JUST THE OTHER DAY, I POSTED "KABA - the height of irresponsibility" for
quoting some .50 cal owner threatening to turn his .50 cal equipment over to
the state in pieces "at 2700 fps".  I made the case that NRA "wannabees"
like KABA and Brian Puckett at COA are damaging the firearms community.  I
said...

"...This confiscation issue is serious business, and the last thing the RKBA
side needs are flakes spreading around inflammatory garbage making us look
like social misfits.  Believe me, the author of AB2222, this .50 cal gun
ban, Assemblyman Koretz (Assemblymember.Koretz@assembly.ca.gov) - that
gun-banner *LOVES* the fact that these maroons make comments like this - it
justifies his bill!..."

Now Brian Puckett, the founder of "COA" and infamous for recommending that
people BREAK CALIFORNIA GUN LAWS (have *YOU* taken Brian's advice?), has
proven me right!  THIS GOOFBALL IS QUOTED IN THE LA TIMES AS THE PERFECT
REASON THIS LAW IS NEEDED!

EXCERPT ---------------------------------------
But some gun worshipers do talk like dangerous crackpots who, ironically,
make their own best case for strong regulation. They speak of killing
politicians.

For example, there's this lead paragraph from an essay by freelance writer
Brian Puckett on the Keep and Bear Arms Web site:

"Hundreds of thousands of Americans ... faced with ongoing state-sponsored
terrorism against gun ownership, believe that they will never regain the
free exercise of their right to own, carry and use firearms unless many
leading anti-gun politicians and activists are killed.

"In human terms, this is perfectly understandable. In fact, it is absolutely
logical."

This man definitely should not get a .50-caliber BMG permit.
--------------------------------------------------

Gun owners, we all believe passionately in protecting our rights.  But it's
time we, as a community, put the brakes on these idiots who are simply
starved for attention, and sacrifice our good image in their zeal to become
celebrities.

There are a lot of good volunteers doing a lot of good work trying to defeat
this monstrosity WHILE putting the best face forward as representatives of
the gun-owning community.  STOP BRIAN PUCKETT AND HIS ILK FROM *ASSISTING*
THE GUN-BANNERS!!!!
