Conn. police chief channels Emily Litella with gun permit suspension fiasco

“Oh, that’s very different,” she would reply when told of her error. “Never mind.” [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes an old comic routine that's not funny at all when the wrong person performs it in front of a captive audience.

We're the Only Ones Snappy Enough

It's not like the "Only Ones" are a new phenomenon. [More]

The judge sounded cool.

I'm Afraid!

So whines Lynda Panties-In-a-Waddington. [More]

Since when are my rights determined by some ignorant emotional defective's neuroses?

We're the Only Ones Non-Negotiable Enough

Note the victim's name is somehow deemed appropriate public information to be released, but we never learn the name of "the detective." [More]

So much for our crusading government watchdogs. That's some "investigative journalism" there.

I wonder if his bosses would agree that identifying a detective this ignorant of the law who uses rudeness, intimidation and escalation of violence to kidnap a citizen and steal property is information the public paying for it all has a right to know.

Here it is, no thanks to NBC:  Detective David Margentino.

It seems how a "different detective" rolled his car is also worth learning more about, and whether the intimidation was related to the "single-car accident" involving one of their own. (Other sites are floating the talking point that seeing the visible license plate was private information that could have upset family members, which if you take that to its logical conclusion shuts down sharing all on-the-scene disaster photography without prior police vetting and approval). And Joseph D. Coronato shows why he deserves being "Prosecutor of the Year," what with saying the incident "could have been handled better by everyone involved."

Yeah, way to blame the victim for insisting on his rights being respected. What more needs to be said besides "New Jersey"?

Just in case anyone wants to pay their respects:

Rewards Plan

Yep, it pays well to be a subversive. [More]

I wonder how many gun owners knew about him, but gave aid and comfort anyway.

Yeah, I get you can't avoid everything, but some offenses are so egregious they merit being made examples of -- and it only takes a few to set an example.

Canned Laughter

For that special rights infringer in your life...

I wonder what it would take to customi... oh...

I don't think a boom or machine gun fire would come off as very convincing on a small sound module like that. But you could still make a point....

Wow. Some disturbing comments over there.  Lotta @$$holes on YouTube.

Colorado Bill Update

WarOnGuns Correspondent CYDL tells us some bills to repeal bad edicts and extend the right to self-defense are in the offing, and has compiled a contact list. [More]

I'd like to see this further refined to separate persuadable reps from "safe" antis who don't give a damn, and also to include social media contacts, such as Twitter and Facebook pages. I'm working on a national list along those lines that could be adapted to state use.

In the mean time, if you're from Colorado, use and share the linked file.  If you're not from Colorado, share it with any friends you have there and urge them to make use of it and pass it on.

In Other News, White Non-"Progressives" are All Basically Klan Members

Matthew Rozsa said it, I believe it, that settles it. [More]

The funny thing is, I actually agree that pride based on skin color is racist. Any skin color. Like a man once said, what's important is content of character.

Anyone who tells you differently is a cultural vandal with a subversive agenda.

Ain't that right, Matt?

Never Again! Unless the "Authorities" Say "No"...

The Times of Israel Sunday quoted Rabbi Menachem Margolin, the director general of the European Jewish Association, who said in a statement that he was appealing to European interior ministers to ease gun permits for Jews and to offer self-defense training for Jewish community leaders. [More]
And if the "ministers" refuse?  Besides, why should just Jews be given special privileges? And will there be any distinction between the observant and the secular...?

I wonder what it would take to get our domestic "Kapos for Kristallnacht" to reverse polarity on their "demands," at least as far as their own self-interests lie...

We're the Only Ones Concocting Enough

An innocent man was ripped from his bathtub in a surprise no-knock raid, then suffered an onslaught of beatings, electric shocks, concussion grenades, and rubber bullets. The man spent 3 years and his entire life savings attempting to vindicate himself from the false charges and malicious prosecution which followed. [More]
And the prosecutor "stands by his decision..."

Oh, look: He says he's "the conservative choice." And just look at all those "Only One" endorsements.

Thank goodness. I'd much rather the boot kicking my face in had an "R" on the heel.
