This is, apparently, old information. Cummins claims to have no current position on the gun issue. A former CEO (73-94), Henry Schacht, was very anti-gun and a huge contributor to anti-gun groups.
When will MagPul leave CO:
On the thirty-second day of the thirteenth month on the eighth day of the week,
On the twenty-fifth hour and the sixty-first minute, we'll find all things that we seek.

This is the usual anti-gun mantra, you don't want me to have nukes, you don't want me to Sarin, do you? It's absolute nonsense, a blind person having a gun is not a danger by them merely having it any more than it is for a sighted person to have it. If your blind you're subject to the same laws...
The New Republic should start billing itself as a humor magazine with this side-splitter:
"But it's still the national fight that matters most, "by far," says Alec MacGillis at The New Republic. "There is only so much impact state laws can have when guns are so easily trafficked from states...

It's not the same, I know you have to keep up the pretense for rhetorical purposes, but its just not the same. Not that I necessarily agree with what was done here, but I see that the defendant didn't stop at mere speech, he was an active participant in abetting the illegal conduct.
So, if there is a ban and Kirk says to you, steveh_131 how should I evade this gun ban, and you say, give me $1000 (actually, he was charging $1000/day, ouch) and I"ll tell exactly what to do, then yes, you'd be sharing adjoining cells.
You couldn't have posted this 10 minutes ago so I could save $1.50 in PACER fees??? Anyway, he was convicted of violating this:
18 USC § 1505 - Obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and committees...
No, not really, the article is correct, he's merely a strongman dictator and leaves the blood to others. He's much like Obama, Obama wears suits and let's his ATF henchmen walk guns to Mexico to be turned around to be used on U.S. Border Patrol agents and to influence policy debates. If Obama...
