La Religion de la Paix

 Two of the officers "carry out a weapon exit, retreat," noted the police report, and fire in the direction of the individual several times. Hit in the chest, the attacker falls on the tracks but gets up and goes back to the platforms. He then rushes at the police, shouting "Allahu akbar", "France is ruled by the Islamic State". [More]

Banking on Disarmament

 U.S. Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and U.S. Reps. Madeleine Dean (D-Pa.), and Jennifer Wexton, (D-Va.) introduced The Gun Violence Prevention Through Financial Intelligence Act, H.R. 5764, in the U.S. House of Representatives and in the U.S. Senate as S. 3117. The legislation is troublesome because the politicians authoring it pitch it as a means to detect and prevent those who might be planning to commit an atrocity or terror attack. [More]

And guess who they want everyone to think are atrocity-committing terrorists.

 If the new Supreme Court stymies gun safety laws, what comes next? [More]

This premise as stated makes me wonder why this infringements promoter has been afforded so much respect by some in the armed citizen advocacy community. "He's not as bad as ShannonWatts" just means he doesn't scare as many people away with a lunatic demeanor, making incremental erosions seem non-threatening and reasonable to those who don't know any better.

The Treason of the Healers

Most of them acted like a physician I know who, after receiving a stack of studies from a patient regarding the potency and durability of natural immunity (none of which he had read or even heard of) along with a request for a statement attesting to the patient’s recovery from Covid, literally ran out of the room for 15 minutes, only to return with a mealy-mouthed and gaslighting statement that in no way confirmed his charge’s recovery nor the now scientifically undeniable fact of his near total protection from both getting and transmitting the virus.  [More]
