A 'Commonsense Gun Safety Advocate'


Police reported that Manfredonia was at the scene of a homicide on Sunday in Derby, Connecticut, and at a serious assault on Friday in Willington, Connecticut. Police said he was armed with pistols and long guns stolen during a home invasion. [More]
That and he's a leftist who raised money for gun-grabbers:
Manfredonia said the money raised during the event would support Sandy Hook Promise...
Yeah, them.

Looks like the social media cleaner crew has already been here.

If Only They Would Disarm You and Me

At least 13 are killed and 32 more are injured in multiple shootings during Memorial Day weekend of bloodshed across St Louis and Chicago [More]
Odds are a good percentage of those would be the NRA members they aim citizen disarmament laws at, wouldn't you think?

Safe Home Invading -- The Socially Responsible Thing to Do

"Two males with masks covering their faces entered the side garage door of the residence. Both males were armed with handguns and confronted the homeowner in the master bedroom. The suspects told the victim to lay on the floor and was not physically harmed. The two suspects ransacked the master bedroom and took jewelry and cash before entering a vehicle occupied by a third suspect. The vehicle fled the scene." [More]
Masks? Who says we can't count on their cooperation in times of need?

A Little Old for Eddie Eagle...

Investigators determined that a small group of young people were playing with a gun and it discharged and killed the 18-year-old, according to Kelly. [More]
It's not exactly like the community heroes could get it to throw itself down before they dared approach it to arrest it.

And remember "commonsense gun safety experts" teach us mandated ignorance is the way!

And If You Act Now...

Hudson, Ohio: Recent Attacks On Seniors Prompt Police To Issue Public Safety Alert, Urging Older Residents To Carry New Safety Device [More]
I live in Hudson, OH. You don't get much safer.

I'd be interested in knowing whether they're talking about the Acme or the Heinen's, both of which have relatively safe, well-lit, and traveled parking lots, and if they can cite any police report or link to any alerts. And why they know about it but the Hudson Hub Times does not.

Hell, I'd be less curious if they could just ID a "Ruth Miller" who is 63, as Zabasearch can't find one in Hudson and the only two on the Summit County voter roll were born in 1929 and 1932.

Far be it from me to call into question the forthrightness of the elusive Rachel Manfield and the fine folks at Safe Alarm, but I do wonder what city "Chief of Police Jeff Strum" works for.

It appears Web Scammer Jammer is similarly unimpressed.

He Went to Jared

For the past six months, top Trump campaign officials, reporting to Jared Kushner, have been working on a radical overhaul of the Republican Party platform. [More]
I wonder how he -- and this -- would have done against Hillary in 2016...

We're the Only Ones Greenlighting Enough

Last month, the original law was amended as part of the 2020 budget, now making it an E Felony for any law enforcement officer to share DMV records with another law enforcement agency in charge of immigration like ICE or DHS. [More]
Think of it as a variation of "gaslighting."

So when's the Big Fight?

[Via Bluesgal]

A Shot Across the Bow?


This is pretty long on allegations and short on substantiation. [More]

In any case, it cries out for an investigation -- either against a lying attempt to extort a federal judge or as an insider tip to find evidence of corruption.

The Results are In

Once again, the Republicans have nominated several candidates who strongly embrace liberal Democrat values. [More]
Most supposedly "pro-gun" Republicans are devoid-of-principle frauds who make soothing noises to win elections but would betray us in a heartbeat if  the numbers said "Grab."

Meanwhile, Over at the Newsraper of Record...

Scarcely five minutes after their list was published, people on Twitter began pointing out an obvious error: Jordan Haynes, 27, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, was the sixth name on the Times list, but he did not die of COVID-19. He was a homicide victim, whose body was found in a car in a wooded area near Interstate 380. Exactly how the “team of editors” made such a colossal blunder, we don’t know, but they’ve deleted Haynes’ name from the list and promised to publish a correction tomorrow. [More]
Who do these people think they are? "No More Names" compilers?

And He'll Get Away with It, Too

Gov. Inslee’s Lax Unemployment Benefits Rules Made Washington Primary Target Of Nigerian Crime Ring [More]
That won't stop fanatics who voted for him from dismissing the crime as acts of a desperate people victimized by colonialism -- or from attacking businesses that want to reopen as selfish haters.

Those Who WILL Not Learn from the Past

We must criminalize gun possession in Canada [More]
I trust no one thought Tony had an original idea rattling around in that authoritarian skull of his?

Funny thing about Vahan:
Kololian’s lengthy journey began in Cairo, Egypt, where he was born in 1953.  His family had fled to Egypt at the time of the Armenian Genocide, perpetrated by the Young Turk leaders of the Ottoman Empire.
Made possible by...

And his solution is to impose that -- under force of arms -- on the people who took him in and enabled him to prosper.

Nothing Special?

We do not offer exemptions to Law Enforcement. [More]
That should count for plenty when it comes to customer loyalty.

Q&A

So, if half of the recorded voter fraud incidents in Texas involved absentee ballots, and research shows that is where voter fraud most often occurs, why reject the state’s concerns that incidents of voter fraud will increase when the use of absentee ballots increases? [More]
Because it serves your purposes and because you can?

We're the Only Ones Downloading Enough

When Miguel Deras, one of the officers assigned to her case, received them, he saved the photos on his personal phone. And days before McCluskey was killed by the man who was blackmailing her, Deras showed off at least one of the images to a male co-worker and bragged about getting to look at them whenever he wanted, according to two fellow officers. [More]
Naive "woke progressives" have no idea what they're getting themselves into and buy into the "Only Ones" mythos.

We're the Only Ones Peaceable Enough

The agents are part of the Ohio Investigative Unit, which is made up of plainclothes peace officers responsible for enforcing Ohio’s alcohol, tobacco and food stamp fraud laws. [More]
If you don't obey on options 1 and 2, they'll kill you.  If you resist paying for option 3, another branch will kill you.

Figure's the commander's name is Wolf.  I wonder if he wears a wool suit.

The Stuff that Dreams are Made Of

[A]re virtual actors about to put Hollywood's humans out of work? [More]
My first reaction was to cheer on the fall of stars from the firmament. But the thought strikes these could even be more dangerous as influencers.

Think about all the idiot idol worshippers out there. Tell me a Twitter account from a "blue check" celebot wouldn't garner a mass following that hangs on every political pronouncement.

Well, fellas, I assume you saw the comment form instruction to "Leave your comment -
Keep it on topic. Submit tips on different topics via left sidebar Contact Form," but then decided the reason I put the work into this is to give you publicity?

That alone is pretty off-putting behavior, but the kicker is your claim to be "a Class 3 NFA Dealer" in Texas (with a Lompoc, CA address?) on your website (no hotlink for you to https://www.discretegunshop.com/ ), followed by inducements to among other things, "Buy machine guns online ... BUY GUNS ILLEGALLY ONLINE ... Buy FFL LICENSE, Buy Passport online, Buy Driver License online, Buy Visa Online, Buy IELTS Online, Buy Birth Certificate online, Buy resident permit online, Buy Fake passport online, Buy Real Passport online, Buy Fake drivers License online, Buy real Drivers License online, Buy fake id cards online, Buy second passport online, Buy diploma online, Buy degree online, Buy Nembutal Pentobarbital, Buy Nembutal Pentobarbital Sodium (Injectable), Buy Butobarbital online, Buy Nembutal Allobarbital, Brallobarbital, Buy Nembutal online..."

What I can't figure out is what kind of criminals you are: freelance spreading malware and scamming people out of credit card numbers, or "community heroes" out to entrap low-hanging fruit?
