Politics!
Always under construction.

PLEASE HELP TO DEFEAT SENATE CANDIDATE HARRY REID IN ANY WAY YOU CAN!

HARRY is NOT a friend to gun owners, our constitution, our republic, or individual freedom. 

To write the full details of Harry's dirty deeds, socialist agenda, and two-faced activity would require a thick book. 

I personally "Fact Checked" his claim to having saved 22,000 jobs at "City Center" in  Las Vegas. As usual Harry is being misleading. The truth is that "City Center" only employs 12,000 people currently. The claimed "22,000 jobs saved" were temporary, existing only during construction. This is typical of his boasting, no doubt every other one of his claims is similarly skewed, NOT an actual fact!  

UPDATE! On 8/5/10 Harry Reid shepherded the confirmation of anti-gun rights zealot Elena Kegan throught the senate to confrmation as the newest member of the Supreme Court of the U.S. 
This confirms that Harry Reid's agenda is far more important to him than the security of our republic or liberties.

Sharron Angle may not be "Perfect", but she is certainly FAR better than liar Harry Reid! 

___________________________________________

At this point the only thing I want to hear from all political candidates is their list!

Their list of laws, regulations, and taxes they intend to work on repealing, which agencies they will attempt to eliminate.

Any candidate, of any party, attempting to get my vote by promoting any additional laws, is a fool.

This is true for all levels of government, from the Fed. to the town board.

We have millions of laws on the books now, we have over 250,000 laws on"Gun Control" alone!
Most laws are unnecessary, redundant, and are not regularly enforced. Thousands of them are virtually unknown to the general public, many are clearly abused to target groups or individuals through selective enforcement. 

We will never be able to reduce the size and expense of government while continuing to create additional laws and related enforcement agencies!

"I think we have more machinery of government than is necessary, too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious." --Thomas Jefferson

"... laws were most numerous when the commonwealth was most corrupt." -- Tacitus, Annals 3.27

"When law and morality contradict each other, the citizen has the cruel alternative of either losing his moral sense or losing his respect for the law.  --Frederic Bastiat

The only civil word I can find to describe the recent "Stimulus" laws is "Feculent"!
Same for the "Bail-Out" debt added to our future generations, and fascist takeover of American business.

The proper description of the oncoming "Universal Health Care" bill can be summed up in one word, EUGENICS!
Look at the history of Eugenics, look at the details of this bill!
It should make you shudder, and fight to prevent it's taking effect.

I feel compelled to post this page in an effort to preserve our constitution and country.

I started work on this Political Blog section in response to the sad current state of American politics and the supreme court's incredible McCain-Fiengold ruling.
That alleged "law" and the ruling upholding it, essentially attempted to repeal our first amendment rights in preparation for destroying the Second Amendment.
The content of my politics pages are likely to offend almost everyone on some point or another, this is my fair warning, if you are overly partisan or sensitive please just view our product pages.
 
I realize that some people may not agree with my view on some issues, and I tend to be plain spoken.
The views expressed here are my own, views expressed on linked sites are beyond my control.
I have decided that I cannot allow my voice to be suppressed for fear of "offending" some one, that would be too much like surrendering to the "PC" extortionist I intend to oppose at every opportunity!

The supreme court ruling upholding the "McCain-Fiengold campaign finance reform act" essentially repealed our "First Amendment" right to free speech.
Candidates and the fifth columnist media retain the ability to say whatever they like, but individuals and pro-gun advocacy groups may no longer buy media time or space to report on candidates positions or voting records regarding the second amendment within sixty days of an election!

Political activism on an individual level has now become more important than ever if we are to retain any ability to influence our elections and resulting legislation.

Seditionist enemies of a strong America have been targeting gun ownership in congress since 1933.
There has long been a rumor of a "One hundred year plan" to deprive us of our right to arms.
Major infringements of the second amendment were passed at the federal level in 1934, 1968, 1986, and 1994.
It has been a little over ten years since the anti-gun rights hate groups achieved their most recent successes.
Two of these flagrant constitutional violations, the "Assault Weapon" and "High Capacity Magazine" bans finally "sunset" after ten years!
The "sunset" provision was a bargaining chip to persuade fence sitters to vote for their passage, after six failed prior attempts.

The "Bans" automatically expired September, 13 of 2004!
HOORAY FOR OUR REGAINING A SMALL MEASURE OF OUR FREEDOM!

But we must remain vigilant to ensure that congress never passes new legislation to reinstate them!


These unconstitutional outrages have been allowed to stand by the courts, and a congress that has forsaken it's oath of office.
Now the traitorous personalities responsible for them feel confident enough to openly attack the first amendment!


I will try to list contact information for congress, particularly for Nevada.
I will try to list pro-gun bills to be supported, and anti constitution bills to be fought.
I will try to list links for pro-gun sites, and solid suggestions for supporting bills and candidates.
When the opportunity arises I will list candidates who support the constitution, and examples of liars trying to claim they support our rights when in fact they do not.
Many other sites will list at least some of this information, but too often they "pick & choose" what information they display with an eye to remaining "politically correct", or "mainstream".
This attitude plays into the hands of the Seditionist, it assumes that it is possible to compromise with the extremist seeking to deprive us of our rights.
It is impossible to maintain a fair bargain with irrational people.
Each "compromise" we make will only be followed by more demands from the anti's, until we have "compromised" all of our rights away, one "law" at a time!

I will list information based on it's intent, without undue regard for weather or not it is "politically correct" or considered "Do-Able" by the self appointed arbiters of the pro-gun rights community.

Why did gun owners abandon the republican party this last election?
Because they began acting like liberals!

Spending skyrocketed, bureaucracy increased, inane legislation was passed, true reform did not.

They made no real effort to get these RKBA bills reintroduced or out of committee and passed.
Each was an excellent bill, with strong long term benefits for our gun rights.

 The Veterans Firearms Heritage Act bill is now H.R. 442. 
It is once again stuck in committee despite having several co-sponsors!

H.R. 1791, Fairness in Firearm Testing Act.

H.R. ????,
Second Amendment Protection Act of 2007

Full details on these bills can be found at http://www.nfaoa.org


'08 election results, my take.

I was disgusted by the lousy final pair of presidential candidates of both parties, no matter who won, America lost.

The new "president" gives me chill's, a socialist with Stalinist tendencies.

I think that in this election the races for congress were clearly more important than the presidential race.

Sadly, we did not do well there either, it is going to be a long and probably painful next four years.

It has become clear that we will need all genuine conservatives to stand up proudly in order to limit the damage originating from the White House!

It is late 2010, we have to remake congress this November, we must identify and support worthy candidates NOW!

We have to limit O's ability to continue dictating socialist law to only the next few months. 
Beware the coming "Lame Duck" session as congress attempts to delay their most odious acts until after the election!

A few pro-RKBA bills have been introduced in this session of congress, but even if they miraculously passed, I am sure "O" would veto them.

Nevada legislature.

BEWARE! A bill draft request has been submitted, again, to make failure to wear a seat-belt a primary offense in 2011.

The good news is that Bernie Anderson (D-Sparks) will NOT be back in 2011, he is term limited out!

One new tax that really offends me is SB394, off-road vehicle registration!
The legislature did not even pretend that it has any value to the users of our public lands. The money goes strait into the general slush fund.

At the proposed $20 the DMV/OHV dealers will say they are not covering cost, the fee will soon increase to a probable $50.

Then the state will decide they need to hire lots of off-road cops to issue citations for failure to register, with large fines to make the program profitable.
You can be certain that the funds collected will be used to post additional "No OHV's" signs so that MORE citations can be added while pleasing the eco-nuts.
The funds collected are entirely for purposes unrelated to "off-road" recreation, more taxation without benefit to those paying them!
The "republican" (RINO!) who authored this Kalifornia style rip-off missed the memo that states Republicans are AGAINST additional taxes and FOR less government!

If you live in or visit Nevada please send a letter, Fax, or e-mail to your reps or our tourism officials, demanding repeal of this tax hike.

John Ensign personally assured me that he was committed to ending the "Assault Weapon" and "High-Capacity" Magazine" bans! Those bans DID end, with his help.

Senator Harry Reid (D) NV.

Please do anything you can to ensure his defeat in this election!

What kind of senator is Harry Reid, how does he truly think of gun owners?
Perhaps the following transcript of a campaign spot he ran during his campaign against John Ensign will illustrate how he really feels about gun owners, and NRA members in particular! 

“Stand Up”
Harry Reid Radio Spot :60

Comedienne: Thank You.  Thank You, Folks.  You know me, John Ensign’s worst nightmare. (Laughs)

People ask me if I make up these Ensign quotes.  I tell them, I'm not that funny. (Laughs)

Okay, before I begin, do we have any crazed and violent criminals in the audience? (Claps)

Yeah, Yeah, Okay, Well, I've got great news for you, John Ensign thinks the assault weapons ban is a stupid and ineffective law. (Boos)

And you thought Charleton Heston was your only friend. (Claps)

When John Ensign was asked what was in a piece of legislation he was working on, he said, “I don't know, I don't read the bills.” 
Maybe he'd prefer Shakespeare. (Laughs)

But let's not be too hard on Ensign.  I mean he did say he gave up millions of dollars to run for Congress. 
I guess he used to get a big, fat allowance to manage his father's gambling casinos.  (Laughs)

“Thank you, Folks.  You've been a great audience.” (Claps)

Harry Reid would like gun owners to think he really supports us, he clearly does not, except when he is running for reelection!

Court cases important to the second amendment.

Details on the "Stuart Ruling", which may actually restore some integrity to the "Interstate Commerce Clause". The ICC has been abused as an unconstitutional power grab by congress and the Fed. Gov. for many years. If the ruling stands it may have great implications for our gun and state rights.
UPDATE! The case was remanded back to the Ninth Circuit for re-hearing and the issuing of the "Correct" opinion. 

SCOTUS continues it's long record of cowardice regards our RKBA.
