Unopened Mail

Actually, there is none, but there is plenty of stuff sent over the last several days I will just not have time to respond to nor to post about.

If you sent me something, sorry.

The III Percent Solution

Kerodin.com has some observations.

I've been looking around the site a bit--seems like an interesting place.

I did find a point I'd argue from the "Freedom of Association" post:

He simply seems to have taken the position that she may not do so while working in his office.

It ain't "his" office.

Ah well. If I ever meet anyone I agree with completely I'll probably find some other reason to complain. Go on over and give the site a look-see.

Hillary for President?

Considering how badly things are going in America just now, that could turn out to be a slam dunk for her and the disgruntled Democratic Party. [More]

Pete du Pont thinks he has it all figured out.

I'm not so certain cities wouldn't burn.

The Proper Reaction

But what was harder to talk about was the moment he shares with Bailey's son, who ran from his home early Sunday, armed with one of his father's guns, to try to stop the people who had attacked his father. [More]

I'd have done exactly the same thing. And we'd have both been in violation of Daley's edicts.

We're the Only Ones Economical Enough

With the truth, naturally...[Read]

Most Compelling Testimony Ever

I took out my phone and, as I later found out, placed the only call to the police by someone in the building. [More]

Wait--you had time to make a phone call?

And your solution is to compel everyone else to be as helpless as you?

We'll Always Have Paris

According to Corse-Matin newspaper, Hilton was travelling on the private jet with "people close to power in Malaysia"...[More]

Guess what happens to people not close to power in Malaysia when they get caught with drugs?

And guns.

Wonder how we're doing on that cultural degeneracy ratio...?

More Tea Party Racism

Ten wounded in shootings during Black Expo [More]

Damn guns.

Will disarming elderly be next 'gun control' push?

We have an aging population. Many of us still have parents, others of us are starting to realize we ourselves aren't getting any younger. The decisions we are or will be faced with aren't easy ones. That means there is no one-size-fits all solution where we can just pass another "gun control" law and consider the problem solved. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at a group of citizens the antis are looking at as well.

Also watch a firefight on Trigger Sports LIVE! and take JPFO's new survey.

I trust I can rely on my friends to share this link?

This Day in History: July 20

July 20, 1778 at Vincennes, Indiana...On the 20th of July the French at Vincennes also swore allegiance to the Americans. Because of his small force, Clark could only leave three men to man the fort. Clark then dispatched Captain Joseph Brown with 30 mounted men to the French settlements of Prairie du Roche and Cahokia, accompanied by some Frenchmen, to spread the word about the Alliance. [More]
