A Rhetorical Question
By Popular Demand
July 2017 NICS Continue on Path to Second Highest Year Ever for Gun Sales [More]Yes, but most gun owners want more "commonsense safety laws," say the folks who can scarcely draw a few dozen people to a protest even when they provide the buses and lunch...
Cut to the Chase
"The Chase" comes from Episode 10 of Season 6. Targeting a home in broad daylight and armed with a rifle, home invaders hold up a young couple, demanding their wallet and purse. The homeowner decides to pursue the thieves. [More]That oughtta provide for some interesting discussion...
We're the Only Ones Armed Enough
When the two vehicles stopped, the suspect got out of his car armed with a tire jack, Fortner said. The deputy then fired a pistol at him, hitting him once, Fortner said. [More]But what would happen to everybody else?

O Say Can You See?
A monument to Francis Scott Key, the author of the Star Spangled Banner, was vandalized in Baltimore this week. Vandals spray painted words including “racist anthem” on the statue. [More]And Jefferson does not escape the wrath.
Everybody sees what's going on, right?

Always Think Forfeiture?
"I'm sick of hearing about your rights," the agent said, according to Serrano's lawsuit. "You have no rights here." [More]If he has none then neither does his persecutor.
This is the undisguised tyranny you are making inevitable, AG Sessions.
If I may paraphrase Mr. Kennedy, making peaceful resolution this difficult to obtain -- impossible for any without the wherewithal -- makes violent revolution inevitable. And justified.

Ignorance is Strength
Then Clinton draws the exact wrong message from Orwell's classic. "The goal is to make you question logic and reason and to sow mistrust toward exactly the people we need to rely on: our leaders, the press, experts who seek to guide public policy based on evidence, ourselves," she bizarrely added. [More]For "progressives," every day is Opposite Day.

Hallelujah !
“The passage was selected to correspond with the school’s overall music curriculum that, for that particular week, featured the musical works of George Handel,” the school spokesperson told me. [More]Funny, how these "atheist" groups seem kind of selective in deciding what "offends" them...

We're the Only Ones Tabling the Matter Enough
In one instance, authorities allege Papagni, Catota, and others held one victim down on the table, while Perez was grinding his genitals up and down the victim's body. In another, authorities said the three men held a second victim down on the table while rubbing up and down against his leg. [More]Nice to see "progressive" hires enjoying all the same benefits.
[Via Jess]
We're the Only Ones Penetrating Enough
Burford admitted that he had intercourse with the victim, but that the sexual acts were consensual. However, he said he never received verbal permission from the victim, according to the affidavit. [More]Sign here, and initial here, here and here...
And then there's this expected bit of distancing:
“The allegations against Mr. Buford in no way reflect the values of the NOPD.”Yeah, it doesn't seem their style...

We're the Only Ones Arming Enough
Police arrest 2 in SF killing and reveal gun had been stolen from cop [More]See? You need us just to help clean up after ourselves.
[Via Rough and Ready]
We're the Only Ones Disarming Enough
“We do not want what happened in Charlottesville to happen in Richmond,” said Richmond Police Chief Alfred Durham in a letter distributed to residents this week. [More]What, you mean you guys funneling the groups together and then standing down?
[Via Matt F]
UPDATE: They backed down.
No Limits
On the off chance that some particularly risible amnesty application is denied by a stodgy rules-follower in our immigration bureaucracy, that denial will be litigated before a federal judge in Hawaii, then appealed to the 9th Circuit. [More]#CantorRyan !
Public May Never Know if Gun-Grabber Ed Murray is really a Boy-Grabber, Too
Prosecutors never pursued allegations and now it’s too late. Washington state statute of limitations laws mean Murray will not be criminally charged, at least over the accusations that have surfaced to date. [More]Nor will he ever be charged for his rape of the Constitution.
Super Illegal Alien
What's the Opposite Day "progressive" counterpart to "Truth, justice and the American way"?
It's hardly surprising. After all, Superman is an illegal alien himself, a refugee whose adopters lied about his origins and continued masking his real identity so his invented persona could fraudulently claim American citizenship -- which the Cultural Marxist writers had him renounce a few years back.
Could the manipulation be more transparent? And, of course, rival Marvel is every bit as in-your-face with it. Figures.
Still, I wonder how activist of color, say, Black Lives Matter and the like, feel about white liberals using the white language construct so that "blackness" of "soul" is being promoted as contemptible? It's a cinch that it was the white establishment that introduced and has since perpetuated the connotation of "black" with "...black with rage ... dirty, soiled ... thoroughly sinister or evil ... wicked ... a black deed ... indicative of condemnation or discredit got a black mark for being late...connected with or invoking the supernatural and especially the devil black magic the black arts ... very sad, gloomy, or calamitous black despair ... marked by the occurrence of disaster black Friday ... characterized by hostility or angry discontent ... sullen black resentment filled his heart..."
Are they going to let DC get away with perpetuating this racist stereotype? And tangentially related, why won't DC let black social justice champion Alcee Hastings use the Superman symbol anymore?
VLLA SELLA!
And the Betrayal Continues
Paul Ryan: ‘Not in our nation’s interest’ to kick out Dreamers [More]Paul Ryan: ‘Not in our interest’ to kick out Dreamers -- There, fixed it for ya.
It seems this guy is on a political suicide course, but he'll probably be reelected because enough of the herd can be manipulated with Democratphobia, even though ultimately that's the agenda he's pushing through. Or sure, he votes "our way" when it's safe and there's really no other choice, enough to getr that "staunch supporter of the Second Amendment" nod from Fairfax, which conveniently hides behind that "single issue" deception.
I see an anonymous comment poster under one of my recent pieces badmouthing Nehlen -- without specifics, of course. I've seen no negatives about the guy that override the positive that will come if Republicans will strap 'em on and #CantorRyan.
