H.R. 1022

I just got an e-mail from the National Rifle Association alerting me to the fact that United States Representative Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.) is coming after your firearms.


THE MOST SWEEPING GUN BAN EVER INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS;McCarthy Bill Bans Millions More Guns Than The Clinton Gun Ban
On Feb. 14, 2007, Representative Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.) introduced H.R. 1022, a bill with the stated purpose, "to reauthorize the assault weapons ban, and for other purposes."
McCarthy's verbiage warrants explanation. Presumably, what she means by "assault weapons ban" is the Clinton Gun Ban of 1994. Congress allowed the ban to expire in 2004 for multiple reasons, including the fact that federal, state and local law enforcement agency studies showed that guns affected by the ban had been used in only a small percentage of crime, before and after the ban was imposed.
With the nation's murder rate 43% lower than in 1991, and the re-legalized guns still used in only a small percentage of crime, reauthorizing the Clinton Gun Ban would be objectionable enough. But McCarthy's "other purposes" would make matters even worse. H.R. 1022 would ban every gun banned by the Clinton ban, plus millions more guns, including:
. Every gun made to comply with the Clinton ban. (The Clinton ban dictated the kinds of grips, stocks and attachments new guns could have. Manufacturers modified new guns to the Clinton requirements. H.R. 1022 would ban the modified guns too.)
. Guns exempted by the Clinton ban. (Ruger Mini-14s and -30s and Ranch Rifles; .30 cal. carbines; and fixed-magazine, semi-automatic, center-fire rifles that hold more than 10 rounds.)
. All semi-automatic shotguns. (E.g., Remington, Winchester, Beretta and Benelli, used for hunting, sport shooting, and self-defense. H.R. 1022 would ban them because they have "any characteristic that can function as a grip," and would also ban their main component, called the "receiver.")
. All detachable-magazine semi-automatic rifles-including, for example, the ubiquitous Ruger 10/22 .22 rimfire-because they have "any characteristic that can function as a grip."
. Target shooting rifles. (E.g., the three centerfire rifles most popular for marksmanship competitions: the Colt AR-15, the Springfield M1A and the M1 "Garand.")
. Any semi-automatic shotgun or rifle an Attorney General one day claims isn't "sporting," even though the constitutions of the U.S. and 44 states, and the laws of all 50 states, recognize the right to use guns for defense.
. 65 named guns (the Clinton law banned 19 by name); semi-auto fixed-magazine pistols of over 10 rounds capacity; and frames, receivers and parts used to repair or refurbish guns.
H.R. 1022 would also ban the importation of magazines exempted by the Clinton ban, ban the sale of a legally-owned "assault weapon" with a magazine of over 10 rounds capacity, and begin backdoor registration of guns, by requiring private sales of banned guns, frames, receivers and parts to be conducted through licensed dealers. Finally, whereas the Clinton Gun Ban was imposed for a 10-year trial period, H.R. 1022 would be a permanent ban.


I know firearms owners that were not opposed to the Clinton ban because it didn't effect them. They didn't own anything that was on the ban list. Someone wrote a poem about what can happen when you think like that. The Clinton ban was not reinstated because it didn't work. It did little to nothing to stop crime and save lives. It did take some firearms out of the hands of honest citizens that enjoy hunting, target shooting or collecting. It banned some firearms that people wanted to have around for self and home defense. It did put some law makers that supported it out of work.

If passed H.R. 1022 will outlaw everything that was on the Clinton list and more. Maybe that old shotgun, rifle or pistol Grandpa left you will be on the list.

If passed H.R. 1022 won't go away in a few years like the Clinton ban. It will be here to stay and be used as a stepping stone when the gun grabbers come for more. The plan is to disarm the country. That is one step toward total control.

Please contact your United States representative and urge him or her to oppose H.R. 1022. If necessary remind them of what happened to some of the supporters of the Clinton gun grab.

Question Of The Week, 2/25/07

Good morning. I got busy after work last night so this will be short. This weeks Question Of The Week is. What is your opinion of the president's health care plan?

I'll post my answer in the comment section Monday night.

God Bless America God Save The Republic.

12th President Of The United States, David Rice Atchison?

I got a little something for you history buffs. I had heard about President Atchison before but I had forgotten about him. Chances are you won't find much about him in your history books. My Grand Daughter and I are planning a trip to Plattsburg, Missouri to see what we can learn about what I'd assume was the shortest presidential term in the history of the United States. According to this article in our local paper David Rice Atchison was "President for a day".


Nancy Hull
Education Reporter

PLATTSBURG, Mo. - Many believe David Rice Atchison had his own President's Day on March 4, 1849.On this year's annual Presidents Day, a Plattsburg museum in Mr. Atchison's honor became official.Mr. Atchison, who Atchison, Kan., was named for, is most well-known for his legacy of being president for one day. The story goes that when President James Polk's term expired at noon on a Sunday, incoming President Zachary Taylor refused to be sworn in on the Sabbath. Mr. Atchison was the president pro tempore of the U.S. Senate at the time, which put him at the top of the chain of command for 24 hours.Officially, Mr. Atchison is not on the president list; his statue and grave in Plattsburg say otherwise. "The honestest presidency ever," Mr. Atchison used to joke, as those gathered in the Clinton County courthouse basement remembered Monday during a dedication for the museum.The Clinton County Historical Society sponsored the project, which is a few display cases in the courthouse basement.To those in Plattsburg, the museum honors a man who accomplished much more than the disputed claim to fame.He was a general for the Confederate Army, a lawyer, a senator.Helen Russell, a Clinton County Historical Society board member, spent nearly 40 years working in the courthouse as the circuit clerk and recorder of deeds, and she fielded many inquires from all over the nation seeking information on the man some consider the nation's 12th commander in chief.Her research led her to know that Mr. Atchison was considerate of the slaves who lived on his rural Missouri property."I read letters he wrote that said, 'take good care of my slaves,'" she said.His will, which is displayed in one of the cases, requested that one particular slave remain living on Mr. Atchison's property for another 15 years."I always tried to avoid that 'president for a day' title and get to the more important stuff," Ms. Russell said.Board member Joanne Holman said the new museum will be helpful to those history seekers who show up in Plattsburg searching for information on Mr. Atchison.Sarah Phelps Smith, Mr. Atchison's great-great-great niece, traveled from Ohio for Monday's dedication. Her mother grew up in Mr. Atchison's old home outside of Plattsburg. Ms. Smith often visited the home as a child, and as a historian herself, she's spent much time researching her famous "Uncle Dave."It was hard for her not to get emotional Monday as she visited with those in attendance and peered at the pictures and letters honoring the relative she knows was a loving family man and colorful politician."Clearly, everyone loved the man," Ms. Smith said.


I feel that a trip to your local museum is the best history lesson a person can get. The area we live in is blessed with many of them.

Question Of The Week, 2/18/07

Good morning. After I got home from work last night I started checking my e-mail and the latest news looking for something to use for this weeks question. After a while I decided to use the conversations that were taking place in my living room. Several times in about a half an hour people had to be reminded some places will be closed Monday, Presidents Day. Our Grand Daughter and I started talking about the reason for the Holiday, I'd like to invite you to be a part of that conversation. This weeks Question Of The Week is. What or who should we be honoring on Presidents Day? I'll post my answer in the Comment Section Monday night.

God Bless America, God Save The Republic.

Where Have I Been?

I haven't been posting as many messages or visiting as many sites as I once did because of a recent change around home. I'm now involved in Home Schooling one of our Grand Children, it is time consuming, and interesting. Since I'm not the most patient person on the face of the earth I feel a little sorry for our student at times. I hope to learn from this as I teach. Any tips/suggestions/words of encouragement or prayers you have are welcome at this time. I hope you will continue to stop by from time to time to see if I've posted anything new,(Sundays Question Of The Week will always be there even if nothing else is) and I will stop by your site as time permits.

God Bless America, God Save The Republic.

Can You Help?

No, that title is not the Question Of The Week, (you'll find that below this post) it is a request for help that was e-mailed to me by Chuck and Mary Schantag of the P.O.W. NETWORK this morning.

"Please help!>>The Sagamore Hills, OH Police Department is a 20 man department and is >unique in the fact that our cruisers have a prominent pow-mia logo on the >rear fenders. The officers are proud of this logo, which has been on the >cars since they were redesigned in 2003 by then-chief Rudy Prhne.>>Rudy retired in December of 2006, and we now have a temporary "interim >cheif" who was brought in to serve while the town leaders chose a new >permanent chief, which is expected to take about 3 months. (end of march)>>THe intermin cheif, Walt Markowski, has ordered the POW-MIA logos removed >from our fleet. When asked why he responded "they dont belong there".>>Can a group like yours PLEASE make some phone calls to stop this?>>Sagamore Hills Police Department 330-468-0900>Sagamore Hills Township Offices 330-467-0900>"

How politically correct can you get? Don't do anything to offend someone. Like try to get the public to remember members of our military that were taken prisoner or went missing in action. I've never been to Sagamore Hills but I'd be willing to bet that the police officers there were the black uniforms that are so popular with the globalist. I wonder were the interim chief feels it is OK to display the POW/MIA logo? I hope you can call one of those numbers and urge the township officials to leave the logo on their police cars.

Question Of The Week, 2/11/07

Good morning. I knew I was behind but this is really bad. Back to back questions of the week. I've had quite a bit going on around home this week to keep me busy. For what it's worth, I'm also about a week behind on my e-mail. I got the idea for this weeks Question Of The Week from a February 6, 2007 column by Chuck Baldwin. Do you think more American voters are beginning to agree that, "Even a virtually unknown candidate with limited experience, but someone who understands the issues and has the backbone to do what is right, would be head and shoulders above what the two major parties are currently shoving down our throats."?

I'll post my answer in the Comment Section Monday night.

Question Of The Week, 2/4/07

Good Morning. After I got off work at 11:PM (last night) I came home and the first thing I heard when I came through the door was the Grand Daughter that lives with us telling me she had good news and bad news, I almost left again. The good news was she loves me. So then I'm thinking the next part will be a killer. The "bad news", when she tried to take a shower she found out the shower drain was frozen again,second time this winter. My Wife had plugged in the heat tape earlier, when I checked that I found a tripped circuit breaker. So I took care of that and got washed up. Then I started working on this weeks question, still thinking about the frozen pipe. I found something I thought was interesting (very fitting because of the frozen drain line) in the "It's Your Call" section of my local paper.


"Keep on truckin'

Twenty-five thousand years ago, there was a sheet of ice that went from the North Pole to right around Des Moines, Iowa. In some places, it was three miles thick. It melted. There was some global warming back then that caused it to melt. There weren't any airplanes, any cars, any trains to cause any pollutants in the atmosphere to raise the temperature. Nowadays, we have global warning, that's a fact, but I cannot see it being solely man-made. Whatever caused the first temperature to rise 25,000 years ago to melt that sheet of ice is the same thing that is causing global warming now. And, if anyone thought that those scientists that met in Paris would come away with any conclusion other than "Man is the sole responsibility for causing global warming," then they have to have another thought coming, because that was the sole purpose of that meeting."



OK, what would I think about other than global warming when I have frozen pipes? It is something we hear about just about daily. I'm pretty sure it is something just about everyone has an opinion on. So, this weeks Question Of The Week will be in several parts. What's your opinion, is global warming real or is it a part of some scientists over active imagination? If it is real was it caused by man, or is it a part of Gods plan? Is it something man should try to fix/prevent, or should we be trying to adapt? I'll post my answers in the Comment Section Monday night.

Gone But Not Forgotten

I wear a stainless steel bracelet on my right arm that has "GYSGT Galen F. Humphrey USMC 02-01-66 NVN/OW" engraved on it. I told the people I got my POW/MIA bracelet from I wanted one with the name of someone from the Saint Joseph, Missouri area on it. They told me that GYSGT Humphrey was the only POW from Saint Joseph. He has been missing for 41 years today. I've had several people tell me I might as well take it off because he has been dead for years. Our government is going to have to come up with more proof than what they have offered his family so far to make me believe that. I've had the honor to meet several of his family members and the last I knew they weren't quite ready to give up and forget him. The bracelet will remain on my arm until the day they are able to introduce him to me live and in person or lay him to rest. God bless GYSGT Humphrey, gone but not forgotten.
