Window of Opportunity

I received a heads-up this was coming, and here it is. [More]

Why the 1-day "Open Period?" Ask yourself what purpose a 24-hour window serves, and whether or not it is intended to be communicated only to a select few "team players" via email trees to avoid notice and scrutiny, and then ask yourself if this is an agency that deserves our automatic trust when it does things semi-covertly--especially things that ought to be completely open.

Speaking of Failed and Diseased Souls

I am proud to stand by the side of the subject of this vile and cowardly attack.

We're the Only Ones Terrorizing Enough

The sight of a gun on a BART platform caused a scare and train delays this morning, and then it was learned that the firearm belonged to an off-duty police officer, BART police said. [More]

Because nothing quite says "urinate" in the Bay Area like the sight of an armed man not wearing the magic costume.

We're the Only Ones Who Recognize a Great Idea Enough

What else is the idiot going to say?  He has to keep his own incompetence and the corruption of his department and city officials from being scrutinized. [Read]

Besides, they all want to make it home at the end of their shift and live to get that retirement watch.

NM gun case shows government treats citizens differently from its own (cont'd.)

That is why the Reeses must be afforded the opportunity to defend their presumption of innocence—something they cannot do if their ability to pay for legal services is taken from them by the same people prosecuting them. Combine this with the judge forbidding them to be represented by one counsel, and a denial of bail designed to keep them apart, destroy their morale and resolve, as well as their ability to coordinate a defense and lean on each other for emotional and intellectual support, and the appearance is that the leviathan state is crushing them not in the name of justice, but to break them and make them surrender, regardless of the truth.

Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a fight is hardly fair when one side is blindfolded and hogtied and the other has sledge hammers.

Oh, Look: Cannibal Food!

Is it redundant to say "stupid cow"? [Read]

What Would Jim Bowie Say?

What does the Bowie Council think the man their town is named after would have told the ATF if they told him they didn't want him conducting a private weapon sale without their sanction? [Read]

And while we're at it, why not dig in just a bit more, Barbara Greene, and tell us who those "ATF officials" are?  With all the DOJ gun subterfuge happening in the Southwest border states, I'd say finding out who they are, who they're taking their orders from, how high up those orders originate, and who else are they putting the squeeze on are all legitimate questions for you to investigate and report on.

We're the Only Ones Miraculous Enough

Kelly called it “another miracle,” one that occurred despite the enablers who block gun control or rail against the NYPD program of questioning and, sometimes, frisking people who appear suspicious. [More]

Yeah, what the hell is wrong with you selfish people, expecting your damned Bill of Rights to take precedence over our authoritah?

I wonder if Kelly's Heroes started taking plungers to NY Daily News editors if they might develop a new found respect for liberty, but the thought strikes it would probably only increase their lickspittle fervor...

Play It Again, Sam

Since there was no lock, the people in the teachers lounge moved a piano in front of the door do try and keep the shooter out. “It was pretty scary. I’m still a little shaken up.” [More]

And if you kids can't make it into our sanctuary, well, we get a fresh crop every year.

Not even a lock on the door, and their entire "response" strategy is centered on lockdowns...

On the plus side, I understand they have some of the finest grief counselors tax money can buy...

Meanwhile, no response on either of these, naturally:

This Day in History: February 28
