Perfect Timing
CNN Guest Goes Nuts, Blames GOP for Breakdown in Civility, Implies They Support Violence [More]Realizing after her I was "merely mocking" non mea culpa didn't work, like a coward Griffin deleted related tweets, taking all the responses telling her how full of sh!+ people think she is.
And now she's recorded an excuse-making "apology," desperately hoping that will make it all better.
Forgive and forget, right? Just like the "tolerant" left?
What is it about them and decapitated Republican presidents?
Here's the thing-- the contempt isn't just for the man-- it's for everyone who shares core values with the man. In this case, it is for millions of Americans in all those "red" areas who gave Trump an electoral victory because they were counting him doing what he promised in the campaign.
If you're one of them, that decapitation was meant for you.
We know for a fact corporate advertisers are gutless. I wonder how many will be willing to stand up to double standard accusations if they don't drop sponsorship/hosting of Griffin for everything she does in the foreseeable future?

With RINOs Like These...
A bill I drafted about the sale or transfer of firearms has received a great deal of attention. [More]Not so much the bill as you being an enemy inside the gates. And it looks like those replying are on to you.
I suggest letting @PAGOP know that any further support they provide Santora will be seen as aid and comfort.
There's a surplus of Republicans in the PA House, so tossing one seat if this lump runs again won't hurt them one bit-- meaning if you're a District 163 gun owner and you still help him stay in power, your disarmament is on you. And under no circumstances should he be considered acceptable for higher office.
The People Have Spoken
It's just that the politicians aren't going to listen unless there's an "or else" attached to things. [More]
I can't wait for the next jihadi-initiated slaughter so I can learn what a racist I am for harboring doubts and concerns I'd like to see alleviated before "we" proceeed any further.
Mirren Gidda, 'Authorized Journalist'
A member of the Oath Keepers militia ... members of Oath Keepers and the Three Percenters—which the Anti-Defamation League describes as “anti-government extremist movement[s]”... [More]I don't suppose it would do any good repeating what should be common knowledge to any "real reporter" interested in doing two minutes worth of actual seeing for themselves instead of just parroting leftist smears...
Nah. Consider the source.
If Newsweek were interested in the truth, they'd have been in the running for a shot at reporting it.
Not 'If' But 'When'
“This will happen at some point. Plate tectonics isn’t turning off,” Jones says. “When it happens, we’re not going to have water. It’s going to take six months to get water back in all of our houses. We could lose electricity for the whole western U.S. We’re going to have no transportation. City-wide fires have the potential to burn down the city.” [More]Enjoy all those "sanctuary" refugees when it does happen.
What? You're planning on the rest of us taking you all in?
If the resources are limited to where choices will need to be made, who should get priority?
Montana Gun Owners Dodge Bullet with Gianforte’s Defeat of Quist
Quist made fair a question that’s been asked before: Can there really be such a thing as a “pro-gun Democrat”? [More]How can you truly be "pro-gun" if you then turn around and support the likes of Obama and Hillary?
Unquestionably
While the “mainstream media” and the rest of the usual suspects continue to demonize individual gun owners and the NRA, you don’t have to be a rabid hoplophobe to question the NRA. [More]But if you do, prepare for blowback.
Star Wars
'Space Aggressors' Train US Forces for Extraterrestrial Conflict [More]If "they" have interstellar technology, resistance probably would be futile, and instead of a war, it would be an effortless wipeout. Sorry to sound defeatist for a change, but imagine the D-Day invasion against ancient Rome, or the conflict probably being even more one-sided.
I think it was Arthur C. Clarke who postulated on the mathematical improbability of interstellar war. It went something like imagine two side-by-side stacks of postage stamps 500 feet high, representing the beginning of life on the bottom stamp and the present day on the top, and everything in between representing gradual levels of advancement.
The only possible even-sided conflict would be assuming technological development started and advanced simultaneously in both stacks and that the antagonists meet when both are at the identical level -- a stamp above or below would be the difference between a Civil War army fighting a World War I army. Two stamps difference could be the latter vs. King George's Redcoats. You start getting three, four or five layers of difference and the technological advantage only widens.
Imagine intelligent beings with star drive hundreds of years ahead of us. Or a thousand. Or a million.
The odds against an even match are astronomical. A more likely outcome would be ants vs. you with a can of Raid.
Prediction: If we ever do avoid killing ourselves off and reaching for the stars, as would have the "space invaders," we will have developed beyond the current popular notion of doing so through a Star Trek-style "space UN." That -- and motivation via coercion -- will seem as antiquated and unrealistic as "A Trip to the Moon."
Note how technology seems to advance more quickly in an environment of more relative freedom. Me, I'd rather continue the climb from where I am than from starting at the bottom again.

Coming Soon to a Caliphate Near You
Report: 23,000 jihadis living in Britain [More]You're not a jihadiphobe, are you?
Good thing none of this has anything at all to do with that "single issue."
Truth Bending
NRA TV says the Manchester bombing happened because of “gender bending” and gun control [More]No, that's not what they said.
But that Salon would make one aspect of a wider argument (and a true one) appear to be the central premise should not surprise anyone.
And as for the "artist" my friend Laocoön calls Areola Grande, it figures "progressives" would approve of an overprivileged "celebrity" who asserts "I hate America" while licking and spitting on donuts intended for sale to the public in a shop owned by people working their asses off.
Who doesn't Areola hate?
The people who kill her fans, apparently.
Just ask her fellow pop diva, Katy. You know, the one all for you being defenseless who employs a "hot" bodyguard.

The Third Way
None of this is subtle, but Quist’s break with the Democratic Party platform hasn’t produced a peep from the activist left; the gun issue wasn’t even raised before MoveOn.org decided to endorse him. Are progressives knowingly practicing hard-headed electoral pragmatism? Or, as is more likely, are they ducking a divisive and frustrating issue for as long as possible, until another horrific mass shooting produces a fresh wave of outrage? [More]No, they're just being their usual devoid of principle lying sacks, saying and doing anything for political power.

Plastic Fantastic
Models from the world's first agency for 'modified humans' have spent $3 MILLION between them on surgery to look like characters such as a Ken doll, Britney Spears and an ALIEN [More]Based on the pictures, I'd want my money back.
I guess it ain't right to judge pursuit of happiness, but jeez. Why does the death of the West come to mind?
I once had work done by a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon.
I was horsing around/wrestling with elder feral son Uday when he was about 10 or so, and decided he'd earned a tickle. Big mistake. The foot lashed out to my nose as a reflex and it sounded like chicken bones splintering -- the wife heard it clear on the other side of the house and came running.
She was crying, he was crying, everybody was crying but me, because I was busy holding him and consoling him and letting him know that it wasn't his fault and I wasn't mad at him.
Bottom line, the Beverly Hills guy is who the insurance sent me to for repair work. It was funny walking around in public with the bandages on and both eyes bruised black and green from internal bleeding -- funny because I got some looks that registered disapproval based on the presumption that I was someone who gets into fights, and the further presumption that I lose them.
At least that's what I presumed.
I was standing in front of the mirror inspecting the damage, concerned because the dressing under my nose pushed it up like a pug, and I was afraid I wouldn't recognize myself when the bandages came off.
"He better not have made me look like Meg Ryan!" I complained, and it took a second to understand why the wife thought that was funny.

There are all kinds of legitimate reasons for being Publius, as opposed to just being a demonstrable pussy.
We're the Only Ones Impressive Enough
Police arrested an off-duty city correction officer who pulled out his gun in a Hell’s Kitchen restaurant to impress two women — then accidentally shot himself in the finger and one of his companions in her right foot, officials said Wednesday. [More]Lord Vader would like to weigh in:
Bang! Bang! Eric's Silver Bike Lock Came Down Upon His Head
Since his arrest last Wednesday, Clanton has been sitting in an Oakland jail pending a $200,000 bail. According to East Bay Times, the courtroom was packed with members of the press and protesters, some of whom cried for his release. [More]
Rose and Valerie, screaming from the gallery,
say he must go free
(Eric must go free)
The judge does not agree and he tells them so, o, o, o...
I'm sure if someone had the musical talents and the time they could come up with a pretty decent parody.
Seems Appropriate
A Portland, Ore. burrito shop shuttered a week after being featured in an article, amid accusations of cultural appropriation. [More]Take that argument to its logical conclusion and both sides of the transaction ought to be shut down.
