I'm still trying to overcome my disbelief that Sarah Brady would buy a sniper rifle.
I loved her gripe about the clerk who helped her speaking a bit too loudly
for her tastes as he filled out all the paperwork for the purchase.
Funny, she'd want everyone's gun purchases to be very public (or aborted)...
but her purchase needs "the right to privacy".

Rosie O'Donnell has a son? I didn't know a man could get that drunk.

LOL!!! He didn't have to. She adopted.

Heston said that his anti-gun liberal friends called and wanted to borrow a gun

Funny how, when things go to s**t and your life is threatened, being enlightened, liberal and gun free is no longer a priority.

He should have told his liberal buddies to go outside and start handing out the Benjamins to the rioters, while apologizing for LA's racially discriminatory police tactics. I'm sure the rioters would have been understanding.

Compare and contrast:

This past weekend, the NRA held their annual convention in Reno, Nevada. All those people... all those guns...

At the same time and at the other end of the state, there was a Hell's Angels gang shootout at a casino in Laughlin, Nevada.

So, who's the target of gun control? We have responsible, law-abiding citizens meeting in Reno, and outlaws meeting in Laughlin. Who got shot, where?

He didn't even mention that Sarah Brady apparently violated the state gun law, which bans buying a gun that you plan to give to someone else. Oops! Damn restrictive gun laws!

BURN HER!!!!!!!!!!

She used another tactic, she went out and bought a child.

It is not so much that they send a message of "don't do as I do, do as I say", as much as it is the typical ARROGANCE of liberals who think they can INTELLIGENTLY handle owning guns, while those poor lessors out there in middle America cannot.

I believe Sarah also violated federal law with her "strawman" purchase. However, as we know from other cases, BATF invokes the "criminal intent" clause, written into the law in invisible ink, to decline to prosecute leftists. Joe Blow just goes to jail.

I seem to remember somewhere that Steven Spielberg has the world's largest collection of automatic weapons. This is the same leftist that just digitally bowlderized his own movie, "ET", to change police revolvers ("only police should be allowed to have guns") into walkie-talkies.

They missed a few...Click Here

Michael Douglas, the Million Mom Activist, and members of Congress are on this list.

And at this link, UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan shows his hypocrisy.

Well, we know that it works. Just how many people have been bayoneted to death or killed with AW launched grenades lately?

As the quote was from a liberal paper, don't expect them to know a pump action shotgun from a Flatulator valve. BTW, it was a pump action shotgun and an excellent choice for self defence. Sharon Stone may be a hypocrite, but she isn't an idiot.

They could have put Steven Speilberg on the list who supports gun control despite his extensive personal collection of pre-ban sport utility rifles (AW for you antigunners).

CAMP GUNFREE.
A common sense and historically proven way to keep those dangerous and destructive GUNS out of YOUR life.
MEMBERSHIPS AVAILABLE NOW!
Details below

Concerned about the easy availability of guns in our society?

Alarmed about the "gun nuts" and other freedom wackos the government allows to run loose?

Wish the government would just repeal the Second Amendment and confiscate all the guns because you believe sensible people shouldn't suffer because of some idiotic notion about some antiquated “right?”

While we can't take the guns away from the people, we CAN take the people (or at least SOME of them) away from their guns.

At CAMP GUNFREE, we have created an atmosphere of near-total tranquility where you and your family will experience the benefits of a GUN FREE environment.


The unique main gate at Camp GunFree. Most arriving camp guests never see this view from their comfortable rail cars.

Each of our camps is a gated community designed to keep guns away from camp guests. Firmly enforced security measures ensure that these dangerous and destructive devices are kept outside. Each camp boasts 24 hour, 7 day a week sentries and state-of-the-art enclosure systems, guard dogs, trenches and surveillance equipment to absolutely GUARANTEE that no firearms enter the facility. Rigidly controlled access ensures that no guns can ever be smuggled in.

No cost has been spared to ensure that Camp GunFree remains gun free.

All camp members are given distinctive uniforms to distinguish them from any gun-toting barbarians who might attempt to evade our security measures. Each camp member is also assigned a distinctive ID number to ensure that only the right people are allowed within the camp.


Room and board are provided to each member in exchange for rewarding tasks designed to provide a sense of accomplishment and to demonstrate that large numbers of people CAN exist in a gun violence free community.

Camp members engaged in one of our many fun-filled organized work activities.


The current headlines prompt us to remind you that there has NEVER been a shooting by a student in any of the camp schools and we can GUARANTEE that there never will be!!

For more information, call 1-800-GUNFREE
