Waldrop is conflating “automatic rifles” with semiautomatic firearms, and that’s been a move straight out of the gun-grabber playbook since the Violence Policy Center’s Josh Sugarmann explained the tactical deception back in 1988...[More]Why don't they know it's a lie? Or do they, and they're counting on the readers not knowing?

There’s No Excuse for Paper to Host Demonstrable Falsehood on ‘Automatic Rifles’
Let Them Eat Cake
"That's what you have security for," she says dismissively. [More]And Kim Kardashian has plenty.
The sisters at least sound receptive.
I'd like to say it amazes me that she gets gushing agreement from admirers who are too stupid to realize she's essentially telling them their lives aren't worth protecting, but then again, for anyone empty enough to be a "fan," nothing surprises me.
Besides, considering the numbers, losing a handful won't affect her bottom line (does she have any other kind?) one bit.

Disregard? For Now?
HPD will not enforce order requiring marijuana card holders to turn in guns [More]We just talked about this here.
Question: Can those subject to the seizures take the "will not be enforced and should be disregarded" assertion as sound legal advice, or if police are dispatched to their residences on other matters will the records be matched to obtain a warrant?

Much as I Hate to Admit It, They've Got a Point
UNIVERSITY DEMANDS PEOPLE BE WARNED ABOUT SEEING A CROSS - Officials fret just viewing it will cause 'emotional trauma' [More]Sorry to side with the Prozis, but WarOnGuns has obtained exclusive footage proving that concern is valid:
There oughtta be a law...
Calling All Suckers
But I'll be honest with you. [More]Why start now?
I wonder if Johnson approves of this guy using a name he has worked hard to establish to fund...what, exactly?
I think I'll ask him (again).
Naked Apparatchiks
The toiletpaper of record removes all pretext of objectivity. [More]
At least they're consistent.

But...But...But 'Single Issue'...
Maria Espinoza, founder of The Remembrance Project, joins Grant to discuss how her organization is helping to raise awareness about the price of illegal immigration. [Watch]And they managed to totally avoid the part that's relevant to RKBA.
He did it! He missed the barn!

Stop and Go
'Right Turn,' Opposite Day 'Progressive'-Style
Oh look: What WaPo would have us believe is a "conservative perspective"...[More]
So what must that make those of us "to the right" of her, which isn't hard to be.

They Should Have Stopped By Here First
A group of 32 Chinese nationals who invested in an electric car company founded by Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe has sued McAuliffe and other key figures involved in GreenTech Automotive, claiming they were lured into a “scam” under false pretenses. [More]Shoot, I've got a whole archive showing what a fraud this guy is.

Leftward Tilt
Is Chief Justice Roberts A Secret Liberal? [More]It's either that or some Dolly the Love Ewe photos have surfaced.

Domestic Enemy
"Republican" Peter King... [More]
Not to start an argument about the whole "permit" absurdity that has been foisted on us, but because of his given reasons added to his total record and noting who he's standing in solidarity with.
NEVER give directly to the GOP because they'll end up sharing it with those who will use it to subvert your birthright.

Speaking of Abominations
Remember this: I hate you because you shouldn’t exist... [More]Life imitates art:
Dang. There's never a "gun buyback" around when I get inspired to turn in my "weapons of war."
Wanna see what inspires Rudy?

Deemed to be 'Offensive'
The RCMP announced Monday it will expunge any data on religious and cultural practices collected from Muslim refugee claimants who had crossed the U.S. border at a popular informal crossing in Quebec. [More]Keep it on that side of the line and I don't care.
It can be kept on that side of the line, can't it? And we can stay "rigorous" on ours?

A Little Horse Trading
House committee approves NRA-backed concealed carry bill ... The members also approved a less controversial bill 17-6 to boost authorities' compliance with the federal background check system. [More]Out of committee does not a victory make, and we can see something not all of us consider "less controversial" had to be offered up to move things this far. Everybody may want to tone down on the jubiliation and figure out what's going to need to happen next to up the odds:
All Voters are Equal But Some Voters are More Equal than Others
Election officials and policymakers are being browbeaten by national activists and Twitter bots to dump an agreement between states to compare voter lists for identifying duplicates and potential fraud. [More]Hey, we mustn't "disenfranchise" illegals, criminals and the dead...
Besides, if preventing "haters" from assembling and speaking is a form of self-defense, how much more justifiable is preventing their votes from prevailing?

Q.E.D.
Despite Little Evidence of Success, Australia Continues to Expand Gun Control [More]So if you guys know"gun control" doesn't work, how come you keep greenlighting it?
[Via Jess]
What are They Waiting For?
NRA Hasn’t Rated Pro-Gun Roy Moore vs Pro-Gun Control Doug Jones [More]That's because the Lairds of Fairfax prefer to sit atop the hill watching others take the risks while they treat in secret with Longshanks.
What? The accusation controversy has nothing to do with that "single issue"? Hey, this is the "pragmatic" thing to do!
Besides, there'll be time enough to take credit if the man is vindicated.

Somos Los Unicos Non-White Enough
While the remaining members of the group sat on the curb, one teen can be heard in the video recording asking why he’s being detained ... That’s when the officer responds with “Because you’re white,” and walks away. [More]Nice to see he now has regrets. Any bets on it being because he was caught and can't deny the recording?
And of course he won't be fired. Now imagine the same scenario with ethnicity reversed.
Imagine a similar reason being given for a disciplinary justification in a private sector job.

Yes He Should
Smith Should Back Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act [More]Any bets on if he will?
This is why I say only support worthy individual officeholders and seekers, never a party that will share its take with your enemies. And let them know why.
Up in Smoke
The Honolulu Police Department has told legal marijuana users who own guns that they must turn in their weapons within 30 days. [More]Nothing less than their birthright is what the cannabis users are trading for a mess of pot when they allow their lives to be ruled by power junkies.
UPDATE:
HPD will not enforce order requiring marijuana card holders to turn in gunsPer George Pace: "They won't require existing card holders to turn in their already registered guns (i.e. ALL guns in Hawaii), but will not issue any future 'permits to acquire' (ALL guns in Hawaii require a 'permit to acquire' prior to acquisition) to anyone holding a medical cannabis card."
What to Do if You're One of the Anti-Gun Elites Confronted by Your Victim
Call security, of course... [More]
What better way to show you're “embarrassed and ashamed" and that you hope you "can make it up to them and gradually regain their trust”?
The Golden Spike
Why did NBC smother Ronan Farrow’s explosive, months-long investigation into Harvey Weinstein’s alleged sexual assaults and predatory behavior — an investigation undertaken by one of its own employees? [More]Why is a "revelation" that the media routinely smothers stories that don't serve its interests "news"? And more important stories than who their resident pigs are...
Case in point, this from a month-and-a-half after Mike and I first started trying to uncover what happened in Gunwalker and get them to notice...
