NRA Files Bankruptcy, Moving to Texas

National Rifle Association says it has filed for bankruptcy as part of restructuring [More]

Here is what they are telling their board:


So the board doesn't have to be consulted on this in advance or anything?

 Leftist Thug Targets Roger Stone’s Handicapped Wife for Vicious Attack in Own Neighborhood [More]

I received a tip on this earlier today appearing on a site I do not know. I passed on it out of an abundance of hard-learned caution and because I did not see it appearing on Google's Newsfeed.

I still don't as of this posting

Your Vulnerability is Required

 A New York lawmaker is attempting to seize body armor from civilians and would make it illegal to buy the protective gear in the state. The bill from assemblymember Jonathan G. Jacobson (D.) would outlaw the sale and possession of body armor in the state of New York. The bill would require residents who own a bulletproof vest to turn them over to police within 15 days of the bill becoming law. It would make New York the first state to ban the purchase or possession of bulletproof vests for law-abiding residents. [More]

Meaning "Only Ones" exempted, of course.

Can we at least have butt shields?

Can you imagine being Jonathan G. Jacobson?

With 'Republicans' Like These, Who Needs Democrats?

 Former Oklahoma GOP Congressman Mickey Edwards said that he is leaving his party because it has become a “cult” led by President Trump. [More]

Don't let the door hit you in the @$$, gun-grabbing has-been.

Looks like Heritage and the ACU will let anybody in. Kind'a like the "Big Tent" GOP that's so filled with RINOs there's no room left for elephants...

Too Little Too Late

IT BEGINS: Trump to Declassify 'Foot-High Stack' of Obamagate Documents [More]

Considering some have been speculating on proofs of high treason and pols on Epstein's pedo island, this seems pretty weak tea, and pretty easy for a motivated media and a Democrat Congress to ignore.

Too Big to Fail?

Representative Cheney has aligned herself with leftists who are screaming that what happened last Wednesday is the “worst thing ever in our history” (or similar such claims). That is absurd and shows their lack of knowledge of history as well as their willingness to skew the facts to further their corrupt agenda. The Democrats are using this to smear the entire conservative movement and all Republicans. By voting to impeach, Representative Cheney is helping them in that effort. [More]

What, they expected contrition from someone with her "A"-list connections?

Well, There Goes MY Sunday Evening...

 The swift takedown of Parler by Google, Apple, and Amazon Web Services, together with the deplatforming of Donald Trump, Trump supporters, and conservatives, should be a wake up call. We have organized this virtual event on an emergency basis. Waiting for them to come for you no longer is an option. [More]

Sunday, 7 to 8:30 pm Eastern. I just signed up and gave them a small donation.

Survey SAYS...

Poll: ‘Civil War’ expectations reach new high, 71% of Trump voters [More]

Yet vindictive Democrats keep expanding who will be caught up in their Punish Now and Shun Forever revenge net, with the effect of drawing more and more into it who may just have committed the grievous offense of not passing the arbitrary commie-worshiping litmus test du jour.

Those making war on the Republic appear to be ignorant of Clausewitz's assessment that "without public support, no war can be conducted successfully."

So by all means, new and vicious Jacobins, keep pissing more and more people off.

Point/Counterpoint

 Video analysis suggests 'agitators' provoked shooting of Ashli Babbitt at Capitol - FBI maintains: 'No credible intelligence suggesting Antifa involvement' [More]

One thing we can determine for certain is they both can't be right.

Speaking of Fake News

 Assume nothing you read is true ... Why is this being published at all? ... The all too perfect choir ... The inconsistencies ... You’re not allowed to dissent ... The wording ain’t Right! ... People acting at variance with what is being reported ... [More]

And not just from the DSM. I get tips all the time from "our side" that are impossible to verify and in many cases are easily shown to be false with just a minute's worth of checking. Passing stuff along without question has been a pet peeve of mine for a long time

And yeah, even with precautions, I still get snookered good once in a while.

Stands to Reason

Did They Get Out in Time to Vote Democrat?

 Bail fund promoted by Kamala Harris won't share records of alleged criminals it sprung from jail [More]

As a general practice, I can't say I mind, especially with the way "progressive" lynch mobs can form, but once arrests for further victimizing crimes are made, that merits public cognizance.

It's Like He's Trying to Get Something Right But Doesn't Quite Know How

 PIERS MORGAN: Trump must be held to account - but Biden must stop this insane McCarthyite witchhunt against everyone connected with him before it sparks a new civil war [More]

  1. "Held to account" for what, precisely?
  2. And where would we be if Piers had his way?
  3. I'll agree that this witchhunt is insane, but let's stop demonizing McCarthy.

Do Give Them Space

 In a statement released by the family, they say that “many details regarding Wednesday’s events and the direct causes of Brian’s injuries remain unknown and our family asks the public and the press to respect our wishes in not making Brian’s passing a political issue.” [More]

Pesky Facts No Reason to Correct a Useful Narrative

 Blake’s admission contradicts past statements from his family and attorneys, who denied that he had a knife in his possession when police shot him... [More]

I guess some must be exempt from "fact check" disclaimers and under no obligation to issue retractions or help simmer down those they heated up...

How Dare You Make It About Protecting Your Guns When We Make It About Taking Your Guns!

 Over the past few decades, this has meant transforming some of our most complicated and urgent social problems — crime, natural disasters, political instability — into a question of gun rights. [More]

Oh, like those weren't precipitated by gun-grabbers trying to deny rights when citizens needed arms the most...

Does she really want to hang her thesis on Katrina?

They really do hate the thought of anyone defending himself.

I wonder what Jennifer Carlson, or anyone at the WaPo for that matter, would be prepared to do about it if -- right now -- she heard shots followed by people screaming and running outside her office. Thank goodness billionaire owner Jeff Bezos would have more options!

Purging the Purgers

 States can bar large social media platforms and online service providers from discriminating against their state’s residents based on their lawful political statements or affiliations. Such laws could even allow Big Tech to continue deleting dangerous material, etc. if they wanted–so long as the standards were applied neutrally across the political spectrum. That way, someone could sue for ideological discrimination, and if they presented evidence of a similarly “problematic” account or tweet that was not deleted, they could prevail in court. [More]

Add being able to sue if "fact-checkers" libel a post by calling it false and let's talk.

An Idea Whose Time Has Come

 Marvel Comics Called to Retire 'Punisher' After Skull Logo Worn by Capitol Rioters [More]

Hell, I call to retire him simply because it's a product of anti-gunners profiting off a vigilante "gunmurderer." 

I see they're also condemning everyone in Captain America t-shirts. Except for these guys, of course:

But it's not a bad idea: How about if those inclined to engage in such group activities wear shirts with rope-selling capitalist logos?

And There is No New Thing Under the Sun

 Mariana uncovers a supply chain of American firearms being smuggled into the hands of drug cartels, fueling record levels of gun violence in Mexico. [More]

Gee, where have we seen the media hand-wringing over that before?

You can't watch it unless you tell them your "TV provider," and since I don't have one, it looks like I'll need to rely on your comments to find out if I missed anything.

WarOnGuns Correspondent "Bondmen," who sent me this link provided his review:

The iron road she calls it, meets with all the players here and in Mexico and ends with an ATFer in Phoenix who's about to retire. Makes a play on emotions at the end to solidify feelings against all the guns coming from America killing all the Mexicans, with their fingers on the trigger. Same problem we have in our inner cities in many respects, turf wars, revenge, and all too often, silence.

Proximate and ultimate causes abound. I focus on the dope user in America whose filthy lucre greases the wheel that turns day and night supplying the goods so strongly desired here by users; the greed of operators in Mexico who want to control it all so warring on others there who want the same. Guns are the tool. What would they use if they couldn't get the guns? Blades, bombs, ropes, compound bows - the work would be up front and close for sure.

The prices paid in Mexico for firearms is astounding. Saw only firearms and no ammunition change hands in her expose.

It made me think about the demoncraps in district of corruption who were so deathly afraid of a few unhinged rioters in the Capitol last week. Oh boy they haven't seen anything until they see how bad it is in Mexico with state actors and cartels going at it in spades. The state surrendered and now they admit Mexico is a Narco State. What does that make US now I wonder, besides a burgeoning one party Commie State?

The cartel enforcer - sicario - she talked to at the end who works for El Chapo's son - check out his eyes when he talks. Spooky, cold, cool killer there with many a notch in his young belt. These young guns have few economic opportunities that compare to working for local drug lords where they get great excitement and fast, heated action along with a feeling of belonging.

Throw the Bum Out!

 Republican Congresswoman: 'On Jan. 21, I'm Filing Articles of Impeachment' on Joe Biden [More]

To be immediately followed by censure and then this:


Substitute "her," of course...

Anybody know her? I'd love to be able to get her to look at the Hunter Biden gun story and get her to include that as a point of dereliction, where a "gun control" president countenances deliberate subversion of the enacted federal background check system because it involves his son, but wants to make it "universal" for the rest of us.

And yeah, I realize that will mean "President Kamala." Anybody have any doubts that's where this thing is heading anyway?
