gun sane

I just put my Henry H0001 through a workout and it didn't let me down.  It's also a terrific company with exceptional customer service.  I've owned two Ruger 10/22s but Henry puts the fun back into plinking and small animal hunting.  It retails locally at $289.

Here's an interesting pushback group.  Turns out some of the mayors are dirtier than the BGs they claim to oppose.   http://www.stopillegalmayors.com/

I don't know about the 9mm, but I almost bought some .40 X-Tremes until I saw that they were sized to .400.  My gun likes .401.  Just picky I guess....

  Some mayors stumbled into MAIG unawares, but Taylor is on record as being in lockstep with Bloomberg.  Progressives prey on the dumb and dumber.

  I hear the sound of thundering hooves!

Here's one of the centerpieces of Alexander's campaign.  It even smells like fish, too.   http://www.redstate.com/jayp/2013/07/27/senator-lamar-alexanders-fishy-voting-record/

What?  Cancel Dish and miss brain food like "Pawn Stars"?

Here's our other wasted senatorial vote.  This is why it's essential that we have an anti-Alexander candidate who has a backbone for freedom.   http://timesfreepress.com/news/2013/aug/19/sen-bob-corker-criticized-working-democrats/

I don't know anything about Carr but he has my vote, too. What the heck's got into me? Didn't Obummer start this way?

Hawes Western Marshal thumb buster in .357 magnum.  I used it as part of my costume that I wore while a buddy and I competed in chili cooking contests back in the '70s.  It was a real hoot to shoot black powder blanks through.

Just how big was your spider again?   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7O0QUT9KzU

Again, Levin is not talking about a constitutional convention.  It's representatives of state legislatures convening to propose, debate, vote upon and approve or reject amendments which will have immediate effect upon the constitution.  Congress, the president or the Supreme Court have no jurisdiction in this matter.  It only requires notification to Congress that the states will convene.  If we can't find or trust anyone to assume a leadership position for the people's good, how will we stop this monstrous juggernaut of a socialistic government that we have now, short of rag-tag, disorganized squads of pseudo-militiamen going up against a highly trained, equipped and organized superior force?  And who are you going to trust as officers to lead this second revolution?   Americans were facing the same dilemma after the Revolutionary War.  Only 1/3 of the citizenry actually took part in the fight.  The rest were Tories or other sideline sitters.  But the framers of the Constitution and government got it done because it HAD to be done.  If we call ourselves constitutionalists, why don't we use the Constitution and every available provision left to us before we get into something that will be a lot harder to overcome?

We got into the mess because those whom we elected got outsmarted and allowed them to ruin the Constitution.  Some of you don't go with this amendment strategy because you think they'll outsmart us and ruin the Constitution.  So then, where do we go from here to keep them from ruining the Constitution?

Before we run off into a bunch of speculation about the issue, perhaps it would be good to hear it from Levin himself.  He recently spoke to Sean Hannity about it in this two-parter.    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAluXIrsogU   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAb60gBc-iw

  And just how long will it be before they remove 2A while we sit and wonder what happened to our freedoms?  How's that "no taxation without representation" thing working out for us?  Are Alexander, Corker and your congressman doing a peachy keen job telling these tyrants to cease and desist?  Maybe in front of the cameras.  Hell's bells, before we're forced to tattoo numbers into our arms, why not get behind some leaders who are fed up to here with these socialist bastards and fight them with the last legal stopgap provision we have before the fat lady sings?

Is anybody getting pumped about calling for a States' Constitutional Amendment Convention to defang our runaway government?  It is in the power of the states through Article 5 to change the Constitution through a states-initiated amendment process, including term limits for Congress and the Supreme Court.  Mark Levin has been voicing this clarion call for the people to petition their state legislatures to get the ball rolling.    http://www.humanevents.com/2013/08/15/mark-levins-liberty-amendments/   Here's a rallying point:  http://conventionofstates.com/

Well, how did the first day go?

For his domestic army.....unless, of course, you're the kind of patriot he fears. Here's a very revealing video of a retired Marine colonel who explains why the cities are amassing armored vehicles and other military equipment.   http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/08/15/is-everybody-blind-city-council-meeting-erupts-in-applause-after-ex-marine-issues-dire-warning-about-u-s-building-a-domestic-army/

I can't speak for the Baby Desert Eagle in the .45 flavor, but my all-steel 9mm is the closest thing to a bull-o-matic I've ever owned.  It's problem free and shoots like a dream.

I remember when Saturday morning cartoons were funny.

In The Big Red One, Lee Marvin turns in a terrific performance as a sergeant who is fighting his second world war.  It's another Samuel Fuller movie, the same guy who made Steel Helmet and Fixed Bayonets.  Mark Hamil plays a Luke Skywalker character again, this time in a military uniform and First Infantry Division patch.

Maybe the sword is mightier than the pen after all.   http://michellemalkin.com/2013/08/10/backfire-editor-of-ny-paper-that-published-map-of-gun-owners-gets-canned/

David, I'm looking for some AA #7, Blue Dot or Longshot.  I haven't quite made up my mind, but whatever you got I'll take that.

(10) Your annual breast exam is done at Hooters. (9) Directions to your doctor's office include "Take a left after you enter the trailer park." (8) The tongue depressors taste faintly of Popsicles. (7) The only proctologist in the plan is "Gus" from Roto-Rooter. (6) The only item listed under Preventative Care Coverage is "an apple a day." (5) Your primary care physician is wearing the pants you gave to Goodwill. (4) You pass your annual physical if you can walk without passing out. (3) The only expense covered 100% is "Embalming." (2) Your prescription comes in different colors with little M's on them. AND THE NUMBER ONE SIGN YOU'VE JOINED OBAMA'S HEALTH CARE PLAN: (1) You ask for Viagra, and they give you a dowel rod and duct tape.

I remember back in '92 that one of H. Ross Perot's sticking points was, "These politicians call themselves public servants.  How many servants do you have that ride to work in limousines and have a better retirement package than you?"   This is like a woman giving birth.....when the time comes, the water breaks and you have a bigger mess than before.  I wonder what will bust the bubble.
