If Past Practice is Indicator, ATF Correspondence in Rare Breed Case Will Show Much

Imagine what the discovery is going be like in the trigger case???? [More]

Email excerpts from an earlier case show how vengeful ATF functionaries will do anything they want -- even if they know it's wrong -- if they really want to rule against you. 

Funny, Who They'll Try That With

 North Korea Restarts Weapons-Grade Yongbyon Nuclear Reactor Halted Under Trump [More]

What do they know about American "leadership" that Democrats don't?

What's Wrong with This Picture?

 Too often, those left behind to pull the pieces of broken families back together are the women, like Rosheda Murray, a single mother of five. Her youngest son, Jarrod, is nine. His father was murdered. [More]

So I take it by wording it that way that he wasn't the only father in the picture?

What does this have to do with me and my rights, again?

Good Call

 Former NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch, a rising right-wing radio star, doesn't care if you call her a murderer [More]

More likely she doesn't care about the opinions of lying morons who would do that.

Same Old Story

 That enmity tracks largely (though not exclusively) along lines from previous elections. [More]

So Democrats are unhappy with non-Democrats. What else is new?

So Much for Respect Being Earned

 Namely, uniformed personnel and military retirees are prohibited from disrespecting senior government leadership (e.g. the President, Vice President, Congress, Secretary of Defense, Service Secretaries, etc.). [More]

I wonder if fawning praise that some could interpret as sarcasm is allowed...

Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Lloyd Austin, and Mark Milley are the finest, most honest, and competent leaders ever!

UPDATE: Going to where the site I linked to got is information, this could be limited to members of the Office of Naval Intelligence.

Mutually Exclusive

 Brazil's Bolsonaro Says Everyone Should Buy a Rifle [More]

Naturally, the communists have a different idea, and it looks like there may be enough stupid voters to help them make it happen.

He Can Help Them Get Those Rates Up

 Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, who has presided over skyrocketing violent crime, a lead crisis that imperiled children, and a city with some of the nation’s worst racial disparities in poverty and other areas, was nominated by President Joe Biden to be the ambassador to Luxembourg. [More]

He ought to fit right in. They have so much in common.

[Via bondmen]

Let the Punishment Fit the Crime

 Antifa militant and accused "ringleader" Jason Charter, alleged to have committed various serious crimes ranging from destruction of government property to destruction of a veterans' memorial, has pled guilty to the much lesser federal charge of disorderly conduct on restricted grounds. [More]

That and he fought with police?

Seems fair. It's not like he's Ashli Babbitt or anything.

[Via Roger J]

It's Never ALL Bad

 The incompetence is stunning. [More]

Before being too hard on them it's important to remember that not everyone is upset.

The Finest Racists Money Can Buy

The FBI, already under fire for its handling of FISA warrants and confidential informants, is enduring more scrutiny as the Justice Department admits agents failed to disclose to a court that they had paid — to the tune of six figures — a white supremacist publisher for years to be an investigative source. [More]

Project much, Chris?

Teaching Tomorrow's Woke Tyrants Today!

Washington, D.C.’s top prep schools implement “antiracism” curricula in lockstep. [More]

And when they're all grown up ... I don't know why I suddenly thought of Pinkley...

Incited Mob Morality

 Trump's Supreme Court just showed why court-packing is necessary to save U.S. democracy -- Law professor Stephen Feldman explains why court-packing should be defended on both moral and political grounds [More]

Democracy! Just like the Founders intended!

[Via Michael G]

Point/Counterpoint

 Point:

A Missouri judge just ruled in our favor. This time we won defending a new Missouri law protecting our #SecondAmendment rights. St. Louis City & Co, Jackson Co & the Biden administration sought to strike down #SAPA… they were unsuccessful. #2A

Counterpoint:

Fun fact: A dismissal is not a win. The judge dismissed the case because of a pending remedy at hand, actually 2 separate pending cases. These are co-suits with the DOJ arguing that MO can’t nullify federal law.

As much as I hate to admit it, she's got a point. I owuldn't be breaking out the champagne just yet.

New York, New York, It's a Wonderful Town!

Dad grabs dying 24-year-old son’s gun after shootout with off-duty NYPD and opens fire...The dad has around 60 prior arrests on his record on charges including drug possession, assault and weapon possession, source said.  [More]
They ought to put such people on an island or something. Oh, wait...

[Via Remarks]

The Solution We've Been Waiting For

 Police say the suspect in Friday’s school shooting, 13-year-old Juan Saucedo Jr. brought the gun from home where it belonged to his dad. That man, Juan Saucedo Sr, was accused in a 2018 shooting in the pick-up line outside Highland High School. [More]

Obviously requiring you and me to lock up our safety would have prevented all this!

 Bruh ... they dragged him out ... Haha! [More]

The brainwashing is damn near complete.

Unintended Consequences

 The Russian Ammo is gone... It will BACKFIRE on the LEFT GLORIOUSLY... Here's how... [Watch]

Let's hope. Two concerns:

What's produced in other countries can be sidetracked by State.

Craft beer is typically a lot more expensive.

My Kind of Razzmatazz

Untraceable ‘ghost guns’ are a threat. It’s time we banned them [More]

Right. Because then this would stop happening.

How cause-and-effect-challenged must one be to sit on the "CST Editorial Board"?

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

[Via Jess]

Intended Consequences?

The question is worth asking because if Senate Democrats get their way, they’ll weaponize S230 reform to target online gun marketplaces. Conservatives urging repeal of Section 230 are playing right into their hands. [More]

Yow.

Now what?

[Via DDS]

Tangentially-Related UPDATE:
But applied to entities such as Facebook that handle millions of items of third-party content a day, the laissez-faire approach threatens free speech by concentrating unchecked censorial power in the hands of a few companies.  [More]
So "Damned if we do, damned if we don't" is the best anyone can come up with?

[Via Michael G]

Trouble in Paradise

 Survivors and advocates say they are frustrated that Biden has failed to deliver on his campaign promises to try to curb gun violence. [More]

Not that what they're demanding would...

Still, it's always nice to see thwarted control freaks sputter.

Chippie Off the Old Bloc

While Washington, D.C. was riveted Jan. 6 on events at the U.S. Capitol, the FBI quietly released a trove of files from an "urgent" — yet seemingly controlled — investigation 60 years ago into Nancy Pelosi's father. [More]

Hey, it's not like a bred communist domestic enemy in control of the House of Representatives is news or anything...

[Via Jess]


Under the Hammer

 Director Marion Hammer used her email list to attack the “hateful” article and encouraged list members to vote in the poll. [More]

Actually, the article did not share my cynicism. I think the companies involved chose an answer they could all use that would least alienate customers.

Also from NRA in Danger:

Again, call me cynical when it comes to some of the rsigning director excuses I've seen. Case in point...

'Some Reasonable Relationship'

That the complaint acknowledges "And they are, moreover, exactly what they would bring to service in militia duty, should such be necessary" is something I hope to see emphasized. Miller left us some tools that far too few ever pick up and use.

UPDATES:

It looks like several election count-related tips were sent in over the weekend, so I'm going to use this one as an aggregator and update the post as I get to them.

Horrors!

How many gang-related killings do they commit each weekend?

Funny-- a grenade is featured prominently in the accompanying illustration but not even mentioned in the story. It's almost like they want to create an impression for effect or something.

What can I say but "Mother Jones"...?

Shhh...

“The National Rifle Association will continue to lead the way to preserve our rich hunting heritage within our shores and indeed across the globe." [More]
