This May Just Be Actionable

It would seem that red means a lot more than "Scram!" [More]

See?

What does it mean when a website is blocked and flagged in red as a reported unsafe website?A reported unsafe website has been confirmed by reputable sources as fraudulent or linking to malicious software and has been reported to Microsoft. Microsoft recommends you do not give any information to such websites.

So by putting the red warning up, Microsoft is telling SmartScreen users that"reputable sources" have "confirmed" I am either a fraud and/or am linking to malicious software? Is that what they're calling Facebook alternative Gun District? Is there more to that?

Regardless, I put my personal reputation and my "brand name" into this for those I care about. Lose those and you got nothin'.

I don't care what "progressive" trolls think-- but this is the major influential multi-billion dollar global software behemoth Microsoft we're talking about here, singling out little me (and who knows who else?).  I need to see what my options are here, including whether the identity of the individual doing the initial reporting is discoverable.

All in the Family

Congressman convicted in case that entangled son, wife [More]

Nice editorial "standards"-compliant writing there, Maryclaire Dale of the Associated Press.

"The case entangled."

Kind of like "the gun went off."

And need you ask?

Yep, Fairfax Got to Him

I can't really blame Trump for this -- he doesn't have detail-level visibility of the issue and its nuances and it's pretty natural he would take his lead and his talking points from the big dog. [More]

NRA has been pushing this "gun free zones except for "Only Ones" bullshit forever. This is on gun owner control zealots Wayne and Cox, and it's not just bars, it's schools, too.

This statement came from someone who knows:

And by the way, the NRA undermined us (VCDL) all the way as we tried to get restaurant carry legal again in Virginia.

Until it was take the credit time.

Finally Something We Can Agree On!

Gun control backers are really, really sick of playing nice [More]

Us too.

Why would you leave all that stuff where it can be seen from the outside? [More]

Gamal Get Your Guns

Gamal Abdel-Hafiz, born in Cairo, immigrated to the U.S. in 1990. He recently retired from the FBI after 22 turbulent years at the bureau. Following the Orlando attack, Abdel-Hafiz explained his rationale for creating a national gun registry... [More]

"No" doesn't quite capture the complete spirit. I can think of a two-word answer that starts with "F"...

'Run by the Book'

It's hard to believe anyone would be as careless as this makes the guy out to be. Low-hanging fruit sure does make for useful headlines. [More]

I Drink Your Milkshake!

Estrada said the man complained about the milkshake, then demanded coffee. When he was told there was no coffee, he started yelling, she said. Estrada said the man jumped the counter, chased her towards a small office, then punched her in the face. [More]

I liked the Daniel Day-Lewis version better. And in both cases, the victim should have had more of a say in the outcome. That's where equalizers come in.

It's a campaign. [More]

A Professor of Public Health

“People with no guns don’t kill people.” [More]

So that explains our history of peace.

Not much of an agenda there.

Just Not Far Enough

Yep, the Sixties radicals are taking over. Personally I think they ought to burn a few buildings and throw rocks at police.

Another Way The Elites Block Information They Want to Suppress

[More]

And the hits just keep on coming.

Reported? By whom? Nice to know the hive insects consider what I say a threat.

I wonder if it's possible to successfully challenge this.

UPDATE: I just happened to have one of their tech's attention on another matter, so sent the following. We'll see if it does any good:

We're the Only Ones Expert and Highly Trained Enough

The forensic experts told me that sending civilians to do battle in a mass shooting would be a disaster. Police, who are highly trained and also experts in firearms... [More]

I guess useful idiot Holly here has never heard of the "Only Ones" Files, and where the term came from.

I wonder what she'd say if, without time to look things up, you asked her how often police need to range qualify, what the tests consist of, what the minimum score to pass is and how many re-dos they get. Or if she just regurgitates what her handlers feed her...

Slow It Down Please?

Thank you for all the news tips. I do appreciate them.

Now I get to show you my big "but."

There's only one of me and I have plenty I'm working on. I'm just not going to be able to get to most of them.

Slow 'em down a bit, please? Or at least don't peg me a rude jerk for not using them and emailing back acknowledgment.

Consider the wisdom of V.I.N.CENT before judging me too harshly.  And Kelly.

All You Need is Love

It's how to respond to terror: Loretta said it, I believe it, that settles it. [More]

Hit it, Fab Four!

Just continue to import jihadis, pass disarmament edicts and hate gun owners, and we'll all be ... well here, let Merle tall you:

Doing What Republicans Do

Now I can feel which way the wind is blowing!

Senate Republicans are expected to bring a bipartisan gun control bill to a vote this week despite opposition to the measure from the National Rifle Association and other conservative groups. [More]

Well, the NRA doesn't have completely clean hands in this.

A lot of these poltroons need to be Cantored.

Message to the GOP:

WE WON’T STAND FOR SCAPEGOATING

NO NEW GUN LAWS

DENY SUCCESS TO MASS MURDERERS BY ABOLISHING PHONY ‘GUN-FREE’ VICTIM / KILLER-ENABLING ZONES NOW

WORK WITH US OR WE WILL WORK TO RETIRE YOU

It would help if they heard that from more than a couple of us.

And as for retiring them, I may just have the perfect trust-betraying candidate:

• The Tea Party trusted Kelly Ayotte, and she immediately moved left.
• NRA went to bat for her and now she's using that bat on us.
• This is what Opposite Day "progressives" mean by "trust."
• Naturally, she's part of the cultural terraforming cadre as well.

So what if her Democrat opponent is worse? Cutting cancer out hurts, but the alternative is death.

If gun owners continue to reward enemies inside the gate because of that cowardly excuse, the betrayals will continue. Make a high profile example out of one and those who fear they will be targeted next will fall into line out of survival instinct if not principle.

If the GOPoltroons don't like it they should run better candidates.  And by the way, never donate directly to the RNC  -- they'll spread it out to include giving aid and comfort to enemies like Ayotte, Collins, Kirk...

And also remember, there's a lot of posturing going on right now. There's still the House.  And after that, and after whatever court cases result, there's still the fact that some of us will not comply with whatever Intolerable Acts these parasites try to impose.

Meanwhile, Over in the City of Brotherly Love

"Don't mess with us, we belong to ISIS." [More]

And they say that while they're assaulting patrons? Sounds like as good a reason for one of the victims to open fire as any.

How else will we ever see pictures of them as angel-faced waifs who were just starting to turn their lives around?

Guess that cop shield sign wasn't too much of a deterrent.

It's the Grassroots, Stupid

That's what you can say to the next anti who thinks it's all about campaign funding bribes. [More]

A Viable Alternative?

With Facebook applying snitch-based censorship to human life defense advocacy, I've been looking for alternative ways to bypass the media gatekeepers and spread the word on stuff you'll never see them honestly cover, let alone mention most of the time.

I just joined Gun District.  I'd like to see every gun rights advocate with a Facebook account do the same.

UPDATE: I just checked out my profile link on another computer-- looks like you need to join to see member pages?  Anybody know?

The main Gun District page is here.

A Hillary Supporter

Orlando Terrorist Supported Hillary Clinton to Stop Donald Trump [More]

Jeez, if she had a good reason for wanting us disarmed, why didn't she just say so? No more guns for me!

Say, I just had an idea as I was prepping one of my crude Fauxtoshops for this post: Encourage others to come up with Hillary campaign posters highlighting this creature's approval for her policies. Feel free to send me yours if you'd like to see it here.

In any event, it'd be fun to see others inject their own "campaign posters" on this theme all over the place...

I keep coming back to Julia. I also wonder how many follow that link when I do, and read the whole thing through.
