Firearm website "CTD" tries to repair reputation in email to subscribers

After a massive public out cry of disappointment from the consumer market over how firearm retailer's "Cheaper than Dirt"  responds to Big Government pressure by stopping sales, plans to resume sales in mass email to subscribers to their site today. 

The following is an excerpt from their email:

"Online Firearm Sales Resume
Consumer reaction to the political rhetoric after the shooting in CT caused a rush of online orders at Cheaper Than Dirt! which led to the largest backlog in the company's history. Firearm sales will resume on a limited basis. The selection will increase as more firearms become available.

Every year we dive into a sea of spreadsheets to tally which of these rifles was our most popular. The results might surprise you.

If you want to be angry, let's keep it focused where it belongs - solidly aimed at those who intend to pass legislation that will not fix any problems while limiting the rights of law-abiding citizens.

Is Prepping the New Normal?
An unexpected result of the Mayan end-of-world craze was a spotlight on preparedness. People who never thought about prepping actually took a serious look at their own situation, and some even invested in preparations for a more tangible threat. See why intelligent people no longer view preppers merely as eccentrics.

 Panic Buy 2012:
Separating Fact from Fiction
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Back on March 26, 2012, we posted an article that eerily echoes the same concerns gun owners are worried about today - runs on firearms, short ammo supplies, why black rifles are selling like crazy, and are they coming for our guns?"

Gun Owners of America

"Stockman Introduces Legislation to Repeal School Gun Ban! Ask your Congressman to Cosponsor H.R. 35 “I have one concern -- protecting children from dangerous predators. By disarming qualified citizens and officials in schools we have created a dangerous situation for our children.” -- Rep. Steve Stockman (R-TX)

We told you that Rep. Steve Stockman would be the most aggressive defender of our gun rights on Capitol Hill. He proved us right on Thursday, when he introduced the Very First pro-gun bill in the Congress, in the face of a tidal wave of anti-gun hysteria. Congressman Steve Stockman has introduced H.R. 35, the Safe Schools Act of 2013 -- a bill to allow principals, teachers, and staff to possess firearms in order to defend their students. Before 1996, American kindergartners didn’t have to fear that if a crazed gunman burst into their classroom, they would be nothing but sitting ducks. Before then, they didn’t have to worry that federal law openly advertised that there would be no one to protect them. “In the 22 years before enactment of ‘gun free school zones,’ there were two mass school shootings,” Stockman said. “In the 22 years since enactment of ‘gun free schools,’ there have been 10 mass school shootings. “Not only has that bill utterly failed to protect our children, it appears to have placed them in danger,” said Stockman. Indeed, it has. Within a couple of years of the reenactment of the Gun Free School Zones Act, the Columbine tragedy occurred. And the series of copycat school massacres has shocked and saddened our country ever since. Clearly, the gun ban is not working. And it’s past time to try a new approach. It’s time to go on the offensive! It’s time to repeal gun control, rather than talk about “enforcing the gun laws on the books.”

That's Totally Jacked: New US Tax Policies

Doing some research again, I stumbled across this little Gem: ask yourself which one of these countries sounds more Communist?

Perhaps most shocking is increase in dividend tax rates, set to rise from 15% to as high as 43.4%. Individuals who start productive businesses are being heavily penalized. Individuals who save their money and put it to work investing in other people’s businesses are being heavily penalized. This says a lot about government values.

Ironically, the new government of the People’s Republic of China has decided the REDUCE their tax on dividends. Years ago it was 20%, then dropped to 10% in 2005. Effective January 1st, though, the dividend tax rate in China will drop to a mere 5%.

Tell me again… which of these nations is Communist?
