The Longer Answer is Two Words and Starts with 'F'

Assault weapons ban expired 15 years ago — time to bring it back [More]

No. And if you do, I will not comply.

"Third Way" is just another mask for "commie bedwetters."

Your move, Robert and Nathan.

Feel free to react like Beto. Not that you'd be in the stack.

The Pyromaniac Loophole

No background checks, either!

Of course I'm not going to publicize who this is except to tell you "he" lives in a gray area.

Experimental replication shows knives manufactured from frozen human feces do not work [More]

Yeah, no sh**, Sherlock.

I'm sure there's an explanation for why coerced wealth transfers from the productive to these trough-feeders are somehow in all our best interests, but I'm also sure whatever it is will be a crock.

We're the Only Ones Sticky-Fingered Enough

Female NYPD sergeant, 37, who recently partied with the commissioner, is arrested for shoplifting $360 of designer clothing from a Macy's department store ... She was suspended from her $107,809-a-year role... [More]

I'd actually be OK with Islamic justice here.

We're the Only Ones Purging Enough

Phoenix's police union has a secret deal with the department to purge dirty cops' disciplinary records [More]

I'm surprised there aren't any mandated record retention statutes.  Are there?

More Precarious than We Know

Heller’s Precarious Situation [More]

There's a reason for that which nobody wants to admit. Most get mad, assume he's saying what he's not and dismiss it without thoroughly reading and understanding what he's advocating -- or even trying to.

I plan to do a longer piece soon to address that. I'd title it "The Plight of the Cassandra," but too many wouldn't get why.

Making Red Flags Too Expensive to Fly May Just be the Key

The court calls limiting state and U.S. Constitutional rights to own a gun a serious penalty that a jury should decide. [More]

It looks like a felony, smells like a felony, tastes like a felony... sure glad we didn't step in it!

The Constituent Protection Act of 2019

Democrats frown on targeting gang databases with 'red flag' laws [More]

Well, yeah.

Nobody actually thinks this is about crime control, do they?  How self-defeating would that be?

That'll Sure Foil Their Plans!

Conway: Mass shootings will not be 'the excuse for liberals and socialists' to 'confiscate' guns [More]

We'll confiscate 'em first!

Speaking of Trends...

Holden was a convicted felon, and background check laws prevented him from purchasing a firearm legally. So he came up with a workaround that federal authorities say is part of a statewide trend: He recruited a friend to purchase guns in a place with fewer gun restrictions than the Bay Area — in this case, Las Vegas, Nevada — and bring them back. [More]

With an average time-to-crime of 11.7 years, methinks the "pipeline" is clogged.

And what they're not saying, because that doesn't help them gin up the "OMG we need to grab guns everywhere!" hysteria, is that "not all firearms traced are used in crime," and that California, with its draconian disarmament diktats, was the source for 17,397 firearms in 2017, and "lax" Nevada was only the source for 1,554.

But hey, when you've got an agenda, nothing spooks the herd quite like anecdotes, right, Mercury "News"?

Survey SAYS...

Gallup: 83% Blame 'Failure of Mental Health System' for Contributing to Mass Shootings [More]

While it's true that most with disabilities do not pose a danger, the failure of the legal system to recognize "the law" contributes greatly.

I guess it's easier to just confiscate guns.
