Fairfax Under Fire

Secrecy, Self-Dealing, and Greed at the NRA - The organization’s leadership is focused on external threats, but the real crisis is of its own making. [More]
You would be right to assume Bloomberg front The Trace will use everything it's got to hurt NRA as much as it can.  You would be wrong to dismiss everything they have presented here because of that.

It will be interesting to see if members demand answers from Wayne at the upcoming Annual Meeting, and how raucous that could get.

What a Coincidence!

The Game, Snoop Dogg call for firing of Fox News' Laura Ingraham after Nipsey Hussle segment [More]
That's funny. I've been calling for the firing of Snoop Dogg from a game. I guess with the DSM not wanting to make the reasons known, they figure they can continue getting away with it.

Trying to Understand the Rules Here

So would somebody get in trouble if they advocated punching her?

The New Slave Catchers

Imagine any other black woman invited onto a college campus to give a speech - getting surrounded by masked white people who scream “get the fuck out!” It would lead the news for weeks. [More]
And here we are back full circle...

A Mess of Pottage Redux

“I was told I would have to choose between cannabis and owning a gun, so I allowed my medical marijuana card to expire to buy the gun.” [More]
Trade that birthright!

For some reason, stories of newbies discovering "gun control" always reminds me of the wannabe gun owners outraged to find there were "legal" barriers in the way when the Rodney King riots broke out, the police were nowhere to be found and Angelenos suddenly realized they and theirs were personally vulnerable.

Based on results, most didn't change their voting patterns.

Set Free to Stalk Among Us

Ultimately, Aranda pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 18 months of court supervision. [More]
So this is a guy the state figures can be trusted without a custodian?

Mall of America, eh?

Undressed to Kill?

Good Guy With A Gun Shoots Man Who Breaks Into Home And Starts Undressing In Front Of 12 Year Old Girl In Her Bedroom [More]
Now watch this get counted as "gun violence."

Magical Thinking

"I understand that some people might think that the genie is out of the bottle, but let's put as much of that genie back into the bottle as we possibly can." [More]
If I had a genie I wouldn't need a gun.

This Happy Ending for Wiener Sounds Obscene to Me

“While I am happy that the Cow Palace Board of Directors voted to end gun shows, it shouldn’t have taken decades for the Board to do so,”  Wiener said in a statement. [More]
I remember when the gun-grabbers drove out Great Western. The lesson I got from that was that while tens of thousands would flock to the shows, only tens of tens would involve themselves to seriously advocate and work for RKBA.

And that reminds me: I miss Frank Barnyak. When I think of men like him and ...things like this Wiener piece of crap...


Blame Canada

Don't they have strict laws up there?

A Giant Rat as Their Mascot Should Have Been the First Clue

Timothy Roshun Smith was shot in the leg and chest, and his daughter's leg was injured, when a loaded gun in a diaper bag went off Saturday outside a Chuck E Cheese's. [More]
Darwinianly dumb. But also exacerbated by obeying the rules.

Which hardly seems a good idea.

Under Pressure

Roblan has stated that he does not support the bill, but he will be pressured by other Democrats to vote it out of committee. [More]
Counter-pressure is needed, meaning Oregon gun owners need to be the ones to apply it.

The Ties that Bind

The Southern Poverty Law Center identified the group as an extremist white nationalist group and the Anti-Defamation League identified it as a white supremacist group.  [More]
Oh, well then, guilty.

Here's how you can be a racist, too.

Like me, if you believe some cultures and ideologies are superior at encouraging individualism, liberty, prosperity, and innovation over others.

There's a Lesson in Here Somewhere

Authorities said her threats were not specific to any school. But Columbine and more than 20 other schools outside Denver reacted by locking their doors for nearly three hours Tuesday afternoon, and some canceled evening activities or moved them inside. [More]
How little it takes to grind everything to a halt.

Boot-edge-edged Weapons

‘He knows he’s lying’: Pete Buttigieg makes B.S. argument for banning assault rifles and other ‘weapons of war’[More]
Since he's the one who brought it up, his argument is with our Creator.

Pi-yow! Indeed

"He better be glad I didn't have a gun," Gainey said. "Because I would have shot him. But this is my gun right here (baseball bat). Because I gone 'Pi-yow!'" [More]
Foolish woman. Her decision to open the door and approach him would have negated a self-defense claim if she had, especially the way she can't resist all the media attention. Still, it's interesting to note some of the "leading voices" against "Stand Your Ground" claim it's racist.

Besides, based on statistical evidence, the whole situation could have been defused without resorting to violence by merely presenting a firearm. It's only bloodthirsty gun-grabbers who say the case for DGUs would be better served with a higher body count.

The Usury Suspects

Operation Choke-Point 2.0? Gun Control Advocates Urge Banks To Refuse Service To Gun Companies [More]
Choke back. As Obama was quick to remind us, they didn't build the infrastructure in which they depend and thrive.

We're the Only Ones Speechless Enough

Prosecutors reveal that 20 cops refused to speak to investigators after colleague was arrested for shooting dead unarmed yoga teacher who had called 911 [More]
Only a few bad apples, obviously. Gee, what have they got to hide?

Turnabout is fair play.

Why is there even a debate about police being the "Only Ones" who should be armed?

Sign of the Times

“Violators will be shot. Survivors will be shot again!” [More]
I would not want to have to explain that to a criminal or civil jury. Best not to be cute about such things, because one never knows when they won't seem so funny.

Those Kooky Kids These Days

Hundreds Of Teens Run Through Downtown Chicago, Fighting And Disobeying Police [More]
Google helps us envision the troublemakers.

It doesn't strike anyone that resorting to code words is racist?

Didn't we just get done talking about great love for the press?

That Right There

Hatred of journalists whipped up by populist and authoritarian leaders is degenerating into violence across the world... [More]
You self-righteous DSM  propagandists and ignoramuses can't stop with the lies and admit the contempt is self-earned, can you?  You have no problem endangering American gun owners by egging on enforced infringements, but the second your precious hindquarters get pushback (the kind you don't enjoy), you get all ... uh ... butthurt.

Welcome to Bill Clinton's Rules of Engagement, motherf*****s. You have only yourselves to blame.
