Threat to gun rights of accepting illegal immigrants largely ignored

Mandatory universal background checks to obtain a gun are among the current demands by those who insist the government does not have enough information and impose enough control and restrictions on U.S. citizens. The theory, unfounded, of course (and an obvious precursor to registration), is that conducting them will reduce violent crime. Still, if one is to credit backers of such measures with being sincere, it makes little sense to demand background checks in one case, but to not only turn a blind eye, but to attack people for advocating doing them on the intentionally undocumented.

Anybody really think political and legal victories will be likely in 20 years unless this turns around now?  Anybody think legislative and judicial gains of the past several years aren't reversible?

Tea Party Patriots of Luna County bring more details on the federal persecution of this family while the "real reporters" remain oblivious and silent.

You know about the Reese family, right? And you've helped out, or at the very least spread the word that otherwise won't get out?

Coals to Newcastle

‘‘This is happening in Newcastle, it’s not Sydney, it’s not Redfern, it’s not America. This is Newcastle,’’ Ms O’Brien said outside court. [More]

So it can happen anywhere? And "gun control" doesn't work?

And getting shot in real life isn't always like in the movies?

Before automatically dismissing the caliber, it might help to see what they taught in the FBI Academy Firearms Training Unit:

It wouldn't be my first choice, but were it the closest choice, I sure wouldn't turn my nose up at it.

‘We Need To Stamp [Anti-LGBT] Attitudes Out Ruthlessly’

Lie:

Opposition from conservative groups in the area has been nil aside from a slight dustup when a few cab drivers were upset with Gay Games ads on their vehicles — a headline that faded overnight.

Ignore and suppress the truth: Just as in the above example, note how many consciously avoid the word "Muslim," even though they know the truth.  Funny, how the "progressives" didn't raise a peep. No wonder it "faded overnight."

Pick an agenda topic, any topic. Lather, rinse, repeat.

You Go Ahead and Believe That

No one I know is "freaked out." [More]

Well, maybe you are, resorting to demonstrable lies and insults for your online rabble-rousing. No wonder you hide behind a screen name.

I welcome "progressive" sows showing the world how udderly ridiculous, pathetic, desperate and ineffectual they are.

As Oliver said, "Please sir, I want some more." Just to point and laugh at.

Assuming they were card-carrying MILMs is understandable, considering who first brought up the subject of boobs as a warranted response to open carriers.  Ditto, that gaggle of harridans being subsidized ain't exactly a secret.

By the way, that "one motivated Marine" was one of yours, one motivated Prozi -- and an ACLU member who killed an NRA Life Member, to boot.

All the Prozis have are insults and lies.  That's evidenced by all the familiar sadists - psychopaths / infiltrators - disruptors  flinging feces in "comments" over at my Everytown video piece. I especially appreciate the dolt who continually takes the time to write out comment essays, like he knows what he's talking about, and then resorts to name-calling and complaining that those recognizing what a pompous, no-nothing ass he is are guilty of "Spam."

They say don't feed the trolls, and I agree. That doesn't mean we can't bait them.
