Cuomo demands 10-round firearm magazines be banned

By Steve McGough / January 10, 2013 /

I can not understand why this fool won’t just step up and demand all firearms be confiscated. If you want to hunt – which is what New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo thinks the 2nd Amendment is about – we should be licensed and required to pick up a one-shot rifle at the local police department armory, and…

Last Sunday evening during halftime, NBC football analyst, Bob Costas, commented on the tragedy in Kansas City where a Chiefs’ football player killed his girlfriend and then killed himself with a firearm.  He used this tragedy to advocate gun control.  He left me with the impression that if we just banned guns in this country (or,…

By Steve McGough / July 27, 2012 /

Why are politicians allowed to do this kind of stuff? Lucky for us living in the Internet age, congress-critters can’t sneak stuff into legislation that has absolutely nothing to do with the actual legislation. Some Democrat senators are trying to add a high-capacity magazine ban into S.3414, the Cybersecurity Act of 2012.

Just what is a wellness program and how far would government regulators take such a program to promote health or prevent disease?
