Burlington withholding more ‘gun ordinance’ documents from public scrutiny

If the city is successful in its quest, it would have “the power to arrest, prosecute, imprison, fine and seize the property of citizens,” VFSC observed. Yet it is refusing to share what should be public information on its activities to undermine the right of all Vermonters to keep and bear arms. [More] 

Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes “progressive” transparency in government means they not only won’t let you see a thing, they’ll be in your face about it.

A Man's Man

I’d been trained in mass-shooting protocol through the Department of Justice’s Safe Schools program... [More]

No wonder you were helpless, useless to yourself and everyone around you, admit you made "foolish" choices, and didn't even have the presence of mind to realize you had a cell phone.

So your solution is to disarm the rest of us who may not fall to pieces, and want different options than to run, hide and pray we're lucky while those around us are being slaughtered?

And then you dare to pull out the "who needs more than five rounds to kill a deer?" non-argument?

Here's the kicker:

I considered myself a man’s man, someone who would, if need be, sacrifice himself for others. I learned I’m not as stalwart a soul as I thought. My shame is the most significant lingering impact of the shooting, and no amount of counseling (I’ve had plenty) or comforting words (folks have been ever so kind) can erase the psychological scars.

Oh, that explains so much.  The guy doesn't dare face what it would mean if someone didn't fall apart and actually prevailed through preparation and decisiveness.

Nice "work" if you can get it.  [More]

I checked out his Facebook page. I wish I could afford a new Jeep and a Cape Cod vacation, but if I have an accident with a stapler, I have to pay $5k out of pocket before my co-pays kick in.

That About Sums It Up

These people are all about power, any way they can get it. [More] 

Everybody who thinks voting in "moderate Republicans" will stop this, put down your shovels and stand in front of this ditch. We'd like to take a group photo.

The Blame Game

Lefty journalist blames ADAM LANZA for Obama’s second-term implosion [More]

Oh gee, Alex Sitz-Bath lying about whose fault it is again.

Take this one for me, Gomer.

We're the Only Ones Permanently Grounding Enough

The officers then stepped on the bird intentionally, killing it, court documents say. [More]

Think of the type of person who would do that. Our enemies think these are the "Only Ones" who should be armed, and would happily deploy such sociopaths against us to ensure that.

The Nutty Professor

The dolt presumes to teach. The Captain shows he isn't even qualified to be in the class. [More]

What's instructive are the comments under the NYT article Herschel links to. The only thing more disturbing than the ignorance is the arrogance of those who actually believe they know what the hell they're talking about.

Oh no!  There was a fraud at the podium! [More]

That's funnier than Garrett Morris.

The Secretary at War, Major Gen. Lincoln, under whose orders the prisoners of War now more immediately fall, convinced that a strict hand will be necessary over the British in particular, is about removing all those to Lancaster and to this City, where they will will be left in the Frontier Town.
