Super Bowl LVI to Showcase ‘Fundamental Transformation’ with Celebrity Gun-Grabbers

What’s happening at halftime is actually a continuation of what Barack Obama called the “fundamental transformation” of the United States, something abetted by the NFL when it showed its trademark gutlessness over the national anthem. We’ll see that again when they include the so-called “Black National Anthem” at the start of Superbowl LVI. [More]

What self-respecting gun owner would subject himself to Mary J's bilge and Snoop's doggy-doo...?

Thank a Prohibitionist

 But murder is different. The three biggest drivers of murder are domestic violence, gang violence and the illicit drug trade. It’s pretty clear how the pandemic might have exacerbated domestic violence. And neither gangs nor the illegal drug trade is going to close shop because of a pandemic or government-ordered lockdown. Addicts don’t stop needing fixes. Indeed, the United States saw a massive increase in overdose deaths in 2020, suggesting a spike in demand for illicit drugs. Meanwhile, as cops fell ill with covid-19, cities also saw reduced enforcement and police presence in high-drug-trafficking areas. It also seems safe to say the supply chain disruptions that affected just about every other market in 2020 also impacted the illegal drug market. [More]

Just wait 'til all guns go black market. We ain't seen nothin' yet!

A Plan Comes Together

 A survey shows that U.S. adults, especially millennials, increasingly endorse Marxist views such as the rejection of private property and traditional morality... [More]

Considering what they've been immersed in from the start, I'm surprised they're not all raving Bolsheviks.

Truth and rationality have a quality all their own and I'm not ready to throw the towel in on them yet.

A determined minority 'n all that...

If Only the Gun Had Been Serialized!

Police claim a teenager accidentally shot himself over the weekend while trying to build a handgun out of spare parts and a 3D printer, a weapon commonly called a "ghost gun" because they do not require a license to own. [More]

If the kid trying to build it, he screwed up in a way that makes all that other hand-wringing irrelevant, meaning it's inserted to spook the ignorant. And since you don't need a license or registration to own a gun in Virginia it's fair to wonder if "Veteran journalist Bill Atkinson (he/him/his)" is simply representative of the quality of journalism we can expect on the topic of guns from USA Today (a Gannet Publication)?

Close the Poophole Loophole!

Vincent Nemorin was put in handcuffs after questioning the second grader's teacher at PS 193 Wednesday about why his son was allegedly left sitting in feces for hours ... He has an order of protection against him so Nemorin will not be allowed to drop his son off at school or pick him up until the matter is settled. [More]

Doesn't that mean he can't have guns now?

I don't suppose we can find out who the "teacher" is so we can verify her Democrat bona fides?

Shocking News

SAF FEDERAL LAWSUIT CHALLENGES NEW YORK’S STUN GUN, TAZER BAN [More]

I'm surprised that the state precedent doesn't take ...uh... precedence.

There's a lesson though -- the other side will not give up one inch without a fight to the finish.

I guess it helps when you have unlimited resources.

Speaking of Voter Suppression...

 Gov. Gretchen Whitmer vetoed several GOP voting bills Sunday she says aimed to suppress the right to vote. Republicans backing the bills assert the legislation would have protected election integrity. [More]

And We're ALL Domestic Terrorists Now

 MSNBC intelligence analyst Malcolm Nance said Monday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that the Republican Party was becoming an “armed insurgency.” [More]

You have to remember that for "progressives" every day is Opposite Day before that "intelligence analyst" bit makes sense.

Keep pushing, useful idiots, and I see a self-fulfilling prophecy taking shape.

Biting the Hand That Fed Him

 Eddie Gallagher Announces Pipe Hitter Foundation will Return Donations if Requested for Lt. Col. Scheller’s Campaign  [More]

And his wish is coming true.

The fatal tactical error Scheller made is in not realizing that Trump is an avatar for the people who voted for him because they believe in the agenda he campaigned on, so he in essence attacked them. For a guy who rails against divisiveness, that wasn't very productive.

 Now the school district wants to work with RPD to avoid arrests and create alternatives for non-violent offenses involving students. Also, leaders don’t want officers showing up to schools in full uniform. Instead, they will have a more laid-back look. [More]

Too many "disproportionate" takedowns, eh? Can't have that. And did anybody see anything about sidearms?

Ah well, the new dress code could have a bright side: Nothing looks worse than a guy in full uniform hiding behind a car while a maniac is inside slaughtering children.

“The allegations in this case are outrageous, and particularly troubling coming from someone we entrusted to wear a star and uniform,” said Boudin in a statement. “This case involves not only weapons, threats, and vandalism, but also sexual misconduct.” [More]

I'm waiting for him to list something out of the ordinary...

“As with all law enforcement requests, we have a rigorous process that is designed to protect the privacy of our users while supporting the important work of law enforcement,” a Google spokesperson said. [More]
