That's All, Folks!

At least for today.

I know I have plenty of email tips, but it's late and I have family in town from out of state. I'm off to enjoy the rest of my day.

Feel free to explore around here for something to read, and any help you can give to spread the word on this (and don't forget to send your email!) will be appreciated.

We're the Only Ones Monkeying Around Enough

The law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Officer Justin Barrett referred to the black scholar as a “jungle monkey"...[More]

Forget "Aspiring Rapper." How About "Aspiring Citizen?"

Under Florida law, it's illegal to threaten harm against any public servant. [More]
I thought it was pretty much illegal anywhere to actually threaten anyone. So now anyone who is a "public servant" is also an "Only One" in this regard, with special immunities not afforded you and me?

And you'll note they can still threaten us?

Not that I'm particularly sympathetic to rappers, "aspiring" or otherwise, but I didn't see from this exactly who he threatened.

Got lyrics?

Because if it's just a generality and you can't say political traitors deserve to be hanged from lampposts, well, some of us might also say anyone attempting to enforce that will deserve whatever resistance they get.

That's actionable?

I wonder if they also prosecuted Warner Bros. Records, or if they just pick on people who don't have the means to fight back?

Pelosi Calls Her Financial Backers 'Villains'

If I felt justified in publicly denouncing someone as a villain, I wouldn't take a dime off of them. I couldn't. How could I share in what I considered to be ill-gotten gains and not share in their guilt? What kind of hypocrite could do that, all the while knowing they're consistently in the "Top 5" of her industry supporters? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner looks at the way "villains" share the spoils, and presents Spooky Madame Speaker with a dilemma--but only if others join me and help make others aware.

Tell a friend?

Have you read the latest from all the Gun Rights Examiners?

This Day in History: July 31
