We're the Only Ones Unreflected Enough

Recruitment ads were purchased through Google and ended up on sites that do not reflect the City's values... [More]
Think of what that means for the type of enforcers they want.

We're the Only Ones Forewarned Enough

Police feared Odessa shooter was planning attack – 8 years ago [More]
I guess instead of observing the law for the outliers, it's easier to just preemptively infringe and to ignore due process for the rest of us.

And There was War in Heaven

The St. Louis NAACP, faith groups and civil justice groups are asking that a top official with the city police union be fired over statements about the city’s prosecutor... the groups wrote the union to say that Roorda’s comment incites violence. [More]
I thought that had been cured...

Looks like somebody needs more money.

Groundbreaking Junk 'Science'

CLINTON-ERA ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN DID WORK, ACCORDING TO NEW RESEARCH [More]
Not that we can expect Newsweak to let its readers know shenanigans were called on that over three weeks ago...

"Shambles?"

Curious, the propagandist they identify as an "investigative reporter" makes no secret of his subject matter bias, which evidently is a job requirement.

The Very Model of a Modern Inspector General

Others are more skeptical. While acknowledging that Horowitz is widely respected, these critics say his work has long been hampered by biases, conflicts and a tendency to play favorites... [More]
You don't say.

Just Like in the Good Old Days

But No One is Talking about Taking Your Guns

Brackney was given a chance by Congressman Greg Steube (R-FL) to correct the record if she might have misspoken, but she only doubled down. Steube pointed out that any firearm could be used to hunt people down, and Brackney responded by repeating the point. She only clarified that police and the military would still be able to have guns. [More]
The Founders had a term for internal subverters of Liberty like this. Domestic ...uh... hold on, it'll come to me...

'The Reports of My Death are Greatly Exaggerated'?

There have been several media reports today that the Administration will be pulling its nomination of Immediate Past National President Chuck Canterbury to be the next Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. These reports are false.  Chuck continues to have the full support and confidence of the President and his Administration.  [More]
If true, that's too bad. Some might say it's inexcusable.

Because it can only mean the president and his administration will continue to erode support and confidence at the time he needs it most.

Captain's Log

Stop Being Obtuse, Ted. The Answer is Right in Front of You.

“Now, the question is what do we need to do that actually works? And this is where I get frustrated with Democratic politicians in Washington,” he continued.  [More]
And this is where some of us get frustrated with our supposed representatives.  You know what's "necessary to the security of a free State," and it's not wasting more yet resources on people who have proven they can't be trusted without a custodian.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Inclusive' Is

Different Ability Appropriation

College Student Scares Off Potential Sex Attacker by Pretending to be Autistic [More]
"Tropic Thunder" comes to mind.

Actually, my first thought was to wonder why they couldn't try that at Lexington.

I'll be expanding on this over at AmmoLand in the article after next, assuming nothing pushes it back.

I Hear You Knocking, But You Can't Come In

10 Ways to Dramatically Improve Your Front Door Security [More]
And might I suggest an affordable portable option for when you rent or travel...?

We Used to Call Such Prescriptions 'Malpractice'

Gun violence is nowhere to be found in any of Dr. Adams’ list of top priorities. [More]
That's because it's not a medical issue, no matter how much agenda-fluffing gunquacks want to convince the ignorant otherwise.

I wonder how ol' Doc Skorton would do on this...

Be True to Your School

More than 300 boys and men, some as young as five and many in chains and bearing scars from beatings, have been rescued in a raid on a building that purported to be an Islamic school in northern Nigeria, police said on Friday. [More]
I wonder why Minister Farrakhan, CAIR, Linda, Ilhan, and Rashida haven't said anything about this...?

You Can Tell It's Mattel, It's Hell

This is all about social engineering. If @Mattel wanted to make a doll without defined private parts, totally fine, its been done many times and gives kids options. That’s not what’s going on here. This is social engineering masquerading as a toy. [More]
Hey. somebody's gotta condition the catamites for the day when being against sexually exploiting children will become an act of hate, with all that implies.

Oh, look, you can buy them for your little "6 years and up" inclusion experiment at the place that doesn't like guns anymore.

Ever hear the word "menticide"? Do you know what all the adults in your child's life encourage them to play with?

And remember what Mattel used to offer unmedicated / unconditioned boys, back in the days before "school shootings"?


And now if you'll excuse me, I'm late for the NAMBLA meeting...
