GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?
Wow, Glad she and cat are ok.
I support your intentions and hope they are successful.
I have never believed "warning Shots" were wise or should even be legal and this is precisely the reason why.

BlueTiki, I really don't believe the bullet went under her keyboard, could you post a picture of her in a bikini to prove it?

When I got married I moved into a place that had about 30 units in it. The walls were paper thin and I could hear everything going on, people fighting, fucking, laughing all kinds of crap. I called it "the anthill" I hope justice is swift and just.

Oakland, California

The National Rifle Association and its state chapter, the California Rifle and Pistol Association, are threatening to sue the Oakland City Council to prevent implementation of new firearms safety laws.

Attorneys for the NRA and the CRPA notified the Oakland City Council in two separate letters dated January 4 that they intend to file lawsuits to stop implementation of the new laws. One would require firearms in people's homes to be secured in a locked container, or disabled with a trigger lock, while the other involves a citywide ban on gun magazines that can hold ten or more cartridges.

The Oakland City Council approved both laws in early January. Councilmembers also approved a new law that prohibits storage of unsecured firearms in vehicles parked on public streets.

"Adoption of such an extreme and unconstitutional law will result in litigation against the City to enjoin enforcement and have it declared invalid," attorneys for the gun lobbying organizations wrote in one of the letters sent to the council. The pro-gun groups argue that both laws infringe on gun owner's Second Amendment rights, and that both are preempted by state laws.

Councilmember Anne Campbell Washington, co-author of the laws banning high capacity gun magazines and the home gun storage rules, said she is confident that the new laws are constitutional and enforceable.

"We cannot be held hostage by gun radicals," Campbell Washington wrote in an email to the Express. "Not only do recent court decisions clearly support the power of municipalities to institute commonsense regulations regarding firearms, but responsible gun owners agree with these commonsense regulations."

Mark Selmi, the chief public affairs officer with Michel & Associates, the law firm representing the NRA and CRPA, said that the pro-gun groups didn't take a position on the new city law that requires firearms stored in unattended vehicles parked on public streets to be secured. Regarding the other two new gun control measures, he said he could not comment on potential litigation.

=============================================

I don't believe the NRA and CRPA have a legal leg to stand on and won't be surprised if the threat to sue never converts into action.

None of the new Oakland laws infringe on individuals' right to bear arms, in my opinion, and city laws often expand/exceed state laws (this I live first-hand).

Deadly Selfies

A 43-year-old man has died after authorities say he accidentally shot himself in the face while taking selfies.

The Skagit Valley Herald reports the man and his girlfriend were photographing themselves with the weapon on Sunday at a residence when he shot himself.

Skagit County Sheriff's Office Patrol Chief Chad Clark says the woman reported that she and the man had taken photos with the gun several times that day and that the man had loaded and unloaded bullets multiple times. Clark says a bullet apparently remained in the gun the final time he fired.

Yeah, I'm not glad when anyone dies like that -- but I'm not concerned about trying to prevent aduts from killing themselves (using guns or any other means) by choice or idiocy either.

For some reason, I really want to see the selfies the geniuses took.

Bet they're to die for. 50

I don't get the appeal of posing with a gun unless they want to be viewed as a hick or a thug. Faux tough guys. 78

It's no different than posing with your car, or bike, or horse , or anything else you like or are into. So it's not your thing, it don't make those that do a rednick.

I think it's a lot different when someone poses with a weapon in order to present themselves as a badass as so many of those thugs do.

So if you take a pic with your car does it make you a wannabe nascar driver? Or with your horse you are a cowboy? Its just showing off something you own. It makes no difference just because its a gun.


Edited to add a pic of this bad ass woman. I sure hope I don't run into her in a dark alley.

I think most people who pose with weapons are trying to look tough. But I'm sure there are also people who pose with their weapons just because they like them and want to show them off, like a new car or something.

It makes no difference? Is this how you see yourself? I want to be clear on this so I don't offend you further. You want to be viewed like these guys?
