A Bipartisan Push



It goes in easier if you grab your ankles. [More]

Tillis again.

You know, the "top recipient of NRA support."

Vote the "right way" on guns now and prep for the long run with plausible deniability for the inevitable decisions.

Good thing none of this has anything to do with that "single issue."

Stop the Threat

"Road Rage Intervention" comes from Episode 12 of Season 7. Adrenaline flows as two drivers engage in road rage after one is nearly run off the road. A screaming match ensues at the stop sign and fists are flying. A couple witnessing the two men make a decision to intervene. [More]
Blessed are the peacemakers...?

Profiles in Apathy Redux

It's been up three weeks, has less than two to go and is only a quarter way to 80K? [More]

So much for "our" strength being grassroots vs. Astroturf.

Moldy labia!

An Ideal Solution?

That’s why we created the Ideal Conceal Cellphone Pistol, the discreet and easy-to-use double-barreled derringer that’s designed to look like a smartphone when folded up. [More]
We've talked about this before with mixed feelings. A major point in its favor is that Chuck Schumer got his knickers twisted.

Free advice to the webpage author:  Lose the line "The 2nd Amendment gives Americans the fundamental right to bear arms..."

If you don't know why, you've got some basic catch-up to do.

We're the Only Ones Possible Enough

He held open the possibility that the placement of drugs in the can was a reenactment of finding a second bag at some point when body cameras weren't rolling, but said that would be "inconsistent with the way that police officers do business." [More]
Yeah, sure.

With this line of bull coming from the top, who still thinks it's not systemic?

And why are the co-conspirators still unidentified?

Predictable Outcome

“He had a knife, I had pepper spray,” Lopez-Rivas told News 4 JAX. “And even though I ran for blue lights that are scattered all around, [he was] faster, stronger, and I did not win. . ." [More]
Don't worry, Charles K. Smith will save you!

Curious, how "egalitarian" Opposite Day "progressives" oppose equalizers...

Rules of the Road


But it's dated. These days it should probably say "How Not to Get Shot By the Police." [Watch]

‘Lies of Omission’ Offers Millennials Perspectives on Guns, Freedom


“Share this with your children & grand-children … If they are getting their information from their iPhone or ANY of the mainstream media outlets who pander to those in power – PLEASE – get them to devote an hour to watching this. Hopefully, a light will come on; something which is often unavoidable when facts collide with perceptions. Then encourage them further to fact-check what they hear in this film.” [More]
If you could speak to the younger generation, what would you say?

Well That Was Fast

Being away from communications access for most of my 10-day absence sure can be interesting. Just found out about Scaramucci.

Could'a told Trump the guy was trouble.

We're the Only Ones Mourning Enough

Indianapolis police say a gunshot that grazed an officer near the end of a police funeral at Bankers Life Fieldhouse appears to have been accidentally discharged from another officer's holstered weapon. [More]
Fortunately, their prohibited items policy limits weapons possession only to such highly trained professionals.

Third Time's a Charm

It was everyone else who was confused, not me. [More]
Obviously.

Last Chance

Trump is not our last chance. He's your last chance. [More]
Reminds me of something Mike said:
If we no longer have the GOP (I refuse to call them "Republicans," for they are not) to protect our rights and liberties anymore, you no longer have them to protect you either. You are now getting a taste of what it is like to talk to our side directly, unfiltered and you do not like it nor do you understand it. One other thing -- if the rule of law no longer protects us from "gangster government," it no longer protects gangster government and its minions from us, either. And remember this has NOTHING to do with the GOP, the NRA, the talk show circuit or any of the rest of your convenient, comfortable boogeymen which you blame. You no longer have them to protect you. You have us surrounded, you poor bastards.

We're the Only Ones Strongly Supportive Enough

Brand, like Dyer, is a strong Second Amendment supporter. [More]
Not that I think much of an "Only Ones" expansion proposal limited to city employees, but characterizing the mayor and chief that way really is further proof that for "progressives," every day is Opposite Day. And that makes anyone opposed to infringements and permission denials an "extremist," which, of course, is part of the plan.

I also like how the Bee "editorial board" claims "City Hall already has a sound policy in place."

Remind you of anyone or anything...?

We're the Only Ones Drawn Out Enough



Realizing who you're dealing with and what they are capable of getting away with, I would not be arguing or moving my hands. All other considerations aside, the object here is to survive the moment.

And Here's a List of Our Vulnerabilities...


For some reason, the title "Tojo Tours Manhattan Project" comes to mind... [More]

Must Read



I haven't yet, but the faith Matt Bracken has earned from me is strong. [More]

Here's why.

Exclusive: The Long March

The Long March was a retreat by the Red Army trying to evade Chinese Nationalist forces that nonetheless served to enhance the prestige of Mao Tse-tung, enabling his ascension to unchallengeable power, the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. The analogies to “progressivism” and “fundamental transformation” seem almost eerie. [More]
My latest GUNS Magazine "Rights Watch" column was posted during my absence.

Well, I'm Back


It's kind of nice disconnecting for a while. And now I've got more work in front of me than Carter has little liver pills, so please factor that in to expected responsiveness over the next few days.
