Lock N Load Redux



Yesterday's program with Bill Frady is now retrievable anytime and in Everytown. [Listen]

We're the Only Ones Unarresting Enough

The note did not specify what kind of citations a business might receive or if they will go to the extreme with the Class A misdemeanor. [More]
Aye, there's the rub. Ignore those and you'll be frog-marched soon enough.

What is it with these guys and equivocal assurances?

Like Ripples in a Pond

The widespread and spontaneous rebellions in various locations have had an impact. More and more states are opening up — some faster than others, and invariably blue states are the most repressive and vindictive. [More]
Widespread and spontaneous...

If I had to guess, I'd say that's how Revolution II will begin and grow.

Crisis on Infinite Earths

CW to recast 'Batwoman' after Ruby Rose exits series [More]
Will they get one who's the right religion this time?

Wink.

A Red Letter Day

 ...America’s most common and potent viral agent... [More]
You'd think somebody who lives in Chicago would have better information:


But what do we really expect from religious useful idiots?

OK by Me

Oklahoma Takes Preemptive Action, Bans Red Flag Laws [More]
And that was OK with the ORA?

About damn time...

The Consistency of Principle Conundrum


I'm reminded of a wind-up toy trapped in a corner that tries to keep walking... [More]

Leading the Blind

The Los Angeles County Public Health Director is Dr. Barbara Ferrer, but local residents expecting a virologist, molecular biologist, or epidemiologist at the helm would be disappointed. Many were surprised to learn that, unlike her predecessor Dr. Jonathan Fielding, Dr. Ferrer is not even a medical doctor. [More]
So who better to prescribe without a license?

Preparing for the Last Roundup

Colorado among the states that share names, addresses of COVID-19 cases with law enforcement [More]
But...but...but what about doctor-patient confidentiality?

Another Red Flag

Moms Demand Action backed politician threatens to shoot people who don’t wear masks [More]
And she's a gun-grabber with a concealed carry permit?

Can a bigger hypocrite exist?

I mean besides Jorge and pals...

[Via bondmen]

UPDATE:
Ironically, her Facebook page also has a video of a parade of fire equipment and others marking her son’s seventh birthday last Friday during which a firefighter hands the boy a gift. Neither is wearing a mask.

Now There's a Shocker

New Zealand Gun-Crime Rates Soar Following Gun-Bans [More]
So there's something to that Opposite Day "Progressives" assertion...?

We're the Only Ones Committing Black and White Television Violence Enough

A 68-year-old Missouri woman has filed a lawsuit against four police officers and their suburban St Louis department after they were captured in a since-viral video beating and arresting her and her adult son over a claim that the pair had stolen a television. The allegation turned out to be false. All four officers are white; the mother and son are black. [More]
I wonder if they join gun-grabbing, Democrat-backing black "community leaders" in deeming police the "Only Ones" who should be armed...

[Via bondmen]

A Transpecies Activist

If normal radical liberals in Big Tech weren’t bad enough, Twitch has named a transgender streamer who self-identifies as a deer to be on the platform’s “Safety Advisory Council.” [More]
We're gonna need a bigger 4473.

A Clear Command

Simply put, unless historical evidence clearly commands otherwise, courts claiming fidelity to originalist values ought to defer to democratically enacted public-carry policies. [More]
Simply put, as documented by the historical evidence, there is no more clear command for originalist fidelity than "shall not be infringed."

Stare decisis weenies perpetuating corrupt deviations won't stop unless they learn that the hard way.

A Question of Morbidity

Pelosi: Trump Shouldn’t Take Hydroxychloroquine Because He's In the ‘Morbidly Obese’ Class [More]
I liked James Woods' response.

Thank You, Captain Obvious

Many Americans prefer not to live in a police state, and right now it appears that draconian government policies are doing more harm than good. [More]
Ya think?

Quis Custodiet Potatoes?

"You'll have nobody guarding your potatoes." [More]
What?

You could at least ask Ralph if he's the one in blackface or the one in the sheet.

Primarily Speaking


There will be a primary election in Maryland on June 2, less than two weeks away.

There is no candidate who has come out more strongly and definitively on the right to keep and bear arms and on its greatest threat -- culturally suicidal "pathway to citizenship" immigration -- than Jim Simpson.

Gun owners are always complaining about Republican politicians who fall short. Jim Simpson is one of us, a citizen advocate, and he wants what we want. How can we expect fidelity and unbending support for our cause if we don’t show it to those who could advance our interests if we’d only help get them to a position where they can?

He needs that support now, and not just monetary, but in spreading the word to those who will be voting.

Like a Shot in the Arm

Alan Dershowitz: State has right to 'plunge a needle into your arm' - Contends Constitution grants government power to forcibly vaccinate individuals [More]
Using that rationale, it could also declare implants mandatory.

This opens the door to a much broader set of arguments, all of which lead to flawed "solutions." At some point, a "law" is only as effective as the ability to enforce it.

We Hold These Truths to be Self-Evident

Ammunition background checks lead to dozens of firearms seized across state, including in SoCal, in recent operations [More]
Background checks are registration.

Registration leads to confiscation.

Fun Times in Cleveland Again

Suspect in attack at Cleveland ATM was recently released with ankle monitor - I-Team finds 7 inmates cut off ankle bracelets since March [More]
Looks like I need to add bats...

And, of course, the Democrats who rule Cleveland have long coveted a monopoly of violence that's just a demographic jump away from being able to end preemption.

You bet it's a priority for Frank.

At least we're not Detroit.

Yeah, That's Kind of the Point

Thank you, Captainette Obvious. Arnhole is grateful for the education:


The Opposite Day "progressive" cognitive dissonance: It burns!


"Joe" doesn't get it either.

Gun-Grabbing Religious Useful Idiots Really Serving Interests of All-Powerful State


Those who hold religion in contempt have always been more than happy to exploit religious useful idiots if it advances their agenda.  [More]
At some point, when they’re no longer needed, useful idiots are then “fundamentally transformed” into useless eaters, right before they’re further “fundamentally transformed” into fertilizer.
