The Immunity Syndrome

The doctrine holds that judges with bad intentions, as well as those with good intentions, are immune from suit. [More]
Mind you, that doesn't guarantee them immunity from justice. It simply means that can't be obtained within the scope of protected means of redress.

Why Do SEIU Enforcers Oppose You Having Guns?

What's also clear by their signing the Brady brief, the IBPO is endorsing edicts forbidding the keeping and bearing of arms by any but the "Only Ones" as "reasonable." I'm sure by now those of you who have visited their site will have noticed they are part of a greater Service Employees International Union (SEIU), and may be wondering if the recent beating of a state worker at an SEIU meeting because he "wanted to expose alleged corruption within the union," and the earlier "smashing a black man on the cement and calling him n*****" at a town hall meeting may help explain why they promote citizen disarmament.

This Day in History: November 30

Resolved. That General Washington be directed to publish in General orders, that Congress will speedily take into consideration the merits of such officers as have distinguished themselves by their intrepidity and their attention to the health and discipline of their men; and adopt such regulations as shall tend to introduce order and good discipline into the army, and to render the situation of the officers and soldiery, with respect to cloathing and other necessaries, more eligible than it has hitherto been.

Liberty Culture First

Any regulation makes about as much sense as ownership of another human being. Just a little is out of the question because it is unAmerican. [More]
John Longenecker adds more perspective to the "reasonability" argument.

We're the Only Ones Spraying and Praying Enough

For 62 hours, beginning 9.20 pm on November 26, 2008, Indian security forces, including the Mumbai police and the National Security Guard, fired 36,000 bullets to combat the 10 Lashkar-e-Taiba men. [More]
Meanwhile, the people being directly attacked, the ones who would know damn well who to shoot at and have targets in sight, were forbidden by law to have the means to defend themselves--and were reliant on the gang that couldn't shoot straight, that is, the "Only Ones," to save them.

Which could explain the results...

And which is just the way the IACP wants things here.

Where Are Michaele and Tareq?

I see from today's WorldNetDaily this is not the first time these social-climbing publicity junkies have stalked The One. I wouldn't mind seeing someone host a "Where's Waldo"-type contest, to see the creative places around the Lightworker-in-Chief where people with true PhotoShop skills could make the Crashin' Salahi's appear...

The most heavily-guarded location and event in the world--and we're supposed to believe the "homeland" is secure.

Meanwhile, work to disarm the ones the Founders deemed "necessary to the security of a free state."

That makes sense.

I am favored with yours of the 20th. I see no reason for changing my former opinion, in respect to Sinking the frigates to insure their safety. If they are weighed again and converted into Barracks for the seamen, they must be brought near the Shore and when the frost sets in, they cannot be sunk, should the Enemy approach at such time. I however leave the matter to your judgment. [More]

Joyce Foundation Funded OSU 2nd Amendment Center Expires [More]
Meanwhile, a hissy-fitting academic who can't spell "amendment" gets all bitchy about things. Yeah, I'm talking about you, Con-- oh, I'm sorry, I misspelled your name. And you being so self-important and relevant and all...

We're the Only Ones Importing Enough

The Customs and Border Protection employee arrested on bribery and marijuana smuggling charges was an administrator at the Ysleta Port of Entry, a prosecutor said Monday.

Martha Alicia Garnica, 43, a former CBP inspector and El Paso police officer, appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Richard Mesa for a detention hearing. [More]

We're the Only Ones Reprimanded Enough

He declined to identify the officers or say how or why they were punished. [More]
Well, of course.

Why would it be in the public interest to know which "Only Ones" think taking citizens hostage and turning them into gorilla hunt trophies is all in a day's work?

Besides, forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town. Even when we move operations over to Pittsburgh.

Chicago Gun Case Brief Shows Prohibitionists Unreasonable

What they're saying in the Chicago case is essentially the same thing they said in the Heller Washington D.C. case: Gun bans are "reasonable" and consistent with the Second Amendment proscription that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

This does not surprise anyone who has been watching these Brady characters for any length of time. [More]

I don't suppose "the professional standards department of Kent Police" might consider the predictable ramifications of giving paranoid authoritarian cowards official power over others...?
