The man shot at school resource officer Mark Dallas, who returned fire ... The officer was not injured, nor was anyone else... [More]
Hat's off to the guy-- kept his head, performed when it counted, no doubt saved lives... all of us should hope to acquit ourselves as well.  Except we're not "allowed" to.

Speaking of Freaky

Yep, that’s an example of why I call him “Freaky” ... [More]
Oh, we know why.

Because all you have are ad hominem logical fallacy and Alinsky Rule 5 ridicule, and for "progressives," that's all you need.

So if I'm going to do, say, a Pokemon gif, that's going to be the first frame default image dictated by the program, or did you guys leave that in, and for a reason?

I guess past performance ought to give us a clue...

The March of Folly

Boulder City Council unanimously passes ban on assault weapons [More]
Funny -- what they consider 'an olive branch," some of us consider an Intolerable Act. How the hell do you issue a "prior ownership certificate" if you don't know who's got what, and how is that even remotely "the abandonment of ... a registration system"?

We're the Only Ones Like a Good Neighbor Enough

Russell addressed one incident involving a Branson Police officer’s bullet striking a home last fall. [More]
