Panic buying decends on the "black rifle" market

Since the tragic events in Connecticut, buyers have deluged gun shops nationwide and have created a run on the iconic AR-15 rifle.  Sales have soared since politicians have called for a reinstatement of the so-called "Assault rifle ban".

Web sites of AR-15 manufacturer's have stated year long back logs.......Prices have doubled and even tripled on parts and accessories.

Citizens are fearful of an over reaching government.  This sounds like a  Government that does not trust it's citizenry to own AR-15's and many other firearms . A government that restricts and fears its citizens is a government that is to be mistrusted.

Citizens we must resist the so-called "assault rifle ban" at all costs.......contact your elected representatives today.

Citizens we must take control!!!!!!!

Obama calls for reinstatement of Assault Weapon ban

President Obama tonight said he’s interested in seeing an assault weapons ban reintroduced, breaking his silence on the legislation, which has persisted in spite of at least five mass shootings during his term.

Citizens we must organize and resist such legislation. Our Nation has already experimented with a similar ban that lasted ten years. From 1994-2004, there was an assault weapon ban in place that limited certain features that weapons could have....there was also a limit on magazine capacity that civilians could purchase.

As citizens, we reserve the right to exercise our Second Amendment rights and do not want government telling us what types of firearms we can possess. 

Citizens, we must take control!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Those in power must always be watched"

"Those in power must always be watched" Those words were spoken by Frank Serpico, someone who truly knows about corruption in government.  Citizens, we must be diligent in questioning both elected officials and bureaucrats......after all, it is our tax dollars that pay their salaries.

"If we can invoke no ultimate limits on the power of government, a democracy is inevitably transformed into a kleptocracy - a license to steal, a warrant for oppression."
Janice Roberts Brown

America is a democracy....we have a right to question government at all levels and speak with unfettered criticism.....When the time comes that we fear the government, then it will be time for change.

Opposition to I-95 toll plan in Virginia continues to rise

Opposition to I-95 toll plan continues to rise. The Governor says that it is a way to raise revenue without raising taxes........Citizens, our Governor needs to go back for a Civics refresher course.

Taxes and Fees are ways in which governments raise money to cover their operating expenses. Consequently, they are one in the same.......

VDOT needs to look for ways to save money....Cut the fat in their spending and not force more taxes and fees on the citizens......

Citizens, we must take control.............

Army sergeant defends skeet-shooting gold

Vincent Hancock, a 23-year-old sergeant in the U.S. Army, won his second straight Olympic gold medal in skeet shooting Wednesday – the second skeet gold medal for the Americans at this Olympics.
Hancock bolstered his impressive Olympic resume with a score of 148 in London

This is impressive to say the least. Congratulations to Sergeant Hancock for his gold medal and representing the United States. Go Army........................

Sheriff Proffitt, just answer the question....

Where was Chesterfield County Sheriff Dennis Proffitt in June of 1968......over 500,000 US soldiers were locked in an epic struggle against communism in the jungles of Vietnam.......

It is possible to draw a contrast between draft evasion and draft avoidance. Just as tax avoidance is defined as reducing or eliminating one's tax liability through legal means, draft avoidance is the elimination or mitigation of a potential conscript's military service obligation through some lawful procedure.

 The Vietnam era version of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary (1968) simply defined draft dodger as "one who avoids military service" regardless how it was done

My question to Sheriff Dennis Proffitt.......which are you.............or perhaps....where were you? The citizens would love to see your Selective Service Classifications assigned to you during the Vietnam War.......and your draft card........thank you.......

Congress told of growing threat from al-Qaida in Iraq

Our enemies are not defeated and they are rearing their ugly head once again. Al-Qaida is a plauge that must be destroyed at all costs.........

This is not the time for cowards or people who prefer to keep their heads in the sand. We must be determined to defeat these scum at all costs.............

America has had her share of enemies and we have endured.....and we shall.............

Obama looking for 'consensus' on gun issue

From USA Today  The President is seeking more gun control following the recent mass shooting in Colorado....Obama and his aides have signaled they seek to unveil new package of gun control legislation in the coming weeks.

Citizens, we do not need any more gun control legislation. We need more concealed carry laws that allow us to defend ourselves......This is stomach turning, knee-jerk reaction politics at its best.

Current concealed carry laws restrict the citizenry in many ways. Concealed carry is banned in many places where citizens might need to defend themselves. 

We need the right to free, unfettered concealed carry and unrestricted access to firearms so we can defend ourselves.

Citizens, we must take control..................................................

Sheriff Dennis Proffitt, Donnie Newton and "fear 101"

My sources at the Chesterfield Sheriff's Office have informed me of a recent meeting of the "minds".....Donnie Newton...a colonel I think, was having a meeting with Sergeant's.....concerning shortcomings at the jail........Leadership informed the Sergeant's.....that fear must be invoked as a management tool.......One of the Sargeant's said......."I can not be responsible what what happens when I am not here".....Management went on to say  yes, you can, your employees should be so scared of what you will do to them...they will be afraid to do anything wrong......LOL.....

This is how management leads at the Chesterfield County Sheriff's Office.....by fear, bullying and intimidation...Furthermore, there is zero tolerance of disscussion and dissent among the ranks.....Typical leadership of a bunch of neophytes.........Morale is low....a recent employee told me that "no one is scared of management".  Employees are not scared of retribution.....and do as they please....a total breakdown in leadership.........small wonder that there has been a recent rash of firings and demotions.......at the Sheriff's Office...Small wonder the Sheriff has created an office at the jail to better reign in on the shortcomings of management...

we must as taxpayers take control.............................

Chesterfield County Virginia Sheriff's overtime law suit.......

This one is going to cost of citizens...There has been a State of Virginia law that requires overtime pay to public safety folks on the books for over half a decade......Yet, for some strange and unknown reason......Leadership in Chesterfield, County Virginia has chose to ignore such a law............

My sources in County Government have indicated to me......that the County is ready to settle......they will file a claim with their insurance....that covers such errors and omissions........This is going to be a costly one...

My question citizens, when did leadership realize they should have been paying this overtime all along......this thing has festered.......management at the Sheriff's Office should not have been scheduling overtime.......when they realized the County was not going to pay.......this was not prudent........Continuing to run up the "overtime" tab is not good management........Do we blame Sheriff Proffitt.......Citizens, yes we do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We also must place blame for this debacle with Chesterfield county management as well.  This is a shameful waste of taxpayer dollars. Furthermore, it is humiliating to those who work in industries that pay no overtime.

This is how people manage your tax dollars...........wow and OMG!!

Citizens, we must take control.................

McChrystal says it's time to bring back the draft

Retired General Stanley McChrystal says it's time to bring back the draft and I agree.....We have strained our Active duty and Reserve forces to the breaking point over the last ten years.  Many National Guard and Reserve units have endured multiple deployments.

Its time we bring back the draft. This country has a history of men serving when called to protect us. It is only fair that all citizens have a stake in protecting America. Hopefully, if we do go back to the draft, we will not have unfair deferments that let people weasel out of their committments like what happened in Vietnam.

Many a coward shunned their duty to this country during the Vietnam War.

Sheriff Proffitt you need to get a grip..........

My sources at the Sheriff's Office, have informed me of major developments there....I know....Dennis and his unlettered cronies who draw huge salaries will be attacking me...................................

According to my latest information providers.........employees have been demoted, fired and given time in the street for a host of poor judgement...............................

Dennis, are up for the task of leading the Sheriff's Office.........I think not......certainly, not in light of the recent firings, demotions and sanctions that have been placed against your employees...............

Perhaps, your Vietnam War era education has not paid off.................................

Citizens, we must take control..............................................................

Sheriff Proffitt relocating to the Jail

My sources at the Chesterfield County Virginia, Sheriffs Office have indicated to me that the Sheriff is moving his office to the jail.......This is in light of a rash of security violations and firings that has been going on for some time now..........Apparently, employees are not completing security checks, stealing and being insubordinate to superiors.....This smells like a morale problem and leadership problem

This clearly shows that management has a host of incompetent leadership in place. By moving his office to the jail, I guess the Sheriff thinks he will have a better grasp of the situation. Sad, but true.

Citizens, we demand competent leadership at the Sheriff's Office and we are not getting it.......We must take control!!!!

Sheriff Dennis Proffitt and the facts..........

When you pound Sheriff Proffitt and his cronies with the facts.....Do they answer them? Of course not. They flip the script and try to pummel you with whats wrong with you. Do they answer your complaints or concerns.....they do not.

Instead of complying with your requests of concerns and comments, they seek to discredit anyone who dare criticize them. Proffitt forgets that this is America, and consequently a democracy. That citizens have the right to offer unfettered criticizing and as taxpayers they should. But unfortunately, those that do suffer the wrath of Proffitt and his unlettered cronies.

Citizens, as members of this great nation called America.....we have the right to criticize government at any level and for any reason. If those in power can not or will not respond to our inquiries then their time has come and they should be removed from office.

This is not Stalin's Soviet Union and is not Castro's Cuba......this is America and to those in government that are questioned by the citizens for any reason should answer up. Individuals that are in power serve the citizens......this is how this great nation has endured for so long.......

Citizens we must take control of those who seek to undermine the democratic process and liberty.

Chesterfield Sheriff's Overtime lawsuit

Citizens,we are faced with a dilemma, the Sheriff's Office has assigned overtime like there is an unlimited supply of taxpayer dough to cover the tab.  Since the economy has tanked, many in the private sector have gone without raises for years.  Many citizens work in occupations that are exempt from overtime laws.  Why should citizens who don't even receive overtime pay when they work, fund overtime for employees of Chesterfield County?  This is ridiculous and humiliating to the taxpayers...............

Citizens we must take control....................

Chesterfield County Virginia jail

Sources at the Chesterfield County Virginia jail informed me that a Deputy was suspended for 30 days for excessive use of force against an inmate.......Furthermore, the deputy in question, told other employees not to report the incident and say nothing had happened.......This is the kind of insanity I have talked about.

Why was not this Deputy fired on the spot?.......trying to cover up unethical and illegal acts has no place at the Chesterfield county jail.....This is how the leadership  treats people?.......Digusting to say the least.

Citizens we must take control!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Security Breaches at Chesterfield County Virginia Jail..........

My sources at the Chesterfield jail have come through once again........I am hearing reports of many breaches of security.......Inmates bringing in drugs and not being searched.....Deputies not searching inmates and consequently the inmates are bringing party favors  into the jail, smoking dope and watching television on a 54 inch wide screen...........An inmate overpowered a female deputy and left the courtroom lock up area and was wandering about the Circuit Court hallways looking for a way out........The female Deputy did not even have a radio with her and had left her keys laying on a table......furthermore she had another inmate call for help?  Who is supervising and training these employees.........

What the hell is going on at the Jail.........is the leadership up to the task..........I think not.......

Citizens, we must take control.....................
