Like a Kid in a Candy Store

Epstein victim testified Bill Clinton visited 'Orgy Island' [More]
Of course he did. And he did plenty more than visit. And Hillary knew about it and it's part of the deal that they could each do whichever girls they wanted but just keep a low profile...

Those First 13 Words

Maybe we should reinvigorate the concept of a militia in our great nation, if only to annoy liberals. [More]
Maybe we should do it for our survival.

2020 is Trump's to Blow with Gun Owners - By David Codrea [More]
Amazing how many read headlines and then infer with belligerent certainty what something is about. I'm also finding out all kinds of stuff about myself, my politics and my motives I never knew.

I see some wondering which poster I am and what screen name I post under. I'm not and I don't. I have neither the time nor the patience to put up with most of what I see represented on forums and I do things and will face all -- even bold chatroom warriors with avatars -- openly and under my own name.

The only reason I found out about this is because I have a Google alert set up on my name to see how my work is propagating and also to see if any lies are being told about it or me that I can exploit.

Feel Free to Speak Freely Up to the Point Where We Sic the Cops on You

Virginia Beach employee fired, charged after confrontation with supervisor following mass shooting [More]
No threat was made so a police response was way out of line. So was firing her in the first place if what is being related is all she said and did. 

If so, she's right about Wendy Swallow. I also think many teachers and administrators do their share of fueling "school shooter" rage.

The Clarence Thomas Effect [More]
A surprisingly fair and balanced article from The Atlantic...

Speaking of Dangerous Blows



We don't even need to know what the issue they're swindling for funds is. That they use the insidious term "our democracy" and that it comes from the League of Women Voters should be enough.

If you have a "progressive" partner in your life who actively undermines the freedom "of ourselves and our Posterity," consider your options for doing to her what I'm going to do with this envelope.

Dang, and recycling pickup was yesterday.

Will History Repeat Itself?

Ross Perot really did make George H.W. Bush lose reelection [More]
And Poppy made it possible.

Watch Justin Amash go for a repeat performance.

And ditto.

I Know You are, But What am I?

House Democrats Use Photo From Obama Administration To Promote Investigation Into ‘Inhumane Treatment’ At The Border [More]
Oops...

We're the Only Ones Qualifiedly Immune Enough

In conclusion, we hold that Vickers is entitled to qualified immunity because, at the time of the incident giving rise to this appeal, there was no clearly established law making it apparent to any reasonable officer in Vickers’s shoes that his actions in firing at the dog and accidentally shooting SDC would violate the Fourth Amendment. [More]
Read the thread here. The "extensive history of using unnecessary, excessive force" is not unexpected.

Neither is this.

UPDATE: David French writes something I agree with.

Let the Punishment Fit the Crime

The woman who fired a handgun Tuesday outside a Parkville License Office in Platte County, Missouri, has been charged with making a terrorist threat and unlawful use of a weapon. [More]
Now that's what I'm talkin' about!

Hell Hath No Fury

Apparently she took the guns to pawn just like the other things she stole. Can it get any better than that? Yes, it can. [More]
Ya gotta wonder how many MILMs are motivated by bitterness, revenge and spite.

No Solution Here

Chris Cox is immediately re-instated and elevated to CEO and Executive Vice President; [More]
Are you people out of your minds?

We're the Only Ones Short-Fused Enough

Scott Hacker, 39, was charged with fourth-degree domestic assault and unlawful use of a weapon, both misdemeanors. The assault came during an argument that started over neighbors shooting fireworks, prosecutors said. [More]
So there's that superior judgment and professionalism we've been hearing so much about.

Is it fair to wonder what you or I would be charged with?

We're the Only Ones First Responding Enough

Farhner, of Kingston, Missouri, was driving himself to the emergency room at the Kansas City VA Medical Center in May 2018 because of an infection from a hernia surgery he’d had there. A VA Police officer stopped him because he was going the wrong way in the parking lot. An argument ensued, and one or two officers took Farhner to the ground, according to a suit filed by his family. He was semi-conscious when he got to the emergency room and was transferred to the University of Kansas Hospital, where he died two days later at age 66. [More]
How were they supposed to know a guy driving himself to emergency might be in agony and desperate, with no time or tolerance for being harassed and prevented from getting help, and with more urgent things than hospital parking lot rules on his mind?

But it's OK: The Queen will handle things from here.

On the bright side, he didn't suffer a seizure so they didn't have to take him out on the spot.

We're the Only Ones Planting Enough

Former Florida officer allegedly planted drugs during traffic stops, 'tailored' body cam video [More]
There's something to be said for public crucifixions...

Except the way things work, there'd be an "Only Ones" exemption.

The War on Books

And so the library becomes the anti-library. [More]
Life imitates art:


Hey, with "progressives," every day is Opposite Day. And face it, what's your average public library worker but an Eloi?
