Shall Not Be Infringed--Unless the Only Ones Think You're Weird

Paul Dorr, well known locally for demonstrating at abortion clinics and agitating against government spending, said he applied for a permit because he carries large amounts of cash as part of a balloon-selling business. Weber decided Dorr was too “weird” to carry a gun, although he had held a permit without any problems from the late 1990s until 2006. The sheriff put this notation on Dorr’s rejected application: “Concern from Public. Don’t trust him.” [More]

But we can trust an elitist who ignores his oath to the Constitution?

We're the Only Ones Missing in Action Enough

A Los Angeles Sheriff deputy responding to an armed robbery call this morning in West Hollywood fired eight shots at a man whom the deputy believed pointed a gun, missing him. [More]

Good thing he didn't try shooting to wound...like some of the gun grabbers who endorse the "Only Ones" doctrine would like to enact.

UPDATE: Good thing he missed! That was the clerk he was firing at...

A Black Day at the DOJ

They've  turned to the dark side.

I guess the old motif didn't really fit the new mission. It's been a lie for a while anyway...

I guess that's because the Constitution says it's about "secur[ing] the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity" instead of imposing and enforcing "the common law [and] the will of mankind"...

I guess at some point, there's no need to hide intent any more...

Isn't that right, fellow global citizens?

Overwhelmed

This goes out to all of you who sent me tips over the weekend, particularly those who sent multiple emails--I apologize, there's just not enough of me to read all of them, let alone post on them.

It goes for weekdays, too. I literally have hundreds to go through and I just can't keep up with them all.

Thank you  for understanding.

NRA posts grades and endorsements: Angle beats Reid

They have now released the grades. Their results for Nevada have been posted: Sharron Angle gets an "A". Harry Reid gets a "B."

We're the Only Ones Pig at the Trough Enough

Atlanta’s Chief Operating Officer Peter Aman is floating a proposal to the City Council that would allow Turner, 51, to “retire” on paper, but immediately be rehired as chief in order to start collecting his $100,000 pension.


Aman said that because Turner would have retired, he would collect his pension and the $200,000 salary that goes with being police chief. [More]
