You've Got to Ask Yourself One Question

Whose interests will be served? [More]

I said my piece about this here. If they're not going to abolish the function -- and they're not -- how will further insulating established stonewallers within a larger and more powerful bureaucracy do anything but invite more abuses?

And Mike had a relevant sentiment he shared with "Gunwalker" whistleblower John Dodson.

The Mask is Coming Off

Radical as it may seem, perhaps it's time we took deadly force off the table for all but the most extreme of circumstances. In some countries, police don't even carry guns during day-to-day patrols and are still able to maintain law and order. [More]

And if our highly-trained, professionals are disarmed, why should we let you keep and bear arms?

This is something I've been pointing out for at least 15 years:

It's know making its way into the "national conversation on guns" with more frequency, and while I know some of you are fine with that, think through what that would mean, including how that does not make you a proponent of "gun control."

As for you "Only Ones" who have no problem coming after us mundanes, the bell is tolling for thee, and to quote a theme song of yours, "what'cha gonna do when they come for you?"

Polyphemus may promise to eat you last, but eat you he intends...

Me, I see such calls from zealots who just don't have the self-control to hold it all in as a good thing. Nothing like their ox getting gored to wake some people up, plus I'm sure the more pragmatic in the gun ban crowd would prefer not to have such plans openly discussed -- yet.

Alert! Alert! Alert! Alert!

OK, fine.  Take a moment and oppose this. If your rep is a waste, find one who isn't, and who can be communicated with independently of exclusionary contact forms.

But for people who ignore much more threatening matters, and use the "don't waste political capital" excuse to avoid leadership in fights they ought to be aggressively involved in, this email warning (with the obligatory donation request) certainly seems breathless.

Especially considering:

So what's all the hysterical urgency really about?

Medical Checkup for Daddy's Little Girl

Finally, it would be nice if Ms. Mascia or someone at your blog could actually address the points I made against Dr. Palfrey’s disgraceful, bloody shirt-waving CNN op-ed instead of copying and pasting an erroneous article from thinkprogress.org . [More]

I just found out the hit man's daughter wrote a hit piece (naturally) on DRGO a few years back, and Dr. Wheeler took a moment to expose journalistic malpractice and gross ethical violations.

You'd think with his diagnosis of something so easily treatable, and his prescription for an infusion of truth, that if she wasn't cured by now, she would at least have her condition under control. Maybe she's one of those twisted types that gets off spreading Acquired Insidious Disinformation Syndrome and enjoying the damage that does.
