We're the Only Ones Hazy Enough

A Las Vegas-based FBI special agent, in town on an undisclosed investigation, felt intense paranoia before he drew a gun at a fitness center then shot at a responding Grand Rapids police sergeant ... The agent, Ruben Hernandez, 35, has only a "vague, hazy" recollection of the possibly alcohol-fueled events early Tuesday ... [More]
This is an update giving more details on an earlier post.

Now that I see the reasons, I  can sympathize and understand. I hate it whenever I do this, don't you?

We're the Only Ones Illuminating Enough

I was looking for something else and came across this open letter from 14+ years ago that I wrote to an idiot Police Chief whose position was you don't need guns and in case of home invasion, just turn on the lights. [More]

How many of you can afford to retire at 55? That should be illuminating all by its own self.

No One's Talking About Taking Your Guns

Except former NSA director Michael Hayden...? [Watch]

This freak epitomizes the phrase "banality of evil."


Thank You for the Backup

Where was “Sandy Hook” mentioned in the article? The only time that phrase is mentioned is as part of the name of a specific group (Sandy Hook Promise) that produced/plagiarised a propaganda video promoting attacks on firearms rights using deadly government force. [More]
My point exactly.

I appreciate when readers help keep things real.

Meet the New Chair

NOT the same as the old chair? [More]

I dunno -- they both have "As" from GOA, and Jordan is actually half a point higher ("A" compared to "A-") from Numbers USA...

I hope we do see more action from the Freedom Caucus. But I'll need more than rah-rah testimonials using phrases like "rock-ribbed conservative."

Very pretty, Colonel, Very pretty. But, can they fight?

How about we see an agenda and a milestone schedule, something that lets us in on what the plan is and then lets us measure how they're doing with it?  You know, project management tools like they use in business to define goals and track progress?

Why Couldn't the Troublemaker Just Roll Over?

Some who heard about this win, pooh-poohed it saying that Ken should have just supplied his photo ID as requested. To them I say that if you and I have to follow the law, so must the government. PERIOD. [More]
Those counseling preemptive surrender and appeasement will never be relevant to freedom. Defeatists in the trenches do the work of the enemy.

I'll go a step further: Government isn't just tasked to follow the law, it's tasked to enforce it. In a rational world, anyone attempting to impose infringements would be stopped and brought to trial.

Our Diversity is Our Strength

Diversity of tactics is a step beyond that. It’s code for a protest group that is willing to intentionally cross the line of non-violence. [More]
OK, just so long as if things get out of hand, those of us who aren't neo-Bolsheviks maintain a diversity of response capabilities...

You'd think people who presume to represent the views of "the vast majority of people in the United States" would have more than 732 Facebook followers. Then again, that's not who they speak for, "comrades":
Our allegiance is not to “making America great again,” but to all of humanity and the planet. 
Ah, so the manipulators behind this are pushing the agenda of the One Percenter globalists!  Not that the useful S.W.I.N.E. idiots they're putting out there as front line fodder will ever be informed or rational enough to realize what dopes and dupes they are.

I maintain that moneyed interests behind calls for such disruptions are putting themselves in a "knew or should have known" liability situation. Anyone suffering property loss or injury ought to follow the trail and then go after the "enablers."

Lost in Translation

“Common-sense regulation” Translation: “Universal confiscation of privately-owned guns” [More]
For "progressives," every day is Opposite Day.

And There was War in Heaven

"Progressives" are gearing up for civil war over Keith Ellison. [More]

Gosh, ADL characterizations can't be trusted? Who knew?

Me, I'm like "Go Keith!"  But more infighting, please.

Insult to Islam!

So much for the often-parroted lie that no one is talking about doing that.
