The Hunt is On
UPDATE: 3 Friends Massacred While Fishing, Sheriff Grady Judd Requesting Information [More]We see means and opportunity. Looking at a video from another report, I'm wondering if we see motive:

UPDATE-- Probably not:
Judd described Tony as "pure evil in the flesh" and said he has 230 previous felony charges.There ought'a be a law.
Our Best Friend This Side of Jesus
As history’s most forthright, pro-Second Amendment president and as a fellow NRA member, President Donald J. Trump has championed the constitutional rights of law-abiding gun owners across our nation. His support has been and continues to be unrelenting, and that is why NRA-PVF proudly endorsed him this week. [More]Could we do it without the hyperbole?
I guess we members aren't sophisticated enough to deal with a candid analysis of the whole truth? We're big enough boys to deal with reality and grok the alternative is Biden.
By doing it this way, they remove any pressure to stop with the betrayals.
That's Understandable
Minn. Attorney General Keith Ellison Says He Doesn’t Want Police Officers Responding To Rape Calls [More]That's the last thing someone who abuses women would want.

A Technical Issue
Google Appears To Blacklist Non-Mainstream News Sites, Calls It ‘Technical Issue’ [More]Technically, if their technicians have arranged it, they're right.
I notice it myself all the time, but you know what? I still get better results with them than with anyone, and see the most pathetic returns from the much-ballyhooed "DuckDuckGo."

The Briar Patch Threat
Once again, Nancy Pelosi and her comrades are trying to sneak a gun confiscation scheme onto a giant piece of legislation ... Tell your Representative that anyone who supports this gun confiscation will be regarded as anti-gun in GOA’s congressional rating. [More]What if your representative is Nancy Pelosi?
Not that repeated suggestions over the years will ever be heeded.
Let the Show Trials Begin
Eleven commonwealth’s attorneys who collectively represent more than 40 percent of the state’s population formed an advocacy group this month to back criminal justice reform proposals, dubbing themselves Virginia Progressive Prosecutors for Justice. [More]Do I detect a hidden hand...?

We're the Only Ones Fair Game Enough
Some Virginia Democrats want to ‘defelonize’ assaults on cops. [More]I'm going to need to consult Mr. Benny on this one.

A Gathering Storm
What a Second American Civil War Could Look Like [More]This seems as plausible a bit of speculation as any...
Got resolve?

A Right Delayed
SAF, ISRA FILE FED. LAWSUIT DEMANDING STATE POLICE STOP FOID CARD DELAY [More]I know that there is an especially heightened need for personal defense in this time of widespread civil unrest, but in fairness, ISP has offered plenty of defensive alternatives like vomiting and rat tail combs...
Resolving Nothing
Madison County Board passes resolution warning residents of security on the Metrolink... [More]I don't suppose they'd ...? Nah, forget it ...

Well, They Say It Does Change Perception of Time...
The chief is a throwback to another time, actually arguing that marijuana leads to homicide. [More]So by "another time" they mean since 2012...?

Talk about Someone You Need a Gun Against
Police had to de-escalate a situation in Lansingburgh on Sunday as protesters briefly blocked the entrance to a church that was giving away an AR-15 rifle ... Another protester can then be heard off-camera making a threat to the church: "Your church is going up in flames tonight." [More]What is it with violent gun-grabbers? That's a terrorist threat and he should have been identified and arrested.

When Seconds Count
So if a 77 year-old is attacked with a knife right across the street from the Headquarters of most professional policing organization in Michigan and they were not able to interrupt the attack, then how can any thinking person deny that ordinary citizens (who are much farther away from the Michigan State Police Headquarters) need the means to protect themselves? [More]He had to go and stick in that "thinking person" qualifier...

The Man with the Plan
“First we get rid of the feds. Number 2, we contain and de-escalate the situation. Number 3, we clean up downtown. Number 4 we open up for business, that’s the plan,” Wheeler said. [More]Why does that remind me of the Underpants Gnomes?
Make the Right Choice
Received via email:
Yeah, but NRA did not ENDORSE him and also gives Marshall an A+.
And WTF?
Why are there no numbers for Kobach this late in the game, especially for a candidate whose stances have subjected him to attacks of being an "extremist"?
Two other things work in his favor for me:

Two other things work in his favor for me:
- The Swamp desperately wants Marshall.
- Marshall supported that miserable gun-grabbing traitor John Kasich.

The Horns of the Bull
Red Bull has just shown the way forward for all who want to prevent a total Marxist-style takeover of business and government in America. There is no appeasing these people, the only way forward is to fire them as quickly as possible, and with no mercy. [More]I have never felt the need or had any interest in trying an "energy drink." If I do, or if you do, I guess these guys deserve the business.

Where There's a Will There's a Way
Here in the UK, we can't have semi-auto firearms BUT - we can load our guns with as much ammo as we can (no magazine restrictions!). Therefore I believe this set-up offers the most fire power you can legally own here in the UK. [Watch]That's ingenious as things go, and it reminds me of attempts in this country to bypass restrictions to come up with workarounds like "bullet buttons." Ultimately, though, accepting such restrictions and devising alternatives instead of defying infringements reminds me of an observation made years ago by good friend and patriot Brian Puckett in his classic "Why I Will Not Obey California's Gun Registration Edict":
I will certainly not do as the NRA Members Councils suggest on their internet site, which is to saw off the pistol grip of one's AR-style rifle to make it "legal". Understand this: in America it is already legal. I sometimes wonder whether the socialists will issue an edict requiring all firearms to have a pink ribbon tied to the barrel, just to get a belly laugh as the panicked descendants of once-proud American patriots scurry to comply.[Via Matthew L]
We Can Do This the Easy Way or the Hard Way
If the government doesn't use its delegated powers to pursue the purposes for its existence identified in the Preamble, then it will fall back on those who will "not go gentle into that good night" to adopt "extra-Constitutional" tactics if they wish to survive.

The Finest Persecution Money Can Buy
"St. Louis prosecutor Kim Gardner is engaged in a political prosecution. I entered the case seeking a dismissal," tweeted Schmitt.. [More]I guess we'll see who has more resources.

Speaking of 'The 1619 Project'...
It’s far worse than I thought. In addition to the many links between the family that owns the New York Times and the Civil War’s Confederacy, new evidence shows that members of the extended family were slaveholders. [More]Say, isn't "The Newsraper of Record" the one pointing a finger at the rest of us...?

Contingency Plan
GET OFF THE BENCH. Build skills and connect with others in your area to prepare for the worst-case scenario. [More]I just found out about these folks and can't claim to know any more about them than what you can see by following the link. I do note the FAQ says they are not "like a militia."
My standard caveat-- if you involve yourself with people "in your area" you don't really know, remember that and act accordingly. I'd be interested to see what they teach about the CI/provocateur potentials and how to manage risks.

Trumpet for Guns Program Putting Kids at Risk
After all, the city filed a lawsuit against gun manufacturers in 1998 claiming guns that weren’t “child-proofed” were “unsafe.” Now, with the sanction of its top cop, the city is urging children to handle and transfer the very guns it sought detailed damages over. [More]So it’s now a good idea for kids like this to handle guns as long as they can trade them in for a trumpet?
