‘Weapon of War’ a Subject of Historic Interest and Contemporary Relevance
I can’t help but juxtapose that against some idiot gun-grabbing Democrat (and increasingly, “moderate” Republiquisling) politician railing to the media and spooking the herd about “civilians” having “weapons of war!!!” [More]Guns were supposed to be weapons of war. What would be the point of a citizen militia without them? Then again, parasitic and predatory politicians who want to disarm us are counting on anyone ignorant enough to vote for them not knowing that.
We're the Only Ones Off the Cuff Enough
A 12-year-old Overland Park girl formed a gun with her fingers, pointed at four of her Westridge Middle School classmates one at a time, and then turned the pretend weapon toward herself. Police hauled her out of school in handcuffs, arrested her and charged the child with a felony for threatening. [More]The culture is officially mad.
Hey, she's lucky she wasn't in New York.
[Via Bluesgal]
The Big Liars
Where did the Miami Herald get its characterization that ACT for America was an “extremist group”? From the discredited charlatans at the Southern Poverty Law Center. [More]And Presto! Change-O!
[Via Mack H]
You'll be Surprised, You're Doing the French Mistake. Voila!
Never Trumper and ‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ Proponent David French is OUT at National Review [More]He's big on red flags, too.
Maybe he and Jonah can read to each other.
Come on, girls!
[Via Mack H]
Reality is Intolerant
Into the Blue
Giffords gun-control group spends $300,000 on ads targeting Va. Republicans [More]Fortunately, Jorge's running as a Democrat!
Say, I wonder if he'll speak at the rally...?
Curses, Foiled Again!
Last month, the high court unanimously ruled that, because state law could affect a defendant’s Second Amendment rights, the proceedings are serious enough to warrant a jury trial. [More]Where do they think they are? America...?
Down the Garden Path
After the trial court dismissed the case, GeorgiaCarry.Org appealed to the state Supreme Court, arguing the Atlanta Botanical Garden is actually public property because it is owned by the city of Atlanta and leased to the organization that operates the facility. [More]So now they're going to need to make up another way to deny rights by violating state law...
Gas Chamber or Electric Chair?
You Gotta Wonder How Stuff Like This Happens
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) claims the store knowingly transferred handguns to an out-of-state resident, made false entries in records and didn't report several handgun sales. [More]That's the wrong business to figure you won't be scrutinized.
So was there a falling out?
Veteran Owners have been involved with law enforcement, security and emergency services for over 30 years.Or is this just more authoritarian ball-busting over a bit of unintended paperwork glitches?
[Via Jess]
We're the Only Ones Routine Enough
We're the Only Ones Youth-Oriented Enough
A central Missouri police officer has been charged with arranging to meet a woman and have sex with her 14-year-old daughter after it turned out that the woman was actually an undercover FBI employee. [More]You gotta wonder how degenerate and dumb some of these people they set loose on us really are.
[Via bondmen]
You Say You Want a Resolution
RESOLVED, that the Kentucky Medical Association will formally support firearm education for guardians of minors in Kentucky in accordance with our parent organization, the American Medical Association. [More]None dare call it "gunquackery."
Because nothing says "settled science" like "according to Everytown for Gun Safety" and "the Washington Post found"...
When they start quacking, give 'em one of these. Then ask them to explain that pinging noise coming from under the hood, seeing as how their medical credentials make them experts on everything.
[Via bondmen]
Feel the Tolerance!
It Takes a Village Idiot
But it takes a village to unleash a mass shooting. It is never solely the result of one person’s evil intentions. Many mass shootings could never have taken place without the fuel of racist and misogynist propaganda, or the help of unscrupulous purveyors of the weapons of war, or the failure of public venues to implement effective security measures. [More]So purge all conservative white male gun owners, and the ideologies they believe in, and we'll all live in socially virtuous safety ever after?
[Via Michael G]
Another Expert Weighs In
Singer Rihanna: Trump ‘The Most Mentally Ill Human Being In America’ [More]Well, then it's settled.
Besides, she should know.
[Via Dave Licht]
If You Call Our Invasion an Invasion We'll Have Our Proxies Invade You
Erdogan threatens to flood Europe with 3.6 million refugees if EU calls Syria operation an 'invasion' [More]It sure sounds like they've been weaponized to me. It sure sounds like the act of an enemy.
So what does that make "pathway to citizenship" Democrats and cheap-labor Republicans enabling the invasion here?
Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."
It must not, otherwise it would be the focus of the Big Rally.
Another Reason to Vote Republican!
Add crappy roads with a 10.5 cent/gallon gas tax hike and a sales tax on purchases of gold and silver coins and bullion, and thanks, Republican-dominated legislature and Gov. DeWine!
And yeah, I saw he just backed down on some of his more egregious gun-grab threats but I'm not impressed. I have a FirearmsNews piece in the works that will explain why.

How to Enrage a Predatory Drug-Fueled Male with Twice Your Upper Body Strength
TigerLady... [More]Have I got a BOGO offer for them!
I wonder if there are places where these are illegal. And why aren't background checks and safe storage required?
Then again, you could just vomit...
[Via Dave Licht]
New York’s Red Flag Law Could be Ironic Factor in Attacking Donald Trump
Trump may be, as the line from Hamlet goes, “hoist with his own petard.”Because “thanks” to “gun control,” his enemies may have all the ammunition they need to deal a severe, if not a crippling, blow to his presidency. [More]It’s not like any burden of proof is on them. “Due process later,” remember?
And Blue Helmets Don't Come Cheap These Days
The United Nations Is On Track To Run Out Of Money By The End Of The Month [More]Have they paid off the Eurorummy's bar tab yet?
[Via Michael G]
False Sense of Sécurité
Mickaël Harpon, who stabbed three police officers and a woman civil servant to death before he was killed at Paris police headquarters on October 3rd, was a radical Islamist with a top secret security clearance and access to all computers in the police prefecture’s directorate of intelligence, known as the DRPP. [More]Before I start feeling all superior, I'd like to validate that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton received the same background scrutiny as, say, a defense contractor employee who works on "black" programs.
[Via Michael G]
Lipstick on a Pig
President Trump will sign an executive order Wednesday that requires agencies to seek public input before issuing regulations... [More]Fat lot of good that did.
How about requiring agencies to prove compliance with founding intent on delegated powers?
[Via Mack H]
A 'Progressive' Tax
...this Article argues that enough is known about the history of gun and ammunition taxes, the differences between the First and Second Amendments, and the decade of post-Heller lower-court jurisprudence to conclude that most proposed gun-violence-prevention taxes are constitutional. [More]It depends upon what the meaning of the word "infringed" is.
I guess the Democrats know their low-income constituents better than I do, and can count on their continued votes no matter how unaffordable they make self-defense in neighborhoods with heightened need.
Pretty "progressive," eh?
And forget that the ones causing the problems won't be paying taxes.
[Via Michael G]
Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Piers Morgan Paradise
In all of this, there seems to be a suggestion that journalists should take a different approach to covering Muslims than that employed towards other faith groups. [More]Maybe they've seen what happens when the media doesn't defer, and figure if appeasement was good enough for Chamberlain...
[Via Michael G]
We're the Only Ones Cutting to the Chase Enough
“Self-help” doesn’t sound like all that bad a thing—after all, God helps those who help themselves, right?—except that in this instance “self-help” took the form of Mr. Robinson arming himself with a handgun, getting in his car, and searching around the neighborhood for the pranksters. Further, once he found the pranksters in their own vehicle, Robinson exited his car, pulled out his gun, and ordered two of the five teens out of the car. [More]If they end up treating him the way they would you or me, alarm bells will be ringing in his future.
[Via Michael G]
We're the Only Ones Teed-Off Enough
Police Union Website Suspended After President Trump Urges Supporters to Purchase Their “Cops for Trump” T-Shirts [More]They should have sold these and there'd have been no problem.
[Via bondmen]
We're the Only Ones 'Finders Keepers' Enough
Federal prosecutors say two Chicago police officers lied to judges to obtain search warrants, then stole cash and drugs from the properties they searched. [More]Forget it, Jake.
[Via bondmen]
We're the Only Ones Striking Enough
The Worldwide Ceder in Sports
ESPN Forbids Discussion Of Chinese Politics When Discussing Daryl Morey's Tweet About Chinese Politics [More]It doesn't surprise me.

Two people killed, one suspect arrested in shooting near synagogue in Germany ... The man was holding what appeared to be a machine gun... [More]Aber, aber!

Balance of Power
PG&E: Massive power shut-off to hit 800,000 customers, could extend nearly a week [More]Good thing the government has made sure all the good people have guns and training, as is its duty, just in case, right?
Imagine the power outage covering several times the area. And lasting longer than a week.
Borderline Tegridy
China Plans to Restrict Visas for U.S. Visitors With 'Anti-China' Links [More]Being discriminating about who they admit and excluding those with incompatible goals is any people's right. If we did it, our domestic commies would call us racists and xenophobes.
That said, this episode was brilliant. I do wonder where Randy got the garrote to do in Pooh...
Back Door Man
“It was nonconsensual in the sense that I was too drunk to consent,” she says. “It was nonconsensual in that I said, multiple times, that I didn’t want to have anal sex.” [More]So it wasn't what Whoopie calls "rape-rape"?
The kind Matt Lauer doesn't want sober women to be able to defend themselves against?
Hang 'em High
Burlington City Council passes proposal to let noncitizens vote [More]The one guy who disagrees because he knows where the money comes from is out-voted by a college "student" and an alien of undetermined legality.
Majority rule means the lynch mob succeeds.

Those Devious Spirochetes
How Syphilis Sneaked Up on Americans [More]Not on any Americans in my circles.
Why does that headline give me a "The gun went off" vibe?
Oh. Magic again.
Welcome to the Party, Pals
WINSTON-SALEM ENDANGERS PUBLIC TO PURSUE ANTI-GUN AGENDA - ‘Dixie Classic Fair’ bans even armed law enforcement [More]Well good-- feel our pain.
People are willing to surrender their rights for trivial pursuits. And when it blows up on them, they'll take their anger out on those who warned them.
Tough to feel sorry for that...
Secret Snitch
House Democrats consider masking identity of whistleblower [More]So confronting the accuser is out? And hearsay is in?
Well not being able to validate anything about his motives, agenda and reputation will certainly make me feel better, not only about his credibility but about the kind of "justice" we can expect when Democrats rule!
In a Class All by Themselves
What most media commentary has missed is the striking problem that the neoliberal Chief presented for Americans: he suspended an officer for briefly depriving an illegal of his freedom by detaining him until ICE arrived, but yet has never announced suspending or investigating an officer who has deprived an American of his or her freedom during an illegal detention or arrest. [More]Yeah, well, who do you expect domestic enemies to persecute?
[Via Mack H]

Stone Walls Do Not a Prison Make, Nor Iron Bars a Cage?
Gender Bending
When masculinity turns 'toxic': A gender profile of mass shootings [More]His go-to guys for the only "information" he shares are gun-grabbers Newsom, Wintemute and assorted anti-gun eggheads? I'm beginning to wonder what Phillip Reese actually knows about either of his featured topics.
Maybe if "progressives" stopped subverting natural masculinity it wouldn't turn toxic as much?
[Via Rough and Ready]
Some Assembly Required
Attend The 2nd Amendment Rally: November 2, 2019, on the Capitol Lawn in Washington D.C. [More]I see the Saviors are all in...
I think I see why I'm finding out about this second-hand. Am I wrong in assuming the single greatest threat will be ignored?
[Via Felix B]
Doing His Duty
"And how much did you actually lose?"He evidently defines "duty" by a different standard.
"About a quarter of a billion! Pretty close."
On top of that, the assault-style rifles he still had in stock – about $5 million worth of inventory – he turned into scrap metal. [More]
[Via Michael G]
It's a Big Club and You Ain't In It
Hunter Biden received permission from the Obama White House to sit on the Ukrainian oil company's board of directors. [More]Well yeah. That's how it's done.
[Via Michael G]
We're the Only Ones Feeling YOUR Age Enough
Lowery is out on bond, but she is facing five felony charges including three counts of financial exploitation of an elderly, disabled person and two counts of forgery after investigators said she financially exploited a 96-year-old woman with dementia. [More]Hey, if she's on "unpaid administrative leave," a gal's gotta eat...
[Via bondmen]
Does This Tin Foil Hat Make My Head Look Big?
There, I fixed it for ya.Conspiracy theorists[The initial CleanUpATF source] believe[s] that gun-walking to influence public opinion in support of further gun control measures began at the highest levels of power. [More]
[Via bondmen]
Now with Three Times the Bullsh!+!
UC Davis releases three studies on gun violence prevention [More]A whole spate!
Brought to you by "The Hero of Medicine"!
In this bit of taxpayer-funded subversion we find "intimate partner violence" includes the subjective determination that what may be a long-overdue verbal rejoinder combined with the "liquor cabinet loophole" are potential areas to focus rights-erosion efforts on.
We also see a renewed push for totally unqualified gunquacks trading on perceived gravitas to offer prescriptions outside their areas of expertise, and definitively prove that if you feed a lie to enough ignoramuses for long enough with no sources of alternative information, most of them will swallow it.
Not that the bubble-headed bleach blonde, practiced at looking solemn and authoritative and all "You can have it all, girl!", hasn't bought into it herself...

A New York Minute
SCOTUS Rejects Effort by NYC to Toss Case Over Gun Control Measure [More]That said, it looks like they still could give the bastards what they want:
While the U.S. Supreme Court refused to set the case aside, the justices according to the order are prepared to address whether the matter has been rendered moot by actions to withdraw the measures by the city government and state lawmakers.
So Much for That Bright Idea
NRA Carry Guard: CANCELLED! [More]After alienating all those allies?
How much did they lose? And why wouldn't that alone be enough for a responsible board to look for a new manager?
Bargain Hunter
50K per MONTH to be on the Burisma board?
Compare to global giant ExxonMobil:

We're the Only Ones Undeserving Enough
A Florida city commissioner shocked his colleagues during an awards ceremony for outstanding officers last week when he claimed one of the honorees was a "bad police officer" who had falsely arrested him years earlier. [More]Not to take sides, but why does the commish come across like an entitled "Do you know who I am?" type?
[Via bondmen]
October Surprise
As Dennis looked for the source of the noise, Bergan jumped out of the bushes while making a “growling sound,” startling his father-in-law. [More]That seems a bit more than a "birthday surprise" gone wrong. And didn't Bergan know Dennis was a gun owner?
And not to play Monday morning quarterback, but it probably wouldn't hurt to pre-think the scenario of what to do if an unknown person is banging outside, and make the civil and/or criminal charges-anticipating default that unless someone outside may need protecting, to hunker down inside in case the door or window is breached and call it in.
[Via bondmen]
We're the Only Ones Honking Mad Enough
We're the Only Ones Diverted Enough
A former Wichita police detective who retired while under investigation for alleged sexual harassment has been granted a diversion from criminal prosecution. [More]"Retired"?

I am Woman, Hear Me Roar
Chronister said the amount of “highly destructive materials” police found in the home was “astonishing.” They included 24 pipe bombs Kolts had personally made, 23 knives, six handguns, two rifles, two hatchets, nunchucks and fuse materials, he said. [More]Do all those orange tips mean what I think they mean? And I don't see anything specific about having ammunition, powder, and fuses...
But say she had everything needed. Who thinks red-flagging her and confiscating the stuff while leaving her undetained would end the danger? Now at least she gets due process.
While her Facebook is still up I see she "liked" the "anti-fascist" and "anti-Trump" Advocates for the Alternative Voting System, which could mean her possession of The Turner Diaries, which police and media are making sure we all know about, wasn't because she agreed with it.

Or do I dare bring that up?
[Via several of you]
An Uncertain Alliance
Proposed Florida Gun Laws [More]This looks like a pretty good resource for more than that.
My only caution is I can't see who is behind it to establish bona fides, something I'd need to see before encouraging donations and the like. It's not like we haven't seen "gun groups" needing a deeper look before.
The website is registered by proxy and I can find neither tax nor business entity filings -- all I could find is someone I have never heard of in Pennsylvania. Google searches don't help much either. If I had more time I'd dig deeper, but all I can do right now is email them the link to this and invite them to introduce themselves.
And maybe you know all about them and you're wondering how it is I don't. Sorry, been kind'a busy and just can't field it all. Feel free to edumacate me in comments.
