What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

  A court on Wednesday approved a total of $800 million in payouts from casino company MGM Resorts International and its insurers to more than 4,400 relatives and victims of the Las Vegas Strip shooting that was the deadliest in recent U.S. history. The action makes final a deal announced earlier this month and settles dozens of lawsuits... [More]

Dare I suggest it is a bargain settlement to keep a lid on what they don't want coming out that has been completely overshadowed by "bump stocks"? And no, I'm just going to have to stay cryptic on this.

Red Herring

 The President is blatantly urging his supporters to congregate at polling places, go inside, and ostensibly harass and intimidate voters. [More]

Oh, look, a new talking point!

Citizens have the right to watch for irregularities while they are there and report them to poll workers. I can't speak for all states, but here in Ohio:

Persons Checking the Official Precinct Voter Registration List - Any person may enter the polling location for the sole purpose of checking and taking notes from the Official Precinct Voter Registration List that is posted at 6:30 a.m. and updated at 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Such persons may not wear any campaigning clothes or accessories and may not interfere with or disrupt the election.

I recall doing the same thing in CA when I was working on a pal's campaign for state assembly. In that way, we were able to ID delinquents and light a fire under them to get them to the polls.

Herring just invited angry confrontation with everyone who is doing that.

[Via Mack H]

That's Debatable

 I listened to last night's debate on the car radio because I had to pick the Mrs. up from the airport. I heard a lot of lost opportunities, but then again, hindsight is what it is.

I noted a singular absence of the "single issue" from that back and forth, and seeing as how so many millions will be voting based on the right to keep and bear arms, I fully expect it will come up in a future verbal cage match. As such, I want to get this advice to the president in now (and since he will most likely never see anything I write, I hope those who have his ear (do these guys, really?) tell him something similar and that he listens):

Don't compromise. Don't accede that "red flags" are something we should look at. Don't cite bump stocks as an achievement.

Don't take fire out of bellies.

 Right now, the executive branch technically has the authority under a World War II-era amendment of the Communications Act of 1934 to seize control of, monitor, or shut down “any wire communication” if the president deems it necessary for “national security” and declares an emergency. This power applied to the modern age would certainly include the ability of a president to, amid a crisis, seize control of the internet or even shut it off in swaths of the country in the name of national security.

Judging Amy

 I received an email asking me about the RKBA positions of the women candidates for the Supreme Court. Here's my response:

With Trump's announcement, Barett is the candidate, singular...

I touched on what had been the two frontrunners in my latest Firearms News piece:

Of the two, Barrett has been pilloried by the unctuously “progressive” Slate as having a “fundamentally cruel vision of the law,” warning readers “there is no doubt that Barrett would dramatically expand the Second Amendment, invalidating gun control measures around the country.”

That said, Slate would object to anyone not fully on board with the gun grab agenda. 

Here are the GOA and NRA assessments.

None of this means she will be strong on "shall not be infringed" for everything that comes her way or have the same level of determination and understanding as informed gun advocates, and you can't rise to that level in the courts without being committed to stare decisis precedents. I doubt if she'll be sympathetic to core purpose militia arguments and expect she will make some statements in confirmation hearings that many will object to. 

I've also got concerns about her predispositions on "immigration," considering the Catholic Church is big on "refugee resettlement," her personal stake in that with the adopted Haitian children, and the legislative and judicial impacts we know that has on RKBA.

Bottom line: I expect we'll find out the specifics on all of this after she's been seated.

Have I mentioned lately that the gravest danger we face in this country comes from "white nationalists"?

Forget it, Jake. It's Chi-Town.

Times-Dispatch Writer Gets It Exactly Backwards in Militia Article


 It’s not hard to imagine authorities triaged to those areas and efforts of greatest need. That means there will be no one to provide essential services, including policing, outside of those areas. How does it not make sense to have the good citizens of this country prepared and organized so that if and when the need arises, they have a structure and a chain of command they can coordinate with and receive direction from? How else would we maintain order in otherwise unserviced areas? [More]

Maybe instead of “Defund the Police,” the demand ought to be “Fund the Militia.”

Tell Me They'd Be Doing This if She Wore a Hijab

 The president of the influential Family Research Council is warning that Democrats already have launched "a full-scale assault" on the faith and religious beliefs of the frontrunner to fill the Supreme Court vacancy, Amy Coney Barrett. [More]

Too bad she's not a Satanist, right?

All Things Being Equal

 City of Minneapolis commends heavily armed group of black 'Freedom Fighters' who've been patrolling streets 'protecting businesses, protesters and black heritage' since death of George Floyd [More]

Good for them. That's as it should be.

Now look at how Oath Keepers are portrayed.

We're the Only Ones Next Gen Enough

 Sacramento ex-deputy sentenced to jail for sex with ex-boyfriend’s teenage son [More]

Anybody else reading a revenge set-up by the mother in all this?

THAT'll Teach Him!

 4th grade virtual learner gets suspended for having a BB gun in his bedroom [More]

Jeez, the biggest and cruelest bullies always seem to be the zero-tolerance hive insects who administer the "tolerance" and "no bullying" policies. With "progressives," every day is Opposite Day.

This is not the first time this has happened... I'm wondering when a guns-a-blazin' SWAT response will result in fun for all.

I'm also wondering -- since "education" is compulsory here in "the land of the free" and since public school employees are government functionaries -- if a self-incrimination/Fifth Amendment and a Fourth Amendment defense might be made for requiring the cameras in the home.

As noted before, I had more freedom in the Shah's Iran than children do now in the land of the Second Amendment.

Damned if You Do, Damned if You Don't

 

B&G Foods to remove black Cream of Wheat chef from packaging [More]

Then there's poor old Uncle Ben...

So note how the same people indignant about non-white mascots are furious that minorities are "underrepresented" on Rice Krispies...

Bagging Some Wrays

 FBI Director Christopher Wray was the target of White House criticism for the second time in a week Friday as Chief of Staff Mark Meadows chided him over remarks made a day earlier to Congress about voter fraud.[More]

I hate to say "I told you so."

An Intensifying Debate

 But that has not stopped an intensifying debate in the military about its role should a disputed election lead to civil unrest. [More]

And who is stoking that but the Democrats and their DSM cheerleaders?

Note Trump has never said he would refuse to step down if he loses a legitimate election. what's scary is the multitude of mob influencers feigning outrage over that.

That Drudge gives this calculated hysteria-mongering headline placement tells us much about how he has devolved.

Kinder, Gentler Prosecution

 'It should be attempted murder at a minimum!' National Police Association questions 'wanton endangerment' charges against Louisville gunman who 'shot two cops' during demonstrations [More]

Maybe if we're nice to them we can put this behind us and all be friends?

Of Course You Realize This Means War

 Is it time for a ‘whiff of grapeshot’ to bring the rioters to heel? [More]

That won't do it.

If the enemy doesn't surrender unconditionally, you will have won nothing. That people -- especially our "leaders" -- don't get that is what has resulted in the hundred thousand or so "war deaths" suffered by this country since the last time we forced that ultimatum on an enemy.

Life Imitates Art

 Three railroad workers have been suspended for turning a storage room under New York’s Grand Central Terminal into an unauthorized “man cave” with a television, a refrigerator, a microwave and a futon couch, officials said Thursday. [More]

How many girls do you know of who have a Park Avenue address like this one?
