Gun Survey

The papers are spouting off about some gun survey commissioned by an anti-gun group that purports to show an 80% majority support tougher gun laws and magazine restrictions based on a ridiculously small sample size and biased questions. Todd Vandermyde blasts the survey and we aren't linking to it as we happen to agree it's just a propaganda piece.

You want to see a real survey, check this one out. 15,000 verified law enforcement members give their opinion on gun "control." These are the men and women who see the direct results of what is passed by the legislature. A sampling (click on the pictures for larger images):








In other words, something advocated here by ourselves and a majority of our readership. And it tracks with national feelings by other law enforcement professionals.

It's just the media using the old adage: If you tell a lie long enough, loud enough and often enough, people will start to believe it.

Great survey! Too bad the larger public doesn't get to see it. The media reads the blog, but we all know they won't publish the report. If anyone can tell you what should be done about firearms, it's law enforcement. The survey says it all and I agree with the majoriety on every question. Democrats always hurt the honest citizen while the criminals do whatever they want with no fear of punishment or armed good guys.

Many Americans have tired of the "War on Drugs" and want a "War on Guns".

Trouble is, the latter is protected by our Constitution and may actually end up in a war.

So what are you saying:

Are you saying the Superintendent is out of touch with a huge majority of his contemporaries?

Are you saying the Superintendent is a political puppet manipulated by con men politicians that are way smarter tan him?

Are you saying that he is a want- to-be on the National scene and is just a goof?

Yes.

That survey was nothing but a self congratulatory exercise in hurried, haphazard, one pantleg on fuckery by the gun grabbers.

Bullshit was the called shot...

Corner pocket...

*WHAP! Splut!*

Man... These fuckers are so desperate for theirs to be the only narrative.

We figure that they're not above winding up some mis-medicated, cookie-cutter, Manchurian Candidate loon with a bad itch in his ass, "funny" voices in his head and setting him loose amongst decent, unarmed and unprepared people to do what those "funny" voices tell him to do.

Herky-jerking across the stage like the faulty wind-up toy they always are...

*Bzz-whirr, bzz-whirr, bzz-whirr*

You'll know him when you see him. M/Fer's got those eyes that light up and shoot sparks.

The BAD button has already been pushed so just get the fuck out of his way. At least until he suicides himself...

>POP! BOOIIING! (springs and gears flying every which way.)<

Fuck the dumb-shit and pretending all is rainbows, unicorns and French pre-moistened lollipops... The Israelis had it right for years. Hardhead m/fer even LOOKING at a school or public building sideways is going to get his ass kakked with the quickness.

The motherfucker that blinks is just a dead motherfucker in the dark. Guaranteed...

It ain't all guns either...

Notice the now pregnant silence regarding the unhinged whack-a-do dicing 14 people with a knife at a Texas community college.

So... What's really up with this rash of motherfuckers who gnawed through their straps and are running around maiming and killing a lot of people at one time?

This country has a problem regarding securely HOUSING AND CONTAINING dangerously crazy people.

The reality is that the problem isn't guns...

The problem is the gun-grabber agenda of national disarmament of ALL in order to disarm those who might not go along with the program.

Heh... The armed wing of the Catered to Constituency has no fear. They will remain untouched and in place.

Survey of law officers finds majority doesn't agree with Obama's gun control plan

Published April 09, 2013

FoxNews.com

An overwhelming majority of law enforcement officers says a federal ban on assault weapons would not reduce the risk of violent crime, according to a recently released national survey of active duty and retired officers.

CHICAGO MACHINE MISREPRESENTS ISRA POSITION ON GUN CONTROL

The liars in Chicago City Hall are at it again. This time they are spreading misinformation claiming that the ISRA supports a very dangerous gun control bill.

WE NEED YOU TO HELP SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT

Anti-gun crackpot Rep. Michael Zalewski recently introduced HB 2265. This gun control bill would set mandatory 3-year jail terms for violating any gun control law. For example, forget to renew your FOID and you go to jail for 3 years. On the other hand, if you boost a liquor store with a knife, you might get a 6-month suspended sentence. You know what this is all about. You know this isn’t about crime – it’s about punishing lawful gun owners.

THE CHICAGO MACHINE IS LYING TO REPRESENTATIVES CLAIMING THAT THE ISRA SUPPORTS ZALEWSKI’S DRACONIAN GUN CONTROL BILL. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE LIE. THE ISRA STEADFASTLY OPPOSES HB2265.

Love the acceptance speech by Robin Kelly, "I will fight the NRA and Tea Party and fight for more gun control". "I will do this to help keep people safe". Funny I feel safer when I have a gun.

Why is it that the people who steal guns then go and kill moviegoers and children in school have never been conservative NRA members???

1: Ft. Hood Shooter - Registered Democrat - Muslim

2: Columbine Shooters - Too young to vote - both families were registered democrats and progressive liberals.

3: Virginia Tech Shooter - Wrote hate mail to Pres. Bush and to his staff -Registered Democrat

4: Colorado Theater Shooter - Registered Democrat - staff worker on the Obama campaign - occupy wall street participant - progressive liberal

5: Connecticut School Shooter - Registered Democrat - hated Christians!!

Common thread is that all of these shooters were progressive liberal democrats!

So the Feds want to ban magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, eh, then the
bad guys will carry two 10
round magazines. And since that nutjob killed those students yesterday by stabbing them, does that now
mean that the Feds will ban
knives with sharp
points that can penetrate flesh ? What do they call that, a knee-jerk reaction ?

The answer is YES to all your questions. The Supt.'s opinion was bought and paid for. He sold his values. He's a pupet.

CBS5AZ.com has an article about the survey on today's web site. You might not see the Chicago media report this story but the same is not true about other cities. Of course there is a comment from a anti-gun person saying the survey is flawed because only 15000 LEOs participated but they keep using the 90% argument for back round checks even though only 1000 people were in that survey.

Drugs were once protected by our constitution also. The Harrison act of 1914 changed all that. Drugs were legal in our country with only very minor problems for 135 years until 1914. Never say never

I think I'm going to trust the men and women in blue who have firsthand experience with gun violence and culture over a group who surveyed 900 out of the 12 MILLION residents in Illinois and called their conclusions an "overwhelming majority."

It's really sad that most people won't bother looking at how the stats were obtained, or who did the obtaining and factor that into their opinions. Common sense is a lost art.

Rahm & peckerwinkle will allow concealed carry. Those who do will only be allowed to carry an unloaded revolver with one bullet in their pocket of choice. This is to allow the Concealed Carry person to cool off and let the robber steal their firearm under threat of being shot with a Mac 10 and a 30 rd magazine.
