Send in the Clowns

One of these morons is gonna win a Darwin Award before too long. Don't be surprised if  that turns his parents into malicious and unfunny disarmament clowns.

Cornynholed Again

... S.2123 – Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act of 2015. It contains serious restrictions to posting any technical data about firearms on the Internet (even via email). [More]

What...? It's from A-rated John Cornyn...?

Gosh, I sure wouldn't want to risk facing an ITAR rap like these guys...

We're the Only Ones Pimping Enough

Prosecutors charged a veteran King County sheriff’s deputy Thursday with helping his estranged wife work as a prostitute, stealing department ammunition and illegally delivering testosterone in a case that could implicate other deputies and commanders in the department. [More]

And the story gets even better, with ammo, brass, domestic assaults and...

“The worst part about this is the culture that existed that allowed this to happen”...

What, you mean that culture we've been discussing here on a regular basis for years?

Say, those are quite a few "few bad apples"... why, if I didn't know better, I'd start to think it's systemic and pervasive, and that someone would do something about it. You know, before people are left with no choice but to either suffer continued outrageous abuses with no "legal" defense or recourse, or deal with intolerable conditions themselves...

I know, I'm just a cop basher. I haven't goose-stepped a mile in their jackboots. And the next time I'm in trouble, I should rescue myself instead of expecting them to come protect and save me.

We're the Only Ones Sweet Enough Already Enough

I made a big mistake, there's no sugarcoating it," Ganley said in court.[More]

He says with a straight face as he sugarcoats it...

A mistake is when you forget to carry the two.

This trusted public servant intentionally violated several laws, repeatedly and for years, that he would have destroyed someone else's life over. And note "he claimed [it] was quite common among fellow law-enforcement officers."

More evidence to support the "Just a few bad apples" meme, right?

Now Hulk MADDD! So just suck up and obey, and don't make him angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

Naturally, the judge gives him probation.

"The Only Ones."

Kosher Questions

If guns are not important and nobody should have a gun to protect himself, why does Bloomberg have 12 bodyguards? Why doesn’t he stand there with 12 rabbis? Why do they have guns? Instead of guns they should have pastrami sandwiches. [More]

It's OK. Jackie Mason said it, not Ted Nugent.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

Teachers reprimanded two seven-year-old boys for playing army games - because it amounted to 'threatening behaviour'. [More]

They're teachers, alright. And how.

'The issue here was about hand gestures being made in the shape of a gun towards members of staff which is understandably unacceptable, particularly in the classroom.'

I guess clutching your chest in response and moaning "Ya got me!" would also be unacceptable? Or if they were being disruptive just telling them to knock it off and then going on with the lesson plan--end of story?

No, I guess the only answer is to close the finger bang loophole.

The Young Jerks

Rather than admit the prohibitionists have lost the battle of public opinion over the utility of guns for personal defense, they try to reframe it as a move to defend against evil white racist "conservatives." [Watch]

The snotty overprivileged believe they can gin up and egg on social violence and remain above it all.

We're the Only Ones Mostly Trustworthy Enough

I know that most cops are straight arrows.  [More]

Really?  How can anyone "know"?

And define "most."

What percentage places their oath above their orders? And how many, even if not directly involved in abuse or corruption, nonetheless look the other way and maintain a code of silence?

And They Say There Are No Stupid Questions

[Watch]

Oh, I don't know, Sarge. Why are you such a jackbooted f***ing oinker?

And oh look: In typical Prozi projection fashion:

There are those who would try to impose that here.  Hell, there are those who would just applaud the jackboots seizing the guns, and terminating anyone who tried to stop them.

You don't give them an inch.  Nothing. No "compromises."

Because that makes as much sense as throwing a scrap of flesh to circling jackals and expecting that will satisfy them and persuade them to leave you in peace.

Formerly Great Britain really has become a socialist hellhole run by tyrants who can't stand anyone not doing what they're told; not being a good, submissive little subject. Head to the Texas Partisan for some history on Philip Luty, and then to here to read of what the Brit government(miserable statist bastards that they are) have done to him [More]

Advocate for RKBA, become an enemy.

No one really thought this was ultimately about guns, did they?

It will happen here too, you know.

If we let it.

The Force Awakens and Rolls Back Over

Any bets on how they'd view a real life rebel alliance resisting a monopoly of violence empire? [More]

I am reminded of my first magazine article, "The Fandom Menace," published in the Nov. 1999 issue of GUNS & AMMO. It's not online and I've not been successful  in my attempts to obtain contractual reprint rights, along with "The New Eloi" and some others.

We're the Only Ones Unencouraging Enough

“While we do not encourage the public to take matters into their own hands, we praise the swift actions of the homeowner,” said West Shore RCMP spokesman Const. Alex Berube. [More]

"...take matters into their own hands..."

Right, Alex.

An intruder with a hammer/pick is in their home at 3 a.m., and they're supposed to let him be the one to call the shots.

I'm just surprised you didn't call the home owner a "vigilante."

Artists Demand Action

"We asked the government to give us guns," he says. [More]

Yeah, but mass chaos and pervasive, targeted violence could never happen here because we're special and immune.

Just ask our armed bodyguard-protected "artists."

White Privilege

Sorry, my mistake. I thought this article was about our guinea pig... [More]
