“When I asked if I would be arrested if I continued, he told me ‘You could put it that way,’” Benedetto reported. [More]
This evening’s Gun Rights Examiner Report asks why those who care nothing about the Second Amendment would be expected to revere the First.

We're the Only Ones Disarmed Enough

Several of you have sent me this link over the past few days and I haven't done anything with it.  [More]

While such a ruling is nuts, I'm trying to get some further information on this and want to be circumspect for now. 

Rather than focus on his being armed on duty, which is absolutely an "Only Ones" illustration, we ought to be concerned for why he is barred from guns off duty, because such rationales could apply to all of us.

It's why, when some of our ostensible gun rights "leaders" champion facilitating mental health prohibitions, they ought to be pressured into fleshing out all the details.  Let's start with a list of psychiatrists who are willing to put their name, license and malpractice insurability on the line to certify someone once forbidden is now OK to have whatever guns and however much ammo he wants.

Because without that, it's all words.

Sorry, Ann, it's not a "theory."  It doesn't even qualify as a "hypothesis" since it's based on your delusions rather than observations.

There's a recurring troll in comments I've seen on other sites. I won't name him because what they crave is attention and acknowledgement, but you can't miss him.

I bring it up because he inadvertently shows how modern "progressives," who consider themselves so enlightened, aren't anywhere near as savvy as their hardcore commie forebears.  Note the way he constantly denigrates rural Americans and Walmart shoppers (even though he apparently shops there himself), conflating them all with hicks and KKK members.

The Bolsheviks knew they'd never have the power to take over unless they instead exalted the peasants and the workers. So we should actually be grateful for idiots like self-designated Superiorboy here, who doesn't even know enough to mask his contempt.

And we should also never lose sight of the fact that with "progressives," every day is Opposite Day. Notwithstanding what they say they're about, which is invariably and always a lie, it is we "shall not be infringed" absolutists who are the true power-sharing egalitarians.
