See? He's Not Anti-Gun!

Under Heavily-Armed Police Guard, Bernie Sanders Addresses Anti-Gun Rally [More]
It's a time-honored tradition with socialist "leaders" around the world.

A Determined Minority

12.3% of Americans sometimes carry handguns, 5.4% of Americans carry most or all the time, & 2.4% carry all the time [More]
What good is it if you have it but don't actually have it?  And who would answer such a question for a stranger?

Although I guess I'm one to talk: I never carry. Hell, I don't even own a handgun.

GUN BAN BALLOT MEASURE ANNOUNCED

Anti civil rights groups are meeting tonight to launch  a ballot measure to ban modern firearms and feeding devices. The far left Augustana Lutheran Church will be the location for the kick off. [More]
I don't suppose anyone has looked into their tax exempt status, the way the antis do to us...?

Lies of Omission



It's now available to rent for a 48-hour period fromVimeo. [More]

Submitted for Your Consideration

Gun Control: Concealed Carry Legislation in the 115th Congress [More]
I have not had time to read this and probably won't until the weekend.

This is another one of those reports prepared for our representatives and denied to We the People who pay for it.

Three Against One

Four if you count the "moderator."  [More]

But it'll be "Beyond the Politics." Honest.

I've taken on worse odds -- but it was via written arguments.  The dynamics of doing it live with no chance to consider the best way to respond make this a dangerous venture, particularly if audience hostility factors into things.

Phil is showing a lot of courage here and I wish him well. I would not participate in a live forum this stacked and expect anyone wanted to give what I had to say a fair hearing.

"Profiles in Apathy" and citizenship malpractice... [More]

Ah well. Someone's gotta be cannibal food.

About Damn Time One of These Lottery Winners Made Good on Their Promises

UPDATE: Looks like Page Six jumped the gun: "Matt Damon DENIES he has bought a home in Australia and wants to family to leave US over Trump's policies" [More]

Damn-- just when I thought we got some good news for a change.
---

Matt Damon moving family to Australia because of Trump [More]
Fitting, seeing what an unAmerican dolt this stage prop is.

Let's hope he renounces his citizenship and unwittingly becomes a "prohibited person" when he comes back to work. If a studio armorer hands him a real firearm with blanks, it will be a felony.

The Law

If you have not yet had a chance to read Frédéric Bastiat's classic essay, bookmark this and make sure to get to it. [More]

It's a cinch none of the Marx for Our Lives kids have. Nor their "teachers."

If you have read it, revisiting it is every bit as rewarding.

All Decked Out for the Blood Dance

Basically, the left had money and infrastructure ready to go for an all-out assault on guns and the NRA, they just needed the right moment — the right victims. [More]
The main problem is NRA, which should be Coordination Central, is a bigger concern for some of us than the people calling them terrorists.

Typical Lying Marxist

“Welcome Crowder fools to my page,” he wrote in a Facebook post Tuesday. “If you think harassing me on my page will get me to stop being an activist against bigots, you clearly don’t know me.” [More]
Yeah?

Coming Soon to a Caliphate Near You

The case of Mourad T. highlights a crucial concern: the ability of jihadists to pose as refugees, operating freely around Europe to bring about its downfall. [More]
Say, telling people about this won't get us in virtual "hate speech" exile, will it?

[Via Michael G]

Realistically Speaking

Realistically, a gun control plan that has any hope of getting us down to European levels of violence is going to mean taking a huge number of guns away from a huge number of gun owners. [More]
Realistically, how do you expect to accomplish that, Dylan Matthews? By other men than you forcing your will on your countrymen with guns?

And assuming it doesn't go down the way you hope, do you expect survivors who went through hell, many having lost people they love, will look at those who egged it on and say to themselves "Oh well, we'll just agree to disagree"?

Realistically...?

Survey SAYS...

The Gun Feed Poll: Do you approve of the NRA’s stance to support ‘Extreme Risk Protection Orders’? [More]
You have to wonder if the 32"Yes" votes so far are doctrinaire gun-grabbers or just "pragmatic" Fairfax Kool-Aid drinkers.

Hell Hath No Fury Like a Marxist Scorned

I sent an e-mail to Smith & Wesson’s media relations department but didn’t hear back. [More]
Yeah? Why would they, when the agenda is so obvious?

Even Massachussetts disarmament isn't enough for subversives who want it all?

You don't think whining that someone won't invite an enemy in is a paradox in itself?

And yeah, I'll be disarming real quick because some kid named Hussein Abdi wants me to.

It's the Law

The acting head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives acknowledged Wednesday that he has been told by some attorneys that banning bump fire stocks through executive regulation would lead to court challenges that would delay the implementation of a ban. [More]
This must be one of those genius 3-D chess moves I keep hearing about. Although why any move has to be made at all remains a mystery to this mere checkers player.

UPDATE: Or not.

Those green lights work wonders.

The Clock Runs Out

'Clock boy' Ahmed Mohamed's lawsuit against Irving ISD, city dismissed [More]
As it should have been.

Now countersue for all costs. And with these ungrateful parasites now living in Qatar, never let them back into this country again.

They Should Be Rattled, and Often, and by Someone Who Knows How

Republicans may have lost a House seat in that Pennsylvania election, but here's what should rattle them even more [More]
GOP sellouts take note: Conor Lamb ran on a "pro-gun" platform.

The "anti-gun" payoff will come later -- something else the Stupid Party and their Fairfax green-lighters on "compromise" can't seem to grasp.

UPDATE: UniParty At Work – Paul Ryan SuperPac Campaigned to Elect Democrat Conor Lamb…

ANOTHER UPDATE:
The Center for Immigration Studies’ map of sanctuary cities, counties, and states lists Westmoreland County as a sanctuary county, which almost guarantees that illegal aliens have been registered to vote.
