No Surprise

Who do you think Virginia's first "commonsense gun safety laws" were aimed at?  Ditto the targets for abortion?

With a Knick-Knack Paddy Whack, Give a Dog the Bone

Documents say Patterson and his wife, Christina, had the front toenails of a male dog removed in order to more easily engage in sex acts with the animal. [More]

I may have to expand the law...

Using gun-grabber "logic," if you own a dog, you're just not a dog rapist yet.

And you gotta wonder what kind of desperate woman would allow her daughter to be subjected to this sick animal, which also makes me wonder how we can make it up to him for "injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect."

What a world.

Moral Disability

Now “a labor arbitrator has ordered the Regional Municipality of Waterloo to give DS her job back, and to compensate her financially for her unfair dismissal, including general damages for ‘injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect.’ [More]

Can compensation for all crimina... uh... ethically disadvantaged be far behind?

Things Not as They Appear?

‘They Did Not Deal Drugs’: Neighbors of Slain Couple Who Shot 4 Cops Refute Official Story [More]

And the raiding party was in plain clothes...?

Caveat: I do not know the truth of this. I pass it on hoping it will spur demands for investigations to lead to the truth.

I do note Dean Weingarten has a question.

Curious though, if it is true, how we're not getting this from the DSM.

Maybe it's not their scoop?

'Triggers' is Right

Pink’s 7-year-old daughter goes shooting with dad; video on Instagram triggers debate [More]

We're the Only Ones Surprising Enough

We're the Only Ones Intentional Enough

Judge Roither listed what he believes were “intentional” acts as described in the probable cause statement. “Unholstering the firearm – an intentional action. Loading it – intentional action. Reloading it – intentional action. Pointing it – intentional,” Roither said." [More]

I won't be surprised to find out it was intentional murder.

What do you think our bond would be?  Just in case any of us decide a game of Russian Roulette with "Only Ones" sounds like a plan...?

We're the Only Ones Hauling It In Enough

Full Frontal Assault

A ballot measure to ban modern firearms and feeding devices, and make thousands of Oregon residents criminals, has been filed with the Oregon Secretary of State. [More]

So what level of "compromise" would be "reasonable"?

Don't Forget Door Number Three

Are U.S. troops necessary over there – to prevent terrorists from coming over here? Or are they over here – because we are over there? [More]

They're "over here" because "we" let them be.

Speaking of an Unpalatable Alternative

This is the problem with our politics today. Both sides have decided that the way to win is no longer to persuade those in the middle, but rather to throw red meat to their hardcore supporters and get them more worked up than those on the other side. Lost in the shuffle are millions of reasonable, persuadable citizens who are left to choose between two unpalatable alternatives. [*]

And this is a problem with "moderates" today: They either naively or fraudulently attribute moral equivalence to evil ideas, with proponents eager to accept any inroad from which to launch their next assault, and to principled ideas, for which no "compromise" is possible without surrendering freedom.

Blessings of Liberty are not secured by the Marc Theissens of the world. Here's what he would have us persuaded to believe "reasonable":

If allowed, Schultz will impose on the Republic the same immigration policy Reagan destroyed California with, and ban semi-autos.

Nonetheless, I do hope the guy runs third party for the obvious reason.
