Penny Dean and Your Rights

On Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security, along with a SWAT team and Bernalillo County sheriff’s deputies raided the home of Robert Adams in Albuquerque, New Mexico and, according to a federal search warrant affidavit the raid seized nearly 1,500 firearms from the man’s home and business. However, no charges have been filed against him, despite the fact that court documents reveal that agents had been watching Adams for years.

By Wednesday afternoon dozens of rifles were hauled out of the house, bagged as evidence and laid out on the lawn.

In this <a href="http://blogs.findlaw.com/injured/2013/01/nypd-interrogated-boy-7-for-10-... blog entry</a>, the issue is raised about a child who is handcuffed to a wall in the police station for hours, according to the claim.

The article continues, and discusses whether or not it was as many hours as the mother alleges, and whether or not the proper sequence was followed for her to file her claim against the police, who are, after all, government employees and "as a result they have some immunity from liability for actions they perform while on the job."

We pick up this story, taken <a href="https://law.justia.com/cases/massachusetts/court-of-appeals/2013/12-p-74... the opinion of the court</a>, where Paul and Joe are having a little fun at the bar:

A man standing outside a weapons buyback event in Seattle on Saturday bought a missile launcher for $100 from another person, reports SeattlePI.com.

As a controlled military item, the missile launcher is not available to civilians through any surplus or disposal programs.

The military weapon was a single-use device and had already been used. The weapon was confiscated by police, and they replaced it with a gift card.

Police said the missile launcher was taken to determine what exactly it was and that the non-functioning weapon could be later returned to the man.

And we might add this: where is the outrage against the man who threatened her life using that knife, just so he could steal a few bucks from her? There is no call for "knife control" or any idiotic message like that. The knife did not commit the crime. A human did.

There seems to be no outrage against the "bad guy".

<img src="http://zionica.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/slater2.jpg" align="right">A Georgia mother gunned down an intruder who broke into her home as her children hid in a crawlspace.

The 37-year-old woman initially thought the person knocking at her door was a solicitor. But when the man repeatedly rang the doorbell, she called her husband. He told her to gather the children and hide while he called 911.

By that time, the man had already forced his way into the three-story house in the town of Loganville.

“Our Founders intended the Senate to be a body where legislation was slowed down and subject to improvement through extended debate and amendment. [Harry] Reid’s proposed ‘reforms’ would remove two of the most fundamental rights traditionally reserved to all Senators -- to freely debate and amend legislation. I shall not stand for that.” -- Senator Rand Paul (R-KY)

On Election Day last November, several Democrat Senators were campaigning for reelection in pro-gun states. And in order to get their constituents’ votes, they promised fealty to the Second Amendment.

In early morning news that went unchallenged by the mainstream press, Jaime Avila Jr., 25, a ring leader caught red-handed in the Fast and Furious government gun-smuggling operation, was allowed on Wednesday to take a plea agreement with just over a month of punishment for each of 52 AK-47-type rifles he is known to have smuggled to drug lords. Two of Avila's smuggled guns were found at the scene of the murder of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.
