It's Easy Enough to Grasp

“I don’t understand how you can begin to suggest a half a million dollar donation at this time,” Sam Scarfino said. [More]

Oh I see -- you were making a point.

Insult to Injury

The corporate owners of the Mandalay Bay casino filed suit against the victims of last year’s Las Vegas concert mass shooting, claiming it has no liability for the massacre... [More]

What Could Go Wrong?

But it's OK because:
Baker also ordered the 34-year-old to “surrender all firearms to the Limestone County Sheriff’s Office” and that he “possess no firearms of any kind until further order of court.”
No?

We're the Only Ones Black-Listing Enough

“If they have burglaries that are open cases that are not solved yet, if you see anybody black walking through our streets and they have somewhat of a record, arrest them so we can pin them for all the burglaries,” former officer Anthony De La Torre told investigators in 2014. “They were basically doing this to have a 100% clearance rate for the city.” [More]
Speaking of a blacklist, guess what the very first city claimed in Florida is?

Little Big Boss would approve.

The Medium is the Message

How Entertainment Shows Have Become Vehicles for Gun Control Propaganda [More]

Spoken Like a True 'Progressive'

Bill Clinton Staffer Wants to ‘Beat The Crap Out Of Rand Paul’ [More]
Oh look: Erasing history.

What a "progressive" idea.

I've met Sen. Paul.  He's a pretty small guy. But he strikes me as disciplined and having a steel core.

I know where I'd put MY money.

Stealing Birthrights

CU Boulder students join effort to fight Boulder’s new assault weapon ban [More]
That's forward-thinking and progressive (with no need for quotation marks this time).

Compare to:

The Nuclear Option

'It Turns Out Philip was Correct'?

It was an attack on gun-rights leaders and it was done in a similar fashion to "Borat." Besides Philip, Sasha Baron Cohen tricked, lied to, and set up a host of people, including Larry Pratt, Trent Lott, Dana Rohrabacher, Joe Wilson, and Joe Walsh.  [More]
Sorry, but if you know there's a trap, why walk into it so thoroughly? Selective editing and playing along cannot explain away this:


I talked about this yesterday -- and its Alinsky Rule 5 implications -- with Mark Walters on Armed American Radio.

Mark is correct. It's an uncomfortable conversation. I wish those prompting it had not made it necessary.

Because Today's the Day the Teddy Bears Have Their Picnic

“What stunned me is the number of positive calls I’ve received and 85 to 90 percent have come from women,” Smith says. [More]
Why does that not surprise me?

And "Dame" Jane Goodall's involved? I wonder if this was her idea...
