Orlando Police Testing Amazon's Real-Time Facial Recognition [More]
Rather like a habit
One can always break-
And yet,
We've grown accustomed to the trace
Of something in the air;
Accustomed to your face.

We're the Only Ones Who've Grown Accustomed to Your Face Enough

The Way Things Oughtta Be
GEORGIA SCHOOL BOARD UNANIMOUSLY VOTES TO ARM TEACHERS WITH GUNS [More]As opposed to with what...?
It's kind of a misleading headline unless they're going to provide the firearms. I also note the "parents" selectively interviewed were universally against it, which, considering we're talking Newsweek here, is hardly surprising.

We're the Only Ones Watching Enough
I want confirmation if taxpayer dollars are being used to surveil citizens who criticize political appointees’ public remarks. [More]Hey, surveillance for sentments of disloyalty along with citizen disarmament was good enough for his native Cuba...

Like a Food Truck But for Guns
Having a Professional Drive to Your Home and Clean Your Guns Is More Practical Than You Might Think [More]Oh, look: Something new to invent objections against.
[Via Michael G, who writes: "A new outfit, starting small in just one region comes to your home and does an armory level detail clean of guns. I couldn't see spending the money for it for ordinary cleaning, but to occasionally get to the areas you don't want to take apart because you don't have the correct tools or are afraid parts will fly off never to be seen again it sounds like it would be worth it. The bit about the cleaning tank struck a cord with me, in my 15 years in the Air Guard up until the just before I left we shot qualifications with M16s with 22 adapter units and you know how dirty those get and how malfunction prone they are when dirty. But ours always worked near flawlessly because after each use they were cleaned in the tanks used for cleaning our M61 Vulcan cannon barrels.
"If they succeed in expanding they look like they would also be a good job opportunity for gun people. And provide decentralized armory support for the militia."]
Maybe Getting Ready to Think About It!
Momentum Builds for Second Special Council to Reopen Clinton Probe, Investigate DOJ [More]So nothing has actually been ordered and we're basically still in the Jack Benny phase...?

Sticker Shock
Thieves in the Huntersville area are targeting supporters of the NRA and other gun enthusiasts lately. Police say they are scouting for gun-related stickers on cars in parking lots, then busting into those cars and taking the guns for themselves. [More]It's curious this story doesn't even attempt to cite an instance where a gun has actually been stolen from a car with such a decal. That said, I don't recommend sporting such stickers because there are plenty of cowardly "progressive" vandals, not to mention official thugs just looking for a reason to play alpha male.
We're the Only Ones Reasonable Enough
Not only does the unreleased video show no bite, but Hill never says that he had been bitten — a direct contrast to what he wrote later in his report...the video shows that Hill's lapel camera was pointing at the sky when Hill fired because he had slipped on ice, ultimately losing his gun in the snow. [More]Dishonest, negligent and clumsy, but "[t]he plaintiffs can’t show the officer’s behavior was unreasonable”...

The Invader Assistance Agency
No one more exemplified this resistance to enforcing immigration law than Irene Martin, Field Office Director, USCIS, San Bernardino, CA, who blocked DHS agents from arresting the man who supplied guns to the San Bernardino terrorists. [More]How is it this is being allowed to continue?

And Still Across the Pond...
Judge calls for 10in pointed kitchen knives to be ground down to a rounded end after hearing three serious stabbing cases in last three months... Ideas come from Judge Nic Madge [More]
No it doesn't. The moronic "idea" has been around for years. And I guess this also means we'll need file control.
The grinning idiot reminds me of nothing so much as the Upper Class Twit of the Year.
New Kids on the Block
SEVEN WHO SUED TRUMP WON'T STOP UNTIL PRESIDENT UNBLOCKS THEM ON TWITTER: 'WE'LL TAKE IT TO THE SUPREME COURT' [More]So has anyone here been blocked by any Democrat politicians?
Turnabout seems fair play, and I'd be interested in helping see if that could be arranged.
I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar
"Maybe I will start a movement. Another #metoo movement. But this time, which women feel empowered enough to become serial killers." [More]You never seem to be able to find social media accounts for "progressives" gone wild any more. They're getting quicker at taking stuff down. I'd love to be able to find Hillary and Everytown tie-ins.
"Disappearing" such pages means if we want to find out anything, we're dependent on what "officials" tell "authorized journalists."
Inshallah?
A Muslim running for Congress in California said he backs President Trump’s policies on immigration and terrorism, and condemns groups such as the Council on American-Islamic Relations, because they pose a threat to the nation’s security. [More]So when is he going to put out an unequivocal statement on the right to keep and bear arms?
Meanwhile,Across the Pond in Piers MorganParadise
My biggest question is when will Meghan Markle speak out?
Blackish
Being reduced to a crayon color as the prefix before professional endeavor and or ideological construct is the most insidiously baneful form of alienation and derogation today. [More]Yeah, but just think of all that money and power...

A Calculated Side Effect
The state of Alabama is suing the Department of Commerce and the Bureau of the Census to ensure illegal aliens are excluded from the 2020 census, which is used to apportion congressional seats. [More]They don't even have to vote to give Democrat gun-grabbers (but I repeat myself) an advantage.
A Bogus Argument
In the New York Times, Carl Bogus attempts to taint the Second Amendment by linking it to America’s greatest historical evil, slavery. I say “attempt” because Bogus doesn’t make an argument so much as he insinuates, gestures, and implies perfidy with a wink. [More]In other words, standard gun-grabber conflation M.O...
And talk about an aptronym...
This HCI board member/VPC advisor with his stale academic fraud keeps being reintroduced every few years to disseminate talking points to a new crop of "progressive" agitators, who believe they're hearing something new.

Out of the Frying Pan?

I grok stopping My Man Mitthead. I really do.
But Mike Kennedy is no answer.
When he says "Defend Second Amendment" he offers rah-rah platitudes, and then turns around and spearheads a "nonpartisan gun violence panel" of special interest apparatchiks pushing prior restraint/no due process ERPOs, and promises to includes "two high school students." Democrats and teenagers -- there's a formula for "shall not be infringed."
Pander much?
I also note when he says "Fix Immigration Process," he qualifies it by asserting "legal immigration is the lifeblood of our country" and doesn't say a word about what to do with the invaders already here.
There'll be plenty of lifeblood all over the country, alright, if new citizens and their offspring continue voting the way they have and do.
Utah's got real problems, and their problems are our problems. I see no solutions here.
But glossing that over and acting like there is one has always leds gun owners down the path of betrayal.
Back into the Gun Safe
"Boulder has traditionally tried to welcome different people to the community," Caldara says. "It had a registry for same-sex couples before they could legally marry, so it helped people get out of the closet. But what Boulder is doing now is putting gun owners back into a closet. And that goes against everything Boulder claims to stand for." [More]I hope he's not advocating for a registry or any form of authorizaton.
I remember when I first came out of the gun safe. San Francisco sicced the cops on me.
There's another element to that story that's pretty funny and shows what a pussy Gavin Newsom is that I found out about through a FOIA and need to write up.

Ye Shall Know Them by Their Fruits
Dana Loesch notes a subversive Instagram post that has since been taken down. [More]
Here's a screenshot. Here's what it's of.
Don't look for the Communist News Network to have anything but praise for Marc Lamont Hill. After all, this is what they want America to look like.
Why do you think they want you disarmed if not for commie sense gun safety?

On Second Thought, Let It
“It’s a disaster,” Gail Reisman, a retired gerontologist and Toronto native who lives in Representative Dana Rohrabacher’s district, said after attending a candidate forum Tuesday. “If we have two Republicans running I think I’m going back to Canada.” [More]Gail: Door. Ass.
The Final Curtain
You won't find any gun shows in Saratoga Springs after this weekend when a measure to ban them on city properties goes into effect. [More]Shades of Great Western...
Timing it for Memorial Day weekend is no doubt a calculated insult.
So, gun and ammo companies: Are any of you going to step up and tell Saratoga Springs they won't arm their "Only Ones" through you?
