Like there is a statistically valid correlations from such a small sampling to draw such conclusions. [More]
I note this article does not define "mass shootings" nor differentiate between some nut job exploiting a "gun free zone" and Chi-Town Democrats enjoying a typical weekend. But the impression has been made, courtesy of selective "real reportering" from our good pals at the Associated Press.
Also unmentioned: Shootings with walked guns that took place before Holder's tenure and after, and of course, shootings by local, state and federal "Only Ones"...

Free downloads for second book in ‘Enemies’ trilogy start today
As such, it’s not an easy book to face up to, and is, in this era of suppressing and attacking anyone who dares challenge “progressive” correctness, a brave one. The author was fully aware of the charged criticism some would level on him for reacting to existing movements and extrapolating existing trends into a potential near-future scenario. [More]
This afternoon’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes an offer you shouldn't want to refuse.
The Anti-Gun Ignoramus Loophole
Why does Napoleon Dynamite come to mind here? [More]
This is one of the reasons I think it inadvisable for pro-gun groups to do anything but flat-out oppose edicts being drafted. Trying to help mitigate finer points means guiding the enemy through unfamiliar territory--best to just warn against venturing there in the first place, but if they insist, let them find the crevasses on their own when they fall into them.

We're the Only Ones for Reasons Given Enough
Reasons was given his pistol after trial and instructed to be more careful with his firearms when out of his native state In the future. [More]And the corrupt "Only Ones" were canned?
Sounds pretty reasonable to me.
We're the Only Ones Selectively Enforcing Enough
Two sets of standards? And all of a sudden a gate appears in that "wall of separation" between church and state? [More]Here's what really needs to be determined--were frames or receivers transferred?
My favorite bit:
The dean of the Cathedral, the Rev. Gary Hall, spoke at Mrs. Feinstein’s media event. Wearing a clerical collar and standing in front of the illegal guns, he said that, “I can no longer justify a society that allows people other than military and police to own weapons like these.”Well gee, Gar, you "progressive" hipster, you, seeing as how much the "justification" of a police state fascist hiding behind a collar means to me... say, you're not going to accompany the confiscation teams, by any chance, are you?

Define "Large"
Possession of large amounts of weapons, ammunition, explosives, accelerants, or explosive precursor chemicals could indicate pre-operational terrorist attack planning or criminal activity. [More]Pretty much the same way possession of hands could indicate pre-operational strangling attack planning, I suppose...

Connecticut gun group honored as ‘Organization of the Year’
Anyone who has ever been part of an organizational effort knows there's always such a core, who bear most of the burden and who make most of the personal sacrifices, enduring no shortage of slings and arrows, and getting up to do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next. And they don't do it for awards. [More]This morning’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes it’s appropriate to say “Thank you” on occasion to those who merit it. It’s even more appropriate to lend a hand and help those bearing heavy burdens on our behalf.
This Day in History October 21
We were supposed to build barracks there. But because we did not want to agree to that right away, but rather made ourselves straw huts, we were treated very severely. A sharp command from the corporal forced us to build the barracks and it was our good fortune because all our straw huts were consumed by fire on October 21, 1781. [More]

Bill Russell arrest shows even doctrinaire Obama supporters value guns
That Russell actively supports an administration hostile to private gun ownership may seem self-defeating, particularly since Illinois Senate candidate Barack Obama answered “Yes” on a questionnaire asking “Do you support state legislation to … ban the manufacture and possession of handguns?” [More]

Patron Saint of Stooge Media
Omidyar, by contrast, has opened his checkbook mostly to the Democratic Party. [More]Because "legitimate media" just isn't "progressive" enough...
Who better to exert such powerful influence than a guy whose flagship company mandates this policy?
Another "Shutdown" Benefit

Teach Your Children Well
That's quite some "enrichment exercise." So much for "zero tolerance" and "no bullying" policies. [More]
Can you imagine being Ken Derksen, and knowing your function in life is to be an excuse-making flack? Must be nice to be on that public school gravy train, where they can afford "public information officers."
The moron who planned this, the moron who approved it, the moron who did it and every moron who participated in it deserve to have the same thing happened to them and their families.
I was hoping it would also be a prosecutable crime, but NC statutes would appear to give them a pass on at least one count:

I was hoping it would also be a prosecutable crime, but NC statutes would appear to give them a pass on at least one count:
(g) This section shall not apply to any of the following:
(1) A weapon used solely for educational or school-sanctioned ceremonial purposes, or used in a school-approved program conducted under the supervision of an adult whose supervision has been approved by the school authority.
I suppose it could also be argued a toy gun is not really a "weapon" for the purposes of the statute, but I still question whether or not assault and some sort of terrorism charges could be applied... and then there's that business about adult supervision...
And they wonder why the weakest ones snap.

About That Mental Health Blanket Dragnet
By virtue of the fact that it's a net means it's mostly made of holes. [More]
Not that Wayne and NSSF and all the other proponents of throwing one group down to gain traction for the bus wheels will stop undermining the fact that "gun control" does not work. Not the "enforce existing intolerable acts" kind, nor the "touch a gun get five years in jail" kind, or any of the other nonsense they endorse.
Anyone who can't be trusted with a gun can't be trusted without a custodian. Some may not like that simple truth, but they can't invalidate it.
Until that truth is first acknowledged and then acted upon, any public policy response denying it will be certifiably nuts -- or calculatedly evil.
