On top of that, she's a lovely, articulate and seemingly well-adjusted young lady, who keeps things in their proper perspective and honors her father for being a role model, as opposed to a patriarch oppressor. [Watch]
No wonder ugly, cowardly, anonymous "progressive" trolls hate her so.

Disorder in the Court
They showed jurors pictures of Faella and others dressed in military-style outfits and showed video of weapons training on Faella's property. Prosecutors told jurors that they didn't have to prove a specific plan, just show the group was doing the training for some sort of civil disorder. [More]Assuming civil disorders can also be responded to, wasn't that once considered a citizen's duty, along with serving on a jury and voting?
Here's the "law." I see "loopholes" you could drive an MRAP through. Who is responsible for this abomination? Anybody gun owners voted for?
As for what they say he "planned" to do, if they have specific evidence of a criminal conspiracy, bring it, and let him have due process on the charge. Otherwise, it seems he ought to actually need to do something evil in terms of threatening and/or initiating force before he's done anything actionable.
As for the guy being a racist, if he hurt anybody, prosecute him. If he didn't, life is full of distasteful people. Tolerance doesn't mean approval, as much as some insist otherwise.
It sounds like the guy refused to plead and the prosecutor was a dick about it, desperate to get something and pretty sure he could find twelve emotion-driven ignoramuses. Not having heard the evidence or participated in deliberations, I'll admit drawing conclusions from an incomplete picture. That said, from what I see here, my first thought is "What the hell is wrong with juries?" My second is "What the hell is wrong with 'the law'?"
The problem with an unsympathetic character like this is the money to appeal can soon run out, and who wants to tie their name in with contributing to a defense fund for him? So Economic Waco wins and bad law gets bolstered.

Does Race Shape Americans' Passion for Guns?
Only if you're a racist. [More]
More to the point: Does it shape Americans' passion for "gun control"?
Anyone? Bueller?

Gun group warns against continuing resolution surrender by Republicans
That said, gun owners represented by politicians who owe their seats in part to Second Amendment activism, or who are in districts where ignoring or opposing such concerns can jeopardize electability, now have a tool at their disposal to make their will – and the likelihood of their future support – known. In many ways, putting Republicans on notice, and not automatically assuming they will flex their new muscle toward “conservative” ends, may be more crucial than before the GOP House gains and Senate shift. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes recently empowered Republicans preparing to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory -- assuming we let them. Alternatively, we, and by that I include you and me, personally, could take a moment to let them know they're being watched and judged.
The guy I have control over is in.
THAT Explains It
[A]ll proceeds will go to the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence. [More]I wondered why they were all white. I guess "those people" don't "look like America"...?
And yeah, I know, it's been done.

Non-"Progressive" Immigration Policies
From the Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists that brought us Walter Duranty: Letting criminal invaders who will bolster "Progressive" ranks = Good. Letting productive escapees from "Progressive" utopias in = Bad. [More]
Opposite Day, got it?
Meanwhile, here's the policy everyone says would never work. Of course it did, and it proved intervention is not needed but with a small fraction. But then, among all the other things, exposure of the Social Security Ponzi scheme running dry would no longer be a can that could be kicked.

Selling Like Hotcakes!
I'm really looking forward to all those significant changes the Republican establishment will bring us!
Coffee with those hotcakes?
This Day in History: November 18
Been informed by different ways of the Party of the British as a guard for the Cutters and very easy to be taken. I made arrangement with Capt. Willmott who as always brave officer was anxious, too, to put in execution the expedition as fast as possible for fear that they should not change the situation. [More]
