Gun Makers Fight Back

"Wilson Combat will no longer provide any products or services to any State Government ... ." “ Gun Control Bill Nears Approval           After a week of House of Delagate hearings, where the opposition have turned out in staggering numbers- we're talking 40 to 1 ratios- here's how Martin O'Malley presents it on his blog.* "Wilson Combat will no longer provide any products or services to any State Government imposing legislation that infringes on the second amendment rights of its law abiding citizens. This includes any Law Enforcement Department, Law Enforcement Officers, or any State Government Entity or Employee of such an entity. This also applies to any local municipality imposing such infringements." Wilson lists the states included on its no sale policy as: California, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Washington D.C. and The City of Chicago, Illinois. Wilson is one of  118.companies (currently) participating in what has been named the "Firearms Equality Movement,"  These firearm companies have suspended the sale of guns to states, counties, cities and municipalities that restrict their citizens' rights to own them.  This is the spirit of the America we, all of us, knew before, say, 1992.  But wait.  I know the governors (and mayor) of those governments, and so do you.  Let me tell you what Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley is thinking.  As Obama's surrogate in the National Governor's Conference, and always (I said always) the first Governor to endorse any Obama initiative, we know that he's been on the horn about this.  In a nutshell, here's how he (and the rest) are thinking:  Declare the manufacturer's action a national security issue and nationalize them.  I guarantee you this is being tossed around, and everyone of them are of a mind to see this as entirely defensible.  Eric Holder is a master at saying, "who gives a rat's ass, just do it." Tap tap tap. *Here's the WaPost Poll he's ballyhooing. I will agree that 60% of Marylanders would approve reeducation camps if asked, but where is he getting "85% of Marylanders Support Handgun Licensing Requirement?"  That's s right- make it up. ”
