Venezuelan Gun Destruction Shows Danger of ‘Just Following Orders’ Culture

It should surprise no one that Reverol has been indicted in the U.S. on drug-trafficking charges, or that drug money fuels much of the criminal violence plaguing Venezuela. Nor should it surprise us that socialist President Nicolás Maduro calls a Marxist Spanish professor “the Jesus Christ of economics.”

So is anyone surprised a tyrant, desperate to hold on to power, demands a monopoly of violence?  Or that such an imbalance in power results in a murderous military/police state? [More]

What the hell is a good man -- who built a pond on his own property to the wrath of the feds -- doing being lowered into this pit?

Spoken Like a True Elitist

This is a couple months old, but it's the first time I've seen it.

The day is coming when betrayed citizens will do more than scream and push.

What's the Big Deal?

"Let's give these kids a break. Sometimes you take actions that you later regret," Andrada said. "Lochte is one of the best swimmers of all-time. They had fun, they made a mistake, it's part of life, life goes on, let's go." [More]

So, Mario: Did you know you wanted to be an apologist/enabler early on, or was whoring away any sense of ethics as a flack something that just came with the job?

What must it take to be a "spokesman"?

We're the Only Ones Demilitarized Enough

Maybe U.S. police aren’t militarized enough. [More]

If it's truly about greater accountability for lethal force, that's  move in the right direction.

Anybody see any evidence that's the direction their masters want to take us?

The Better to Smear You with, My Dear

You hate Obama because he's black. You hate Hillary because she's a woman.  [More] 

It has nothing to do with advocating freedom or protesting corruption and tyranny. You're a hater.

"Progressive" pseudo-intellectuals at The Atlantic said it, I believe it, that settles it. Right?

Or they at least find it a useful talking point for mass parroting.

She Just Can't Stop Lying

On last day in office, AG Kathleen Kane says she has 'no regrets' [More]

C'mon, Kathy, aren't you at least sorry you got caught?

What a diseased, reality-denying response.

What is it about criminals wanting to disarm others?

And why is it so many gun-grabbers end up prohibited persons?

Do you really believe other lands can be swallowed up, and you'll forever be snug in your comfortable holes?

Courting Catastrophe

A federal appeals court this week sided with California Attorney General Kamala Harris and declined to rehear a combined case that the Second Amendment protects the right to carry a firearm for self-defense in public ... the groups involved, the Second Amendment Foundation and Calguns Foundation in Richards and the National Rifle Association and California Rifle and Pistol Association in Peruta... [More]

Yet none of the Grover-lovin' groups have even acknowledged (let alone included it in their grading criteria) the one issue that will guarantee Democrat supermajority control, allowing them to enact legislation and appoint judges who will uphold their Intolerable Acts.

None of them will directly and responsively answer my challenge:

Produce credible data – something that can be independently validated – that “amnesty” and a “pathway to citizenship” for MILLIONS of foreign nationals in this country illegally (and even legally, with current culturally suicidal policies) WILL NOT overwhelmingly favor Democrats and anti-gunners.

Because they know they can't. So all we get instead are red herring anecdotes and platitudes.

Can't We All Get Along?

Evidently not:

"We do not want justice or peace anymore. We done with that shit. We want blood. We want blood. We want the same shit ya'll want. Eye for an eye. No more peace. F--k all that. Ain't no more peace. Ain't no more peace. We done. We cannot co-habitate with white people, one of us have to go, black or white. All ya'll have to go!"

Is they white?

Maybe a nurturing feminine touch will help calm things down by adding some warmth.

Now don't go getting nervous or anything...

Hey, is pointing this stuff out racist?

Just keep in mind this is the inevitable result of generations of the "progressive" policies Hillary promises to put on steroids.

With a few exceptions, there seems to be a common thread here. [More]

Thank goodness violent crime, enabled and expanded by unchecked deluge immigration, has nothing to do with that "single issue," or on exploitable demands to "do something."
