Catch-22.1
“We advise intelligence whistleblowers to stay away from established channels to defend against retaliation. In our experience they’ve been a Trojan horse, a trap that ends up sucking the whistleblower into a long-term process that predictably ends up with the whistleblower as the target.” [More]Savvy insiders know that. Hence, this.
Despicable Minions
You'd think a media boss "born to Jewish immigrant parents who escaped Nazi Germany" would know better than to be a Kapo for Kristallnacht.
"Progressive" Justice
What's in a Title?
I inferred from this one that it was referring to some sort of mandate. [More]
Glad to see my assumption was wrong.

A Pulitzer Prize-winning professor said it, I believe it, that settles it.
I mean, we all know how credible they all are.
Especially the "spate"-winners!*
Yeah, we're the enemy. And today is Opposite Day.

A Stench of Racism
"In the current stench of racism and division amongst Americans, why would Target single-handedly disrespect Quvenzhane Wallis and add more pain to injury as it relates to race relations?" she began. [More]You're right. There is a stench around here. Guess where it's coming from, racist Opposite Day "progressive"... And as an aside, if your daughter really did ask that question, which I doubt, you've failed as a parent, and you might want to spend more time working on your own incompetence and less on blaming whitey.
I'd say if this is all someone has to belly-ache over, they've got things pretty damn good over 99% of humanity since the line began. It's not like Annie hasn't been thought of in a more prevalent way for well over a century.
Gee, the preference for what's worked successfully and what hasn't couldn't have anything to do with even the "progressive" New York Times review concluding the reboot "cast would have been better served by a middle school production overseen by a creatively frustrated, inappropriately ambitious drama teacher than by this hacky, borderline-incompetent production," could it? Or a less-than-mediocre score on the Tomatometer (which noted "Annie hints at a progressive take on a well-worn story...")? Or that it may not even make back its production budget?
Or maybe it has something to do with who the foreseen customers for the clothing line are...?
Maybe the problem is the "progressives" at Google are racist, too.
This is the kind of utter crap that truly feeds the flames of racism. Those responsible for adding to the hate at every opportunity are every bit as culpable for violent consequences as those egging on a lynch mob.
Still, not all are without empathy for the pain.
This Day in History: January 1
It is intended by adopting this mode, that those meritorious men who have been debilitated in service shall be borne on the rolls of their regiments and receive their Provisions and other allowances accordingly untill they have an oppertunity of returning to their own States; [More]I'll be exploring 1783 this year.

Opportunities abound for New Year's gun rights resolutions
After the ball drops, who will have a better 2015, Michael Bloomberg or gun owners? That really depends on you. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes with so many options available, there is no excuse for not doing multiple somethings. Regularly.
What ISN'T Reported
A casual review of TSA-reported violations shows an average of 37 loaded firearms found across the country screened and stopped by security - that from May 23 - Dec 26 2014.
If one believes the reported failure rate of TSA screening or, say even a much-less 10% fail-rate, then one would have to assume that a loaded weapon makes it into the passenger compartment of an aircraft once a day/365.
With 365 days of chance you'd think there would be CATASTROPHE in travel. Yet we know most of the seizures are accidental in nature (non-excusable) and that the ones that make it through to destination are oft times discovered in-route and reported by the passenger later upon arrival.
Because of the LACK OF CATASTROPHE, one HAS to come to the conclusion that these are honest mistakes by honest (white-hat) travellers -- despite what the boogie man infers.The numbers on all counts may be even greater: This TSA Blog post from August shows "38 Firearms Discovered This Week (32 Loaded)." And while TSA contests reported failure percentages, the point is even more taken.
Ticking Time Bomb
It's not just ILLEGAL immigrants who will render the GOP irrelevant. [More]
Rick Oltman has been doing ground-breaking work on this very issue for years. He has some new numbers worked up that a few of us have been privy to over the last month, and he's planning on publicly releasing them soon. They do not look good.
Everyone who has been ignoring this using the false excuse that it falls outside the "single issue" has allowed things to reach this point.

Guess What Happens Tonight at Midnight?
You don't think he's going to stop at Nevada, do you?
Eat Lead, Environmentalcases!
"We agree with EPA that it lacks statutory authority to regulate the type of spent bullets and shot identified in the environmental groups’ petition," Judge David Tatel wrote for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. [More]I wouldn't relax just yet. They'll be back with something else. They always are.
We're the Only Ones Stopping Enough
Noting that nature abhors a vacuum, this may end up being an opportunity to demonstrate how people can protect themselves -- more proactively and effectively. [More]
Of course, there's this little thing called "the law" they can't be squeamish about ignoring...

You're Not?
Because some of us are, and more. A few even resort to strong words, and things like civil disobedience and preparation for resistance that those confined to official channels find unseemly. [More]
This brings to mind tensions and the schisms that existed in an earlier time...

We're the Only Ones Federalized Enough
Securing the blessings of Liberty, Opposite Day "progressive"-style... [More]
And woe unto any department that deviates.
What do you mean "What section in the Constitution authorizes this?" Don't you know the difference between "best practices" and "unfunded mandates" (we sure hope so)?
What are you, some kind of SPLC-tagged homegrown right wing extremist hater our fusion centers ought to be keeping an eye on?

UPDATE: Yeah, forget it, Mike. Nothing to worry about there.
