Divergent views emerging on ATF gun trust rulemaking
It's Not the Gun
A-yup.
And this is the most right-on bit of common sense I've heard in a long time:
...If I ran a large corporation, I would make personal protection training a part of coming into work...Compare that to what these gasbags insist on.
I'd add that I'd encourage people be armed, have an on-premises range, host and subsidize after-hours training sessions and come up with perks for personnel who obtained basic and advanced certifications.
We'd also have one hell of a company picnic.
We're the Only Ones Not Passing the Smell Test Enough
Police smell meth, raid home, kill 80-year-old man, find no meth [More]This guy Steve Whitmore is a real piece of...work.
Damn Lax American Gun Laws....
...it adds to the toll of lives taken with weapons trafficked by suspects U.S. officials watched but did not stop. [More]Ah yes, more fallout from Project Bombwalker...

Pointing out parallels and equivalence between “authorized leakers” and “Authorized Journalists” hardly seems unfounded.

Freezing Your Assets off
The U.S. Supreme Court appeared closely divided on Wednesday on whether criminal defendants can challenge a court's decision to freeze their assets before trial. [More]What kind of idiot thinks we're supposed to be considered innocent until proven guilty?
Besides, no one cares about this, as the ongoing ordeal of the Reese family demonstrates. I prove that every time I publish an update about them and watch readership plummet after begging readers to share what no one else will report on, and maybe kick a couple bucks their way. But I keep doing it anyway, because I'm stupid or something.

A Question for the "Enforce Existing Gun Laws" Crowd
So when this passes, that sentiment will apply here, too? [More]
A Message for Nigel
Some Brit from the UN presumes to condemn "Stand Your Ground" as a human rights violation, but is frustrated by those bloody rebellious tea-partying colonists. [More]
