Just to Make Things Clear


If I call some piece of crap Euroswine a “lousy traitor,” “corrupt oaf,” and member of a “fascist party,” their courts can order it taken down -- or else -- and Google, which owns Blogger, will do it? [More]

Methinks Kamala Hasn't Thought This Through

“First of all, let’s be clear about what assault weapons are they have been designed to kill a lot of human beings quickly,” she said at the time.  [More]
So just to be clear, she thinks "gun violence" will go down even further below an unknown fraction of fist/foot levels trying to forcibly take 10 million "weapons of war" from people adamant on keeping them?

I'm wondering if Willie had lead in his precious bodily fluids.

Lock Out/Tag Out

A ballot measure that will require you to keep your self defense firearms locked up and unavailable is moving forward. [More]
Let's ask Sammy what he thinks!

We're the Only Ones All Hat and No Cattle Enough

Runaway steer shot and killed by police after chase in downtown Des Moines [More]
Well, gee, it took me all of five minutes to find these guys two hours away...

My bet is they'd know somebody in the area with a horse, lariat, and trailer.

Missing the 'Fun' Element

But what if these lockdown drills are actually what is creating most of the anxiety? [More]
I have a different kind of drill I'd love to be able to try -- give middle and high school kids who want to participate a day's worth of safety/tactical training and airsoft guns, have a designated adult "school shooter" and at the sound of the alarm, send 'em on a hunt, with a prize for first "kill."

Who thinks the "attacker" would be able to rack up much of a body count?

The Going Rate

It was made apparent when the Motion Picture Association of America gave it an R rating. Although it had no foul language or sex scenes, and less violence than Disney movies given a PG-13 rating, the screenwriter and producer of the film, Dr. J. P. Johnston, had to appeal to the MPAA to get it changed. [More]
Took 'em long enough.

We're the Only Ones Red-Flagging Enough

Kids as young as 8 have been issued red-flag gun orders in Florida [More]
Hey, why have edicts if you can't ridiculously abuse them?

At least this boot has an "R" on the heel.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Piers Morgan Paradise

The solution is banning glass. [More]
That makes as much sense as everything else the hive insect prohibitionists demand.

We're the Only Ones Reinstating Enough

UPDATE: After Strong Backlash, Police Chief Un-Suspends Officer For Calling ICE On Illegal Immigrant [More]
Roessler certainly has shown everyone the content of his character.  What a moral dwarf.

And I'd still like my question answered.

Fitting the Profile

At one point in the trailer, a journalist (played by Olivia Wilde) tells her newspaper editor that “Jewell fits the profile of a lone bomber, a frustrated white man who is a police wannabe who seeks to become a hero.” She says this without a lick of evidence to support her claims. [More]
Life imitates art.

AzCDL Reminder

The Arizona Citizens Defense League Fourteenth Annual Meeting of Members will be held on October 12, 2019, at the Tucson University Park Hotel in Tucson [More]
And per an email that just came in, they can still make good use of donated silent auction items and more volunteers.

Too Soon?



Sorry...

Preaching to Deaf Ears

Deaf 'Islamic convert' is named as Paris police HQ attacker: IT worker who fell out with supervisor 'over dealing with women' slaughters four colleagues, including female officer, with a knife before being shot dead [More]
Sorry, my ADD is kicking in again. I'm fixated on wondering how he hears the call to prayer. That and this...

Unarmed Men

A central Iowa pastor who also served as a chaplain to area first responders was robbed and beaten to death outside of his church, authorities said. [More]
Feet and fists, eh?

Too bad "Real Man" wasn't there.

Stockholm Syndrome

In Sweden, discussing who is behind the current crime epidemic in the country has long been taboo. [More]
I can't decide if they're more like Shmoos or the Dish of the Day.

We're the Only Ones Startled Enough

The officer said he squeezed the trigger because he was startled. [More]
And that's why we're supposed to do what?

Curious-- the story says "officer" five times but doesn't give a name. I'd say we mundanes would not be offered such courtesy shielding, but Item 14 ensures that only highly-trained, professional booger-hookers will be in a position to have a gun at the mall in the first place.

Right?

When Fire Extinguishers are Outlawed


And they were assault extinguishers, with no legitimate spurting purpose. [More]

Cut the Mustard or the BS?

[H]er garage keypad and garage door were smeared with mustard, according to three neighbors. [More]
So which kind of lunatic in a position of authority are we dealing with here? A woman scorned screaming "boyfriend loophole," or someone who can't be trusted with a squeeze bottle of French's?

What say we take the guns first, due process later?

A Corrupting Influence

“And so this is not just a question about policy. This is a question about power,” he added. [More]
It figures and Opposite Day "progressive" would oppose the most egalitarian power-sharing arrangement ever devised, demanding instead a totalitarian monopoly of violence.

Democrat Feeding Frenzy on Guns Gives GOP Chance to Quell Self-Created Doubts


Those are precisely what GOP sellouts have been proffering under the false premise that if we don’t preemptively surrender on those fronts, the Democrats will do something really, really bad to gun owners. And most of those voters have signaled back there will be no real political cost for disarmament bills as long as they’re “bipartisan.” [More]
Unfortunately, that presupposes the Stupid Party will be smart and/or honest enough to see and then seize the opportunity.

'Settled Science'

Black Holes As We Know Them May Not Exist [More]
Yeah, but what's that got to do with transferring wealth from productive Western cultures to keep the "settled science" climate crisis from flooding AOC's district out in 12 years and destroying all life as we know it?

At Least It Wasn't a 'Hate Crime'

Jurors found Dwright Boone-Doty guilty of murder in the first degree for shooting the boy in the head after promising to buy him a treat. Boone-Doty led the boy into an alley and executed him in a gang hit that shocked the nation for its brutality. [More]
If only they would disarm "white nationalists"!

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.
