Good "school shooters" and not a Hogglet in the bunch...

The problem, of course, is they some of them bring the same nest-fouling proclivities with them.

Got Him By the Short Hairs

Defendant will plead guilty to Count Two of the Indictment, Possession of Stolen Firearm, in violation of Title 18, United States Code. Sections 922(j) and 924(a)(2). and Count Four of the Indictment. Theft of Government Property, in violation in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 641. [More]
I talked about this here.

His de facto co-conspirators, due to incompetence, laziness, and negligence, are the ATF facility managers. I speak from many years of past-life policy and procedure experience when I declare it's just not that hard to set up an effective theft deterrent system in secure stores.

A State of Arousal

And that was on display during Tuesday afternoons’s CNN Newsroom as host Brooke Baldwin and New Day’s Alisyn Camerota cheered the far-left activism of the Hogg family, hailed the March for Our Lives as having given them “goosebumps,” and pushing Australian-style mass gun confiscation to “fix” mass shootings...

We're the Only Ones Discretionary Enough

For better or worse, from the moment you’re pulled over, you’re at the mercy of law enforcement officers who have almost absolute discretion to decide who is a threat, what constitutes resistance, and how harshly they can deal with the citizens they were appointed to “serve and protect.” [More]

The Company She Kept

BOMBSHELL: Bayer discovers “black ops” division run by Monsanto, shuts it down, initiates internal investigation as law enforcement prepares criminal charges against the chemical giant [More]
That seems like kind of a hyperbolic claim, and I probably wouldn't have posted on this but for the where-there's smoke-there's-fire links from Reuters and Bayer.

Combine that with a touch of resume clean-up:


What did our "worst nightmare" know and when did she know it?

I see some perceive my waving this flag as an endorsement of lawsuit jury verdicts. It has never been about that for me and I've tried to make that clear. What this is about is the agendized hypocrisy of the"left," which supports those verdicts but gives Shannon a pass. I want the environmentalcases to start demanding answers. Loudly.

We're the Only Ones Criminal Enough

Forensic Experts Find 'No Evidence' That Houston Narcs Who Killed Dennis Tuttle and Rhogena Nicholas Encountered Gunfire As They Entered the House [More]
Incompetents. Frauds. Murderers. Liars.

And Therein Lies the Problem

But LaPierre retains a substantial amount of support from his board of directors. [More]
That is wholly enabled by eligible-to-vote members who either don't or who look no further than "Nominating Committee" manipulation and vote with the herd.

And the blindness to the end, exemplified by Carolyn Meadows' repudiations of insider critics, will further cripple the association as donations dry up.

UPDATE [Via Mack H]: This is what I'm talkin' about.

Keep Dreaming

It’s official. I am the @NRA’s worst nightmare.  [More]
Lady, you ain't even on the radar, especially with what's going on in Fairfax these days. Besides, like the saying goes, "I'm the NRA," and cowards who evade their past hardly impress.

It says quite a bit about you that the only responses we see to your absurd claim are from useful idiots, and the rest, well:


Without funding from your master, you're nothing but a loud-mouthed shrew.
