Faking Bad
It's not about supporting the man. It's about supporting the promised agenda.
Which is why those of us who do are included in the attacks.
Go Home, Nothing to See
Court tosses NY case that could have expanded gun rights [More]As I've said before, all the Supreme Court has to do to let infringements stand is nothing.
It appears there are other cases waiting in the wings with the potential to chip a few flakes. Again as I've said before, don't look for unvarnished recognition of "shall not be infringed" unless and until there is a credible "or else" attached to the demand.

Correlation/Causation Redux
The Fifth Third shooting changed the lives of many Cincinnatians. Whitney Austin went from the vice president at a bank to the head of a non-profit, advocating for responsible gun ownership. [More]Perhaps someone can explain to me how handing out NSSF "safety kits" would have stopped this...?
And There He Kept Her Very Well
A man has been arrested after accidentally shooting himself in the process of threatening his ex-girlfriend with a gun... [More]I can't begin to tell you how many people I know who maintain fidelity that way.
There Oughta Be a Law!
Investigators say on Apr. 18, Hickson opened fire on a crowd of people from the inside a car near the intersection of Raeburn Lane and Randolph Place. [More]If only they would disarm you and me...
Schmuck Dynasty
When King was located, investigators say, he stated he was trying to see whether the gun's safety was on and it "went off numerous times" while in his hand. Authorities say he stated that he had been drinking vodka during this incident. [More]At first, I thought he might be one of those aninmaladjusted environmental cases trying to treat the teleFudds to their own medicine. I still don't trust his version of events and won't be surprised to see his lawyer argue the gun was defective and burst fired.
He's Got His
Howard Stern on Monday said he will support Joe Biden for the 2020 presidential election. [More]I guess when you "qualify" for a New York City concealed carry permit and can afford bodyguards, you're pretty much assured gun-grabs against the rest of us won't affect you.
Life's a Snitch
Maybe if We Were All in Individually Sealed Containers...
Yaneer Bar-Yam, president of the New England Complex Systems Institute and leader of the initiative, said the goal shouldn’t be slowing the spread of COVID-19 but to eliminate it completely. [More]Of course, that should be the goal. Whether it's attainable or not is what different locales will be experimenting with.
Hell, I agree that a goal should be to eliminate completely criminal violence committed with guns. How we get to there from here is where we run into the problems, particularly seeing all those experiments that haven't worked.
I go into default suspicion mode when the "solutions" being offered ultimately rely on armed coercion by state enforcers.

Correlation/Causation?
Covid-19 cases per million are 95% higher and covid-19 deaths per million are 126% higher in states with 5G. [More]I stipulate I am unqualified to weigh in on this with an informed opinion, but present it here for those of you who are.
I do question how 5G can be proclaimed "safe" when it hasn't been around long enough to determine effects in 10 or 20 years of mass exposure.

Monday Morning Quarterbacking
They allegedly stopped at one point to allow the men to pass, but the suspects also stopped. “He said the suspect grabbed him by the throat and said, ‘This is how it’s gonna go down,’” sheriff’s spokesman Ed Troyer said. The victim told deputies he was afraid for his life and shot the other man once or twice. [More]He should have been prepared by the time he stopped and turned. That way he might not have shot himself in the leg.
That said, it's like landing an airplane-- anyone you can walk away from is a good one.

Inslee Forgot to Say 'Please'
Fear or Prudence?
Freedom is Slavery
Jack Goldsmith and Andrew Keane Woods see the pandemic as a great opportunity to bring about more censorship along with surveillance of the public... [More]It's curious how many historically ignorant useful idiots don't realize the lime pit is for them once they're designated useless eaters. My money is on Jack and Andrew not being able to rat each other out fast enough.

A Formula that Works
Berlin-based newspaper Der Tagesspiegel and other mainstream media outlets described some of the protest organizers as “right-wing populists” and “conspiracy theorists.” [More]Then we should feel right at home there.
These guys do.
