 YAHOO! NEWS 2 Hours Ago NRA to meet in Texas after gun control blocked in U.S. Congress by  Corrie MacLaggan By Corrie MacLaggan AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - Tens of thousands of National Rifle Association members gather in Houston this weekend for the first time since the U.S. Senate rejected a plan to expand background checks for gun buyers, but NRA officials said attendees would not sit back to celebrate victory. "We view it as an opening battle in what will be a multi-year war," said Andrew Arulanandam, a spokesman for the NRA, which lobbied against the proposal. "We're definitely not resting on our laurels." Polls show more than 80 percent of Americans support expanded background checks, but the proposal to extend background checks for sales made online and at gun shows fell six votes shy on April 17 of the 60 votes needed to clear a procedural hurdle in the Senate. "Clearly, the sales and promotion of firearms is big business" The proposal, which s

Speaking following a meeting with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, whose country has been ravaged by gang violence supported in part by gun trafficking into Mexico, Obama vowed to return to the issue of gun control in the United States.

Mary Landrieu (D-LA) and Kay Hagan (D-NC) after they voted 'yes' on tightening background checks. These numbers are especially notable because both Democratic senators are up for reelection in 2014 in red states." 'On the flip side, as we showed here on Tuesday, approval ratings for several senators in both parties who voted against the measure--ultimately defeating it--have taken a noticeable dip. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Mark Begich (D-AK) were among the most bruised, according to the numbers."

Attorney General Eric Holder is threatening Federal Action against the State of Kansas after they passed a gun control nullification bill that banned federal authorities from violating is residents second amendment rights. The Bill,  SB102 , made it a felony for a federal agent to enforce any law, regulation, order or treaty regulating guns and ammunition made, sold and kept in the state, all of which is 100% constitutional since the Federal government does not have interstate commerce authority to regulate items made inside the State. We should also mention that they have no authority to regulate any type of firearms since they are forbidden to do so in the 2 nd  amendment of the U

 LIBERTARIOSUSA.ORG 2 Hours Ago Film industry pleas for exemption from NY gun control by  Robert Butler At least one group of elitist liberals is asking for an exemption from New York State's new gun control law. Apparently, the ambiguity of the law has some in  Hollywood concerned  that it would prevent them from using life-like assault weapons on set in NYC. So, naturally they want an exemption. The irony of this is of course that some of the most vociferous pushing for gun control comes from Sen. Schumer of New York, Sen. Feinstein of California, and Mayor Bloomberg of NYC. Hollywood's support for these type of far left liberal gun-grabbers is usually as  loud  as it is  ignorant . Loads of money pour into New York City, and as a consequence New York State, from the record-level film production that takes place there and the associated business. Unsurprisingly, gun control advocates failed to think through the consequences of the legislation that they rammed through and may

 NPR 2 Hours Ago Ayotte Becoming Gun Control Lightning Rod by  Frank James Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., has drawn the focus of gun control proponents for voting against a bid to expand criminal background checks for gun buyers. "She would be awfully cautious of such a thing because for her you'd have the worst of both worlds" J. Scott Applewhite/AP Of the senators who have become lightning rods for voting against expanded criminal background checks for gun buyers, New Hampshire Republican Kelly Ayotte is drawing the most bolts. Video of Ayotte  being questioned  by the daughter of the principal killed during the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Newtown, Conn., has gone viral. And Ayotte has become an early target of an election-season-style media campaign by a gun control superPAC created by former Arizona congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and her husband Mark Kelly, an ex-astronaut.

 MIAMIHERALD.COM 2 Hours Ago Lawyers: Fort Lauderdale is misinterpreting gun law by  William Hladky An apparent misreading of state law by the Fort Lauderdale Police has kept officers from enforcing a Broward County ordinance that requires criminal background checks on gun buyers at gun shows. Two legal experts have told BrowardBulldog.org that the Police Department is wrong to believe that a state statute enacted last year invalidates the county background checks ordinance. Similarly, the Hillsborough County Attorney said in a memo this month that his county continues to have the "authority to require criminal background checks." The 1998 Broward County ordinance says criminal background checks must be done on gun buyers when sales occur "on property to which the public has a right of access." A violation is a misdemeanor. "I think the police have it wrong." But Fort Lauderdale Police spokeswoman Det. DeAnna Greenlaw said the county ordinance no longer i

Now is the time to stand," Beck said to thunderous applause. Beck also teased part of his highly anticipated keynote speech, scheduled for Saturday at the NRA convention. Standing in front a table covered with firearms, he said the guns "tell the Ameri
