San Diego Police Chief Says Guns Will Be Taken off Streets in a Generation - Suuuure. Just Like Drugs.
Of course, his department makes a lot of money off the eternally unwon "war' on drugs. So now he and his thuggish mates can claim that they just need more time and money to win the "war" on firearms.
Meanwhile, as firearm ownership has skyrocketed in the US over the past sixteen years, the violent crime rate has plummeted.

So-Called Assault Weapons become 'Self-Defense' Weapons When DHS Orders 7,000 of Them
The Department of Homeland "Security" has ordered 7,000 AR-15 rifles. Why? One wonders. It certainly couldn't have anything to do with defending the US Constitution, since the mere existence of the DHS is not warranted by the Constitution. But isn't it interesting to note that the gubment calls these "Assault Rifles" when civilians try to own them, and they magically become "Self-Defense" rifles when the gubment owns them?
This article comes via The Blaze, Beck's site. Paleo-conservative, not fully libertarian, but the information is valid.

Georgetown U 'Law' Professor Says - Time to Give Up on the Constitution
Yep. What's funny about this one is that they guy doesn't like the rules for the country putting things into the hands of "lawyers" and "judges". But he still supports the state, which has as its foundation a series of laws and those who write them and a so-called "justice" system that upholds those laws. He seems to love his selective application of the kinds of laws he likes. If it's a law "by the people" that is contrary to the rules of the government as written in the Constitution, and he would rather not try to AMEND the Constitution? He would rather just have the law. Pushaw to the lawyers when we have to get the Constitution involved. But what happens to the people who then run afoul of his plebiscite laws?
Cheers to David Mamet! He Comes Out Strong for Individual Liberty, Free Markets and the Right to Self Defense!
Awesome. Kudos to Mr. Mamet for not only writing such a powerful defense of the subjective nature of all economic decisions, but also for such a fiery verbal punch into the gut of conceited statism.
Beautiful to see. Mr. Mamet recently announced that he had turned away from his former left-statist ideology. He has clearly been diving deep into the waters of free market economics and libertarian philosophy, and he has clearly been using logic to great effect. Great essay.

TSA Screener Assaults and Threatens Passenger over T-Shirt
Not one of the TSA thugs caught on video has ever been able to offer a constitutional justification for the presence of this federal agency in the airports, not will they ever be able to. The TSA is not sanctioned by the US Constitution, and infringes on the 4th Amendment's clear command that any search of a person or his effects/property that a government agent wants to conduct MUST be accompanied by a WARRANT, issued by a JUDGE, upon the JUDGE'S deetermination of PROBABLE CAUSE.
Good to see more people fighting back with moves like this!

Homeland 'Security' Announces New Anti-Civil Rights, Anti-Firearms Moves to Link to Prez Orders
More spending, more glad-handling, more invasions of private information (through the 'research' end of this)... The brown shirts are starting to become visible beneath the white collars of the bureaucrats.
But, we're SURE janet Napolitano can name the provisions in the US Constitution that allow her agents and pals to do these things... Right?
As Cosby said, "Riiiiiiiight."

Closed Biden Meeting with Dems Indicates President Ready to Use 19 Executive Moves to Restrict 2nd Amendment
Notice this quote from the article: "The focus on executive orders is the result of the White House and other Democrats acknowledging the political difficulty of enacting any new gun legislation, a topic Biden did not address in Monday’s meeting." So, not only are they not interested in acknowledging the fact that they aren't going to propose any AMENDMENT to the Constitution, they are not even interested in the idea of putting the question to the Congressional representatives. That process wouldn't be Constitutional, but the fact that the Executive Branch is trying to avoid Congress indicates that they know it is not popular.
Prez: "I'm confident that there are some measures we can take on gun violence that are within my executive powers."
Actually? No. There are none. And there are none in the powers granted by the Constitution to Congress. IN FACT, Mr. President, you and Congress are EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED from infringing on the right to keep and bear arms. ANY ARMS. If you would like to uphold your oath of office to "protect and defend the Constitution", then don't move by executive action, and try to AMEND the Constitution. It's pretty simple.
Oh, what's that? It would be nigh impossible to win enough votes to amend the Constitution? So you'll just do what you want anyway and continue to pretend you're "defending the Constitution"?
What a surprise.

The School Loan Default Bubble - Feds Already Bailing Out!
Recall our discussions on the Liberty Conspiracy that the entrance of the feds into the student loan and grant business has prompted an artificial increase in demand for college admissions, thus pushin gup prices and decreasing quality?
Well, the defaults have begun, and the feds are instituting a NEW, FUN program to inspire more defaults and to, essentially, pay for huge portions of college loan recipients' bills! Great!

Bailout Recipient Bank of America Reportedly Shuts Down Acct of Gun Maker
This is the second time this accusation has been leveled. If true, that means that those shut down by BoA got to see their tax money taken from them by the Feds in order to bail out BoA and help BoA buy Merrill Lynch at a cheap price. That bank is now arbitrarily blocking the lawful sale of the guns and gun parts. Nice. Anyone have money with BoA? Investments with Merrill? It might be a good idea to show them how the market works...
