Notes from the Resistance...
What could be the reason gay activists only seem to sue fundamentalist Christians, and seem to leave fundamentalist Islamists alone? And what do you think the reason is the government abets unequal treatment under the law, with draconian fines and enforcement against one group, while turning a blind eye to equivalent actions by another? [More]“Wrong thinking is punishable; right thinking will be as quickly rewarded. You will find it an effective combination.”
Chief amongst those would be the implementation of a new "Firearm Eligibility Card" which all PA resident gunowners would need to have and keep on them at all times if they're transporting their firearms. If you check out the full text, you'll see that they criminalize the possession of firearms if you don't have a FEC. There is a LOT of crap in this bill -- including a $50 application fee, mandatory training requirements, and a $30 renewal on top of loosely worded "Sheriff's Fee" and other administrative fees. Basically, it makes the prospect of legally owning and transporting a gun all the more precarious and dangerous for the gunowner. [More]Here's the beast in question. The guy who posted this says it's not getting needed attention. Anybody know if that's because it doesn't have a chance of getting passed, or is this something to worry about?
The Los Angeles City Council has voted unanimously to require gun owners to store their firearms in locked containers. Under the ordinance, handguns will need to be disabled and kept on the owner's person or within close enough proximity that it is in the owner's control. [More]That's confusing-- I need to see the actual ruling. If it's not clumsy reporting (should it be "disabled OR kept"?), that would seem to run afoul of Heller, in which the Supreme Court said it was unconstitutional to require all firearms be "unloaded and disassembled or bound by a trigger lock." SCOTUS nonetheless did not "suggest the invalidity of laws regulating the storage of firearms to prevent accidents."
Last week, 72 women's and civil rights groups requested that the DOE require schools to monitor social media to protect students from threatening and offensive comments. [More]For some reason, I can't get a Mencken quote out of my mind.
The fiercely independent head of the FBI is directing the investigation into Clinton’s use of a personal email server and attendant issues raised during the Benghazi inquiry, which could lead to indictments of the former Secretary of State or her various aides ... Comey has shown a nettlesome tendency to stray off the Obama reservation. [More]Things are getting interesting.
Showdown looms on campus carry ... There is a growing consensus among higher education leaders that the state’s new campus carry law gives university presidents the discretion to ban guns in classrooms, but also hands regents and the Legislature the final say, setting up a possible future showdown. [More]Yes Inigo? You had something you wanted to say?
A Lakewood Police agent was hit in the leg with ricochet at the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office gun range Tuesday morning. [More]WarOnGuns has obtained exclusive video.
Feds Investigate Hobby Lobby Boss for Illicit Artifacts [More]Take those blasphemous antiquities away from the infidel Crusader and return them to their proper owners so they can be blown up. Plus, the administration gets to bully and harass some people who didn't bend and spread 'em on command.
NYPD caught using X-ray vans to search the public, refuses court order to release details [More]See, you're transparent, not we're transparent.
In addition, anyone who knows about a workplace safety or health hazard may report unsafe conditions to OSHA, and OSHA will investigate the concerns reported.That would roll into PESH, right? I don't have time to go through all their bureaucratic rigmarole, so I think just tweeting a link to the top dogs will suffice to establish a record they've been put on notice, and if they ignore it, any fallout will reflect on them.
The “Just Words” campaign launched by the college seeks, “to raise awareness of microaggressions, their impact, [and] provide an insight into their meaning,” WMU’s website says. [More]I don't suppose it occurs to any of these narcissistic sociopaths that if this is all they have to bitch about, they are among the most fortunate and privileged physically-provided for human beings of all time, all of it evidently undeserved and beyond their capabilities to handle.
