Chief dismisses ‘silly debate’ over media machine gun conflation

The anti-gunners don’t get to start and perpetuate such confusion and then have their apologists dismiss arguments pointing out their deception as “silly.” They’d like to, but when they try, the dishonest tactic should be exposed. [More]
This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report notes if the antis don't want to get into silly arguments, they shouldn't start and perpetuate them.

We're the Only Ones Able-Bodied Enough

On October 24, the Houston Police Department announced the results of its yearlong investigation into the shooting death of Brian Claunch, a mentally ill double amputee killed by an officer last September after refusing to drop a pen.

Apparently because they couldn't prove he knew it was wrong...

Running the Asylum

"It's not so much a safety issue. It's a social conflict issue," said Frank Jenks, a natural resource specialist with Interior's Bureau of Land Management, which oversees 245 million acres. He adds that urbanites "freak out" when they hear shooting on public lands. [More]
 Ah, hoplophobes. So in other words, public policy is going to be dictated by the mentally ill?

MAIG Hatewatch

Bloomberg & Co. still proudly list their affiliation with this hater.

SPLC doesn't have anything to say about a proven racist controlling a city either.  Oh, they've reported on a [David] Gordon Jenkins alright, but that one's a "white supremacist."  Black ones are evidently OK.

Ain't that right, all you f-n crackers?
