George Zimmerman to break media silence on Armed American Radio

Unknown at this time will be the extent of anticipated reactions by those in the angrily vocal camp against George Zimmerman, notably from personalities like Al Sharpton, and from members of the New Black Panther Party, who in 2012 offered a $10,000 bounty for Zimmerman's capture. It is for reasons of personal safety and security, as well as so the interview does not get disrupted and halted by protesters, that the physical location is being withheld. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner report announces an upcoming event that is sure to kindle some flames of hatred, and no doubt protests against even allowing this to happen.  Note that, like with another major story we're all familiar with here, it's not the "Authorized Journalists" who earned the trust to get the subject to open up.

Departing from the Narrative

How the hell are we supposed to follow the Bloomberg script with stuff like this happening? [More]

Love Story

"Don't apologize," several family members replied. "We love you. We love you."  [More]

No, apologize. You will never be able to make restitution to those you damaged, endangered and inconvenienced.

What the hell kind of entitled attitude is that from the family? Is that's how this lunatic was raised, to be a remorseless sociopath?

How come there don't seem to be any pictures of this guy in any of the news accounts?

I was on for the last two hours after getting in from the long drive.  I was exhausted, but it was a good way to unwind.

A Fond Farewell

Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham set the right tone with his tweet: "I appreciate AG Holder's service to our country even though we had strong disagreements at times. I wish him well in future endeavors." [More]

Thanks, Grahamnesty. Between that and we ought to thank the guy, who needs syrup of ipecac?

Naturally, they refer to "the bungled 'Fast and Furious' gun-running sting operation," without ever questioning where the potential for a sting was. But what the hell: Even The Washington Times is still throwing out "the botched Fast and Furious gunwalking operation" as if not botching it would have been a better outcome.

The important thing to remember:

Analysts said Mr. Holder — the first sitting Cabinet official ever to face a contempt citation from Congress — will likely duck any legal punishment...

Not the Only One

‘Good Cop’ Could Go to Jail After Reporting Misconduct in His Department [More]

We rightfully complain about officers who allow corruption and abuse to occur through their silence. What incentive will we provide to change that, and how are we any different, if we stand by and remain silent ourselves when this occurs?

Shades of Grey

WarOnGuns Correspondent GMW notices every photo in the Everytown banner is in color except the flag, and wonders why. He also notes their logo uses three horizontal lines in an obvious representation of the flag.

Not that I'm signing on to the belief that such stripes have any actual occult significance, and that's not a rabbit hole I intend to go down, except to note that some among the culturally influential elites evidently believe they do...

A Strongly-Worded Letter

You've gotta lay the groundwork and show you tried to resolve things. That should help in the ensuing defamation lawsuit, which one would think would include SPLC. [More]

Lies, Damned Lies and Gun-Grabber Claims

“What we've essentially done is empowered felons to have guns.” [More]

Really?  Here's Amendment 5:

And here's from the "fair ballot language":

This amendment does not prevent the legislature from limiting the rights of certain felons and certain individuals adjudicated as having a mental disorder.

"Editorial boards."  Is it any wonder we love them so?

UPDATE: See Kurt's take in "Police chief sues to overturn will of the voters, make gun rights 'alienable'."

Those Like Her

Is there any doubt what's in store for us if this domestic enemy and those like her "win"? [More]

Seeing as she's Vice Chair of the DNC, and a contributor to CNN, ABC News, Ms and O Magazines, guess who "those like her" are?

Another Death from Gun Violence

Anti-Gun Activist Maria Faisal is Furious.

Good.  Noting the last name and instances in which it occurs on the internet, I have to wonder if she eats pork anyway. [More]

Think about the type of indignant control freak who would react that way to something that is none of her damn business, that is, your typical MILM.

And if you're ever in Port Allen, LA, stop by Bergeron's Restaurant to get your 10% discount.

Give 'em an attaboy here.  And ignore the whiner throwing crossbows into the mix just to be a spoiler. If his Facebook page is any indication, he's a Prozi disruptor.
