A child with a toy gun. A girl with a nail file. A grandmother with a knitting needle. All innocent enough -- except at an airport, where all three items would likely be confiscated by airport security.
Baggage screeners have even swiped Nerf toys that fire sponge balls and disks, because in a dark cabin one could appear to be a weapon. |

In a scuffle, both burglars were shot by the tenant, who was returning from an afternoon of skeet-shooting. |

"We the People don’t protest, don’t even notice any incongruity, when we’re assured that this rank elitism is "democracy" and "self-government."...
"An emergency results from the government’s abuse of its powers, so the government claims new powers in order to cope with the emergency. And if you don’t support these claims, you’re unpatriotic; if you think the government’s foreign policy helped create this mess, you’re "blaming America first." Joe Sobran |

Dramatic Increases in Gun-Safety courses and Ammo
Boston Globe online front page: "If a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged, a similar attitude adjustment could be boosting the size and changing the face of the region's gun-toting population."
Mostly good news, until this little tidbit at the end: "We have one of the toughest gun laws in the country," Goggin said. "Once folks look a little further into having a gun in Massachusetts, a lot of them are reconsidering their decision to buy." |

"The Patriot Bill expands the definition of "domestic terrorist" so much that it includes virtually all of us. H.R.3162 defines as a domestic terrorist anyone who appears to intend to change government policy through intimidation (and intimidation is not defined, so the term easily could be used in court to include protest activities the Constitution was intended to protect)..."

"Bush's new transportation safety undersecretary will quickly learn that no one ever gets fired from a government job -- unless, of course, he or she blows the whistle on corruption, bribery or abuse. Look no further than the Immigration and Naturalization Service for a glimpse of how the feds really handle bad workers who endanger the public and undermine the law." Michelle Malkin |

House and Senate negotiators, now hammering out education-reform legislation, are clarifying a troubling legal ambiguity regarding gun laws and home schools, one that could land gun owners in big trouble if any of their neighbors are home schoolers.
The federal Gun-Free Schools Amendment, passed in 1996, requires substantial penalties for anyone who brings a firearm within 1,000 feet of a public or private school ...and... 13 states consider home schools to be "private schools." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
