Novel Arizona Bill Can Help Thwart Bloomberg’s Assault on Rights

"The passage of HB 2524 would establish an interstate compact that restricts member states from enacting firearms transfer requirements greater than existing federal law. In essence, this would create a ceiling that state law could not exceed." [More]
Any chair in a bar fight, and I know right where I'd like to plant this one...

We're the Only Ones Rightful Enough

Bill Debated On Police Rights To See Gun Permits [More]
Just swirl that one around in your head for a second or two.

Thanks for Nothing

Thanks To The Gun Lobby, In Some States It’s Easier To Carry A Handgun Than A Taser [More]
You're right, Eric Markowitz, that is outrageous! The choice to carry either ought to be uninfringed in ALL states.

But that's not what you meant, is it?

Credit Where Due

HUGE NRA VICTORY! [More]

What? They didn't do it alone?

Imagine that.

Besides, what do you think this is? A Shake 'N Bake commercial?

Plus, I still have a concern...

Slashing Crime in the Big Apple

Mayor Bill de Blasio tried to put a positive spin on the 20-plus knife and razor attacks that have wracked New York City since last November—suggesting that people are turning to cutting weapons because the NYPD has been so successful confiscating their guns. [More]
Yeah, well...

Besides, what the hell, if someone was going to slash your face, wouldn't you at least like the chance to discourage him?

Not that Bürgermeister Bill needs worry about that... why, he's got bodyguards to spare!

Shoring Up the Platform

Ensuring this language is included in the Republican Party of Nevada’s Party Platform will be an important, critical test in our efforts to fight the anti-gun, anti-liberty, anti-safety Bloomberg ballot initiative this November. [More]
Were I a Nevada voter, I'd be contacting some people to convey my expectations.

I Love My White Male Privilege

I love being constantly called a racist, a sexist, and being collectively blamed for the slave trade! [Watch]
And I love being attacked by gun-grabbers for being white!

And Now for Something Completely Different

In an alternate universe, Davy Crocket survived the 1836 siege at the Alamo, and Santa Ana did not. This changed history for all of North America: Texas remained an independent republic; Mexico fell under rule of the French and did not regain her independence.[More]
Looks fun.

I've always enjoyed alternative histories, starting from when I was a kid and I read "If the South had Won the Civil War."  More recently, I got into "The Man in the High Castle."

Anyway, the "More" link lets you preview the first few pages, and if you like what you see, do what it takes to see more.

Let's Review the Bidding

A hive insect queen intends to order owners of "in common use at the time" militia-suitable magazines to "Turn 'em all in, Mr. and Mrs. California." (Interesting, this Opposite Day egalitarian-against-power-sharing has got an exemption for "sworn" officers. I guess we're not supposed to pay attention to what they're swearing to.[More]

Petition to the rescue!  Oh, and send money. Thing is, it will go to the same people who have made California tops in Brady ratings. The majority is supposed to be scared when they know their seats are only becoming more secure?

And the other thing is, the head of the group behind the petition is out there using his influence to stump for Grover Norquist, whose amnesty/pathway to citizenship actions will politically turn the rest of the country into one big "Golden State."

No?

If you think not, maybe you're the one who can produce that "credible data" none of the other apologists have been able to come up with so far.

Behold, a God Who Bleeds

Trump softens H1B-visa policy during GOP debate [More]
Any other choices...?

Bueller...?

This is the establishment alternative?

Enablers in Denial for'Gun Control'

Look, lady, I feel bad for you, and I know you're desperate and at your wit's end, and don't know what else to do, and he's your baby and all, but imposing that on the rest of us under force of state arms isn't going to have any effect except the "progressive" Opposite Day one... [More]

We Have a Winner!

[More]

If only there was some sort of law besides Natural...

UPDATE: Not so fast -- we have a challenge.

Celebrities for Totalitarianism

[More]

Don't believe the revisionist lie that it wasn't.

When has a government ever had the kind of power these lottery-winning idiot stage props want to give it where it hasn't been abused, and resulted in the nightmare suffering of millions?

We're the Only Ones Framing Enough

The cop told the friend about the knife and said he was getting it framed to put on his wall. He wanted his friend to get the DR (Departmental Record) number for the Nicole Brown Simpson/Ronald Goldman murder case, which he planned on engraving in the frame. [More]
What, there aren't any souvenirs from your job you'd like to have...?

I remember the night of the Bronco chase  -- we had to put off a trip to the mountains for several hours as that was the route we needed to take to get out of L.A.  When we were finally able to get through, we could see helicopters over the house from the freeway.
