Money Talks
“Republicans are headed for extinction in the suburbs if they don’t distance themselves from the NRA. The GOP needs to put forth solutions to help eradicate the gun violence epidemic,” said Dan Eberhart, a Republican donor and oil-and-gas executive who supports President Donald Trump. [More]Interesting, how the search term Republican extinction suburbs is suddenly a thing.

At Least We're Finding Out Who Our Real Friends Are
“Here’s my message to Republicans; if you don’t do something here [on guns] you’re gonna get annihilated in the suburbs in 2019. [More]Here's my message to them: If you do something on guns you're gonna get annihilated.
If the Democrats take it all, do you really think they're going to get all the guns? Who thinks that will be the final word?
You won't find any real leadership from stool samples like this Republiquisling because you can tell from his pathetic arguments that he really never understood the Second Amendment to begin with. It just brought in a political constituency that frauds like him could exploit as long as it served their purposes until things got hot, and then it was time to bail.
Real leaders don't need to be cajoled by activists because they're the ones already taking a leadership role. Real leaders can educate constituencies and would never abandon or betray them. Real leaders do not preemptively surrender.
On a side note, since the link goes to a Virginia Democrat site, do I dare mention Jorge?

An Illinois Republican
Representative Adam Kinzinger (R., Ill.) on Monday advocated for federal legislation that would ban the sale of firearms to Americans under the age of 21 in response to the mass shootings that claimed 31 lives over the weekend. [More]The important thing is Grover likes him.

It's as Simple as 'You Don't Eat Your Own'
It seems to me that any rational person would intuit a connection between mental illness and mass killings. However, the anti-gun left wants to deny the connection so that all blame can be placed on guns and white supremacy ideology. [More]Well yeah. If they targeted violent nut jobs, they'd be going after their own constituencies.

Ginning Up the Mob
Democrat Joaquin Castro Publishes Hit List of Names and Businesses of Top Trump Donors in His City — Accuses Them of Fueling Racism, Opens Them Up to Assault [More]For whatever reason, Fox News still won't allow links from Blogger, but they're running the hoist-on-his-own-petard headline: "Joaquin Castro outed his own donors in bid to shame Trump supporters."
Democrat apologists are out there telling people this is no big deal, but I've seen times when revealing donor names did indeed result in scary consequences:
CAC and its supporters were harassed throughout the Roberti recall campaign. Death threats and intimidating phone calls were received. Break-ins occurred. Phone lines were cut. Supporters found their names printed in newspapers—along with insinuations that they were affiliated with white supremacists (Howard's maternal grandfather was a rabbi!)[Via Michael G]
Not What He Signed On For
BREAKING: Dell’Aquila Files Multi-Million Dollar Class Action Lawsuit Against Wayne LaPierre, NRA and NRA Foundation [More]On the bright side, Bill Brewer's billable hours ought to get a nice boost.
I haven't forgotten what the little bird told me when I was away but still need to find a way to be able to say more.
How About 'No'?
This means that at times citizens must give up parts of their liberty for the greater good. [More]Where have I heard that before?
Sure are a lot of self-identified "conservatives" jumping on the preemptive surrender bandwagon.

Welcome, Future Voters!
Responding to the fear that the Trump Administration might really cut the number of refugees to be admitted to the US in FY2020 (which begins on October 1, 2019) to zero, Senator James Lankford (R-OK) and Chris Coons (D-DE) spear-headed a letter to the Secretary of State saying they want the President to “increase” the number of refugees to be admitted. [More]Don't worry, I'm sure the admissions process will be rigorous.
Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."
Right, "saviors"?
That means you'll be able to give Marco and James the same grades as the people you say you're saving us from.
In Theory vs. In Practice
But if you want to know how this American version of China's social credit system would work in practice, let me remind you of how Veterans Affairs recklessly red-flags "disruptive" citizens without due process, transparency or accountability in the name of "safety." [More]Can't you just wait for the Republicans to include all gun owners?

Because Everything's Better with Government!
BulkMunitions Summer Ammo Giveaway [More]What a great way to celebrate a right that "shall not be infringed."
How fortunate we are to have servants to secure those rights!
And that's just to ship.
Props to our suppliers for all the hoops they have to jump through to bring us stuff we want that others don't want us to have. I worked for two decades helping companies navigate through regulatory compliance mazes and appreciate the effort that takes.
'Our' Diversity is Their Strength
Ballot harvesting, a surge of illegal aliens from the southern border and Middle Eastern ‘refugees’ resettled in Orange County by Obama has shifted the demographics dramatically. [More]Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."
Right, "saviors"?

How Do You Say 'Common Sense Gun Safety Laws' in Spanish?
Armed robbers have stolen more than $2m worth of gold coins from a vault that had been left open at a mint in Mexico City. [More]But...but...but...

Setting the Table
...“everything’s on the table.” [More]And appetites can grow.
UPDATE: It looks one of the side dishes is banning private sales, and the only reason he won't try for a semiauto ban is that he doesn't perceive enough support.
Give it one more particularly bloody incident and that'll change.

NRA Endorsed with NRA-PVF Rating: AIt's easy to see how he made Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington's bipartisan "Most Corrupt" list.
He evidently thinks he enjoys a big enough Republican advantage to betray those who believed the lies. Assuming a challenger who actually understands what the Second Amendment is about doesn't primary this poltroon out of office, any gun owner who nonetheless still votes for this political adulterer may as well just admit to being a willing cuckold. That's exactly the kind of "lesser of two evils" rationalization over the years that got us into this mess in the first damn place.
Besides, someone who pretends to be your friend and then betrays you so completely and profoundly is the greater evil.
Be nice if the title hashtag stuck...
Daddy's Little Girl
Ivanka Trump Demands Federal Gun Confiscation Law [More]When in her life has she not been protected by armed security, including and especially in places where you or I are prohibited by "law" from arming ourselves?
Messing with Debra
Debra Messing sparks outrage for agreeing with 'sick' tweet that said 'if I get killed in a mass shooting please cremate me and throw my ashes into Mitch McConnell’s and Dana Loesch’s eyes while I’m still smoldering' [More]Because we've already established, it is all about her.
I wonder if she's had a date yet.
As for the ashes, I have a better use for them.
Use Your Imagination
I’m still looking for my own version of America/ One without the gun... [More]Imagine a world without them.
