The Takeaway

Ephesians 6:12 comes to mind. [Watch]

If you wore a MAGA hat into that bar, they'd probably kill you.

Send Not to Know for Whom the Cane Swings

Coming soon to a diverse and inclusive community near you. [More]

As a side note, the swings for the camera look a might unenthusiastic. Let's see what happens to someone not so connected, particularly to a female, assuming family "honor" hasn't already been reclaimed.

When's World Hijab Day again...?

The Boot with the 'R' On It

Under Cornyn’s legislation, nearly all federally funded schools in the U.S. would be required to install software to surveil students’ online activities, potentially including their emails and searches, in order to flag “violent” or alarming content. [More]

I may just have to enroll in a continuing education credit class...

Cornyn...

As for "cosponsors," I see that idiot McSally is doing her best to make gun owners not see much difference if Mr. Gabby wins. And why doesn't Thom Tillis surprise me?

We're the Only Ones Representative Enough

A New Jersey state police trooper has been suspended without pay after he was charged with driving drunk while in Indiana for another officer's funeral. Michael Kulik was arrested after being stopped in West Lafayette on Oct. 18. That occurred hours before he was due to represent his department... [More]

How's
he
doing?

Prof quoted as saying 'I don't have a problem with' Antifa violence [More]

Fair enough. I can't say I'd much mind if the favor were returned.

The Party's Over

Four people were killed and several more were injured when gunfire erupted at a chaotic gathering on Halloween night that was billed on social media as an “Airbnb Mansion Party” in an upscale neighborhood in Orinda. [More]

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

and

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

I take it there is no community safety issue where a BOLO might be helpful?

Authorities have not provided any details on what led to the shooting or who might be responsible.

Might the guys asking for their cars back provide a clue...?

Hughes Amended

He sponsored several anti-crime measures, and he also authored a ban on fully automatic weapons. His support for the 1994 federal assault weapons ban was also considered important for its advancement and eventual approval. [More]

“He exuded a sense of civility with respect to everything he did in life..."?

His enforcers, not so much.

Gutsy Lady

‘Bring it on, Beto!’ O’ Rourke challenged by furious resident not about to give up her guns [More]

I'll bet she could take him, too.

Shame on everyone in that room who did not stand with her.

Closed Captioning

I don't normally post other people's memes for a lot of reasons, including it's rare when you know who to credit, but this one literally made me, as the acronym goes,  LOL.

Speaking of a Visitor from the Past...

I thought I posted something on this five years ago but can't find it now and it's making the rounds again, so I'll give it another shot. [Watch]

Right Back Atcha, Genius!

[More]

A 19-year-old man is behind bars after being accused of robbing a woman in Hickory Hill with a rifle pointed to her head.

Kobe Westbrooks is charged with aggravated assault, robbery, theft and unlawful possession of a handgun. Not only did he allegedly point that weapon at the woman's head, police reports said he told her words no one wants to hear: "I'm going to kill you." [More]

Somehow I think young Kobe is going to modulate that attitude in present company. And naturally, his victim was coming home from work.

So, "Authorized Journalist" Quametra Wilborn and the crack team at WREG News Channel 3 Memphis: What's the deal with "rifle" and "handgun"?  Ah well, it doesn't matter, I'm sure you'd like to ban all of them.

Fascist Media Pigs on Parade

Oh, look-- a bunch of self-important narcissists shilling for more government control like the good little approved lottery winners they are. [More] 

We've already explored Rosie's significance enough today, so let's move on to the guy in the headshot. Every time I see Jason Alexander with that phony smile on his mug, I can't help but recall him virtue-praying for Obama. I've mentioned before how I tried to watch Seinfeld and gave up after two episodes because I didn't recognize any men I could identify with.

Forgetting His Place

Who does he think he is? Lee Paige?

If I owned a gun range I'd ask every new customer to explain Cooper's Rules, and if they couldn't, they'd need to get some instruction before being allowed to proceed on their own.

And There was War in Heaven

The NRA just called its own video network “distasteful and racist” ... But the advertising firm that built NRATV says the NRA is “self destructing.” [More]

Great. Keep feeding the enemy at the worst possible time, highly-paid "leaders."

Wayne will not let go. He can't.

We're the Only Ones 'Boy Howdy!' Enough

An off-duty police officer accidentally shot his own son after mistaking him for an intruder. [More]

Son of a gun.

All these years with feral sons Uday and Qusay coming in at all hours and I've never even come close. And professionals make it look so easy.

Especially the "No arrests have been made, and the names of the officer and his son have not been released" part...

So When Can We Expect Shane Jones to Confirm He Supports Pedophile Laws?

"The Minister says after firing such weapons he's even more convinced that we don't need them in New Zealand and says he fully stands by Cabinet's decisions on gun control in the wake of the March terrorist attack." [More]

So he gets caught and decides his best play is to act like he was on some kind of confirmation research mission. What a poor liar and a punk.

We're the Only Ones Homey Enough

Cleveland police officer charged with raping woman inside his home due in court [More]

He was home, it was the end of his shift and he wanted to make it. Problem?

Walking on 'Sunshine'

Rosie O'Donnell, 57, and fiancee Elizabeth Rooney, 34, 'split' after yearlong engagement...Rosie was previously married to Kelli Carpenter from 2004 until 2004; her second marriage was to Michelle Rounds in 2012. They split in 2016; Michelle died by suicide in September 2017. [More]

Rosie...

And yet a second "Sunshine" song comes to mind:

He can't even run his own life, I'll be damned if he'll run mine...

It seems to be a common thread among those who demand to control others.

'Good Riddance'?

Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York said: “Good riddance..." [More]

And since we know Trump is an avatar for those who support him based on his campaign platform, that determination to get rid of such citizens goes for them, too.

Everywhere and in Everytown the Democrats control. There is no place for them in the occupied former republic.

Besides, you didn't build that and it's ours now. Get out.

No one is under the illusion that "diversity" includes for beliefs that don't serve the Violence Monopoly, I trust.
