I would like to inform you that I will be hosting a Town Hall Forum on Achieving Peace and Stability in Iraq and Afghanistan. At the forum I will be discussing the plan to withdraw troops from Iraq as well as the plan to increase military presence in Afghanistan. Also, there will be a small select group of panelists to lend their wisdom. The Forum will be held on Sunday, March 29th from 1PM-3PM in Jones Common at Plymouth Congregational Church, 1300 Nicollet Ave S Minneapolis, Mn. The entrance is located on LaSalle Ave S. I would love to hear your views and opinions on this very important matter. I hope to see you on the 29th.
Sincerely,
Keith Ellison

NRA-ILA :: Minnesota: Another Gun Registration Bill Introduced
Minnesota: Another Gun Registration Bill Introduced
Friday, March 13, 2009
On Thursday March 5, State Senator Yvonne Prettner Solon (DFL-7) introduced Senate File 1165, in yet another attempt to end private firearm transfers in Minnesota. SF 1165 is the companion bill to House File 953, previously introduced by State Representative Michael Paymar (DFL-64B).
SF 1165, like HF 953, was designed to not only regulate the sale of firearms at gun shows, but to regulate the sale of firearms between all law-abiding persons, all across Minnesota. SF 1165 only affects law-abiding gun owners, and will in no way keep guns out of the hands of criminals. Also contained in SF 1165, is a de facto registration system created by requiring the records of all transfers to be maintained by the state, which would be made available to all authorities, including for use in “civil” cases. SF 1165 would also remove the permit holder exemption from a background check and even increase the waiting period from five to seven days.
SF 1165 is a direct attack on Minnesotans’ Second Amendment rights and needs to be stopped! Please contact the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and respectfully urge them to oppose this divisive bill. Their contact information can be found below.

"From now on, re manufacturers of military brass will not be able to buy surplus brass from DOD...At least, not in any form recognizable as once-fired brass ammunition.
Now all brass ammunition will have to be shredded, and sold as scrap."
...
"[T]his notice will serve as official notification which requires Scrap Venture (SV) to implement mutilation as a condition of sale for all sales of fired munitions effective immediately. This notice also requires SV to immediately cease delivery of any fired munitions that have been recently sold or on active term contracts, unless the material has been mutilated prior to sale or SV personnel can attest to the mutilation after delivery. A certificate of destruction is required in either case."

Guess who is backing the RINO A.Specter?
Any surprise here? He must be booted from our ranks along with that nitwit slathering RINO next to him in the picture.
Specter's arm is semipermanently twisted...to the left.
Free Speech Still Under Assault
Following a premeditated White House campaign to demonize Rush Limbaugh, Newsweek aided the left’s “Hush Rush” campaign with a cover story pushing for Rush to be silenced. Now Rush can handle criticism from the White House and Newsweek just fine. But there was also a little noticed vote in the Senate late last month that could enable the left to accomplish by government regulation what they could never accomplish with actual debate.
