Brady's Misplace Entire US Population

How do you make "the people" disappear?

Simple: through selective omission. Just pretend they aren't there. Dennis Henigan has been doing it for years.

My favorite hypocritical quote:

It is not appropriate for the courts to edit the Constitution

...he says, after editing the Constitution.

Today's Special

From MassBackward:

Me (after picking up my jaw): You'd rather be killed than kill someone, even if that person is trying to kill you?

Mitt Guy: Oh, God, yes.

Who does that remind me of...?

Oh, yeah, now I remember.

When Zombies Attack

Look at the picture and tell me it doesn't look like that.

The Way Government Works Part 2

The Indiana Court of Appeals ruled Monday that a lawsuit by the city of Gary against several gun makers can go to trial.

The court ruled 3-0 that a provision in the federal Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act of 2005 does not bar the case from going forward in state court.

Don't like a law protecting private enterprise, freedom or property?

Figure out a way to bypass the spirit and intent of it through legal chicanery.

Note: This only works if you're in government, or assisting them in subjugation and thievery.

The Way Government Works

The St. Clair County Board passed a pair of resolutions Monday to shut down and seize a nearly 32-acre shooting range that lies within the glide path of planes landing at Scott Air Force Base.

They showed the judge there's no danger, but when greedy, self-important home-grown kleptocrats with political ambitions set their minds on "seizing" property...

That's the way with most cancers. Unless you treat them locally and early, they grow and spread and become damn near impossible to control.

It's a Mystery to Me

Although he teaches firearms classes to people of all ages, he has specialized in training scouts and is the official firearms instructor for Boy Scout merit-badge training in Flagstaff.

Sometimes classes meet over objections of parents. Wainwright convinces them of the importance of firearms safety.

You have to wonder at the type of parent that would enroll their child in scouting and then object to shooting activities.

The Fighting Irish

Fine Gael is claiming that the Gardai are not being properly equipped to tackle rising gun crime in Ireland.

So if they can't do it, and the people aren't allowed do it, just who the hell is doing it?

This Day in History: October 30

Sir: By this Opportunity, I do myself the pleasure to congratulate you on the signal success of the Army under your command, in compelling Genl. Burgoyne and his whole force, to surrender themselves prisoners of War. An Event that does the highest honor to the American Arms, and which, I hope, will be attended with the most extensive and happy consequences.
