Here is one of the hypocrites trying to control our gun rights. This came in an email so I'm not sure how factual it is.
Senator
R.C. Soles (D - NC) Long time Anti-Gun
Advocate State Senator R.C. Soles, 74, shot one of two intruders at his home
just outside Tabor City, N.C. about 5 p.m. Sunday, the prosecutor for the
politician's home county said.
The intruder, Kyle
Blackburn, was taken to a South Carolina hospital, but the injuries were not
reported
to be life-threatening, according to Rex Gore, district attorney for
Columbus, Bladen and Brunswick counties.
The State Bureau of
Investigation and Columbus County Sheriff's Department are investigating the
shooting, Gore said. Soles, who was not arrested, declined to discuss the
incident Sunday evening.
"I am not in a
position to talk to you," Soles said by telephone. "I'm right in the middle of
an investigation."
The Senator, who has
made a career of
being against gun ownership for the general public, didn't
hesitate to defend himself with his own gun when he believed he was in immediate
danger and he was the victim.
In typical
hypocritical liberal fashion, the "Do as I say and not as I do" Anti-Gun
Activist Lawmaker picked up his gun and took action in what apparently was a
self-defense shooting.
Why hypocritical you
may ask? It is because his long legislative record shows that the actions that
he took to protect his family, his own response to a dangerous life threatening
situation, are actions that he feels ordinary citizens should
not have if
they were faced with an identical situation.
It has prompted some
to ask if the Senator believes his life and personal safety is more valuable
than yours or mine.
But, this is to be
expected from those who believe they can run our lives, raise our kids, and
protect our families better than we can.

Hello Sterling, It is easy to see if the emails you receive are factual or not by a little googling. The one you posted apparently was factual in that the shooting happened, but by a very pro gun man. http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/soles.asp I hope that helps. You will need to find another argument. Lone |

Lone, maybe you should read a bit farther. I googled and about 8 out of 10 returns show him as an anti-gun Senator. He is also well known to the citizens here in NC as anti-gun.
Also, if it's not your first visit to Snopes, you know they never print anything but liberal garbage. If it doesn't fit their agenda, they don't print it.

I picked up a new Remington R-15 yesterday at Adventure Outdoors yesterday. I was a wondering if I needed to set it up for shooting or leave it in the box and bury it in the walls of the house just in case. I wanted it for a pig gun, but just wondering what the government will do for it.

I used to sell reloading supplies at gun shows and such. Every now and then someone will ask me about buying guns. I always recommend to never buy from a dealer due to the paperwork. they WILL use that against you and come for the guns. then they'll come back for you. -js

that's why i'm against the universal background checks too. the info in current checks was not supposed to be kept. now we find that much has been for "statistical" purposes. the records from the dealers have to be kept for years and are available to the ATF on demand.
we already have de facto registration if you buy from a dealer and the universal background checks will seal the deal.

"Nay, it [this constitution of government] must perish, if there be not that vital spirit in the people, which alone can nourish, sustain, and direct all its movements. It is in vain, that statesmen shall form plans of government, in which the beauty and harmony of a republic shall be embodied in visible order, shall be built up on solid substructions, and adorned by every useful ornament, if the inhabitants suffer the silent power of time to dilapidate its walls, or crumble its massy supporters into dust; if the assaults from without are never resisted, and the rottenness and mining from within are never guarded against. Who can preserve the rights and liberties of the people, when they shall be abandoned by themselves? Who shall keep watch in the temple, when the watchmen sleep at their posts? Who shall call upon the people to redeem their possessions, and revive the republic, when their own hands have deliberately and corruptly surrendered them to the oppressor, and have built the prisons, or dug the graves of their own friends?
– Justice Joseph Story, "Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States," Volume II, Chapter XIII: Mode of Passing Laws, Sections 900-901, pp. 364 (1833)

That's right. But then, universal background checks would be a "reasonable" gun law, wouldn't it? Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Amin, and countless other tyrants would agree. -js |

I've been telling people whenever I'm asked: "why do you NEED X# rounds?" That: "'To each according to his needs' is a tenet of Marxism, and I can have things within my rights because I WANT them." How you assess what you need is entirely your business and no one is owed an answer to that aggravating question.

Yea, my extreme liberal brother-in-law uses Snopes to backup the liberal stuff he gets off MSMBC. |
