Don’t Expect Media Apology after Attempt to Blame Importer for ‘Paris Terror Gun’ Fails

“In fact, the gun in question was not involved in the attacks and has been in Mexican government custody since March of this year, according to U.S. authorities,” AP now admits. “[T]he gun was received by Century and eventually sent to a federal firearms licensee in the United States and purchased by an individual in February 2014.

The antis are like a bloodthirsty lynch mob that -- when it finds out it almost hanged the wrong guy -- doesn't care and is clamoring to do it again.

Riding Out Alone

Sen. Rand Paul is pushing for a vote to restrict President Obama's ability to enact new gun control regulations. [More]
Yeah, well here's the thing:
Cosponsors none......Prognosis 12% chance of getting past committee. 3% chance of being enacted.
Every single politician who enjoys an "A" rating ought to be up their leading on this, and demanding the Republicans act like they were given majorities for a reason.

Why?

As for the threatened boycott, he's going to have to decide what's more important to him. It would be an easy call for me, since I fear that when I die and go to hell, they're going to make me watch sports.

The Very Model of a Modern Major General.

Eight Afghan Air Force pilots graduated Friday morning from a program hosted by the 81st Fighter Squadron. [More]
Here's what caught my attention more than anything:
Maj. Gen. James Hecker, who presented the Afghan graduates with a plaque and certificate Friday, said there are no new updates on the missing men and Homeland Security is leading the investigation.
“There is no indications that the missing trainees will do any harm,” said Hecker. “It took 18 months just to get them clearance to come in.”
What more indications does he need? And since he evidently doesn't have a clue as to where the runaways are, why they ran, who they're with and what they're doing, his assurances aren't exactly consoling. Matter of fact, Fletcher would like a word with him.

Risk Factor-Based 'Rights'

"College students are already known to disproportionately engage in high[-]risk behaviors such as binge drinking and to struggle with mental health issues including thoughts of suicide,” the representatives write. “Increasing students’ access to guns only increases the likelihood that volatile situations on campus will end in tragedy.” [More]
So if the criteria for denying RKBA is disproportionate high risk behavior. alcohol abuse, mental health issues and suicide, guess which major "progressive" constituency cannot be trusted with guns.

Go on, guess.

And do I then dare point out this and this and this and this?

No, I didn't think so.

God forbid we should have equal treatment under the law in this country.

God forbid we should treat human rights as belonging to individuals, as opposed to privileges to be dispensed or withheld based on where those individuals fall within the collective.

Unless, I suppose, you happen to be in the right group.

And Enemy Number 1?  Hey guy, the line wraps around the block.  Get in the back of it and wait your turn.

One of the lying tactics fascists at sites like Opposite Day Think Progress pull is recounting the guy's "pro-gun" achievements. like they approve of them. So they show the guy being a hunter, just to con the Fudds.

Separating makes targets easier to pick off.

We're the Only Ones Resigned Enough

The police officer whose fatal shooting of VonDerrit Myers Jr. triggered protests last fall resigned from the force on Saturday after police opened a drunk-driving investigation into an early morning crash involving his department-issued vehicle ... When police responded to the accident, a witness said a police car had caused the damage and fled. Officers found the car at Flanery’s house nearby. [More]
In other words, he wanted to make it home at the end of his shift...?

I should say not.

Not that I'm looking for a spoiler, but the bear doesn't leave anything on the ground for Leo at the end, does it?

Oh, and here's a lesson in AP style:

A bit of descriptive information has been intentionally left out from what our trusty information gatekeepers deem the public needs to know. Thank goodness this was not a "hate crime," since the "progressives" tell us that some people are genetically incapable of racism.
