Money Bomb

For Ron Paul. [More]

Questions:

Will he run as an independent when the RINOs sideline him and grunt out their typical ordure?

Will "pragmatic" gun leaders then heap scorn on those who will not choose between "the lesser of two evils"?

If so, will they explain what incentive the GOP has to ever offer us anything but wormtongued phonies?

Survey SAYS...

Do you believe an Unorganized Militia presence is essential to effective early disaster preparedness and disaster management? [Read]

John Longenecker has another survey.

Jump-Starting the Economy

Or not...[Read]

Sounds like just what these record-breakers need...

Say, I've got a swell idea--let me pour salt in those wounds!

Vote Coming on Radical Left-Wing Ideologue to Federal Bench

You know, the usual... [Read]

We're the Only Ones Settled Enough

A man left bloodied by Denver police officers two years ago after a routine traffic stop was given a $795,000 settlement by the City Council on Monday. [More]

Yeah...routine...along with "lying on reports concerning other violent incidents..."

Denver, eh?  I wonder if they got up early and wore their t-shirts?

Seeing as how we've established thuggish brutality is a documented part of the culture viewed as humorous, I'm surprised the guy's lawyer didn't demand more money.

We're the Only Ones Vigilant Enough

Sources tell KDKA Investigator Marty Griffin eight prison guards who’ve been suspended from Western Penitentiary made up a secret vigilante group that dished out their own form of justice on convicted sex offenders. [More]

I guess the concept of committing sex offenses on sex offenders didn't strike them as...ironic?

We're the Only Ones Running Enough

The 84-count indictment includes 11 other defendants, including Columbus Mayor Eddie Espinoza, 51 and former Columbus Police Chief Angelo Vega, 40, who are accused of running firearms into Mexico. [More]

If only we banned "assault weapons" and closed the "gun show loophole"...that, and made sure government officials were the "only ones"...

We're the Only Ones Bouncing Back Enough

A Jackson County grand jury has indicted a Kansas City, Kan., police officer with three felonies for allegedly shooting a bouncer at a Kansas City club while intoxicated in March. [More]

See, that's why you and I can't be trusted to carry concealed while taking our families out to dinner at Applebees.

Project Blowwalker?

A high-ranking Mexican drug-cartel operative extradited to the United States claimed in a recent court filing that he was actually trafficking tons of cocaine on behalf of the American federal government, prompting a media frenzy in Latin America but almost no coverage in the U.S. press. [More]

Well, doesn't that just fit a pattern...

Breuer Gunwalker memo gives credence to Examiner and Sipsey St. accounts

This corroborates reports of Breuer involvement in the operation posted in early February by Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars and by Gun Rights Examiner. [More]

This morning's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the more the details of Project Gunwalker unfold, the more the credibility of reports that beat the mainstream media by months is bolstered.

Also see proof of delivery, examine 1,300 smoking guns, and read about The Fangs of Fairfax (it's not a  horror story, but instead a call to action).
