Sang sur les Mains de la NRA

Masked gunmen with Kalashnikovs open fire on a group of youngsters in Marseille leading to shoot-out with French police [More]
But...but...but...

I'm sure David and Emma have some helpful solutions.

Is This a Trick Question?

Let's review the bidding:

Assuming you're serious about this and agree with this, there's really only one clear choice.  I guess my question back is, how come I'm telling you instead of you telling us?

Last Night on Armed American Radio


Guest Lineup: An exceptional and incredibly informative Monster Broadcast from the Crossbreed Holster Studios. Hour one saw the return of Alan Gottlieb. Alan had been traveling and fighting the fight at various venues and gives us his one-of-a-kind insight today. Hour two saw AWR Hawkins be AWR Hawkins. Nuff said. Hour three brought long-time AAR contributor David Codrea, who as usual, shows why he is a long-time contributor! Enjoy this exceptional AAR broadcast! [More]
Fun for me as usual...


We're the Only Ones Mousey Enough

Cops Claim That Mice Ate Half a Ton of Missing Marijuana [More]
That's gotta be more believable than thinking the Only Ones trustworthy enough to have guns would do anything improper.

It's "Settled Science"

We’ve won the argument – 90 percent of Americans think that we should have universal background checks.  [More]
Yeah, but...

How very "progressive."

It's Not Like He Has to Know What He's Talking About

At least he's been waking up dry for the past few years.

A Quorum of Qusilings

Something must be done? [More]

Where have I heard that before?

So you present a menu of neocon surrender options to pick from?

If you "libertarians" at Reason want to do something, how about you stop sabotaging RKBA through your Democrat-enabling "immigration" advocacy?

Captain's Log

All the Arguments Needed

On the one hand, we have a qualified and enthusiastic testimonial for reliability and ease of use. [Watch]

On the other hand we have those waiting to pounce, and to mandate such technology for the guns themselves.

There ought to be a place in a free market for those who perceive a use for such devices, and those providing them have every right to extol their virtues.

The issue here is how to keep the totalitarians from exploiting it. Then I think "New Jersey."

This will go on until the recognized right of the people to keep and bear  "ordinary military equipment ... in common use at the time" is secured.

The Friends of My Enemy

Koch Bros Running Ads for Democrats: ‘Thank You’ for Pushing Open Borders [More]
How often are their names trotted out as archetypes for "conservatives"? Sure, most of that is by useful idiots, but at its core there's a purpose being served.

A Trained Policewoman

So much for a man will just take a gun away from a woman and use it against her, typically made by zealots who don't know but somehow believe... [More]

In comments, we learn the incident took place in Brazil a while back and the woman was a police officer, which means the option for an "ordinary citizen" to respond in force is limited because:
In Brazil, private possession of handguns (pistols and revolvers) is prohibited,125 with only narrow exemptions129 130 126 127 128 38
Glomming onto the "trained policewoman" meme, resident male herbivores quickly fall into "Only One" subservience, with not a one of them being able to justify their assertions by citing police range qualification requirements (how often, how many shots, score, retries, like we talked about here). One, not making the point he thinks he's making asserts:
"I am a gun owner and bet I would freeze in a situation like this or get my kid out of there in a flash."
In other words, if you're certain of that, you're admitting to being an untrained gun owner, which makes you an irresponsible gun owner, which makes fair the question why are you a gun owner, especially if you have children?  You're saying you have a gun but if your kids are ever endangered by an aggressor you "bet" your reaction would be to "freeze" and you would be useless to them as a father and protector?

Hey, your words, buddy, not mine.

Yeah, I understand no one knows how they will really act until they find themselves facing the beast, which makes anticipating and training for that eventuality a responsibility that goes with the right.

"She's a trained policewoman" is just a cop-out. And considering the level of training most go through, a pretty inexcusable one at that.

Oh, look: Another trained policewoman!  Who thinks she'll protect your kids?

A Vivid Imagination

[More]
No, it doesn't "allow Congress" to do that at all, but it is telling that you want the men that would enforce such a ban to be armed with "assault rifles that are designed for one purpose only - to kill as many people as fast as possible."

'FBI ... Not Processing Appeals as Required by Law'

We submitted a FOIA regarding NICS and the appeals process in April 2016.  Today we received documents responsive to that request.  The documents produced demonstrate that the FBI and NICS were not processing appeals as required by law as alleged in all of our 18 USC 925A cases we have filed to date.  On page 50 of the attached, it says "The AST has five business days to tell a denied individual the reason for their denial.  However, the AST Examiners are not performing any appeal work due to the increased volume."  On page 57, someone wrote this email: "We stopped processing front-end [appeals] mail on 11/25/2015."  [More]
It links at the end to a pdf of the production.

Watch the Skies!


You realize this Kasky character is a certified "Only One" whose got his, and feels free to attack while refusing to allow rebuttals:
I don't engage in conversations on Twitter, just Tweet some & read some. If you're a dick I block u. Defender of the US Constitution. Ain't no time to hate.
No cognitive dissonance there at all.

And as for "TRUST ME,' well, Di... I mean, Jeff, you kind of make that problematic.

Anyway, the big announcement we're supposed to watch out for should come from here and here. So here's what we must do:


Grab 'em by the P*ssy


[More]
Lest anyone question their qualifications as interpreters of founding intent, especially as it pertains to young men and arms ... or hands, for that matter...

A curious thing about all the "progressive" approval this has received -- imagine the murderous indignation if it has been Emma he did that to.

Dumpsters for Disarmament

Former Porn Star Gives Up Her Gun In Virtue Signaling Stunt, Parrots Democratic Talking Points [More]
I look at that photo with the Austin Only One and expect sleazy music to cut in.

But she's not anti-2A. Honest.

That's why she "will be donating the gun’s value ($1,500) to the @Everytown organization."

Except that's not its value, she later admits.  Hey, it can be tough to keep stories straight.

Take her "manager" -- please!

Skunk Skank!

"I was with her when she bought that weapon," he insists. "We had it within 10 minutes of entering the store. No background check. Nothing about that experience was 'well regulated'."

"Store"? "No background check"?

"We bought it at a pawn shop. I never said it was a gun store," he counters. And then ducks everyone asking "Where?" before changing the subject and signing off.

Ah well. There are some who think she made absolutely  the right choice.

Opposite Day 'Progressive' School Safety Plan

The Illinois House of Representatives on Friday approved a plan to replace armed police officers in schools with unarmed mental health professionals. [More]
No, this is not another absurd post from "The Onion." But it could be.

They must really hate the young, which I guess is the mark of an organism that longs for annihilation.

Looks like they want another crack at the ones they missed in the womb...

Until Further Notice

From the May 17 Weekly E-Cruiter email:
Until further notice is provided by the NRA Recruiting Programs staff, Recruiters are not authorized to display any materials advertising or referencing NRA insurance benefits.
They're not allowed to "refer to the $2,500 ArmsCare Basic Firearms Insurance or $5,000 Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance during your sales pitch. Recruiters should state only that the NRA endorses Lockton Affinity or AGIA as a broker." There are also prohibitions on displaying or advertising "the insurance benefits or insurance components of membership programs."

I thought Lockton threw them under the bus. Is endorsing them anything like giving a gun-grabbing political whore an "A"?

Rape Their Minds


...and their bodies will follow. [More]

Give it a few years, and those opposing this will be condemned as haters.

The goal is not tolerance -- it's unchallengeable supremacy.

Ultimately, what they lust to rape are souls.

We're the Only Ones Scathing Enough

Houston police chief pens scathing post on gun control, rips politicians who ‘do absolutely nothing’ [More]
But he doesn't really get into specifics justifying why this or that would prevent what happened. He's making noise and showing his inability to think things through. It's a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

So what do you want to do, [expletive deleted], ban revolvers and shotguns?

Go figure -- he's a refugee from Castro's "¿Armas para que?" Cuba who wants to eviscerate our Second Amendment and provide sanctuary for cultural terraforming by foreign invaders. And he want his guys, who "from 2010 to 2014 ... killed more people than LAPD with half as many officers" to be the "Only Ones"?

I need to stop or I won't be able to delete the next expletive, and I do my best not to get too colorful with my language, at least what I use in public.

No One is Talking About Taking Your Guns


[More]
No, you want other men to do it, men equipped with -- what do your fellow totalitarians call them?
"[W]eapons ... made for one purpose. They are designed to kill as many people as possible in a short amount of time. They do not belong in our communities...”
Except when enforcers deployed to disarm our communities determine they need to kill a lot of people in a short amount of time?

Resistance is futile? Surrender or be destroyed?

Esquire.

Need I say more?
