Just Gimme a Second Here...

 The fingerprint reader unlocks the gun in microseconds, but since it may not work when wet or in other adverse conditions, the PIN pad is there as a backup. [More]

That's all I need to know.

That and this stupid glove idea.

I'm thinking this should be an article but it'll take me a while with previous efforts already in development and with some serious contenders for my time that have been emerging from meatspace over the past couple of days.

We're the Only Ones Going Enough

A court upheld the firing of 2 LAPD officers who ignored a robbery to play Pokรฉmon Go [More]

That they would do it and then appeal it proves and proves again how unfit they are.

I Can't Answer That

 Because you don't know or you're not allowed? [More]

Will someone who can answer be called up, or is Ted just trying to score forgiveness points here without actually uncovering anything damning?

Dumb and Dumber

 In her 10 years serving in the state legislature, Pettersen said several issues have risen for her as critical: mental health, gun safety, education and opioid addiction. [More]

I guess the main question I have is "How stupid would you have to be to vote for this?"

I guess electing Ed Perlmutter already answered that for us.

If We Want Your Opinion We'll Give It To You

  Emory University’s laudable free speech promises mean nothing to the Emory Law Student Bar Association, which denied recognition to a free-speech-focused student group because open discussion could cause “harm.” [More]

Preparing them for the real world, I see...

Unintended Consequences?

 That means that this bill, whatever it says now, can be completely rewritten into whatever the Democrats want, as long as it still relates to “firearms.”  Just imagine the damage they can do. [More]

One wonders how that escaped seasoned politician Greg Smith's notice -- or if it did. Having to beg him to fix this makes the whole thing look suspect.

Riding the Tiger

 The penalties are up to 30 years imprisonment and a million dollar fine. Everyone who touched the offense — the LaPierres, Ackerman, the NRA personnel who worked out the deal and signed the check — are on hook for some serious consequences. If ever a postal inspector, other LEO, or the US Attorney for Virginia or Oklahoma or Texas alerts, everything will hit the fan. [More]

To the people who still ask why Wayne won't just resign, the simple truth is he can't.

What Makes Him Such an Authority?

 AP source who 'fact checked' Mass Formation Psychosis theory encouraged 'behavioral nudging' people into Covid compliance, quoted Goebbels [More]

So he learned from the "best"?

Southern Comfort

A “realistic” guerrilla war will be fought across two dozen North Carolina counties in the coming weeks, with young soldiers battling seasoned “freedom fighters,” according to the U.S. Army. [More]

So, who do you think they're getting ready to fight?

One of my favorite films comes to mind. Figures Provincial Paulene didn't get it.

We're the Only Ones Unwarranted Enough

 The footage of Camallo's warrantless home entry might be an even bigger headache for the BRPD that the public strip-search. This was his third such search in under three years. He has since been demoted, but he's still with the department. [More]

That's enough to make you wonder what he has on them.

So Much for the Courage of Their Convictions

Madison Cawthorn Mocks Maddow Producer Who 'Worried' He Would Want to Go on Show [More]

WarOnGuns has obtained exclusive MSNBC audio.

So all this bluster about having a "national conversation" is just that, and the only thing they really want is to control a forum where they can dictate the demand for our surrender and we don't get to talk back?

A Very Particular Set of Skills

I had the "opportunity" the other night to finally watch The Marksman.

We've visited this money-maker before.

Anti-gun in real-life Liam Neeson plays an Arizona rancher/former Marine sniper intent on getting an "unaccompanied minor" illegal alien to his relatives of unknown legal status living in anti-gun Chicago.

Spoiler alerts aplenty follow.

Just to show how ignorant scriptwriters are about the laws Hollywood types are desperate to pile on, when stopped by a cop in pre-"constitutional carry"Texas and asked if he has any firearms, the Arizonan admits to a handgun under his seat and a rifle in the back of his truck. But he assures him they're both "registered."

Being pursued by cartels who came across the border -- legally, with visas -- he stops at a brick-and-mortar gun store in Oklahoma to buy more guns. Apparently being from out of state is no problem. The FFL tells him the system is down, so he has to come back the next day. He assures the FFL he needs them and is not a criminal, inducing the man who has his whole life tied up in his store that he isn't being played, which is all it takes to get the man to tell Neesom OK, he'll just "report them as stolen."

A bit later he figures he needs to teach the kid how to shoot and does so without eye and ear protection, and ends up handing the child a gun to keep on his person.

Once in Illinois, just south of Chicago, the FOIDless Neesom engages in the grand finale gun battle with the cartel and then drops the child off with said unknown-status relatives who, if any reality can be injected into things at this point, will no doubt raise him so that, once his "pathway to citizenship" has been bestowed, he will grow up to become a "gun sense" Democrat politician.

I haven't been this unimpressed with Hollywood's "knowledge" of gun laws since that crappy Death Wish remake where Bruce Willis buys a new machinegun from a Chi-Town gun store.

The stuff that dreams are made of, indeed...

Thank You for Flying Sharia Air

 The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined a bid by a former ExpressJet Airlines Inc flight attendant, who is Muslim, to decide whether her lawsuit claiming she was fired for refusing to serve alcohol to passengers belongs in arbitration. [More]

So she wouldn't have served the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)?

Gun Prohibitionists Hacks Going All-In to Disarm the Legally Innocent

It might be relevant to ask why such an obscure effort rates major national exposure in a premier, nationally-heeded newspaper, but anyone who has followed the symbiotic suckfest between oath-breaking politicians, the DSM, and the violence monopoly cultists sees this happen daily. Plus, we’ve all been exposed over the years to plenty of Astroturf presenting itself as popular grassroots demand. [More]

And the correct response to those who demand we obey insane totalitarians is...?
