Saying an AR-15 is the "same thing" as an M-4 Carbine is just like saying a Nascar racecar is "just like" a stock Toyota Camry! I don't know how to find the statistics, but I'd bet that THOUSANDS of people have been hurt or killed in crashes involving Camry's... where's the uproar?!

Well kind of

 

The Stoner design for the AR-15 was select fire the AR-10 results being to hard to handle on FA encouraged a smaller round.

Heh like that was news at the time any grunt with a M-14 could tell ya that, dont go FA.

 

So it is more like a Hemi Cuda vs a 340 Six-pack Cuda, both temperamental one just faster.

Daniel Defense severs their relationship with Academy Sports.

 

 

 

Daniel Defense clearly is going to lose money by pulling their product line from a store that had more than 200 locations in 15 states, but their decision was clearly the right one.

 

No they won't.  They'll sell even more rifles.  If I was thinking about another AR I would give that business to DD.

And now the media/democraps have found themselves a liberal veteran puppet to mouth the gun grabbers agenda.

 

Look, he's a VETERAN and HE says "assault weapons" don't belong in civilian hands and they should be BANNED.

 

OK so out of millions of veterans they managed to find one or a few who are on the left. Somehow the opinion of that 1% (assuming they're even vets) is valid but the solid support for freedom from the 99% of veterans is irrelevant.

 

Gawd I hate the lying snakes in the media/left.

...just the acceleration issues. Don't forget frame rot causing the spare to fall to the ground, Prius battery fires, etc. Toyota has DEEP pockets so all of this just disappears.

I hope people will remember this before they give up any freedoms, or rights, or type of gun "for the greater good" it's from a speech by Martin Niemoller:

 

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

 

There are variations of it too, but it runs in my head when I hear or read where some gun owners says we don't need to own assault weapons or hi-cap magazines because a bolt action .243 meets all their needs. People fail to understand the gun grabbers are playing the long game taking them down one by one.

That can't be real.  The only veterans who would use an AR are remfs, office pogues, cooks, and truck drivers.  Real warfighters would NEVER use an AR. 

 

Or so we've been told...

 

Seriously though, I think we can stop the bans in congress but I'm afraid the doper dictator will just do it with his pen.  And the congress won't have the balls to step up and stop it.  And the scrotus will declare it constitutional.

 

As of today, the 3 branches of government are the dictator branch, the coward branch, and the enabler branch.  The dictator does what he wants, the cowards wring their hands, and the black robed enablers rubber stamp it.

They intend to submit to whatever power the state imposes upon them, because in their mind (the progressive mind) the committee has superior intelligence to the individual and this makes any decision made by the committee not only the right one, but the moral one.

So should the committee decide they should die, it's the right choice, but if course a committee or marjoity could never become corrupt, so that could never happen.

So now their latest cheap-shot tactic... it's not "for the children" or "common-sense" ... it's for National Security!!

 

You MUST approve all these anti-gun measures for National Security!! If you don't approve these measures you are against National Security!!

 

MY Nation will be far more SECURE the day AFTER all you Liberal idiots are OUT of office and positions of power!  :angry:

There is another box.  And that box is exactly what gun control has always been about.

We Don’t Have a Gun Problem. We Have a Islamic Terrorist Democrat Problem

http://bearingarms.com/bob-o/2016/06/22/dont-gun-problem-islamic-terrorist-democrat-problem/?utm_source=badaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl

 

 

According to the Huffington Post, you can wind up on terror watch lists for all sorts of stupid reasons, or no reason at all.

1. You could raise “reasonable suspicion” that you’re involved in terrorism. “Irrefutable evidence or concrete facts” are not required.
2. You could post something on Facebook or Twitter that raises “reasonable suspicion.”
3. Or somebody else could just think you’re a potential terror threat.
4. You could be a little terrorist-ish, at least according to someone.
5. Or you could just know someone terrorist-y, maybe.
6. And if you’re in a “category” of people determined to be a threat, your threat status could be “upgraded” at the snap of a finger.
7. Finally, you could just be unlucky.

The utterly arbitrary nature of the watch list criteria is a train wreck of idiotic proportions, proving yet again that to really screw things up, you need the federal government to get involved.

What do we know about the Orlando Islamic terrorist attack?
We know that the wife-beating 29-year-old Islamic terrorist Democrat first started raising alarms with threats of terrorist violence in high school, more than a decade ago, and that his Taliban-supporting father is very friendly with the Democrat Party.
We know he celebrated 9/11 and the San Bernardino Islamic terror attacks.
We know that he was constantly issuing threats and talking about being affiliated with various terrorist groups, that he had relationships with two actual documented terrorists, and that at least one other Muslim at his mosque tried to alert the federal government about this Hillary-supporting terrorist years ago. We know that a Florida gun store, Lotus Gunworks, contacted the FBI over “suspicious behavior” from the suspect after denying him armor and ammunition, and that the FBI utterly failed to follow up.
In other words, the Islamic Democrat terrorist who so ruthlessly murdered 49 innocent people and wounded more than 50 more all but pranced around under a neon sign screaming:

I’M A MUSLIM TERRORIST, AND I INTEND TO ATTACK SOON!!!

The FBI and the ever-useless Department of Homeland Security did nothing.

In response to this easily predictable attack by a long-known Islamic terrorist threat, President Obama, Hillary Clinton, and House and the Democrat Party did what they always do: they blamed the National Rifle Association, a group so well known for suicide bombings, throwing gays off of buildings, setting enemy prisoners on fire, lynchings, and cross-burnings.
Wait a minute… that describes ISIS and the Ku Klux Klan, not the NRA. The NRA is the nation’s oldest and largest civil rights organization, and is the largest single group of law-abiding group of citizens in the United States.

Instead of targeting radicalized Islamic hate-spewers like the imams that shaped this terrorist, or closing more than 100 radical mosquesas France is doing in the wake of the Paris attacks, or using our considerable technological superiority to crush the dissemination of terrorism on web sites and in social media platforms, the Democrat Party and a handful of turncoat Republicans are focusing like a laser on those who have done nothing.
Childish House Democrats—several of whom have been pictured with the Islamic terrorist Democrat’s Taliban-supporting father in his many trips to Washington—are instead throwing a temper tantrum for more gun control.
Weathervane Republican Susan Collins of Maine is attempting to ram through another attempt at banning people on these incredibly flawed watch lists from buying guns, the third attempt at such a law this week, with a “compromise” bill that, while changing on the fly, only promises to compromise your rights and give the federal government more power that it will assuredly use ineptly.
The NRA and ACLU alike are condemning attempts by Congress to attack the rights of law-abiding citizens placed on arbitrary lists.
The U.S. homicide rate is at a 51-year-low. Accidents with firearms are also down dramatically over the past 20 years

We do not have a gun problem in the United States.
What we need Muslim terrorist Democrat control.

Hannity and NRA chief agree: Muslims and Democrats — not guns — cause mass shootings


Sean Hannity and the NRA’s executive director focused exclusively on two recent mass shootings committed by Muslims to blame Democrats — and not the gun lobby — for firearms deaths.

 

The Fox News host and Chris Cox, head of the NRA-ILA, blamed gun violence on foreign policy pursued by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, his former Secretary of State.

 

“The truth is, we’re facing a massive problem in this country,” Cox said. “We’re facing a crisis, and the crisis is not over the Second Amendment or guns — the crisis is over the fact that we have radical Islamic terrorists in this country trying to kill as many Americans as they can. So the question becomes, what are we going to do about it? We can go down the path of gun control. They have every gun control law imaginable in California, but it didn’t stop the terrorists in San Bernardino.”

 

Hannity is often accused of asking “softball” questions to conservative guests, but Thursday night he assumed the role of a prosecutor making all the arguments for his star witness — but in the form of a question.

 

“Does it anger you that these are the same people that gave guns to drug cartels, kidnappers (and) gangsters in ‘Fast and Furious’?” Hannity asked. “Does it anger you that the same people gave $150 billion to the No. 1 state sponsor of terror, Iran? Does it bother you they gave Mohamed Morsi, a guy that referred to Israelis as descendants of apes and pigs, you know, tanks and F-16s and money? Does it bother you that these are the people that released Gitmo detainees? Because it really bothers me, the level of hypocrisy — because those things that they did are far more dangerous than the average law-abiding citizen having a gun.”

 

Cox agreed those things did bother him.

 

“What bothers me is that fact that we all know that something bad’s going to happen again in this country,” Cox said. “And we also know that this president and Hillary Clinton are doing nothing to keep us safe. Their policies and philosophy, this political correctness and their philosophy and their policies are getting people killed. The fact that we’re not trusted to defend ourselves just defies logic and defies common sense. The American people are smarter than this, they’re sick and tired of this BS coming from Congress and coming from the political elite who surround themselves with armed security but want us to be defenseless.”

 

Hannity asked the gun lobbyist whether or not the NRA promoted gun safety.

 

“Sean, we’ve put 29 million kids through a gun avoidance program, little kids that are too young to be around guns,” Cox said. “We train more people in responsible and safe gun ownership than the federal government. We train the military, we put on the police competitions. We take a back seat to no one, not only when it involves safety, but also when it comes to national security. We’ve had NRA members who have fought and died in this war on terror, so to suggest that we somehow want to cause a problem or have terrorists get access to firearms is not just wrong, but it really is offensive, no question about it.”

This sums up the recent hysteria well....

 

 

 

I know that some of you aren't enthused about

Donald Trump

but it does explains some things.

 

WOW !!!!!

This is absolutely unthinkable that nobody, especially the CIA, would have noticed this....

Trump is starting to look better all the time.

This information has all been checked, then double checked... it is 100% Correct.

That's why there is such an alarm within US government, since Trump's statement about temporary suspension of migration ofMuslims to US until US authorities make sure there is a proper concept of safe penetration of US territory.

People are stunned to learn that the head of the U.S. CIA is a Muslim! Do hope this wakes up some!

Until it hits you like a ton of bricks read it again, until you understand!

We now have a Muslim government in the USA!

John Brennan, current head of the CIA converted to Islam while stationed in Saudi Arabia.

Obama's top adviser, Valerie Jarrett, is a Muslim who was born in Iran where her parents still live.

Hillary Clinton's top adviser, Huma Abedin is a Muslim, whose mother and brother are still involved in the now outlawed MuslimBrotherhood in Egypt!

Assistant Secretary for Policy Development for Homeland Security, Arif Aikhan, is a Muslim .

Homeland Security Adviser, Mohammed Elibiary, is a Muslim.

Obama adviser and founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, Salam al-Marayati, is a Muslim.

Obama's Sharia Czar, Imam Mohamed Magid, of the Islamic Society of North America is a Muslim.

Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships, Eboo Patel, is a Muslim.

Nancy Pelosi announced she will appoint Rep Andre Carson, D-Ind, a Muslim , as the first Muslim lawmaker on the House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, of all things! It would make Carson the first Muslim to serve on the committee that receives intelligence on the threat of Islamic militants in the Middle East! He has he suggested that U.S. schools should be modeled after Islamic madrassas, where education is based on the Quran!!!

Last but not least, our closet Muslim himself, Barack Hussein Obama.

It's questionable if Obama ever officially took the oath of office when he was sworn in. He did not repeat the oath properly to defend our nation and our Constitution. Later the Democrats claimed he was given the oath again, in private. Yeah, right.

CIA director John Brennan took his oath on a copy of the Constitution, not a Bible??

Valarie Jarret wrote her college thesis on how she wanted to change America into a Muslim friendly nation and she is a Obama top advisor!

Congressman, Keith Ellison took his oath on a copy of the Qur'an, NOT the Bible!

Conservative Congresswoman Michele Bachman, R-MN, was vilified and verbally tarred and feathered by Democrats when she voiced her concern about Muslims taking over our government!

Considering all these appointments, it would explain why Obama and his minions are systematically destroying our nation, supporting radical Muslim groups worldwide, opening our southern border, and turning a blind eye to the genocide being perpetrated on Christians all over Africa and the Middle East!

The more damage Obama does, the more arrogant he's become!

Our nation and our government has been infiltrated by people who want to destroy us! It can only get worse!

In his book Obama said, "if it comes down to it, I will side with the Muslims".

If you fail to pass this one on, there's something wrong......somewhere!

IN GOD WE TRUST

 

The Snake Poem


On her way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake
A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
"Oh well," she cried, "I'll take you in and I'll take care of you"
"Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake


She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
And then laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk
Now she hurried home from work that night as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taking in had been revived
"Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake


Now she clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful," she cried
"But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died"
Now she stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight
But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite
"Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake


"I saved you," cried that woman
"And you've bit me even, why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die"
"Oh shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin
"You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
"Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake

Poll: Half of Voters Distrust Government on Gun Control After Orlando Terror Attack

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/06/26/poll-half-voters-distrust-government-gun-control-orlando-terror-attack/

 

 

An NBC News/WSJ polled conducted after the Orlando terror attack shows half of voters distrust the government on gun control.

The start date for conducting the poll – June 19 – was one week after the attack that killed 49 people at the Pulse Orlando nightclub.

According to NBC News, 50 percent of voters believe the government “will go too far in restricting gun rights” while 47 percent believe the government “will not do enough.”

And despite the relentless Democrat push to ban “assault weapons” in the wake Orlando, 49 percent of voters said such a ban is “NOT worth it because it will not stop the attackers from getting the weapons they need.” A smaller group of voters – 45 percent – believe the ban is “worthwhile.”

Think about it: One week after Omar Mateen entered Pulse Orland0 with an AR-15 and a handgun and killed 49 people, half of voters expressed distrust regarding the government’s attempt to use the incident to secure more gun control. Moreover, the percentage of voters who believe an “assault weapons” ban is not worthwhile is larger than the percentage who believe otherwise.

To understand these poll results one need only come to grips with the fact that Mateen passed a background check for his firearms – Democrats constantly stress the importance of a background check – and he also passed a 3-day waiting period for his handgun. Moreover, the club in which he carried out his attack was a gun-free zone, which means it had 100 percent gun control via an all-out gun ban. But background checks did not stop Mateen, nor did a waiting period, nor did the declaration of a gun-free zone.

Yet after all these gun control failures the government’s solution is – more gun control. Half of voters distrust this approach.
