A new analysis of 2013 polling data on gun control that appeared yesterday on a blog from the London School of Economics and Political Science shows a majority of Democrats favor stricter gun laws, while coincidentally this morning’s Rasmussen Reports reveals a new survey showing more Democrats think illegal immigrants should be allowed to vote.

Helping is quite simple. While you are out running errands, or if you have some time to be proactive and go check the doors and signs at local government places...

A Few Bad Apples
Prosecutorial and police misconduct are often dismissed as just a few bad apples doing a few bad apple-ish things. But what happens when it’s entrenched and systemic and goes unchecked for years? That looks to be the case in Orange County, California, where the situation got so completely out of hand this spring that Superior Court Judge Thomas Goethals issued an order disqualifying the entire Orange County District Attorney’s Office (that’s all 250 prosecutors) from continuing to prosecute a major death penalty case. [More]Who thinks this is the only barrel full, and that the same findings could not be reproduced throughout the (former) Republic?
Funny, how "progressive" Slate knows how corrupt everything is, yet still does everything in its power to ensure a monopoly of violence entrusted to the abusers, and to condemn the egalitarian power-sharing afforded by the uninfringed right to keep and bear arms. It's part of that differing "solutions" to the same perceived problem I referred to in the previous post.

A 31-year-old woman and a young boy were shot in the head Thursday, becoming Baltimore’s 37th and 38th homicide victims so far this month, the city’s deadliest in 15 years.

Cruz Control?
They were going to call people who signed up for their tele-town hall meeting so gun owners could ask questions of the candidate. Not only did I not get a call, which I'd like to attribute to more interested participation than they could accommodate, but I can't find any after-action reports, including entries on their Twitter/Facebook feeds, and their dedicated "town hall" site page gives a "404" message.
Likewise, Cruz's social media accounts are silent on this.

This isn't a racial thing.

Neat media trick, though, where they get to paint someone -- in this case, a Mitt Romney cheerleader and friend of Bill Maher -- as being "extreme" on an issue. They do the same thing with NRA, accusing it of being uncompromising, and calling politicians like George Bush and John McCain "right wing conservatives." That allows anyone more principled to be dismissed as a homegrown terrorist and domestic enemy.

A Scary Place
“The world is a very scary place right now, especially for people of means; they feel cornered and threatened”... [More]Awww.
You guys should see what the rest of us are faced with.
So that's why so many elitists fund citizen disarmament, and not a one has stepped up to the plate to counter Bloomberg dollar-for-dollar? And why even "conservative" Kochsuckers are abetting the grand sellout?
That said, anything given, that allows people to avoid working for themselves, generally isn't appreciated and used wisely. If an "angel" did come forward, it would just give the slacktivists more of an excuse to keep doing nothing. I just find it instructive, that's all, that no billionaire has ponied up $50M or so because he believes the right of the people to keep and bear arms is actually necessary.

Group Used Actors for NYC Gun Store Facade
“Actors are interviewed on camera in a fake gun store,” the permits’ scene descriptions reveal. [More]We knew the store was fake and the "proprietor" was an actor. My Freedom of Information request produced the permits showing the "customers' were actors as well. So when States United Against Gun Violence aka CeaseFire tells us it was "a hidden camera social experiment to debunk safety myths," the only myth that's been debunked here is their sneaky con job attempt at manipulation.
Also, it seems no paperwork was required to control all that "inventory," which, per New York law, also applies to "prop guns."

Republican 'leaders' block and derail campus carry in Nevada
Naturally, they both have excuses.

Florida Carry notes a simple change, effective immediately, that they helped bring about to "allow lawful gun owners to bring their guns with them during an emergency rather than being forced to leave them behind to fall in to the hands of looters or be destroyed in a disaster."Persons evacuating from a designated mandatory evacuation zone can lawfully carry firearms without license for up to 48 hours while in the process of evacuating.

GOA supporters to question presidential hopefuls in ‘tele-town hall meeting'
In a way, that could end up being a litmus test of sorts by which gun owners will be able to separate politicians who will stand with them from those who will abandon them and turn tail at the first threat of “bad” press. That could be helpful in gauging if candidates are willing to stand fast on principles they actually believe in, or if they have merely been offering insincere platitudes in the hopes of gaining knee-jerk votes. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the "progressive" forces of inclusion and tolerance are frothing at the mouth in their desperation to scare GOP candidates away from GOA.

An Academic Solution
The solution to gun-related crime is not further arming the public.

Murdered executive supported ‘gun control’-backing politician
It is not known at this writing is if they knew their killer(s). Also unstated at this time is if Savvas Savopoulos or his wife Amy owned guns, especially in light of the bureaucratic hurdles associated with "legally" owning firearms in the District, and if they did, if that would have made a difference. What is known, but is not being disclosed by mainstream media, is that the executive and his company supported a politician who is a strong proponent of “gun control.” [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a gun may not have made a difference, but no one has a right to make that choice for another.

[More]And if our highly-trained, professionals are disarmed, why should we let you keep and bear arms?
This is something I've been pointing out for at least 15 years:
It's know making its way into the "national conversation on guns" with more frequency, and while I know some of you are fine with that, think through what that would mean, including how that does not make you a proponent of "gun control."
As for you "Only Ones" who have no problem coming after us mundanes, the bell is tolling for thee, and to quote a theme song of yours, "what'cha gonna do when they come for you?"
Polyphemus may promise to eat you last, but eat you he intends...
