Debatable -- Should You Have the Right to Carry a Gun?

It's not debatable at all. I have that right. No one else has any legitimate say in the matter.

But this is the kind of nonsense we've come to expect from Racine's Green Party Alderman Pete Karas, who is organizing a demonstration demanding his constituents be disarmed under force of arms--and he no doubt will have a gaggle of ninnies with him bleating in agreement.

Karas is the same anti-defense fanatic who doesn't want the cops handing out Eddie Eagle coloring books to kids because "by making kids aware of guns ... they may, in essence, be harming children, especially those who are contemplating juvenile suicide or juvenile homicide."

Rational guy, eh? What must that say of his constituents? Maybe anyone who voted for him is too dumb to be trusted with weapons.

Inmate Found Carrying Gun in Courthouse

[T]he county jail inmate and convicted felon hid a .38-caliber snub-nosed revolver with hollow-point bullets, the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office said...

"We're still investigating how he got the gun," Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Chuck Lesaltato said. "We're looking at the whole thing from the time he was arrested to the time he was arrested at the courthouse."

Government "authorities" are at it again, with the same non-proprietary competence we've all come to expect.

How does the cliché go? When guns are outlawed...

And it's not like finding someone in custody with a firearm hasn't happened before [warning--graphic video].

And before.

And before...

Desperate Bradys Resort to Insults

The Brady Center will be protesting Florida's new self defense law.

In a flier the group plans to pass out at Miami International Airport and possibly Orlando International Airport, tourists will be admonished to take precautions that include: "Do not argue unnecessarily with local people."

Can you believe the nerve? Trying to make people think Floridians are violent hotheads who will shoot people over disagreements?

These liars have been waving red flags at gun owners for years. Yet the instances of violence and criminality we see all seem to come from the anti-defense zealots--not from armed Bill of Rights advocates.

I can think of a few creative and funny ways to (peaceably) monkeywrench these dolts--but I have a feeling they're going to make fools of themselves just fine without any outside help at all.
