SAFE Act Prosecutions will Show if New York Dares Enforce Registration Infringements


What are they taking an oath to do?
Acts of tyranny passed under color of law do not override the supreme Law of the Land. [More]
All they want is “an up-to-date database on active pistol permits at the state and local levels.” And why might they want that?

We're the Only Ones Double-Dipping Enough

When Capt. Tia Morris turned 50, after about three decades in the Los Angeles Police Department, she became eligible to retire with nearly 90% of her salary. But like many cops and firefighters in her position, the decision to keep working was a financial no-brainer, thanks to a program that allowed her to nearly double her pay by keeping her salary while also collecting her pension. [More]
What an indispensable community hero! That must be why she gets to carry a gun in L.A. and you don't.

Any bets on how she'd compare skill-wise?

Glad to see they put their interns on this condensed ignorance. Or did they? [More]

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Term 'Intimate Partner' Is

Canada: As Quebec Brings Long-gun Registry On-line, Federal Liberals Plan New Restrictions [More]
That's because it'll never be never enough!  When are those who should know better going to act like they know that and stop offering politically-motivated concessions every time they see a chance to cave?

Bullet Points

Man who sold ammo to Vegas shooter is charged with making armor-piercing bullets [More]
Here's the complaint.

I guess in lieu of telling us anything that doesn't get contradicted a week later, this makes it look like they're out there making the world a better place or something.

Good. Don't let the door hit ya, stupid gunbimbo. Or do.

I'd never heard of her, but then again, I'm not in this for the sport.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

Within hours, the hard left got hold of the inspirational story and mangled it into a cautionary tale about Republican misogyny, mistreatment of the poor and a handmaid forced to reproduce against her will, human roadkill in the evil war on drugs. No mention was made of innocent children maimed by drugs and parental neglect. [More]
Well yeah. You don't expect overprivileged "feminists" to do anything but bitch, do you?

We're the Only Ones Camera-Shy Enough

FBI told state police not to wear body cameras for 2016 stop of refuge occupation leaders [More]
That and one of their JBTs lied.

Say LaVoy had survived, and had taken down one of his would-be assassins...

Anybody think he'd be out on bail while awaiting trial?

We're the Only Ones Clamping Down on Potty-Mouths Enough

The FBI is investigating four Honolulu police officers who are accused of forcing a man to place his mouth on a urinal inside a public restroom... [More]
So monopolies of violence breed contempt for the powerless by sadistic thugs in charge?  Who knew?

We're the Only Ones Out Back Enough

"She said police are shooting people, and she could have gotten shot in the parking lot, and the manager had to walked her and her husband to their vehicle" ...[More]
She has a point, although I doubt it's to complain about the disparity.

Me, I won't eat in an Outback because of their "gun free zone" policy.  It's not just a matter of boycott and principle, it's also because once word on the street gets out that a target is soft, their idiot policy demonstrably puts patrons at risk.

We're the Only Ones Protection Racketeering Enough

For a few thousand bucks, Detroit police will give a business higher 911 priority [More]
Nice place you got here. Shame if something happened to it...

We're the Only Ones Autonomous Enough

Ford Filed a Patent for an Autonomous Police Car That Can Issue Tickets [More]
What if it's one o' them newfangled autonomous passenger cars?

Talk about something just inviting creative and humorous ways for people to try and outdo each other monkeywrenching. Or sledgehammering...

Hey they just want to make it back to the garage at the end of their shift...

[Via Florida Guy]  

We're the Only Ones Getting Hammered Enough

Suspect takes sledgehammer to 12 Dallas police cars [More]
Note "the union demanding action to keep officers safe" and the resident believing "feeling safe" is the goal.

You could have a bumper car, bumping

We're the Only Ones Contacting Enough

The Stockton Police Department arrested Officer Matthew Huff for allegedly having inappropriate contact with a minor. [More]
At least he didn't do it while in uniform, and at least when he's out of a job he'll still have an income.

[Via Steve A]

Seriously?


People would pay to watch this? [More]

You couldn't pay me, or at least it would establish my price.

Give the Man a Chance to Respond

“Them,” at the range, often means “him,” i.e. Michael Bloomberg, who, despite having left the mayor’s office almost three years ago, remains the subject of countless tirades and conspiracy theories. Herman contends that his whole anti-gun vendetta springs from the raw shame of having once simultaneously shat and pissed himself in front of all his colleagues at the sound of nearby gunfire. (The incident hasn’t been documented or attested to anywhere, but Herman believes in it truly and fervently.) [More]
I missed this when it came out (I was on a much-needed vacation) and have not seen that rumor repeated elsewhere. In the interests of determining if it's true or false, I suppose  the fairest thing to do would be to ask him.

By the Numbers

The Cost of Illegal Immigration [More]
Ands then there are the real costs yet to be incurred.

I see the Gatestone report cites Lott.

I wonder if he'll ever publicly point out the debacle his co-author's "immigration" stance will guarantee...

Every Silver Lining's Got a Touch of Grey

Good Samaritan situations can be unpredictable and do not always go so well for the people intervening, even when the person trying to help is an officer and trained. [More]

We're the Only Ones Dodgy Enough

So if that's all you get for lying to law enforcement, what's the deal with all those non-"Only Ones" deemed felons and "prohibited persons"?

Another Case of Unequal Treatment Under the Law

A Kansas City man’s Facebook live broadcast of himself driving around while holding a gun had one very interested viewer. And that viewer — a Kansas City police detective — captured the broadcast on his own video camera. As a result, 24-year-old Deleon Reed is now charged in federal court with being a felon in possession of a firearm — a felony that could send him back to prison for up to 10 years. [More]
So why do "authorities" continue being deliberately indifferent to "white privileged" Pokey-Poke not only mass-flouting the law (while abetted by Hollywood accomplices), but being fabulously rewarded for it?

I'd say I'm surprised no one from the "social justice" community is raising hell about the selective enforcement -- especially when the one getting away with this "injustice" has a history of actual "hate crime" convictions -- except to note that chances are most will never know about it thanks to "mainstream press" gatekeeping.

Coming Soon to a Sanctuary State Near You

For those who think California politics is on the far-left fringe of the national spectrum, stand by. The next election season, already well underway here, will showcase a younger generation of Democrats that is more liberal and personally invested in standing up to President Trump’s Washington than those leaving office. [More]
And just wait 'til you see the generation after that

Not that it has anything to do with that "single issue."

Sympathy for the Devil



Not that I give a damn about that pig, but this broad is just plain nuts:
‘I Didn’t Agree to Your Cis F—ing World’
I wonder how many unclean spirits have taken up residence in there, because her rage is clearly at God.

Her childish complaint reminds me of when I was like nine, and did something assholish meriting justified parental chastisement.

"I never asked to be born!" I bellowed from my room (like that's original), posing as the still-defiant injured party while knowing deep down I deserved whatever they would mete out and then some.

Denial of that truth is the hallmark of sociopaths and worse.

Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor, Your Huddled Masses Yearning to Breathe Free Stuff

The mayor of Stockton, California, is leading an experiment with “universal basic income,” which is set to start by giving low-income residents $500 a month, no questions asked. [More]
Some people never learn.

Please sir, I want some more.

They sure are generous with other people's money.

In the interests of humanity, I'm thinking of printing cards to hand to local off-ramp cardboard sign-holding beggars and let them know there are warmer climes and easier pickings. Right now I'm stuck on a slogan: "Go west young man" or "California or bust"... ?

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Big Game

At least 40 people strung themselves across the Metro Transit Green Line tracks near the University of Minnesota, blocking the tracks midafternoon for ticket holders using the line to get to the stadium. [More]
Hmmm...

More to the Point

You are missing the point…it isn’t about “self-reporting”, it is about BEING reported. [More]
That's what the "identity theft" alludes to -- I suppose I could have fleshed that out a bit more:
Nor does it specify safeguards and penalties against identity theft and “false positives” that result in a wrong person being denied.
