This is a placeholder for now because I have not had ads on this blog for years. In case I ever start up again, this will be the policy in effect:
The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don't think we're getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you're stupid, too. I have had a few ads on this site in the past and may do so again if I think it's worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn't buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don't mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now--you're not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer.
About "The Only Ones"
The purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it's also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they're involved in gun-related incidents.
Comment House Rules
Keep them on topic. No spam. No threats against anyone except me. Do not feed trolls--I'll take out the trash. Try to keep it clean. I'm the final arbiter. If you don't like the rules, start your own damn blog.
Link Policy
WarOnGuns reciprocates links with liberty-oriented sites promoting the right to keep and bear arms for all peaceable individuals. If you have linked to me and don't see your site below, it's probably just because I haven't noticed it yet. Shoot me an email via the "Contact Form" (see above in this sidebar) if you want to fix that.
As a general rule I remove links for blogs that have been inactive for over one year.
Some of these guys have decided to engage, but the bottom line is, a critical mass of us will not comply with illegal infringements no matter what stupid sh!+ these hive insects try to come up with.
As usual, proggies obscure the real point. They purposely conflate the case of a “free market” merchant refusing to have his personal beliefs dictated to him, with a “monopoly” government official imposing his beliefs on everybody else. You can always buy a cake from another merchant — you can’t get a license or any sort from another government down the street.
Dear, dear Sally Kohn, you utterly contemptible bint: Genuine, actual conservatives (such as yours truly) - as opposed to certain "SoCons", which is a different breed of animal, vegetable or mineral altogether - ALREADY (mostly) insist upon clear-cut separation between "Church" and "State". That's precisely what that li'l contretemps with that "religious" slightly-moronic Gubment clerk in KY is all about, y'know?
Oh, and BLC, et.al.: 1) Which "religion" is it that's "against guns"? Buddhism? Rastafarianism? - and 2) It should be pointed out that, if you live in a place where a town clerk's personal "religious convictions" might even conceivably cause you any sort of problems in either lawfully owning a gun or lawfully getting married, you really need to either re-think your choice of residency or get a really competent lawyer on a speed-dial listing.
Really stoopid try at a "pertinent" hypothetical, BTW...

Clearly this person never heard of "may issue" states.
