Barack Obama at a recent rural elementary school assembly
in East Texas , asked the audience for total quiet.  Then, in the silence,
he started to slowly clap his hands once every few seconds, holding
the audience in total silence.

Then he said into the microphone, "Children, every time I clap my hands
together, a child in America dies from gun violence."

Then, little Richard Earl, with a proud East Texas drawl, pierced the quiet and said: ''Well, dumbass, stop clapping!"

“It’s everyone’s right to sit in a restaurant or coffee shop with
their families without intimidation or fear of guns,” the group said in
its modern rendition of FDR’s famous “freedom from fear” quote.

As we pointed out, the Brady Campaign has been quick to fabricate a
“right” to feel free from fear, while angrily scoffing at the right to
self-protection, by encouraging its minions to sign a petition
demanding that Starbucks establish a gun policy more restrictive than state law.  “I
demand that Starbucks stand up for the safety of its customers and
prohibit guns in your [sic] retail establishments,” the petition reads.

Now the group is trying to gain political momentum for its stunt by claiming it has 25,000 names on its petition.

Despite occasional rhetoric to the contrary, the Brady Campaign has always wanted nothing less than a total ban on guns.  They’ve lost much of their political relevance over the years, and now are desperate to regain some by any means possible.  Today it’s a petition attacking Starbucks.  Tomorrow it’s every public place.  Next week it’s your home, and next month it’s no guns anywhere.  And we’re back to the anti-gunners’ very flawed square one:  disarm
the law-abiding, while leaving the thugs, gang-bangers, and drug
dealers armed. That’s their plan for a “safer” world where we don’t
have “fear or intimidation.”  

But back in the real world, what about YOUR Constitutionally-guaranteed right to safety and self-defense?

A call to Starbucks confirmed what was pretty obvious on its face.  The
company is in the business to sell coffee, not jump in the middle of a
Brady-generated squabble that state law has already resolved in favor
of the right to carry firearms.

Members, gun owners, and all freedom-loving citizens should
contact Starbucks to thank them for complying with state law, and
respectfully encourage the company to stay above the fray into which
anti-gun activists are trying to drag them.  Click here to do so.

Long time Anti-Gun Advocate State Senator R.C. Soles, 74, shot one of two intruders at his home just outside Tabor City, N.C. about 5 p.m. Sunday, the prosecutor for the politician's home county said.

The victim, Kyle Blackburn, was taken to a  South Carolina  hospital, but the injuries were not reported to be life-threatening, according to Rex Gore, district attorney for Columbus, Bladen and Brunswick counties..

The State Bureau of Investigation and Columbus County Sheriff 's Department are investigating the shooting, Gore said. Soles, who was not arrested,declined to discuss the incident Sunday evening.

"I am not in a position to talk to you," Soles said by telephone. "I'm right in the middle of an investigation."

The Senator, who has made a career of being against gun ownership for the general public, didn't hesitate to defend himself with his own gun when he believed he was in immediate danger and he was the victim.

In typical hypocritical liberal fashion, the "Do As I Say And Not As I Do" Anti-Gun Activist Lawmaker picked up his gun and took action in what apparently was a self-defense shooting. Why hypocritical you may ask? It is because his long legislative record shows that the actions that he took to protect his family, his own response to a dangerous life threatening situation, are actions that he feels ordinary citizens should not have if they were faced with an identical situation.

It has prompted some to ask if the Senator believes his life and personal safety is more valuable than yours or mine.

But, this is to be expected from those who believe they can run our lives, raise our kids, and protect our families better than we can.

Senate Bill 40, sponsored by State Senator George Munoz (D-4) would allow concealed handgun licensees to lawfully carry for self-defense in establishments that are licensed to serve beer and wine for consumption on the premises. The bill was reported out of the Senate Corporations & Transportation Committee this week and now moves to the Senate Judiciary Committee for consideration. Please contact Senate Judiciary Committee members and urge them to support SB 40. Contact information can be found here.

The House companion bill, House Bill 83 by State Representative John Heaton (D-55), has been referred to the House Business & Industry and House Judiciary Committees, but has yet to be scheduled for a hearing. Please contact House Business & Industry Committee members and House Judiciary Committee members and urge them to support HB 83. Contact information for both committees can be found here.

State Senator Stuart Ingle (R-27) has introduced Senate Bill 212, a bill to eliminate the two-hour refresher course for concealed handgun licensees. That bill has been referred to the Senate Public Affairs Committee and Senate Judiciary Committee, but has yet to be scheduled for a hearing. Please contact members of the Senate Public Affairs Committee and urge them to support SB 212. Contact information can be found here.
