Gun Control Proposal Hopes to Make Gun Stores, Ranges Display THIS Outside Their Businesses

Beth Baumann / Townhall Notebook

The Chair of the Kings County Council in Washington state has a gun control proposal he's pushing for. The proposal takes a three-pronged approach to dealing with "gun violence" in the area but one of the proposals is new.

Joe McDermott (D), the Council Chair, wants to make it mandatory for gun stores and ranges to have safety warning signs outside of their facilities. He detailed his vision in an OpEd in the Seattle Times:

First, I propose that public safety warning signs be posted at any place of firearm sale or discharge in King County, which will articulate the very real and significant risks to health and life inherent with firearm ownership. These signs will also provide immediate contact information for suicide-prevention and mental-health resources for individuals who might be in crisis. Once passed by the Board of Health, signs will be placed at the entrances and purchase counters of every shooting range and store selling guns in King County.

EU defies Trump, embraces bloodthirsty mullahs: urges “increased business with Iran”
By Robert Spencer / Jihad Watch

 

The European Union had a choice between supporting Donald Trump or supporting the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who scream “Death to America” and “Death to Israel,” aid international jihad terror groups, and brutally oppress their own people. For the EU, it was a no-brainer. “EU slaps Trump in the face, urges ‘increased […]

Facebook: Farrakhan’s Anti-Semitic Conspiracy Theories Don’t Violate ‘Hate Speech’ Rules

By Geller Report Staff

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrkhan’s Facebook page may be filled with anti-semitic, vicious and angry posts and conspiracy theories — but according to the social media powers-that-be, that’s all A-OK to stay.

Apparently, Farrakhan’s rhetoric doesn’t violate Facebook’s terms of service.

Fact is, Louis Farrakhan, the head of the Nation of Islam, is the leader of a designated hate group, has praised Adolf Hitler as “a very great man,” and has been labeled “the leading anti-Semite in America.”

Consider what he once said by way of proving his righteousness: “If God was not with him and the Nation of Islam we could not have survived the constant and ever increasing assault of the United States government and those who say they are Jews, but are of the Synagogue of Satan.”

This — even as Alex Jones, deemed a hater, can’t find a home on several social media sites any longer.

Ohio Barnburner: It Looks Like The GOP Gave Democrats A Black Eye In The Buckeye State

Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet

Rep. Pat Tiberi (R-OH) resigned to return to the private sector that triggered tonight’s special election. Democrats weren’t even supposed to be competitive here. Instead, we got a nail-biter of a race that saw Democrat Danny O’Connor, who serves as Franklin County’s Recorder, give state Sen. Troy Balderson and the Republican Party quite the challenge in a congressional district that Trump won by double-digits.

This special election in the 12^thcongressional district is the last contest until the 2018 midterms, where Democratic enthusiasm is through the roof. It’s a bellwether, one the Democrats see as a sign of a blue wave if they win or come very close. Whoever wins will have to defend their seat again this November. While this cycle is loaded with nuance, there are troubling signs that the GOP could potentially lose the House. There’s still a lot of time to go, however.  

The New York Times had a good piece on how both sides duked it out, while noting something that the Trump White House hasn’t been touting as efficiently
