Watch Live
President Donald Trump will be speaking to Heritage members at our annual President’s Club Meeting this Tuesday, October 17 at 7:30 pm Eastern ... Heritage has been instrumental in providing the Trump administration with sound policy advice and experts who now serve in key government positions. [More]Yeah, I've noticed.
They want questions. I've got one:
One question will be easy to ignore. A thousand won't be.
So based on experience, I expect only a handful will join me, not enough to make a bit of difference...

The Cost of Freedom
"They entertained whether or not they had enough to search it without that consent, and they did not. There was not enough probable cause to search it on its own, nor to get a warrant for the vehicle," Stevens said. "They thought there might be perhaps even drugs in the vehicle. They asked for a drug dog, but none were available. They looked at a few avenues. Ultimately, it would've been unconstitutional to search the vehicle so they released him." [More]To those decrying this, be careful what you wish for.

Less is More
The Blame Game
He and his girlfriend were in the Arrowhead Stadium parking lot. He had tickets to the Chiefs game against the Saints last October, and the Nebraskan needed to stow the gun in his SUV before passing through the stadium’s metal detectors. [More]So it's all on him and nothing on the people who left him no other choice but to be disarmed to and from the stadium?

Dirty Money
Of course they won't. And of course they have a ready excuse.We won’t give back a cent of Harvey Weinstein’s tainted $250,000 says the Clinton Foundation [More]
They always do.
Make Austria Great Again
Kurz's ideas on everything from immigration to economic policy represent a "complete rupture" with the EU, Moreau added. [More]That alone ought to be enough.

Friday, October 13, 2017
Armed American Radio
I'll be joining up with host Mark Walters again today at 4 p.m. Eastern to talk about the Great Bump Stock Divide and more.
Go to the AAR website to find a station near you or to listen via live stream.
The Magic Number
MAINSTREAM PREMIERE!
A Technical and Statutory Decision
So "the ATF can't ban bump stocks without Congress"...? And they went looking for reasons the first time out?
So Marion wasn't being straight about "wink and nod"?
And what now about the genius Jojo Krako move...?
Meanwhile, Over at SPLC's 'Hate Watch'...
Oath Keepers and friends deliver food, water, and wellness checks [More]What a bunch of "hateful anti-government militia extremists"!
Gathering Storm
Charlottesville, Va., and several local businesses have joined a lawsuit against white supremacists and “private militia groups” to prevent them from holding rallies in the city. [More]Here's the complaint. You don't gather that amount of intel without a lot of monitoring and inside information. And noting the different group goals, it'll be interesting to see who joins together in defense and who does nothing.
It will also be interesting to see if any of this will be deemed unconstitutionally "vague."
[Via Mack H]
We're the Only Ones Tagged Enough
Virginia State Police superintendent says troopers will not cover name tags again [More]Seeing as how the only reason that would be done is so they could commit crimes against citizens under color of authority and without accountability, can we take it that "appropriate action" means they've been fired? And that the pictured "Motor Carrier Unit" thug will no longer be a menace to society?
It seems to me a covered name tag should be grounds for immediate self defense action.
[Via Mack H]
The Aliens Among Us
The latest alien sightings were in New Jersey. There, PILF found proof of aliens on the rolls: hundreds of them. [More]Look to the skies!
Thank goodness this has nothing to do with that "single issue."

These Happy Days Are Yours and Mine (Oh Happy Days)
Tancredo: Do You Miss America? [More]I do, Tom.
How about you?
Or is that why you left a big relatively unrestricted freedom out of your trip down Memory Lane?
[Via Mack H]
We're the Only Ones Appealing Enough
Attorney Greg Skordas said Tuesday that Detective Jeff Payne would likely still be employed if body-camera footage hadn't generated widespread attention online. [More]Using that rationale, what crime could he not be held accountable for?
Or in the parlance of Scooby Doo:
And I'd have gotten away with it too, if it hadn't been for you meddling citizens!Ruh-ro.
[Via Florida Guy]
Krako... Paging Jojo Krako
NRA opposes legislation banning bump stocks [More]Who's legislatin'? We're regulatin'.

Come Fly with Me, Let's Fly, Let's Fly Away
Stopping the Signal
YouTube to Censor Gun Conversion, Modification Videos [More]We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical.
So when are they going to start censoring blogs?

We're the Only Ones Getting Our ... Uh ... Covers Blown Enough
We're the Only Ones Secure Parking Enough

Hammer Defense of NRA Bump Stock Appeasement Repeats Old Assertion that ‘Good, Honest Americans’ Surrender Rights
And if you voice opposition, you're a "Trojan Horse."
“[L]ike all good, honest, law-abiding Americans, the NRA obeys the law… NRA has called for enforcing existing law." [More]

A Bit o' Blarney
Irish American politician says Massachusetts proves gun control moves work [More]Yeah, I can tell.
[Via William T]
She's Right
It is a "permission slip." [More]
She's just not "right" as in a "conservative," which is how she's fraudulently presented. It's useful for making anyone with actual principles dismissable as "extreme."

Harvey Weinstein Won’t Be Keeping Promise to Make NRA Members Regret Being Alive
So he won’t be making good on his threat to make an anti-NRA movie starring Meryl Streep (who also had no idea!). Here’s what Harvey told Howard Stern in January, 2014: “They are going to wish they weren’t alive after I’m done with them … I don’t think we need guns in this country, and I hate it.” [More]Any gun owners wish they weren't alive reading about Harvey's downfall?
A Real Class Act
Anti-Gun Nut Chelsea Handler to Shooting Victim Rep. Scalise: 'F**k You, A**Hole' [More]I'd really worry about what someone thought of me if they'd had two abortions at 16 , shows sex tapes of herself at birthday parties and has no one of significance in her life, because Lord knows she can't be the one with the issues.
[Via Mack H]
No One's Talking About Taking Your Guns Redux
We just want to take away the right of the people to keep and bear arms, because nothing says "stop the violence" like a totalitarian monopoly of violence! [More]
He actually reprinted this from my favorite hive insects.
Funny. The original Velvet Revolution opposed the communists. With "progressives," every day is Opposite Day.

The Hero of Mandalay Bay
TURNS OUT THIS IS FAKE NEWS. SORRY ABOUT THAT. I'M SUPRISED THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH CALLING THEMSELVES "CNN INTERNATIONAL" AND USING THE LOGO.
You know what we need to do?
Ban bump stocks!
It's going to be interesitng finding out what made this guy tick-- assuming those controlling the information allow it.
Any bets on being a convert?
And his employer being toast after the lawsuits?

Mandalay Bay security guard Jesus Compos has been arrested accused of being an accomplice and second shooter in the Las Vegas massacre that claimed the lives of 59 people and injured more than 500. [More]

No One's Talking About Taking Your Guns, You Paranoids!
Two Bad Ideas
No, three. [More]
Goddamn gutless prag intends to volunteer those of us who will not comply to be killed or have our lives destroyed.
No suprise that's not the only place he endorses "compromise." Thank goodness it has nothing to do with that "single issue."

Republican Turncoats
Very good overall analysis. Very good information.
Here are the points I diverge and adapt from, and why:
First, he says "We are about to lose our gun rights."
No, we'll always have those and the guns will need to be surrendered.
Second, these are the traitors he's advising we contact to protest:
Look at GOA grades. I don't advise using NRA ratings, because they endorsed Fitzpatrick and I wouldn't expect them to downgrade him for proceeding through an equivocating green light they signaled.
This is how the last GOA scoring went:
Contacting "Fs"is a waste of time. They don't need you. I'd submit anyone with a "C" or below is not persuadable. Hell, when it comes to the fundamentals, I've got no use for "Bs."
But in addition to contacting the ones you think worthwhile (assuming anyone does, and experience hath shewn not to hold onto any illusions about that), I'd be demanding "F" grades for turncoats from NRA and GOA, and putting one more group on notice: The Republican National Committee.
Let them know you will limit all campaign contributions exclusively to candidates who have earned your support.

UPDATE: FPC has a petition. I suppose automatically reaching all House members covers my concerns about wasting time on the unmovable.Who to Believe?
The FBI won't comment on this at all but my sources say this is a conspiracy theory and is absolutely not true. [More]Well then, it's settled. Thanks for definitively resolving that!
Teach Your Children Well
Boy Scouts Will Admit Girls [More]
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola
That's the plan, right? At least until enough power has been amassed...
The fact that the directors voted unanimously for the change should not go unnoticed.
Time to Revise the Timeline Again
Worker warned hotel before Las Vegas shooter opened fire on crowd [More]So did they send someone up to explain the policy?
"[This] story ha[s] more holes in it than Albert Hall."
'We' Have the Power!

| [More] |
Or by "hav[ing] the power," are you talking strike? Believe it or not, life would go on for most -- and for some of us, without change. If you're not going to take the actual life-altering hit the players would, such egging on reminds me of what Tonto replied to the Lone Ranger when he said "It looks like we're surrounded by Indians."
"What you mean 'we'?"Collectivists and economics -- who better to decide how things will be apportioned?
Besides-- no one is talking about "silencing" anyone. We're simply talking about appropriate times and places. That and the freedom of choice to respond.
Figures this guy butters his bread over at CNN. And sorry, but He-Man couldn't resist a bit of funnin':

The Right Man for the Job
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau opens up about wanting his sons to "escape the pressure to be a particular kind of masculine that is so damaging to men and to the people around them." [More]I'm sure they'll love the Easy-Bake Oven and Betsy Wetsy doll.
Disenfranchising the Disabled
The retrofit was meant for individuals who have limited mobility in their hands or who have difficulties pulling the trigger multiple times. Many detractors may not grasp why someone with such limiting factors would even want to hunt, shoot, or fire a gun, but many persons with disabilities are avid outdoor sportspeople. There are specialized wheelchairs designed for hunting and trekking through woods and brush, adaptive crossbows, lifting tree stands, and add-ons that allow hunters with severe disabilities to fire their weapons by blowing through a straw. Simply put, if it’s a right to own and utilize guns, the right must be extended to people with disabilities. [More]You wouldn't know it from the way the Palm Pistol has been treated.
Still, it's useful to get the backstory on this. Who'da thunk it would come from Kos?
[Via Mack H]
We're the Only Ones Suppressed Enough
The War on Individuals
Illegal guns get into Chicago through lone dealers, not large trafficking organizations, and that makes any legislative action taken to stop the flow totally impractical, according to Chicago police. [More]Which is why the "solution" is to crush the little guy?
[Via bondmen]
The Wrong Question
Regular MSNBC Guest Urges Gun Control, Can't Explain How It Would Help [More]No, of course not.
But that presupposes the intent is to help.
[Via bondmen]
We're the Only Ones Photo-Opping Enough
Cover Fire
Gun Rights Group: NRA’s Support of Regulation Is Laying Down ‘Cover’ for Pro-Gun Control Republicans [More]Not as much as its support of pro-amnesty Republicans, but so far, it looks like no "gun rights group" has made the connection to the "single issue."
Well, one did, but it seems to have backed off.
[Via Keith B]
Going the Distance
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in a ruling Tuesday dismissed a challenge to an Alameda County ordinance that prohibits gun stores within 500 feet of schools, liquor stores and residential neighborhoods. [More]And if 500 feet is good, 5,000 feet must be 10 times better, right? And...

Relatively Uncontroversial Tweets
“It’s the white supremacist patriarchy, stupid” ... [More]Yeah, hell, why would anyone be held accountable by their employer for overt racism in this day and age?
Poor victim.
No!
That sums up the response I got from an NRA director I asked if the Board was consulted before management threw bump stocks under the bus. In case anyone has any doubts about ultimate Nominating Committee criteria...
I, Robot
Sikkut said he saw advantages to elevating artificial intelligence to the same judicial level as natural and legal persons. [More]Of course.
Program an agenda, put it on an information superhighway to citizenship and let the self-replication begin...
No Voice in the Matter?
“White people do not get to tell black folks, or anybody else, what is an acceptable form of protest.” [More]What about Koreans?
The Funniest Act in Vegas
Steve Wynn suggests that Stephen Paddock would never have been able to have carried out his massacre had he tried to do so at the Las Vegas Wynn hotel. "We don't allow guns in this building unless they're being carried by our employees"... [More]Is it possible to be that rich and that stupid?
Expect Agenda-Advancing Activism from Anti-Gun Judge Reviewing Hillary Clinton Emails
But she may have inadvertently given us a tool to monkeywrench the "fundamerntal transformation"...Put another way, she unilaterally decided your life and your rights were less important than the off-chance you might fire your gun in self-defense and accidentally threaten an endangered species animal, or perhaps cause other damage by adding a minuscule amount of lead to the environment. And that’s in spite of case after documented case of threats to life in national parks that were known at the time. [More]
NSSF/SAAMI Backs Team Quisling

About Those Guns on Texas Campuses
Blame apportioning notwithstanding, the takeaway here is the suspect is 19, meaning the new "law" has nothing to do with this. [More]
So f... ..., Texas Democrats.
Lock N Load
An Existential Threat
He argues the cost would be a surge in Democratic Party voting rolls through granting residency and a path to citizenship to “Dreamers,” the children of migrants who came to the U.S. illegally. [More]Fortunately for us, the guys who threw bump stocks under the bus also tell us, through their political grades and endorsements, that this has nothing to do with that "single issue."

When have they not? Then there's this:
I guess proving he's deceptive is all the qualification Hiltzik needs -- as long as he doesn't get caught again. Management has his back on that this time.
My guess is they weren't all that surprised the first time.

What's That Out of 18 Million or So?
A Facebook group now has more than 70,000 members calling for a boycott of all NFL games on Veterans Day weekend, Nov. 12-13. [More]Only then? And funny, what it takes to trigger an indignant response.
I'd join, but it's a moot point as you wouldn't catch me in a stadium anyway, and the only time I'm likely to watch televised sports is when I die and go to hell.
The thought strikes that it would be less self-belittling to wear a shirt saying "I'm with stupid," with the arrow pointing up, than to wear a jersey with some sportsthug's name on it. At least with the former, you'd show you're in on the joke, as opposed to being a bitch for the rope-sellers.
CNN Bump Stock Screw-Up Shows Agenda More Important than Accuracy
"CNN as usual is factually incorrect,” Historic Arms LLC President Len Savage told AmmoLand Shooting Sports News. “What the CNN animation is showing is a normal M4 style adjustable stock being collapsed and then extended repeatedly.

Up Close and Personal
Yeah, I've Always Welcomed Quislings
National Rifle Association official Chris Cox on Sunday defended the influential group’s call last week to look into whether a gun device used in the Las Vegas shooting massacre complies with federal law -- arguing the move was not a call for a weapons ban and that gun-rights advocates welcome the effort. [More]Delusional. Which "gun-rights advocates" are you talking to, Chris? Because GOA, several state groups and everyone in my circle sees this as just another Fairfaxian betrayal of principle.
Who's bannin'? We're regulatin'.
Right, Jojo?
Gosh, That's Terrible
Don't know what the causes are, yet, eh...?
Terry Bradshaw, Useful Idiot
If our country stands for anything, folks—it’s freedom. [More]Yeah, but this has nothing to do with that, you dope.

Rep. Tim Ryan is giving the campaign money — $20,000 in all — he’s received from the National Rifle Association to gun control groups. The Niles Democrat, who began his career in Congress with an “A” rating from the NRA, decided to donate his NRA money to Sandy Hook Promise, Americans for Responsible Solutions and Everytown for Gun Safety.

The Lone Gunmen
One of the victims of the Las Vegas shooting has blown the whistle to reveal that he was shot by multiple gunmen during the massacre. [More]Sounds like news, doesn't it? So why is The New York Newsday registered in Macedonia and why does it contain this disclaimer in the footer?
I've been getting all kinds of "conspiracy theories" sent to me on this, including, yes, the one about gun-running for ISIS at the behest of the FBI, and while I agree the official story is being manipulated for reasons yet unknown, I'm not going to embrace alternate "explanations" without proof.
The reason for that is not because I trust "official sources," but because I don't. One powerful way to discredit alternate explanations is to sow seeds of disinformation that can be easily discredited, and to then conflate all such alternative explanations with the tin foil hatters.
The best I can do from this end, since I have no unique sources, is to offer the same process as in Fast and Furious. First I vet any would-be whistleblower, and if enough is there to proceed offer my "I'll go to jail before giving you up" protection, and then scream my head off for political guarantees and a trustworthy louder media voice.
Not So Little White Lies
Fortunately, there is a thing called “data” out there which contains “facts.” [More]Oh no! Not Kryptonite!

We're the Only Ones Doubling Down Enough
A former sheriff’s deputy and Missouri correctional officer who killed his ex-girlfriend and her boyfriend in a child custody dispute has been sentenced to death. [More]I take some degree of solace knowing if he hadn't been caught he'd have been exempt from the proposed bump stock ban.
[Via bondmen]
Regulate or Ban?
When you're an anti, it's the same thing! [More]
Naturally they hide behind a proxy ("Registered On 2016-09-22") and a UPS Store mailbox. Hey, if you want to start a civil war, why take any personal responsibility?
Nothing yet on Guidestar or an Indiana business search... although the two Twitter followers since January 2016 are impressive, which may explain the "generous private [AstroTurf] donation" to make up for the lack of grassroots...
[Via bondmen]
Carrying on a Tradition
We really don't need some guy who sounds like he would be frightened at the sight of a 1911 laying on the table to argue the merits and utility of the Second Amendment. [More]He's just following in the footseps of the founder...
As for the cowardly ivory tower-dweller NR is refuting from The Toilet Paper of Record, he presumes to teach when it doesn't take much to see he doesn't even belong in the classroom without years of prerequisites.
So It's Not About Stopping 'Gun Violence' or Even About 'Commonsense Gun Safety'?
Feinstein: No law would have stopped Las Vegas gunman [More]Some of us already knew that.
Nor, based on real-world results, would any combination of "laws" and bans.
So since even Feinstein admits what she's proposing as a response will have no effect on future attacks, what's her long term motive for wanting to make even more citizens die in the short term?
Anyone...? Bueller...?
