Don't Get Your Hopes Up

President Trump Reaches Agreement With Mexico To Stem Flow Of Illegal Guns [More]
So they're sealing the border?

A Newly-Prohibited Person

Trybus was found guilty on two felony hate crime counts. [More]
For what? Being drunk, ignorant, rude and expressing his opinion?

He never touched the woman, he didn't cuss...

This qualifies as a "hate crime"? And a felony gets him a lifetime disability for a fundamental right...?

The Hunt


There is no indication the cadet poses a threat to the public, but he may be a danger to himself. [More]
You guys sure reporting him to the authorities is a good idea?

Says the Guy Damning Them

Democratic Gov. Tony Evers says Republican legislative leaders who oppose gun control bills that polls show enjoy broad public support are essentially telling the public to "go to hell." [More]
Pure projection: "The people" are the ones whose right to keep and bear arms "shall not be infringed." But to paraphrase Rhett Butler, witless cheeseheads in WI elevating conmen like Evers to positions of power so he can swindle them out of their birthright should be told to go to hell, and often, and by someone who knows how.

Cost/Benefit Trade-Off

“If we do these things and it saves one life, don’t you think it’s worth it?”  [More]
Well, let's see. How many lives will be lost, you sanctimonious fool?

An Actual National Security Threat

The country is on a trajectory toward warlordism reminiscent of, say, 1930s China or its own 1910s. Some of those warlords will be the cartels. Some of them will be virtuous local forces genuinely on the side of order and justice—for example the autodefensa citizen militias of Michoacán. Some of them will be the official state, grasping for what it can. Some of them, given sufficient time, will be autonomous or even secessionist movements: look to Chiapas, Morelia, et al., for that.  [More]
Not to worry--I'm sure all the warmongers will demand the "solution" they're screaming for in Syria.

No?

You mean it better serves the agenda to up the number of refugees by an order of magnitude?

You May be a Badge Licker if...

ARE YOU A BADGE LICKER ? [More]
I'd add any gun owner who says "Enforce existing gun laws."

Welcome to the Party, Pals

Jamaal Bowman, a New York City congressional candidate endorsed by Justice Democrats, has proposed taking guns from police officers in American cities. [More]
I'm just remembering how many became vocal demanding reciprocity for the rest of us after they got their LEOSA seat at the table.

Properly Welcoming 'Refugees'

CIVIL WAR 2020: Home Defense Setup / Survivalism | Prepping for Collapse [Watch]
Have you thought of your unique situation?

And with Friends Like These...

The head of the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association said the sale of ghost guns is a growing problem. “These '80 percent' guns are providing a way for prohibited people to buy a firearm,” Tom King of the NYSRPA said, referring to people who don’t have a gun permit or are otherwise prohibited from possessing a gun. He said self-assembled guns provide a way for competition shooters to make a custom-fitted firearm. Such weapons should have serial numbers and be registered — and any new legislation should consider such a provision, he said. But it appears increasingly, King said, people trying to evade the law are the ones buying and selling self-assembled weapons. [More]
Well, like his old pal Jacob was wont to say:
Screw the Founding Fathers.
And you wonder why New York gun laws are what they are.

Now if you'll excuse me, it's time I was "masterbating [sic] to Red Dawn with [my] fanboys."

UPDATE  -- Tom King issues a denial of sorts:
The quotes in question came from a thirty-minute Newsday interview that I conducted more than a month ago. Of course, only a couple of sentences were used from that 30 minute conversation.
That's pretty carefully weasel-worded inasmuch as he doesn't deny he spoke the words quoted.  Of course, the antis will use those words and their context to their advantage.

There's also this:
I do not condone anyone intentionally breaking the law as I believe that only helps our opposition.
So when DiFi gets the votes to say "Turn 'em all in, Mr. and Mrs. America," and Beto says he expects Americans to obey the semiauto surrender law, Tom King is ready to lead us into doing what, exactly?

I've tweeted to one of the Newsday authors and asked for his comment on the characterization of his report. I'll screenshot it if I get a response.

We're the Only Ones Undoubted Enough

Lightfoot says she has "no reason to doubt" Johnson's account of what happened... [More]
Yeah, it's not like he has more incentive than most to lie.

And Johnson's Janissaries would afford the same benefit of the doubt to "civilians"?

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

So Much for 'First Do No Harm'

Doctor pulls gun on anti-abortion group at women's clinic in Phoenix, police say [More]
I thought "pro-abortionists" were overwhelmingly party of "gun control" Democrats...

Took 'em long enough...  If the doctor really did tell the reluctant "Only One" he did not take weapons to work, prosecutors need to add lying to authorities charges.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Piers Morgan Paradise...

The dreadful incident was only brought to a close by one of the tree surgeons revving a chainsaw at the mob to scare them away... [More]
What, and the racist hasn't been arrested?

Now If We Could Just Get You to Bare Your Neck...

Groups ask Missouri gun dealers to help fight gun suicides [More]
All they need to do is develop psychic abilities because otherwise, this requires totally untrained store personnel to make rights-denying decisions based on unqualified diagnoses. And woe unto them if the "delayed" transferee is a discrimination-sensitive minority.

Who better to expect that of them than Opposite Day "progressive" mental health professionals?

Watch, once you let them get their foot in the door and admit that FFLs can influence suicide decisions, for the dealer liability line to be pushed to "knew or should have known."

Vampires and thresholds come to mind. Ya just don't invite 'em in.

That's because lies are propagated and the truth is marginalized and suppressed.

We're the Only Ones Shooting First Enough

The deputy fires, although how many shots is not clear.Tench is heard screaming in pain on the footage, saying he had been shot twice. “Oh my god, call the cops please!” The deputy, standing in the yard away from the door, yells back, “I am the cops!” [More]
Funny-- we know the victim's name, and he's not the one who represents a proven public danger...
