So Far So Good

GOA-Endorsed Patrick Morrisey Wins! [More]
Great. Now all he needs to do is fill in the blanks.

As Long as Most Agree

FL Gov. Scott Says Tax Hikes Should Only Pass Congress With Two-Thirds Supermajority In Each House [More]
Is there anything this faithless partner wouldn't support if he could get enough votes? And will he be rewarded for his betrayals by desperate guncucks?

Preeemptive Strike

“I want to do something,” said Dan Daley, a Coral Springs commissioner. “But I’m so damn restricted…that I don’t have many options.” [More]
That's the way it's supposed to be, wannabe monster.

"Preemption," where states claim authority to "regulate," is a classic case of "wrong questions" in itself.

"The supreme Law of the Land" says "shall not be infringed."

Hogan's Zeros

Governor Hogan disregarded our veto requests and has signed the Handun Permit Review Board Bill (HB 819) , and the “red flag” bill (HB 1302). [More]
This is what happens when "Republicans" believe they don't need you. This is what happens when gun owners continue to let them get away with it by telling themselves the "lesser of two evils" lie.

Anybody surprised by this?


Gun Confiscation Ballot Measure Updates

The comments can be seen here. Many of you have shared the comments you sent with us. We have seen some very impressive and thorough work and you should all be proud. Next up as you know, is the same process for IP 44. [More]
How many gun owners do you figure there are in Oregon?

It Depends Upon what the Meaning of the Word 'Threat' Is

“The threats were and hostile and intimidating,” he told Colorado Politics. “I considered them serious enough to turn them over to law enforcement.” [More]
Well if you won't share them with us, how do we know?

Me, I consider someone threatening me with an edict that can result in armed enforcers prepared to use lethal force to strip me of a fundamental rights without full due process to be pretty damn hostile and intimidating.  I think anyone making such threats deserves whatever push-back he gets, especially if he's a back-stabbing A-rater.

When in Rome

What’s wrong with speaking Spanish at work? Nada. [More]
Yeah, why should anyone have to assimilate when the political momentum is on culturally terraforming invaded territory to suit the new occupiers?

Thank goodness none of this has anything to do with that "single issue."

¿Correcto?

Another Marxist for Disarmament

Karvelis grew up in rural Illinois and was an avid hunter, even owning guns at one point. But he's worried arming teachers would create a more hostile atmosphere in schools, one in which minority students could be impacted by more than other groups. "I'm not anti-gun. I'm anti-murderous weapons and slaughtering kids in schools. And that's what it comes down to for me." [More]
That's because Karvelis is a commie sympathizer trying to hide his affinities, don'tcha know.

¿Armas para que?

And that business about how much it would cost to arm teachers is a perfect example of asking the wrong question.

How much it costs to arm me is up to me.  How much it costs to arm you is up to you.

The Flood

So who hasn't lifted a finger to counter that?

Why?

The Young Nazi Snitch League

Student reported to police for talking about concealed carry... Student cadet officers overheard Westbrook’s conversation, and then reported her to campus police... [More]
Do the proto-"Only Ones" wear armbands?

I see the campus cops are just as big a group of boobs as when I went there back when dinosaurs ruled the earth...

The stories I could tell.

Destroy All Heretics

Conservatives flee student groups at the University of Denver after campus harassment [More]
I thought "bullying" produced school shooters...?

I guess this is more like "keeping."

Can They Be Trusted without Custodians?

U.S. District Court finds Some Felons Have Second Amendment Rights [More]
Nice to see the law partially corroborating "the law."

False Authority

"The Three Percenters are a national group that was loosely organized in 2008 by Mike Vanderboegh..." [More]
If Dictionary.com knew what they were talking about, they'd know Mike did not envision it to be a group nor "organize" it at all. To the contrary:
The Three Percent idea, the movement, the ideal, was designed to be a simple, powerful concept that could not be infiltrated or subjected to agents provocateurs like many organizations that I observed in the constitutional militia movement of the 90s.
There's also a huge difference between " during the American Revolution [15–25%] actually served in George Washington's army," which is cumulative, and "During the American Revolution, the active forces in the field against the King's tyranny never amounted to more than 3% of the colonists," which varied at any given time.

I see there are those now claiming the mantle of Three Percent leadership, some without even crediting Mike or even knowing who he was, and others psychotically celebrating his agonizing and extended dying process. There's no shortage of those who presume to teach when they're demonstrably not even qualified to be in the classroom without passing some prerequisites. And in the case of Dictionary.com, it appears they're just agenda-driven liars.

Unfortunately, theirs are the voices that influence the ignorant.

FBI ‘Active Shooter’ Report Supports ‘Good Guy with a Gun’ Claims


"In four incidents, citizens possessing valid firearms permits successfully stopped the shooter." [More]
Numbers could have been even higher if not for "gun-free zones."

We're the Only Ones Doubling Down Enough

Prosecutor: Detective driving rape victim home takes her to hotel, sexually assaults her [More]
I see the "values of our agency" statement from the chief and I'm trying to reconcile it with a 20-year veteran apparently having ther experience to believe the culture would allow him to get away with such conduct undetected.
