Message To Bob Costas: Stick To Sports; FBI Report: Hands + Feet More Dangerous Than Firearms; Germany To Register Gun Owners On International Registry; Shooting Better In Cold Weather

Bob Costas: Stick To Reporting On Sports.

Gun owners have a simple message to Bob Costas: Stick to sports.

At last Sunday's NFL game between the Eagles and Cowboys, Bob Costas decided to do a commentary about Kansas City Chief's linebacker, Jovan Belcher, murdering his wife then shooting himself. Costas, like anyone else, has the right to his opinion. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the right to his own facts.

As most anti-gun activists do after such tragedies, Costas decided to embrace the easiest answer because it made him feel more comfortable. Once again, he placed blame on the firearm without knowing any facts in the case (Reports have surfaced recently that this player had a number of personal issues including alcohol and pill use in addition to debilitating head injuries).

Greg Gutfeld of The Five on Fox News said it best in my opinion: "So what is Costas saying? He's talking about a total gun ban, which makes him a hypocritical buffoon, because he spends most of his life wandering in and out of New York buildings where he is flanked by people who are armed...It really wasn't about the tragedy. It's about scoring points with other people in the media."

Gutfeld was right on target.


FBI Crime Report

In the recent FBI report, you are more likely to be killed by hands and feet than by most firearms.  In fact, the FBI reported the total number of by hands and feet in 2011 exceeded the total number of murders by shotgun and rifle.

Just last week, the State of VA reported firearm sales increased by 63% while violent crime decreased by 24%.


Germany To Register Gun Owners On International Registry

In two years, Germany will launch a registry of legal gun owners. This is in response to a mandate by the EU (European Union).

This will be a centralized international registry of legal gun owners. Nazis had a similar law in 1938. It was called The Nazi Weapons Law of 1938. Of course, we know what happened to 6 million Jews after they were disarmed in 1938.

Shooting Better In Cold Weather

In addition to hunters, who would know better on how to shoot well in the cold? Leave it to Olympic biathletes to offer some great advice to cold weather hunters. It well known that cold weather affects accuracy of your rifle. Biathletes offer the following advice:

• Test your ammo in cold weather.
• Set your ammo and rifle outside in the cold before firing. Your firearm gear also need to be acclamated to the cold weather.
• Make sure your gun barrel is clean.
• Make sure you use the right kind of lubricant for cold weather.

NRA Endorses Romney/Ryan; Front Sight Firearms Training Institute; Things Gun Guys & Gals Never Say

The National Rifle Association Endorses Romney/Ryan


Late last week, The National Rifle Association's Political Victory Fund endorsed both Mitt Romney for President and Paul Ryan for Vice President.

Pres. Obama appointed two anti-gun nominees to the Supreme Court. In addition, the Obama administration worked with the UN on the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. Both actions undermine Second Amendment rights. Pres. Obama has a long history of supporting legislation to restrict gun rights. For example, as a state legislator, he opposed a law to protect people who use a gun in their own home in self-defense. He supported a ban on the manufacture, sale and possession of all handguns. He also supported a 500% increase in federal taxes on guns and ammunition.

2nd Amendment Warriors Endorses Romney and Ryan; NRA-ILA Respond To Federal Ammo Purchases; Israel's Female Warriors

"I support the Second Amendment as one of the most basic and fundamental rights of every American."...Mitt Romney

While some may argue and even question Mitt Romney's record on the Second Amendment especially when he was governor of Massachusetts, the fact is he's been a life-long supporter of the Second Amendment. He also chose Paul Ryan as his running mate. Ryan has been a life-long supporter of gun rights as well as an avid hunter.

Therefore, it's a no-brainer on the part of 2nd Amendment Warriors to officially endorse the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan ticket for President and Vice-President of the United States.


NRA-ILA Respond To Federal Ammo Purchases


In the last several weeks, the Internet has been full of rumors regarding the large purchases of ammunition by federal agencies. In short, the NRA-ILA wants gun owners to relax.

As both organizations point out, much of the misinformation is from people who know little about the functions carried out by many of those federal agencies.

For example, the Social Security Administration has 295 special agents who combat Social Security fraud that cost taxpayers billions each year. The 174,000 rounds of pistol ammunition amounts to just under 600 rounds per agent for training, mandatory qualification shooting and for use on duty.

Regarding the other federal agencies, U.S. Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (D-GA) and a pro-Second Amendment advocate explained taking the number of federal agencies (ICE, Secret Service, , etc. in addition to the many guards that protect many federal buildings), you learn that 450 million rounds over a 5 year period is not that large of an order.

Regarding the use of hollow-point ammunition, they are the defensive ammunition of choice for federal agencies, local and state law enforcement agencies. In addition, federal agents normally train and qualify with their duty ammunition.

Why Iran Might Re-Consider Taking On Israel


A week does not go by when Iran does not threaten Israel. However, if I were Iranian, I'd think twice. But they should not only be concerned about the Israeli Defense Forces, they should be concerned about Israel's female warriors, both civilian and military. The images below clearly prove this claim:

Getting The Record Straight About Gun Ownerships & The 2nd Amendment

After tragic incidents like the one in Aurora, Colorado, last week; the debate about gun ownership becomes a hot topic. It's expected and welcomed. So let's talk the talk.

• Gun Safety Tip #1: Carry One
• In a survey by Rasmussen of 1000 adults from July 20-21, 2012, found 51% of Americans believe the U.S. does NOT need stricter gun control laws.
• Chicago has some of the strictest guns laws in the country. Switzerland is loaded with people who own guns. Guess which region has more crime?
• Criminals prefer unarmed victims. Dictators prefer unarmed citizens.
