GOA Urges Supporters to ‘Stop Schumer’s Gun Control’

"For roughly 25 years, the ‘Schumer amendment’ to the Commerce-Justice-Science Appropriations Bill has prohibited any federal funds from being used to restore anyone’s constitutional rights,” GOA explains. “So for much of this time, if a person were a veteran with PTSD, they’re out of luck. If they had a conviction for a federal regulatory offense — fifty years ago — they’re out of luck. They will NEVER get their guns back, thanks to Democrat Chuck Schumer.” [More]
With "Republicans" in control now, what's their excuse for not fixing it going to be this time?

Strange Bedfellows

Among many other things this bill does, it nearly quintuples the length of time the State Police can deny you a firearms transfer with no cause. It also drastically complicates the process for getting a concealed handgun license. Online classes will be prohibited unless the class is provided by the NRA or an “Oregon law enforcement agency or association." [More]
I wonder how that "monopoly" got written into it...?

A Sense of Wonder

Five Capitol Hill technology aides told The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group that members of Congress have displayed an inexplicable and intense loyalty towards the suspects who police say victimized them. The baffled aides wonder if the suspects are blackmailing representatives based on the contents of their emails and files, to which they had full access. [More]

Truth or Fiction?

Kim Dotcom: 'I Knew Seth Rich. I Know He Was the Wikileaks Source' [More]
Not to worry though. WaPo assures us this is all "fake news." And we know from experience what standard bearers for the unvarnished truth they've been.

That must explain the establishment media blackout on this story.

Mustn't it?

What Could Justify Such Fear?

Lois G. Lerner and Holly Paz, two key figures in the IRS‘ tea party-targeting, can keep testimony about their role in the targeting secret, at least for now, a federal judge ruled Thursday. The two women had said they feared death threats and other harassment if their depositions in a class action lawsuit against the IRS became public. [More]
Other than knowledge of guilt?

Not to Alarm You

Not to alarm you, but I probably want you to quit your job, or at least take a demotion. Statistically speaking, you are probably taking up room that should go to someone else. If you are a white cis man (meaning you identify as male and you were assigned male at birth) you almost certainly should resign from your position of power. [More]
You don't alarm me one bit. And I even understand those who find you useful want more than just my job.

Not to alarm you, but if and when it gets to that, the enablers will be remembered. And who you need to worry about then might surprise you.

It figures an Opposite Day "progressive" mathematician wouldn't know how to add things up.

Actually, more like evening and morning.

I'll control my guns, thank you.

You control your dogs.

We ought to get along just fine.

An Inconvenient Truth



Good. One area to beef up in future lectures: It briefly referenced "Black Codes," but did not elaborate on their significance.

And if you've ever pointed these truths out before, you've seen the lying apologists hit back with the wholly unsubstantiated claim that the parties have since reversed polarity.  Translation: If you oppose commuunist theft and redistibution of wealth, you're a racist.

Funny. You have to get to the bottom of the article until you see any reference to "recent terror attacks" and there's absolutely nothing to let readers know anything about the perps or their motives, despite a Europe-wide "major search operation"...


More Bang for the Buckhorn


I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.
At a time when journalists are under fire both literally and figuratively, Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn’s “joke” this week at a military conference about pointing twin 50 caliber machine guns at journalists and watching them “cry like little girls” rankled several reporters in the room. [More]
That would be Hillary supporter Bob Buckhorn. You know, the guy who will "stand with [Muslims] forever"...? A.K.A. "Buy-Back" Bob...?

Hey, what happened to "common sense" gun safety and Cooper's rule to "NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY"...?

Need you ask?
In Tampa, Mayor Bob Buckhorn said he "fully" supports President Barack Obama's proposals to pass a new ban on assault weapons, limit ammunition magazines to 10 rounds, require background checks for virtually all gun sales and further limit armor-piercing bullets.
Dammit, Bob, you're not supposed to show your cards to the useful idiots this early in the game.

Doodling with Google



If you do a Google search today, you'll see this "Google Doodle." It commemorates Native American "activist" Richard Oakes with the tribute:
Here's to Richard Oakes, for his unwavering dedication to his community and social justice.
His Wikipedia entry was obviously written by an apologist and admirer, no surprise to those who have long questioned that site's lack of objectivity and leftist bent.

Curious though, both Wikipedia and Google celebrate his leadership in the illegal seizure of Alcatraz.  Compare that to how "progressives" characterize those involved in the Malheur takeover.  I also see nothing in either account about how Oakes and followers "set up an armed toll stop for motorists driving through the Kashia reservation."

I wonder if Mountain View-based Google would support a similar "unwavering dedication to the community and social justice" endeavor by the Ohlone.
