Nice Home You Got Here. Shame if Somthin' HAPPENED To It

 

Some Protests Against Police Brutality Take a More Confrontational Approach: The protests are moving into white residential neighborhoods, where activists demand that people choose a side. [More]

Or else what?

And note that Arizona Senate candidate Mark Kelly approves of extortion tactics against businesses.

So Is This the Same as Lying on Your Taxes?

 Being a 501(C)4, not quite sure the Everytown For Gun Safety Action Fund can do this without some scrutiny, as this is WAAAAAAY outside of their primary “mission”...[More]

Of course, claiming that funding citizen disarmament equates with "gun safety" is a lie, too, but then again, what else do they really have to work with?

One 'Aw Sh**' Erases All Those 'Attaboys'

 Wells Fargo CEO apologizes for comments on finding qualified Black executives [More]

And he had been doing so well on all that "woke" corporate kowtowing...


Repurposing Petula

Don't poop in the subway, darlin'. [More]


Somebody needs to remake this.

Poor Little Victim

 He was shot in Kenosha, then received threats... [More]

What, the communist who tried to attack a teenager with his pistol? And now the DSM is presenting him as the injured heroic party?

Our Friends Across the Aisle

 Respect For The Second Amendment Should Not Be Partisan [More]

You're forgetting something, Jason. Or I should say, ignoring something.

It is impossible to support the Biden/Democrat agenda and be truly "pro-gun." 

Friends of the Devil

 LIBERAL GUN CLUB SEES UPTICK IN MEMBERSHIP [More]

Yeah? Who they gonna vote for? This guy?

And "In addition to experiencing a surge in membership, LGC saw a 20 to 30 percent increase in social media followers"?

So with <2,500 Twitter followers, noting those aren't necessarily "members," what kind of "surge" are we talking here? And why not talk actual numbers, unless they're typically deceptive "progressives"?

I suppose they're also "single issue"?

We're the Only Ones Crippled Inside Enough

Here's the backstory.

It's a Big Club and You Ain't In It

Law Firms Pay Supreme Court Clerks $400,000 Bonuses; New Study Confirms Their Influence With Their Justice [More]

Knowing how a judge thinks, what they will agree with, and what will trigger them, is key to wording a winning argument.

I'm not sure what could be done to offset the advantage that connection and access privilege affords, but there's no question that equality under the law is affected. Unfortunately, or more like it, outrageously, we can't trust the DSM to be watchdogs to keep an eye on potential conflicts unless it is against "conservatives."

The Voting Dead

 Election Watchdog Finds 350,000 Dead Registrants on Voter Rolls In 42 States [More]

Well if that doesn't justify sending in the military to drag Trump out of the White House, I don't know what does.

Teach Your Children Well

 CALIFORNIA SCHOOL DISTRICT CONSIDERS BAN ON CLASSIC BOOKS [More]

That is government censorship. That is totalitarianism. That is the state of the quality of far too many feeding at the public trough as they indoctirnate and poison young minds.

This makes me recall Fifth Grade-- I was attending a Christian school in Tehran, Iran (Dad was plant manager for the brand new B.F. Goodrich tire factory and we lived there for five years). If you look at my Fourth Grade class, it was hardly "intolerant" -- we had kids from all over the world and all the major religions and the bottom line was if you didn't like someone it was because he or she was a jerk.

My teacher was Mr. James Yowell, a Kentuckian as I recall, who had us reading Mark Twain, among others. For my 10th birthday, he gifted me a book and introduced me to John Steinbeck. His perceptive and caring tutelage really helped with the transition from mostly comic books and Mad Magazine to mostly classic literature and a love for reading.

I probably could not name a dozen teachers from all the schooling through college, and half of those would be negative memories. That's how meaningless to my life the overwhelming majority were.

Here's to the rare ones.  And the flames of hell with the book burners.

Speaking in a Language They'll Understand

A Utah company is giving up its suite at Jazz games, citing the players' decision to kneel during the national anthem ... The company also noted that it has licensed the suite for 28 years, paying roughly $6 million in ticket fees and at least $1 million for food and beverages. [More]

Bravo for SME Steel Contractors!

It's nice to see some are willing to stand up to leftists extortionists and important to let them know corporate courage is not only appreciated but needed now more than ever, especially when so many "capitalists" are out there giving away free rope.

'Abolish the Suburbs!'

 This is what the Democrats are defending.  [More]

Remember that the next time you see a Biden yard sign on a nicely manicured lawn.

Speaking of which, I saw one the other day that said:

COMMUNISM HAS NO HOME HERE

Guy'll be lucky if he doesn't get his window shot out at 3 A.M.

I recommend going grey man and doing your endorsing at the polls, that is, unless you have the wherewithal to use it as a lure...

We're the Only Ones Unnameable Enough

 Within 48 hours of filing his complaint, [plaintiff] sought and received a sweeping prior restraint: an order forbidding two Ohio citizens from publishing information about a public official arising out the performance of his official duties. [More]

I suppose if one had some time they could identify all the first/last name initial matches for job code 377...

Your Feel-Good Story of the Day

 Lady hanging out car window cussing out and flipping off Trump supporters promptly crashes car in front of police  [More]

I don't know that I'd use the word "lady"...

That and I'd rather have seen the video without the "enhancement."

One word for the driver of the SUV she hit: Whiplash.

'A Modern Prophet'

[A] Reform temple in New Jersey actually substituted the traditional haftorah reading on Rosh Hashanah ... for a reading, with the traditional haftorah tune, of some of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s writings [More]

So much for that "wall of separation"...

That's the same temple where the rabbi is part of a coalition that "champions" citizen disarmament edicts.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Values' Is

Nothing like being lectured on values by a home-wrecking adulteress!

Give that gal a billboard!

So When Do They Drag Him Away?

 Upon arrival to the scene, officers found two men lying in the front yard ... Police said preliminary reports indicate the two men attempted to force their way into the home and an altercation ensued with the occupants of the home. [More]

And what time do the riots start...?

‘Republican Voters Against Trump’ Long on Smears, Short on Transparency

 

That must be why “left-wing cash” is gratefully accepted by Kristol & Co. You have to wonder how many of the vacuous, first-name-only “Republicans” are aware of that. Or how many of them have studied the Democrat/Biden agenda on issues that threaten to eviscerate everything traditional Republican constituencies have demanded of their Party. [More]

A wholly-owned Astroturf subsidiary of bitchy, sore loser neocons and their leftist swamp cronies...
