That said, of more immediate shared concern for NRA and GOA should be what they intend to do now that Bloomberg has thrown his support behind Cochran. Will GOA modify its grade, and come up with compelling reasons for doing so? Will NRA rescind its endorsement and back challenger McDaniel? Will they do it now, today, and make their voices heard loud and clear, for maximum impact, and to help counter an influx of Democrat crossover voters? [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes mixed messages that could cause a good candidate to lose, not to mention call some credibility into question that ought not to be.

Bloomberg’s support of Cochran puts gun groups on spot to justify ‘A’ ratings

Over at Guns Save Lives... [More]
Unfortunately, there's no way to show unreported incidents, where a gun was presented, no shots were fired, and no police report was made and/or it didn't make the papers.

Follow the Bouncing Ball
I'm starting to think "hickenlooper" is a noun referring to someone who employs circular arguments, or hickenloops, that go all over the place only to end up where they started after pi$$ing everybody off. [More]
I don't see how the "reporter" concluded serial obfuscation and reversals "clarify" anything.
And I still want to hear somebody sing that blues song...

What Fates Impose, that Men Must Needs Abide
If it's all an illusion, and there's no such thing as free will, then how can anyone be held accountable for what they do? [More]
Gee, sorry, couldn't help myself with all that background noise...
This must be why we who believe in individual responsibility are so fundamentally wrong.
There are exploitable implications, aren't there?

There Is a Rose in Spanish Harlem
Through immigration and redistricting, what is now New York’s 13th Congressional District — a seat Rangel has held since 1971 and viewed as the center of New York’s modern black political power structure — has experienced a seismic demographic shift from majority black to majority Hispanic. [More]Yeah, keep siding with that fundamental transformation. Then find out how expendable you are.
Leave it to WaPo Prozis to use a phrase like "attended by New York’s black political royalty" with not just a straight face, but a fawning one.
Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!
Jay Carney during a White House press briefing (6/27/2012): "The president did not know about this tactic until he heard about it through the media; the attorney general did not know about it." [More]Yeah, sure.
Anyone who believes Number 8 surprised them believes in Underpants Gnomes.
If Only There Were No Guns
Police said the driver fired multiple shots into Shamburger’s car, striking him and causing him to crash into a utility pole. The shooter then fled. He was described as a black male 18 to 25 years old. [More]Well, if that doesn't justify disarming all of us, nothing does.
A Grimm Prognosis
For gun nuts, Dale Norman had just become their very own Rose Parks. [More]It figures someone so contemptuous of rights wouldn't even get her name right. It's not like the "A" is next to the "E" on keyboards, so he can't claim it's just a typo.
All he has are childish insults that barely disguise his impotent rage.
If you think about it, that's a good thing.
Protecting the Second
Claire Wolfe explains how those pushing for "universal background checks" are subverting the Fourth Amendment, too. Good stuff -- share it. [More]
Red Alert?
GUN GRAB ALERT! UN Caught Posting New York "DDR" Jobs for DISARMAMENT! [Watch]
Looks real to me--the job, that is. What it ultimately means in terms of real and imminent danger, vs. another ineffectual a bureaucratic placement, is unknown.
Here's a detailed job description. I can't open a related PeopleSoft link without enabling cookies, something I'm not prepared to do at the moment.
"Caught" implies they were trying to hide it. The opening could be related to administrative functions following Obama and Kerry acting like the ATT is something they have legitimate executive authority to regard as de facto ratified. I'd also need to know if such a position has ever been filled here before and what those people did. While I wouldn't be inclined to jump to such "definitive" conclusions, this certainly merits being looked into.

The Man with the X-Ray Eyes
Superman had X-ray vision. Now, so does the United States military, in the form of an X-ray gun that can see through fabric, rubber and aluminum to find drugs, money, explosive liquids and even people. [More]For some reason I'm reminded of a Family Guy episode...

Too Much, Magic Bus
Donations from New York Times readers helped purchase a bus and pay a driver's salary so the students could have secure rides to and from class. [More]Well then hell, we can get rid of all armed security everywhere and hire a bunch of bus drivers.
To the moon, Alice!

Thanks, But No Thanks
Dems are realizing Gabby's a liability. [More]
Except for Jill Hanauer, who reminds me of no one so much as Eric Idle at the end of "Life of Brian."

What Price Freedom?
I imagine there were significant costs to eradicating other forms of slavery, too. What of it? [More]
