Whether enough gun owners get involved, and whether there is time to turn the I-594 tide remains to be seen. But another point worth raising is that elections aren't supposed to be about what super-wealthy special interests can buy. [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report notes it's up to how much each of us are willing to put into sharing the truth -- right now.

Bloomberg-Gates background check ploy first step to registration, confiscation
Wasted Away Again in Margaritaville
I know, wrong Buffett. [More]
Still, if she pulls it off, some people, me included, will claim there's a RINO to blame. And tell me these questions wouldn't stop her cold in a presidential debate.

We're the Only Ones Fraternal Enough
A Superior Court judge found a suspended Woonsocket police officer guilty of abusing his 9-year-old half-sister by choking her and pulling her 30 feet by her ponytail after she refused to obey his commands. [More]Hey, how can he expect US to respect his authoritah if she won't?
Besides, I can't tell you how many times I used to choke feral sons Uday and Qusay and drag them around by their hair.
We're the Only Ones Hot-Dogging It Enough
Sgt. Brett Harrison left the dog in a cruiser in the station parking lot from about 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., according to a statement from police Tuesday. The cruiser was off and the windows were closed... He received a two-week unpaid suspension and lost 40 hours of vacation. [More]Guess what happens if you cause the death of a police dog in Ohio?

State of Emergency
Malloy exercises his authoritah to isolate Ebola. [More]
Here's the order.
Here's the statute section on quarantines/forced isolation.
If they seal off an area or take you in for observation, will they demand you disarm?

Clearing the Gridlock
GRNC is calling for a tow. [More]
Somebody's gotta stop Troxler's Dodge from blocking avenues to the State Fair from travelers who want to go about their business unimpeded.

Size Matters?
MEN AND VIOLENCE: SIZING UP HOW MEN SIZE UP ONE ANOTHER [More]So let me guess... we're compensating? Alpha dominance? Baboon mounting? Amazing, what gets grant money these days, but I guess there's a ruling elite market to find ways to box up and dismiss traditional males as violent brutes.
Sure, size disparity can be a factor (although the toughest man I ever met and would have least liked to try was almost a foot shorter than me). Sure, human nature tends to magnify threats. Sure, armoring up against an imminent potential foe can prime a battle-ready state of mind if flight isn't an option. My guess is, ivory tower academics who had a light bulb go off over that keen insight never had cause to put on protective gear before a contest.
Somebody needs to formalize this? Whatever. Seems like a cushy gig.
If anything, this makes the case for perception discipline, situational awareness and training. And for a bit of Alinsky Rule 5 ridicule, courtesy of Sgt. Nick Penis and his Brassball Battallion... By the way, comic nerd that I was, I always thought NatLamp was templating off Marvel's pre-Samuel L. Jackson Sgt. Nick Fury and his Howling Commandos, not DC's Sgt. Rock of Easy Company.
And back to the sizing up thing for a moment: Some of us are as polite and deferential to the smaller, the older, the weaker, as we are to the bigger and stronger. Offering respect in personal encounters with others is the default until it is shown not be be deserved.

This Should End Well
And the pressure just turned up a notch... [More]
They're lucky it looks like rainy weather for the next few days.

Of Course They Knew
I won't be surprised to find they kept a lid on things to hush the liaison proclivities of their boss from being leaked out. [More]
DIY for PLs
And yes, of course they also loathe doing things for yourself. What they would impose requires dependence. And obedience. And ultimately, slave labor camps.
You know, the antithesis of DIY.
I love the Kos hissy-bitch quote Kurt called out. It really shows they have no clue what true egalitarianism -- as opposed to organized theft disguised as mandated economic outcomes -- entails in terms of power-sharing.
Funny, how they call themselves "progressives." Opposite Day, remember?
Progressive Luddites. That's pretty fittingly descriptive, and it really highlights the Orwellian contradiction these people live their lives (and try to live ours) by. I think I'm going to start calling them PLs.
When I'm not calling them something else...
The "Authorized Journalists" Behind the Misleading "Ban" Deception
It's not a "ban," you idiots. [More]
But you all know that. And if you don't, you have no business calling yourselves "reporters."
Judging from this PR profile masked as "news," you have no business doing that regardless.

This Day in History: October 9
However necessary my retirement from the service may be to the Reestablishment of my health, & support of a numerous family, I cannot without real concern and regret, (at this time especially,) quit a service in which I have from principle and the warmest attachment been engaged from the commencement of the War; But finding it utterly incompatible with my felicity to continue longer amongst a Sett of Officers, combined against me either thro’ envy or from an unjustifiable ardency for promotion, and with whom I can’t preserve that harmony which ever ought to Subsist Amongst Officers; I must request Your Excellency will be pleased to accept of my resignation, & likewise trust your Excellency will Afford me admission equally honorable, with the testimonials of Approbation I’ve here-to-fore received, for my Services.
