The Plot Thickens

Firearms Concierge may not be who it was looking like. Then again...?

In his first TTAG post, he had a photo of a gun shop. Right clicking on the photo allows you to search Google for the image. The first hit goes here.

In and of itself it proves nothing -- they could have just used that photo. File it under "curious and merits exploration."

Regardless, TTAG should make special efforts to clear Zev Nadler.

ALSO: New speculation is that it's an FFL from Melbourne, and I've been told by someone I trust that it is him-- but because I can't provide definitive proof, I won't name him.

It Ain't Over 'til it's Over

Is a critical mass of "faithless electors" possible? Of course. [More]

Does your state have a requirement?

Is it likely?

Beats me.

If it happens, any claim to consent among many of the governed will be ripe for dispute. "It's time" could well become more than a saying.

My guess is the outcome of that would be even more stunning.

I see some complaining that anything but a straight climb to the summit is a sellout.

'Which 'People' would Those be?' Update

Stewart Rhodes gave a reply in an email thread regarding the CAIR official advocating "bring[ing] down the regime" that is well worth sharing:

Apparently "the people" only includes them, and not us.  Interesting confirmation of what the more radical on the left want (a desire clearly shared by their fellow travelers within the Islamist movements).  They want the same things.   Allies with a common enemy - the US Constitution, Western Civilization, and all of us "Deplorables" (anyone not them).   They thought they could destroy what is left of our Republic, and us bitter clingers along with it, through abuse of the electoral process by means of intentional mass immigration (both a massive influx of legal "refugees" and millions of illegal aliens) and massive vote fraud, along with a relentless campaign of intimidation/demonization of anyone with a different opinion (just get the numbers on election day, by whatever means, regardless of legality). 

But that strategy ultimately failed, so now these supposed "champions of democracy" are throwing off the mask and are tossing the "democratic process" in the trash, and instead openly call for violent revolution and overthrow our entire political system.  They are desperate enough now to try and get their way through "politics by other means."   Force, violent revolution, warfare.

They really should be careful about shoving open that door of open warfare.  Won't go well for them.  At all.  They are sadly delusional as far as their military capacity is concerned.   If it came to blows, they and all the useful idiots who follow them would be smoked in short order.  Especially now, since they lost the election and would be seen as illegitimate by the vast majority in the military and police.

Frankly, they are very lucky we don't actually want to do what they accuse us of.  But, if they keep at it, they will create their own reality. "

He Who Laughs Last ...

... laughs best:

Anybody see a one of these insufferable smartasses apologize? What they're doing instead is doubling down on their provincialism, and continuing to underestimate and misunderstand the nature and quality of their opposition.

They'd no doubt scoff at any reference to Sun Tzu, which actually works in favor of those they still feel superior to.

Cooper's Rule 4: Be Sure of Your Target.

It is NOT "Firearms Concierge" Zev Nadler. Please spread the word to stop targeting him for something he did not do.

A lot of people are assuming this gunkapo is Mr. Nadler due to him having a similar (one word vs. two) handle. I've provided a trail of corroborating links suggesting he is someone else, but at no time have I definitively said it's him -- rather, I have posed my speculations as questions and sent an inquiry to TTAG that has not been answered.

As for the guy all evidence points to, how he can do it from the slammer is a question enquiring minds want to know.

If they don't want to ID their writer, TTAG ought to issue a clarification notifying their readers who he is not. If they have, I don't see it after a cursory search, but will post a link update if any of you do.

Taking Care of Number One Update

Still no word from Robert, so I still don't know if this is all about some elaborate click bait post or if "Firearms Concierge" is serious. Ditto for TTAG.  [More]

Thing is, with all evidence pointing to him being who the clues point to, this adds another inexplicable and baffling twist:

SEE UPDATE. Some are assuming FC is FFL Zev Nadler due to sharing the same "handle." He is innocent. Stop presuming and attacking him.

There's a Lesson to be Learned Here

Kirk in Illinois said he wrote down David Petraeus for president, but he was easily ousted. Heck had ducked questions about Trump. And Ayotte had said he is no role model and withdrawn her support for the GOP nominee after the 2005 "Access Hollywood" tape became public. Clinton, like the Democratic Senate contenders, won all three states. Other Republicans who ran closer to Trump -- including Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson, North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr and Missouri Sen. Roy Blunt -- each won, aided by Trump's victories in their states. [More]

Good. We're stronger with that element self-purged.

Were I Trump, I'd be identifying, grooming and equipping supporters to challenge the deserters still remaining. Prominent among high-profile targets to be an example to others -- to get in line if not out of principle, then out of survival instinct -- would be this flake.

Sounds Like Justice to Me

They gathered up mobile phones and wallets, but as they prepared to leave near the town of Toluca, one passenger stood up, drew a pistol and shot the four assailants, killing their leader instantly. The three injured robbers stumbled off the bus, but the gunman followed them out and shot them dead at the roadside. Then he returned to the bus, handed back the passengers’ belongings and disappeared into the darkness. [More]

Promises to Keep

What? You're all staying? [More]

It surprised you that so many took your narcissitic threats as promises they could look forward to? And that, outsside your fan-fluffer echo chamber, so many normal Americans find you loathsome...?

Because it surprises, like nobody, that you're all talk, and liars at that.

Gee, another clueless, insulated and provincial group doubling down on stupid. How "progressive."

Take it away, Dan.

So It Wasn't Done by a Violent,Hateful Trumpster?

Police say possible suspect in shooting was described as a thin man in his late teens, 5-foot-8, wearing black, dark hoodie and saggy blue jeans. [More]

Great -- we know what his clothes look like and that, based on that puroposely-incomplete description, he could be "Mac"? Nothing else you can tell us about him, "progressive Authorized Journalists" (but I repeat myself)...? You know, in the interests of public safety...?  Or will that only be enhanced with Oregonian-endorsed gun owner control?

Something that's becoming increasingly evident -- all the usual suspects who were blindsided by Tuesday (especially including the #NeverTrump neocons) haven't learned a thing and are doubling down on their old ways.  Which, public trust-wise, can actually work out for those of us who blindsided them.

Yeah, I know Robert Vaughn was a "liberal," and I know the show was about globalist UN cops. Back then, we didn't think about such things -- perhaps that was a conditioning design feature, or perhaps it was just stupid, cool entertainment for kids.

Hell, I also watched The F.B.I. with Efram Zimbalist Jr. See, I tried to like big government.

In any case, this was a big part of my life, about the time I was also into Aurora monster models, Star Trek (a.k.a.  Space UN), Adam West's Batman and a universe of Marvel characters taking us places DC hadn't considered.  I had all the paperback Man from U.N.C.L.E. novels and this was an awesome favorite.

And there was this, from before the culture had become infected with anti-toy gun PSH:

A week ahead of the election, The Washington Post featured a little-known militia group called the Oath Keepers in its coverage of the dangers of a Trump loss. [More]

Come on, reporter Rachel Stoltzfoos: It's not a militia. And I'm sorry you don't know about them  -- you could always spend a few minutes learning, and, you know, ask...
