Is disarming Africans a ‘greater good’?

Perhaps a demand for pricey blood bling will have the unintended consequence of reinvigorating black market profitability. [More]

Sir: By Capt. Moulton as you will receive the Commissions for your Regiment. The disproportion of Officers to men is so great and from present prospects so likely to continue so, that I must request you not to make any future new appointments in consequence of vacancies that may happen. I am, etc [More]

Alms for the Productive?

This is one of the reasons I get so prickly about credit where due.  The "Authorized Journalists" all get regular paychecks and T&E accounts.

If left to most readers, the mule working for them would drop dead from neglect.

And (as some did the last time I put out an appeal on his behalf) don't even leave a comment about how Mike should put ads on his site as a way to "pass the buck." By way of comparison, to show how that's no solution, this is what those near-useless space-wasters yield here:

Well, He Got the First Part Right

...made public by courageous whistleblowing federal agents and CBS News [More]

 Which first "made public" the story on Feb. 23, after much of this had already been "made public"...

What are Mike and I, chopped liver? Sure, I'm being self-serving.  But damn it, right is right.  And both Hedgecock and WND know better.

Decisions, Decisions...

The National Rifle Association’s (NRA) decision on whether to endorse Democratic incumbent Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) or Republican Rep. Denny Rehberg (Mont.) could be the deciding factor in what is expected to be a close contest.  [More]

Let's see....

Did Tester endorse Barack Obama?

And did he (and another Montana NRA darling, Max Baucus) support Eric Holder's nomination?

How about Sonia Sotomayor's...(again, with that other Montana NRA darling)?

Elena Kagan's...(with darling Max again)?

Did he (and darling) even go so far as to put partisanship above any semblance of morality and duty, and back citizen disarmament enthusiast Cass Sunstein?

Why is this even a fricking issue?

Funny, how in the furtherance of their "public/private partnership," the "Authorized Journalists" tell us the names of everyone involved except the badged gangbangers.

Vanderboegh: Newsweek white supremacist story hides mention of PATCON

Newsweek’s just-published éxpose on a mole’s infiltration of white supremacists purposely omits all mention of PATCON, the Federal Bureau of investigation’s undercover investigation of the “patriot conspiracy” movement, an exclusive Sipsey Street Irregulars analysis charges. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner report posts the first in a series of documents and reports from Mike Vanderboegh that expose what the "Authorized Journalists" will not.

This correspondent will be joining the program again at 9:30 pm Eastern for the regular weekly discussion on the latest developments in the unfolding "Project Gunwalker" story. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column previews this evening's Armed American Radio program.

Politicians’ views on guns reflect constituent ignorance and apathy—then and now

One might ask where the hell gun owners were when these swindlers were out there hawking their political snake oil in the hopes that enough rubes would swallow it to give them political power. And the answer is, for the most part, asleep at the wheel. [More]

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column looks at the past, present and future. Plus you can download a 50-year-old issue of GUNS Magazine--for free.

Mike Makes the Timeline

No such luck for me, despite some promising signs. Guess I'd better try harder.

Jeez, what's a feller have to do to get branded a "hater" by these commie bedwetters?

Vanderboegh reports call between ATF’s Newell and ‘Wide Receiver’ CI

In another in a series of exclusives reported on the Sipsey Street Irregulars blog, online journalist Mike Vanderboegh has obtained a transcript and recording of a telephone conversation between “Operation Wide Receiver” confidential informant Mike Detty and then-Special Agent in Charge of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Phoenix Field Division, William Newell, a central figure in the “Fast and Furious” government gunwalking scandal.

A Proposed List

I'd love to see a Jay Leno-style street interview with random OWS participants, asking questions like:

• What specific changes did the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act make to the Glass–Steagall Act, and what was that about?
• As far as social justice goes, what kind of greedy capitalist pig exploiter of the masses needs $65M, and what do you think we should do to him if he doesn't give it back?
• Etc.
