Gov. Wolf vetoes “Constitutional carry” gun bill for Pennsylvania [More]
And being rewarded for infringements has worked so well for his career that thirst-for-death Republicans are now saying "Hold our beer."

Unclear on the Concept
The shooter, 24-year-old Maliek Hargrave was a Western Michigan University student who pledged to help young people stay away from violence. [More]
This must be one of those stepping stones he's proud of himself over.

Tricks of the Trade
Basically, if an anti-gun Senator walks down to the floor tomorrow and asks the Senate to pass H.R. 8 by unanimous consent, and there is no pro-gun Senator on the floor to object, then gun control would pass. [More]
They'd have to do that because otherwise, there's a "2% chance of being enacted."
This is dated yesterday and they say if it's going to happen the Dems will try it today, so I guess there's not much point in my sending an appeal to gun-grabber Sherrod Brown. I wish GOA would provide a way to send these things to where they will do some good.
Actually, I wish representatives would be sending me alerts as opposed to me having to inform and then beg them.

We're the Only Ones Systemic Enough
Outrage Grows in Virginia Beach After Decision Not to Charge Cop Who Shot and Killed Donovan Lynch ... McCullom noted that the grand jury report found no evidence that Lynch ever pointed a weapon at Simmons before he was shot and is only alleged to have racked his gun as he hid behind the bushes. “A law-abiding gun owner with a license to carry that weapon would do exactly what Donovan did,” he said. [More]
Maybe an untrained one. I always roll my eyes when movies and TV programs show supposed trained operators rack the slide just before they engage. Hollywood scriptwriters...
And then there's this dilemma:
Simmons is a Black officer, but McCollum said he believes Lynch’s race played a role in the shooting.
So is he a traditionalist or a revisionist?

Half Empty/Half Full
This is an open letter requesting that you each lead — and whip — Congressional Republicans to take the position that 1) we will — at a minimum — not vote for a CR, or any other government funding legislation, while any federal COVID-19 vaccine mandates remain in place, and 2) we will — at a minimum — not vote for an NDAA if the provision drafting women is not removed, or removed and replaced with a provision ending selective service registration altogether. [More]
#1 I can go for. As far as #2, I say show 'em how "far" they've come. Unless major changes are made in military leadership and priorities, it's all noise anyway.

All the Warning Signs to Take Him In for Observation
Ethan Crumbley, his parents had school meeting over ‘behavior’ just hours before attack [More]
There is no way his parents didn't know he couldn't be trusted without a custodian.
Now watch their denial and failure get exploited to disarm all those with family members who have "red flag" allegations against them.

We're the Only Ones Staging Enough
During the criminal trial, prosecutors alleged the crime scene was staged and evidence was planted. [More]
They say that like it's a thing or something...

We're the Only Ones Demobilizing Enough
Tucson police officer terminated after fatally shooting armed man in mobility scooter [More]
Yeah, armed with a knife, and in a chair, and at a Lowes entrance where there is any number of items like carts that could be used to block and impede long enough to either talk the suspected shoplifter down or allow for time to deploy less-than-lethal options.
But nine to the back seemed to do the trick.
And "It could be at least a week until Remington will be officially fired"?
I wonder what would have happened to one of those citizens the Only Ones are complaining don't get involved if he'd done this...
Time for some vintage Lennon...

Still, it's fair to wonder about federalism, and what's the greater threat.
No worries: Those who gain power through societal destruction will get this shut down because of "disproportionate" results:

Well, We're Living Here in Allentown
Martinez has testified at three of those hearings, using Allentown — where 52% of residents are Hispanic or Latino — as his case in point... That area, District 22, encompasses most of Allentown and is represented by Peter Schweyer, a Democrat... [More]
And an anti-gun Democrat at that.
Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."

The Ozbot
Oz’s connection to Oprah notwithstanding, he may yet be amenable to reason vis-a-vis gun rights. From what I’ve gathered, through his appearance on the Hannity Show, he touches all the bases for conservatives. Let’s not jump to conclusions. Remember, he’s running as a Republican, and any Democrat will be antithetical to 2A rights. [More]
Is it wrong to think "operative"?
Because the alternative is hardly more flattering.

Even you obnoxiously "woke" ones. You didn't really think they don't have a tire necklace for you at the end of the day, did you?
The geniuses can't even do communism right. You're not supposed to make your supporters starve to death.
