Lott’s Response to Demographic Impact on 2nd Amendment Silent on Immigration

In truth, by stating a reality the establishment would rather we not notice, Winkler has given us an unintended gift. Rather than rejecting his thesis outright, we ought to seize on it and use it to defend against the biggest threat facing gun owners: Politically-motivated policies encouraging massive immigration leading to citizenship. [More]

There's still a major question that needs to be answered before we can pat Adam Winkler on his head and send him on his way. Obama and Hillary know the answer. Why won't the big names on "our side" even ask it?

I think Marilyn had better have a talk with Mary Ann, who does, after all, tell everyone she's an "expert."

We're the Only Ones Open Enough

Florida sheriffs oppose open-carry legislation [More]

Seems I recall someone addressing this phenomenon of the help forgetting their place before... ah, here it is. Funny, that post concerned uppity Florida "Only Ones," too.

From "One of the People," Philadelphia Federal Gazette, July 2, 1789:

"What should we think of a gentleman, who, upon hiring a waiting-man, should say to him—'my friend, please to take notice, before we come together, that I shall always claim the liberty of eating when and what I please, of fishing and hunting upon my own ground, of keeping as many horses and hounds as I can maintain, and of speaking and writing my sentiments upon all subjects.' A servant must be a fool, who would not suppose such a master to be a madman... Let these truths sink deep into our hearts: that the people are the masters of their rulers and that rulers are the servants of the people..."

Anybody think bodyguards dictate to the "progressive" elites what they may or may not do?

You're right. It is an offensive joke.

I rest my case.

Here's their "retraction"-- they don't sound very sorry, passing the buck and the blame down like that. Think it'll get anywhere near as many eyeballs?

UPDATE

It's All Academic

An evidence professor at IU Law has apologized after she faked an angry intruder in order to prove that eyewitness testimony is not always trustworthy. People called 911 and hid under desks, and rumor has it at least one student left through the emergency exit. [More]

Pulling stupid stunts like this may partially explain why the Opposite Day "progressive" intellectual leadership doesn't want guns on campus.

The Crux of the Matter

Ackerman McQueen, an Oklahoma public relations firm, has run the NRA’s confrontational publicity campaigns and driven many of its political victories for more than 30 years. In that time, the firm has forged a symbiotic relationship that has kept LaPierre unchallenged in power and Ackerman McQueen in lucrative contracts. [More]

Everything else is incidental. I'm trying to track down and validate info that Wayne just got a nice six-figure raise. Realistically, I'll probably have to wait for the 2015 Form 990 to come out to verify that.

In the mean time, here's the latest available on where the money goes.

Curious-- I hadn't realized $25M was being funneled to InfoCision in Akron for membership processing and solicitation. With that kind of revenue boost for the local economy, one that used to be nothing but booming due to all the tire companies that have since moved production jobs to lands of cheaper labor, you'd think there'd be some incentive to get the political establishment to distance itself from Bloomberg -- or at least take "weapons" off the InfoCision Stadium "prohibited items" list.

Commonsense Gun Safety Law Wish List Fulfillment

Police in New Jersey say an elderly man shot and killed his mother at an assisted living facility Sunday afternoon before turning the gun on himself. [More]

I don't get it  -- if he did everything "right," he was permitted and licensed to own a handgun, the "authorities" had records of all transfers of the firearm since its initial retail sale, and he had one of those "very limited issue" carry permits.

And WTF is this 62 = "elderly" crap? That strikes me as a potentially dangerous meme to be putting in the public mind, especially at the dawn of the age of death panels.

Rotten to the Common Core

Common Core backers are sneaking a social and political agenda into nationalized curriculum, say critics, who now have new ammo in a writing lesson plan for teachers that they say gives a slanted perspective of the gun debate. [More]

Yep. See for yourself.

Oh, look who champions Common Core!

A Pro-Traditional Marriage Candidate You Can Count On

With all the "progressive" squabbling going on over DOMA intent, they sure are missing the main point.  That's because they know Hillary was flat-out lying about it for political power reasons and approve that tactic. Plus, they know that even if the useful idiots are given direct evidence Hillary was lying to them, they'll still vote for her because ... well, because they're useful idiots.
