Looks Like We've Met Our Match

Update: Man Who Violently Assaulted Pro-Life Activist Identified, FIRED From Job [More]
He sees himself as a hero and a civil rights legend.*

And a kung fu master.*

And more:*
pro- choice warrior and a part of the #resistance I stand up to the evils of Trump, Nazis, Conservatives, the 2nd amendment and Capitalism.
Damn. I give up.

What chance would any of us have against someone who telegraphs his move and misses his target?


Amazing -- Opposite Day "progressive men" justifying assaulting women.

*Fake Twitter account? If so it's funny and doesn't alter the core truths of this story.

Outside the Bubble

He emphasized that as we launched into our careers, having experiences outside of medicine would provide much-needed perspective and change of mental gears. He reminded us that as busy physicians we would need to come up for air occasionally and get a look around at the real world. I have found that the shooting sports and associated comaraderie provide me with such friends and social support. [More]
Not to mention an occasional free consultation and prescription.

It's the Rape Victim's Fault!

“One of the most reasonable take-homes is that … when police are less often in situations in which they might reasonably fear that a gun is going to be pulled, they’re less likely to react with the use of lethal force,” Aaron Kivisto, the study’s lead author, previously told me. [More]
If only you were disarmed, we wouldn't have to shoot you!

And I see the liars at Vox are still using the old "industrialized countries" deception, the one that conveniently omits inconvenient countries that don't support their narrative.

Heidi Ho

Democratic Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (N.D.) said on Thursday that she will oppose Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. [More]

Where are You Gettin' These Units of Measurement From?

People came out in droves Saturday to the Sunnyvale Presbyterian Church and turned in unwanted handguns and rifles in exchange for cash. [More]
276 = how many droves? And how many spates are in a drove?

A hammock of cake...

The Company They Keep

According to Legistorm, he worked for U.S. Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) and previously worked for Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA). He previously worked or was an intern with the office of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-CA, according to Fox News. A September 2018 letter from Sheila Jackson Lee (D -TX) identified him as a staffer for her office at that time. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee is a member of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee. (A different person working for Hassan was the intern suspended for shouting F*** you at President Donald Trump recently.) [More]
Yeah, but if you go after Sheila, what'll happen to the Mars Program?

Teaching Tolerance

“If there is no intent to harm anyone — no one was hurt, no one was threatened — that might be a situation where the hearing officer would look at: What has the history of this student been?” Whiteman said. [More]
Good.

No one size fits all.

Down in Mexico, Where the Peppers Grow

As a cartel war rages in Tijuana, a total of 215 homicides were tallied there in September. [More]

The Mad Rapist

“They forced me to go into the backseat and took 2 turns raping me several times each." [More]
Well that's all every Hillary voter in the country needs to convict the man.

The scary thing is, those people serve on juries.


Thou Shalt Not Suffer a Witch to Live

The vilification tactic is a form of psychological terrorism. Furthermore, because the fury displayed by those leveling the charges is so relentless and uncompromising, it carries its own threat. Sometimes people act on it and it becomes actual terrorism. [More]
Life imitates art.

We're the Only Ones Partnering Enough

ATF Special Agent in Charge, Marcus Watson remarked, “ATF’s Crime Gun Intelligence will leverage investigative resources combined with the community partnerships to solve this violent criminal act.” [More]
Yeah, we talked about the theft and recovery here, but I've been asked who these community partners are that Marcus is talking about.

You know: CIs and provocateurs.

NRA Country

TALK SHIT ABOUT THE NRA IN COUNTRY MUSIC AND GET YOUR CAREER ENDED APPARENTLY [More]

But talk conservatism in Hollywood and see where that gets you.

A Foregone Conclusion

Living in Fear

CHICAGO LOCAL LEADER MURDERED, JEWISH COMMUNITY IN SHOCK, FEAR [More]
Well gee, fellas...

You don't have to live that way.

But if you choose to, I insist you leave me out of it.

Creatures of Legend

Time and time again, I have pointed out how pro-gun Democrats are a thing. They exist. They may be rare, but they’re not mythical. [More]
Name one.

I'll find something else they've done that undermines it.
