SC Sheriff Schools CNN’s Costello On The Constitution
Kudos to Charleston County Sheriff Al Cannon for refusing to enforce federal gun
laws he feels are unconstitutional and for attempting to educate CNN’s Carol
Costello on the United States Constitution. Carol would have absolved a lot of good Nazis for "just following orders."

A Vatican Spokesman's Misguided Statement on Gun Control
From CatholicCulture.org
By Philip F. Lawler
By Philip F. Lawler
Let’s make something clear right away. Pope Benedict has not endorsed
the Obama administration’s gun-control plans. The Pope has said nothing
on the subject. But Father Federico Lombardi, the director of the
Vatican press office—has released a statement on gun control,
in his weekly editorial commentary for Vatican Radio. Inevitably his
editorial will be portrayed by careless reporters as an official
statement of the Vatican’s position. It is not; Father Lombardi does not
set policy for the Vatican, or make authoritative statements for the
Catholic Church.

Rep. Charlie Rangel on Guns: ‘Some of the Southern Areas Have Cultures that We Have to Overcome’
(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.),
speaking on “MSNBC Live” on Jan. 16 said that “some of the southern
areas have cultures that we have to overcome” when it comes to gun
control.
Rangel was asked by anchor Thomas Roberts whether new gun control
measures passed in New York State should serve as models for other
states:
“If you’re proud of what New York has done, obviously there is not
going to be any perfect policy or perfect law that everybody is going
to agree on from both sides saying that this is key perfection but do
you think that New York, and what has been done in this state, could be
used as a role model for other states that would like to enact
something of New York’s model?”
Rangel responded by saying: “Well I hope so. New York is a little
different and more progressive in a lot of areas than some other states
and some of the southern areas have cultures that we have to overcome.”
He added: “But we do have a model set of what Republicans and Democrats, Conservatives and Liberals have come together and put the party labels behind them and come forward with something that says ‘Hey, we may disagree, but one thing is clear that we have to do something' and that’s exactly what they have done.’”
Last week, New York State passed stricter gun control measures in
response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting on Dec. 14. The
new law calls for an expanded assault weapons ban, and a new
registration of already owned semi-automatic weapons.
The new law also calls for a limit of seven rounds on magazine clips
and for mental health and law enforcement officials to be informed when
it is believed that a patient is likely to be a danger to themselves
or others.
The bill passed the New York State Senate by a vote of 43-18 and the
Assembly by a vote of 104-43. Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the bill
into law on Jan 15.

The Second Amendment - Back to First Principles
Growing tyranny under the Obama regime, executive orders that bypass the Congress and Constitution, vast bureaucracies like Homeland Security and its para-military population control agencies, and the sweeping away of God-given rights that have been recognized and protected since the Anglo-Saxon kings, have given renewed importance to the Second Amendment. Americans know, like the founding fathers knew, that if freedom is to prevail, there must be a balance between the rights of men and the ambitions of government.
Let's be honest about the gun buying frenzy of recent years. Conservatives have a patriotic duty to arm themselves. Their loyalty is and must always be to country, not to the domestic enemies that control its government.
America's Coming Gun War
By Patrick J. Buchanan
Eight days after the massacre of 20 first-graders at Sandy Hook Elementary, where each child was shot with a Bushmaster .223, The Nation's Gun Show, the biggest east of the Mississippi, opened.
"A line already snaked around the building shortly after the three-day event began at 3 p.m., and the parking lot was jammed" at the Dulles Expo Center in Chantilly, Va., wrote Justin Jouvenal of The Washington Post:
