There’s No Excuse for Paper to Host Demonstrable Falsehood on ‘Automatic Rifles’

Waldrop is conflating “automatic rifles” with semiautomatic firearms, and that’s been a move straight out of the gun-grabber playbook since the Violence Policy Center’s Josh Sugarmann explained the tactical deception back in 1988...[More]
Why don't they know it's a lie? Or do they, and they're counting on the readers not knowing?

Let Them Eat Cake

"That's what you have security for," she says dismissively. [More]
And Kim Kardashian has plenty.

The sisters at least sound receptive.

I'd like to say it amazes me that she gets gushing agreement from admirers who are too stupid to realize she's essentially telling them their lives aren't worth protecting, but then again, for anyone empty enough to be a "fan," nothing surprises me.

Besides, considering the numbers, losing a handful won't affect her bottom line (does she have any other kind?) one bit.

Disregard? For Now?

HPD will not enforce order requiring marijuana card holders to turn in guns [More]
We just talked about this here.

Question: Can those subject to the seizures take the "will not be enforced and should be disregarded" assertion as sound legal advice, or if police are dispatched to their residences on other matters will the records be matched to obtain a warrant?

A Little Horse Trading

House committee approves NRA-backed concealed carry bill ... The members also approved a less controversial bill 17-6 to boost authorities' compliance with the federal background check system. [More]
Out of committee does not a victory make, and we can see something not all of us consider "less controversial" had to be offered up to move things this far. Everybody may want to tone down on the jubiliation and figure out what's going to need to happen next to up the odds:

While the remaining members of the group sat on the curb, one teen can be heard in the video recording asking why he’s being detained ... That’s when the officer responds with “Because you’re white,” and walks away. [More]
Nice to see he now has regrets. Any bets on it being because he was caught and can't deny the recording?

And of course he won't be fired.  Now imagine the same scenario with ethnicity reversed.

Up in Smoke

The Honolulu Police Department has told legal marijuana users who own guns that they must turn in their weapons within 30 days. [More]
Nothing less than their birthright is what the cannabis users are trading for a mess of pot when they allow their lives to be ruled by power junkies.

UPDATE:
HPD will not enforce order requiring marijuana card holders to turn in guns
Per George Pace: "They won't require existing card holders to turn in their already registered guns (i.e. ALL guns in Hawaii), but will not issue any future 'permits to acquire' (ALL guns in Hawaii require a 'permit to acquire' prior to acquisition) to anyone holding a medical cannabis card."

Why the NRA Should Support a Constitutional Militia

That is part of our Constitution, and that particular part of our Constitution is totally ignored by those folks who are running our government.[More]
As long as it is, and as long as the "gun lobby" legal arguments focus exclusively on "self-defense," the "weapons of war" argument will continue to be successfully used by the antis at the state level (and beyond once the cultural terraforming becomes overwhelming).

Then again, how many gun owners do you think have thought through what a Constitutional Militia would require of them, especially in terms of discipline and submission to authority?

Assume Morrissey’s Lethal Hatred Extends to Trump Supporters


When some national socialist sympathizer calls for the death of Donald Trump, we need to ask ourselves what it is about the man Morrissey hates so much. The answer is the policies Trump says he stands for. That means Morrissey hates those who agree with those policies. Trump is the symbol for all those who chose the vision of America he articulated over what Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders offered. [More]
And if he could push a button to eradicate such “vermin”? “For the safety of humanity,” right?

How to Self-Destruct

The Washington Post on Monday night published a detailed account of an apparent attempt to deceive Post reporters into believing a made-up story of a woman who says she had an abortion after Roy Moore, who is now the GOP Senate nominee in Alabama, impregnated her when she was 15. The woman was seen walking into the headquarters Monday morning of Project Veritas, a political operation that employs deceptive tactics in attempts to embarrass journalists and expose alleged bias. [More]
O'Keefe essentially just neutered his organization by allowing this ill-conceived, dishonest and clumsy operation to proceed. They've done some good work in the past but this is the one "Aw shit" that will erase all the"attaboys" and make Veritas a target for Alinsky Rule 5 ridicule from now on.

Another 'Pro-Gun Democrat'


In case you've seen some stories about Trump's CFPB appointment being messily contested, this offers some good insights into what's going on and why. [More]

Short answer: Cordray is a Democrat. In spite of his having gotten "pro-gun" creds from NRA and Buckeye Firearms, the party will tolerate his wandering from the reservation as long as it enables him to be in an advantageous position to support Democrats and help advance their overall agenda.

I wrote a piece years back that only exists now in the Internet Archive. That in turn linked to other stories where Cordray had played on the gun-grabber side of the street.

"The first time I was hospitalized for acting on suicidal ideation" suggests there have been others, and the admission "I take medication to help. But I've only been taking it for about 10 years" makes me wonder if question 11.f. resulted in complete candor and a rational decision to proceed with a transfer.

And "Dad," who knew his history, didn't find it strange?

I can imagine this being a posthumous article titled "I bought a gun to kill myself and did, thanks to lax gun laws." And I can imagine the comments from appreciative "progressive" readers being equally congratulatory and supportive.
