When Assault Dildos are Outlawed...

According to a lawsuit filed last week in Kane county, two employees dressed as clowns and wielding “adult toys” approached the victims and three other minor children in the business’ parking lot. One actor, identified by police as Robert Keller, 23, of Algonquin, had an adult toy in his hand that he began waving and poking the victim’s minor child with, the suit said. [More]
What kind of right-wing throwback would be against poking kids with faux phalluses? "Progressive" adults who have Evolved encourage and promote it.

One for the Road

Today, Governor Corbett signed SB 1239, which effectively changed section 3802, so that the maximum sentence that can be imposed upon an individual who, during a first or second DUI, refuses to provide blood or breath testing, is five years, which consistent with most misdemeanors of the first degree. Accordingly, those individual who are now convicted under the amended DUI Code will be prohibited under 18 U.S.C. 922 from possessing or purchasing a firearm, regardless of the sentence imposed.

Because the rest of your pussified diatribe is nothing but a lame cover for ceding all moral responsibility to defend yourself and your charges to the "Only Ones" if evil ever visits. If you'd be incapable in a school situation, why should you be trusted anywhere? Does something magical happen when artificial property lines are crossed?

And why should any parent who loves their children trust them with a useless, gutless excuse-maker like you?

If I were an FFL and you came into my gun store, I'd tell you to get the hell out, and I'd probably use a different word than "hell."

Jeb Bush presidential bid would turn off principled activists, help Hillary

Curiously, one politician who agrees with Jeb and Grover and Michael and Rand is presumptive Democrat presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton, someone who is trying to establish a political dynasty of her own. Evidently coached with the same talking points, she declares herself to be a “huge supporter of immigration reform and a path to citizenship.” [More]

Reichstyles of the Rich and Famous

Yesterday’s Publicola revelation that anti-gun billionaire Michael Bloomberg has personally contributed another $285,000 to pass Initiative 594 in Washington state suggests that the former New York mayor will stop at nothing to push his brand of restrictive gun control into law across the country, worried activists suggest. [More]

Where do we respectfully and maturely send campaign contributions, again?

By the way, thank that fascist Kilmartin, who, as a retired "Only One" enjoys certain privileges and immunities far beyond those of mortal men. By lumping NRA in with "right-wing groups," he has inadvertently cut the legs out from under so-called "pro-gun Democrats."

Not that so-called "pro-gun Republicans" like this disrespectful ingrate are worth a damn.  Still, he deserves a sort of thanks as well, for once more helping to illustrate how NRA members continue to be played by their hirelings, who also appear to be doing their best to torpedo a national shift, and all that will go with one.

‘Armed American Radio’ premieres ‘Hickenlooper Blues’

With outside moneyed interests like Michael Bloomberg’s deceptively-named “Everytown” doing everything they can to protect their political interests from gun voter retaliation at the polls, particularly after the ouster of two anti-gun politicians and the resignation of another to avoid being recalled, a convenient and fun tool now exists to help roll back the Astroturf. “Hickenlooper Blues” produced by grassroots activists at no cost and without authorization or participation by any candidate or political committee, throws radical Saul Alinsky’s “Rule 5” ridicule right back in the faces of so-called “progressives.” [More]
This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report notes perhaps it will be Hickenlooper, instead of his gun owner constituents, who ends up singing the blues.

Tonight on Armed American Radio

Host Mark Walters will be broadcasting from Crossbreed Holsters headquarters
in Republic, MO, joined by Crossbreed's Trent Cooper and Carol Craighead for the entire program.

It's going to be a special program tonight, with the premiere of a fun and truthful video that could play a real role in Colorado's gubernatorial election. That's up to you. I won't let the cat out of the bag here, except to say I'll also be doing something I've never done before: Simultaneously publishing a Gun Rights Examiner report to give the backstory on a project I've been working on with others over the past two weeks.

Here's the lineup:
  • Hour One: Alan Gottlieb from the Second Amendment Foundation will talk about the dueling Washington State initiatives and upcoming elections. I'll come on in the second half of the hour along with Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Peter J. Gould and Colorado gun rights activists and musicians Cyd Lantz and Dave Simpson. 
  • Hour Two: New York gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino; Economist and author John Lott; Human Events Guns and Patriots / AAR Washington Editor Neil McCabe.
  • Hour Three: McCabe; Charles Heller of Liberty Watch Radio; competitive  shooter, instructor and armed mother Amber Kunao; Sarasota Herald Tribune's "The Gun Writer" Lee Williams; "Black Man with a Gun," Rev. Kenn Blanchard.
It's going to be a packed and fast-paced show. I'm real excited about it, and encourage you to listen in and tell your friends.

DOJ and ATF appealing ‘No Angel’ Dobyns' court settlement order

With yesterday’s appeal notice, a new and expensive legal battle for Dobyns begins, just when he thought he was ready to put this chapter behind him and move on.

For his part, Dobyns pledges not to quit. [More]

Chances of honest cartel reporting ‘Slim’ to none

If there’s anyone who should be able to stand up to the cartels, it’s Carlos Slim, the Mexican billionaire, from 2010 to 2013 ranked the richest person in the world. Slim owns a substantial piece of The New York Times, after having invested $250 million bailing the paper out in 2009. If ever there was someone positioned to encourage courageous journalism, to solicit/pressure government cooperation, and to bankroll the security needed to investigate and report on cartel terror, it’s this guy. And why wouldn't someone who has much of his holdings in Mexico not want to do what he can to improve his native land, the lives of his people, and the climate for prosperity and growth? [More]

‘Interstellar’ patrons deserve clarification of McConaughey’s gun comment

Too Much, the Magic Bus

Anybody get one of these?  It got kicked out into my junk folder. You can click the graphics to enlarge them.


If you did, of course you know better than to click on the embedded link.

I doubt it actually came from the Bloombergians. They never did notify me when I asked them to let me know when the bus would be in town--although I did get some emails from someone who said he was with the tour and would sell me the schedule.  See?

Unfortunately, the IP for that went to BulletMail/Yahoo in Sunnydale, so further tracing was problematic. And no, of course I had no intention of paying someone obviously setting out bait, but it is nice to know they employ such principled people.

The IP Address from the first email's source code goes to a site for the National Laboratory for High Energy Physics (KEK) in Japan.

Whomever the malevolent mind behind this obvious attempt to lure recipients into a malware trap is, the fact that my edress was selected for this particular bait leads me to suspect this is more directed than random.  And while I don't suspect an authorized Everytown plot, I do question how secure they have kept their email lists.  You'd think with a billionaire behind them, their precautions against such hijacking would be first class.

But that's all vulnerable to the quality of people being employed, isn't it?  And as you can see from my bus tour mercenary, that's pretty obvious.

What we have here are misfits who hate themselves and deal with that by lashing out for attention at everyone who recognizes them to be demented freaks. What hell these tormented broads must visit on everyone they encounter who is not similarly afflicted.

Still, they are useful inasmuch as they illustrate to the general public revelations about "feminists" and "progressives" that spill over to encompass those who keep their cards closer to the vest. It's always revealing to see those who can't and won't control themselves demanding controls on the rest of us.

These are the ranks Bloomberg draws his more hard core shock troopettes from.  We should welcome such "quality" in the enemy camp.

But don't worry: If we don't know who they are, we can't see them. And if we can't see them, why, what's the problem?

An Inconvenient Truth

As disappointed as the gun confiscationists must be at the facts of this case, they (especially those in the state of Connecticut) should pay attention to this truth -- if you start a civil war by raiding heretofore law-abiding Americans for their politically-incorrect firearms, you will not be able to defend against the 4GW attacks that you spark. And, I daresay, the folks who come after the warmakers and decision takers in righteous self-defense in the context of an American civil war that the gun raiders start will not be addled, inadequate jihadis.

Walking Through Lothlórien

After putting in several hours yesterday, I took a stroll with my wife before starting a draft for a deadlined article that would keep me busy well into the night. It was a beautiful fall afternoon, cool, but with blue, cloud-laced skies and face-warming sun, and magnificent trees, many that still have not shed most of their multi-colored leaves.

On days like that, particularly with a lot of gold in the branches above, my imagination on such wanderings puts me in the realm imagined and described by Tolkien -- not the one populated with Peter Jackson's CGI-enhanced feminelf action warriors, but the one my mind's eye envisions from the author's printed words.

I wish I had more time to read (for pure pleasure). I wish I had more time to walk.

Some of the trees are starting to give up their leaves in greater numbers now.  That means hours of raking this weekend, a process I will be repeating over the next month. Perhaps it seems contradictory, but I look forward to it.  When I get into it, as with all repetitive physical efforts, ideas come, with untroubled thoughts that interest me, and throughout it all, my mind reaches a level of peace -- what I imagine a Zen state to be like. Yeah, it may seem a form of Condition White, but it's not like unfamiliar things are within sight or earshot, and any change in the surroundings would rouse me from my reveries.

Still, I'll bet Celeborn never had to rake leaves, and Galadriel never called him in to help unload the trunk after a trip to Sam's Club.

Break's over. Time to armor up and hunt down some marauding orcs.

To Reach the Unreachable Star

This reminds me of a story I heard long ago about a polling place back when civil rights were trying to be enforced, and  black citizens showed up wanting to vote.  The sheriff had a jar of beans and said they had to guess how many were in it. [More]

One of the big problems with provincial tyrants getting away with this crap is they incur no personal liability. That is, until someone snaps, but they often take it out on the wrong people.

If we had a true Justice Department,  Cathy Lanier would be behind bars.

Why isn't there a Freedom  from Atheism Foundation?  After all, beliefs that come with no proofs are also ones of faith.

Agnostics, I can respect.  Atheists, at least the obnoxious Prozi misfit mad at the world for their own social inadequacy kind, who take an absolutist position they feel compelled to impose on everyone else, I do not.

We're the Only Ones Panty-Raiding Enough

Thank goodness "Homeland Security" doesn't have any actual homeland security issues to deal with. [More]

You know, aside from treating some of us like domestic extremist threats...

One thing: If I had a newspaper, with reporters, and resources and everything, I'd consider it in the public interest to name some names besides the victim.

Who ordered the raid? Who participated in it? Who sought the warrant?  Which judge signed it? Were other agencies involved?  Who, by name, and what role did each play?

Then I'd go on to other details, like why was DHS involved with this? What else do they have their fingers in that bears no relation to their chartered mission?

Did the Royals try to resolve this without having the goons sent in? You know, have someone just call the lady up and explain why if they let one person use their logo, it opens the door to losing control?  Maybe thank her for cooperating and send her a ball cap, or else follow it up with a cease and desist letter from corporate lawyers if she sounded resistant?

What the hell is this show of force over this?  What the hell has become of this country, when that's the official response and most people just shrug and move along?

That is, unless there's more to this story. I can't tell from the linked piece.

Really? It's their property?

I've been meaning to put some time into this story, along with taking a look at how the CoE at times stands the supposed subordination of the military to civil authority on its head. Based on juggled balls already in the air, that'll have to come another day.

We're the Only Ones Tossed Enough

While I have a tough time buying into the contention of the gun-grabbing Seattle PD that the new use of force policy violates their 2A, the judge's "rationale," that we have a right to keep and bear arms, but just not to use them, defies any benchmark for sanity. [More]

Funny, though, how these guys turn to the Constitution when it suits their purposes.

Still, it does highlight a point more in government need to realize -- it just doesn't "protect" us from them...

We're the Only Ones Breaking Bad Enough

Since the manhunt began, Tully has been stopped and questioned by law enforcement officials as many as seven times in a round trip. The stops have always been simple until last week, when an unmarked law enforcement official from an unknown agency forced Tully to the ground by gunpoint, drove his knee into Tully’s back, demanded to know his name, and then threatened to, "break him." After Tully provided identification, the officer continued to badger him until a state police trooper arrived and told the officer on Tully’s back that it wasn't Frein. [More]
So: What was the thug's name?

I guess it's a good thing the state police say they have no idea...?

I will say comment threads often disappoint me, the way the topic being offered for discussion and the message that needs to be understood and shared can get lost...

Just One Question

Why?

This Day in History: October 23

The States are so tardy in collecting the Taxes, that the most trivial sum cannot be obtained for the most pressing purposes—and in one sense it may be said, that the Officers of the Army are actually starving for want of a small portion of their pay—the Horses of it, for want of money to procure forage, are actually in this condition...
