Daily Defense Redux: Three Percenters and 'Patriots'


Mark talks liberty, Three Percenter, and arrests of protesters in NC with writer, blogger, activist, David Codrea [Listen]
Here's yesterday's Armed American Radio broadcast, with a special guest appearance by our friend and colleague, the late Mike Vanderboegh.

Going Ahead with It, Of Course

He told reporters that one of the long guns could be described as a military-style assault rifle. Supt. Campbell declined to disclose the make or calibre of the firearms, saying investigators were still conducting ballistic work to determine which gun was used against each victim. [More]
And what could that "be described" as?

Not that this wasn't a foregone conclusion...

“It’s clear now that James Comey will go down in history as the most corrupt FBI director in American history,” Davis said. “He has destroyed the FBI’s reputation through his actions, his arrogance, and his corruption.” [More]

Not So Cunning Linguists

“But we would certainly prefer that this not happen because our linguistic duality is not just a question of our Canadian identity, it’s also a question of safety for consumers.” [More]
So does clinging to prejudiced binary exclusivity mean that immigrant lives don't matter?

As I once speculated about warnings on guns:
In their lawsuit, backed by CPHV, Dix's parents maintained, among other charges, that the chamber indicator was inadequate because the gun was not inscribed with a warning as well. Presumably, were Beretta to do so, they would still be deemed negligent for not including such warnings in Spanish, French, Mandarin Chinese and Tagalog.
If Frostback Frogs can't figure out you're not supposed to drink Lysol, perhaps Monsieur Darwin is trying to tell everybody something.

More Fun Than Pantsing Trigglypuff


Incel Riot Studios
Here’s our story, about how we published a game satirizing SJW culture and had surprisingly adequate success on the Internet, and how the entire social media world succeeded in shutting us down and stomping a boot on our face, forever. [More]
Sounds like a repurposed and weaponized "Hollywood Blacklist" to me, with the commies in charge showing us how the pros do it...

I empathize. The only gig I could get with my local birdcage liner would be to deliver it.

In these days of mandated lockdowns, we could all use something to do to take a break between reloading and cardio-- and nothing encourages family interaction quite like a friendly game of cards.

My caveat is I can't personally offer a testimonial because I've just learned about it, but regular WarOnGuns Correspondent CDT  offers his noting he "bought two, one for each of my own feral sons."

You can't stop the signal -- at least without an apathy assist from those who should know better. You can get yours here, and at the very least, in the name of true social justice, tell a friend.

Having it Both Ways

Alyssa Milano On Why She Still Supports Joe Biden & How She Would Advise Him About Tara Reade Allegations [More]
Ever since pulling cable and going exclusively to streaming services, I've had a chance in the evening to catch up on some TV shows I never had time to watch because of career and family demands when the feral sons were growing up. One I've checked out recently is the 90s reboot of the Outer Limits, which appears to have relied on soft porn to make up for the fact that it was no match for the original.

The episode last night "starred" Alyssa Milano as, well, let IMDB tell you:
Hannah Valesic and her boyfriend Jay Patton have been dating for a year now. They have yet to have sex with Hannah preferring to wait until they're married. That's okay with Jay who is very much in love with her. When a small object crashes through the ceiling into her bedroom, the chaste Hannah is turned into a lustful creature demanding sex from everyone she meets. In her lust however, she absorbs her victim entirely. Her first victim is the star football player and his disappearance prompts a police investigation. Jay seeks help from Professor Hugaro whose subsequent research on the topic reveals a history of similar strange deaths.
Tell me you can't find the metaphors in a sex-obsessed alien bitch out to destroy men for her personal aggrandizement.  I do wonder if in real life her husband substitutes for the cuck boyfriend now that she's pledged to reject HIM until her demands are met.

You know that part in the intro where the announcer says "We are now controlling the transmission"? About five minutes in I decided "No, I am."

She's just not a good enough actress to convince me she was a college-age virgin.

AG Letter and Lawsuit by State Rep. Challenge Jackson Open Carry Ban


Still, it’s hardly surprising that Mayor Lumumba would prioritize going after guns. Endorsed by the Bernie Sanders-inspired Our Revolution and promising to make Jackson the “most radical city on the planet,” as well as by the “quasi-Marxist” Working Families Party, he was a beneficiary of the Bloomberg Harvard City Leadership Initiative, where he received training from the “finest” apparatchiks rope-selling “capitalist” money can buy.  And while the sins of the fathers can’t be attributed to their progeny, noting that his was prominent in the racist New Afrika separatist movement “that aimed to turn the Deep South into an independent black nation,” shows the fruit hasn’t fallen far from the tree. [More]
I’m just surprised organized armed civil disobedience hasn’t been reported yet.

Gillum Actions Give Insights into Man Who Would Disarm Us


Naturally, he was not arrested. From the looks of reports, police let him go home “without incident,” meaning they were aware of who Gillum was and behaved themselves accordingly. This was the man who was almost elected governor of Florida, the chief executive responsible for ensuring laws were upheld. Had he been elected, he’d have worked to criminalize the rights of citizens who aren’t caught vomiting in hotel rooms with drugs. [More]
It's hardly a surprise that those who can't -- or more likely won't -- control themselves are obsessed with controlling those who do not share their moral defects.

If he can't screw us, no one can!
He voted for the initial law banning guns and ammunition for domestic abusers in 2015...Buehler listed several other gun safety regulations he would support. “I’m certainly for common sense gun legislation, such as banning bump stocks, restricting those under 21 from not buying assault weapons and a three-day waiting period on hand gun purchases,” he said. “Those kinds of laws would make a difference, and have in other places, to decrease gun related violence.”
"B+"?  That's even better than the "B" they gave Wayne's "true champion of the Second Amendment" Harry Reid, and we know what happened there!

But wait, as late TV pitchman Billy Mays used to say, there's more!
He added that he differed with the Trump administration on several immigration policies. He said he backed protections for immigrants brought here illegally as children, and opposed the administration’s policy of separating children from parents seeking to cross the border.
Thank goodness this has nothing to do with that "single issue"!

Subversive Machine Gun Ruling Will Gut Second Amendment If Upheld


“Here’s the bottom line,” GOA concluded. “If bump stocks can be defined as ‘machine guns’ because they supposedly cause a semi-automatic to fire automatically, then, using the same line of reasoning, semi-automatics are machine guns too.” [More]
What's inexcusable -- after this latest act of judicial treachery proving what some of us were warning about has come to pass -- is that there are still some ignoramuses on "our side" dumb enough to think the ban was just about "stupid toys" not worth going to the wall over.

I don't suppose reality would have any effect on any constituent racist and dumb enough to vote for this lying parasite:

Worse than the Disease

If the COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated anything, it is that there is no situation so severe that government can't make it worse.

When King was located, investigators say, he stated he was trying to see whether the gun's safety was on and it "went off numerous times" while in his hand. Authorities say he stated that he had been drinking vodka during this incident. [More]

Hell, I agree that a goal should be to eliminate completely criminal violence committed with guns. How we get to there from here is where we run into the problems, particularly seeing all those experiments that haven't worked.
