That's It for Me
I'll try to get to comments as I can, but emails and link tips are just no-can-dos as far as responding or acting on them, so please hold off.
The Final Word?
Argument preview: Justices take up battle over New York City gun ban – and the scope of the Second Amendment? [More]Until those who would defy infringements are gone, the scope is what they say it is, and the issues raised here don't even come close.
Biting the Hand that Feeds Them
Government workers more likely to support socialism, repealing Second Amendment: Poll [More]I'm reminded of:
"What should we think of a gentleman, who, upon hiring a waiting-man, should say to him—'my friend, please to take notice, before we come together, that I shall always claim the liberty of eating when and what I please, of fishing and hunting upon my own ground, of keeping as many horses and hounds as I can maintain, and of speaking and writing my sentiments upon all subjects.' A servant must be a fool, who would not suppose such a master to be a madman... Let these truths sink deep into our hearts: that the people are the masters of their rulers and that rulers are the servants of the people..."

How, specifically?
And noting the applause, why am I reminded of Lois Griffin running for mayor?

The Sincerest Form

But No One's Talking About Taking Your Guns
(Give her some credit here — at least she realizes a repeal is the only (legal) means by which gun rights can be eliminated.) [More]The College Fix spreading such nonsense is actually a greater danger than the lunatic prof, because their readership dismisses her with deserved ridicule but trustingly swallows their assertions. I guess they never learned:
“The very text of the Second Amendment implicitly recognizes the pre-existence of the right and declares only that it ‘shall not be infringed.’ As we said in United States v. Cruikshank, ‘[t]his is not a right granted by the Constitution. Neither is it in any manner dependent upon that instrument for its existence."[Via Michael G]
Same as It Ever Was
In other words: socialism. But when they tried that, the Pilgrims almost starved. [More]Yet look how many turkeys are voting for it.

We're the Only Ones the Best of Friends Enough
Former Housing Bureau Officer Martinson Afari Yeboah, 28, “recklessly, dangerously and negligently” left his loaded gun on a coffee table while he played FIFA Soccer with Frederick Afoakwah on April 21, according to a notice of claim filed Monday in Bronx Supreme Court by Ransford Afoakwah. Frederick Afoakwah, 21, picked up the gun to inspect it and it went off, striking him in the neck. [More]

That's a Keeper
Make no mistake. Schuklenk and his ilk — such as the adamant opponent of medical conscience, Ezekiel Emanuel — are deadly serious about crushing all dissent within the medical professions to emerging cultural paradigms, and plan to morally cleanse the ranks of doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and institutions of all wrong thinkers, particularly of the religious and pro-life kind. [More]And don't get me started on guns.
I saw a show about this once.
