Gun owners accuse L.A. of creating new ‘Yellow Badges’
- Written by World Net Daily
GOA Chairman Tim Macy was commenting on the approval by the Los Angeles City Council of a measure that forces city contractors to reveal any ties to the National Rifle Association.
With little debate, the measure passed 10-0.
Councilman Mitch O’Farrell claimed the resolution was necessary because the gun lobby has been the biggest “roadblock” to passing gun control legislation.
However, Macy said it’s just political intimidation.
“How strange,” Macy said, “that the L.A. City Council is not even requiring contractors to disclose ties with terrorist groups. This just proves the anti-gun animus of the city council.”
He said the council’s move “is clearly an effort to demonize gun owners. We’ve seen this kind of official intimidation in recent history, and it’s never a pretty sight.”
The Jews were forced to wear “Yellow Badges” in Germany “in an effort to isolate and dehumanize them,” Macy noted.
“Isn’t this exactly what the L.A. City Council is trying to do?”

KCBS in Los Angeles reported the contractors still have the opportunity to do business with the city, but they now would be required “to disclose any contracts or sponsorships” with the NRA.
“For the sake of transparency, the city’s residents and stakeholders deserve to know how the city’s public funds are being spent, and whether taxpayer funds are being spent on contractors that have contractual or sponsorship ties with the NRA,” the motion stated.
It’s just the latest anti-gun move by L.A.
In August, a plan was approved to make possessing a blueprint for 3D firearms a crime, and last year the council was forced to repeal a ban on “ultracompact” handguns after gun rights advocates pointed out that state law pre-empted such a local ordinance.
In 2015, the council approved a ban on high-capacity gun magazines with more than 10 rounds.

US Troops Deploy ‘Overwhelming Force’ Against Iceland’s Beer Supplies
U.S. troops landed in Iceland last week ahead of the start the largest NATO military exercise since the Cold War, and apparently, they left their mark in the most appropriate way possible: by drinking every last beer in the nation’s capital.
A significant number of bars in downtown Reykjavík were forced to make emergency beer runs under the onslaught of thirsty American sailors and Marines in town for the start of Trident Juncture 18, Iceland Magazine reports.
Local media estimate that 6,000 and 7,000 U.S. military personnel exhausted beer cellars across the Icelandic capital in the span of a single weekend.

The details from Iceland Magazine are, frankly, hilarious (emphasis ours):
The local news site Vísir reports that the brewery Ölgerð Egils Skallagrímssonar, which makes the popular Gull, had to send out emergency supplies to the bars. According to the sources of Vísir, the soldiers preferred local beers over imports and were very willing to sample different microbrews as well as the more popular standard lagers.
The local blogger Eiríkur Jónsson spoke to restaurateurs who said they had never experienced a similar situation. Bar owners who ran out of beer tried to solve the issue by borrowing from bars which were better stocked, whilemembers of the delivery team from Ölgerðin were called out to help the bar owners cope, but “they were fighting an overwhelming force,” as Eiríkur puts it.
Nearly 50,000 troops from 29 NATO allies (plus Sweden and Finland) are participating in Trident Juncture 18, backed up by 65 naval vessels, 150 aircraft, and more than 10,000 vehicles — all of which makes for thirsty work. And if anything, Trident Juncture will leave NATO leaders with one important strategic conclusion: When all else fails, you can always drink the enemy under the table.
