I'm Sure We Could Arrange a Demonstration
In reality, there is no evidence whatsoever that carrying guns deters rapes. [More]Care to create some, Matthew Chapman?

Reusable metal straws may be good for the planet, but they can also kill you. [More]I guess the environmentalcases who believe that haven't done much hanging around mines and refineries but the main point of contention has to be the attribution of responsibility to an inanimate object.

The Company They Keep

Caught in Her Own Web of Lies
Kirsten Gillibrand would like reporters to stop asking her about flip-flop on immigration [More]OK. Ask her about guns instead.
I'm convinced this woman is a psychopath.

Attack of the Swamp Creatures
The Louisville Courier Journal reports that national Republican organizations will be using establishment money in an attempt to unseat Massie, who has the most constitutional voting record of any Republican in all of Congress. [More]The truth is, they would rather have a Democrat because that's what forcing him to expend campaign funds on a primary challenge will work to the advantage of.
[Via Felix B]
The Coloban?
Brown instead told talk radio he tried to ruin former Republican state Rep. Cole Wist’s life in the 2018 campaign season because he supported a proposed red-flag law. I was very publicly against that bill, but at no point did I want to lose more Republican seats to the Democrats, as we did in Wist’s formerly competitive House District 37. That strategy is what will turn our state blue for good. Even former Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo came out against RMGO and Brown’s method of forcing “politicians to dance to his tune.” [More]I know plenty of gun owners have major beefs with Dudley and I can't speak to the charges of threats and extortion, but I will challenge the contention that gun owners are better served in the long run by continuing to reward GOP turncoats with power.
And as for using Tancredo as some kind of RKBA benchmark, I wouldn't go there.

An Unintended Consequence
If the First Amendment applies to Twitter, and therefore Twitter can't allow public officials to block users even from their personal accounts, then it follows that, well, the First Amendment applies to Twitter, and therefore Twitter can't censor political content or ban users for their political views. [More]Right, but expecting consistency hardly seems realistic.
[Via Michael G]
No. Your Move.
As of last week, only around 700 weapons had been turned over. There are an estimated 1.5 million guns—with an unknown number subject to the new prohibition on semiautomatic firearms—in the country overall. [More]Now that she's dressing the part, maybe Jacinda could strap a bomb to her chest...

RIP Ross Perot
“In business and in life, Ross was a man of integrity and action. A true American patriot..." [More]He was a remarkable man with a remarkable flaw that made him unsuitable for office. Sorry, but amidst all the bipartisan praise, much of it deserved, we can't forget the inconvenient truths.
'I Did Not Have Sex with Those Lolitas...'
Clinton Issues Statement On Epstein, Says He ‘Knew Nothing’ Of Sex Trafficking [More]Well, we know how believable he was the last time he claimed innocence -- under oath.

Anti-Gun Convicted Sex Offender Yarrow Deserves to be Shunned
Yarrow’s conviction is damning, but it’s fair to ask why this is relevant fare for AmmoLand Shooting Sports News. It's because, like so many gun-grabbers, he's a man who could not (or more likely would not) control himself, yet he is all for controlling gun owners who do not share his degenerate self-control issues. [More]It kind of adds a whole new creepy undertone to "Puff the Magic Dragon" and "Blowin' in the Wind."
Yearning to Breathe Free
Hard Copy
I supplemented my White House petition with a snail mail letter that allowed me to provide more detail than the online form allowed:
 |
| [Right click/open in new tab] |
- Sign the petition.
- Share it with your friends.
- Ask others with reach ("conservative" media; national, state and local gun groups; blogs; forums; etc., to help spread the word.
No one is claiming this will be a cure-all -- but distorting and framing the terms is used very effectively by the gun-grabbers and there is no excuse (or advantage) for the ostensibly "pro-gun" White House to continue perpetuating a deliberate Obama-era lie.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Flubbed' Is
When the reporters confronted Omar about these details, she said she may have flubbed some facts. [More]You know, she lied.

Back by Popular Demand
Popular vote compact would help conservatives. [More]No it wouldn't.
Besides, you don't deal with the entirely created problem of illegal aliens by dancing around it and not dealing with it directly.
As to the title's premise, Hillary won the popular vote. Argue with that.

An Inspiration to Us All
Fatal shooting of 9-year-old girl in Richmond park inspires Gov. Northam's call for action on guns [More]No, it doesn't. Stop lying.
He just exploiting it as another opportunity to blood dance and to swindle the ignorant.

New law allows paramedics to carry guns at high-risk incidents - That means active-gunman situations, not daily duties such as medical calls, authorities in Palm Beach and Martin counties say.

Putting the Pedo to the Metal
Jeffrey E. Epstein, a billionaire New York financier long accused of molesting dozens of girls, was arrested on Saturday and charged with sex trafficking by federal prosecutors, an extraordinary turn of events in a long and sordid criminal case.

I cribbed this graphic from the Summer, 2018 issue of AMAC Advantage, the magazine of the Association of Mature American Citizens. AMAC is a conservative alternative to the AARP, suitable for those who object to their "service organization" lobbying in favor of Obamacare, banning guns, and funneling 95% of their political donation budget to Democrats.
