Do Gun Rights Trump The First Amendment? One Federal Court Thinks So

Do Gun Rights Trump The First Amendment? One Federal Court Thinks So by Ian Millhiser A divided federal appeals court held on Tuesday that Florida lawmakers could censor what doctors say to their patients, handing a victory to gun groups in the process. This is the second time the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit upheld the law, often referred to as the “physician gag rule,” which punishes many doctors who speak to their patients about guns. Tuesday’s opinion replaces an opinion handed down last year which reached the same result. The Florida law restricts record-keeping by doctors… View Article

The National Rifle Association attacks Australian gun laws

The National Rifle Association attacks Australian gun laws AMERICA’S powerful gun lobby has Australia in its firing line. The National Rifle Association has criticised the land down under for its “Orwellian” gun laws instituted following the Port Arthur massacre in 1996. In a provocatively-titled article, Australia: There Will Be Blood, the NRA disputes whether the gun buyback scheme and ban on semiautomatic weapons actually helped Australia reduce rates of violent crime. There was a “growing consensus” among impartial researchers that disarming Australian citizens did not make them safer, the association’s America’s 1st Freedom magazine said. US President Barack Obama recently… View Article

Machine gun restoration project under way

Machine gun restoration project under way By Richard Turtle Harold – A pair of 100-year-old German guns, taken as souvenirs at the end of World War I, will be temporarily removed from the cenotaph on Highway 14 to be refurbished thanks to the efforts of the local branch of the Royal Canadian Legion and the Stirling-Rawdon Historical Society. Silenced in 1918, the guns will never fire again says society member John Lowry, but they will be cleaned up and returned to their original colours, perhaps even solving a few mysteries along the way. Lowry explains that significant research has been… View Article

Concealed carry rewrite bill in Idaho concerns Idaho Sheriffs’ Association

Concealed carry rewrite bill in Idaho concerns Idaho Sheriffs’ Association By Vaughn Killeen House Bill 301, which is before the Idaho Senate, was promoted as a rewrite of Idaho’s concealed weapon’s license law to make it more readable. However, some believe it is still cumbersome, and buried in its language is a major shift in policy regarding who is eligible for a concealed weapon license. Currently, 18-3302(1)(i) provides a disqualifier for anyone who “has had entry of a withheld judgment for a criminal offense which would disqualify him from obtaining a concealed weapon license.” This new bill, in contrast, at… View Article

Why Russia Shut Down NED Fronts

Why Russia Shut Down NED Fronts Secret hand behind NED’s creation was the CIA by Robert Parry The Washington Post’s descent into the depths of neoconservative propaganda – willfully misleading its readers on matters of grave importance – apparently knows no bounds as was demonstrated with two deceptive articles regarding Russian President Vladimir Putin and why his government is cracking down on “foreign agents.” If you read the Post’s editorial on Wednesday and a companion op-ed by National Endowment for Democracy President Carl Gershman, you would have been led to believe that Putin is delusional, paranoid and “power mad” in… View Article

The Bush Family: A Continuing Criminal Enterprise?

The Bush Family: A Continuing Criminal Enterprise? Gary W. Potter, PhD. Professor, Criminal Justice Eastern Kentucky University The S&Ls, the Mob and the Bushs During the 1980’s hundred of Savings and Loan Banks failed. Those bank failures cost U.S. taxpayers over $500 billion to cover federally insured losses, and much more to investigate the bank failures (Pizzo, Fricker, and Muolo, 1989; Brewton, 1992; Johnston, 1990). More than 75% of the Savings and Loan insolvencies where directly linked to serious and often criminal misconduct by senior financial insiders (Pizzo, Fricker and Muolo, 1989: 305). In fact, less than 10 percent of… View Article

Donald Trump Would Be the Real First Black President

Donald Trump Would Be the Real First Black President by Milo Yiannopoulos Despite his skin colour, it could be argued Obama is a pretty white president. He’s the product of elite American institutions and corrupt Chicago politics, and he is constantly derided by the black community for letting them down. Consider, by contrast, what the effect of a Donald Trump presidency could be for black Americans. For one thing, a Republican president would do a far better job of insisting that places like Baltimore and Ferguson are policed properly. Whacking black families on welfare and turning a blind eye to… View Article

No Congressional GOP Leaders Will Support Reducing Immigration

No Congressional GOP Leaders Will Support Reducing Immigration by Julia Hahn As U.S. census data projects that immigration will soon exceed all documented historical records, not one Republican leader in Congress supports the popular step of reducing immigration. Each year the United States admits one million people with green cards, their dependents and refugees, as well as half a million foreign youths sought by college administrators. Census data projects that, if visas are not slashed or halted, another 14 million immigrant settlers will arrive in the U.S. over the next decade. Polls from Fox News and Gallup show that Americans… View Article

Bill allows government to revoke Americans’ passports without charges or trial

Bill allows government to revoke Americans’ passports without charges or trial Source: Police State USA A bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives would allow the government to restrict Americans’ travel through the revocation of passports based upon mere suspicions of unscrupulous activity. This bill represents another dangerous step forward in the war on terror and the disintegration of American due process. H.R. 237, the “FTO (Foreign Terrorist Organization) Passport Revocation Act of 2015,” will allow the U.S. Secretary of State the unchecked authority to prohibit individuals from traveling internationally. According to the bill, the Secretary may unilaterally revoke… View Article
