Those are pretty glaring holes for something representing itself as an unbiased presentation, as opposed to an advocacy piece. But then, Pulitzer notwithstanding, we’re talking about a “news” organization headed by a billionaire “progressive” that gets foundation grants from the likes of George Soros' Open Society Foundations, and partners with all the right “Authorized Journalists” (or as Joe Biden likes to call them, “legitimate media”). [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner column does a little research of its own, and notices some fudged results that just happen to support a desired conclusion.

Agenda-driven research and reporting serve power elites, not public interest
Dollar Value Plummets
Dollar says the proposal is just way to give officers more authority to protect themselves. [More]You try this **** you stupid **** and they're going to need to.

Police sex assault kidnap case opens question: Who will guard the guards?
It would be interesting to ask Chief Drummond how many concealed carry permits he has issued and if he believes the women allegedly kidnapped and sexually assaulted by his officer should have had the means to defend themselves instead. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary asks what we're supposed to do when we need protection from the protectors.

Withering on the Vine
More and more households are headed by single women, and they are far less likely to have guns than families with a father in the household. So the swelling ranks of single mothers, a topic of much hand-wringing in other regards, may actually help to reduce suicides and accidental gunshot injuries. [More]Yes, we all know the presence of armed-to-the grill dependent drone males with gang affiliations are such rarities in these households. And we all know that "swelling ranks" of fatherless adolescents are the key to the peaceable and prosperous society of the future.

A Bridge Too Far
Greenlick tells The Oregonian that the bill as introduced goes too far in not only banning the sale of such weapons but in limiting each gun owner to continued possession of just one of the firearms. [More]In other words, it's too soon. Can't have the frog jumping.
Sounds About Right
California voters view stricter gun control laws as more important than protecting the constitutional right to own a firearm, according to a Field Poll released Tuesday. [More]Yes, based on the political "leadership" they foist on themselves and everybody else, I believe that.
Now ask 'em how badly they want it, who they think is going to execute their foolish wishes and if they feel lucky.
Let the Big One hit, and I guarantee poll responses will change.
The Wheels On The Bus Go 'Round And 'Round
The Big Wheels want us to believe guns on the bus are a bad idea. [Read]
Of course, according to the Big Wheels, guns not in the hands of the "Only Ones" are a bad idea everywhere! Just don't think for a moment they'll accept any responsibility if their circular "reasoning" doesn't work out. As long as they get a free ride, they don't give a damn who gets thrown under the bus.
I wonder if anyone at the hearing asked Forrest Claypool and Jordan Matyas how frequently they use public transit, what times and which neighborhoods they get on and off in.
No I don't.

Gandhi Get Your Gun
Our opponents, it is becoming clearer, wish us dead, or at least silenced. They cloak that essential truth with a bodyguard of lies. They believe, truly believe, that if they win the political argument in a rigged game in which both political parties participate that that will be the end of it -- they will have won and we will have lost. They do not respect us because we do not respect ourselves. Put another way, they do not respect us because they do not fear us as the Founders intended. Yet if we truly have the courage of our convictions and engage in armed civil disobedience, they will certainly come to fear us. [More]Vanderboegh has some important observations on the limitations of passivity.
I never knew Gandhi had recommended European Jews kill themselves so their deaths would have meaning. I had read about his prejudice against blacks.
Funny. Ben Kingsley never said any of this stuff to Candice Bergen as Hollywood set out to convince us of the inferiority of Western culture in producing liberty outcomes.
We're the Only Ones Hung Out to Dry Enough
