We Also Do Birthday Parties, Weddings and Bar Mitzvahs
These people are available for talkradio guest booking and they can answer cogently and directly any host or caller question. All liberty non-profit organizations need to consult these experts for their acumen and perspective... [More]Balloon animals cost extra.
And speaking of talk radio, a reminder: Tonight, 10:00 pm EST, me 'n Mike, here.
Press continues (sober?) assault on right to keep and bear arms
She even ends her piece with a proof “that drinking impairs judgment.”This afternoon's Gun Rights Examiner column notes some "Authorized Journalists" might drive a man to drink--if they weren't hogging the bottle for themselves.
Yeah, no kidding. It also impairs vision, does it not? Like claiming that seeing open carriers in Texas, where the practice is illegal, with “shooters on their hips in full view,” is a common occurrence that’s happened in front of her so often she “can’t recall the exact number of times,” and that the sight left her “spellbound and queasy.” [More]
Consitutionalists on Guard Against the Nut(meg)s
It hasn't all been easy going, and this legislative session is already turning out bills that could turn ordinary law abiding CT citizens into criminals. [More]The better to rule you with.
Check out the Connecticut Citizens Defense League's efforts, and make sure any friends you have living there know about them. Unless you think they'd like a magazine ban.
Why there's even a question about the most appropriate nickname is a mystery to me, but nonetheless a sign of the times.
Tone Down the Right Wing Extremist Rhetoric!
It upsets supporters of the party of gun control. [Read]
10 Weapons that Changed the World
This is worth looking at and discussing. Some choices are obvious and some are arguable--I'm sure we all have our own biases. [Read]
Major point of contention: I don't see any handguns on the list.
Major point of contention: I don't see any handguns on the list.
We're the Only Ones Failing the Grade Enough
The Dayton Police Department is lowering its testing standards for recruits. It’s a move required by the U.S. Department of Justice after it says not enough African-Americans passed the exam. [More]It's NatLamp's Frank Rizzo bit come to life (side 2 at 11:43).
Yeah, I'm sure these "Only Ones" will be a lot more trustworthy than you and me--depending on what they're to be trusted to do.
It's not as stupid as first glance might suggest. There's an intelligence behind doing this. An evil intelligence, but an intelligence nonetheless.
Of Course You Realize This Means War
Operation Gun Walker: An Act of War Against Mexico...I'd say you don't quite have it right. The background checks performed as designed. You folks writing about this story would do well to go to primary sources.
What if I told you that the Obama Administration’s Justice Department authorized the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (the “ATF”) to rig gun background checks so gun runners could “walk” guns into Mexico after clearing an instant background check at various gun stores in the U.S.? [More]
For instance, it's "Project Gunwalker," not "Operation Gun Walker."
I should know.
As for this being an act of war, yeah, we've been making that observation from early on--Len Savage first raised that point in an email exchange back when our efforts were just getting started.
Still, it's nice to see "conservatives" finally noticing and spreading the story. As Mike would say, "Welcome to the party, pal!"
The Jojo Krako Defense
The Washington Post liberally borrowed and duplicated material from the Arizona Republic earlier this March... a Post reporter lifted a couple paragraphs...a review of the reporter concluded there were no other examples of plagiarism. [More]
Even though the unnamed reporter (Sari Horwitz!) did it in two articles?
Some of you may remember "A Piece of the Action."
Who's plagiarizin'?
We're borrowin'.
That must be why she apologized and has been suspended?
It's the same Pulitzer Prize winner who teamed up with the guy who figures Mike and I, who broke the story he was feeding off of, were not worth mentioning by name.
The canons of "Authorized Journalism"!
I wonder how much of their anti-gun hit piece series was pl...uh...borrowed from the Brady Playbook?
Darrell Issa enters ‘Project Gunwalker’ fray
"As we get to the truth, we’re going to hold those who lied to us early on accountable." [More]Huge fricking news. Worth not dragging my exhausted carcass to the sack for and staying up to pound this out.
I hope some will appreciate the continuing efforts and find the link worth sharing.
