A Housing Crisis
That's What They Get for Being Haters
Now That the Fingers are Off Your Throat, Don't Hold Your Breath
I hope the unmasking of this operation continues, so as to prevent abusive government behavior like this from ever happening again. [More]Let's see...
We've been talking about it here for over four years. Finally some are getting around to calling it what it was: Extortion.
Who thinks with Swampublicans blowing the midterms and the Evil Party setting up the incendiaries to burn the House down that this is going to be a priority?

You're Gonna Need a Bigger Plaintiff
The NRA Will Have Its Day in Court - New York’s governor will have to defend his assault on the liberties enumerated in the Bill of Rights. [More]So why should it need to?
Why wouldn't a complaint to DOJ be enough to trigger an investigation for civil rights violations, and why wouldn't the evidence of same be enough to justify his arrest and prosecution?
[Via bondmen]
Rotting from the Head Down?
Santa Barbara Gun Club Being Destroyed From Within? [More]I see a lot of allegations. Confirmation seems harder to come by.
A truism of most small volunteer organizations is that only a handful do almost all the work. I experienced that when I was involved with NRA Members Councils. I bring this up because the bottom line is I don't know enough to take a side in this. It could be the leadership is corrupt and self-serving as hell, it could be their detractors are thwarted malcontents.
It would have been helpful if the article had a comments section where factions could weigh in and share their side of things.

The Swamp Wins Again!

RIP Roy Clark
One of the legends of country music, guitarist and singer Roy Clark, has died. [More]"Hee Haw" was a guilty pleasure yesterday when I was young.
"We didn't do anything political" is a lesson too few of today's country "stars" seem to have learned.
So Much for 'What I Ams'
The FDA also points out that younger people have the highest rate of smoking menthol cigarettes. "More than half (54 percent) of youth smokers ages 12-17 use menthol cigarettes, compared to less than one-third of smokers ages 35 and older," the agency reported, adding that the rate is even higher among African-American youth: 7 out of 10 young black smokers select menthol cigarettes. [More]I'm sure Scott Gottlieb would have no problem pointing out who the authority to ban them is vested in.
Can bottles of bumpy face be far behind?
The Malign Miss M
Bette Midler Attacks Melania Trump as ‘Flotits’ [More]Catty, aren't we? "Progressives" treat women who refuse to live in the Democrat seraglio with the same contempt they show blacks who refuse to live on the Democrat plantation.
Is it a surprise that she also demands you be disarmed but attends celebrity drunk-fests with "two hunky bodyguards"?
Why is she working and Megyn Kelly is not again?

Ungentlemanly

Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) says Florida's recount should go on beyond the Sunday deadline if needed, a reversal from 2006 when Schumer slammed Republicans for demanding a recount and argued conceding the election would be the "gentlemanly thing to do."

We're the Only Ones Paternal Enough
Son says he shot his father, a former deputy, to protect himself and his mom ... Neighbors say there have been several run-ins involving that retired deputy, and some are not surprised by the violence. [More]I'd be curious to go back through his 30-year career to see if there were occasions when some people looked the other way...
Cognitive Dissonance as Policy
Liberals, please instruct us: When is nationalism good and when is it bad? This is confusing. [More]It's meant to be.
It's intentional that there is no memory. With everything in the now, there is no contradiction, because "then" does not exist.
That's why statues have to go. That's why commisars vanish.
[Via Mack H]
Another Flare-Up
Both bills require Senate approval before heading to Kasich’s desk. But if that happens, Kasich -- a Republican himself -- is likely to veto both measures: he vetoed a previous “heartbeat bill” in 2016, and earlier this year he vowed to block “stand your ground” legislation. [More]I don't believe there is anyone in politics I have more contempt for.

Soldiers Get Wireless Targeting to Shoot Around Corners, Hit Enemies Instantly - This system, called Rapid Target Acquisition, is slated to arrive in early 2019 [More]So at that point it will be "in common use at the time" by the military and thus, according to the clear intent of the Founders, available to "the whole people"?

The Final Stretch
Received via email:
If she's so "pro-gun," how come GOA didn't rate her? And how come all Numbers USA has on her is she's OK with defunding sanctuary cities, but not a word on the most important gun owner concerns?
And you have to wonder if she's so damn tone deaf she doesn't grok why "joking" about public hanging in Mississippi might not play well with the masses, particularly when running against a black man...
If she loses, and she damn well may based on her own statements, actions and lack thereof, watch Swamp Republicans join with all the other domestic enemies to blame Trumpism.

A 'Poor Excuse' for Public Safety
NJ Bail Reform Strikes Again: Judge Frees Fair Lawn Woman Accused Of Shooting Man In Face ...New Jersey's Bail Reform & Speedy Trial Act was designed to ensure that poor defendants charged with minor crimes don't stay locked up while large-scale drug dealers pay whatever amount of bail is necessary to free themselves. [More]How very "progressively" egalitarian!
Relax. It's simply a matter of priorities.
[Via Steve T]
We're the Only Ones Immune Enough
Lawrence police officer who shot man asks judge to dismiss criminal charge [More]I can see where the guy snapped and resisted being officially assaulted, but you just can't -- not if you expect to live to fight another day at the time and place of your choosing. In this case, "Safety first!" means wear that seatbelt or we'll shoot you -- either intentionally or through stunning incompetence, none of which we should be held accountable for, because it's the law!

Another Guest of Honor?
Grasping at Straws
The family of a woman shot to death in a 2014 Overland Park hate crime has settled a lawsuit against Walmart over the sale of a shotgun used in the crime. [More]So what about PLCAA? How was the clerk supposed to know a "straw purchase" was going down?
The suit alleges that Miller “initiated” the purchase, but then claimed he did not have any identification, and offered to have Reidle purchase the weapon, which he did.If true, that's exceptionally stupid noting the environment gun dealers work in. If it's not true, then corporate lawyers just signaled circling jackals that bites are rewarded with flesh.

The Conquest of Space
But increasingly, government agencies, journalists, and the space community at large are recognizing that these narratives are born from racist, sexist ideologies that historically led to the subjugation and erasure of women and indigenous cultures, creating barriers that are still pervasive today.
