USA –-(Ammoland.com)- Deadly Prescription For Business

“Although the MDGs do not talk about economic development, economic growth is the only way for whole societies to rise out of poverty. And economic development cannot occur without abundant, affordable, reliable, non-intermittent, on-demand energy.

Many climate scientists argue that we need to mitigate global warming because it will most hurt the poor. Apparently these scientists do not understand their own models.” ~

Utah -(AmmoLand.com)- In his November 24th joint press conference, with President Hollande of France, concerning the Paris attacks, President Obama said “…another part of defeating terrorists like ISIL, is upholding the rights and freedoms that define our two great republics.

Chatsworth, IL -(AmmoLand.com)- On Saturday, Dec. 11, hardcore antigun extremists in the Illinois House introduced HB4359 which would require you to surrender your FOID card and firearms if your name ever appears on the government’s “NO FLY LIST.”

Obama and the gun grabbers would like you to believe that people on this list are too dangerous to own guns. If one accepts that simplistic view, then HB4359 might make sense to them. However, the thinking person will have a lot of serious questions about the no-fly list.

NO-FLY LIST Q&A:
1. Q: How does a person...

Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri training deputies to kill law-abiding gun owners.

Tallahassee, FL -(AmmoLand.com)- Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri is not above fabricating his own version of the truth to get his way.

Even after the outright lies he was telling about the Open Carry bill were exposed in the press, the Sheriff continues to act as a purveyor of falsehoods and irrational fear.

The law-abiding gun owners of Florida have every faith in the professionalism and judgement of most law enforcement officers. It seems that we have more faith in Gualtieri’s deputies than the Sheriff does himself. The message that Sheriff Gualtieri is spreading now is that his deputies will violently attack, and may even murder, law-abiding gun owners who openly...

Utah -(AmmoLand.com)- While the United States and much of the world is under attack from radical Islamic terrorists, President Obama refuses to see the threat and instead views the NRA in particular, and gun owners in general, as the threat.

A few recent examples of the President’s inability to grasp the situation are:

On November 29th President Obama declares that ISIS is contained. One day later Islamic terrorists murder 130 people and injure 368 in France. France, a country with gun control laws so draconian they make...

VicPol’s behaviour

Australia -(AmmoLand.com)- You will probably be aware the Victoria Police issued transportation guidelines which copped our ire.

Then they changed the guidelines, removing some offending words but adding a new “offence” of speeding while carrying a firearm.

It was pathetic.
