Ok Kids, 21 It Is [More]After all, anyone who can't be trusted with a gun can't be trusted without a custodian.

Fair is Fair
Back By Popular Demand?
Two-thirds of Americans now support stricter gun control measures – including nearly HALF of Republicans [More]Assuming this result of loaded questions asked of people who don't understand their implications is true, what the Elephants had best get straight is if they abandon their base, they'll never have power again.
It will be instructive to see how many gun owners will hold on to theirs.

How Much of an Exception to the Rule?
Murder charge filed after nurses seen on camera laughing as veteran gasps for breath [More]You have to wonder how often death by neglect happens yet never gets exposed.

The Going Rate
From Len Savage:
In a 5th circuit case I was asked to explain the legal definition of a machinegun so that it would be easily understood....I was also tasked with explaining how rate of fire is NOT part of the definition.
If bump stock could have been banned by any interpretation of current law the previous administration would have banned them.

To Their Credit?
What if the finance industry — credit card companies like Visa, Mastercard and American Express; credit card processors like First Data; and banks like JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo — were to effectively set new rules for the sales of guns in America? [More]I believe market opportunities will attract entrepreneurs.
Also, I'm not certain what kind of collusion is allowed under existing regulatory frameworks they all must abide by. A coordinated closing off of the entire market would seem to invite that other "progressive" policy, antitrust laws. And there's always the boycott factor, especially if all do not go along. Not to mention political pressure. For instance, JP Morgan has plenty of dealings with the feds, and why not have a political push for agencies to not use banking services that discriminate against gun owners?
We'll see.
Boy, the weasels sure want to destroy a basic right, do they not?
They'll Never Stop
GUN CONFISCATION COURTS TO BE PROPOSED [More]And they'll keep pushing and pushing and pushing until they force a pushback.
A Rational Response
Teachers sign up for free concealed carry training [More]So they' won't be networking...?

The Fairfix Is In?
Big NRA sellout on guns to be announced Friday? [More]
I cannot overemphasize that this is uncorroborated. Now that it's out there I'd be derelict not to present it, but caution against kneejerk buying into it as gospel.
It names Col.Brown and says he's threatened to resign. I've emailed him and asked if this is true.
UPDATE-- He emailed me back:

Black Lives Matter?
Planned Parenthood Attacks Trump Judicial Nominee for Being White [More]So they want judges to look more like their victims?

The Useful Idiot Network
The schools signed up as host schools on The Action Network website. [More]You know, the folks with the commie fist run by a jihad/sharia-endorsing, accused sexual assault enabler who attacks female genital mutilation survivors.
You know, Shannon allies who employ armed guards.
Oh, and look:
Officials from Hamilton High School in Chandler and Highland High School in Gilbert did not respond to requests for comments on Monday.That shouldn't be an option. That's not why they've been hired.
There are individuals who can be identified and held accountable.

Riling the Mob
That's exactly what Drew Griffin and CNN did. And everyone who reacted with an attack on that woman is no different from a raging lynch mob member. [More]
And you'll notice they're not attacking Michael Moore and the anti-Trump rallyers, goddamned "progressive" hypocrites and cowards.

False Assumptions
I didn't get picked. I volunteered... [More]Good kid.
But Mom, who would have been fine with a white child standing in front, is being praised for her parenting skills? At least the kid hasn't automatically adopted her melanin über alles attitude, even if she does dress him to reinforce that.
And no one lauding the "brave boy" thinks to ask why a 10-year-old needs to "volunteer" for anything, or why all the adult "teacher" can do is lock the door and paper over its window?

Children Should Be Seen and Not Heard
Texas school will suspend gun control protesters: ‘Here for education, not political protest’ [More]Right on.
And they have other standards as well.
But there's still a core issue that needs to be addressed.

A Staunch Supporter
"I absolutely believe that in this country if you are 18 years of age, you should not be able to buy a rifle, and I will support a law that takes that right away," Rubio said at CNN's town hall in Florida. [More]If that doesn't merit "the highest attainable 'A+' rating from the NRA," nothing does.

We're the Only Ones Letting No Good Deed Go Unpunished Enough
Hero Citizen Stops Potential Mass Shooting, Amarillo Police Shoot Him [More]Hey, how are we to know he's a fellow superhero if he's not wearing a costume?
Suppliers and Demands
It's not just homicides that have increased in Baltimore — commercial robberies are up 88 percent [More]And when stores are driven out, the ruling "progressives" will complain it's easier to buy a gun than fresh vegetables.
And, of course, the reason why everything is so crappy is because of racism.

Attack of the Pod People
Just last week, Congress was calling on Tide to change the design of the Pods so teenagers would stop eating them. This week, teenagers should determine gun policy. [More]Hey, Fourteen or Fight, baby!

Diversionary Tactics
The policies were called “diversionary programs” and were essentially about stopping High School students from being arrested. Law enforcement was instructed to avoid arrests and defer criminal conduct to school administrators. [More]And the rest is history...

A Question of Credibility
Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student Colton Haab said he was approached by CNN to ask a question at Wednesday night's town hall but decided not to after the network gave him a "scripted question," quashing one he wrote himself. Haab, a member of the Junior ROTC shielded students while the school was under attack from the shooter, said he was going to ask about using veterans as armed security guards. [More]The most busted name in news...
CNN denies it, so the question becomes "Who do we believe?"
A kid who risked his life to save others or the DSM?

Fools' Paradise
Ensuring the safety of every student at Clarksburg is a top priority and a responsibility that I take very seriously. [More]Obviously not.
And back to our story:
Parents piled into a PTSA meeting Thursday night at Clarksburg High School to ask school officials about the incident and how a student could bring a loaded gun onto campus. This is a closed campus, meaning all doors are locked. However, students are not individually searched. One parent said maybe that should change.Teach your children well...
