Have much to do today so here's the only abbreviated Round Up I'll have time for:

Partisan Politics

"All are registered Democrats..." [More] 

You know, the people the Stupid Party keeps trying to emulate so that they can be inclusive...

Here's How

I don’t know how you get reelected with numbers even close to this... [More]

Easy. The Stupid Party will put up yet another RINO and practically guarantee it.

And there's a special message from a first-timer :

Stop using this as an excuse to not attend.

Indeed.

Angry Mob Shows Up at My House

This is the same group that descended on Vanderboegh a while back.  And then on Len Savage.

Very nice--I was feeling left out.

Thank you, anonymous mob-inciter. I appreciate the kind gesture of spending time and money you made to send me a gift, and will treasure and display this.

The only question: Do I take 'em out of the packaging?  I understand collectibles retain more value if not--but then again, they'll look cooler if I can position them.

Guerilla Jurors

Citizens in our (once) free republic founded under the English common law system, have both the power and the right to vote according to conscience when they sit on a jury and can vote not guilty even in the face of the law and in the face of the evidence. The defendant also has a right to expect that his jury will be fully informed of their rightful power to vote “not guilty” if they believe justice requires it, regardless of the evidence. Anything less is not a real jury trial. [More]

I've been ordered to appear for jury duty in July.  It'll be interesting to see how far I can go in explaining my position to the judge without getting a contempt citation.

Unfortunately, I have a public enough record on jury nullification that I can't just keep quiet about it if asked a direct question.

We're the Only Ones Not Ready for Our Close-Up, Mr. DeMille Enough

Officer Derek Colling Assaulted Video­grapher Mitchell Crooks Because He Didn't Want To Be Recorded [More]

Grab this video and save it before it disappears--it's already been taken down from the Las Vegas Review Journal website, which has a write-up on what happened.

Due to that paper's affiliation with the vultures at Righthaven, I'm not inclined to drive any (admittedly modest) traffic to their site.

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column recommends what we should not carry around in that dead animal skin pouch most of us keep in our pockets or purses.

This Day in History: April 25

Secret Negocitions, ought, to be sure, be avoided. And that they may not be too secret, there cannot be too many of those, who are trusted by the Congress Knowing of them, and in particular such as You, who have so just an Idea of the Nature of the Alliance, which demands a strict Observance of Faith between France and America, and by Consequence requires, I think, the Participation of France in every thing offered to America.
