How to Spread a Lie and Subvert Freedom in Three Easy Steps

Step One: Anti-gun "researchers" publish an agenda-supporting "study" concluding access to firearms puts women at higher risks for homicide than men.

Step Two: "Authorized Journalists" pick up on it and conflate "access" with "ownership."

Step Three: Evangelize the gospel throughout the land.

By lumping peaceable and responsible people who control themselves in with those who are violent and irresponsible, the "average" is inflated, caused almost entirely by the latter group.

That's then used to con the public into supporting the disarming of those not hurting anyone via edicts that will not affect those responsible for the abuse.

Oh, and Scott Martelle...? It's not a hobby, you idiot.

Profiles in Apathy

Why keep banging your head against the wall if nobody cares? [More]

I can't tell you how many unique and innovative efforts I've seen fold over the decades because of it.

People Back Then Could Have Never Imagined Such Weapons!

You'd be surprised. [More]

We're the Only Ones Automatic Enough

“Because the weapon had not been delivered,” Callaway says, “it didn’t meet their threshold for a crime.” [More]
I'm not buying that, but I don't have time to search the law and precedent right now. It would seem the act of agreeing to do it elevates it at a minimum to an actionable conspiracy. I think had it been you or  I, assuming you or I were this damn dumb, we'd be looking at doing serious time along with a lifetime disability.

And how the hell does one even "legally" own such a weapon and not be aware of the rules in the first place?

Stop the Threat - "Kidnappers-Part Two"

Kidnapping is a federal offense. In this two-part series, we watch as a plan is implemented and an employee is snatched from her home. If you own a brick-and-mortar business and handle cash, this is a must-see two-part series for you and your employees.

It's All a Misunderstanding

Here's the headline for an email I just received:
You people don't really believe that, do you?

Totalitarian City

"Take down the sign or go to jail. We do not approve of guns...or you." [More
The masks are coming off more and more these days.

Who still thinks it's ultimately about guns?

Isn't that the way it's supposed to work?

We're the Only One Totalitarian Enough

“I have my rights,” the man said.
“You have no rights,” the officer said. [More]
"The officer"...?

"Authorized Journalists" consider that a complete report?

A False Assumption

That Americans have historically been more homicidal than the English is almost never discussed in the contemporary gun control debate... [More]
Hold the phone right there, pally.  I'm an American and I'm not homicidal. Neither is anyone I've ever known. 

This collectivist lumping of all of us together to form a general pool is misleading and deceptive. Those of us who conduct ourselves responsibly and with self-control do not belong pooled in with the degenerates who don't. 

I'll bet you could take the 5 million or so members of the NRA, arguably the most heavily-armed civilian population on the planet, and you'd find our general and homicidal violence rates are lower than just about anyone's anywhere.

If it Ducks Like a Duck

SCOTUS waddles away from another one. [More]

Rulers don't voluntarily give up power over others. There has to be an "or else" attached to if they don't, followed by a cost/benefit tradeoff analysis.

That's the way it's always been.

The Background Check Loophole

Dang. The guys didn't even fill out any forms... [More]

We're the Only Ones "He's OK" Enough

On the plus side, they've got her confession that she hit her daughter, so that oughtta be good for a lifetime Lautenberg disability... [Watch]
