Reports of Our Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated
It’s long been conventional wisdom that fighting for gun control is a good way to end a politician’s career. But advocates of tighter gun laws are pointing to a pair of victories in the Pacific Northwest as evidence that the tide may be shifting. [More]Oregon Firearms Federation says don't uncork those champagne bottles just yet.
I'd add that even if the gun-grabbers' political dreams all come true, there's still that little matter of enforcement, and some of us will not comply.
Tradition!
What kinds of people are setting the tone for The New York Times? [More]The same kind that always have.
A Numbers Game
The federal government can tell you how many "Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islanders" stole a car, the precise number of "American Indian or Alaska Natives" who were arrested for vagrancy or how many whites were busted for counterfeiting in any given year. But the government agencies that crunch crime numbers are utterly unable -- or unwilling -- to pinpoint for the public how many illegal immigrants are arrested within U.S. borders each year. [More]It's OK...just call for more "gun control" and the media will make you a star.
A Public/Private Partnership
Join the mutual suckfest with DOJ and NSSF: A match made where, again? [More]
My, aren't we "reasonable." But wait: The Prozis refer to "NSSF's extremism on the gun issue." Does that mean playing nice doesn't buy any points, and they still want to attack no matter how much ground you cede?
What else can we give up so they'll like us?
And remember: Enforce existing Intolerable Acts!
Hell, why not improve them...?

Cartoonish Call for More ATF Funding Disregards Bureau Time-to-Crime Stats
Seeing as how there’s not a “source state” on the map that can’t be driven to in hours, or at most in two days, the lack of newer model firearms would seem to indicate that “pipeline” is pretty severely clogged. Either that or the whole concept is a fiction created by gun-grabbers to mask the utter failure of their efforts to date at achieving promised results — and to cast the blame for that on states where their grasp is not as tight. [More]It's Opposite Day, with Sponge Bob and Hakeem!
Through Dialog with Individuals Like Me
[More]
Still, what this does is provides a demonstrable example that we can bypass "constituents only" website contact forms and get to politicians straight through social media -- a point I've been making for some time. Thing is, if it's only me, that's easy to ignore.
I'm going to stay on this. Whether I do so alone is out of my hands.
A Question of Delivery
Levy plans to post a link to the online auction later this week on her website. [More]Assuming she finds someone sick enough to buy this abomination, how does the "progressive" attention-seeking headcase, but I repeat myself, plan on making delivery? As this is biohazardous waste material, what special packaging/shipping precautions must be taken, and what notifications/data must be provided to the carriers and the recipient?

Apparently Latimer was a George Bush speechwriter, and even former administration members think the guy has some truth issues. But hey, he's "a wry observer and witty raconteur," and when you've got Establishment credentials, that's what really matters, isn't it?
