Yesterday, Wal-Mart shocked the firearms industry with an announcement they were joining the Mayors Against Illegal Guns coalition in signing that organization's Responsible Firearms Retailer Partnership, a ten-point agreement calling for a variety of controls in the sale of firearms. Those controls range from videotaping all firearms transactions and making those records available to law enforcement to an internal tracking system that would "flag" potential firearms purchasers who had bought firearms from Wal-Mart subsequently used in the commission of a crime. While industry officials are reeling from what they call a "blindside", retail observers confide the decision could reflect an intent to eventually jettison the entire firearms category from Wal-Mart's product mix. In today's edition of The Outdoor Wire, editor Jim Shepherd takes an in-depth look at the decision, the response, and the possible implications of the decision.

Obama Misfires On Concealed Carry INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY
Posted 4/4/2008
Gun Control: Barack Obama says he won't take folks' guns away as long as they're hunters. But when the hunted are his constituents, well, that's different: He opposes concealed carry and the right to self-defense. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read More: Election 2008 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There's something about an election that brings out the sportsman in a Democratic presidential candidate. Recall John Kerry's sudden fondness for hunting four years ago.
And speaking in Idaho earlier this year, Barack Obama told the crowd, "We got a lot of hunters in the state of Illinois, and I have no intention of taking away folks' guns." Except he does. In a 1996 questionnaire, Obama wrote that he "supported banning the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns." He says now that the survey was filled out by an aide who misrepresented his views. Yet his record since then is consistent with that view. Never mind that Illinois and the other 49 states have a lot of two-legged predators.
Illinois resident Hale DeMar was prosecuted by the town of Wilmette for using a handgun to defend his home in 2003. Wilmette had imposed a ban on the possession of handguns, in effect making the town a gun-free zone.
To correct the situation, several Illinois state legislators introduced SB 2165 to protect the right of self-defense for residents like DeMar. Obama voted against the bill.
That self-defense bill protecting the right to bear arms for law-abiding citizens such as DeMar passed the Illinois state Senate and was enacted into law over the governor's veto (and Obama's opposition).
It's no surprise, then, that Sen. Obama has come out in opposition to concealed-carry laws. In anticipation of an April 16 debate in Philadelphia on the anniversary of the Virginia Tech shootings, Obama told the Pittsburgh Tribune: "I am not in favor of concealed weapons. I think that creates a potential atmosphere where more innocent people could (get shot during) altercations."
According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, 65.7% of the U.S. population lives in the 39 right-to-carry states, and there's no indication such laws have turned our neighborhoods into the O.K. Corral. To the contrary, all the stats we've seen show a steep decline in murders and violent crimes after a state adopts a right-to-carry law.
Virginia is one of those states, but the only one who had the right to carry last April 16 was Seung-Hui Cho. He shot 32 people to death on a Virginia Tech campus that had declared itself gun-free.
One wonders if Cho would have even walked on campus with a gun if he knew his victims would be able to defend themselves. Or how the story would have been different had professor Liviu Librescu, a Holocaust survivor who lost his life barricading a classroom door so his students could escape, had been able to fire back.
On the subject of the total ban on gun ownership in the District of Columbia, a Second Amendment case before the U.S. Supreme Court, the Nov. 23 Chicago Tribune said Obama believes in the right of local communities to enact common sense laws to combat violence and save lives. Obama believes the D.C. handgun law is constitutional.
As pointed out by John Lott, senior research scientist at the University of Maryland, the D.C. murder rate fell three times faster than surrounding Maryland and Virginia in the five years before the 1977 ban, but rose nearly four times faster in the five years afterward. Since 1977, there has been only one year (1985) when the D.C. murder rate was lower than in 1976.
Obama's Web site says: "He will protect the rights of hunters and other law-abiding Americans to purchase, own, transport and use guns for the purposes of hunting and target shooting" (emphasis ours).
Not, apparently, for you to protect your wife and children. |

Black legislators walk out of Pa. House, protesting absence of votes on gun control
9:11 a.m. ET, Thurs., Dec. 6, 2007
HARRISBURG, Pa. - Black lawmakers from the state's urban areas, frustrated in their efforts to get a vote on gun control measures, walked out of a House session in protest Wednesday.
A majority of members of the House Legislative Black Caucus, all Democrats, are from Philadelphia, where 369 people were killed this year through Monday. About 80 percent of the deaths involved handguns.
"It's time for our colleagues on both sides of the aisle to understand that this issue, when it comes to saving lives in our various districts, is extremely important to us," said Rep. Thaddeus Kirkland, the caucus chairman.
Sixteen lawmakers walked out, Kirkland said. They didn't plan to return Wednesday, he said, and it was unclear how long the walkout would last.
A spokesman for Majority Leader Bill DeWeese, a Democrat, declined to comment. Democrats control the House by a single vote.
Gun bills are always contentious in the Legislature, where many Democrats represent rural areas with strong hunting constituencies and the National Rifle Association has friends among both parties' leadership.
"I think there's no appetite to do what they want to do, as far as passing additional restrictions on firearms to deal with Philadelphia," NRA lobbyist John Hohenwarter said.

Officials lead rally for gun control |
| HARRISBURG (AP) —Gov. Ed Rendell, standing alongside mayors and police officers from across Pennsylvania, urged action Monday on gun-control legislation that is stalled in the General Assembly.Rendell said polls indicate majorities of Pennsylvanians favor several proposals, including limiting handgun purchases to one per month and requiring owners to report whenever guns are lost or stolen.“No more ceremonies, no more resolutions,” Rendell said during a rally at the state Capitol. “It’s time to put your rear end on the line and be counted.”The governor defended the measures as being aimed at protecting police officers and said they are not detrimental to hunters or the state’s hunting and firearms tradition. National Rifle Association lobbyist John Hohenwarter called it “a made-for-TV rally” that obscured larger problems with Philadelphia’s impoverished schools, outstanding criminal warrants and police staffing.“You can put together any kind of push poll to get whatever result you want,” he said. “Evidently the polling is off when you have the majority of members of the General Assembly opposing those types of legislation.”The rally was organized by CeaseFire PA, a group backing stricter gun-control laws. Phil Goldsmith, the group’s president, said its supporters will not go away “until the General Assembly enacts changes in our handgun laws to make our communities safer.”Attending the rally were a few dozen uniformed police officers, state lawmakers drawn mostly from the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh areas and the mayors of Philadelphia, Allentown, Bethlehem, Carlisle, Pottsville and Wilkes-Barre.“This is not the ’40s and the ’50s or even the ’60s,” said Philadelphia Mayor John Street. “We are in a whole new century, and doesn’t it make sense that we should modernize our gun laws?”Gun legislation is about as politically sensitive as topics get in the General Assembly, where leaders of both parties are sympathetic to the NRA and many rank-and-file Democrats hail from regions where Second Amendment rights are closely guarded. |
