Everything in Moderation

Co-moderator Judy Woodruff happens to be a donor to the Clinton Foundation... [More]
And the Judy Woodruff Integrity in Journalism Award goes to ... Judy Woodruff!

Way to contain those questions there!

Home Improvement


Here are more pictures from Mike's home improvement work weekend. [More]

If you're a regular SSI reader it's because you get regular value from Mike's work.  Have you shown him you appreciate that with an appropriate gratitude offering?  And have you done your part to spread the word?

Just because we talked about it a while back doesn't mean I'm done talking. If yes, have you received value since?  If you haven't responded at all, why not?

Why not go here and help out like it asks?

It doesn't matter if it's just a dollar if that's all you can afford -- remember the widow's mites. And passing the info on to others doesn't cost a thing.

We're the Only Ones Not Kidding Enough

Gun owner saved cop from attack by kids [More]
Sorry, if they were "kids," it would have gone like this, and he wouldn't have needed any help.

What I'm really hoping to see is the "Authorized Journalists" having to discontinue using "teen" because it's a "racist code word."

Team America, World Police

That’s because we don’t pay for national defence. The United States does. [More]
Or more precisely, those of us who are productive and generate or possess assets to plunder do. And we're paying for Europe's and Asia's defenses, too.  Not to mention disproportionately footing the UN bill.

There's so much that needs to be reset. So much that needs to be just stopped...

So Much for Not Being Able to Sue Gun Manufacturers

Of course you can -- if  their products are defective. [More]

Just like you can sue anybody else.

The antis doing all the lying are just mad that they can't destroy the gun industry for criminal and negligent misuse of products that meet quality standards and perform to spec.

That said, anyone who views a safety on any gun as carte blanche to booger hook the hell out of the bang switch is askin' for it...

We're the Only Ones Incremental Enough

While testifying in favor of Washington’s HB 2460, the ban of self defense in public parks, retired King County sheriff’s deputy David Hellene says “We look foolish! I’ve got family in Europe, and they can’t understand how this gun violence continues and how we do nothing about it and don’t speak out about it.” He rambles on to say “We change traffic laws incrementally over the last 40 years to prevent DUI deaths, and I think we need to do something incrementally here to prevent these kinds of deaths from happening.” [More]
For some reason, a line from Superman comes to mind...

RU Deeply DistRUbed by This?

Police were able to stumble upon the stockpile after officers conducted an administrative pistol licensee review at Shou’s apartment on Monday, prosecutors said. [More]
So what does that tell us about licensing...?

Much Ado About Nothing

NFL Owners Worried about Gang Culture in Raiders Potential Move to L.A. [More]
Jeez, guys, relax.

You ban guns in stadiums and good luck getting a "may issue" L.A. CCW if you're not one of the connected elites.  Plus, California is tops in the Brady Campaign ratings.

So what's the problem?

We're the Only Ones Up the Down Staircase Enough

The officer, Peter Liang, was patrolling the building with his gun drawn in November 2014 when he fired the fatal shot. He fired his weapon after Gurley and his girlfriend opened a door to the stairwell, a shooting that has been described as accidental by Liang and the police and called reckless by prosecutors. [More]
Naturally, Liberty-Lynchin' Patrick is outraged.

We're the Only Ones Cutting Off Enough

Former Paradise police officer Patrick Feaster was arraigned Wednesday in Butte County Superior Court on a charge of manslaughter, more than two months after he shot an unarmed man suspected of drunken driving. [More]
I think you've had enough, buddy.

We're the Only Ones Elementary Enough

Ivan Cotto is charged with criminal sexual assault for engaging in sexual acts with the victim on five different occasions between May 2015 and January 2016. The Cook County State’s attorney’s office indicates two of the assaults took place at Brentano Elementary Math and Science Academy, where the 29-year-old Cotto worked. [More]
I never did get an answer to my dating etiquette question.

Must Not Have Gotten the Message

I guess Rashawn here has missed out on all that #blacklivesmatter hoop-de-doo. [More]

Can you imagine the uproar if...

No need to say another word.

Creating Demand

Anti-Gun Lawmaker Once Lobbied To Protect CHILD RAPISTS & Wants VIOLENT CRIMINALS Released Early [More]
See, the more chaotic, uncertain and dangerous things become, the more desperate the sheep become for someone to do something.

We're the Only Ones Guarded Enough

Arrests were being made across the state Thursday morning as about four dozen current and former state prison guards were told they face drug and bribery charges. [More]
So that's how a "progressive"society with total government control works!

'Progressive' Communications Theory

Robert Grow, who organized the protest on behalf of the Summit County Progressive Democrats, had warned protesters not to engage with gun enthusiasts who might approach. [More]
Yeah, can't have any easily-refuted lies debunked.

So much for that "national conversation on guns" the liars keep demanding -- as long as it's one way, where they're the only ones who get to transmit and they've turned off their receiver.

Then again, what can you say to a fanatic who insists "The concealed carrying of weapons is nothing but vigilantism and the open carrying of weapons is nothing but the legalized version of a threat to do harm"?

All I can think of is two words, and the first one starts with an "f."

An UndeniableTruth

The machete attacker was stopped with a gun. [More]

Just not with a gun used by one of his victims, the actual "first responders."

I enlarged the photo of the restaurant and could not see a "No Guns" sign.

UPDATE: Anyone surprised?

Hell Hath No Fury

...like a woman scorned. [More]

I'm waiting for the day when Hillary is no longer a viable vehicle for Huma to ride to the top.

Throwing His Hat in the Ring

[More]
Who?

This guy:

Looks like the incumbent is a real piece of anti-gun "progressive" ... work.
