A Series of Unfortunate Events

 Man accused of dumping gun in Tampa pond after roommate shot to death [More]

I can just see a lifetime of poor choices leading up to where he was damned if he did call 911 and damned if he didn't.

A Classic Case of Projection

 In a footnote, the Government points out that Mr. Franklin also owns several firearms, which the Government contends "have long been recognized as being 'tools of the drug trade.'" [More]

In fairness, they are the biggest and most heavily-armed cartel controlling the drug trade in the country...

Speaking of 'Swarms of Officers'...

 At the direction of the Biden administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (“ATF”) appears to be revoking the licenses of firearm dealers for even minor paperwork violations ... Notably, “falsifying records” is a very broad category that can include making simple errors on the Form 4473... [More]

Gee, where have we seen that before?

Nothing about deliberate lies by the president's son...? Oh, that's right. ATF says that's none of our business.

If you're an FFL or have a friend who is, get help before you go hot.

One-Man Armies

 Gun law puts people at risk for harm at the hands of 'individual Rambos' [More]

He sounds like he doesn't realize Ohio has had permitless open carry without this happening. In any case, coming up with counterarguments to what are intended as insults is counterproductive, and the only response needed here is "No. Your move." In this case, feel free to add "you grinning dork."

And as long as he's going to cite AG Dave Yost as his authority, let's take a look at what the man told me:

5. Does the right to bear arms include the right for any peaceable citizen to carry them concealed without a permit, as in Vermont?

Just the same as any other constitutional right, the right to keep and bear arms is subject to very limited regulation. Citizens have the right to carry a concealed weapon, either without process, such as Alaska or Vermont, or under a non-discretionary, shall-issue licensing system with the license recognized by all 48 other states.

'Couldn't Have Happened to More Deserving F*** Face @$$holes'

 The National Rifle Association, defender of gun-loving maniacs everywhere, has confirmed that it did, in fact, get hacked by cybercriminals last year. [More]

Funny-- there's nothing to indicate this is an editorial opinion rather than a straight news story. If Gizmodo is so blatant about it here, how can anything they offer be considered objective?

And the title I used for this post is an actual quote from the article's comments.

They love to see people they hate hurt by criminals, don't they? Imagine how they'd cheer if this happened, with bloody casualties.

Looking Under the Hood-NIC

 Police say they are hunting two suspects after gunfire broke out Saturday at a car show in Dumas, Arkansas, killing one person and injuring at least 28, including several children. [More]

It sounds like the community will be in real danger until they're caught. I don't suppose giving out a description of the presumed armed and dangerous suspects and asking people to call the police if they see them would be of any community safety value...?

Y'know, if they disarmed you and me I bet that'd take care of the problem, don't you think?

On Leading Horses to Water

From comments under this post:
Not a single one of you even commented on the main thrust of David’s piece, which was the 2A and how that all plays into what you should think of how it applies to us and our milieu. 

Thanks, Herschel.

All we can do is what we can. But yeah, it can be very frustrating.  If I ever hang things up it won't be because of the outright antis.

Busting a Nutley

Taking Megan to School -- Not That She'll Pay Attention

 Nebraska Senator Megan Hunt Says Owning Guns Isn't a God Given Right [Watch]

Detouring to the general subject of RKBA-promoting videos, when I sent my question in for the Ohio Senate GOP debate, I also recorded one of me asking the question, which was one of the options Fox 8 News solicited. I decided not to use it but to just go with the written version. That's because, like the Dirty Harry line goes, 'A man's gotta know his limitations." Looking at it objectively, I don't even come close to the professional telepresence and projected personality that this guy does, not to mention the production values -- he knows his subject matter, knows how to present it, and really is interesting to watch at work.
