AZ Gun Sales At Record Pace

Guns are selling at a record pace this year at sporting-goods stores and specialty shops in Arizona, creating millions of dollars in revenue for retailers.

The ability to carry a concealed weapon without a permit, general apprehension and lingering concerns that the Obama administration could crack down on gun ownership are among the sales drivers.

In Arizona, it is likely that more than 200,000 new weapons will be put in buyers’ hands after background checks this year. That figure doesn’t include firearms purchased at gun shows and through private transactions. Such non-tracked sales are thought to account for 40 percent of all sales, adding about 150,000 guns purchased annually. The estimated sales total: about 350,000 guns per year.-[source]

Massachusetts & California Fed Judges On 2A

A Federal Magistrate Judge in Massachusetts just outdid the Brady Center in their ludicrous interpretation of the United States Supreme Court Heller decision which declared that we have an individual, fundamental enumerated Constitutional right to carry a weapon for the purpose of self defense.

On October 14th, Judge Marrianne B. Bowler of Massachusetts ruled that the Second Amendment does not preclude laws or actions which are not “…tantamount to an absolute restriction on plaintiff’s right to possess firearms in his home.”

The Brady Bunch and their cohorts had been claiming that the Heller decision only conferred a right to keep firearms in ones home. According to this Massachusetts judge, even that interpretation is overly broad.

On May 11, 1997 Townsend Police and Massachusetts State Police seized a number of weapons owned by Harry Yohe. Yohe sued and was awarded $7,500. Since then, for the past thirteen and a half years, he has been trying to get his firearms returned, which the police have refused to do. The police will not even provide a list of his property that was seized.-[source]
