- Like the reply or not, Cam Edwards gets what is probably the last reply on the Mike Wallace issue.
Charlotte, NC may restrict open carry. My guess is that any restriction won't include the police. From the NRA. Cam Edwards points us to New York Mayor Bloomberg referring to passage of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act as "disgraceful". We would refer to Republican support of Mayor Bloomberg as "a waste of good money". In the next mayoral election, vote for "Nobody". After all, Nobody running for office cares and Nobody running for office will do anything for our rights.

For you consideration we present 'No-fly' action takes pilot's job. The short story is that a British citizen is prevented from getting further flight training and then loses his job because he was added to the no-fly list. The problem is that he is really not on the list. The 'Robert Gray' on the list is Hispanic; the 'Robert Gray' in question is white. That does not stop the government from ending his life as he knew it.
To make matters worse:
And the gun grabbers wish to take away people's Second Amendment rights with an equal amount of due process.

Gingrey proposed and the House passed by voice vote House Resolution 493 to consider S.397 in the House with one hour of debate. The key wording is:
The bill shall be considered as read. The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the bill to final passage without intervening motion except: (1) one hour of debate equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the Judiciary; and (2) one motion to recommit.
This is key. It limits the debate time and prevents the gun grabbers from proposing a slew of poison pill amendments. Good News. The expectation is that S.397 will be on its way to the President's desk by tomorrow night. |

This week the House is supposed to take up the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. It was originially to be taken up in September, but the House schedule became a casualty of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Because the target adjournment date was over 2 weeks ago (September 30), the House is going to consider the Senate version, S.397.
We know that alot of sites are making stink about the armor piercing ammunition amendment to S.397 ( SA1645). In reality, the admendment only calls for a study of the feasibiliity of studying armor piercing ammunition. It does not empower the Attorney General to outlaw any forms of ammunition. In fact, the only power the AG has with respect to APA is to declare ammunition to be NOT APA based upon certain conditions ( 18 USC 921(a)17). The bottom line is that nothing can happen with armor piercing ammunition until more legislation is proposed and passed. Proposals of those bills have already been proposed twice by Sen. Kennedy and they have repeatedly failed. |

I see no use in repeating what others are already saying, so I will just point to some of what I find interesting today.
- Cam Edwards gets a reply from CBS about Mike Wallace and his gun control activism.
- Alphecca points us to an article on the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act and South Dakota politics.
- Alphecca also has updates on the FEMA house gun control model.
- Publicola has a carnival of checks and carnivals.
Check them out and have a good weekend.
