'Star Power' Explains Double Standard on Guns

It's curious that for an institution that relies so heavily in guns, for their commercial value when used as entertainment props and thematic elements, to making sure their own privileged carcasses are protected, Hollywood as a whole is so overwhelmingly anti-gun... [More]

OFA's James Taylor concert discriminates against undocumented and minorities

In other words, according to OFA, it should be way easier to vote than to attend their James Taylor Backstage Pass concert. Well, after all, what’s more important?

And seeing James requires essentially the same scrutiny as buying a gun? [More]

Anti-gun fanatics continue to confirm no amount of citizen disarmament enough

“I will be happy to come down and personally take your guns,” he promises in another. “Unarmed. With a ton of video cameras. Let's see your alpha bravery in person.” [More]
This evening’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes if you want to be taken seriously as an actor (which in itself might be an oxymoron), there are better way than threatening to take peoples’ guns and then not being able to follow up on it.

Well, Knock Me Over with a Feather

“I don’t think that there’s any law that would have prevented the tragedy in Santa Barbara.” [More]

Really?

Are you sure you want to unleash the power of unrestrained personal incentive and ingenuity in such a widespread and uncontrollable manner? [More]

I'm thinking that's a pretty monstrous idea that would only be planned by domestic enemies working in concert with foreign ones.  I'm thinking anyone who participated had best be prepared for the personal accountability that will follow.

You sure you don't want to rethink this?

UPDATE: Oh thank goodness. It's not us they're going to fight. It's "climate change." Because that, as we all know,is an entirely new phenomenon for Planet Earth, and must be stopped.  Along, I suppose with Plate Tectonics.

I Hate to Say I Told You So

You say gun control doesn't work? Fine. Let's ban guns altogether. [More]
But I did. Not that it was all that difficult to see.

I note linking from blogs hits a registration block.  I've found putting the title into Google comes up with a linked result that doesn't do that when you click on it for some reason, at least for me.

I typically don't even crack the top 20, and if you look at everyone above me, you can see the priorities shared by so many that outweigh RKBA among the heirs of liberty.  Just in case you wonder how the antis manage to find so many uninformed people focused on trivia and ready to eat up their lies...

The pH Factor continues to work its magic.

And for some reason, I continue to find relevance in a line from "Apocalypse Now."

“When a police officer is confronted with threatening behavior, he or she has the fundamental, individual right of self-defense under the Second Amendment, consistent with every other citizen, to protect himself or herself, and others, from apparent and immediate harm.” [More]

Killer Resident Gunman Shoots Death Device in Front of Children!

Deputies say four siblings -- ages 22, 18, 11 and 8 -- were in the home just before 6 a.m. when the 22-year-old man heard the sound of someone breaking through a door, then saw a least two people in his home. The man got a handgun out of a safe and confronted the suspects. Deputies say the man and at least one intruder exchanged fire. [More]
The MILMs, of course, would rather the residents had been killed than armed.

Preferably with a gun, so they could start another blood dance and demand more "common sense gun safety laws."

Are You Talking to a Provocateur?

Or even just a compromised snitch? [More]

Be careful. If they're going to pick any fruit, let it be low-hanging.

I had an idea a few years back, essentially a certification that associates are not working for law enforcement in any capacity.  I was told by those I asked to review it that it wouldn't work because cops can lie.

There appear to be limits.

Where my idea was different is it involved having the assurance notarized, meaning the person making it would be providing identification to ensure he's who he said he was, and attesting to it on a notarized statement.  So anyone putting together a group of patriots for training and practice could have a notary show up at the meeting to witness and record signatures.

I still don't know if that would work, but would think, at a minimum, most snitches wouldn't know the law and what they could or could not formally do in that regard.  Those people might hesitate out of fear of setting themselves up on criminal charges if their statement were later proven false, meaning anyone who has to put if off is someone to be wary of.

Any lawyers care to weigh in?

Today's Five-Minute Activism

Three easy steps:
  1. Read.
  2. Do.
  3. Share.
In re contacting Ted Cruz and Rand Paul, I find it easier and faster to send them the GOA link using Twitter.  Like so:

See how easy that was?  All that's left is to share on other social media such as Facebook, like I keep harping on, and which will literally only take seconds.

Thusly:


Now if only they'd create a quick and easy to use form encouraging gun owners with total crap reps to contact (and support) good reps in up-for-grabs states and districts.

Maybe when he comes back we can thank him for his service!
“We don’t condone his behavior. We don’t want this kind of behavior from our police officers and we’re hoping that he learned his lesson,” said Jeff Follmer, president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association.
Well, that'll certainly teach him!

Yeah, right, a concealed carrier might not have made a difference. Then again he might have. You don't know, but you're parroting the antis, and resorting to a "drunk Bubbas" slur, makes me wonder just who you really are.

Gosh,Lucifer Upside-Down 666 is against non-government guns.  And he bravely, not to mention originally, albeit anonymously, calls people who disagree inadequately endowed, nuts and cowards.

Maybe I've been wrong about this.

Agency Rule List: Spring 2014

Here are the administration's proposed gun-related regulatory actions for DoJ/ATF. I have not had time to review these, not to see what other agencies/departments are doing along these lines.  I offer this without comment for information purposes only, and with acknowledgement that this is the kind of stuff we need more people keeping an eye and reporting on, because I certainly won't have time without ignoring other priorities of equal or greater importance.

Blaming NRA over killings shows no amount of laws enough for anti-gunners

They’ve not only shown us their end goals, and what a ridiculous lie every one of them who parrots the ubiquitous “No one wants to take your guns” talking point is telling, but they’ve also relieved us of any obligation to respond to them except in kind. [More]

Santa Barbara killer’s family ‘staunchly anti-gun’

Lawyer Alan Shifman, who represents killer Elliot Rodger’s father, director Peter Rodger, “said the family is ‘staunchly against guns’ and supports gun-control laws,” the report revealed. [More]

This evening’s Gun Rights Examiner report looks at what happens when the product of an anti-gun family ignores a host of “gun control” laws in a state rated tops by the citizen disarmament demanders.

Guns & Ammo state rankings highlight differences in people and parties

Because of perceived credibility simply from being an influential political media organization, its findings are taken more seriously by some than, say, a Mark Dice petitioning video, which is really too bad, because at least his efforts demonstrate how astonishingly ignorant and unable to critically think many respondents can be.  [More]

Author, Hollywood screenwriter and veteran says he could kill again over guns

"A couple years ago, a gun nut I know was 'playfully' asking me why I didn't get a gun and do some target shooting, which he claimed was 'fun,'" Top Commenter Thomas Cleaver recalled. "I asked him 'If I get a gun, will it be OK to shoot you? Don't worry, I've shot and killed people before, and I'm way past getting upset at seeing you lying on the floor with your brains splattered on the wall. Been there long ago.' [More]

GunCoin

I got notification yesterday I was now being followed on Twitter by The GunCoin Project.

I've been following some of the Bitcoin ups and downs and arguments, albeit not very closely, and can't claim enough knowledge to weigh in on the replacement privacy currency vs. speculative investment debate, but that's not what concerned me. Understand that terms like "peer-to-peer" and "open source software" make my eyes glaze over. You're dealing with a guy who used to code assembly parts lists on 80-column cards and take them to a department called "Keypunch." 

I had  a more basic question, because I figure if I'm going to be SMFFs (social media and you figure out the rest) with these folks, I should make sure they're really on the up-and-up from an RKBA point of view.  So I emailed them:
Hi, I just got your Twitter follow notice and followed back.

I'd like to know more about the people behind your venture, your pro-gun bonafides, etc.

There's not much in your website's "About" section.

Ditto, whois registry doesn't really tell much.

I think it would serve you well to give Second Amendment supporters details, as we see stories like the one about the head of the firm that owns Sportsman Channel and Guns & Ammo magazine being a big Democrat supporter who believes in gun control, and it's pretty natural for people to be leery, and even to wonder if some of the money they spend will end up supporting politicians working against them.

Care to disclose who you are and what your gun rights backgrounds are?
Here's the response:

Thanks for reaching out to us.  I can offer you some more information about us and what we stand for.
My name is [REDACTED] and I am the Guncoin Project Manager.  I am a lifelong Alaskan that has been hunting and shooting all my life.  I believe (as does the team) very strongly in our 2nd Amendment rights.  Honestly, gun control efforts make me sick to my stomach, and that will never change.  We do not currently *support* any political group monetarily.  However, if we were to donate funds or support in any way for a group, it would definitely be Republican.  In fact, we would be quite interested in mutual support options.  Now, do not get me wrong, I am not *against* the Democratic party.  I agree with both sides on a lot of issues...  BUT, our 2nd Amendment rights trump other issues for me and the only logical choice if I had to pick to support is Republican.
The Guncoin Project really came about after a lot of dealings with Payment Processors when trying to sell firearms and firearms related goods.  As you may know, it is just a nightmare dealing with these companies and trying to get payment processing set up for a firearms related business.  That real need for easy transactions, coupled with the opportunity to support gun rights in a public way, led us to create Guncoin.
We have not been very public about our identities because we have already received a slough of threats and anti-gun nonsense.  We have families just like everyone else and do not need that kind of stress to deal with.  We are just regular guys with regular lives trying to fill a niche with Guncoin.
I hope I have provided the information you were wanting.
Thank You,
- Guncoin Support

He said I could repro. his email in total. Because of that last bit, I'm not including  a name. That said, it seems to me they're at least sincere about the part that concerned me.  If you're interested in what they offer and want to find out more on your own, you now have a link.

Ohio's DeWine asked to ensure open carry training after shooting jokes by police
