In short, not just Garland, but any candidate for a federal judgeship, ought to be expected to disclose answers to fundamental questions... [More]Control the courts and it's "game over" for any (peaceable) resolution outside of turning 'em all in, Mr. and Mrs. America.

Fundamental Court Transformation Removes Choices for Gun Owners except Obey or Not
We're the Only Ones Gripping Enough
Fired sheriff's deputy gets probation for choking coworker [More]So will dismissal of felony charges mean he won't be a "prohibited person"? Because it sounds like this guy can't even be trusted with hands...

She's Got Hers
Amy Schumer Increases Personal Security While Pushing Gun Control for Americans [More]Yeah, it's like that. No one here is surprised, I trust.

And You Can Thank an Establishment Republican
When Obama entered the Oval Office, liberal judges controlled just one of the 13 circuits of the U.S. Court of Appeals. Fifty-five successful presidential nominations later, liberal majorities now control nine of those appeals benches, or 70 percent. [More]And you can thank them again when Hillary completes the job.

We're the Only Ones Unarmed Enough
Notice it didn't say they took his gun, just his badge. [More]
It seems he'd be in a position to know he was in an area that had seen 42 reports of violent crime and 26 robberies in the past 30 days. That doesn't seem like the kind of place for Condition White, especially at night.
That said, we'll never know if resistance truly would have been futile. It sounds like he surrendered that choice beforehand.

Mixed Feelings
You Open Carry Idiots Aren’t Helping [More]I personally don't open carry to make a statement. That said, I've endorsed and appeared at multiple events where open carry has been the norm, and rather than seeing problems have instead seen peaceable conduct that is indeed helpful at negating all the hysterical stereotyping.
Then there's the kind that confirms it.
I'm not a "one size fits all" kind'a guy. The focus ought to be reserved for those who set a dangerous example or otherwise misbehave. In this particular case, it appears a motive was to intimidate someone who had been through the judicial process and was not threatening to use force.

It Depends on What the Meaning of the Word 'Safer' Is
America Is Safer Than It Used to Be. So Why Do We Still Have Calls for ‘Law and Order’? [More]I dunno, but if the Prozis genuinely believe that, why do we still have rabid calls for "gun control"?

One Ring to Bring Them All and in the Darkness Bind Them
ALERT: U.S. CDC Giving Itself Unconstitutional POWERS To Round Up And Detain Citizens En Masse Anytime, Anywhere And Throw Away The Key [More]Here's the proposed rule.
It does make fair the question of what can and should be done, and how to ensure due process. It also makes it fair to ask how such an event would happen that was not traceable back to "government" admissions policies.
Hey, who thinks guns will be allowed?
I'm surprised the "suicide vest" crowd hasn't tried weaponizing "refugees" with biological agents. Maybe they have. Maybe that's next.

We're the Only Ones Interminable Enough
Two Chicago cops face firing decade after off-duty beating captured on video [More]Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

It Depends on What the Meaning of the Term 'Conservative Republican' Is
Mr. Toomey, a conservative Republican in a tough re-election fight in Pennsylvania, has been rewarded with support from unlikely sources: former Representative Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona, a Democrat who was shot in the head in a 2011 assassination attempt and started a political action committee focused on gun control, and Michael R. Bloomberg, a former mayor of New York, who is behind another gun control PAC. [More]Well gosh, if a trusted source for unbiased reporting like "the newspaper of record" calls a gun-grabber "conservative," who am I to argue?
We're the Only Ones Just Kidding Enough
For two weeks in the spring of 2015, the FBI was one of the largest purveyors of child pornography on the internet. [More]At the rate things are going, give it a few years and those opposed to such choices will be condemned as intolerant haters.

Bloomberg Has His Gun-Grabby Hands in Everything
The Nevada Wildlife Commission is proposing to ban certain calibers of center fire rifles for big game hunting at their Commission meeting on Saturday September 24th 2016 without justification. Please review our letter sent to the commission opposing this unnecessary regulation... [More]Per Nevada Firearms Coalition's email alert, "This proposal is being supported by former Metro Sheriff and current wildlife commissioner Bill Young who is also a member of the Everytown in Nevada advisory board and vocal supporter of the anti gun owner ballot initiative one."
Up for Debate?
You can engage in gun-related points/counterpoints here. [More]
Seems like a great way to keep advocates from more effective uses of their time, but that's just me.

Who, What. When, Where, Why and How?
Herschel asks some questions about the nitrocellulose flap. [More]
And I agree: Dismissive, snarky treatment of this was out of line. I notice it did not happen until after ATF had blinked.

The Right Thing to Do
So says our Opposite Day "progressive" Department of Homeland Security.[More]
"Rigorous!"
If we can't trust those people to safeguard our elections, who can we trust?

The Haunted Forest
Here are six stories of people who went into one of America’s 59 national parks — and never returned. [More]Remember when Clinton appointee Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled in favor of the Bradys, presuming authority to deny our right to possess the means of defense until an "environmental impact study" had been performed to say it was OK?
They would literally rather see you dead than armed. Besides, you might miss your maniac attacker and hit a spotted owl.
Funny-- since her ruling was never overturned by a higher court (a Congressional rider on a credit card bill allowed it instead), stare decisis ought to still apply over executive actions in her district. Anybody know if environmental impact studies have been done on the administration bypassing all those lawfully-enacted immigration laws?
Clown Lives Matter
I'm waiting for the first "unarmed" one to get shot. [More]
By one of these guys.
Hilarity will be sure to ensue.

Maybe if they called it a "fee"... [More]
