Democrats Push Biden Administration to
Shut Down Ammunition Plant Supposedly
to Prevent Mass Shootings

Democrat attorneys general are calling for an investigation into the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in an effort to shut down the facility. The Missouri-based plant, which is the largest producer of small arms ammunition in the U.S., has become one of the latest targets of the anti-gunner crowd in their quest to keep as many Americans disarmed as possible. The Democrats’ request, which is ostensibly intended to curb the availability of “military-grade rounds” in the commercial market, is supposed to be a step towards decreasing the prevalence of gun violence. However, like their other schemes, a closer look

This plant also supplies our military. Leftists don't care about that.

Too bad the Commiecrats don't want to shut down the weapons grade fentinal at the border. More evidence of the leftist attempts to thwart resistance from the citizenry.

FTA; 'Mexico filed the lawsuit in August 2021, alleging the defendants – among them brands including Smith & Wesson, Colt and Glock – “design, market, distribute and sell guns in ways” that arm Mexican drug cartels, contributing significantly to a rise in gun violence within Mexico, despite strong regulations.' Why doesn't the Mexican government go after the drug cartels? Oh yeah, they ARE the Mexican government.

Doesn't matter if it supplies the military. Biden and company think they've stockpiled enough ammo to kill every man woman and child 10x over in the hands of the IRS, ATF, DEPT. of Education and anyone else they think needs a swat team to protect them from the voters. Have to stop the ammo so WE can't resupply. I think we're heading for endgame, now. They are upset with Texas because they can't get international supplies from their Allies (China, Russia, Ukraine and Iran) through with Abbott blocking the border. Obce we locate those ammo stockpiles, they'll be OUR ammo stockpiles. Meanwhile our citizenry is fairly well armed to face what's coming. Hey, how do you fly an F-16, without a pilot?

I live close to the plant, about 45 minute drive, have friends who work there. I purchase their ammo in quantity every year. What quantities? Adequate quantities, very adequate. And the comments quoted in the article is correct, precisely so: "Gun control advocates are firing blanks when they contend that taxpayers are subsidizing mass shooters. They get causality backward. The law-abiding target shooters and gun owners who buy Lake City ammunition are subsidizing national defense and military readiness. Indeed, Lake City is not the sole source of any of the types of ammunition manufactured and sold commercially." Exactly so. When I buy their surplus ammo, I help keep the quantity of ammo up, so the production costs stay lower than they would be a lower production output. THIS directly lowers the price that the military has to pay for their ammo, since they WOULD have to pay 100% of the plant costs - regardless of the quantity of ammo produced. Less ammo for the SAME fixed costs.....higher prices for the military. Same fixed costs, more quantity produced .......LOWER cost per round, for the military and for civilians. As usual, Demonrats are all wrong, totally backwards.

Actually, #4, most of that "stockpiled ammo" you write about has already been expended in training. How many rounds to train a police force of 5,000 officers? Simple math. Require an officer to qualify twice a year, probably 30 -50 rounds in qualification. Let's assume that with practice, qualifying multiple times, each officer expends about 200 rounds per year. This means that the 5,000 officer PD burns 1,000,000 rounds per year. SWAT officers burn many times that in much more intensive training. My bet is that all these federal agencies with "10 million rounds purchased"....have about 6 month or a year of ammo for training on the shelves. They burn through it very steadily.

How do you know that it's election time? Joe Biden is finally doing something about the border crisis. Not anything substantive to fix the issues, mind you, not that. He claims he doesn't have the power to do that. He's trying to shift the blame for the problem he created and has denied for three years until this month, to the Republicans, now that the election is upon us and his handlers realize it's an important issue to the American people. But he's also discovered something else with election time. He's discovered how important Ohio is and how he's losing in the polls to former President Donald Trump there,

The war between Israel and Hamas continues to rage following the October 7th attacks carried out by the latter. In what culminated in a wild scene, IDF operators dressed in disguise raided a hospital in Jenin, taking out a Hamas leader and two of his deputies. No one else was harmed. Surveillance footage showed the beginning of the operation, with one operator even showing up in a wheelchair while others dressed as Muslim women and medical workers.

First, there was the revelation of an alleged romantic relationship with the man she had appointed to be a special prosecutor, Nathan Wade, in the election case against former President Donald Trump. That was accompanied by evidence of at least two meetings with the Biden White House, which stinks to high heaven. That was followed by the records from Wade's estranged wife Jocelyn Wade that were filed in their divorce case showing that he allegedly bought trips to go on together with Willis.

It is belaboring the obvious to note that a constitutional right should not be conditional and subject to taxation, but a Maryland politician is proposing exactly that. Predictably, anti-Second Amendment Maryland Delegate Terri Hill is proposing to require prospective legal CCW holders to provide proof of a $300k insurance policy before being allowed to carry. Gun owners in Maryland would be required to buy at least $300,000 in liability insurance or forfeit their ability to carry a firearm under a new bill.

Young voters are already frustrated that Joe Biden couldn’t deliver on an actual student loan bailout. Biden didn’t have the votes in Congress to pull off something of that scale, and doing so by executive decree was later deemed constitutionally questionable. He did so on a smaller scale because Joe, like crackhead Hunter, thinks the rules don’t apply to him. Still, it hasn’t masked the fact that young voters are souring on Joe; they think he’s too old, and now he’s enabling genocide in Gaza. You know there’s no genocide in Gaza. Still, the kiddos and the Muslim voters here think Treblinka 2.0 is unfolding before our very eyes,

Former U.N. Ambassador and South Carolina governor Nikki Haley's allegations that chaos follows former president Donald Trump wherever he goes are proving to be unfounded. Aside from the circus of indictments, if the poll numbers, endorsements, and wins in both the Iowa Caucuses and the New Hampshire Primary are any indication, the Trump 2024 re-election machine appears to be well-oiled and chugging along smoothly. In particular, the endorsements have been almost lockstep, showing a unified Republican Party backing without reservation the person whom they assume will be the presumptive nominee. Something shocking — and telling — has unfolded beyond Donald Trump's onstage, online and courtroom theatrics:

Falsely accusing people of racism never gets old for folks on the hard left – especially for MSNBC commentator Joy Reid, who gets paid big bucks to call people bigots for not being progressives. In the latest episode of “Everyone Who Disagrees With Me Is a Racist,” Reid hit out at people who oppose open borders immigration policy during a conversation with Paola Ramos, a former advisor to Hillary Clinton. Reid was especially fixated on Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), who has been vocal in his criticism of the Biden administration for its failure to handle the border crisis.

A man from Mississippi has been charged with a hate crime after he allegedly badly damaged a Satanic display at Iowa's capitol building in Des Moines in December. The damaged display included a statue of the pagan idol Baphomet. [SNIP] Michael Cassidy, a former Mississippi congressional candidate, was charged after the vandalism with misdemeanor fourth-degree criminal mischief. He said at the time, "My conscience is held captive to the word of God, not to bureaucratic decree. And so I acted." That charge was upgraded, according to court documents reported on by the Des Moines Register, accusing Cassidy of committing felony third-degree criminal mischief.
