SAF SAYS D.C. CIRCUIT DENIAL ON RE-HEARING OF PARKER CASE WAS RIGHT
http://saf.org/viewpr-new.asp?id=225
For Immediate Release: 5/8/2007
BELLEVUE, WA – This morning’s decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia to deny a petition from the District of Columbia for a hearing of Parker v. District of Columbia before the full court was “right and proper,” said Alan M. Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment Foundation.
“This is a strong signal that the D.C. Court of Appeals, which is the second most powerful court in the country, feels the original ruling by Senior Judge Laurence H. Silberman is solid,” Gottlieb stated. “It is now up to the district to accept the ruling and begin the process of licensing handguns to be kept legally in district residences, or to appeal the case to the Supreme Court.”
A win for the gun owners, but we can not drop our efforts, or let our guard down.

Mythology 101
Mythology 101

Assault weapons with large capacity magazines are capable of spraying thousands of rounds a second.
First off male cats spray, NOT GUNS, water hoses spray, NOT GUNS, fear mongering anti-gunners spray out there asses, NOT GUNS. I know of no assault weapon that is used today that can put out thousands of rounds a second. The more bullets that a gun puts out per minute makes for less accuracy, a hand held weapon using full auto most times results in some loss of control of the weapon by the shooter and reduces the effectiveness if the weapon.
M-16a1 has a cycle rate of 650-750 rounds per-minute, this is dependent on a continuous feed of ammo, which the M-16a1 is not designed to do. One must manually replace each magazine with another taking up time. A best guestamate of the fire rate of a M-16a1 under ideal conditions and a real good shooter is about 300-400 rounds a minute. This is a far cry from the thousands of rounds a second that most fear mongering anti-gunners spray out there asses.
The Ingram M11 in 9mm has one of the highest cycle rates coming in at a rough 1200 rounds a minute. This again is calculated on a continuous feed of ammo, which this weapon is not designed to do either. A conservative estimate is around 500 rounds a minute due to the operator having to change magazines after every 30 rounds.
A good site on the cycle rates of deferent supposed assault weapons is here.

Crime in England
The next time someone tells you England has less crime then the U.S. make them read this article

About Assault Weapons
Very good video for the uninformed about Assault Weapons

Some facts.
Motorized vehicles are the most controlled things in America. We license the drivers after they study and test showing an aptitude for safe driving. But yet some 50,000 people are killed each year in America in auto accidents and 2+ million are permantly maimed or crippled. Roughly 65% or those killed were due to drinking/drugs and driving.
Contraire to popular opinion no one is guaranteed the right to drive under the constitution or even own a car. So I say take away all autos sense they evidently cause a hell of a lot more deaths each year then Guns do. You can walk or ride a horse.
The use of a gun to stop crime in America is 1.6-2.5 million times a year.80% of the crimes were of a violent nature with the possibility of severe injury and or death. If guns are banned then we can convert it to a form of genocide.
In the state of Kentucky we have issued over 300,000 Carry Concealed Weapons permits and have yet to have our streets run red with blood. There are no gunfights at the OK coral for the anti-gunners to point at and say see we told you so.
Out of 80 million gun owners in the U.S. they account for over 125 million known guns that is around 1.5 guns per person. There are a number of guns that are unaccounted for in the U.S.
80 million gun owners counts for close to 65% of legal voters, but yet cannot agree on who should be in congress and the Presidency.
Close to 20% will give up their guns without even a bad word being said if the Government bans ownership of them. Still leaving a citizen army of +/- 64 million.
Of the 64 million gun owners left, well over 20 million will submit to search and seizure of weapons but may voice opposition to the illegal action. Leaving 44 million to fight the tyrannies of our Government. 44 million gun owners resisting, will be one hell of an army to face.
Contrary to popular mythology 85-91% of the rank and file law enforcement does not support Gun control to include the assault weapons ban.
The Senate, The House, nor Congress has any given authority by our Constitution to ban the private ownership, purchase, use, or selling of any firearms. However they may legally tax them and can restrict the importation of weapons.
The last assault weapons ban was illegal, but people did not stand up to them and demand they repeal the law.
Assault weapons only account for 2% of the guns confiscated by L.E.A.’s in the U.S.
Less then .01% of crime in the U.S. actually is committed with Assault weapons.
Banning private ownership of guns has lead to Genocide and a suppression of personal freedoms in such nations as Darfur, Uganda, The Congo republic, and other African nations, Sudan, Ethiopia, Chad, Cote d’Ivoire, Nigeria, Burundi. Well hell just look for yourself.
