“I will be happy to come down and personally take your guns,” he promises in another. “Unarmed. With a ton of video cameras. Let's see your alpha bravery in person.” [More]This evening’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes if you want to be taken seriously as an actor (which in itself might be an oxymoron), there are better way than threatening to take peoples’ guns and then not being able to follow up on it.

Anti-gun fanatics continue to confirm no amount of citizen disarmament enough
Well, Knock Me Over with a Feather
“I don’t think that there’s any law that would have prevented the tragedy in Santa Barbara.” [More]You take this one, Gomer. I'm still working on a column.
Really?
Are you sure you want to unleash the power of unrestrained personal incentive and ingenuity in such a widespread and uncontrollable manner? [More]
I'm thinking that's a pretty monstrous idea that would only be planned by domestic enemies working in concert with foreign ones. I'm thinking anyone who participated had best be prepared for the personal accountability that will follow.
You sure you don't want to rethink this?
UPDATE: Oh thank goodness. It's not us they're going to fight. It's "climate change." Because that, as we all know,is an entirely new phenomenon for Planet Earth, and must be stopped. Along, I suppose with Plate Tectonics.
Hey, uh, does the military buy carbon credits? I'm thinking for when they listen to the Prozis and nuke us...

I Hate to Say I Told You So
You say gun control doesn't work? Fine. Let's ban guns altogether. [More]But I did. Not that it was all that difficult to see.
Every time the prevaricating Prozis (but I repeat myself) start prattling on about "common sense gun safety laws" and "no one wants to take your guns," show them for the liars that they demonstrably are.
I note linking from blogs hits a registration block. I've found putting the title into Google comes up with a linked result that doesn't do that when you click on it for some reason, at least for me.
Not that I care if the LA Times gets traffic, but I want the option to read this to be yours.
We're Number Five!
I typically don't even crack the top 20, and if you look at everyone above me, you can see the priorities shared by so many that outweigh RKBA among the heirs of liberty. Just in case you wonder how the antis manage to find so many uninformed people focused on trivia and ready to eat up their lies...
The pH Factor continues to work its magic.
And for some reason, I continue to find relevance in a line from "Apocalypse Now."
We're the Only Ones Consistent Enough
“When a police officer is confronted with threatening behavior, he or she has the fundamental, individual right of self-defense under the Second Amendment, consistent with every other citizen, to protect himself or herself, and others, from apparent and immediate harm.” [More]Just so that door really does swing both ways, and that when we use it, it's not dismissed as a foolish consistency...
Killer Resident Gunman Shoots Death Device in Front of Children!
Deputies say four siblings -- ages 22, 18, 11 and 8 -- were in the home just before 6 a.m. when the 22-year-old man heard the sound of someone breaking through a door, then saw a least two people in his home. The man got a handgun out of a safe and confronted the suspects. Deputies say the man and at least one intruder exchanged fire. [More]The MILMs, of course, would rather the residents had been killed than armed.
Preferably with a gun, so they could start another blood dance and demand more "common sense gun safety laws."

Maya Got Her Gun
Fine and good. [More]
But as with celebrities, it hardly made her "pro-gun."

Are You Talking to a Provocateur?
Or even just a compromised snitch? [More]
Be careful. If they're going to pick any fruit, let it be low-hanging.
I had an idea a few years back, essentially a certification that associates are not working for law enforcement in any capacity. I was told by those I asked to review it that it wouldn't work because cops can lie.
There appear to be limits.
Where my idea was different is it involved having the assurance notarized, meaning the person making it would be providing identification to ensure he's who he said he was, and attesting to it on a notarized statement. So anyone putting together a group of patriots for training and practice could have a notary show up at the meeting to witness and record signatures.
I still don't know if that would work, but would think, at a minimum, most snitches wouldn't know the law and what they could or could not formally do in that regard. Those people might hesitate out of fear of setting themselves up on criminal charges if their statement were later proven false, meaning anyone who has to put if off is someone to be wary of.
Any lawyers care to weigh in?

About Those Claims That "Gun Violence Disproportionately Harms Women"
John Lott shows they're BS and the antis are lying. [More]
I could link to my standard Gomer "Surprise, surprise, surprise!" fallback, but I think I'll link to this again instead.
Why isn't this man's work being supported? Don't gun owners see the benefits this will give them personally? So what have they done to help (they can get in for as little as one measly buck) and to spread the word (they can do that in a matter of seconds)?
Besides offer lame excuses and demonstrate more Profiles in Apathy...?

One Pill Makes You Larger and One Pill Makes You Small
Or as Morpheus said, "You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes." [More]
Or you could take Risperdal and grow yourself a set of D-cups, just the thing to calm severely twisted adolescent males down...

See, We Should Require These for EVERYONE
If you're not thinking anything wrong, what have you got to fear? [More]
And of course we'll need a remote shutoff switch.
Just think how safe and secure we'll be!

"Minuteman" Defense?
The firearms will be marketed to law enforcement in Kansas and nationwide. [More]So you're selling to the standing army and not to the militia? Really? Including "Only Ones" in places like New Jersey and California, who can use them against We the People while they enforce "gun laws"?
The company plans to produce rifles based on the AR-15 and AR-10 platform, similar to the military M-16 rifle.
So which will they perform like?
Did the AP get this right or did they misreport intentions?
Let's ask Kris. Because as written, this seems more like Minutemen Defenseless.

Today's Five-Minute Activism
Three easy steps:
In re contacting Ted Cruz and Rand Paul, I find it easier and faster to send them the GOA link using Twitter. Like so:
See how easy that was? All that's left is to share on other social media such as Facebook, like I keep harping on, and which will literally only take seconds.
Thusly:
Now if only they'd create a quick and easy to use form encouraging gun owners with total crap reps to contact (and support) good reps in up-for-grabs states and districts.
- Read.
- Do.
- Share.

We're the Only Ones Circumstantial Enough
... the circumstances that caused the firearm to discharge... [More]Sounds like the Marine vet has it nailed.
Herschel has more.
And more.
And directly unrelated, but tangentially interesting, providing yet more documentation that with "progressives," every day is Opposite Day, he notes an atheist tearing down that wall of separation they're so fond of using as a barrier.
We're the Only Ones Inappropriate Enough
That's the strongest word they can come up with for what appears to be a scary, stalking sicko creep? [More]
His not showing up in court was enough to dismiss the case? Do the rest of us have that option? [See Chris Mallory's comment-- I believe he's right and I misread that part.]
And allowing him to remain deployed with the military until this goes away, instead of dragging him back to face criminal charges is in whose interests?
Maybe when he comes back we can thank him for his service!
See, that's another reason commonly given for why police have powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men -- they're subject to oversight!

“We don’t condone his behavior. We don’t want this kind of behavior from our police officers and we’re hoping that he learned his lesson,” said Jeff Follmer, president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association.Well, that'll certainly teach him!

The Obvious Solution
A week after the Isla Vista mass shootings that left six students dead and revived the debate over gun control, Mayor Eric Garcetti announced plans Wednesday for a gun buyback program this weekend. [More]Say, why didn't we think of this before...?
Disregard that even the feds have admitted ... well, see for yourself:
So naturally, that's what LA city government and its "Only Ones" will opt for. See, they're counting on that "coupled with a ban" part to come true.
I wonder if Chief Beck is going to trot out the "rocket launcher" and endanger the public again...?

We're the Only Ones Training Enough
Here's a test for the teachers. Point your finger at them and say "Bang!" [More]
If that's not met with an armed response, or at least a beatdown, proceed to Step Two: Ask them if they're teaching you the same response they use when confronted with armed suspects.
Don't forget to ask if there's a waiver form you need to sign, absolving them if their advice gets you killed, or if there's a reason why they feel they don't need one.

A Time for Us
There is a time, a place and a manner for such discussions. He could easily wait several days. [More]Like all you foaming-at-the-mouth Prozis did, right?
Prozis Can't Contain Themselve
I could tell from all the rage generated by simply observing no amount of laws will be enough for the antis that the less restrained among them would be unable to maintain the "common sense gun safety laws" facade any longer. [More]
Inconvenient Truths
CNN's "gun control" poll isn't working out quite the way they'd hoped. [More]
See?
Funny thing, though:
Why would they put it in their "international" section, and what's with people reporting their votes aren't being counted?
I guess they were at least being truthful in their "This is not a scientific poll" caveat.
