Gun rights advocates are expressing concern over the Obama administration's plans for a new gun control push six months after the shooting in Tucson, Ariz., and they warn that attempts to curb gun rights could provoke a political fight.
>In the US, guns are easier to get than pot. So shut up.

After weeks of stalemate, Libyan rebels in the town of Misrata are once again fighting their way westwards. But progress is slow. The city itself is still surrounded, and the only way in or out is by sea.

Gun Rights Advocates Wary of Coming Obama Measures in Wake of Tucson Shooting

Libya: Frontline folklore keeps Misrata rebels going
After weeks of stalemate, Libyan rebels in the town of Misrata are once again fighting their way westwards. But progress is slow. The city itself is still surrounded, and the only way in or out is by sea.

>Libya suffered a revolution in 89 and this guys are trying a new one. Which one is BBC talking about?
Their message to Col Muammar Gaddafi and the world was this: Their city may still be surrounded, but Misratans will not give up the fight.
It is "the day freedom came to the people. You can see people are happy, people are excited. Even though there is lack of food, but people are happy because they have their freedom back."
Tripoli Street is Misrata's central artery. These days, you will find children playing on an abandoned tank, turning its turret to right and left, to squeals of delight.
