BATFE Scrutinizing Alabama Gun Sales: "Cities in the North create
stringent laws so a black market is created," Cavanaugh said. "Criminal
firearms traffic doesn't have to cross a national border. So the
smuggling across state lines becomes easy for a criminal to do. He's not
going to run into border checkpoints and be questioned. Once he acquires
the guns, he has an unfettered route."

Women Shooters Continue To Receive Press In Massachusetts: "I think it's
easier to be a gay coming out of a closet than to be a shooter,
especially a woman shooter," she said. Her company instituted a no-gun

Even In Canada, "Gun Control" Won't Protect Against Losers: The entire
gun control and registry debate in this country is, and always has been,
based on an individual case, that of the slaughter of 14 female students
at Montreal's Ecole Polytechnique in 1989 by another loser with a
grudge. And it has been a debate that has demonstrated a barely
concealed hostility toward men in general and male firearms owners in
particular.
