Gun-Tootin’ Plumbers Unclog Gun Banners in Colorado.
When the Colorado political establishment takes a crap on the Second Amendment, it’s time to call a plumber, or in this case, three pro-gun plumbers.
“Armed with little more than a petition, an army of volunteer signature-gatherers and their iPhones, political newcomers Victor Head, his brother Adam Head, and Ernest Mascarenas have forced a recall election for state Sen. Angela Giron, a rising star in the state’s powerful Democratic Party and a labor favorite in heavily unionized Pueblo.
The three plumbers’ grass-roots efforts — and Ms. Giron’s struggle to hold on to her seat — have roiled politics in this purple state while laying down a marker in the increasingly fierce state-level battle over gun control laws, political watchers say.”
….
“A tattooed 28-year-old “backflow specialist” who works in the family plumbing business, Victor Head helped launch Pueblo Freedom and Rights in March, shortly after the Democrat-dominated state legislature approved three bills restricting access to firearms and ammunition.”
…
They also videotaped pro-Giron demonstrators who blocked their tables. One recording showed a man passing out $20 bills to demonstrators.
See? Our three heroes “didn’t have college degrees, money, connections or political experience,” but they had the PASSION and the will to get it done.
“Political analysts initially dismissed the recall talk as a pipe dream. Officials at the Colorado Republican Party and Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, the state’s largest gun advocacy group, took a pass on the idea, saying they would wait for the 2014 elections.”
Exactly, because they lack vision, they’re out of touch with the voters. To them, the Second Amendment is just a theory, they’re more likely to own an espresso machine than a handgun, but to us, the Second Amendment is real.
Maybe y’all need some new analysts, and right now there’s three plumbers that I can recommend you.
Thanks for unclogging the bastards, boys. It’s a dirty job, but you’ve already done it. Let’s just hope the voters vote them out in the recall.

Tries to rob Gun Store with Knife and Bat.
This guy is lucky to be alive. What was Derrick Mosley thinking when he walked into Discount Gun Sales in Beaverton, Ore., and tried to take a five finger discount on an unloaded handgun by smashing a display case?
The manager grabbed his gun, ordered Mosley to the ground and the cops took it from there.

Democrats join Republicans to defeant anti-gun veto, for wrong reasons.
Some Democrats realize that it’s political suicide in Missouri to vote anti-gun, so they’re trying to override the governor’s veto, but not for the right reasons.
“The legislation would make it a misdemeanor for federal agents to attempt to enforce any federal gun regulations that “infringe on the people’s right to keep and bear arms.” The same criminal charges would apply to journalists who publish any identifying information about gun owners. The charge would be punishable by up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine.
…
With the help of a few Democrats, Missouri’s Republican-led Legislature appears to be positioned to override Gov. Jay Nixon’s veto of a high-profile bill that seeks to nullify federal gun-control laws in the state and make criminals out of federal agents who attempt to enforce them.”
Nice right? But here’s what they really think.
“”We love our guns and we love hunting. It’s not worth the fight for me to vote against it,” said Rep. T.J. McKenna, D-Festus. But, he added, “the bill is completely unconstitutional, so the courts are going to have to throw it out.”
…
“Our Constitution is not a Chinese buffet, which we like and do not like,” the Jefferson City attorney told the AP. “The First Amendment is part of the Constitution that we must uphold. … (And) the supremacy clause means that states cannot criminalize the activities of agents of the federal government.”
“Being a rural-area Democrat, if you don’t vote for any gun bill, it will kill you,” Harris said. “That’s what the Republicans want you to do is vote against it, because if you vote against it, they’ll send one mailer every week just blasting you about guns, and you’ll lose” re-election.
…
“I personally believe that any higher court will probably rule this particular gun law unconstitutional — on that, I probably agree that the governor’s right,” Schieffer said. “But I may end up still voting for the gun bill, because I don’t want to be on record for not supporting guns.”

Don’t worry, Schieffer, we now know you’re anti-gun. Too bad none of you believe in the supremacy of the Second Amendment.
Tell me, politicians, how come it’s illegal to publish the phone and addresses of abortion doctors? Isn’t that covered by the First Amendment? No? Then neither is publishing the names and address of gun owners.
A private citizen is not a public figure unless he becomes one. These journalists are not interested in reporting anything but in outing gun owners so they can be harassed by their liberal neighbors and perhaps have their property stolen by courageous criminals (takes courage to break into a home where you might get shot).
