| The National Rifle Association has gained more than 100,000 new members in the last 18 days, the organization told POLITICO’s Playbook on Thursday. The number of paid new members jumped from 4.1 million to 4.2 million in that time frame. (Snip) “We are willing to talk to policymakers about any reasonable proposals and plans,” an NRA official said in the Playbook report, regarding the upcoming meeting with Biden. “However, the NRA is hearing not just from Beltway elites and the chattering class, but real Americans all over the country that are hoping the NRA is not going to compromise

Renewed my NRA membership last month, just recently joined the New York State Rifle & Pisol (NYSRPA) the other day, and provided a significant donation in addition to both.
A number of Second Amendment and firearm specific forums have been encouraging their members to join the NYSRPA - even if they do not live in NY, simply because this place is the front lines in the assault on our liberty and our Constitutionally protected rights.
I would strongly encourage anyone who believes in what our Founders established and sought to preserve 238 years ago to join the NRA (if they haven´t already) and to join the NYSRPA.
I know we have the fight of our lives on our hands here in New york State, but I am awe-struck at the number of people in "free-states" who have joined the NYSRPA over the past 48 hours to help us in our fight. Your support is needed and appreciated.

I have a reasonable proposal. The mass murders are seeking their 15 minutes of fame. The news media obliges with their 24/7 coverage, usually reporting misinformation, such identifying the wrong person after doing a google search. So, I have some commonsense proposals.
1. A cooling off period for the news-media. They have to wait 72 hours before reporting on a mass murder. This will allow sufficient time to gather actual facts.
2. A ban on high volume mass murder reporting. Each media outlet should be limited to one story per incident per month. No media outlet needs to generate 100s of inaccurate news reports each day about mass murders.
3. All journalist reporting on mass murders must take test to receive a license. The test would require the reporter to show a basic understanding about firearms, close quarter combat and show knowledge of ALL federal, state and local firearms laws and regulations. This is to guarantee accuracy in their news reports.

W C Fields once said it was a woman who drove him to drink. He then said he wished he could find her so he could thank her.
Bill Clinton forced me to take a life membership in the NRA when he was doing something stupid with gun laws. I want to personally thank him for that. Only good thing he ever did. I´m so proud he is "Father of the Year".

After the FBI rescheduled another postponed briefing on the Boston Marathon Massacre for 8 p.m. on Wednesday night -- and then canceled that one, too -- that was it. (Snip) Came the dawn I heard that terrorism expert Steven Emerson had dropped a bombshell Wednesday night on Sean Hannity´s Fox News program. Emerson reported that Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi, the Saudi national first identified as a "person of interest" and then downgraded, like a tropical storm, to "witness," would be deported from the United States "on national security grounds." This, Emerson added, "is very unusual."

As Independence Day celebrations were winding down Tuesday night, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu made a guest appearance on Channel 2´s left-wing satire show Eretz Nehederet. One of the final questions that the show´s host Eyal Kitzis asked the premier was how he would like to be remembered after he leaves office. Netanyahu thought a moment and said, "I´d like to be remembered as the leader who preserved Israel´s security." (Snip) Why is he aiming so low? And yet, the studio audience reacted to Netanyahu´s modest goal with a thunderclap of applause.

The Boy Scouts of America on Friday moved to partially lift its long-standing ban on gays, with a decision that would allow openly gay youth members but continue to bar gay adults in one of the largest youth serving organizations in America. If the resolution is approved in a nationwide vote in May, "no youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone," Deron Smith, the organization´s spokesman, told Reuters. The report found religious groups linked to the Scouts were concerned with homosexual adult leaders not with youth

There are numerous lessons to take away from the Marathon Massacre, but one of these is that it’s time to rethink our immigration policy, especially when it comes to refugees. The Tsarnaevs came to the United States as refugees. And like so many other Muslim refugees, they brought terror to our shores. Tamerlan fled Chechnya with his family because of the conflict in the early 90s, and lived for years in Kazakhstan before getting to the United States as a refugee. There are basic solutions to Islamic terrorism. One of the most basic such solutions is to stop bringing

Nothing to see here. An undemocratic multinational organization with unlimited power seeking to quash press criticism through covert means is nothing to worry about. (Snip) Angered by the British media’s coverage of Brussels, the European Commission says it wants to be a “moral compass” against press misconduct, seeking new national and Europe-wide regulatory powers over journalists. The EU has spent £2.3?million on the previously unpublicised “Mediadem” project to “reclaim a free and independent media”. In a “policy brief” co-authored by its lead British researcher, Rachael Craufurd Smith, Mediadem says it is “simplistic” to “see state influence as inherently stifling”.

Once-doubted tourniquet seen

NEW YORK — As people lay badly bleeding in the smoke of the Boston Marathon bombings, rescuers immediately turned to a millennia-old medical device to save their lives — the tourniquet. Using belts, shirts and other materials, they tied off bleeding limbs in fast-acting bids to prevent major blood loss, shock and death. Such fast work no doubt saved many lives, doctors at Boston area hospitals said. So it´s interesting to note that if this had happened a decade ago, many emergency responders might have avoided the tourniquet. As recently as the early 2000s, the tourniquet was still enmeshed

The United States has always been a nation of immigrants, at our best when welcoming to our shores those who "yearn to breathe free." (Snip) Right now there are some four million people waiting in other countries, trying to come to America lawfully. While these would-be immigrants languish in our broken system, a bipartisan "Gang of Eight" senators unveiled their proposals Tuesday for a massive, comprehensive immigration bill, which was written and debated behind closed doors. Those in the room, including big business, big labor, and representatives of unauthorized immigrants, will all benefit in various ways from legislated amnesty.

Frequent AT contributor Jack Cashill has produced a great piece at WND about the Martin/Zimmerman fiasco and the work that the "Rag Tag Bunch of Conservative Misfits" at The Conservative Treehouse has done to uncover the truth about "Trayvon." Of the "Treepers," Mr. Cashill says: ... th[os]e dogged researchers ... have literally done more good work on the Martin case than all the newsrooms in America combined. It seems that "Trayvon" should have been on trial in Miami rather than enjoying his "suspension" in Sanford the night George Zimmerman killed him in self-defense.

In brief remarks to the nation yesterday on the Boston Marathon bombings, President Obama said that “we all have a part to play in alerting authorities. If you see something suspicious, speak up.” (Snip) Law enforcement, big-city mayors, and security experts all echoed that famous post-terrorism refrain: “If you see something, say something.” But who really means it? In post-9/11 America, the truth is that our politically correct guardians only want you to see, say, or do something if it can’t be construed by grievance-mongers as racist, sexist, Islamophobic, homophobic, nativist or any other “-ist” or “-ic.”

The discouraging March employment report, with a job increase of only 88,000, raises questions well beyond the dreary state of today’s labor market. Prolonged high unemployment may be silently shredding the social fabric in ways that last for decades. Even before the Great Recession, men with a high school diploma or less faced lower wages and a harder time finding work. This made them less attractive as husbands, contributing to the growth of single-parent families. Stubbornly high unemployment almost certainly aggravates these destructive trends. It’s hard to overstate the breakdown of marriage and the rise of single-parent families.

Further to Andy’s and Shannen’s notes on abortion and language, I see that even those commentators tipping a belated toe into the sewage of the Gosnell trial still can’t bring themselves to address what the guy did. Howard Kurtz mentioned it on CNN yesterday – except that, in one crucial sense, he didn’t: (Snip) He says “Kermit Gosnell is on trial for allegedly running a house of horrors, storing all kinds of mutilated fetuses, some of which were brutally killed.” [Emphasis added.] Fetuses?

Last Friday, the terminally sophomoric Rachel Maddow turned her adolescent sarcasm on the Republican National Committee for seeking advice from Dick Cheney, Hugh Hewitt and David Horowitz. How absurd it was she cackled. “I thought I was being punked.” In regard to Frontpage editor Horowitz, she was aroused by the fact that the RNC invited him to keynote their conference at the Reagan library (as it happens that very Friday) to advise them on how to persuade minorities that their best interests were served by voting against Democrats, remarks, by the way, that got a standing ovation.

We are still speculating about virtually everything right now, but I feel as though I need to explain why I find the quick and easy conversation about Muslims being radicalized in America to be so illogical and laced with bigotry. Of course, there is a global violent jihadist movement, loosely organized, that wants to recruit young men to influence policies at home and abroad and perhaps usher in the global caliphate. That ideology motivates some Muslims to kill innocent people.But you´re allowed to be a radical Muslim in America.

So once again, no good deed goes unpunished. Uncle Sam lets another bunch of leeching future terrorists into the country who have absolutely no business being here, gives them “asylum,” making them immediately eligible for welfare, and this is the thanks we get? They turn into mass murderers. We bring in thousands of Muslims from a primitive society that has been battling Christians for centuries, and put them into a peaceful Christian society — what could possible go wrong? This is what I was thinking about yesterday, with much of the city under what amounted to martial law.

Federal law enforcement officials are actively investigating the possibility that the Boston bombers were known to the government’s terror-trackers, MailOnline understands. Any inquiry into the marathon bombing will look into whether agents could have taken action – but didn’t – to prevent the Tsarnaev brothers from obtaining the explosives that killed 3 and wounded 173 others. CBS News reported Friday evening that two years ago, the FBI interviewed the elder brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, who was killed in Thursday night´s dramatic shootout. The feds reportedly spoke to him at the request of an unspecified foreign government, but couldn´t

The Bears center, who was picked No. 1 overall in the recent WNBA Draft (to the Phoenix Mercury) and is considered by many to be an all-time great in women’s college basketball, casually explained her sexual orientation to Sports Illustrated. Griner was asked by SI’s Maggie Gray on the difference between men’s and women’s sports when it comes to acceptance of sexual orientation; why the WNBA has been able to often embrace many lesbians within their sport, while male sports in America still waits on its first publicly gay player.
