We're the Only Ones Slowed Down Enough


How dare you mundanes take a defensive stance until the threat is over! Don't you realize by now the priority is for us to get home at the end of our shift? [More]

An Appealing Decision

What does this mean for pro-gun Ohioans?  It means that the statewide preemption of firearms laws we fought for, and now embodied in ORC 9.68, finally has some teeth.  It means that every city in the State of Ohio now knows that not only will they lose if they try to uphold their anti-gun ordinances but also that they will have to pay the legal fees of the pro-gun groups who fight them.

So who's paying for that again? Certainly not the guy complaining that if he hadn't been caught he wouldn't have been booted.

If that doesn't work, wait for the lawsuit.

When it's all said and done, I'd like to see what it cost the tax cows to enjoy the pleasures of his company.

The Sword of Allah

Received via email:
David, Having worked in the military language and operational culture arena for some decades (20 yrs active duty linguist/analyst, and now as a contractor) I think Islamic naming conventions are important indicators. Sayfollo for example, properly rendered is Sayf-Allah: Sword of Allah. No hint there for the visa screeners!
But...but...but...rigorous!

We're the Only Ones Enforcing 'Progressive' Values Enough

A white police chief in New Jersey slammed a handcuffed young black man's head against a metal doorjamb and one of his officers recorded him making a series of racist comments, according to a federal indictment announced Wednesday...Nucera had a history of making racist comments and used police dogs to intimidate African-Americans...  [More]
As I figured. (And it's a useful microcosm for demonstrating how Romney/McCain-style RINOism doesn't buy you a thing at the polls.)

Advice to the Senselorn

WaPo's Ann Landers/Miss Manners knockoff advises on kids, friends and guns. [More]

All in all, it's not that bad. I've never been averse to letting unfamiliar people know that IF I had guns, they would either be secured or under control. If that's not good enough, then we don't have a match. If we did have a match, we'd typically all end up at the range if friendships worked out.

WarOnGuns Correspondent William T sent her some information she hopefully won't just ignore:

Hey, I don't know about you,but I'm suddenly in the mood for some music:


Tangentially related: I always hated the term "play date." It truly does imply a "progressive" maternal pussification and yoke-acceptance agenda. I always just told my Mom I was going over to so-and-so's house and she'd tell me to be back by dinner.

A Special Offer



WarOnGuns Correspondent Florida Guy forwarded the latest vital alert we need to all be on top of. It's a "member benefit" we've discussed before.

Whether I'm preemptively surrendering, making "single issue" excuses, assigning undeserved ratings or just throwing someone or thing under the bus, there's nothing I like better than to relax with a nice glass of... oh, wait, they don't carry Yalumba any more...

But don't just take it from me.

I talked about our Hometown Boy with younger feral son Qusay last night and he says a co-worker used to live across the street from the guy. It's bugging me that I seem to recall seeing someone who looked like him at a place I do a weekly run -- I wonder if the investigation will show he's a Sam's Club member...
