Of course, in order for this bill to pass, it needs to move through both houses. And nothing can move through the Senate unless the Senate Republicans return. Wilde, in his infinite stupidity, just gave them another reason not to. [More]More developments along the Oregon trail...

We're the Only Ones Pushy Enough
Tabarly can be seen on the store's surveillance camera footage pushing Wishah to the ground ... the same two officers returned to the supermarket the next day to seize surveillance video of the incident and persuade the owner to claim that he had wanted Wishah removed from the premises ... Tabarly remains on the Country Club Hills Police Department's roster, according to the Peace Officer Standards and Training division... [More]Oxymoronic in more ways than one...

Your Kind Isn't Welcome Here
What Difference Does It Make?
Showing My Age
I've been informed that Firesign Theater references like the one used here will not be familiar to most readers under 60. I understand and accept that. Nonetheless, it has been a tradition both at WoG and at Sipsey Street before Mike died. We were delighted to find we had that in common.
The rest will either be curious enough to learn more or it will be their loss. If I were worried about visitors not getting old cultural references, I'd have to retire all kinds of recurring characters, including Skip Coolzip, and Yul, and Fletcher, and Gomer, as well as can catchphrases like "Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town."
Good thing I do this for me. Still, I suppose I could offer refunds...

A Commonsense Totalitarian Safety Law
I was going through an old FOIA response to our "bump stock" queries and came across a copy of a Dianne Feinstein press release that pretty much distills Democrat (look who signed on) "gun control" down to the basics:
The only reason to fire so many rounds so fast is to kill large numbers of people ... The bill also contains exceptions for lawful possession of these devices by law enforcement and the government.Any questions?
If Only They Would Disarm You and Me...
Polin told the group to leave, but they returned about 10 minutes later and confronted him. A 16-year-old from the group allegedly pulled out a handgun and shot a round into the ceiling, Dyer said. Polin tried wrestling the gun from the teen, but the teen pulled away and shot him several times... [More]Oh, those kooky "teens."
This is a job for universal background checks, red flag laws, and "assault weapon" bans!
No?
On the bright side, at least the kid is old enough to be a "gunsense voter"...
Boiling Point
In re the subject of today's AmmoLand piece, War on Guns Correspondent Florida Guy asks about statutory authority for enforcers to make arrests, and whether that could be a basis for things boiling over.
It looks like what Brown's Brownshirts will be deployed under is from Article IV of the Oregon Constitution:Section 12. Quorum; failure to effect organization. Two thirds of each house shall constitute a quorum to do business, but a smaller number may meet; adjourn from day to day, and compel the attendance of absent members. A quorum being in attendance, if either house fail to effect an organization within the first five days thereafter, the members of the house so failing shall be entitled to no compensation from the end of the said five days until an organization shall have been effected.and this:
2013 ORS 181.050¹ Duty to enforce laws and regulations of agenciesNoting how, like a typical tyrant, Brown disregards laws she opposes (including and especially "the supreme Law of the Land"), I'd say things could still boil over.
The state police, with the approval of the Governor, may be called upon by any other branch or department of the state government to enforce criminal laws or any regulation of such branch or department. [Amended by 1971 c.58 §1]
Half-Baked Arguments
In this difficult moment, we hope that Oberlin students are not discouraged from continuing the kind of sustained and brave activism that emerged following the initial November 2016 incident at Gibson’s. [More]Yes, let's allow grant recipients to shoplift with impunity and then smear their victims as racist fascists to destroy the longtime family business the owners have invested generations of their lives in!

Guilt by Accusation
“I asked the gentleman who served me the papers how he was doing,” O’Gorman said. “He said, ‘I’m fine, but you might not be as well as you think you are.’ Then he handed me an abatement notice.” [More]What's the "gentleman's" name?
And how did things get this way?

How to Take Back the 2nd Amendment...in Deep Blue States!
This has much useful practical application for all non-urban dominated counties. Thing is, it will require gun owners getting involved and doing some work.
Identifying good likely areas and officials, and then mobilizing members to help, sounds like the perfect coordinated effort for state gun groups. Do you know if yours will show leadership in this?
Who better to find out than you?

Oregon ‘Militia Threat’ has all the Markings of a Smear Job against Gun Owners
Some citizens, including “Oregon Three Percenters,” were planning a protest. True to form, gun owners who will not comply with disarmament edicts are being portrayed as “anti-government extremists.” That’s despite the fact that they are the ones calling for rights abusers and infringers to obey the Constitution and observe the entire Bill of Rights. [More]Making it known that you will not go gentle into that good night scares totalitarian wannabes. Good.
