Walk, Don't Run

Y'know, instead of Project Gunrunner, I'm gonna start calling this latest mess Project Gunwalker.

Vanderboegh has some great new information.

I hope to have some additional information about this before too long.

UPDATE: Mike has more.

Defiant New Zealand newspaper shoots back at Gun Rights Examiner

This latest clumsy CYA attempt is transparent and, frankly, pretty damn lame. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column watches a man deepen a hole for himself.

If you dig it, please share the link.

Pot Shots

Spurred on by an email posting by David Codrea, the emailers shot high – but usually low – at the integrity of Ms Stewart, questioned this newspaper's political standing and demanded apologies. [More]
Hey, at least they spelled the name right...

Patience...

Working on trying to bust some info out of the container. It's totally derailed any posting efforts today.

More information on ATF ‘walking’ guns across Mexican border

That would make this an international law enforcement incident, would it not? [More]
Breaking news...direction not to say anything to Mexican authorities came from the top.

Defying History

Dennis Henigan apparently thinks we don't pay nearly enough attention to revisionist subversives. [Read]

He oughta know.

A Real Paradox...

How the "highest court" can have the lowest traitors...[Read]

We're the Fauxnly Ones...

Detroit Police are searching for some fake cops who are kicking down doors and robbing and terrorizing people in their own homes. [More]
These stories often prompt "What's the difference?" comments.

Exactly.

So just be aware that there are plenty of news accounts out there, just in case you ever need to use the confusion as a defense.

We're the Only Ones Urban Legends Enough

The Captain says the violent gang exists.  The Chief says they're a rumor. [Read]

I find it hard to believe--after all, we're talkin' Milwaukee here...

We're the Only Ones Stung Enough

“I think we’re all sick” about the allegations, Police Chief Rick Armstrong said yesterday. I think we’re embarrassed.” [More]
No doubt. Having this stuff come to light about your "elites" has gotta be a real downer.  Kind'a makes me wonder about the ones who aren't so special and trusted...

Injustice Everywhere

One of the great injustices is that so many "Authorized Journalists" who have utterly abandoned any sense of being government watchdogs are so well rewarded, while the lonely voices working day in and day out in relative obscurity constantly struggle to eke out a minimalist existence.

Reader Mark Matis submitted this as a comment on my plea for Vanderboegh (everyone who visits him regularly has done something, right?). I didn't approve the comment there because I think it merits a standalone mention, so as not to get buried and ignored in an old post, which, face it, very few go back to visit.
The guy who runs this site:
http://www.injusticeeverywhere.com/
could use some help as well, although he would probably prefer any leads towards a job using his skills. He provides and compiles his info in an unbiased manner and I believe he deserves support for his efforts.

Happy New Year!

I note there is a "Donate" button. 

Gun owners should be aware of multiple ATF developments

Several updates to stories previously discussed in this column that involve the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives ought to be understood by all gun owners interested in keeping informed. [More]
This morning's Gun Rights Examiner column links to the latest on Andrew Traver and BATFU's "emergency" long gun registration scheme, and shows us how the Bureau intends to tighten its belt--or at least give that appearance.

Also note the return of an important resource, meet an editorial enabler and watch a rerun in case you missed the live performance.

ATF source confirms ‘walking’ guns to Mexico to ‘pad’ statistics

"It's true. Pure fact verified. Ongoing inv(estigation..." [More]
I have done everything I can to responsibly investigate and verify this--otherwise, I would not have run it. It would be foolish to assume that certain people do not want this looked into. It just seems turning on the lights is the most prudent course.

Help me do that by sharing the link?

GRE Round Up for January 5

It's a Bird! It's a Plane!

It's gonna be Deadman if this comical fool ever runs up against the wrong arch-villain. [Read]

Somehow, he doesn't impress me as being faster than a speeding bullet.

Protecting the Environment

University president Michael Young wrote in a memo that “having weapons in plain sight on this campus creates a fearful and intimidating campus environment.” [More]
I dunno, Mike, if we're talking environmental issues here, have you seen how long it takes these things to degrade in a landfill?

Assuming you ever change yours...?

Lee Paige, the founding father/patron saint of the "Only Ones" continues to bring us comedy gold. [Read]
