And This Sends What Message?

It was Ted Nugent's management that made the decision to not allow guns into the show. The Berglund Center said because it is city owned, it can't keep guns out unless the performers are the ones who request it, and that it was actually in Nugent's contract all along, but was in a sub-contract between Nugent and his promoter that wasn't shared with Berglund Center management until the last minute.

Why doesn't that suprise me?

Incontinence Panties Needed for Press Card-Toting Iowans

Liability, transparency and accountability needed for gun-toting Iowans [More]
Just the"legal" ones, right?

If things went down as stated, why this guy wasn't charged does seem pretty baffling.  But that hardly means the rest of us need to have our rights infringed and our privacy invaded just to satisfy a bunch of indignant Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists who don't know the difference between fragments and shrapnel.

That Would Make a Great Companion Video

Leonardo Alcivar, Rep. Stefanik's campaign manager, claimed that the emergence of the video caused Szustak to create a public scene on an Amtrak train. In a tweet with the hashtag #EpicAcelaMeltdown, Alcivar said Szustak was screaming about the video for an hour and a half. [More]
The thing is, Stefanik deserves some uncomfortable public exposure herself.

Culture Shock

That’s why opposition to large-scale Muslim immigration into Europe (or America) also has little or nothing to do with xenophobia, racism (Muslim is not a race anyway) or nativism. It has to do with changing European values. Large-scale Muslim immigration to Europe will do to Europe’s values what large-scale northern-state immigration has done to Florida and what large-scale European immigration did to the native culture of North America. [More]
First of all,if you subscribe to the Bering Strait land bridge theory, there are no "native Americans." But the point is ceded and recalls an argument I've made before:
What I would admit to is being a culturist and an ideologist, noting that some cultures and ideologies are superior at encouraging individualism, liberty, prosperity and innovation over others.

Company Aims to Bypass ‘Build Party’ Restrictions by Offering Nonprofit Classes


A gun parts entrepreneur believes he has found a way around restrictions that shot down so-called “build parties” in which machine shops would be used to convert “80% lower receivers” into firearms.  Stephen Bozich, has created Armed & Safe Firearm Training Academy, and proposes conducting classes as a way around government-defined “engaged in the business” proscriptions.

The IRS says it's OK. What will ATF say?

Evolved, Opposite Day 'Progressive'-Style

Comments are disabled for this video. [More]
Well, yeah. You don't want to make them cry.

Redefining terms is an old power-grab tactic.  But they have to go beyond that in their Opposite Day "inclusiveness" by excluding traditional definitions as "toxic."

Thus the only acceptable "male" is self-neutered. Until such time as the useful idiots become useless eaters...

Boom Times

"A bowling ball WHAT?!"  That's the reaction of most people who first see or hear about bowling ball mortars.  Yes, they really do shoot and can launch a bowling ball almost a mile, or a much shorter distance (depending on the powder and angle of elevation).  This is important  if you don't have a long field to shoot in. You can easily drop a bowling ball inside 200 yards. [More]
Yeah, I know-- you don't need it to hunt deer.

A Fair Question


From WarOnGuns Correspondent Dave Licht in re an email he received from a manufacturer about its sale on "state compliant mags":
Instead of advertising to me every day to buy state compliant mags why don’t these companies cut off police in states that restrict my right to use their standard capacity products?
À la Barrett. Just sayin’
No argument from me...

The Man Who Would Be King

Nationalism and tribalism are resurgent, barriers are being raised and borders reinforced and Soros is confronting the possibility that the goal to which he has devoted most of his wealth and the last chapter of his life will end in failure. [More]

We're the Only Ones Indemnified Enough

The chief said he knows his officers who were acting in good faith may not be criminally charged for shooting an innocent person during such a pursuit, but he would expect to be sued and probably lose the civil suit in court. [More]

We're the Only Ones Submerged Enough

The state of Missouri has revoked the peace officer license of a former highway patrol trooper who was driving a patrol boat when a handcuffed Iowa man fell out and drowned. [More]
Naturally he wants to keep his career afloat so his lawyer is trying to buoy up that sinking feeling with an appeal.

Sentiment Behind Trump Throat-Cutting ‘Artwork’ Extends to His Supporters


It’s not possible to hate a man like this and not hate those he represents. Issue advocacy voters elected Donald Trump because what he pledged in his campaign resonated with their values and the direction they’re determined to see the country move in. Those who would destroy that vision must first destroy its proponents. [More]
