Fine words. Stirring words. Words I believe in. [Read]
What's missing is a refusal to enforce laws he says he doesn't believe in, and a pledge to interpose himself between the feds and the citizens he's being paid to protect.
That has the unfortunate effect of making me wonder if these are, after all, just words.

‘Cross lobby’ shows 'progressive' hypocrisy on church-state separation
An occasional recurring theme on “The War on Guns” blog is how the regressive left, as exemplified by groups like “Americans United for the Separation of Church and State,” goes into IRS-siccing hissy fits whenever conservative religious values surface in government affairs. That generally prompts them to point loudly and insistently to the “wall of separation,” cite the First Amendment proscription that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,” and generally act like they can’t wait to find a hamlet somewhere with a manger scene in a public park at Christmas so they can tear it down and make someone pay for having their atheist sensibilities offended. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary observes if you can't de-program cultists, you're just going to have to be prepared to repel them.
The Push to the Top
From Dead Patriot Films, via email:
We were hoping that some deep-pocket finance types would have shown themselves by now to help us carry this film to the finishing line, but no such luck. Therefore, the crew and I have decided to return to Kickstarter to raise the funds needed to complete the film and take it to theaters by March to be part of the “conversation” while congress debates our 2nd Amendment rights.Learn more:
Yes, theaters!
Using a similar distribution plan used by the recent film 2016, we’re going to self-promote and distribute the film in major US cities “art house” cinemas. With strong positive reviews, we will then secure traditional distribution. Once the theatrical release is completed, we will then distribute a TV edit to PBS/PTV affiliates for broadcast. Netflix and web streaming will follow by the end of spring.
What happened to the funds from the first round? In the 90 days since receiving $64,000 from Kickstarter (yes, they take a commission!), we hit the road and conducted 50+ interviews and gathered some great footage. Our travels took us up and down California, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Florida and Louisiana. Expenses included t-shirts, hats, insurance, salaries, fuel, lawyers, hotels, airfare and food. We also covered the small loans that carried us from May to October when we were developing the concept for this film.
Now we will recharge the till, set the editor and his crew to work and craft the film that is needed now more than ever. We hope that each of you will consider another donation to our film to help us communicate the importance of “we the people” and the right to “keep and bear arms”.

So THAT Explains It
From the Texas chapter of Students for Concealed Carry:
Authorities have identified the suspect, now in custody, as 22-year-old Carlton Berry. This is Berry's fourth arrest since his eighteenth birthday.I was wondering why he didn't obey the rules...
Gentle People with Flowers in Their Hair
The Left in San Fran is crazy. At the same time they are demanding that slingshots be outlawed and spitball throwing be given the death penalty as terrorists, they are buying guns to protect themselves from the criminals they want back on the streets. [More]And they're now bemoaning they can't tell how many guns registered with the state are in their city.
It's never enough for those who would control ALL.
Biden-Google
With the goo-goo-googly eyes... [Read]
There's nothing quite like rich, hip young corporate fascists hosting a government monopoly of violence propaganda fest to make me proud to be a global citizen. Isn't that what "public/private partnerships" are all about?
Now that they've changed their image algorithm, how can we pull up pictures of what they're going to be doing to Biden? No wonder his eyes are all googly!

I no sooner got done posting this and The White House sent me this link to watch (1:45 Eastern).

This Day in History: January 24
On January 24, shortly after midnight, the Patriots made their move. They rode into the camp, terrifying the Loyalist militia. The British Rangers did not panic. They quickly formed into a battle line, fired at the Patriots, driving them out of the camp. [More]
