Stalin & Hitler were not known
for carrying guns; were thay feared??????? U bet thay were!

Barney Fife carried a gun. Was HE either respected or feared ?

By Sheriff David Clarke, Jr.

Billionaire Michael R. Bloomberg could learn a thing or two from the
Biblical story about an Israelite soldier named David, who went up
against Goliath, a giant of a man and a powerful foe. Using just a sling
and a stone, David brought Goliath down to his knees and destroyed him.

Mr. Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York, made a huge political
miscalculation when he sauntered into my territory of Milwaukee
County, Wis. — a solid-blue county that overwhelmingly votes
Democrat — expecting an easy signature win for his failing crusade
to disarm law-abiding Americans.

Willing to spend up to $50 million of his wealth to help defeat
any pro-gun candidate, he focuses his aim on those running for state
legislative and congressional offices. His plan is to enact gun-control
legislation state by state, since he realizes there is no appetite in
Congress to enact federal gun-control legislation, not even for the
misleading idea called universal background checks.

Two years ago, I ran a series of self-defense local radio ads advising
residents that they are the first line of defense in their own safety.
I told them to consider taking a firearms-safety course so they could
defend themselves and their families from imminent attack.

In April, I spoke at the National Rifle Association’s convention in
Indianapolis, and that brought me into Mr. Bloomberg’s cross hairs.

A pro-gun incumbent sheriff in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, beat
back the anti-gun money of former New York City Mayor Michael
Bloomberg to win his primary contest for re-election by a handy
margin, 52-48...


According to one Democratic Party source, Mr. Bloomberg said of his
attempt to knock me off in my re-election primary for sheriff,
“This one is personal with me.” That is a sign of desperation. Yes,
even billionaires can be greedy. Surely, Mr. Bloomberg saw me as an
easy win that he could parade around the country as a warning to
other pro-gun candidates to either get in line with his anti-gun
movement or face defeat at the polls. He saw picking off a big-city,
pro-gun sheriff as a prize worth landing.

So in parachuted billionaire Mr. Bloomberg, dropping $150,000 on my
opponent in a weekend TV blitz that depicted me as a gun nut, hell-
bent on arming every law-abiding citizen in Milwaukee County.

Mr. Bloomberg’s plan didn’t work. People here are smarter than he
thought, and they did not like this outsider rolling into town trying
to oust Wisconsin’s only black sheriff.

Had Mr. Bloomberg done his homework, he might have decided to go
elsewhere in search of his signature gun-control win. Wisconsin
happens to be a state where shooting sports are popular and deer
hunting is sacrosanct. State law allows people with licenses to carry
concealed weapons. The fatal mistake he made was not doing his due
diligence before betting on what he either thought or heard was my
certain electoral demise Aug. 12. His hubris doesn’t require him to
assess the political climate before he puts his money on the table.

Another liberal, radical attack interest group, the Greater Wisconsin
Committee, had just committed $400,000 toward a final two-week TV
ad blitz, excoriating me and building up my opponent. This attack was
financed by Milwaukee’s liberal millionaire county executive, Chris
Abele, and spent an unprecedented amount of outsider money for
a local sheriff’s primary election anywhere.

At this point, I truly felt like David in the Bible’s Book of Samuel
(17:49), outgunned and overmatched by a millionaire and a billionaire.
There was no way I could match them dollar for dollar.

The rock I used to slay these two giants was conservative talk radio.
I was provided daily support via program segments, which criticized
the outside influence of Mr. Bloomberg’s money in Milwaukee to take
down the conservative, pro-gun sheriff. Talk radio was the get-out-
the-vote mechanism that drove conservatives to vote for me in record numbers.
Together with the support of the black vote, GoliathBloomberg went
down to defeat 52 percent to 48 percent. He was last seen taking
a beating from national liberal and conservative blogs and editorial
comments that followed our win.

This was no ordinary defeat for Mr. Bloomberg’s “Mayors Against
the Second Amendment” group. Losing to a local sheriff in a county
dominated by Democratic Party voters just might have set his futile
movement back to a point of no recovery.

Some people might generally be in support of changes that make it
more difficult for criminals to acquire guns, but they also recognize
and reject the true objective of Mr. Bloomberg, which is to obliterate
the right to keep and bear arms. Here in Milwaukee County, you
cannot buy votes; you have to earn them.

David A. Clarke Jr. is sheriff of Milwaukee County, Wis.

Rex, did u see
my Barney Fife refutation of your post (hereinabove set forth) ?





David

Did Rex flee??
He did not answer whether he saw
my Barney Fife refutation hereinabove set forth.

GREAT JOY!!!

D.C. is in the cross hairs of a Second Amendment fight.
The city is the only place in the country that has a complete ban
on carrying guns outside the home.

Last month, U.S. District Court Judge Frederick Scullin ruled in the
Palmer case that the law was unconstitutional and D.C. had to allow people to carry guns.
In an exclusive interview, D.C. City Council Chairman Phil Mendelson
told FOX 5 on Thursday that he will appeal the gun carry ruling,
making the information public for the first time.
[All emfasis and color has been EXULTANTLY added by David.]

This will bring the case up to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
and on to the USSC.

This is to gun control
as the Fall of the Berlin Wall was to communism.





David

OK, we AGREE on that one.

There is a slight bit of hope for you David...

I thawt u said I was supposed to be on Ignore, Rex!?

What happened ?





David

Sometimes I look to see which way the wind is blowing.

Yea, that must be it.

I doubt that I 'll ever get to your State,
but if I ever do, I 'd like to have dinner with u.

I might consider that if you did not have to show up packing a gun. Maine is a quiet and generally law abiding place.
