Sensing Weakness

Chinese State Media Outlet Says US Will ‘Abandon’ Taiwan, Too, ‘Once a War Breaks Out’ [More]

I think just about everybody in the damn world is having a Salish epiphany:


Maybe Team Dotard will be too overwhelmed to think about guns...

The Royal Road

...new pedagogy is required to increase access to underrepresented minority students.  [More]

She evidently never heard the story of Euclid and Ptolemy.

Two More in the 'Win' Column

 Two Hawaii Gun Regulations Struck Down [More]

I may have more on these later. 

I'm happy to see the one order in agreement with an argument I've made before against legal eggheads who have maintained Militia inspection requirements meant universal registration wasn't an infringement.  There's a world of difference between reporting for duty and proving yourself sufficiently equipped and giving the government carte blanche over everything you didn't bring.

The 'Right' Stuff

 Twitter Still Blocking Information on Crimes by Leftists”[More]

Well, yeah. A lot of work has gone into the narrative that "conservatives" are violent supremacists, and if people start learning the truth, think of the damage that could do to those who rule by lies.

At Least She's Consistent

 'Squad' Member Who Wanted to 'Cancel Rent' Received Thousands in Rental Income in 2020 [More]

She also wants to defund police while FEC filings show:

 The congresswoman spent nearly $2,300 and about $250 on security services from Massachusetts-based firms in January and March;  about $1,260 on security services from a Virginia-based firm in January; $675 on ADT security services in March; and $700 on security services from a Washington, D.C.-based firm in March.

And no, of course, she doesn't want you to be able to protect yourself. What's the point of being a communist if people can tell you "No"?

Imagine...

 ...anyone listening to a David Brock lickspittle about anything. [More]

If I was desperate, I could think of a worse-connected person to have aware of my situation and on my side than a U.S. Senator...

Well We're Living Here in Allentown

 Hispanics are now a strong majority in Allentown, Census numbers show [More]

Yeah, we can tell.

I wonder if the line about fathers still applies.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."

Speaking of Putting 'Weapons of War on the Street'...

 “I Don’t Have an Answer to That Question” – Pentagon When Asked if US Has Plans to Keep Weapons Out of Taliban’s Hands [More]

No worries. The new shot-callers anticipated the need for commonsense Caliphate safety laws.

[Via bondmen]

Written in Taliban

This was a war that you didn’t have the stomach to fight.  [More]

It's not that they're undefeatable. It's just that what it would take to "win" is off the table.

We're the Only Ones Unsecure Enough

 The Illinois State Police Firearm Services Bureau implements the Land of Lincoln’s gun control licensing schemes for the state’s residents. Their website, ispfsb.com, was hacked in recent days and gun owner data was compromised. Even a major software upgrade this past weekend has not solved the problem. [More]

No worries: They have a disclaimer of liability, so they're good.

One question: Will women still be able to access advice on vomiting and stabbing attackers with rat tail combs?

Getting Real

  Essentially, it was a slap to my face and the face of RedState, stating that neither I nor RedState amounted to “real journalism.” [More]

Been there, done that. From "legitimate credentials" to "non-media" FOIA put-downs, with plenty in between.

And even when they do respond, they're non-responsive to the request, loading you up with irrelevant crap you never asked for while redacting what you do want.

What's "real" that's needed is real reform, but with the current cast of characters in charge, I'm only looking for things to get worse.

We're the Only Ones Flagged Enough

 The San Diego Police Department (SDPD) filed a Gun Violence Restraining Order (GVRO) case against an officer arrested in Pacific Beach last month accused of using his personal weapon in a threatening manner outside of a bar while he was off duty, NBC 7 has learned. [More]

See, this is why they don't want non-"Only Ones" to be armed in bars  -- if we successfully defended ourselves, he wouldn't be able to stagger home at the end of his shift.

Not that you or I would ever be able to show "good" enough "cause"...

[Via Jess]

Because Black Lives Matter!

 Willis said both men are members of the Bloods gang and both face several counts of violating The Georgia Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act. [More]

Murdering little girls is a hell of a way to show unity.

He Went Attaway

But for some unknown reason, Judge Desean Jones freed Attaway again last April. [Watch]

He's told us the reason. It's intentional. He's a socialist who wants to piss as many people off during his time in office as he can.

If the "real reporters" don't inform the electorate that they are being put in danger on purpose to further a subversive agenda, how do they expect to have an informed electorate?

Oh...

Forget It, Jake. It's Chi-Town...

 Authorities are investigating after police say two young girls were shot, one fatally, on Chicago’s Northwest Side. [Watch]

Note to CPD: When you call it "gun violence," you deflect blame and in effect make excuses for the monsters. I also note he says they were alerted by Doesn'tDoSquatSpotter, the scam David Chipman was pushing before he got his domestic enemy gig at Giffords -- and naturally, the perp was long gone by the time the cops showed up.

UPDATE: 
Chicago weekend shootings leave 52 wounded, 9 dead, including 7-year-old girl gunned down in parked car [More]
So it was a slow weekend...
