ATF ‘qualifying event’ rule threatens sheriff gun auctions

“This presents a serious issue,’ the FFL observed. “Based on this ruling, no FFL may process auctioned firearms for any police agency in the state unless the firearms are transferred to the FFL by the police agency." [More]

Another "Stand Your Ground" Vigilante

More "gun violence" and proof that cops are the "Only Ones" who should be armed in bars... [More]

No?

vLadd has a question for the bar owner...

Transmutation

The Mighty Quinn turns victims into criminals with the stroke of a pen. [More]
On Sunday, Governor Pat Quinn signed Illinois House Bill 1189, a law that will, among other things, impose requirements--on pain of criminal charges--on victims of crime. If your gun is stolen, and you fail to promptly notify the police, you are now the criminal.
Guess who's immune?
Does anyone think violent criminals won’t enjoy an exemption from admitting they had a gun based on the Haynes precedent?

More Gun Violence, Another Gun Death

Damn "stand your ground" vigilantes! [More]

Maybe vLadd & Co. can make another lying video, showing rows of corpses lying on a kitchen floor...

Who Knew?

Neighbors: Alleged shooter quiet, friendly [More]

See, we're ALL powderkegs just waiting to go off. Ergo, none of us can be trusted with guns. Except the "Only Ones," of course, who are there to protect us.

This presentation fits right in with a meme the antis use ad nauseum, that everyone is law-abiding until the moment they are not. It's not until we get to the photo caption, at the bottom of the article in the sidebar, that we learn "Hill had previously been arrested for making terroristic threats in Henry County."

A Common-Sense Approach

"It's basically a common-sense approach. Businesses have these buttons all over the place," said Mario Civera, a county council member in Delaware County, Pa., which is installing panic buttons in its 237 schools. [More]
You keep telling yourself that, Mario. because the con is working:
Principal Julie King says parents have thanked her for the new security system, saying it gives them peace of mind.

And here's a testimonial to prove it.

We also obviously need some "common-sense gun laws."

Say, as long as we're on the subject and you have the budget for this sort of thing, have you guys considered bulletproof whiteboards...?

What a "progressive"-sounding name. Nice gig you got yourself there, James Orvis.

Enemy in the Gates

I guess Troy must have a new open borders policy, and doesn't even require enemies to sneak in by hiding in a wooden horse any more... [More]

Why Do You Think They Call Them Dicks?


I'm sorry, "Dick's"... [More]

Do you know anybody still shopping there? Have you asked them why?


Safe Passage

One man was killed and 11 other people were wounded in citywide gun violence, including five people who were shot outside a church on a Chicago Public Schools “Safe Passage” route on the North Side. [More]
Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

If only they'd disarm you and me...

This Day in History: August 21

“Tuesday [that is, August 21] a Flag returned here from New-York, which brought from the Hospital-Ship 51 American Prisoners, two of which died on the Passage, and the other are in a sickly and emaciated Condition.” [More]
