What's the Little Matter of Being Wrong Got to Do with It?

They know their whole shtick depends on liars and idiots, so having those who aren't either see through their fraud is no big deal. [More]

To Prevent Another ‘Abramski,’ Get in the Fight

But in the end, the ultimate argument contained in the 2nd Amendment— “shall not be infringed” — was never made, because to do so would alter the balance of power, and people who have power never cede it unless they have no choice. [More]
My "The Shooter's Log" commentary on the recent SCOTUS ruling is now posted.

A "Straight News" Lede, AP-Style

Visitors will be allowed to bring concealed guns into the Kansas Statehouse starting in July because legislative leaders on Thursday refused to exercise the power granted to them by state law to prevent it. [More]
Not because gun owners directed their will to their representatives who then obeyed them...?

Breaking the Strangler's Grip

Rand Paul Offers Amendment to Stop Eric Holder’s Operation Choke Point [More]
We've talked about this outrageous bit of tyranny-motivated financial engineering here and here.  Now GOA gives us a chance to help do something about it.

Why not make doing this and spreading the word today's Five Minute Activism project?  I just did:

Well, that was easy. Now if only they'd create a utility encouraging gun owners with total crap reps to contact (and support) good reps in up-for-grabs states and districts.

An Assault Weapon

I hope the driver got their license and this video is used to establish intent, because that was an assault and the punks deserve to be criminally prosecuted and sued civilly, as well as publicly identified. [Watch]

A Different World

I'll say. Just look at what passes for an "award-winning columnist" these days. [More]

We're the Only Ones Pimping Enough

Prosecutors charged a veteran King County sheriff’s deputy Thursday with helping his estranged wife work as a prostitute, stealing department ammunition and illegally delivering testosterone in a case that could implicate other deputies and commanders in the department. [More]
And the story gets even better, with ammo, brass, domestic assaults and...

“The worst part about this is the culture that existed that allowed this to happen”...
What, you mean that culture we've been discussing here on a regular basis for years?

Say, those are quite a few "few bad apples"... why, if I didn't know better, I'd start to think it's systemic and pervasive, and that someone would do something about it. You know, before people are left with no choice but to either suffer continued outrageous abuses with no "legal" defense or recourse, or deal with intolerable conditions themselves...

I know, I'm just a cop basher. I haven't goose-stepped a mile in their jackboots. And the next time I'm in trouble, I should rescue myself instead of expecting them to come protect and save me.

We're the Only Ones Excessive Enough

And telling us we can't be violates our Constitutional rights! [More]


If I had time, I'd play off this to come up with a suggested alternative to these.

Project Gangwalker

Border patrol agents say gang members are crossing our border illegally, turning themselves in and getting the green light into our country.

They are unaccompanied minors. [More]
Beautiful DREAMers...

The Obama administration continues to make war on America with full complicity of both Democrat and Republican establishments, and with cover from the Fourth Estate Fifth columnists. And they're all confident they can get away with it.

So when these young gangsters start doing what they do best, the useful idiot MILMs  can bemoan more "child gun deaths" and we can see more outraged demands to disarm you and me, along with accusations that we are haters and domestic terrorists.

Ah, "fundamental transformation"!

Disease?

I do have at least a temporary solution, though, for  all those taking advantage of the conspiracy to flood across the border: Sheldon is a human first and a weakness exploiter/vice kingpin second. Or at least the billionaire welfare parasite claims to be, while getting cheap maid service and unloading the true costs on the rest of us. Let them stay at The Sands properties.

Harry takes home top honors! [More]

This Day in History: June 20

Thomson submitted this design to Congress on June 20, 1782, and the Great Seal was approved that same day. [More]

We're the Only Ones Cutthroat Enough

A Baltimore City police officer was arrested and charged with aggravated animal cruelty and other charges after cutting the throat of a dog, police officials announced Wednesday afternoon. [More]
Where do they get these sadistic barbarians?

We're the Only Ones Re-Upping Enough

To repeat: a drunk cop doing 143 MPH in a 55 is demanding his job back. And the police union is helping him get his job back. [More]
Well, yeah, it would be a shame to lose all that experience he obviously has mastered.

Job Title Has Nothing to Do with It

The question I'd be asking is who has the legitimate authority to infringe on any free person's choice. [More]

I mean someone we can actually see, because the One we can't leaves our choices up to us.

Lordy, Lordy

Look who's 40... [More]

Gatekeepers

A senior at one Connecticut high school has asked administrators to explain why he can access websites like Islam-guide.com, the State Democrat site and Planned Parenthood on the school’s computers — but not sites for the NRA, the State GOP or Christianity.com. [More]
Oh, well, it's strictly an efficiency move.  It saves us from having to sic Jinging and Chacha on you.

We're the Only Ones Not Infringing Enough

"This is not about infringing on anyone's second amendment rights,” Baltimore Police Sgt. Jarron Jackson said. “It is not about taking a gun away from a person.  It is about making sure our citizens are safe and removing a potential threat that could cause someone to be a victim.” [More]
Or as Kirk said to Krako:
Who's inerferin'? We're takin' over.

Sunshine State Subversion

Florida Carry says "assistant attorneys general and local state prosecutors are out of control in fighting against the Second Amendment." [More]

Count Chocula Must Die!


We talked about cultural offenses the other day.

Here's the thing, and I've been meaning to say something about this for some time, but it's just so intimidating going up against powerful special interests and popular sentiment...

Many of you may not know my heritage is Romanian, and more specifically, pure-blooded Transylvanian.  I can't tell you the number of times I've disclosed that to people only to have them respond with bad Bela Lugosi (a Hunky, for goodness sake!) impersonations and remarks about vampires.

I am so sick and tired of being disparaged as a people with such negative stereotyping. It's demeaning. It makes me feel bad.

And then to see an evil corporation taking the stereotype to the next level and turning it into a cartoon... Meanwhile, my poor kids have it twice as bad, being half Irish (Thanks "Lucky." And what the hell is this?  "Fighting Irish"? No wonder those people drink!)

We're the Only Ones Executing Enough

And naturally, "the shooting was justified." [More]
