Kamusta na po Mr. President?

Minamahal naming Presidente Aquino,Kamusta ang target shooting sa Antipolo? Kamusta yung PPSA competitions? Sarap noh? Mabuti pa kayo nakaka baril pa. Kami, mga pangkaraniwang bumabaril, hanggang himas-himas nalang kami ng baril namin. Mula nung nag-umpisa ang term ninyo, sunod-sunod po na regulasyon ni Chief PNP Verzosa, na lalong hinihigpit ang pag lisensya at pagdadal ng baril. Balang araw Mr. President, baka sumali kayo sa PPSA event tapos kayo nalang ang nandun sumipot. Wala na ibang shooter ang makarating.Yung PNP Circular No. 08-2010 ni Gen Verzosa ay epektibong ibinalik ang batas militar sa Pilipinas. Kulang nalang sabihin, isauli namin yung mga licensed guns namin. Bakit? Dahil sa sobrang higpit na at hirap ng pag lilisenya at pagkuha ng permit-to-carry, wala na makapag renew ng license or permit-to-carry. Sa August 18, 2010 meron pang kasunod na pirmahan ang PNP ng mga mas lalong paghigpit sa mga pagmamay-ari at pagdala ng baril. Continue Reading

President NoyNoy Aquino states on radio that he is against the gun ban

President-elect Noynoy Aquino was just interviewed on radio earlier today. He categorically stated that he was against the gun ban extension. He further stated that the gun ban affects only legitimate gun owners and not criminals who do not respect the ban. He also cited the numerous people who were killed during the gun ban which proves that the gun ban does not work. We support the President-elect for his pro-gun stand, which is an accord with reason and logic. PROGUN has always been against the imposition of any type of gun ban, and we are glad that we finally have a President who shares the same views.We salute and support you Mr. President! It only proves that our votes and suport for your campaign were not fruitless. Mabuhay kayo Noynoy! Continue Reading
