I like Sig Sauer, and I’m not anti-cop but I don’t think gun-tootin’ Libertarians like seeing Statists packing guns.

May I suggest an ad featuring normal people with that firearm?

More people than ever are buying guns in Washington State, and gun hater David M. Rosenthal doesn’t like it:

In 2012, licensed firearm dealers in Washington conducted 519,209 background checks for gun sales — three times the number a decade earlier, according to a federal database.

….

Hospitals here admitted 122 people with “unintentional firearm” injuries that year, the latest for which data is available

….

The 2012 numbers show that the year’s carnage stretched far beyond the three incidents that captured widespread attention in three weeks that winter.

First of all, let’s assume 122 gun injuries came from law-abiding gun owners and not from criminals who didn’t go to a background check. That’s a 0.02% rate of injury! I wish activities like casual sex had that rate of injury! Even the pill women take is only 99% effective, which means you’re more likely to get pregnant than you are to get injured by your g

We’re standing up against our enemies, bravo.

Gun rights advocates in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., reportedly burned nearly one thousand gun registration forms to ashes in a clear act of civil disobedience.

Under the hastily-passed SAFE Act, Gun owners have until April 15 to register their so-called semi-automatic rifles that fall under the state’s own definition of “military-style assault weapons.” The forms they burned are the very forms the state wants them to turn in registering their firearms.

Instead, gun owners rallied at the Saratoga-Wilton Elks Lodge 161 to torch the forms in a “symbolic protest,” the Post-Star reports.

Jake Palmateer, co-founder of NY2A, the gun rights group that organized the protest, said the group stands against gun registration because the “evidence is clear that registration leads to confiscation.”

Palmateer also said he and other gun owners hope so few people register their guns that the provision “

I don’t know if this story belongs in the gun banner category, I’m putting it there just in case. I don’t see how the gun is a “dark, dark object.” If the Pope could forgive the man that shot him, maybe the museum director needs to forgive the gun, or better yet, realize it’s just an object.

(CNN) — The gun used in an assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II is to be displayed in the late pontiff’s childhood home in Poland, ahead of his expected canonization next month.

Italy’s Justice Ministry has loaned the weapon, a Browning 9mm, to the John Paul II Museum in his hometown, Wadowice, for three years.

“It is a dark, dark object,” the museum’s director, Reverend Darius Ras, told CNN. “But it is important for the historical memory of events in the life of John Paul II.”

Would-be assassin Mehmet Ali Agca used the firearm to shoot the then-Pope in the abdomen, arm and hand, as he was driven through St Peter’s Square, Rome on May 13, 1981.

Pope John Paul II suffered life-threatening injuries in the attack, but recovered after undergoing major surgery; he later forgave Agca after meeting him in prison.

Agca, who has never fully explained the reasons behi

This picture is upsetting some people:

The ad, beside a story about the 12-year-old boy who shot and wounded two classmates Tuesday, offers website visitors sales and discounts on guns, ammunition and training classes.

A similar incident occurred earlier in January when Connecticut newspaper, The Stamford Advocate, ran a very large gun advertisement next to a story about the first day back to school for Sandy Hook Elementary students. The newspaper later apologized for the “insensitive” error.
