What's in an Acronym?

WIFLE? [Read]

Is that what Elmer cawwies?

And why am I reminded of Lilly Von Schtupp? (Oh, it's twue, it's twue!)

I guess something more true to their mission, say, Constitution-Usurping Nazi Terrorist Sows, might not make for effective PR...

We're the Only Ones Judgmental Enough

The chamber voted overwhelmingly to convict U.S. District Judge Thomas Porteous on four articles of impeachment stemming from corruption and perjury charges; on the first charge, involving corruption charges from his tenure as a state court judge, the vote was 96-0. [More]

I think I'm going to start using "porteous" as an adjective...

They Must All Hang Up Together...

...or most assuredly they shall all hang up separately. [More]

“I don’t care what you think of my views,” he said. “And I don’t care what your readers think of them either.”

So there. I know you are, but what am I? Sticks and stones. I'm rubber, you're glue.


Why, the idiot is a child...

And not a very bright one.

We're the Only Ones with a Shocking Loss Enough

Coincidentally enough, it happened across the pond in Sarah Brady Paradise... [Read]

Still, if we're too hard on the hapless chap it might demean him and injure his self-esteem. After all, it's hardly his fault he suffers from OONS (Only Ones Negligence Syndrome)...

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

People who break the law should no longer be branded offenders, a leading criminal justice campaigner has said.


Frances Crook, head of the Howard League for Penal Reform, said the "insulting" term demeans individuals and hinders their rehabilitation. [More]

How about "Alternative Morality Disorder (AMD) sufferers"? They have feelings, too, you know.

A rose by any other name.

Don't call me Norman. Call me "Chubsy-Ubsy."

We're the Only Ones Pocketing Enough

Okiwe allegedly told probationers to pay their probation fees in cash, which he pocketed, otherwise he would "violate" them by hauling them into court on a probation violation and possibly send them back to jail, according to sources. [More]

Take a tip from someone who does...?

Chicago database a tool to discourage gun ownership, not to fight crime

That, of course, is nonsense, a cover story for the gullible that masks true intent. This is part of Daley’s revenge for his court loss, an attempt to make things as difficult as he can “legally” get away with, and a way to set traps for gun owners in the bargain. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at a systematic harassment campaign backed up by the threat of lethal force that includes the potential for state-sponsored terrorism.

You know, the Chicago way.

Also, hear some sharp words and pointed commentary.

Battle of Beliefs?

When a young man is pulled over carrying guns with filed-off serial numbers, Nick and Pete try to get the charges thrown out on the next episode of The Defenders.

EXPIRED PROMO REMOVED BY CBS. 

For the time, being, you can watch the complete episode here. Or maybe not--I couldn't load it.  You're not missing much.

Hollywood dramatizes "illegal guns" and RKBA?

Vigilantes? Heavily armed? Darn right I'm in.

Allow me to predict a smear job that makes pretenses at presenting sympathy for all sides. Something about guns killing federal agents--and knowing CBS is behind this--tells me there's an agenda.

Here's hoping I'm wrong and that I owe all concerned an apology.

I'll know tonight.

UPDATE: All you need to know--Helmke liked it.

Breaking News: Rosenberg Arrested

We've just received word that our friend and fellow activist Joel Rosenberg has been arrested by the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office on a felony warrant, signed by Judge Janet Poston, over his lawful carry of a handgun into Minneapolis City Hall on November 5 of this year... [More]

You can see what a menace to society Joel is here (make sure you also watch parts 2 and 3).

The Northern Muckraker has the lead on this, so check that site for timely updates.

We're the Only Ones Paternal Enough

Marshallville police officer arrested, accused of shooting in direction of sons [More]

Now just a dang minute here...

I thought the law presumed "Only Ones" could handle their liquor better than us mere mortals.

Oh, now it's clear:

Moore filed an Equal Employment Opportunity complaint against Fort Valley police in which he alleged that Anderson does not promote or provide training opportunities for black officers...

Well, why didn't you say so?

While my initial reaction is to say I never needed training opportunities to tell me not to get boozed up and shoot at my boys, or to slam on my brakes in a fit of road rage to cause an accident, or to lie, well, that probably just means SPLC is right, and people like me are hate-filled bigots.

Either that or this angry, racist ticking time bomb is just a defective, self-entitled headcase blaming everyone and everything else for his being a loser...

Hell, I'd have been surprised if they hadn't.

Poster Boys

Dennis and Josh...

It's not that they're unoriginal so much as it being a matter of why let a good pejorative go to waste, especially if you can turn it into a meme...?

And these particular poster boys are good at that.

A Domestic Terrorist

A teenage hunter in Montana is facing a school hearing in a few days that could derail her college plans, career hopes and even risk her identification as a "domestic terrorist" after she inadvertently parked in a school parking lot with a hunting rifle locked in a case inside her car trunk. [More]

Gary Marbut issued an email alert on this yesterday and I just had too much on my plate to address it. Glad to see Bob Unruh has done his typical excellent job of laying out the essentials.

Yeah, the blessings of Liberty will be secured by hammering this girl down on  the "zero tolerance" anvil.

Every time I see some functionary falling back on that as an excuse to preempt human volition, it reaffirms how subversive the hive mentality is.

The Domestic Enemy

The American people do not want to give tax cuts to billionaires. [More]

Think about that, and what it really means.
