Jojo Krako Commonsense Safety Laws

This is not about gun control. This is about firearm injury and death prevention. [More]

Who's controllin'? We're preventin'.

Who's interferin'? We're takin' over.

A True Con-servative

Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., in his opening remarks, sought to play down fears of second amendment infringement. [More]

That's because the guy's a pro who understands:

“The confidence game — the con — is an exercise in soft skills. Trust, sympathy, persuasion. The true con doesn’t force us to do anything; he makes us complicit in our own undoing. He doesn’t steal. We give.”

That's why his shills work the crowd. Gun owners will continue giving him their support and votes as he gets the states to do his dirty work, maintaining the illusion that his hands are clean.

Flat Iron

Breast ironing awareness 'needed in school' [More]

Didn't used to be, until somebody decided western civilization needed to be brought down several pegs...

Besides, if we're going to be inclusive and vibrant, I thought we were supposed to celebrate our differences. How dare we impose our racist cultural privilege mores on our Wakandan superiors?

Our diverse titties are our strength!

The People Have Spoken!

Ohio adults strongly favor a ban on high-powered rifles such as the AR-15, statewide polling has once again found. [More]

What are the criteria to determine how much they know about the reasons behind the right to keep and bear arms?

I do note some comment posters seem to not know who uses "high power."

No, Nothing Toxic About this 'Masculinity'...

Plymouth Meeting’s Men-Only Group Aims To Heal Through Power Of Cuddling [More]

Enemies foreign and domestic smile...

"Kevin"

Please Note:

Most men experience some level or arousal during cuddling. This is completely normal...we're all guys. We just ignore it. There is no shame here!

Any questions?

As Seen on Drudge

Wish I'd written that...

Rally 'round the Flag, Boys!

[More]

If there's a rally near you, it might be a useful place to meet some like minds, to network and recruit.

Just beware of teajackers.

One of AOC's Constituents?

A Brooklyn man was nabbed by the NYPD for strolling through Bedford-Stuyvesant with a loaded AR-15 style rifle that was sticking out of a piece of rolling luggage he was pulling along, prosecutors charge. [More]

I knew there was a reason you and I can't be trusted with such rifles.

[Via Jess]

Well That Was Fast

U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts on Tuesday rejected a bid by gun rights activists to put on hold a ban by President Donald Trump's administration on "bump stock" gun attachments that enable semi-automatic weapons to be fired rapidly. [More]

Not that I expected any different from him...

[Via Bear]

UPDATE: So much for all that apologia and wishful thinking.

What's Playing

Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on Gun Legislation [Watch]

I guess "A"-rated Lindsey decided the same day the "bump stock ban" went into effect would be a pretty good time to keep the momentum going.

These are your rights these people are presuming authority over.

How to Sell Camel Dung

The NRA's playbook on mass shootings came to light during the course of a three-year undercover sting by Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit. Rodger Muller, an Australian undercover reporter who infiltrated the gun lobbies in the US and Australia, used a hidden camera to record a series of meetings between representatives of the NRA and One Nation in Washington, DC in September last year. [More]

"Investigative Unit ... undercover reporter ... infiltrated..."

Oooh! Professional!

And what did their "sting" actually reveal, aside from the Captain Obvious fact that professional PR teams have strategies and talking points that are fine-tuned based on effectiveness and exposing the weaknesses of the other side?

I'd be more interested in why Islamic propagandists financed by an Emir are so interested in disarming Americans, and what would happen if a U.S. journalist published reports in Qatar designed to turn citizens against their traditions and beliefs.

I Hate to Be a Wet Blanket, But...

The good news is that you can join the Firearms Policy Foundation for as little as $1 and be covered by their blanket stay. [More]

We're having a bit of a discussion on the likelihood of late-comers being included over on my Facebook page.

Once Upon a Time

"Chief Storyteller" sounds so much warmer than "Reich Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda," don't you think? [More]

Hey, it's not their money.

[Via cydl]

As Opposed to BAD 'Gun Control'

"There's no such thing as unlicensed gun dealers," Baker said. "They're called felons. If you're breaking the law, you should be prosecuted and punished." [More]

Yeah, enforce existing gun laws!

Right?

A Panel of Experts

A doctor on the panel says she feels that gun violence is a public health issue ... Many on the panel agreed it`s not about getting rid of guns altogether, but about more responsible guns laws ... The police department has gun locks available for residents... [More]

Well, I'm glad we've got that problem solved!

[Via bondmen]

We're the Only Ones Discriminated Against Enough

Former Chief of Police says resignation was forced, racially motivated [More]

It obviously couldn't have had anything to do with her.

[Via bondmen]

“They literally accused the president of the United States of being an agent for a foreign government. That’s equivalent to treason. That’s punishable by death in this country,” she said on NBC’s “Today” show, referring to Democrats and the media. [More]
