Helping Hands

At present, Hands doesn’t have a lawyer.

So for our first Houston Advocate case, we’d like to reach out to our readers. Any ideas about how this 92-year-old can be reunited with his weapons? [More]

I've forwarded this to some people who may be able to get this taken care of...

I Don't Know Art But I Know What I Like

Brilliant.  This guy deserves to be famous. [More]

How he managed to do this without a grant from the National Endowment of the Arts, I'll never know.  I guess if he'd dipped some crucifixes in urine...

That kind of illustrates the difference between the two Americas, don't you think?

Hey, you don't want to tamper with a defense that works.

Will Indiana gun owners let GOP establishment foist Lugar on us all again?

Where the battle will be is in the primary, so the ball is now in the court of Indiana gun owners.  If you are one, what real efforts and expenditures will you personally make to toss the scoundrel Lugar out on his ear? How will you join together with other gun owners to make that your goal and then to attain it? [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner report looks at a race that should be a no-brainer for gun owners--assuming  gun owners will focus their brains on it and then actually do something.

Vanderboegh Medical Update

Just got off the phone with Mike--he is undergoing a very painful procedure to...uh...move things along.

They may actually be releasing him on Friday, but I'll believe it when I see it.  When I talk to him he sounds like he's been through what he's been through.

I see from Sipsey Street some feel inclined to comment.  I wish you wouldn't, and would instead consider the effort it requires of him to respond, and the fighter's personality that compels him to.  I wish you'd do this instead--if you want to be helpful, send him your best wishes in a card.  From my post-op report:

Support can still be sent via the donation button at Sipsey Street Irregulars, and to   P.O. Box 926, Pinson, AL 35126...Cards can be sent to him via Trinity Medical Center, 800 Montclair Road, Birmingham, AL 35213.

This Day in History: March 21

THE EDINBURGH ADVERTISER, Scotland, March 21, 1780 Page 2 has a report noting: "...we are informed that since the retreat of the French & rebels from Georgia, that province is restored to a state of perfect tranquility. Those who had the insolence to refuse his Majesty's gracious offers of protection & security...have at least, either through fear or from conviction, submitted & enrolled themselves amongst the King's liege subjects..."

Your Tax Dollars at Work

Here's another story that came out last year that I just ran across.  My suggestion, if you don't want to get really PO'd: Don't click here.

Physician, Heal Thyself

I'm getting emails asking if I've heard anything about new gun questions being asked by doctors as a result of Obamacare, as a new Medicare tactic for elderly suicides, and by the VA to determine if veterans are a danger to themselves and others.

I haven't had time to track any of these rumors down, so if anyone has heard anything definitive and can provide validating links or copies of new forms, please let me know.

In the mean time, if any doctor does engage in a boundary violation, ask him to fill out the embedded form for your medical record.

A Taxing Problem

A spokesman for the AG explains that the siblings "weren't aware of the initial missed payments, which happened in the last months of their mother's life when she was battling illness." [More]

This story is actually almost a year old, but I just ran across it and think it illustrates something about this character who is so quick to run our lives while neglecting the ones he should be paying attention to. Every time this f***er gets caught, he doesn't know a damn thing.

My parents are elderly. My Dad is incapacitated. My Mom is overwhelmed.  We kids take it on ourselves to involve ourselves in their bills and finances--as well as everything else--to make sure they're taken care of. There are no surprises. Just this morning I was on the phone with a wheelchair provider. Last week I was coordinating some documentation for their 401K. My brother is doing their taxes.  My sister flies in from AZ every several weeks.  My other sister...you get the picture. 

How the hell do you have your mother battling an illness in the last months of her life and remain deliberately indifferent to the fact that the basics aren't even being watched?  Particularly if you have the wealth and resources the Brainwasher General enjoys? 

Damn leftists--they're all crocodile tears for the--what do they call them now?--"underserved,"as long as it's your money they can do it with and someone else they can order to carry things out.

Just Say No

The brainwashing is strong in these young ruminants. [Read]

What they seem to be missing is they aren't being offered a choice.

We're the Only Ones Perceptive Enough

"It's because of the perception that exposure to human and narcotics smugglers is a bad thing for the visiting public," said Matthew Vandzura, chief ranger at the monument on the Mexican border. [More]

Gee, Matthew, ya think? So it's a perception issue?  And now we can feel safe?

I don't suppose us non-"Only Ones" with our own "assault rifles and other weapons" would sit too well with your perception of things?
