Now, here we were on the phone again, this time discussing how she had been the one caught in gunfire. Unfortunately, not much has changed in the last year for residents in neighborhoods besieged by gun violence. [More]
Based on her "solutions," no wonder:
Gauthier has ideas about how to stem the violence “that could include everything from policing but also a broader set of resources like trauma support and violence interrupters that are on the streets 24 hours in those areas,” she told me. “Or safe youth activities for as many hours as we are able to during the day ... or programs that offer stipends for young men not to shoot and make it financially worth people’s whiles to get out of the cycle of violence.
That and she's a commie.

Rabbi Makes the Irrefutable Case Against "Gun Control" [More]
We're told the new rabbinical director "currently serves as Rabbi of Temple Sholom in Springfield Ohio," which practices Reform Judaism, which sends a completely different message.
Will he be allowed by the hierarchy (which includes my old pal "Rabbi" Yoffie) to share this message with those who need to hear it most? And with this as official organization policy, will he -- and JPFO -- dare to acknowledge the great threat to continued "legal" recognition of RKBA?

Sen. Susan Collins (Maine) on Wednesday said she would support Ketanji Brown Jackson's nomination to the Supreme Court, becoming the first Republican to back her confirmation. [More]
Since when has she not been on the side of the enemy? This is why you never donate directly to the Republican Party, or to PACs that share proceeds with it.
“The Senate of 2022 is tied, with 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans, which presents Republicans with an interesting procedural option: denying a quorum in the Senate Judiciary Committee, thus preventing the nomination from being reported out of committee and placed on the calendar, and ultimately moved to the Senate floor.”
Why the "gun groups" aren't demanding their A-graders push for that is for them to explain. I'm leaning toward "You've got to keep the threat level high for successful fundraising."
Meanwhile, Clarence Thomas's health and his wife's political activism put him out on a limb that's ready to break, Roberts still has the Dolly pix hanging over his head, and we'll really find out what Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barrett are made of.
The Deep State is preparing for Republicans to sweep big in the midterms and just making sure the victory will be akin to Will Smith going home with his greatest win only to see a greater loss follow.

No, young, ignoramus, they're arresting you for assaulting, endangering, and scaring strangers, who, if not wearing protective goggles, could sustain eye injuries, or worse if they have medical conditions that can go critical when attacked.
