» New Rule on Guns in Parks Takes Effect February 22

On February 22, a new law on guns in national parks takes effect. The law repeals a National Park Service rule that has long prohibited Americans from lawfully possessing firearms in national parks for self-defense.

The new law, passed last spring by an overwhelming bipartisan vote in the U.S. Senate, will allow people to possess, carry and transport firearms in national parks, in accordance with state law.

Cause you know how it burns the lefties' toast to have a new pro-gun law go into effect.

» Contact Starbucks And Protect The Right-To-Carry

Brady Campaign’s latest desperate attempt at relevancy involves a publicity stunt attacking Starbucks for allowing the lawful carry of firearms in its stores as provided for by state law.

They say “It’s everyone’s right to sit in a restaurant or coffee shop with their families without intimidation or fear of guns,”
Oh! I agree! If I can sit in Starbucks with my LEGAL pistol by my side, then I will have much less fear of the guns being carried ILLEGALLY by others.

Members, gun owners, and all freedom-loving citizens should contact Starbucks to thank them for complying with state law, and respectfully encourage the company to stay above the fray into which anti-gun activists are trying to drag them. Click here to do so.

About a month ago, an employee of Hardees told me that she was afraid of me. I asked if she thought I looked mean or was she just afraid of the gun.
"the gun", she said.
"The gun carried legally, in the open, may be the one that saves your life from the gun carried illegally in some gang-banger's underwear."

» Legislation to Repeal Alabama's Ban on Short Barreled Rifles and Shotguns Advancing!

Sponsored by State Representative Jeremy Oden (R-11), HB 2 would amend the Alabama statute that prohibits the possession, sale, receipt, or use of rifles with barrels less than 16 inches long and shotguns with barrels less than 18 inches long. These firearms are already legal under federal law when properly registered.

Rifle length restrictions date back to the 1930's. After prohibition was repealed the government had thousands of 'special' law enforcement officers with no laws to enforce. Thus was born the ATF.
A brand new bureau of ex-tax collectors with guns and badges, given unconstitutional authority to make up their own rules and laws to enforce.
Rifle lengths was one of the seemingly arbitrary laws written by unelected tax collectors ... and one of the anti-gun laws that need to be struck down nationwide.
