They Blow Up So Fast These Days


Authorities in Sweden have been accused of mislabelling explosions and bombings and classifying incidents as “damage” in order to distort the true extent of explosions across the country. [More]

For Texas, 2019 marked another deadly year of mass shootings [More] 

Not that it's in the Herald Democrat's interests to flesh out incidents they cite to elaborate about comparative numbers, ignored warnings, good guys with guns and "gun-free zones."

Sowing Discord


“Misinformation about one of the safest herbicides ever produced has created a lucrative business for ambulance-chasing lawyers and NGOs—at the expense of native species.” [More]

I don't doubt that for a second. The point of rubbing Shannon's face in it is to highlight the monumentally hypocritical inconsistency of the left for giving someone advancing another goal of their agenda a pass -- and frankly, to start a fight among the factions.

...Columbia, S.C. mayor Steve Benjamin for his repeated attempts to impose unconstitutional firearm restrictions on city residents [and] his wife – S.C. circuit court judge DeAndrea Benjamin – and so many of her judicial colleagues keep putting violent criminals back on the streets in the name of “justice reform.” [More]
So what does the wife have to say about the strippers brought back to the hotel room...?

Opposing Goals


“I would really like to see more women saying ‘Not me” rather than ‘Me Too.'” [More]

And gun-grabbers would rather women be victims so they can lay blame on those they wish government usurpers to persecute -- and they don't care how many have to be brutalized and killed to get their way.

A Matter of Policy

A Mount Holyoke College professor was arraigned Friday after an alleged brutal assault against another faculty member with a rock, a fire poker and garden shears, according to the Northwestern District Attorney’s Office and a college spokeswoman. [More]

In four separate trials, Reynhard Sinaga, 36, was found guilty of assaulting 48 men whom he drugged after taking them back to his apartment from outside bars and clubs in the city of Manchester. [More] 
I never have completely subscribed to "Don't blame the victim."

I'm sure if I cared enough to spend some time looking for it I might be able to find some sympathy. Possibly. But probably not.

When Incompetents Ruled the Earth


(1) ‘Automatic or semi-automatic gun’ means any weapon which shoots or is designed to shoot: (A) Automatically, more than six shots, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger; or (B) Without any action needed to fire consecutive shots, other than having ammunition loaded in such weapon’s feeding device. [More]

We're the Only Ones Most Recently Reflecting Enough


According to the Utah Law Enforcement Memorial website, the 37-year-old deputy had stopped a vehicle and was approaching it when she was shot at with a high-power rifle, where one of the rounds passed through her body armor and inflicted a fatal wound. [More]

Forget that her killer was a deported illegal alien, which for some reason didn't make it into the "most recent reflection" by "Retired Police Officer - NYPD" -- we have "Only Ones" talking points to exploit here. If only weapons of war weren't easier to buy than books and vegetables.

As I've admitted before, the only Krypto I claim any familiarity with is Superboy's dog. I just don't get the whole Bitcoin thing and don't know if it's the blockchain concept or just my mental block. Then again, I don't get video games, either. Or calculus, economics, chemistry and quantum physics...

Perhaps had I been born later, my inability to comprehend would have been diagnosed as ADD. But as is, I can't present myself as competent to weigh in on this. What I can do is call it to the attention of those of you who are, so that you are aware of it and in a position to make your own informed decision.

God Forbid Any 'Gun Rights Leader' of Note Should Admit This


A report by the Wall Street Journal details how a “demographic shift” — with the help of more than 1.2 million legal immigrants being admitted to the United States every year — is changing the American electorate in favor of Democrats. [More]
Thank goodness this has nothing to do with that "single issue."

Either that or every single one of the "leaders" who ignore and/or refuse to unequivocally address my challenge is either an incompetent or a fraud. If you are one of those, I just publicly slapped you in the face. I dare you to respond.

Mark Warner Exposes Huge 'But'


"There may be areas around certain assault weapons where there may be disagreement, but I would hope again these communities would register their concerns, but again, I'm only going to support something that's going to be constitutional but I do believe there are certain areas where the vast majority of Virginians, and I say this as somebody who owns firearms, I'm a second amendment supporter, can find some common agreement," he tells CBN News.

Post-Game Analysis



Hindsight, of course, being 20/20, it's relatively easy to point out who did what wrong, and I question how long it would take most people, including trainers, to process and respond appropriately to a surprise. When you're in practice, you expect it. When you're away from the range, very few are able to instantly and effectively react.

If you don't believe me, tailgate on the freeway.

That said, there are helpful observations for us to apply here that will be forever lost on those willful sheep who deliberately make themselves easy pickings.

I am going to be more frank than usual, if the Republican Party does not boot both Davis and Orrock from the Party, they are helping the anti-gun radicals in the Democratic Party and sentencing Virginia to decades of Socialist rule. [More]

Gun owner voters allowing such as these to be rewarded under "lesser of two evils" justification is precisely why Republicans feel free to betray them without fear of consequence.
