The Move To Ban Online Ammo Sales!
By Andrea Shea King
The gun-control debate is dominating headlines and online conversations on social media, blogs and news journals like WND, and shows no sign of letting up any time soon.
So it follows that this week’s column takes a look at how it’s playing on the Internet, beginning with an article by Seton Motley of Less Government that appeared in Breitbart.com about how the left, desirous of weakening the Second Amendment, is taking aim at the Internet. Specifically, progressives want an all-out ban on online sales of ammunition.
A comment from a reader? “I put my name on the order form … I just ordered a bunch 15 minutes ago.”
My advice? Try AmmoSeek for the best prices available on the Internet.
But has Obama denounced it?
It’s an online video game that encourages players to shoot and kill National Rifle Association officials. Yikes. That’s pretty violent and totally inappropriate.
I’m not the only one who thinks aiming a bullet to the head of the National Rifle Association president is violent and totally unacceptable. Wisconsin Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner thinks so too, and wrote a letter to President Obama telling him so, urging the president to denounce “Bullet to the Head of the NRA“.
In a letter to Obama, Sensenbrenner voiced his concern about the video game.
“A website entitled Facepunch allows users to download a video game inviting them to take headshots at National Rifle Association (NRA) officials,” Sensenbrenner wrote. “Making threats against public figures who speak out either for or against gun control prevents us from having a reasonable, thoughtful debate. Although we may have strong disagreements on the best ways to reduce gun violence, it is my hope that we can both agree that video games targeting specific individuals who speak out on this issue, is counterproductive.”
No word on whether Obama has yet denounced the game.

I thought that I would mention that I found an online ammo dealer that has good prices (for these crazy times) and excellent service. Just google United Nations ammo company. That ought to do it.
