We're the Only Ones Off Roster Enough



What, nobody thought elitist exemptions would lead to corruption and abuse? Since when has that not been the rule, rather than the exception?

Like this:

Bastards. They'd put me and you away for life.

He Went to Jared

Jared Kushner is intensely lobbying for leading congressional Republicans to adopt a pro-mass immigration platform ahead of the 2020 election, according to reports that surfaced Wednesday. [More]
This and guns, Trump. This and guns.

You'd better be asking yourself how many elections Jared has won, and even if anybody likes him.

Which reminds me... did they ever find Peewee's bicycle?

The Wrong Question

How John Roberts killed the census citizenship question [More]
Some of us are more interested in "why."

Don't Think of Them as Felonies. Think of Them as Resume Enhancers

United States Attorney for the District of Columbia Jessie K. Liu has recommended moving forward with charges for fired Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe after he lied under oath multiple times to federal investigators.  [More]
Wait a minute -- I thought those qualifications are what got him hired...

Adds New Meaning to 'Living Will'

In other words, the patient was deemed no longer competent to want to stay alive. [More]
So would that theoretically make killing your would-be murderer in self-defense illegal?

You Wouldn't Like Us when We're Angry

“I’m getting very angry about the silliness of these questions,” an animated Pelosi continued... [More]
Not as angry as some of us are getting at the treasonous and presumptuous offensiveness of your "answers," hag.

The Greatest Threat

CNN: Right-wingers are America's 'deadliest terrorists' if you exclude 9/11 [More]
Nice "out." Not.

Now define "right-wingers." Because anyone who rejects the individual principles articulated in the Bill of Rights, and deprives others of life and liberty without legitimate authority and full due process, is no member of any ideological tribe I hang with.

Such killers, by default, are collectivists.

This lying useful idiot is simply trying to smear by projection and conflation to advance the Marxist-advancing "White man bad" manipulation.

A-servin' of 'er Majesty the Queen

The battle of Saragarhi: when 21 Sikh soldiers stood against 10,000 men [More]
Kind'a makes you wonder what the f*** is wrong with Gurbir, doesn't it?

It also makes me wonder what "we're" doing in the middle of a centuries-old unf***able mess created by others.

Again.

UPDATE: Wynn A sends some excellently informative supplemental reading on recent history. Sure are a lot of obnoxious naysayers in comments.

For Now...

But...but...but...

Maybe this latest development will trigger more frustrated misfit(s) desperate for recognition and precipitate that changing.

We're the Only Ones High-Flying Enough

Gov. Larry Hogan on Tuesday pledged $21 million to help fight crime in Baltimore and endorsed the use of a controversial surveillance plane to fly over the city recording the movements of people and vehicles below. In a letter to Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young, Hogan also said he authorized up to 10 Maryland State Police helicopter crews to staff their own flights over the city and urged city officials to set a goal of reducing homicides to below 200 a year. [More]
Any bets that the violence won't continue to soar?

Another Trap to Set

Reed: Require gun dealers to tell police when would-be buyer fails federal background check [More]
Is it fair to wonder how many of his constituents get their guns through FFLs? Besides, what are the odds of a false positive when weighed against SWAT making it home at the end of their shift?

Who thinks it's really about background checks?

So Much for Strict 'Gun Control'

This week, authorities have confirmed that two fully-automatic weapons were recovered at the scene, explaining extensive damage to several law enforcement vehicles and the reports that the shooter kept law enforcement pinned down by “a barrage of gunfire” during the shootout. [More]
Sounds like he thanked someone for his service.

Refugee Gratitude

Here's the star of our show!
Nigerian-born rap artist Jesse Ekene Nweke Conable called for his fans to “shoot” white people while urging, “Take them as slaves and treat them even worse.” [More]
Then there's this:
In their report, Samhällsnytt writes that the Instagram account Barasvarta (“Blacks only”) is open only to blacks and enjoys several hundred followers. The account is run by Conable and has slogans like “Black Power in Sweden” and “Fuck White People”.
Instagram? Isn't that owned by Zuckerberg's Facebook? You know, the folks with "community standards"...?

Y'know, you racist "conservative" fascists really need to tone down the rhetoric.

And turn in those guns.

Pathetic


[More]
But some of the comments are hysterical.

She and those with incentives to still back her are up to something, trying to emphasize how routine and "boring" the emails were -- sure, the ones she didn't find necessary to destroy.  It feels like she knows something is coming down and she needs to get in front of it.

As an aside, I didn't find The Onion's Subtember 11 commemoration anywhere near as offensive as this.

Mote and Beam

A Los Angeles deputy city attorney fatally shot his wife and 19-year-old son before turning the gun on himself at the family's Northridge home on Wednesday morning, authorities said. [More]
Looks like "Der" was trying to grab guns from the wrong people.
