Penny Dean and Your Rights

The Washington Times (http://www.washingtontimes.com) has an interesting take on the unemployment crisis that the current administration is trying to address. The subtitle of this article says "Stimulate the economy by repealing pointless firearms restrictions."

<blockquote>

Ken Shepherd, at newsbusters.org, discusses the Washington Post article about a recent murder of a Park Ranger. Instead of talking much about a person who would murder a Park Ranger, the Post seems to hold a "cartoonish view of gun-owners as ill-tempered hotheads who cannot resolve verbal arguments without force of arms."

From the Union Leader, we read a story about banning guns, or actually, NOT banning guns, on college campus.

Be sure to voice your opinion. There is a poll that you can click to vote for your opinion about this topic. And also be sure to glance at some of the comments that others have left over at their site... you will probably notice many of the same, stale arguments by the anti-rights crowd, including:

"If it saves one child's life..."
"Shootout in the OK Corral..."
"Wild wild west..."

Anderson should know. He was arrested in 2008 for planting cocaine on four men in a bar in Queens.

In response to Rep. Laura Pantelakos' repeated inquiries, atty. Dean comes through with specific instances of citizens wrongfully prosecuted for defending themselves.

An editorial at The Washington Times ( http://www.washingtontimes.com/ ) tells us that "Obama scares women and liberals into the gun store." The article explains how "many of the firearms that have been flying off the shelves in the past two years were purchased by Democrats and women."

<img src="http://media.washtimes.com/media/image/2011/06/09/b1handguns-ah_s160x109... align="right">The Washington Times editorial (http://www.washingtontimes.com ) from August 22, 2001 discusses the results of one trillion dollars of cure that the current administration has poured into fixing unemployment. Liberals told us that this would stimulate the economy. It did not.

Liberals also told us that if law-abiding concealed-carry gun owners were to set foot into a restaurant or bar, that there would be shootouts like the old west had.
