Psalm 92:1-4 NKJ sent from Frank Tallerico for week of Aug 5, 2012

A song for the Sabbath Day: 1. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; 2. To declare Your loving kindness in the morning, and you faithfulness every night, 3. On an instrument of ten strings, on a lute, and on a harp, with harmonious sound. 4. For you Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands.

Public comments taken on critical habitat plan (for Lost River and Shortnose suckers) through Aug 27.

Radical environmentalists push to destroy (Klamath) dams to reopen salmon spawning habitat, Human Events by Audry Hudson, posted to KBC 8/5/12. ” ‘This is not about saving the salmon. This is about this bizarre new religion of the left, which reasons that mother Earth is suffering a terrible infestation of human beings and must be restored to its pristine, pre-historic condition. The only practical problem with that is it requires restoring the human population to its pristine, pre-historic condition. And that is not going to end well,’ (Congressman) McClintock said.”

Drought, Crops, and Government Interference, by Oregon Senator Doug Whitsett, posted to KBC 8/5/12. “The combined effects of widespread drought conditions, and ill-advised government interference in the free market, have created the potential for a perfect inflationary storm for domestic food prices…”

PNP comment: CA. Senator Doug LaMalfa from 4th District has already voiced a defening “NO” to this amendment. We must contact other “sitters on the fence” Senators and tell them to vote no. — Editor Liz Bowen

Warning: SB 249 is California’s Worst Gun Confiscation Threat in 20 Years!

Contact your state Legislator TODAY!

Senator Leland Yee of San Francisco now trying to ban and confiscate more so-called “assault weapons.”

Originally, Senate Bill 249 was a quiet agriculture bill that passed in the California Senate back in May.  With sneaky back-door tactics, Senator Yee turned the bill into a gun ban monster.

SB 249, as amended, would make a small but profound change to the definition of what constitutes a detachable magazine for a semiautomatic firearm.  By doing so, hundreds of thousands of semi-automatic rifles, which were legally sold in California over the last decade, would become illegal on July 1, 2013.

The existing definition of detachable magazine was used by Governor Brown’s administration for the four years he served as Attorney General.

Senator Yee’s bill has no provisions to allow permitting, licensing or reimbursement for the loss of valuable property.  Worse yet, the bill doesn’t require a public notice program to advise owners of this change in state law.

Thousands of owners could be arrested for inadvertent violations.  If you own an affected firearm, your only choices would be to destroy it, surrender it to a law enforcement agency, sell it out of state or have it confiscated at the time of your arrest!  Which option would you prefer?
Call AND E-mail your state legislators TODAY and urge them to OPPOSE SB 249

Contact information for your state Senator can be found Senators

Contact information for your state Assembly Member can be found Assembly

Also, contact Governor Jerry Brown and urge him to tell the state Legislature that he stands by the existing definition of detachable magazine, just as he did when he was Attorney General.
Governor Brown can be reached at 916-445-2841 and by e-mail at:  http://gov.ca.gov/m_contact.php

Please forward this alert to your family, friends and fellow gun owners across California and urge them to do the same.

California is going to need EVERYONE to help fend off this attack!

INFORMATION UPDATE — California Legislature returns to session on Monday. Stay tuned for further alerts.

From Ron Glynn in Wolf Creek, Oregon:

Dear fellow citizens of Josephine County:

I had the privilege to attend the Constitutional Sheriffs’ last event in Crescent City, California on July 14, 2012. It was extremely informative and encouraging to hear from 6 county sheriffs. I was extremely impressed by quality and character of these men. I highly encourage you to attend this upcoming event in Grants Pass next month.
