Texas Tech Police Confirm Campus Carry Keeps School Safer


Advocates for gun owner rights as well as experience from truly forward-thinking colleges that do not ban possessing the means of defense could have told them that. Still, it’s nice to see such admissions coming from the campus cops, especially with all the anti-gun hysteria and artificially ginned-up ridicule against the idea of a “good guy with a gun.” [More]
Now what are those who demand "Only Ones" exclusivity going to argue?

On the Wrong Track

Durkan’s office also said on Tuesday that “concurrently with KPMG’s review” they’d learned the new streetcars, ordered in the fall for the expanded system, are bigger than the city’s current streetcars, raising questions about how they would fit with existing tracks and maintenance garages. [More]
Fortunately, it's not their money.

"Progressive" urban government. Is it any wonder we love it so?

Hatemonger

... the Oath Keepers, a white supremacist organization ... [More]
Demonstrably a lie. Not only can he produce no statements from the organization supporting that absurd and hateful libel, all one needs do is consult the longstanding Bylaws to see:
Section 8.02. Restrictions on Membership:
(b) No person who advocates, or has been or is a member, or associated with, any organization, formal or informal, that advocates discrimination, violence, or hatred toward any person based upon their race, nationality, creed, or color, shall be entitled to be a member or associate member.
Since this smears everyone involved with OK as a "white supremacist" and feeds a subversive meme perpetuated by SPLC, I wouldn't mind seeing a libel lawsuit over this -- not so much for a monetary settlement as for a court-ordered public apology that could be used in perpetuity whenever such baseless charges are made again.

Planned Obsolescence

By denying firearms developed after the exclusionary "roster" was imposed, the People are effectively being denied "ordinary military equipment" suitable for "common defense" that is in "common use."

Right?

A Cry for Help

A new report detailing the Feb. 14 shooting massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School reveals the 19-year-old killer asked officials for help months prior to the attack — but the school district denied him the assistance he requested. [More]
I'm wondering why there are redactions in the report. Isn't it fair to wonder why, and who that benefits and/or protects?

Assuming the goal is to determine truth and rational correective actions, as opposed to come up with ways to exploit a situation enabled by bad policy in order to enact more controls...

'Rally in Tally'

After Action Report of Tallahassee Gun Rally and the Anti-Gun Rally too. [More]
I got stuck on the first photo-- first, it reminded me of Mike, and then I flashed on a Sascha Baron Cohen-style setup video where Hogg let someone with a thick accent leaving heavy-handed clues about his citizenship ineligibility register to vote anyway.

We're the Only Ones Defacing Enough

The shocking moment an off-duty NYPD sergeant, 40, shoots a 21-year-old love-rival in the FACE during an argument and then 'tries to plant a knife on him' is captured on security cameras [More]
More trustworthy than you...

Ah, justice is served:
Blake has been stripped of his gun and badge and is currently being investigated.
More privileged, too.

In fairness, the guy lifted more than a finger, at least with Sweetie-Pie.

Now there's gotta be a way we can pin this on racists and the NRA to advance a "progressive" narrative...

An Enemy of the People

NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo on claim he may put NRA out of business: “I would like to believe it’s true” [More]
It's not "the NRA," but what (who) the group represents.

Hypocrite and a tyrant Cuomo wants his enforcers to put YOU "out of business" if you don't obey him and disarm.

Invasion by Infraction

Instead, Nowrasteh suggests abolishing criminal prosecutions of unauthorized border crossing, instead treating such an act as an infraction on par with something like a parking ticket.  [More]
And what does Nowrasteh -- and Reason, which is deliberately perpetuating a logical fallacy by extrapolating for the whole from isolated and heart-tugging exceptional anecdotes -- suggest we do about this...?

UPDATE: WFTV did OK on this one, something sure to irk the gun-grabbers. But it doesn't help when the "Only Ones" refer to the perp as a "victim."
