We're the Only Ones Returning Fire Enough

Furious Mike Paradise. Empire State Building and guns-a-blazin'. No wonder this picture come to mind...
 Police killed the suspect and at least nine others were wounded, some by stray police gunfire, city officials said. [More]

Shipley’s father asked Issa and Grassley to investigate son’s case

Longtime readers will recall it was only following a desperate (some would say “rude”) and very public appeal, first to Sen. Grassley’s staffers, and then to Rep. Issa, that both men involved themselves and the power of their offices in what was to become the Congressional investigation into Operation Fast and Furious. The approach was necessary because, sometimes, particularly when voices are weak, a bit of amplification is required just to get attention. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes some outstanding correspondence demanding a reply.

2A Rally

In Iowa. [Read]

The promo email said they were expecting "hundreds and hundreds."

I suppose if they were talking about anything important, they'd have a better turnout.

Wake up, gun owners. 

What's the greater danger?  Anti-gunners or the enemy within?

Control addicts need more and bigger fixes. And they don't care whose lives they ruin to get them.

Who'da Thunk?

Talks on transferring some of Afghanistan's arms surpluses to the U.S. border with Mexico have raised concerns some of them will end up in arsenals of drug cartels and organized crime. [More]
What? You mean we can't even trust the "Only Ones"?

Ignorance is Strength!

More than a dozen students from Cleveland's George Washington Carver school stood in front of community leaders Thursday and pledged not to touch guns. 

Many sealed their promise by putting a pink, green or blue handprint on a quilt that will hang in City Hall. [More]

And afterward, we gathered for a Play Dough  play day!

John-ny! NO!

"Cleveland's National Council of Jewish Women"?  More like "Bagel Brains."

It's sad, the way their elected "leaders" are screwing them, but I don't know why a company would stay in a state where it's not welcome.  Too bad if Remington ends up leaving for friendlier environs, because there are many in Ilion who are not responsible for Cuomo.

Which may be why those who are wouldn't mind seeing them ruined...

Taking Names

“He said, they have the names addresses of every member of Congress, and the Senate, their wives, their children, the school that they go to, all the cabinet members, all of the head officials in Washington, all the officials in state governments.  And he said, they will all be assassinated, quickly.” [More]
It's tough to separate the noise from the signal. I bring you this link not to endorse it, but because it's a curiosity and a consideration.  Still, why would the Russians be stupid enough to think that would paralyze those who won't bow to any enemy, foreign or domestic?

UPDATE:

Mike dusts off his old VHS copy of "Invasion USA."

And Kent wins the coveted Best Comment Award, and all the honors and fabulous prizes that go with it.

Heroes of the Fatherland

They totally set these things up, which have no chance of happening, and then act like they saved the Free World when a moron walks into their net trap.  Hell, they should have added "low-yield tactical nuclear device" to their bullet list, and then they could have really exploited it in their presser's headline.

Hopes and Dreams

Outside of Capitol Hill and the ATF, analysts and activists were outraged, too. “If this is what the administration means by holding the decision-makers accountable, it’s fair to wonder what they’d consider ‘justice’ for the Terry family and other victims of Operation Fast and Furious to look like,” said gun-rights advocate David Codrea, who played a key role exposing the deadly federal scheme from the beginning. Codrea is one of many activists hoping to see wide-ranging criminal prosecutions of those involved in the scandal. [More]
Well, one of a few, anyway.  If we could just get the "Resign" crowd to shut up.
