You are now getting a taste of what it is like to talk to our side directly, unfiltered and you do not like it nor do you understand it. One other thing -- if the rule of law no longer protects us from "gangster government," it no longer protects gangster government and its minions from us, either. And remember this has NOTHING to do with the GOP, the NRA, the talk show circuit or any of the rest of your convenient, comfortable boogeymen which you blame. You no longer have them to protect you.

The Long March was a retreat by the Red Army trying to evade Chinese Nationalist forces that nonetheless served to enhance the prestige of Mao Tse-tung, enabling his ascension to unchallengeable power, the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution.

Hiatus


Not really, but I know that
upsets the animaladjusted.
I expect to be back around Aug. 7 or thereabouts.  In the interim, comments have been turned off and I ask you to hold off on emails and "social media" contacts.

Two things to watch for in my absence:

  • T.L. Davis will be announcing the release of "Lies of Omission."  Please keep an eye out for it and then help spread the word.
  • GUNS Magazine will be posting my latest "Rights Watch" column. It's called "The Long March," about the recent goose-waddle from Fairfax to DC.

I've unchained feral sons Uday and Qusay and opened the basement door to give them free rein of the redoubt in my absence. I'd better not find a gnawed shin bone like last time.

Trump’s Communications Pick Invites Legitimate Questions on Principles and Loyalty


Maybe he doesn’t need to have unshakeable beliefs in order to do his job, which, after all, is to come up with excuses, diversions and happy talk to offset a media pretty much doing the same thing to see that the illusions it casts are the ones that prevail. Still, just the fact that communications come down through him makes their credibility susceptible to the type of ridicule now being heaped on the administration by its political and media enemies.

OFF Calls Boquist’s Response to Criticism of His Gun Bill ‘Mendacious’

Audit all credible polls against real world experience in places like California, and then produce credible data – not opinion, not anecdotes, not isolated examples, but something that can be independently validated – demonstrating that “amnesty” and a “pathway to citizenship” for MILLIONS of foreign nationals in this country illegally (and legally, with CURRENT culturally suicidal policies) WILL NOT overwhelmingly favor Democrats and anti-gunners. Show us your sources and methodologies for determining this WILL NOT result in supermajorities in state and federal legislatures that will then be able to pass all kinds of anti-gun edicts.

Show us how this WILL NOT result in nominations and confirmations of judges to the Supreme and federal courts who will uphold those edicts and reverse gains made to date.

If you can't, put on your NRA director hat and explain why a politician's position on an issue that has the potential to eviscerate "legal" recognition of the Second Amendment should not be refelected in grades and endorsements.
