Furious Mike's "Only Ones"--what more do you really need to know?

We're the Only Ones Teaching Obedience Enough

[More]

Meanwhile, Over in Furious Mike Paradise...

Member of Mayor Bloomberg's security detail accused of shooting gal pal's ex-boyfriend [More]

Yep, these guys are the "Only Ones"...

The good thing is, in this case, we wouldn't be able to complain about not also being offered "modified duty" pending the investigation wrapping up.That's because in Furious Mike Paradise, the guy with the knife would have probably made that point moot for us.

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at yet another potential for discouraging those pesky, presumptuous protesters who dare challenge the lawgivers.

Share the link? That is, if you don't think it will make your name end up on some list?
