We're the Only Ones Inactive Enough

 Law Enforcement Officers Fired for Inaction in Parkland Shooting Get Jobs Back, Vacation Pay [More]

If someone says you should call the police instead of having a gun, just reply "Miller, Stambaugh, and Eason."

That is if you're not comfortable with the two-word response that starts with "F"...

We're the Only Ones Disciplined Enough

Va. police agencies oppose bill requiring release of officer disciplinary records [More]

Well, there's a shocker.

If the big concern is management is not going to do its job because it will make their numbers look bad, then that's a pretty good indication of where the rot starts.

We're the Only Ones Going to the Dogs Enough

 The Police Dog Who Cried Drugs at Every Traffic Stop - Cops laugh about “probable cause on four legs” but the damage to innocent lives is real. [More]

I'm sure it's the same with "ghost guns."

Those who laugh are thugs who deserve a day of reckoning.

A Public/Private Partnership

 Purge at the Pentagon: Outrage as Defense Secretary's woke race adviser plans trawl of military personnel's social media for 'extremist and concerning behavior' - using private company to circumvent the First Amendment ... Babel Street, a company that sells social media monitoring software, is the front runner to carry out the surveillance [More]

So that makes them economic fascists and defense-weakening subversives...?

It Damn Well Can Happen Here

“It can’t happen here” is a political cliche in the United States. Regardless of your personal viewpoint, there is a vast swath of the American population who simply do not believe in the possibility of any kind of totalitarianism in the United States. It’s worth noting that throughout history, in virtually every place that totalitarian regimes have arisen, the residents of these countries felt the same way. [More]

It's happening around us every day.

Anti-Gun Brit John Oliver Exemplifies Self-Serving ‘Dual Citizen’ Oxymoron

 

A common gun owner reaction to both Oliver and Bee: If they don’t like it here, why don‘t they go back to where they came from? The answer you’ll get back: Because they became American citizens. Kind of, but they hedged their bets. [More]

These foreign nationals didn't really mean it when they swore an oath to "absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity" to their former governments, but just mouthing the words did the trick and got them in while they undermine the Bill of Rights for fame and fortune.

Media Betrayal

 These young men and women were the elites of their trade. These young lawyers and journalists were supremely well educated. They had been to some of the top law schools in our country. After they graduated, their personal ability and work ethic let them advance quickly. [More]

Yet, thanks to the DSM, they were misinformed. 

That opinions are formed in such an environment is calculated and counted on.

Backing Down or Regrouping?

The old guard who were replaced had a collective tantrum and Findley and Hansel stepped up to seek revenge. As you can imagine, normal people were outraged by this sick display of petty vengeance and let the turncoats know.  [More]

A lot about the character of the establishment Republican "leadership" has been revealed by this. The questions now are, will any principled candidates step up to challenge the weasels, and if they do, will gun owners back them in any meaningful way?

A Mugged Liberal

 St. Louis attorney Mark McClosky made headlines in October when he defended his property with a gun after BLM protesters entered their gated neighborhood. Now McClosky is running as a Republican to replace retiring GOP Sen. Roy Blunt. [More]

Now that she's out there badmouthing him, I wonder if anti-gun Democrat Claire McCaskill is going to return the donations he sent her:

We're the Only Ones Housebreaking Enough

 NYPD cop’s dog slept in heated room while son froze to death in garage ... At the heart of the prosecution case is medical evidence that Thomas Valva died of hypothermia after being forced to sleep in a freezing garage on a 19-degree winter night allegedly because he soiled his pajamas. [More]

Any question why the poor child was so traumatized he wet himself?

And would anyone bet against there being other abuse victims in this punk tyrant's dealings with the public?

Give Them What They Want

 Hotel Manager Fully Complies With Armed Robber, But He Murders Her Anyway [More]

But...but...but Portland's armed "Only Ones" say:

It is important to remember two things: Robbers want one thing – your money or property ... Give the robber what he or she wants and do it quickly...

What if what they want is your life?

There are evil, power-driven, and protected elitists who say the solution is to make sure you're disarmed -- that there are others stupid enough to believe them and amplify their demands is something I'll never wrap my head around.

Solidarity Statements

Lightfoot Heavy-Handed

 

[More]

Looks like a lawsuit to me, but to try would probably result in being "canceled"...

The Company He Keeps

 

Everytown exists because of a man with friendly relations to the Chinese Communist Party [More]

Gotta do something about those "human rights violations," dontcha know...

TMI

 Rapper T.I., wife Tiny investigated after sexual abuse allegation [More]

Say it ain't so! Not anti-gun "gun criminal" T.I...

A Taxing Experience

A U.S. tax court judge has ordered the Internal Revenue Service to disclose if it criminally investigated the Clinton Foundation. This ruling was part of an ongoing case involving whistleblowers who have long alleged wrongdoing on the part of the charity that bears the name of former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. [More]

Seems we were just talking about case studies on how not to run nonprofits. Say it all turns out to be true -- who thinks either one will be held accountable and gone after with the same bloodlust?

Makin' a List and Checkin' It Twice...

 "And Harris herself tracks political players and reporters whom she thinks don't fully understand her or appreciate her life experience." [More]

How she rose from her knees to just a heartbeat away...

Beyond Control is More Like It

 Portland gun violence ‘beyond a public safety crisis’ [More]

"[G]ang-related shootings [and] groups retaliating against other groups 'for perceived grievances'..."?

Hey, what about these guys...?

It's almost like "progressivism" results in chaos, misery, and fear...

Leading by Example

 Why I use the NRA as a case study for how nonprofits shouldn't operate [More]

True, plenty of leftist nonprofits have their share of trough-feeders being just as self-serving, and the lefty prof could have highlighted SPLC or Bloomberg, but that's why it's so wrong for NRA to even be in this position -- the side ostensibly championing freedom needs to set the example for how truth, integrity, and honor are paramount.

Unfit for Duty

 Space Force CO Who Got Holiday Call from Trump Fired Over Comments Decrying Marxism in the Military [More]

Probably one of those "white supremacists" we're hearing so much about these days...
