Klingons on Ice

The oppressor-state we find ourselves living in today is founded on lies: the lie that people are incompetent to feed and clothe and house and transport themselves without increasingly intrusive and abusive government supervision; the lie that they can't even be trusted to defend themselves physically, but must be watched over by masked baby-killers in black Kevlar, wielding submachineguns. A lot of time and effort is expended to maintain these lies and countless thousands more like them.

Louisiana has been working for two years to improve its records system to keep firearms out of the hands of the wrong people, a state police official said.

Capt. Mike Edmonson, in an interview, said the new $5 million automated record system will be operational by this summer.

KABA NOTE: Why are all these officials working so hard to "prove" themselves to AGS? Who cares what they think anyway?

Col. Evanko said, "AGSF acknowledges that there are no cases of ineligible persons obtaining approvals to buy firearms in Pennsylvania, and it admits that we are one of only 18 states that have closed the so-called gun show loophole. Based on those facts alone, I think it's clear that Pennsylvania should get an 'A' for its efforts."

Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will pay off his bet Saturday with Gov. Frank Keating for his state university football team's Cotton Bowl loss to the Oklahoma Sooners.

The governors wagered hunting trips on the outcome of the Jan. 1 football game in Dallas between OU and the University of Arkansas.

Because OU beat Arkansas 10-3, Huckabee must treat Keating to a duck hunt near Weiner, Ark., in the northeastern part of the state.

A study of background checks alleges hundreds of Kansans bought guns illegally. Not so, ATF and KBI agents say.

First, let me make clear that I am not referring to a hysterectomy, or removal of the uterus, but a historectomy, or removal of our history. Contrast my upbringing with what today's kids are exposed to:...

the last generation of Americans has been taught little of the foundations of their country. And what they were taught was often negative. What they saw in movies only served to strengthen this negative impression.

Hairs from a grizzly bear rug were sought legitimately as part of a control sample study of the rare creatures along the Canadian border, officials leading the survey said.

WA: High time to close "gun-show loophole"
Submitted by: Doug Charette

Every year, gun dealers peddle their wares at an estimated 60 gun shows in Washington — bazaars that sometimes provide easy one-stop shopping for people who should not have access to guns.

"Law-abiding citizens buy from licensed dealers who conduct background checks." But criminals, wife beaters and the mentally unstable may be drawn to tables at the same gun shows marked "private sale." A legal loophole allows unlicensed, private sellers to sell without background checks.

Gun-control groups are drawing a bead on Gov. Bill Owens' call for a statewide standard for issuing concealed weapons permits, saying it will "put more firearms in the wrong hands."

Currently a police chief or sheriff can set his or her own criteria for issuing the permits. Some do so freely. In other jurisdictions, it's almost impossible to get a permit.

The hills north of Sultan could echo with the sound of rifle shots if a proposal to build a county gun range there gets the nod.

But turning the newly released proposal into reality would require the support of Snohomish County politicians and $2.7 to $4 million in funding at a time when county budgets are growing tight.

The National I.D. is being imposed upon the American people through State Drivers License protocols.

In my first technology video entitled “Iridium”, I showed the text of the 1996 Immigration Reform bill that required that all states implement “protocols” in their State Drivers Licenses (uniform criteria) that would create a de facto National ID by October 1st of the year 2000. Due to the diligence of patriots and Christians who recognized this ploy for what it clearly was...

If you're driving a big truck with more than two axles, or more than four tires even, on the part of Highway 110 that runs alongside the Pentagon, don't even think about suddenly veering off toward the nation's military headquarters. If you do, you will more than likely be mowed down by two M-60, 7.62-caliber machine guns mounted atop Humvees posted along the highway approaches.

A man accused of shooting two people to death outside a Lancaster city nightclub on Dec. 23 was able to buy a handgun hours before the slayings, despite being wanted for a 1999 killing in New York City.

KABA NOTE: Like we've always said, the NICS was just a feel-good law to postpone anti-gunners' from saying what they are saying now. NICS never prevented any criminal from buying a gun.

"The continued attack on private sales at gun shows is likely to be the hardest push coming from gun control forces both in and out of Congress," Pratt said. "They put their heads together after September 11 and decided that, even though guns weren't used in the biggest mass murder in American history, they would go ahead and try to link terrorism to gun shows."

--A lot of powerful democrats that would like to see the Second Amendment reepealed and the private ownership of firearms outlawed.

South Carolina received a near-failing grade Wednesday for its system of background checks that let 305 felons and others illegally buy firearms during a 30-month period, according to a report by a gun control advocacy group.

But one of South Carolina's top law enforcement officers said the report is false and defended the state's procedure of doing background checks on gun buyers.

KABA NOTE: You bet it's false! The state hasn't done background checks for gun sales for over a year now. Dealers call in direct to the FBI/ATF.
