Notes from the Resistance...
Bond was denied Tuesday for a reported gang member charged with two counts of attempted murder for firing shots at police...Well he certainly sounds mad dog dangerous.
Jonathan Chait of The New Republic has proclaimed the death of conservatism and free markets...in an article titled "End of an Error: The Twilight of Conservative Rule" in the magazine's 22 October 2008 edition.Weeding out phony competitors for the mantle of "conservative" may not be such a bad thing after all...
I just posted the following reply on TNR's comment page...
Nordyke, it now appears, might help with the answer. Last week, four preeminent legal scholars... filed a friend of the court brief arguing that the 14th Amendment "and specifically its privileges or immunities clause were designed to forbid states from abridging fundamental rights of citizens, including those rights in the Bill of Rights." The Second Amendment, of course, is right there on that list.Go get 'em.
For the future the Adjutant General will send the Parole and Countersign, under a sealed cover, by the orderly Adjutant at Head Quarters, to the Majors of brigade, Scammell, Box, Cary, and Henly-- They at Gun-firing in the evening, and not before; are to deliver the parole and Countersign, to the Adjutants of their respective brigades -- The Adjutants are first to deliver the parole and Countersign, to the Officers of the advanced Guards, then to the Officer of every Guard, in and about the Camp, and then to their commanding Officers, and Corps. The Roxbury Adjutant will receive every day, at Orderly Time, the parole and Countersign, in a Seal'd Cover, directed to the Commanding General at Roxbury, who will observe the same Order, and Time of delivering them to Officers, in his encampment, as is directed to be done here.
With many citizens convinced of their right under the constitution to keep and bear arms...What, you mean like people who believe in ghosts or UFOs? This makes it sound debatable.
But the semi-automatic ammunition used in one of the weapons would have been illegal under an assault weapons ban that expired in 2004...Which ammo? It can't be the .22LR for the Walther P22, so you must mean the 9mm rounds used in the Glock 19?
A police weapons specialist who shot himself in the hand is suing the PSNI...Why? So he wouldn't have been the "Only One" shot?
His legal team is arguing that a...second person should have been present...
A sheriff’s report stated the thief entered the home of Lorain police Detective Ralph Gonzalez through an unlocked rear door and stole three bottles of liquor, the gun and a brown leather holster.The "Only Ones" loophole... maybe we ought to be demanding it be closed by turning in their guns at the end of the shift...?
Neel Kashkari, the Treasury's assistant secretary for international affairs, was selected Monday to be the interim head of Treasury's new Office of Financial Stability.Or as W-3 says in his email to me:
Kash kari (Pronounced ? maybe - "Cash&Carry") - after "Kneeling" - you might notice.
A more appropriate name for the head of the government's "take the money and run" scheme could not have been dreamed up by Stephen King or Ian Fleming.
If it weren't so tragic it might be funny.
Federal, state and local cops are huddling together in domestic intelligence dens around the nation to fuse anti-terror information and tips in ways they never have before, and they want the American people to know about it -- sort of.You know, just in case they need to impose martial law or something...
If you are an NRA member, you should consider contacting them and asking how a freedom hating militant like Burdick does not get an "F" and Gordon Smith who promised to vote to renew Bill Clinton's gun ban gets an "A-" Meanwhile, anti-gun Attorney General candidate John Kroger is unrated, and vocally pro-gun candidate Jim Leuenberger is ignored.Some have been calling for reforms for years--only to be ignored.
An apparent love triangle among three police officers erupted in violence last week, landing two of them in court Monday, officials said.If I can't be the "Only One" you love, then no one will be!
I submit to you the premise that should Barack Obama be elected President of the United States along with a Democratic majority in Congress, the nation will witness civil disobedience on a scale that would make the Viet Nam era pale in comparison.You mean that doesn't just work if you're on the political left...?
After refusing to provision a British ship, Bristol, Rhode Island, is bombarded and burned. Townspeople eventually surrender 40 sheep.
Bogus solicited only articles hostile to the individual right view of the Second Amendment, offering authors $5,000 each. But word leaked out, and Prof. Randy Barnett of Boston University volunteered to write in defense of the individual right to arms. Bogus refused to allow him to write for the review, later explaining that “sometimes a more balanced debate is best served by an unbalanced symposium.”David Hardy relates Obama's affiliation with the Joyce Foundation and the stunning, Orwellian dishonesty they have employed in the subversion of our rights.
William Ayers, author of A Kind and Just Parent: The Children of Juvenile Court (Beacon Press, 1997), says "We should call a child a child. A 13-year-old who picks up a gun isn't suddenly an adult. We have to ask other questions: How did he get the gun? Where did it come from?"A blast from the past that did not involve real bombs...
