Crap on a Cracker

 Mayor Adams apologizes for calling white NYPD officers ‘crackers’ in 2019: ‘That was inappropriate’ [More]

I wonder if that excuse would be good enough for a white Republican politician who did the same thing going the other way...

Not really.

What She Said

 

[More]

A-yup.

And a tweet as well.

So when are the "gun groups" going to write articles and tell their members about ATF asking a judge to order "case closed"? When are Republicans going to look into what kind of directions are being issued from the top, and by whom?

Deliberately Ignoring the Cure

 First of all, there is no problem the US currently suffers that could not be solved merely by obedience to the Constitution. It’s really as simple as that, which is why the Constitution has been edged out of relevance over the past few decades. [More]

And that's why I think Con-Con promoters are so wrong.

Help Wanted: Inquire Within

 Richmond’s Mayor and Police Chief are out with a multi-part plan to address rising gun violence in the city. That includes hiring violence interrupters to make progress where police can’t. [More]

A Strategic Defense Initiative?

 Police in Ottawa see signs that guns have been brought into a truckers’ protest against vaccine mandates that has paralyzed the Canadian capital, the police chief said on Wednesday, adding that calling in the military would pose major risks. [More]

So they really are a deterrent against tyranny?

Besides, why shoot them and risk public outrage when you can round them up, control the narrative, and Gitmoize them one-by-one after this breaks up?

GIGO

 The Virginia State Police entered every person into the NICS database with a PCA “J,” marking the potential gun buyer as federally prohibited. The 41,000 residents prohibited from buying a gun by state law should have been marked with a PCA “D.” The Virginia State Police software developers didn’t account for the difference in VA state law and federal law into consideration when coding the software.

Hey, they caught the problem in a year. What could happen in that time?

Looks to Be Every Bit as Successful as Prohibition and the War on Drugs

 The US government is to crack down on homemade guns bought and sold without records amid a surge in gun crimes. The Justice department will open a national "Ghost Gun Initiative" to pursue federal charges against those involved in the trade of such weapons, President Joe Biden has said. [More]

So look for a record year in urban violence?

Those "community heroes" sitting behind him certainly inspire me to "back the blue."

And the Shameless Lies Just Keep on Coming

 Biden: Gun Manufacturers Are ‘The Only Industry in America That Is Exempted From Being Sued’ [More]

Part of what we discussed was Democrats trying to blame the disastrous effects of their policies on guns.

Welcoming the Stranger

 Then last week, authorities tracked down the individual they believed to be responsible for the swastikas and arrested 34-year-old Mexican citizen Geraldo Pando. His arrest record was obtained by The Washington Examiner which reported that "Pando had an extensive, 35-page criminal history in Colorado before he arrived in the District of Columbia recently," and that Pando had been deported twice before.

Sounds like they won't be happy until he kills someone so they can then feed, clothe and house him on the productive citizens' dime...

Opponents Need Not Apply

 Candidates and elected officials complaining about election fraud would be slapped with a gross misdemeanor charge, fine, and/or jail sentence under a plan by Washington’s far-Left governor Jay Inslee.

“If they are tried and convicted in the appeals court, the case reaches the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces. If a service member is convicted in this court, they would likely receive a dishonorable discharge, a bad-conduct discharge, or, in the case of an officer, a dismissal.”
