Lewis Elementary School officials have banned students from playing "cops and robbers" on school grounds.
The temporary ban was set on the game, in which kids shape imaginary guns out of their fingers and pretend to be officers of the law and criminals, while school officials decide whether it is dangerous. |

"In the war on terrorism, journalists are often targets of the enemy. Should they arm themselves when they're in the field?"
"THE COMMITTEE TO PROTECT JOURNALISTS" reports that "most journalists who die in war zones are murdered." That is, they don't die from playing hopscotch through a mine field or getting dinged by a stray bullet, but are deliberately targeted and killed.

On the word of a "reliable informant" several Montana residents were arrested on Wednesday, February 27th. At the time of arrest, County Sheriff Jim Dupont was "pretty sure they were planning on assassinating as many cops and public officials as possible". His evidence aside from the informant was that Dave Burgert had an arsenal of weapons and had looked into the backgrounds of many public officials.
The last I heard, the possession of firearms, survival equipment, body armor, or bomb making equipment (whatever that means) was still legal. |

"A U.S. Army or Marine Corps infantry company commander stands in front of his men and recommends that they no longer use M-16 rifles or other small arms in combat situations because their weapons can be taken away by the enemy and used against them. Instead, he recommends using car keys, which can be effective in close quarters combat when properly trained."

New legislation in the U.S. House by Rep. John Peterson (R:PA) would discourage "land grabs" by the federal government.
The 'Good Neighbor Act' would affect counties where more than 50% of the land is already owned by a federal governmental agency. In order to buy more land, the government would have to sell a piece of land worth at least 97% of the fair market value of the land to be acquired. |

A former police officer, McInnis named four of the seven workers involved in the case, expressing outrage over their actions. "They planted evidence, just like a bad cop goes into a house and plants drugs," he told the House. |

We had a militia drill the other day. One of its purposes was to give Kentucky State Militia some good PR after all the propaganda that’s been thrown at us in the last year or so. The "reporter" and cameraman were seen smiling those knowing smiles. It was between "These guys are a bunch of losers" or "This is a dog and pony show." [...] My only question...is:
When is your next militia meeting and how are you going to train and what will you do to show the American Communist Insurgency that its days are numbered here? |

Forest Service officials knowingly used faulty data of spotted owl habitat to block logging in a California forest, according to court documents obtained by The Washington Times.
The Forest Service did not have a "rational basis" for halting the timber sale to Wetsel-Oviatt Lumber Company, said the previously undisclosed ruling by Federal Claims Court Judge Lawrence S. Margolis.
The timber company's lawyer, Gary Stevens, called the Forest Service data "junk science." |

All along the main street in this dusty, one-horse town, dozens of weapons stores are lined with floor-to-ceiling replicas of Russian, Chinese and American arms.
Turbaned men, rifles slung over their shoulders, stroll casually past dirty-faced boys hunched over grinding wheels -- all seemingly oblivious to a "government ban on public display of weapons." |

The order from an FBI commander to a SWAT team waiting outside a Glen Burnie 7-Eleven was simple and direct.
"Follow the red car."
To FBI Special Agent Christopher Braga, it signaled that the man inside the car, the one wearing the white baseball cap, was the bank robbery suspect agents had been tracking. Braga, with other members of the elite FBI team, moved in to make the arrest.

Law enforcement officers perform a dangerous and sometimes deadly job, and they rarely get the recognition, attention and praise they deserve. Their good deeds too often go unnoticed and unappreciated until someone needs their immeasurable service. That's why we want to commend the Pensacola Police Department for its efforts to make gun ownership "safer" by giving out 1,000 gun locks "free" to the public.

The board of aldermen today finalized a proposal that would make it illegal to sell BB guns to anyone under 21.
“This is not your daisy bb gun that you buy in boys life. This is a powerful instrument. It's got a tremendous amount of pressure. If this were to be used to fire a BB into someone's head or throat it would most likely kill them,” said Ald. Jim Shrewsbury, Board of Aldermen President. |

Should the bill, sponsored by Republican Rep. James Aslanides of Coshocton, make it through the Senate, it still faces opposition from Gov. Bob Taft. He will not sign a bill that is opposed by major law enforcement groups, such as the Ohio Association of Chiefs of Police, the State Highway Patrol and the state's biggest police union, the Fraternal Order of Police.
All the groups remain opposed to the bill.

Some successful summer camps stress youth activism as a way of promoting the liberal agenda. On the other end of the spectrum, some camps base their programs on conservative ideals and principles. |

"Whoa! Hold on there a minute! Why are you treating me as if I were a criminal? I have done nothing to deserve this hostility and treatment.
Seems like these are common words, or at least thoughts in the minds of citizens across this Nation since September 11, 2001. We, you and I, law-abiding citizens, have found ourselves reduced to the lowest common denominator. We are all dumped into that litter box once reserved for criminals and terrorists." |

"You are infringing on the rights of the unarmed people of the US to live a peaceful existence without fear of being gunned down by a citizen carrying a concealed weapon. You are interfering with their right to openly express their frustration if they feel so inclined. Always in their minds is the thought, 'He might have a gun'!"
