Get away from me, you faciste meatheads!!

And they sound oh-so-rational, as they assume every adult intending to carry out his most basic responsibility of self-defense is a meth-crazed jihaddi gang-banger…

Ammunition Accountability is a newly forming group of ammunition coding technology supporters.  Our group includes gun crime victims clearly clear thinkers thinking clearly, industry representatives head-shot drool-cuppers, law enforcement uh huh, public officials window lickers, public policy experts PhD window lickers, and more Georgie Sorrosssss. We are working together to pass legislation to make ammunition coding technology a reality.  Nya Nya—g’head.  *throw* yer damn guns at us.

Ammunition coding technology works by laser etching the back of each bullet with an alpha-numeric serial number.  Then when a potential criminal

That would be you.

purchases a box of 9mm cartridges,

Cuz, as we all know, gang-bangers and Jihad Johnnies always stop off at Cabela’s to pick out the very best…

the box of ammunition and the bullets’ coding numbers would be connected to the purchaser

and they give their real IDs, too.  Every time. Proudly.

in a statewide database.  When a bullet is found at a crime scene,

NB:  When. Not if - when…

the code on the bullet can be read with a simple magnifying glass and then be run through a statewide database to determine who purchased the ammunition and where, providing a valuable investigative lead.

Assuming, as they seem to, that, of course the legal purchaser isthe goblin mowing down the school children and attendant elderly nuns.

If the ammo was ripped off repurposed, that “valuable investigative lead” instantly becomes a rope-handled shovel.

Have you people even visited our planet?

There are many ways that you can help us solve gun crime around the nation.  For more information about our organization or information about the technology contact bla bla bla

I’d recommend the very first way is to emulate the Great State of Texas and allow open-carry of handguns.

LawDog puts it way better than I could—with years of experience to back up his observations.

What is my position on allowing the open carry of handguns in the Great State of Texas?

I’m all for it.

Options are good. Anything that gives law-abiding citizens more options and choices as to how they go about their everyday business is a Good Thing.

Oh, I’ve heard all the arguments: “Oh, sweet zombie Jeebus! It’ll be the Wild West all over again!”

First off, the open-carrying Wild West had a murder rate considerably less than that of a modern big city—so the return of the Good Old Days (and their lower murder rate) would actually be a Good Thing.

...

Case(s) in point: Vermont has NO LAWS whatsoever regulating the carry of firearms, neither does Alaska. Citizens can open carry in those states without any interference by way of the Government—at all.

When was the last time you heard of multiple street-corner gunfights in either of those two states?

In addition, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Arizona, New Mexico, Kentucky, West Virgina and Virginia already allow the open carry of firearms with neither permit nor licence required to do so.

I don’t know about y’all, but when it comes to running gun battles on street corners, South Dakota and Wyoming aren’t the first places that comes to mind.

Washington, DC and Chicago, now, do come to mind—but open carry is forbidden to citizens in those places, so they really don’t count.

...[RTWT]

So that’s one observation from “law enforcement.” Here’s another.

As a Police Officer it is not my job to protect you. Why you might ask? Because I probably won’t be there when whatever happens to you happens! My job is to establish the chain of events, collect evidence, apprehend the suspect and give the Prosecuting Attorney the case he needs to punish the wrongdoer.

...

[again, RTWT.  srsly.]

So unless I’m able to concealed-carry my own private cop [or Oprah-quality, Blackwater Personal Protection Agent] at all times—even while home in my jammies— it’s my job to protect myself.  Yet this bunch of window-lickin’ drool-cuppers just outright assumes that anyone purchasing “a box of 9mm cartridges” i>IS “a potential criminal.”

And look! They’re starting legislation in states all over the nation.  And they’re soliciting viiictim stories to use to convince the average gullible moron Uh-bama voter with stellar logyk like this:

Each year there are many homicides from senseless gun violence in America and perhaps more astounding is the fact that 30% of those crimes go unsolved.  Many of these cases could be solved if ammunition coding technology were implemented.

No, you addlepated mooncalves.  I doubt very much if even one [1] more crime would be solved with your hi-tech ammo tats.

Let me repeat for the brain donors:  Criminals do not acquire their weaponry legally. That is why they’re called “criminals,” see?

I have a counter-recommendation:  Enforced Carry.  Yes:  every able-bodied, sane citizen of legal age will be henceforth required to carry, properly maintain and practice with a handgun of their preference.  I predict a sudden increase in handgun deaths—99% of which will be adjudicated “goblin: needed killin’” —after which deaths will plummet and remain near zero.  Except for Chicago.

Side benefit:  fewer line jumpers and cell-fone loud-talkers.
