Meanwhile, Over at the 'Fun Camps'...

I imagine in a full-blown national catastrophe, whether natural or man-made, being unarmed would be a prerequisite for admittance if you want your family to eat. [More]

Besides, anyone who balks at "multinational partners" is a hater who needs reeducation and/or a more intense intervention, and is certainly not to be trusted with guns. Wouldn't you agree?

It's Been Done

Divine Right of Philosopher Kings...

We opposed Hawaii’s argument that its laws against carrying firearms were long-standing, explaining that those laws existed when Hawaii was a monarchy where the reigning king or queen was sovereign — not as in the United States where the people are sovereign. [More]
Return to that from which the Founders rebelled. How very Opposite Day "progressive." How very despicable.

A Class Act

Pistol-Packing Teachers Becoming More Common in Arkansas [More]
I'd be for it if for no other reason than to give "progressives" fits.

The Art of the Deal?

Mexico's President AMLO Talks To Trump By Telephone And Continues To Speak Well Of Trump, Even When Questioned By Reporters [More]
Something's going on between these two.

Remittances are part of it, no doubt. Imagine the pressure build-up without them.

Put into Perspective


So thanks to "progressive" policies,  those who have lost out due to forced socioeconomic changes react with despair? Meanwhile, violent fast-breeder replacement populations are rising?  [More]

Guilty Until Proven Innocent

D.C. Council to have final vote on bill aimed at seizing guns from suspected abusers [More]
As long as due process is no longer a thing, maybe we'd be better off with a law to seize guns from government officials and their enforcers suspected of abusing rights.

Quis Custodiet ipsos Custodes?

Coast Guard serviceman kills his wife, 7-year-old child, then himself, officials say [More]
So... he'd gone through plenty of thorough background checks and routine performance evaluations?

Have We Got a Girl for You

Wissam, meet Sarah. You both hate America so you ought to get along just fine.


We're the Only Ones Play-Dating Enough


Richard Conte, 47, a police sergeant in the Monmouth County town, was among a nurse, firefighter, DPW worker and others who traveled to a meet-up point expecting to find a 14- or 15-year-old boy or girl...[More]
Definitely a Big Kid's Meal...

We're the Only Ones Seized Upon Enough

A southwest Missouri city has agreed to pay $1.2 million to settle a lawsuit filed by the family of an epileptic Missouri man who was fatally shot by police after suffering a seizure while driving. [More]
There are plenty of conditions that cause involuntary movements that could then be used to "clear of wrongdoing."

Have a Contemplative #BillOfRightsDay



I presume everyone knows what today signifies.

Today I've set time aside for family, enjoying the Blessings of Liberty and a few chores, so here's a piece from a couple years back I hope you find relevant.

UPDATE-- from our good friends the unAmerican oligarchs at Facebook:


UPDATE: Looks like they have been persuaded to reconsider. Now to figure out why it happened, or as I suspect, who complained to make it happen.

Obey Existing Intolerable Acts

Unfortunately, while the law may eventually be found unjust and overturned, today it is the law. Second Amendment Organization is a staunch advocate of Gun Rights, but those rights are defined by our laws. [More]
It depends upon what the meaning of the word "staunch" is?

Figures, though.

It really does.

Here's one "organization" I can scratch off my "support" list.

Conditional Approval


I agree.

As long as there are no strings attached.

Money Talks, Bulls**t Walks

The Weekly Standard, a conservative magazine critical of Trump, to shutter after 23 years [More]
So midterm "Republican" losses weren't a rejection of the agenda that got the president elected?

Yeah, keep betraying the base and playing into Democrat hands, "moderates."

As Seen on Drudge



Why, does he want it back?

Church Killer would have been a Threat Even if Air Force had Reported Him


While some are learning details of what a violent misfit the killer was from the IG report, there’s really not much new in it, at least for AmmoLand readers. Regulars will recall an exclusive from last May featuring the transcript of Kelley’s court-martial obtained after first filing a Freedom of Information Act request with the Air Force, and then filing a lawsuit to get them to comply. You’ll find many of the details contained in this new report were made public over half-a-year ago. [More]
Who thinks submitting required reports would have defused this ticking time bomb?

We're the Only Ones Safening Enough

“The seizure of two assault rifles, a tactical shotgun and 10 handguns, along with over 110,000 decks of heroin and more than 1,000 grams of cocaine, means that our streets are safer as a result of these arrests,” Ambrose said. [More]
How much safer, Director Ambrose?

Safe enough for you and your department to walk down without guns, like you demand and enforce against those not part of your elite club?
