Gun Banners ‘Ghost Gun’ Hysteria Prevents Real Solutions to Stop Violence

Yeah, by all means, let’s everybody run around in circles screaming about “ghost guns.” [More]

Keeping everyone distracted from what actually works guarantees a continual fresh supply of blood for the gun-grabbers to dance in.

It's Not 'Self-Censorship' if It's Done in Fear

 UVA student's New York Times editorial on self-censorship sparks debate on social media [More]

I'd say it's more like it sparks murderous fury from communists.

If her opinion on "ritual suicide of Indian widows trigger[s] anger ... and awkwardness," I don't think some of my titles would go over very well...

We're the Only Ones Bulletheaded Enough

 NYPD sergeant dubbed 'Bullethead' costs city more than $1million in lawsuits after being sued 46 times, with 24 lawsuits settled for illegal arrests, raids without warrants and unconstitutional street stops [More]

Sounds like that nickname could be prophetic.

ar15.com has the document files and a video titled "ATF Lies to Cops!!" [More]

Shared Characteristics

 Extinct Squid-Like Creature Named after Joe Biden - Spineless, lifeless, and ancient. [More]

So it's a taxonomic aptronym...?

We're the Only Ones Weighty Enough

 Video shows chaotic scene as RPD officer confronts Richmond woman [More]

Well, they certainly defused that situation skillfully and proportionally.

Every one of those guys looks like a walking coronary.

Every one.

A Matter of Priorities

 Pitt May Have Harvested Live Babies’ Organs [More]

Big deal. It's not like they were buffalo or anything...

Teaching Tomorrow's Subversives Today

 Nineteen UC-Hastings Law Faculty Object To University Statement In Support Of Free Speech After Ilya Shapiro Shoutdown - “the Administration’s community email, The College is Committed to Academic Freedom and Free Speech, does not represent our priorities” [More]

It's pretty clear what those priorities are.

I can't think of a job I've ever had where I could publicly speak out against my management and not get fired. Of course, I've always worked in the productive sector...

The Beto Diet

 This new low IQ diet will put you in a state of 'Betosis' which will help you shift away from individual freedoms and after a few months you will freely give up your guns. [More]

These idiots swear by it.

Digging Their Own Graves

 The University of Florida has named a study room after Communist Manifesto author Karl Marx, who the university calls a “philosopher, radical economist, and revolutionary critic.” [More]

Do the useful idiots think they'll be treated differently when their usefulness is over?

 NYT Reporter Says 'Ton Of FBI Informants' Were At J6 - Calls Traumatized Fellow Journos 'Bi*ches' [More]

Post-"Insurrection" Stress Disorder neurotics disingenuously clutching their pearls at the obvious set-up of lured low-hanging fruit...

We're the Only Ones Squabbling Enough

 Vaccaro has complained that the officer was rude during the stop, and didn’t have a mask on ... Vaccaro claimed that St. Louis Police Chief John Hayden offered to have the tickets fixed... [More]

An "Only One" vs. an entitled gun-grabber... it's tough to know who to root for.

We're the Only Ones Color-Coordinated Enough

 A Florida police chief has been given the boot after an investigation found he engaged in discriminatory promotion practices, and remarked “That wall is too white” when looking at pictures of the department’s command staff. [More]

Gay and "mixed"? Lawsuit in 3...2...1...

We're the Only Ones Objecting Enough

States move to roll back firearm permits, over police objections [More]

But "the rank and file" love us, right? 

Anybody got a comprehensive list of who?

They Can't Hear You

 Floridians could openly carry firearms in public and wouldn’t need a permit to carry them concealed under legislation that now has the endorsement of Governor Ron DeSantis. There’s one problem though… The bill hasn’t received a single hearing in either legislative chamber. [More]

The Republican's response will be proportional to how loudly their constituents tell them they want it. Otherwise, expect some to safely posture knowing they won't actually have to change anything.

It's kind of an M.O.

There's a Bad Moon on the Rise

 The amount of economic and business operations tied to the web is staggering. Even if the internet was to go down for a mere two weeks, the repercussions to our markets and to our supply chain would be devastating. By extension, the benefits to the globalists would be immense. They could implement filters and firewalls on any part of the web they don’t like (including the alternative media) and claim that this is to protect the internet from possible sources of viral spread. They could whittle the web down to only a handful of approved corporate and government sites all in the name of protecting the integrity of the net. [More]

Somehow, the lyrics seem prescient:

Much Ado about PR

"We Want AR-15s" - GOP Nassau Executive Announces Gun Drive To Send Weapons To Ukraine [More]

Doing the drive before figuring out State Department sentiment, arms export permitting requirements, and logistics strikes me more like a politician's hollow publicity move than anything.

The Curtis Reeves Media Tour

This need to have people agree that he was justified could be his undoing, and you can tell from comments he's getting very little sympathy. You can bet the widow's lawyer has transcribed every public statement the guy has made to try and build a civil case against him like she already has against the movie theater.

No Safe Spaces

 Married couple's throats slashed while riding bikes home in 'vicious and gruesome' murder [More]

I wonder how many times the monster has been caught and released back into the wild.

I also wonder why, in Florida, the victims weren't cycling while armed, and note the story says the husband wasn't driving "because he was drinking," which then makes me wonder if they were also victims of "commonsense gun safety laws."

Then there's:

And obviously, it was a man and a woman, so it makes you think even the both of us are [thinking], 'How safe is our neighborhood?'"

The real question is, how safe are you?

Sharon Tate lived in one of the safest neighborhoods in the L.A. area -- until it wasn't.

I Know Him Not!

 The nonsensical and craven reason that follows this shameful message is typically something along the lines of, “My boss will get mad at me” or “My professional peers will have a problem with my speaking up.” It’s never even, “I have bills to pay.” [More]

Did I just hear a rooster?

Deferred Status

This time they're showing deference to the right people.

I see Bohacek folded. When are Hoosiers going to do something about Brown and Glick?

UPDATE: If you're having problems seeing embedded tweets, here's what this is about:


AzCDL CCW Renewal Delays

 The Arizona Citizens Defense League continues to receive complaints from members about extremely long delays by the Department of Public Safety in processing CCW renewals. Many members want to know who they can speak to about the delays but our understanding is that DPS has not been responding to e-mail or telephone requests for status. [More]

Make the requests public.

Speaking of Cognitive Dissonance...

 Now, as gun-control supporters increasingly set their sights on gun owners, gun-rights supporters must marshal that same passion to combat the more complex anti-gun campaign to expand prohibited-persons categories. [More]

What, like the kind that could be caught up in NRA-endorsed "Project Exile"?

The Not-So-Happy Hunting Grounds

One said: “It is a senseless killing.” Another wrote: “He better eat or give away all that meat or else this was a wasteful kill.” One declared: “What a **** sport. Killing a BUFFALO! Just for FUN!” Another noted: “What kind of a childhood does someone have where that’s his lifelong dream?” One quipped: “So masculine, so tough.” Another tweeted: “Ah yes. Let’s kill a ‘near-threatened’ animal for sport and brag about it.” [More]
Good for Derek Wolfe. And with an arrow is really something. He's not much on kneeling, either.

As for "near-threatened," don't tell us, tell Ted Turner.

The hostile and ignorant responses to this make me wonder how many Fudds for Biden are buffalo-brained enough to believe their continual place at the Democrat table is assured.

Kiwis' Big Adventure

 Cases in New Zealand are now over 430,000% higher than when CNN explained how they “eliminated COVID” with strict lockdowns [More]

I can't really feel sorry -- or much of anything -- for people who voluntarily surrender their freedom.

Different Story, Same Routine

Man shot and killed after argument at baby shower in Hawthorne ... The gunman was described as being a man in his 20s who was invited to the party by friends. He fled the scene after the shooting... No further details were immediately available. [More]

Are any really needed?
