The Court after Scalia: The next “conservative” Justice may not save the Second Amendment
A thoughtful analysis by someone who knows a thing or two about the second amendment. He doesn't paint a rosy picture.

Rhode Island: Draconian Gun Control Legislation Proposed
http://libertycrier.com/lawmakers-rhode-island-unleash-long-list-anti-gun-bills/?utm_source=The+Liberty+Crier&utm_campaign=0a80e78178-The_Liberty_Crier_Daily_News_3_3_2014&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_600843dec4-0a80e78178-285044409
A number of bills includes ending shall issue carry, assault weapons ban patterned after NY state's SAFE ACT, magazine limits and would affect .22 caliber rifles, 10% tax on ammunition with money possibly going to the Brady Bunch (no this isn't April 1st).
"
These bills are nearly identical bills to those that stalled in the state Legislature last year, however, anti-gun lawmakers relentlessly continue to focus on law-abiding citizens rather than target criminals. As a result, cities like Providence continue to suffer under the scourge of crime.
No committee hearings have been scheduled, but these bills have been assigned to the Judiciary Committees in their respective chambers.........."

Gun confiscation is one step closer in Connecticut. The mainstream media spins it as “one more chance” for non-compliant gun owners who failed to register their scary guns before the January 1 deadline.
In reality, these letters - 106 to rifle owners, and 108 more to residents with standard capacity magazines – are the first step in the Connecticut State Police beginning to round up guns arbitrarily made illegal last year in that state. These guns include America’s favorite rifle, the AR-15 and magazines over 10 rounds, which include the standard capacity magazines made for that America’s favorite rifle.
Failure to register is now a felony now in Connecticut.
How long will it be before there is bloodshed over this law? We’re not sure, but we’re confident it is coming unless the law is rescinded or struck down by the courts.
Mike Vanderboegh of the edgy Sipsey Street Irregulars released an open letter a couple of weeks ago, warning of what’s coming to Connecticut. The Connecticut State Police aren’t listening. Yet.
We suspect attitudes may change after the first few rounds of bloodshed.
As it stands right now, the best estimates are that 4% of newly-regulated guns and magazines in The Nutmeg State have been registered, leaving a hundred thousand or more newly classified potential felons looking over their shoulder.

One more chance for gun owners
Posted: Monday, February 24, 2014 3:35 pm | Updated: 3:36 pm, Mon Feb 24, 2014.
Manchester, CT (Journal Inquirer) – When state officials decided to accept some gun registrations and magazine declarations that arrived after a Jan. 4 deadline, they also had to deal with those applications that didn’t make the cut.
The state now holds signed and notarized letters saying those late applicants own rifles and magazines illegally.
But rather than turn that information over to prosecutors, state officials are giving the gun owners a chance to get rid of the weapons and magazines.

100 letters don't seem like much, but it might be their strategy to tackle a little at a time when it comes to the overall 100k non-compliant gun owners. I'm giving strong consideration to the idea of making future purchases outside state lines.

I don't know anything about Baltimore Harbor; but yes; currents really can be that strong. A big cargo ship like that isn't very maneuverable. Most of the shipboard systems and controls are electric. If the lights go out, they have big, big trouble.

I understand the tide was going out at the time of the accident. Tide/currents/wind plays a big role against big ships -
so here's my deal. even though i asked the question earlier, i really want to believe this was an accident. my problem is that the more i watch the video, the more it looks like it was gonna miss the pylon right up till it hooked a hard right turn. so......are the currents really that strong that they coulda done that? or is it an optical illusion due to the camera angle?
