Yeah, we know he gets info from shady sources, like those that count gang-banger teenagers as "children". But when I consider the implication of G1's numbers, that all those regrettable deaths, a lot of them suicides, only happened because a gun was available....

Brady Law Has Done Little To Keep Guns Out Of Criminals' Hands - IBD

The description by the Capitol newspaper The Hill was typical: "The Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, which took effect 20 years ago Friday, has blocked more than 2 million firearm sales, preventing 'countless' killings and other crimes, gun control advocates said at an event to mark the anniversary ... ."

On Friday, the Brady Campaign claimed that half those blocked from purchasing a gun — over 1 million — were felons.

Impressive numbers. But, alas, both are gross exaggerations.

In reality, the "Brady Checks" are quite ineffective in stopping criminals from getting guns. There are actually very few hard-core criminals that are stupid enough to even try to buy a gun from a dealer that does a background check.

The media don't understand what they are reporting. Getting denied by a Brady check is not the same thing as saying that the person is a prohibited person. The correct terminology here is that there have been more than 2 million "initial denials."

Take the numbers from 2010, the last year the full National Instant Criminal Background Check System report was produced (the Obama administration has stopped releasing this detailed report).

So let us look at these numbers, a relatively typical year. Out of the 76,142 initial denials in the federal system only 44 individuals were prosecuted and only 13 were convicted of illegally trying to purchase a gun when they were prohibited from doing so.

As if that wasn't bad enough, those convicted were hardly what one would call dangerous criminals — usually people with relatively trivial records from years earlier that didn't realize their offense was covered.

Criminologist: 'More Youngsters Killed in Bicycle Accidents' Than with Guns

Responding to a recent report that Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America (MDA) and Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG) conducted about the dangers of guns in public schools, Northeastern University criminologist James Alan Fox said the annual risk of gun-related death in school is "well below one in two million," and "many times more youngsters are killed annually in bicycle accidents."

I use it when I take friends to the range, they can self-diagnose. Since I added the laser to my Glock, I've changed how I site. It helped me out.

You act as if that moron George Zimmerman is innocent. He was a lunatic that really has no right to be carrying his gun. While I agree with the verdict (based on law), this tragedy could have been avoided by cooler heads. Irrational people that make poor decisions shouldn't be carrying guns.

They know the uniform can make them a target and are aware of their surroundings through necessity and training. Most of the time when going after a known dangerous person the cops have numbers on their side. Also cops are always armed, most are expert marksmen, and constantly practice shooting. 2013 cops killed by gunfire 33. An extremely low number more people died jumping off the Golden Gate bridge (46) in 2013. So you can pick almost any other means of death and that will be higher than cops killed in the line of duty. Nationwide Children's Hospital
says choking is the leading cause of death for young children, we would save more preschoolers by wiring their jaws shut and I.V. feeding them than removing every single gun from the USA.

There's the problem with the anti-gun crowd. You feel that you, or at least the Government has the authority to judge who has the "right" and who should be denied their Constitutional rights and it doesn't end at the 2nd Amendment, you can so casually deny the 1st Amendment right to those you do not agree with. Don't agree? I bet you'd shut down every Tea Party rally in a second if you could. You spewed some hatred about them earlier actually.


Fact was that Zimmerman was assaulted and he defended himself. Was he a completely, 100% sane person? Who knows except God. He saw a young thug peeking into windows and tried to help his neighbors. Should he have left it up to the cops? Yes, probably, but you do not know him well enough to say that the Constitution doesn't apply to him. There was a big effort by the media and the President himself to paint Zimmerman, who was also a victim of a crime as a madman just because they were able to politically capitalize on the death of a black kid. Besides, if the President had a son, he's look like Travon, but he wouldn't be allowed to play football. I heard the President STILL using that kid's name last week in a speech.


Should we try to prevent legitimate mentally-ill people from having firearms, absolutely! That's the Sandy Hook shooter right there, he was mental...not an NRA member like Giantone likes to pretend. But, we do not want the Government ever being the judge and jury on illness, ask Jews in Germany how that power ends up.


Next time your head is being slammed into the concrete sidewalk by a 6-foot tall teenager in a hoodie who is taller than you are, I hope you have the chance to defend yourself too.
