Thank Government
(Turn and Face the Strange) Ch-ch-changes
The most notable changes are the inclusion of the firearm information at the top of page one instead of page three, the change of “county” to “county/parish/borough,” and the addition of “non-binary” to the gender. [More]See? They're woke and respectful when they're requiring you to submit to their infringements or else.
Not your granddad's 4473...

Your Papers...
Oregon Gov. Decrees Residents in Closed Counties Cannot Shop in Open Counties [More]What if you live near a county line and the closest and most convenient places that you always shop at are right across it?
Boy, this business of being a totalitarian can get tricky.
Control freak power perverts sure are manifesting their diseased worldviews for all to see, are they not? I have a feeling that when real pushback starts to happen we'll see a cascade effect.
Squeeze, baby, squeeze...

Safe Spaces
Good Question
So why are we still bringing in temporary workers? Ask the Trump Administration. [More]The same reason we all bought instruments and band uniforms...?
Just Like at Your House
A Georgia man who was wanted for violating his probation will face several new charges after a 6-year-old took his gun and shot a sibling in the face, authorities said. [More]This is how the grabbers make it seem pervasive within all social strata instead of overwhelmingly limited to an aberrant subset:
That way, they can pass "lock up your safety" laws against you that will have absolutely no effect on the element that ignores all laws.
You can tell no one involved in this slick propaganda piece has any actual experience passing gun safety knowledge on to young people, so instead, they just used first-rate (well-financed) production values to express their ignorance and bias.
Using their "logic," upper-middle-class white people like this should abstain from sex.
AOC SOP
US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to raise taxes on the rich — but not pay her own. [More]Yes, but look at how generous she is with other people's money!
That reminds me of Bernie not doing his "fair share."

#BelieveDemocrats
Susan Faludi explains in the New York Times that when feminists said we should “believe women,” they never meant that we should believe all women. [More]Yeah, we've kind of figured that out.

So We Should Lighten the Load?
The state had the burden to prove by “clear and convincing evidence” either that DeRossett knew he was shooting at law enforcement officers, or that he was “furthering” (meaning participating in, or deriving any benefit from) his niece’s prostitution activities. Even if DeRossett knew about the prostitution in his home, his mere knowledge of it does not meet the definition of “furthering." [More]And your point is...?

Close Enough for Government Work
“In our commercial reality, we would fire anyone for developing code like this and any business that relied on it to produce software for sale would likely go bust,” David Richards, co-founder of British data technology company WANdisco, told the Telegraph. [More]What's unclear is if he spent too much time working on the front end or the back end...

As If By Design
"The results clearly show that the COVID-19 virus is exquisitely adapted to infect humans," says Flinders University Professor Nikolai Petrovsky, lead author of a new paper just published online in arXiv, a leading US preprint server for researchers. [More]It's gotta be fake news. Otherwise, the DSM would be all over it.
And they're not.
Right?

We're the Only Ones Upholding Enough
"They (the officers) actually surprised the hell out of me," Trumbetti said afterward, noting that they "did their job and upheld their oath ... and know that we are not doing anything wrong. It's about time for every police officer out there to understand we all have rights and, even as a police officer, you don't have to do this. It is unconstitutional. It's that simple. We have the right to work." [More]We also have a right to keep and bear arms. Care to test that with 'em?

And Now for the Important News
The Season 15 star of "The Bachelorette" has apologized for using the N-word while attempting to rap the lyrics of DaBaby's "Rockstar" on her Instagram Live on Saturday. [More]So what are the lyrics?
It doesn't strike anyone that forbidding words to other groups based on their race is racist? Or that an outraged reaction pile-on by her peers is the result of calculated conditioning that serves interests other than "social justice"?
Pass the oar?
Unmourning Joe
“Exactly, what’re you gonna do,” Scarborough responds, laughing loudly and deeply. [More]The creepiness of that doesn't surprise me.
As for what I'm gonna do, I'm mulling over if a FOIA request that wouldn't be a waste of time is doable...
