Smart Guns–Dumb Lawsuits By David Codrea, © 2001

Reposted from: https://web.archive.org/web/20010520152923/http://www.keepandbeararms.com/information/XcIBViewItem.asp?ID=319 Part I- The New Battleground "New Orleans Aims Lawsuit at Gun Makers," declares the CNN.com headline. "We seek to recover damages...from the...sale of guns that are not safe," postures the Big Easy's mayor, Mark Morial. "If we can childproof medicine bottles, why can't we childproof guns?" sound-bites Dennis Henigan of the Center to Prevent Handgun Violence (CPHV). The answer is, we can– to a degree. But will they be worth a damn for defense if we do? "Recent efforts to sue firearms manufacturers based upon firearms that work as intended, is a drastic departure from nearly a century of settled products liability law," says Los Angeles-based liability attorney Steven A. Silver. "Attempts to hold firearms manufacturers liable will create two serious problems: first, they may be forced into including 'safety d...

OKLAHOMA PRIMARIES – OPEN, CLOSED, OR NONE AT ALL?

by Scott Jessen  (Received via email- reprinted with permission) OKLAHOMA PRIMARIES – OPEN, CLOSED, OR NONE AT ALL? Summary: Political Parties are private clubs . Primaries are taxpayer-funded elections where private clubs choose their representation in General Elections. So, members of Party A pay for Party B to choose their candidate and those not affiliated with any Party pay for them all. Instead of passing a taxpayer-funded Constitutional Amendment to force private clubs to allow non-members to vote in their internal selection process, why not adopt a system where the private clubs pay for their own processes?   Details: 1) “Political Party”: Britannica : “a group of persons organized to…exercise political power”   Essentially: Private clubs.   “.COM” and “.ORG” websites, not “.GOV”. ( https://democrats.org/ & https://www.gop.com/ ) 2) “Independent” Non-party-affiliated voter Chose to not join one of the private clubs   ...

Florida Gun Grab Betrayal Demands Examining ‘Perfect is Enemy of Good’ Excuse

Image
  Reposted from Aug 2, 2018 “True friend” FL Gov. Rick Scott appeases the gun-grabbers. ( FL.Gov – Photographer, Jesse Romimora ) “Hundreds of gun owners in Florida have been ordered to give up their guns under a new law that took effect after the deadly Parkland shooting in February, according to a report published Monday,”  Fox News reports . “Every petition filed under the order in Pinellas County has so far been granted by the judge… “In addition to confiscating guns, the law also raised the age to buy a rifle to 21 and established a three-day waiting period on gun purchases,” the report notes. What it does not address is the level of due process afforded citizens who have not been charged with, let alone convicted of any crimes of violence; how government can justify ignoring the right to keep and bear arms of citizens old enough to vote, marry, form legal contracts and to fight and die for their country; and how a prior restraint delay on the “law-abiding” will have any ...

Okeechobee officials who banned guns prior to hurricane may soon pay for their ‘error’

Image
 Copied and pasted from email:   After violating Florida's preemption statute, City of Okeechobee ignores warning from Florida Carry, Inc. The five-member Okeechobee, Florida city council and Police Chief Donald Hagan may each be forced to pay $5,000 personally – without using taxpayer dollars – for violating Florida’s powerful preemption statute, which only allows the state legislature to regulate firearms.   As previously reported ,  the city adopted an illegal ordinance shortly before Hurricane Helene made landfall, which banned the sale of guns and ammunition and prohibited firearm possession in public by anyone other than law enforcement or members of the military.    After learning of the civil rights violation,  Florida Carry, Inc.   sent a demand letter titled  Written Notice of Preemption Violation and Offer of Settlement , to the city council and Chief Hagan, warning the recipients they have violated Florida’s preemption statut...
