ACK: Host Senator Jim Kyle has just announced that Democratic Leadership Council Chair Harold Ford will join his “Nashville Conversation” patterned on the DLC’s “National Conversation”, the latest of which was held in Nashville. If any of you go, you can ask them about the DLC’s funding, financing and setting up the anti-gun American Hunters […]

News services publishing press releases from the American Hunters and Shooters Association? Looks like it.

Over at NewWest, The American Hunters And Shooters Association is trying to deny that it is a false flag front for anti-gunners trying to appear pro-gun. And that they are shills for the Democrat Leadership Council. Seems they blame John Lott. John Lott is not the one who put the piece of that puzzle together. […]

So, as mentioned before, the American Hunters And Shooters Association has endorsed Obama (no surprise since that is what it was set up to do). So, AHSA shill Ray Schoenke takes to the radio to tell everyone why hunters and shooters (who those crazy AHSA directors like to call whackos and extremists) should not fear […]

The American Hunters and Shooters Association has endorsed Barack Obama. Of course they did. That’s what they were created for.

Since they’re informed. The American Hunters and Shooters Association is running ads that pop up at pro-gun sites. You know, real pro-gun sites.

The American Hunters and Shooters Association doesn’t seem to think that banning guns is, err, banning guns. And that such bans are reasonable.

That’s just those self-defense whackos talking. We talked yesterday about how people will call you crazy for thinking someone from the .gov would come take your guns. Up next is American Hunters and Shooters Association endorsed (and only winner, just ask them, they’re very proud) Claire McCaskill: “When’s the last time a Democrat knocked on […]

The American Hunters And Shooters Association once claimed 25,000 members. They seem to have lost some: Pushed hard by skeptical writers in the audience, Schoenke declined to say how many members AHSA had, but said that more than a thousand members paid membership dues in the past year.

We’re doomed because stupid people make decisions on matters of the economy. And your average Joe thinks it’s a good idea For instance, a bit back Maxine Waters wanted to get all commie with oil companies. Of course, she couldn’t quite say socialize. But there it was. In her heart of hearts. A threat for […]

Maybe. The wife has hit it off with some lady from daycare. And we went to their place for dinner the other night. Talking to the hubby, he told me he was going to the gun show the next day. I told him I’d like to go with. He said Oh, you know guns? I […]

The Boston Globe has a piece on may issue concealed carry being onerous. No, really: Gun owners are complaining that local police chiefs have too much leeway in considering applications for the state’s concealed weapons license, creating a frustrating patchwork of gun regulations that vary from town to town. In a letter to the state […]

Mr. Eblen penned an article singing the praises of the American Hunters And Shooters Association. Apparently, people let him know that this group was a sham. And he responds with this tripe: As expected, I heard an earful about my column last week on a new gun group that opposes the National Rifle Association’s hard-line […]

Ray Schoenke of the American Hunters and Shooters Association is over at the HuffPo criticizing, and I am not making this up, John McCain over his pro-gun street cred. And being Schoenke, he pulls a a big whopper: We know most gun owners do support background checks according to a survey of gun owners conducted […]

That’s how many members The American Hunters and Shooters Association is claiming in this article where NRA members are called terrorists. I dunno if terrorist is a step up from whacko and extremist.

A lot of interesting stuff over at War on Guns regarding our old pals at the American Hunters and Shooters Association. Says David: Bottom line for the foundation: gross receipts just under $250K, and all the principles (Rosenthal, Vince, Shoenke, Hickok) say they work 5 hours or less per week for no compensation. But bear […]

So, the fake pro-gun rights group set up by the Democrat Leadership Council to make Democrats look pro-gun (when they could just be pro-gun) The American Hunters and Shooters Association didn’t deliver. Poor Bob Ricker. They spent $500K and all they got was a website. Oh, and McCaskill, who they’ll quickly remind you of and […]

Looks like the endorsement from the American Hunters and Shooters Association is not quite paying off.

So, from my referral logs last night, I learn that the anti-gun Democratic Leadership Council’s shill group diguised as a pro-gun group American Hunters And Shooters Association has endorsed Barack Machine Wash Warm Obama for President. Gasp! Swoon! Of course they did. That’s what they were created for. Update: A reminder from Sebastian: Let’s remember […]

When your record on guns can only hurt you in a national race, what do you do? Create a shill group, of course: Today, our campaign announced the membership of our Pennsylvania Sportsmen and Sportswomen for Obama Steering Committee. Avid hunters and anglers from around the state, the committee members lauded Obama for his understanding […]

The anti-gun shill group American Hunters and Shooters Association has said of Barack Herbert Walker Obama: ” ‘The gun vote matters,’ says Ray Schoenke, founding president of the American Hunters and Shooters Association. And in Pennsylvania, he says, gun owners who follow key Washington legislation aimed at limiting ownership are moving in Obama’s direction because […]

A quick shoutout to Bob Ricker of the American Hunters and Shooters Association. I see you reading. Going on about 15 minutes now. Anything good?

I got a comment from Bob Ricker, executive director of the anti-gun American Hunters and Shooters Association. Go say ‘hi’ if you want since he says that since that post only has 7 comments, there’s not many gun rights supporters. Ah, to live in Bob’s world.

Bob Ricker of the American Hunters and Shooters Association is commenting on blogs. Says he of the American Hunters and Shooters Association‘s target audience: I think it should be clear from my comments here and on other “whacko” blogs that AHSA is reaching out to a more educated, sophisticated and straight thinking hunter and shooter […]

Don’t make Petey angry. You wouldn’t like him when he’s angry. He might shoot you. In other news, The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Ownership and The American Hunters and Shooters Association were sitting in a tree. And someone I know who watched the Heller argument said Fenty looked like someone shot his dog. Apparently, […]

The American Hunters and Shooters Association is getting press coverage again, this time in the Washington Post. No mention of their Executive Director Bob Ricker calling us non-hunting self-defense types Whackos. And they call NRA too absolutist. Of course, I am shocked that the article mentions that the American Hunters and Shooters Association is an […]

Ray Schoenke, of the American Hunters and Shooters Association, has decided to abandon all pretense of actually being a pro-gun group. Seems to be screaming that they want to be relevant. I’d address the screed but Sebastian already has: Wait, am I reading something by AHSA or the Brady Campaign? Hard to tell.

One of the biggest lies often told. In fact, the whole bit is one lie after another. I think it’s safe to assume that the American Hunters and Shooters Association is giving up any possibility of having credibility with gun owners.

Thirdpower addresses the anti-gun American Hunters and Shooters Association’s Heller brief: Well, they decided to file an Amici brief in support of Heller. Sounds good right? They want to have the ban overturned. They have lots of former military big wigs that supposedly wrote it and we must support the military. The problem? They oppose […]

The Bush DOJ, which reversed decades of policy by adopting the individual rights view of the second amendment, has decided to screw over gun owners in Heller. They say it’s an individual right but, you know, not really. Update: Yeah, betrayed does cover it. Speaking of Heller and since the .gov is using your dollars […]
