Blunder Woman

Texas Theater's Women-Only 'Wonder Woman' Screening Is Infuriating Fragile Men [More]
There's a difference between being infuriated and pointing out  hypocrisy. As for being fragile, coming from trivial "progressives" self-identifying as "too fab," that's rich.

As long as sex is a legitimate factor in voluntary commercial association, you have to wonder how fragile they'd be if, say, a Christian baker refused to produce a "gay wedding" cake.

In re the "exclusive" screening, I'd liked to have seen some monkeywrenching male patrons tell the theater they self-identify as women and dare them to refuse admittance. Now that it's over, there's nothing to stop a bunch of guys from doing the same thing though, with the restrooms at Alamo Drafthouse.  En masse.

And while we're at it, let's see how fragile the little Too Fab bitches are over this:



Poll Position

Hi! We're researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We are conducting a study to better understand audience evaluations of media coverage of gun regulations and gun rights. [More]
I got this link as an off-topic comment to an earlier post, and didn't OK it because of the "Comment House Rules" (they're in the sidebar). Please send tips via email (dcodrea@hotmail.com) or via the Contact Form, also in the sidebar.

I'm not sure how the CSGV-affiliated "study" team  hopes to have any kind of reliable results, because they gotta know RKBA advocates are gonna jump in. Maybe they wanted it to be kept secret?

We're the Only Ones Indecent Enough

DeKalb sheriff suspends himself after indecency arrest [More]
If he beats the rap he ought to sue the department!

MarkZism

"We should explore ideas like universal basic income..." [More]
And from whom will the wealth be transferred? I don't suppose participation on the producing end will be optional? Or that strings will be attached to the receivers?

While it might be tempting to conclude this Opposite Day "progressive" multibillionaire does not understand basic economics, I'd argue that he does, and more importantly, that he understands control.

As for his self-confessed guilt for all his "luck," that's probably because he realizes everything he offers lacks actual value.

The Silent Plague

That's how racists think of you, mongrels. [More]

"Plague."  That's even lower than "vermin."

Anybody still think "it" could never happen here?

We're the Only Ones Out in Force Enough

Chicago Police say they will put an extra 1,000 officers on the street each day during the Memorial Day weekend, which has become one of the deadliest times of the year in the city. [More]
So will this be an excuse for union overtime (ka-CHING!) or are they going to flood the streets with out-of-condition/training desk jockeys, as likely to panic as anything if they get in over their comfort levels?

And talk about "pizza gate"!

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

Any bets on numbers?

Speaking of Assaulting Women...

All the best Democrat donor thugs do... [More]

No wonder they don't want women armed.

I wonder if Hillary, Holt, Obama and the party will give the money back?

Good News for All You 'Progressive' Gals!

Denver Decriminalizes DOMESTIC VIOLENCE To Protect Criminal Immigrants [More]
Isn't that tolerant and inclusive, to honor cultural traditions like that?

Hey, will it apply to all? Can we use it to overturn the Lautenberg gun ban?

The Right Snake

Ex-TSA chief John Pistole in talks for top FBI job: report [More]
Why does Proverbs 23:32 suddenly come to mind...?

We're the Only Ones Transitioning Enough

A former police officer is accused of disguising herself as a man to rob a bank in Northern California. [More]
But the main point is, that's not just a microaggression, that's appropriation!

[Via Rough and Ready]

Because Nazis Don't Deserve Free Speech!

Rope-selling "capitalist" Cars.com evidently agrees with Antifa, at least on that point. On ownership of property not so much. [More]

And oh, look: The good nachbars over at USAA would rather side with Media Matters, too.

The Bush Administration Used to Fight for Gun Control, Too

Trump lawyers ask Supreme Court to reject 2nd Amendment claim by men who lost gun rights over nonviolent crimes [More]
Remember Ted Olson?

Mr. Quigley would like to say a few words.

New York ‘Common Sense’ Gun Bill Could Get People Killed

"The prohibition would apply to pistols or revolvers manufactured twelve or more months after the effective date of the bill. Design features could include the capacity to adjust the trigger resistance of the gun to at least a ten pound pull, the capacity to alter the firing mechanism so- that an average five year old child’s hand would be too small to operate the gun, or the capacity to require a series of multiple motions in order to fire the gun." [More]
Because nothing says "common sense gun safety" like mandatory accuracy impediments!

Good News


“LIES OF OMISSION” PRERELEASE SCREENING A SUCCESS [More]
Glad to see things went well in spite of the mishap.

An Opposite Day 'Progressive' Open Mind

I know the NRA’s reputation, but I went to the convention with an open mind, prepared to have my stereotypical notions challenged... [More]
You sure can't tell from all the B.S. talking point regurgitation that comes after that claim.

A Poisonous Snake of the Highest Order

This was not a violation of protocol, it was tactical. [More]
Pournelle admits this has not been verified, but as to the snake charge, I have reason to believe it.  

Funny, who Comey finds common ground with...

Taking a Leak


Any bets the same one compromising intelligence operations are also involved in sabotaging the administration? [More]

[Via Michael G]

All Kinds of Contortions


The statistical gymnastics to get to these numbers are more than just mathematically negligent. They are traitorous. [More]
What?

You mean people like me aren't terrorists?

But ... but... but Teen Vogue...

What do I do with the robe?  Who will tell Troian? And is the Bloomberg propagandist contest still on?

Protections Vastly Different in Competing Knife Bills


The House and Senate versions appear to advocate for the same goals, with the exception of the repeal of the Federal Switchblade Act in the House version. But a breakdown of details shows protections being offered are not equal... [More]
If there's one thing recent events should have taught us it's that not resolving legislative differences between industry and owner interests hurts all.
