The Issue About Which We Dare Not Speak
Massie regrets that he sees leadership believing it's "better if we are not on record at all on certain issues." [More]Yeah, like RKBA in DC. Don't want to get that electorate disapproving of Republicans, do we, New Yellowstain?

I Wouldn't Be Going to Baltimore Right About Now...
Freddie Gray case: Officer Caesar Goodson Jr. not guilty on all charges [More]On the plus side, it looks like opportunities for outdoor shenanigans may prove problematic, at least for a while:
The weekend's a different story...
Gosh, what is it about Democrat strongholds, and why do they always seem to want the hated overseers to nonetheless be the "Only Ones" armed...?
UPDATE: Yeah, when the rain stops, things look like the provocateurs intend to heat things up:
What Does He Know that We Don't?
Thing is, I pretty much do this too with cameras. [More]
As for that bodyguard thang, I wouldn't begrudge him access to whatever means of personal defense he deems appropriate except for him making things more difficult for those not in his strata.
I guess the fact that this guy is one of the richest oligarchs in the world is something I just can't wrap my value-based sensibilities around. I keep coming back to a grammar school sentence that places me firmly in a different age, because our masters act like we've evolved beyond such basics:
Good thing we don't need industrialization any more, especially since my factory worker and foreman/manager years are far behind me.
Say, who wants to play Candy Crush Saga...?

Oil, steel, and wheat — these are the sinews of industrialization.I don't think I ever saw that attributed to an author.

About Those Red Warnings
Oh look, I got a corporate non-response and washing of the hands over global giant Microsoft warning potential visitors against proceeding to this blog:
It's more than annoying -- noting that the reason given in Microsoft SmartScreen FAQs for the warning is an assessment of fraud or malicious software, and that such decisions to so characterize a website are made by employees/agents of Microsoft, it may even be libelous.
No, I'm not going to go to Bing.com and ask a general question of those with no skin in the game -- I'm looking into other options if this issue persists. So far, thankfully, most who contacted me on this say they're getting through OK. That said, this needs to be nipped in the bud NOW, lest all it takes is for some anti troll snitch to make an anonymous "report" and shut down alternative media.

The LaPierre Doctrine
Now, as so many times in the past, the NRA is aiding and abetting the gun grabbers by publicly stating that the victims of the Orlando massacre should not have been armed. [More]A-yup.
Sometimes they don't even Negotiate Rights Away -- they just hand 'em over as a gift.
Any prags care to try and defend this inexcusable betrayal in our time of need? I dare you.

Been Down This Road Before It Seems
“The number of non-Defense Department federal officers authorized to make arrests and carry firearms (200,000) now exceeds the number of U.S. Marines (182,000)”... [More]Oh, I remember those grievances:
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.What happened last time?
Oh, yeah: The damned fools came for the guns.

Guns for Me But Not for Thee
New York Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel says members of Congress “deserve” and “need” people with firearms protecting them in the U.S. Capitol building, but he does not want law-abiding residents in his own district to be armed for self-protection. [More]He's got a point, at least about anyone irrational and immoral enough to vote for this in-your-face-corrupt POS.
