Bodyguard Killed
Russia's most famous - and glamorous - female bodyguard killed as her Porsche is carjacked in Moscow
"In contrast, you can take female bodyguards inside, she will sit down at the table and nobody would guess that she's a weapon herself - and can react appropriately in any dangerous situation."

"This could put us in violation of Federal OSHA laws," Bingham said. "We are liable to provide a safe work place."

The debate is in Utah over allowing licensed CCW'ers to keep their guns in their cars while at work. Tom Bingham, president of the Utah Manufacturers thinks this is not a good idea, & makes the above statement. So Mr Bingham, if you take away, or deny their ability to protect themselves, at work or on their way to or from work, you should be liable, for failing to provide a safe venue, not only at the work place but from the time they leave home till they return, & any stops along the way.

In the end, a finding of a strong, individual Second Amendment right is the correct decision, because a weak right would render the amendment's protections meaningless. Just as the Bill of Rights assures that the government will not restrict an individual's speech or invade an individual's home in all but the most serious situations, it also forbids the government from restricting gun ownership in most instances.

Civil Disobedience
The Bush Administration does not want convicted felons to to lawfully own firearms. What if the convicted felon's only crime was the civil disobedience of an anti-Constitutional, anti-gun law?
There are thousands of anti-gun laws on the books, many of which have no relevance or influence on criminal behavior. Some of which are considered a felony if violated. The laws vary depending on your geographic location and there are laws at the city, county, state, and federal level, making it confusing for gun owners and law enforcement in some areas.
There really are a lot of felonies that have nothing to do with violent crime, if you mother puts her RX drugs in one of those monday-sunday pill boxes she has commited a felony, under federal law. If caught charged & convicted, she could never own a gun to protect herself

The Rotti
We brought her home 3 years ago, she was 12 & a victim of neglect, she only weighed about 50 pounds. Some how through over a year of neglect & starvation she had not lost herself, she still lived up to her name. Babie was indeed one very big loving baby, very gentle, & loved to be close to people, sometimes a bit demanding in the petting department.
She did have food issues, & although she got along ok with the feline members of the family, she didn't like them around her food. She had spent her whole life in the city, but she took to country living well, she enjoyed visiting our neighbor, but she would not cross the field, she always went down the driveway, & down the road to his house.
As sweet as she was, she was also protective, when anyone uninvited came to the door she would hit it like a ton of bricks, of course she was nearing a ton as it were.
She had trouble with her hips last winter, but once we got her up, & she would teeter totter out the door, but come running back in like a pup, I often wondered if it was the same dog.
But this year was different, she fell down last Friday, & she never got up.
Last night we got her outside, & I took care of her, so she will not suffer. I fulfilled my side of the bargain, we make in our partnership with them. She will be missed, & I'm glad we were able to provide comfort, food, & love for the Babie in her final years.

Just an odd fact
— The English Army had approximately 5,000 archers at Agincourt, and a stock of about 400,000 arrows
— With each archer capable of shooting about ten arrows a minute, the ammunition would last only about eight minutes. However, such firepower would have been devastating. More than 800 arrows a second would have rained on the French cavalry, killing or wounding hundreds

"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion... what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time that his people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.... The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."--THOMAS JEFFERSON
are we overdue?

Checkmate, Game Over
Reclusive chess master Bobby Fischer has died at the age of 64.

Fischer fell foul of U.S. authorities by playing a match against Spassky in Yugoslavia in 1992, at a time when the country was the target of sanctions during Belgrade's war with breakaway republics.
He vanished after the match, for which he won $3 million, and resurfaced only after the September 11, 2001, attacks in the United States. In an interview with a Philippine radio station, Fischer praised the strikes and said he wanted to see America "wiped out."

The idea of limited government is what America was founded on.
The founders set up a system whereby the government was the servant of the people.
The intent was that laws would be limited to those that outlawed that which caused injury to another.

”A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.” - Thomas Jefferson

Although autopsies are incomplete, the medical examiner's office reported that there was evidence that Brittany had been stabbed, the charging documents state.

Why weren't there background checks!!
SAN FRANCISCO (Map, News) - Despite defense claims made on Monday that many of the victims in a 2006 hit-and-run rampage were “merely grazed or clipped,” a San Francisco judge said there was enough evidence to convict Omeed Popal of 16 counts of premeditated attempted murder, among other charges.
http://www.examiner.com/a-1144294~Judge__Evidence_against_Popal_strong.html
Licensing is not working, there need to be more controls & background checks, we need reasonable car control laws. We have to stop the sale of deadly assault vehicles, from the article
"including 16 counts of attempted murder, 16 counts of assault with a deadly weapon, one count of battery on a peace officer, one count of assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer"
This is not your grandfathers Model T, this is a modern assault vehicle!

email from a friend:
This is the law: The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important than the shield and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental. As John Steinbeck once said :
1. Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
2. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
3. I carry a gun cause a cop is too heavy.
4. America is not at war. The U.S. Military is at war. America is at the Mall.
5. When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away. (but shoot first anyway, then call 911)
6. A reporter did a human interest piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and asked him 'Why do you carry a 45?'. The Ranger responded with, 'Because they don't make a 46.'
7. An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity.
8. The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a lady commented on his wearing his sidearm. 'Sheriff, I see you have your pistol. Are you expecting trouble?' 'NO Ma'am. If I were expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle.' (Winchester Model 94 30-30 Cal. and loaded with Winchester Silver Tips, no doubt).
9. Beware the man who only has one gun. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT!!!
AMEN!
To this I will add this comment: I was once asked by a lady visiting if I had a gun in the house, to which I said I did. She said 'well I certainly hope it isn't loaded!', to which I said, 'of course it is loaded.' She then asked, 'Are you that afraid of someone evil coming into your house?'. My reply was,'No not at all. I am not afraid of the house catching on fire either, but I have fire extinguishers around, and THEY ARE ALL LOADED.'

Gee maybe he didn't know those devices were illegal, maybe a "NO BOMB" sign would help, perhaps there should be a Ban on these things, we need some kind of controls, on Grenades, oh right we already do, so this story must be fiction.

"What Fred Thompson Hasn't Done"
By Chris Davis
It’s apparent that Senator Thompson has chosen to side with the rights of the private citizens to keep and bear arms, when he could’ve ignored the Second Amendment to the Constitution.

Might as well scrap this one too
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
With all the drug trade, child porn, etc.. we might as well dump the 4th amendment, while we are busy scrapping the 2nd. I'm sure Lee Gaillard has nothing to hide, so why would he mind if the police, just showed up & searched his home, I mean after all if it saves just one child, why would he have a problem with it? By opening our doors & allowing the police & federal government to search without a warrant, we could reduce a lot of crime, besides whats does an honest man have to hide?
Amendment VII
In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.Amendment VII
In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.
This one can hit the ash can to, I mean why should we be able to go to trial over $20?
$20 was a lot of money in 1781, but today, come on give me a break!
I'm sure we can get rid of a few more, if they displease us.
Public safety trumps outdated, irrelevant Second Amendment
If we are going to start playing with The Bill of Rights, hey we might as well clean house!

From Iowa:
"Fred Thompson stands for what Republicans believe in: lower taxes, limited government, the defense of the unborn, a secure border, the right to keep & bear arms, an immigration policy that respects the rule of law, and an unwavering commitment to the national security of the United States of America. At every point of his life, Fred Thompson has risen to the challenge and answered America’s call. He’s ready to answer the call to service again, and he can win in November against the Democratic nominee. "

Antonio Nunes, president of Portugal's food standards agency, was photographed by the daily Diario de Noticias smoking a cigar at a casino on the outskirts of Lisbon.

Rules that apply to the general public, do not apply to them, remember that was not what made the US different, something about all men were created equal?
