In MA. the other night 2 rifles a M16 and a sniper rifle was stolen out of a parked vehicle. There was a $20,000 reward offered and the guns have since been found but WOW someone is going to get into trouble over that. In MA. depending on your firearm license/permit a gun needs to be locked in a case when transported or on your person. I wonder if the MA. laws extend to the FBI? Did the firearms have cable or trigger locks installed? Who knows. I'm glad the guns were found it would have been terrible for them to be used in a crime.
Note to law enforcement, secure your firearms.

I remember back in the '60s & '70s when large scale gun thefts at National Guard armories around the country were not uncommon. Lots of full auto weapons and associated equipment were ripped off by burglars.

Who knows how much of that activity was via inside jobs?

Accountability in the federal government? These are government employees we are talking about - there is no accountability. No one gets in trouble.

Default Pediatrician Caught Stealing Homeowners' "Repeal NY's S.A.F.E. Act" Signs

Dr. Anna Maria Contour (interestingly, from Hungary) apparently has no appreciation of either the Second or First Amendement, as she's considered it her mission to remove signs advocating the repeal of NY's draconian (and poorly named) "SAFE" Act.

For those not familiar with how the NY political machine works, this law just happened to have already been drafted, and was even on the desk of Governor Paterson, waiting for lawmakers to take advantage of the latest tragedy er.....for the opportune time to slip it into law in the dead of night.

A number of homeowners followed the doctor and called 911. She was observed tossing the signs into the dumpster behind the medical professional building.

ivory tower syndrome. I have run into docs who wouldn't know a semi auto from a semi trailer, and know nothing about self-defense other than 'call security,' but think they are experts on the topic because they've been to medical school and read a study.

Default Knockout game,a dangerious crime for all!

Everyone has heard about Young Black Youths sneaking up on a unsuspected man or women and punching them with the intent of knocking the victim out. (Of course these are real men ,Ha Ha)

It will be just a matter of time someone with a conceal permit to defend themselves. The end result is some will fatally shot. In big Liberal cities guns owned by legal private citizens are discouraged. So much for our second amendment Rights!

It will be just a matter of time, sadly.

A northeast Minneapolis man said he interrupted an armed and bloody robbery at a corner market in his neighborhood, sending the two suspects fleeing when he drew his handgun from his holster and had it “at the ready.”
