Rearrange that to "a State Unworthy of a Visit."
Donald Trump has been branded a “threat to our world order” and unworthy of a state visit, after he moved to pull the United States from the international Arms Trade Treaty. [More]To paraphrase Rhett Butler, it deserves to be threatened, and often, and by someone who knows how.
SNUG as a Thug in a Rug
The idea is for children to turn in toy guns for something non-violent, like basketballs, dolls, or remote-controlled cars. [More]Basketball... there's something to imprint off of.

As for the trampling, we'll do that ourselves.
Rhymes with 'Funt'
Kamala Harris owns a handgun. That's disqualifying for a 2020 Democrat in my book. [More]Mine too, but not for the same reasons.
Interesting that Alan Funt's kid believes a woman making a choice he disagrees with should be disenfranchised from eligibility to engage in the political arena. How very Opposite Day "progressive" of him.

TKO
First Conviction Prosecuted Under SAFE Act Overturned by NYS Supreme Court [More]I wouldn't be claiming any great 2A victories just yet. The way I read this, it wasn't the state's usurped "authority" that was overruled, it was the way that bitch-slapping punk Schneiderman got the indictment.

A Healthy Sense of Self-Preservation

| [More] |
An armed off-duty Border Patrol agent who was inside the synagogue returned fire at the shooter, who then retreated in a vehicle before calling 911 and surrendering to police without incident, according to police.I wonder what those who laugh at the "good guy with a gun" meme would have been able to do.
Anybody have a count on how many California "commonsense gun safety laws" were broken? Because I see the blood-dancers are once more loathe to let a crisis go to waste.
UPDATE: Bear is following reports that the gun used to drive away the monster was kept in-house by the rabbi.
The Hatemongers of Record
NY Times publishes clearly anti-Semitic cartoon, deletes only after intense criticism [More]More proof that Opposite Day "progressives" just recycle old ideas.

Nothing to See Here
All Joking Aside
Joaquin Phoenix Joker Film Collides With Hollywood Disability Uproar [More]Because homicidal maniacs... uh, the differently moraled have feelings too.
If Word Gets Out
The potential lie that could actually destroy Trump ... If it really is the case ... we have no way of knowing ... if they are right about this and their claims can be proven... [More]In other words, they got nothin'.
But what the hell, the mission to smear by innuendo was accomplished.
'Near Church' Shooting
The shooting occurred during a cookout on the same block as Perkins Square Baptist Church [More]Disregard that this was SOP for Baltimore. Gotta build up those category stats the way they do with "school shootings."
Self-Defense is Predation
Right-wing parties are using the issue of immigration to mobilize voters ahead of the next month’s EU election, the European socialists complain. “Political predators preying on migration crisis,” the socialist candidate for the EU’s top job, Frans Timmermans, told French TV network EuroNews. [More]The commies really do have Orwell mastered.
And "candidate"? So they've finally had enough of the Eurorummy?

Yo-ho, Yo-ho, La Vida de un Pirata para Mí
Witnesses said at least six men armed with guns and knives boarded the rig at 9:30pm and proceeded directly to the third floor to wake up the crew. After locking up workers in the cafeteria, the thieves wandered freely, looting equipment, materials, money and anything of value they could carry. [More]I don't understand. How'd they get guns in Mexico?

Returning to Roots Best Chance for NRA to Heal Self-Inflicted Wounds
Those calling for such a return want NRA out of politics and focused on being Fudds. They really just want to be able to pass disarmament edicts, elect gun-grabbing politicians and appoint anti-gun judges without any significant organized opposition. Curiously, although unintended by those offering such “advice,” returning to its roots is exactly what is needed. [More]The real roots involved training American citizens to become proficient in keeping and bearing “weapons of war.”

Options
Option 1. A majority of the Board circles the wagons in defense of Wayne LaPierre and his pals and tries to weather the storm. (They’ll fail, and the whole ship will sink.)
or
Option 2. A majority of the Board fires LaPierre and other executives (or accepts their resignations) and nullifies their contracts, suspends all vendor contracts pending thorough review and renegotiation, and purges culpable members of their own body – demonstrating a commitment to safeguarding NRA assets on behalf of the membership. (Plugging the holes and possibly saving the ship.) [More]While my vote would be for #2, my money would be on #1.
I'd also bet on lawsuits being in the future.

UPDATE- Option 3:
NRA’s Wayne LaPierre Says He Is Being Extorted, Pressured to Resign - Group’s longtime leader says Oliver North, president of the NRA, wants him outNorth is a creature of Ack-Mac, so I'm not looking at this as a development where the prime concern is serving the right to keep and bear arms.
UPDATE- Option 1 it is:
Taking the stage later Saturday, LaPierre got two standing ovations from the crowd of more than 1,000 NRA members...I just hope Patrick didn't hurt his hands.
Trump at NRA Leadership Forum
It's live at this point but you can back it up to where Chris Cox introduces Mike Pence.
It figures they'd introduce "great champion of the Second Amendment" Donald Trump with Lee Greenwood singing about how rights are given...
And whose idea was it to end his speech with "You Can't Always Get What You Want"?
UPDATE: He's withdrawing from the Arms Trade Treaty and some idiot threw a phone onstage.
