United States -(AmmoLand.com)- A Newton-based gun control group called on it’s members and other true believers to boycott companies that are owned by Cerberus Management a holding and investment company.

Shaw’s, Star Market, Safeway, Osco Drug and Steward Health Care, operators of St. Anne’s Hospital in Fall River and Morton Hospital in Taunton are on this guys list. Many of these were named by the organization directly and are in the Connecticut area.

“They’re as sinister as they come,” Rosenthal said of Cerberus

I don’t see Osco Drugs or Safeway as sinister; don’t know the other companies but I doubt there is anything there either. Cerberus owns a small cadre of freedom related manufactures, like Bushmaster and Remington.

Shop at one of these stores and then ASK FOR A COMMENTS CARD and thank them for supporting the 2nd Amendment. Be polite...

United States -(AmmoLand.com)- In the feudal era there were the “three estates” — the clergy, the nobility and the commons. The first and second were eradicated in Robespierre’s Revolution.

But in the 18th and 19th century, Edmund Burke and Thomas Carlyle identified what the latter called a “stupendous Fourth Estate.”

Wrote William Thackeray: “Of the Corporation of the Goosequill — of the Press … of the fourth estate. … There she is — the great engine — she never sleeps. She has...

Fri, 12/04/2015 - 11:36
Connecticut Citizens Defense League

Groton, CT -(AmmoLand.com)- The Connecticut Citizens Defense League (The state’s largest grass-roots gun rights group) is speaking out against calls for more gun control made by elected officials from Connecticut.”

Comment from CCDL President Scott Wilson:

“Once again we have Governor Malloy spouting off for more gun control before any facts are out about who may have committed the atrocity in San Bernadino and why they committed it. Once again we also have Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty, Senator Chris Murphy and Senator Richard Blumenthal parroting calls for more gun control out of their playbook. It is obvious that in their minds, law abiding citizens of the United States would be better off walking around completely defenseless with no means to protect themselves.”

“Questions Need to Be Asked” as Hunting Act Lawsuit Collapses

Countryside Alliance

London, UK -(AmmoLand.com)- The League Against Cruel Sports’ (LACS) private prosecution under the Hunting Act against six members of the Lamerton Hunt collapsed this morning, three days into a scheduled 10-day trial at Newton Abbot Magistrates’ Court.

LACS withdrew all evidence following an application by the Lamerton’s barrister, Peter Glenser, to have expert witness Professor Stephen Harris removed from the proceedings. Professor Harris had revealed under cross examination that he had a close personal relationship with a LACS employee, and was also read an email which he himself had written in 2012 stating that it would be “very damaging” if the police knew of his relationship with LACS.

The court sought confirmation from absent LACS acting chief executive Rachel Newman, a qualified solicitor, that she had advised Professor Harris not to disclose the relationship with the LACS employee. Professor Harris had also...

President Obama Signs National Defense Authorization Act and More from the ISRA

Illinois State Rifle Association

Chatsworth, IL -(AmmoLand.com)- At last the President has signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This has several important provisions for gun owners.

Most important, there are thousands of 1911’s that will be released for sale through the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP). The past few months, I have received many phone calls from people who would love to own one of these historic firearms.

I still can’t tell you when these vintage 1911’s will be available. I can tell you that one of the things the CMP will require is a membership card from a CMP affiliate. The ISRA is the CMP state affiliate. So, if you would like to purchase one of these famed firearms, join the Illinois State Rifle Association.

Also included in the NDAA is a prohibition on the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) that prevents them from banning traditional ammunition....
