Looks Like a Political Move to Me

[More]

Will the "pro-gun" CIC let it stand?

Would it be fair to wonder if the 55th Wing Commander is counting on that to emerge a "progressive hero" with plenty of political backing to become an instant rising star?

Magical Thinking

I wonder if Chuck Todd also thinks this is a “fairy tale.” [More]

Hell, I'd just like to see some consistency in terms of who gets mocked.

And what gets presented as "holy"...

The Experts Agree

[More]

It doesn't f***ing work.

All in the Families

If you are a California Democrat and not retarded, and this doesn't turn you against them, you are criminally complicit.

And before dismissing this as "Infowars," first examine the truthfulness of the relationship claims.

UPDATE-- And the beat goes on:

Paul Pelosi Jr. – like Hunter Biden, was given no-show jobs for which he wasn’t qualified in an effort to buy influence with his politician parent.

With Friends Like These

My friend and former colleague Tom Nichols has been going on one of his regularly scheduled Twitter anti-gun rants over the past few days. [More] 

Why are you friends with someone who wants to render you vulnerable to being tyrannized and killed under force of arms?

I don't think anyone who believes we can agree to disagree and then all get along has come to grips with things being existential. Not when the choice being imposed is surrender or be destroyed.

Who Brought the Feathers?

Washington Court Strikes Down Ban on "Intimidating a Public Servant," [More]

False alarm-- turn the fire down on the tar kettle. That's gonna have to wait until things go "extra-Constitutional," which is pretty much up to the ones doing the pushing and squeezing.

Take This Degree in Militant Non-Binary Reparations Studies with the Unpayable Student Loan and Shove It

This is a good thing. People are finding alternatives like trade schools and entering the workforce. [More]

Which can have the effect of making them want to keep what they've earned, and maybe even to protect it...

Globalist Apparatchiks Wanted: Inquire Within

[More]

While I would put nothing past these hive insects and agree that blue helmets deploying on U.S. soil would make fine targets, I'm thinking, based on where the program has missions, the focus of this job will be more in line with coordinating between HQ and Wakanda. Unless and until I see directly-connected evidence justifying a greater immediate leap to conclusions, I'm reluctant to view this as anything but routine placement within a function that has been ongoing.

I don't doubt they'd like to. I just don't think this is it.

The Sex Box

The “Sex” box has been revised to include a third option of “Non-Binary”. [More]

So shouldn't that be a "Gender" box? And shouldn't males identifying as females be able to so indicate, and vice versa?I'm thinking bunches of people asking those questions may be a fun monkeywrench to jam into the gears.

If the comment period started on Dec. 26, you'd think the article would link us to it. I just spent some time over at Regulations.gov and their Beta site and must be doing something wrong, because I don't see it, and I'm remembering how bump stock comments got screwed up so you couldn't comment after the clock started.

Am I just looking for it wrong?

Ask the Infringers!

GOA to Ask Legislators about Gun Confiscation Money in Northam’s Budget [More]

"How will you spend the bullet fees?" comes to mind.

I just now got to the VCDL alert where they wanted to get supporters to attend, and it's too late because the hearings have started.

What Did Chairman Mao Say about Political Power and the Barrel of a Gun?

Massacres and shootings should be deemed a serious violation of human rights. [More]

This tired old song again... Amazing how much Chi-com propagandists sound exactly like our own DSM...

As for the premise about murders, they are. So are genocides and concentration camps. Which is why the capability to repel those who would perpetrate them is the paramount human right.

Yo, Jennifer Estrada: How does it feel to be such a useful idiot?

Here We Go Loop-de-Lie

Would-be terrorists could exploit gun law loophole used by Saudi pilot in Pensacola shooting rampage: FBI [More] 

As I noted at the time:

It's always a “loophole” with these people.

If he's too dangerous to own a damn gun, what the hell is the government doing letting him into the country in the first place, and then onto military bases?

Except that would be "racist." No?

And so much for "background checks"...

Pretty damn loopy if you ask me.

We're the Only Ones Dogged Enough

Davie police officer trying to shoot dog accidentally shoots self [More] 

All this from "a non-criminal incident"? And Bella did not continue her "attack"? Meaning she wasn't trying to in the first place?

"Heroes"...

Bringing Out Their Inner Horiuchi, Eh?

Docs Show Canadian Mounties Deployed Snipers Against Indigenous Pipeline Protesters [More] 

Reds vs. Redcoats?

Popcorn?

We're the Only Ones Heroic Enough

I don't suppose it occurs to anyone at YourErie.com to be ashamed of themselves? [More]

Butthurt

His identity was not available Thursday night. [More]

Or weeks later, it seems, if looking at what's readily out there in the news feeds is any indication.

Why do I sense there could be more to this story?

Lowering the Boom?

This notice publishes the 2019 List of Explosive Materials, as required by law. The 2019 list is the same as the 2018 list published by ATF, except that the 2019 list adds four explosives not previously listed. [More] 

That reminds me: Whatever happened to wetted nitrocellulose?

The New Normal

NBA star Dwyane Wade said in a recent interview that his son's decision to transition from male to female is the "new normal." [More]

Again, Mr. Wade, flesh it out.

At Least They're Honest

Provisional figures indicate 33,000 people handed in 51,000 guns, and another 5,000 guns as part of a parallel amnesty in which owners could hand over any type of firearm without any questions being asked but without getting compensated. [More]

Well, they are doing what any honest, law-abiding Kiwi would do.  And those "I will not comply" holdouts are just making the rest of them look bad.
