Who does that leave to sue? Ours is a litigious society, and survivors will want someone besides the killer to “pay.” And it’s not like there will be a shortage of attorneys licking their chops at a chance to rifle through deep pockets.Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report asks if NRA is really to blame for the shootings, why is it if anyone shells out money for being sued, they won’t be among them?
So who’s left? [More]

Top Secret
It's not just this guy,. Him they can get out--it's everyone he associated with. [More]
And then we see, after the list went out "to a distribution list of more than 6,000 recipients" that "The name was left off of a subsequent report filed from Bagram."
Oh, so that's who it was!
People and their families and friends could end up dead from this. And why is it a fricking WaPo reporter knew who and what the guy was?
The constant reminders of Leviathan's institutional incompetence and laziness contrast starkly with the intended impression of omnipotence and invulnerability.
But pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Running for Office
Protecting your 2nd amendment rights isn't just about gun control laws but also includes other issues. I have two sons who attend Bloomfield Public Schools where teachers teach the Constitution but conveniently skip over the 2nd amendment.I will fight not only for restoring civil liberties that have been infringed upon but also work towards ensuring that our kids learn about the Constitution in the way our founding fathers intended...

We're the Only Ones Cryptic Enough
“People out there in scanner land will know our movements and know our tactics. It’s just a pure officer safety issue.” [More]I mean, he'll see everything, he'll ... he'll see the Big Board!
I don't know what the concern is -- after all, "It's an industry standard across the country."
Plus citizen oversight is so tedious, and besides, we have "legitimate news media" in this country to keep us free!

Hail the Conquering Heroes
Why, it's just like the liberation of Paris! [Watch]
And look, "That's Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn at the trigger." You know, the guy who "said he 'fully' supports President Barack Obama's proposals to pass a new ban on assault weapons, limit ammunition magazines to 10 rounds, require background checks for virtually all gun sales and further limit armor-piercing bullets."
Thanks for putting it all in perspective, "legitimate media!" It's for our safety! Plus it's fun for the whole family!
And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free...
Just like that New World Order the Pentagon is hawking in its propagan... uh ... news reports.

We're the Only Ones D.A.R.E.ing Enough
From the same group that would be happy to roll up in an MRAP, do a dynamic entry right through the front door, kill your dog, shoot you for trying to react to a home invasion, find out they're at the wrong house and chalk it all up to established department protocol...
The arrests included Aaron Gage Campbell, 22, of the Crossville Police Department, as well as Kyle Jay Eldridge, 36, a Crossville codes enforcement officer. [More]

So Much for that Wall of Separation
Besides, tolerance and diversity are what make us great. [More]
As long as it doesn't have to be reciprocated. I'm still waiting for the usual suspects to force this issue.

The primary and election are mere formalities. And say, look at what money you spend with Disney helps make happen.
Why does that not surprise me?

- A man's gotta know his limitations.
- Ain't the first time this supposed legal genius has proven himself irrelevant to actual freedom.
Self-Made Stars
The internet is like crack-cocaine for the human ego. And we’re all addicted. [More]I like the fact the writer didn't go blaming guns. And he's got some terrific insights that need to be stated and shared. That said, there's some implied collective guilt that brings to mind the old "What you mean we, Kemosabe?" punchline.
The internet is also like a tool for those who see the information gatekeepers are often ignorant, asleep, corrupt...
Some understand and primarily use it that way, and what they share is not about themselves, but about things that are much more important. Some understand that so-called "social media" can provide ways of climbing over, going around or tunneling under the gates, and that if we don't use it to our advantage, those intent on controlling us most certainly will.
Granted, for the most part I guess the guy is right.
