The B.A.T.F-U Behave Yourself Act
It looks like the multiple long gun registration requirement and letting guns walk are under consideration for discontinuance if the money spigot is to be left on. [More]
Before we get too excited at their being told to infringe less and stop breaking the damn law, just remember that committee votes do not a finished product make.

They have no excuse not to vote for the same bill again. [More]Yeah, but last time they didn't think it actually had a chance of going anywhere...
Besides, if it's a choice between revealing their inner Quislings or having those embarrassing Dolly the Love Ewe photos made public... well, exploiting the "lesser of two evils" fears has generally worked before...

Speaking of Audits...
Audit the Pentagon... [More]Sure, OK, good idea. And while you're at it, audit the Fed.
But there's one more audit you and your cheap labor pals and your political allies have been avoiding, Grover, one that is within your means to perform and one that involves higher ultimate costs.
Audit all credible polls against real world experience in places like California, and then produce credible data – not opinion, not anecdotes, not isolated examples, but something that can be independently validated – demonstrating that “amnesty” and a “pathway to citizenship” for MILLIONS of foreign nationals in this country illegally (and legally, with CURRENT culturally suicidal policies) WILL NOT overwhelmingly favor Democrats and anti-gunners. Show us your sources and methodologies for determining this WILL NOT result in supermajorities in state and federal legislatures that will then be able to pass all kinds of anti-gun edicts.
Show us how this WILL NOT result in nominations and confirmations of judges to the Supreme and federal courts who will uphold those edicts and reverse gains made to date.
If you can't, put on your NRA director hat and explain why a politician's position on an issue that has the potential to eviscerate "legal" recognition of the Second Amendment should not be refelected in grades and endorsements.
Something beyond the fraudulent "single issue" deflection, please...

Gridlock
"I think that California's gun-control laws have finally become so complicated that we're now in probably a two- to three-year period of the state trying to figure out how to clean up the mess it made and make the laws enforceable," he said. "These delays are really just a symptom of how insanely overbroad and complicated the system has become." [More]And when people don't know what the "law" is, that has a wide deterring effect all by its own self.
Made possible by what the "gun lobby" groups deliberately ignore for reasons they refuse to address beyond an indefensibly lame "single issue" excuse...

State Investigator Concluded Bloomberg Mayor Ed Murray Sexually Abused Foster Son
“The investigation by Oregon Child Protective Services (CPS) of Jeff Simpson’s allegations determined them to be valid — meaning the agency believed Murray sexually abused Simpson, the records show.”[More]It's curious how so many who who can't -- or more likely won't -- control themselves obsess over controlling everybody in Everytown...
