Media Allies Blame Guns to Distance Democrats from Crime-Enabling Policies

In any case, what The Washington Post has done here is given out talking points to help spread a desperate, pre-midterms Democrat narrative: It’s not catch-and-release of chronically violent, entitled sociopaths as a means of expediting “cultural transformation” that’s the problem here, it’s your guns! [More]

An old subversive is up to old tricks. They're all he's got.

We Were Just Sitting Their Minding Our Own Business Telling You What to Do...

 “The hatred for Democrats is just unbelievable,” said Tim Holohan, an accountant based in rural McKean County who recently encouraged his daughter to get rid of a pro-Joe Biden bumper sticker. “I feel like we’re on the run.” [More]

Tim, have you ever asked yourself why?

Banking to the Right?

 Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) spoke to Breitbart News this week, noting that banks in his state are lined up to do business with firearm and ammunition manufacturers who want to do business in Oklahoma. [More]

In today's Age of Corporate Woke, I'd feel better if the banks signing on to this would declare who they are.

We're the Only Ones Hoplophobic Enough

 In the body camera footage, which led to a six-figure settlement late last year, it is not clear why Pham pulled his gun. [More]

Because he's an "Only One"?

Taking Credit

 ‘Pause & think about what a TOOL you are’: Eric Swalwell tries taking a victory lap for Democrats claiming they ENDED COVID and ROFL [More]

Actually, don't laugh. He got the talking points out. And ratioing notwithstanding, more of his constituents will believe and repeat them than will ridicule them.

That's Some Principled Opposition

 Senate RINOs Mitt Romney, Jim Inhofe, Lindsey Graham, and Richard Burr ‘No Shows’ for Vote Defunding Biden Mandates [More]

I'm sure they're all looking forward to voting "Aye" for whoever he nominates to the Supreme Court.

Your Tax Dollars at Work

Medical students may get up to $20 million for committing to provide abortions [More]

If you think of it as a way to step back as wealth redistribution recipients, "mostly peaceful protestors," useful idiots, and Democrat voters preemptively reduce their own numbers, a call to Mr. Benny might be in order.

Hey, sorry if that sounds monstrously offensive -- I was just trying to give proper credit to the patron saint of feminists (at least until they decided she needed to "disappear").

Week of Subversion

 America’s Largest Teacher’s Union Holds ‘Black Lives Matter In School Week of Action’ Across America [More]

Yeah, Democrats gotta stick together, at least until it's time for the Bolsheviks to give the Mensheviks "what for."

Are they gonna tell the kids about this?

 'This Is Evil': Canadian Government Announces What They Can Do to Protesters' Pets [More]

There will actually be those who are more outraged about this than about what it can do to people.

We are the Federales. You Know, the Capitol Police...?

 "No Valid Reason" To Withhold More Than 14,000 Hours Of 'Jan. 6' Video: Defense Attorney [More]

To channel our old amigo Gold Hat:

Valid reasons? We ain't got no valid reasons. We don't need no valid reasons. I don't have to show you any stinking valid reasons!

We Won't Be Needing THESE Anymore...

 The Illinois Department of Corrections is making plans to downsize. Prison populations are decreasing... [More]

How does that square with this

The year of 2021 ended as one of the most violent on record in Chicago, as a rise in the number of shootings left more people dead than in any single year in a quarter century...

Oh...

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

The family of 15-year-old Sincere Cole, who was fatally gunned down near a Chicago Lawn gas station, is pleading for witnesses to come forward. Cole was shot 24 times while he was heading to the gas station at Western Avenue and Marquette Road Saturday evening for snacks. [More]

He was "trying to get his life together"? And was his "entrepreneurship" deemed "better than knocking an old lady in the head for her purse" sanctioned by the gas station owner and welcomed by his "customers"?

Speaking of Misleading People

 The average Facebook user might now be inclined to click the link “see why,” which redirects to a so-called “Fact Check” article from USA Today—rather than the full story from its original source. Interestingly enough, when scrutinized, USA Today’s so-called “Fact Check,” which labels our claim of a partial national gun registry as “missing context,” makes eleven FALSE statements and eight statements that are MISSING CONTEXT. [More]

Who better to be arbiters than ideologues?

Because Nothing Says 'Safety' Like Ignorance

 Opinion: Republican legislators want to mandate that Arizona kids take a gun safety class. They just don't want to actually do anything to keep kids safe from guns. [More]

Like teaching them safety?

And gee, "Joe Camel." Is there anything these hacks say that's original?

Lead Story

 "We got samples from ... California..." The California Department of Fish and Wildlife already requires hunters to use non-lead ammunition... [More]

So how did that specific subset do?

We've been down this road before, we've seen the extremes they would extend things to, and we know the usual suspects and the motives behind it.

The other thought that strikes-- did idiot Fudds for Biden really think they'd be safe?

Malice Aforethought

"It's funny the more trouble Trump gets into the wilder the charges and conspiracy theories about me seem to get ... As an aside, they're getting awfully close to actual malice in their attacks."   [More]

What do we expect an Alinsky aficionado to do but resort to "man's most potent weapon," Rule 5 ridicule, and make not-so-veiled threats?

It's not like the DSM is going to do anything but ignore, minimize, or reframe Durham and amplify her deflecting accusations.

The Tiananmen Solution


 Ottawa Police Chief “It is now unlawful to protest against government, 100 checkpoints have been established” [More]

Now think of who not only has no problem with that but welcomes it, and their positions in politics and media.

What is it about colonies that didn't win independence by casting off tyrants?

"Aussie govt frying protestors with LRAD."

BREAKING: Media Could Possibly Be Biased!

Maybe we’ve reached a point where loyalty to an ideological position takes precedence over loyalty to the full, accurate and fair truth. [More]

Ya think?

More COVID-Related Deaths

 This comes out clearly in a recent report titled, “Militia Failed to Obey Covid-19 Lockdown, Killed 24 Christians Observing Government Orders.” According to it, a group of Islamic terrorists “wielding AK-47s and machetes … killed twenty-four people, who were observing COVID-19 lockdown orders”—and, as such, were sitting ducks. [More]

On the plus side, the killers observe mask protocols.

We're the Only Ones Excessive Enough

Two Lawrence County Sheriff's deputies and a former prosecutor in District Attorney Brent Cooper's office now face criminal charges ... It follows an investigation into the excessive use of force by the deputies and a cover-up by the former Assistant District Attorney. [More]

Ever notice the "few bad apples" always seem to be "systemic"?

Fidelito

[W]hat is far more important is that whatever the true story of his parentage may be, in bringing authoritarian rule to Canada, Justin Trudeau has now shown himself to be the ideological son of Fidel Castro. [More]

And just because leftists say it's debunked doesn't mean it really has been.
