Trump could be ‘big beneficiary' in Virginia gun control battle... [More]Why, what's he done? Nothing?
And why do we have to "urge" someone who presents himself as a leader? He should be urging us.

Tell Us Those Insincere Platitudes We So Long to Hear
And why do we have to "urge" someone who presents himself as a leader? He should be urging us.

We're the Only Ones Live and Uncut Enough
Bodycam Video Reveals Moment Suspect Shot Dead As He Was About to Slaughter Police Officer with a Machete [More]
Now imagine how it would have played out had the recording been made by a disarmed-by-law citizen.

A Great First Step
“I like that they’re making an attempt to close these loopholes at gun shows,” said Kate Kile, the leader of the organization’s Tallahassee chapter. “It’s a great first step.” [More]Or as I observed 20 damn years ago when they were floating that same tired-at-the-time lie:
But for the gun controllers, that’s not all bad– because based on results, each tragedy provides a new opportunity to exploit, a new press conference to hold, a new law to enact, or a new lawsuit to file. They’ll propose further restrictions under the bald-faced pretense that it’s "a good first step." They won’t tell you that there are already over 20,000 gun laws on the books at the federal, state and municipal level that are consistently ignored by all but the law-abiding.[Via Roger J]
"A good first step…" the clueless segment of our victim pool populace will drone back at the proposal of law number 20,001.
"One helluva good first step– keep ‘em coming!" agree illegally armed criminal predators, emboldened with each new law that renders their prey increasingly vulnerable…
Awkward Ages
I’m not going to push for the bill to pass. I wouldn’t vote for the thing. This is just to make a point,” Rodgers said, according to CNN. [More]
Treating young adults like children is a big part of why this culture is in the mess it is.
But mostly it's from treating older adults like children.
The Not-So Hidden Hand
Enforce Existing Intolerable Acts?
With the 2020 Illinois General Assembly session about to kick into full gear (with gun control being a centerpiece), there is something that needs to be addressed. This will be a timeline of the FOID/CCL system and how not using funds intended for it and not following up on FOID revocations for violent offenders turn into tragedy. It will also show how legislators pass the blame (and cost) on to innocent legal illinois gun owners. [More]
So their thesis is that "gun control" works?
And we should demand the state do its job?
Thanks for the Tip
Michael Bloomberg’s record is actually that of an authoritarian nightmare. [More]For some reason, this reminds me of a scene from "Kindergarten Cop."
And for some reason, Hollywood having child actors speak lines like that has always creeped me out.
Kind'a like Bloomberg does...

A Democrat Dilemma
In the past decade, the US commonwealth has become an increasingly popular destination for foreign women to give birth as it gives their children eligibility for US citizenship. [More]
I imagine the pressure between manipulating women to do that or to have an abortion must create real internal conflicts...

Tell Me This Won't Solve Everything
The bills now headed for the full Senate would require background checks on all firearms purchases, allow law enforcement to temporarily remove guns from individuals deemed a risk to themselves or others, let localities ban weapons from certain events and government buildings, and cap handgun purchases at one per month. [More]Representatives of the Bloods, Crips, Gangster Disciples, G Shyne, Bloodhound Pyru, and 9 Trey Bloods were too scary to approach for comment on how they intended to comply.

An Idea Whose Time has Come
NRA Handing Out 30-Round Mags in VA to Fight Northam Gun Ban [More]
Do it after the ban and I'll be impressed.

Playing Hard to Get or What?
With the overwhelmingly strong showing of support, the Yavapai County Board of Supervisors tabled their original idea for a proclamation. [More]
So they licked their fingers and stuck them resolutely in the air...?
After all this "consideration," it's time for a decision, especially after seeing constituents standing out in the cold. Let's hope AZCDL's hope works out.
A little encouragement couldn't hurt.

Republican Poltroon of the Month Award Finalist
A Republican In a Red State Introduced Legislation to Provide Illegal Aliens a New Benefit [More]Just what we need: Some f***er who can't keep his d**k in his pants serving his cheap labor masters to culturally terraform (i.e., "destroy") the Founders' Republic.
Oh, but the license won't let them vote? Amnesty will follow, and besides, all their anchor babies will -- and guess which way.
No matter, because he assures us:
“Oh, I think it’s good to draw attention — I’m a strong supporter of the Second Amendment,” Guthrie said. “And, I think it’s good to continue to call attention to the need for legislation to offset what they’re doing, particularly, at the federal level.”
Maybe he'd like to take the challenge and explain how those votes today are going to do any good tomorrow when what he's enabling makes it all moot.

Was Her Face Red
For the first time, a judge has denied a request to take away a man’s guns under Colorado’s new red flag law. A Limon woman claimed a man who she had a relationship with threatened her with a gun and filed the request. [More]
Good on the judge for not being a rubber stamp.
I'd say it's in the public interest to know who is out there making life-destroying false claims, including what their politics are.
Meanwhile, Over in the Anti-Gun Democrat Enclaves
If Trump wins, 'f***ing cities burn,' Dem presidential campaign worker threatens [More]I have a real problem with this: I don't know if I should consult Mr. Benny or Tommy Lee.
And Yul is absolutely no help with this.
UPDATE- I need not solicit an opinion for this report:
“Germany had to spend billions of dollars re-educating their fucking people to not be Nazis,” he continues. “We’re probably going to have to do the same fucking thing here.”Is it really so wrong to agree with Mencken?

Hey, He's GOT His
Tom Steyer, the billionaire investor and Democrat 2020 candidate, wants Americans to provide cheap housing to illegal immigrants. [More]
That reminds me, I've got to move some funds out of savings because property taxes will be due soon.
Do these anti-gun billionaires proposing Marxist programs like this and "universal basic income" really think it will keep the mob their puppets' policies have created from dragging them off to the guillotines?
