MOVIE REVIEW: The Gang

By Chris Chumita

In 2003, the Jews For The Preservation Of Firearms Ownership (JPFO), released an amazing documentary called Innocents Betrayed. Now in 2007, the JPFO has produced another Oscar worthy and hard hitting documentary. This time, they are exposing the truth about the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF). Their new documentary is appropriately named The Gang.

The Gang exposes the often abusive and over reaching practices of one of the few (possibly only) federal government agencys whose mandate is to regulate what is supposed to be a constitutionally protected right. When you see what is revealed in this video, you will be appalled and you may need to increase the dose of your blood pressure medication. You will also be shocked at how this government agency has routinely abused law-abiding gun owners and is rewarded with an ever growing budget.

It's About Privacy (& the Sandusky Register Secretly Employing Sex Offenders)

By Ken Hanson

Sandusky Register Editor Matt Westerhold, apparently with a straight face, published an editorial today entitled “It’s about the secrets, not about the gun owners”. Apparently hoping we forgot his history at the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram, where he attacked gun owners' privacy in similar fashion, Mr. Westerhold bemoans that he did not seek this fight, but at the same time he would be irresponsible to duck it.

Sorry, Mr. Westerhold, it is very much about the gun owners and their rights to privacy.

Mr. Westerhold openly concedes that Ohio law says that concealed carry lists are not public records. Think about that for a moment. The people, by and through their elected officials, have determined, as a matter of law, that these lists are not public records and the release of these lists is not in the public interest. Not some administrative agency trying to shield their meetings or who they meet with, not some bureaucrat trying to hide the fact he gave a no-bid contract to his brother-in-law, not a renegade school board member trying to change curriculum… The people, by and through their elected representatives, made a decision. Those who exercise a right, like praying, writing an idiotic editorial or obtaining an abortion, are not required to face public scrutiny. These are not public records, and their release is not in the public interest. So Sayeth The People.
