Culture Wars

When Kim Kardashian tweets out a call for gun control, it reaches 52.3 million followers. The NRA has 444,000 followers. [More]
Yes, a stepped up presence is needed, but I doubt Fairfax stodginess would know how to direct a campaign. And I disagree with the presumptuous rhetoric that "if the NRA doesn’t start figuring out how to increase their reach to match that of Hollywood, then we could find ourselves losing our gun rights."

Hutchison may lose his rights (and based on a self-imposed blindness I've seen before, he very well may), but some of us will not go gentle into that good night. Factor out all Kardashian followers not willing to exert that level of commitment and the odds don't seem so bad.

News You Can Wipe With

Why did CNN go to such lengths to smear Sheriff Clarke? Because he is a black conservative who has been appointed to a position in President Trump’s Department of Homeland Security. [More]
But it doesn't matter that they've been exposed. Their reach is much longer. Now that the meme is out, that's what will spread via social media and be believed.

The Philadelphia Epiphany

White Racism Causes Black Crime [More]
In a way, that's true, or at least that white "progressive" policies make it inevitable. Not that I expect Philadelphia "leadership" riding first class on the gravy train to grok that.

What Could Go Wrong?

The U.S. Homeland Security Department says nearly 740,000 foreigners who were supposed to leave the country during a recent 12-month period overstayed their visas. [More]
You don't say.

Rigorous!

Apportioning the Blame

It was Roger Ailes' fault.  [More]

Comments at The Hollywood Reporter show few recognize the serious consideration this cow believes she deserves.

We're the Only Ones Outing Enough

The Pasco County Sheriff's Office wrote a Facebook post on Thursday about a woman who needed help to prevent a thermos she was using for artificial insemination from exploding. She said she was mortified that the sheriff's post had enough information for people to figure out who she was. [More]
Thank goodness that's all it was. I was initially envisioning a deputy mistaking it for SlimFast...

Coming Soon to a Concert Near You

Suicide bomber kills 22 and injures 119 by detonating ball bearing bomb at packed Ariana Grande concert [More]
I wonder how a demographic steeped in indoctrinated enthusiasm for "inclusion" will process the fact that they are targets. Will any wake up, or will reality not compute, and will they continue demanding cultural suicide?

Complicit politicians, celebrities and business leaders ought to be singled out and identified with the word "RESPONSIBLE."

GOA Urges Supporters to ‘Stop Schumer’s Gun Control’

"For roughly 25 years, the ‘Schumer amendment’ to the Commerce-Justice-Science Appropriations Bill has prohibited any federal funds from being used to restore anyone’s constitutional rights,” GOA explains. “So for much of this time, if a person were a veteran with PTSD, they’re out of luck. If they had a conviction for a federal regulatory offense — fifty years ago — they’re out of luck. They will NEVER get their guns back, thanks to Democrat Chuck Schumer.” [More]
With "Republicans" in control now, what's their excuse for not fixing it going to be this time?

Strange Bedfellows

Among many other things this bill does, it nearly quintuples the length of time the State Police can deny you a firearms transfer with no cause. It also drastically complicates the process for getting a concealed handgun license. Online classes will be prohibited unless the class is provided by the NRA or an “Oregon law enforcement agency or association." [More]
I wonder how that "monopoly" got written into it...?

A Sense of Wonder

Five Capitol Hill technology aides told The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group that members of Congress have displayed an inexplicable and intense loyalty towards the suspects who police say victimized them. The baffled aides wonder if the suspects are blackmailing representatives based on the contents of their emails and files, to which they had full access. [More]
So Dolly the Love Ewe shared bipartisan favors?

Extinction Level Event

Amazon is annihilating the Department Store faster than you think with 80 million prime subscribers: 4 charts showing the destruction of the department store. [More]
Dang. "Now where am I gonna go to subject myself to gun-free mall shootings?" asked no one but the terminally ignorant.

Truth or Fiction?

Kim Dotcom: 'I Knew Seth Rich. I Know He Was the Wikileaks Source' [More]
Not to worry though. WaPo assures us this is all "fake news." And we know from experience what standard bearers for the unvarnished truth they've been.

That must explain the establishment media blackout on this story.

Mustn't it?

What Could Justify Such Fear?

Lois G. Lerner and Holly Paz, two key figures in the IRS‘ tea party-targeting, can keep testimony about their role in the targeting secret, at least for now, a federal judge ruled Thursday. The two women had said they feared death threats and other harassment if their depositions in a class action lawsuit against the IRS became public. [More]
Other than knowledge of guilt?

Not to Alarm You

Not to alarm you, but I probably want you to quit your job, or at least take a demotion. Statistically speaking, you are probably taking up room that should go to someone else. If you are a white cis man (meaning you identify as male and you were assigned male at birth) you almost certainly should resign from your position of power. [More]
You don't alarm me one bit. And I even understand those who find you useful want more than just my job.

Not to alarm you, but if and when it gets to that, the enablers will be remembered. And who you need to worry about then might surprise you.

It figures an Opposite Day "progressive" mathematician wouldn't know how to add things up.

Dog Day Afternoons

Actually, more like evening and morning.

I'll control my guns, thank you.

You control your dogs.

We ought to get along just fine.

Chuck and Amy Schumer Could Not Be Reached for Comment

Israeli driver fights off Palestinian lynch mob with gun [More]
Useful American Jewish idiots who support citizen disarmament are what my late friend Aaron Zelman called "bagel brained" and what I call Kapos for Kristallnacht.

A Stunning Admission

Bernie-backing rapper stuns liberals, explains why he’s an NRA member [More]
He stuns me too.

Can he really be so thick he doesn't see the disconnect?

About That Voter Disenfranchisement

...the inherent hypocrisy of these “voter suppression” arguments from the left. [More]
Between that and James Taylor concerts...
