A Nonbeliever

"I refuse to believe that this is a right and left debate. I refuse to believe that this is a Democrat and Republican issue." [Watch]

So you admit up front you're in denial yet you expect me to watch this 'til the end, and share it with everyone I know?

And the Hits Just Keep on Comin'

The Senate Judiciary Committee has released its latest version of legislation to render your self defense firearms worthless. [More]

That's the idea.

On the Line

New security measures at the Capitol make for long lines [More]

Who thinks discouraging constituents they don't want to have to put up with wasn't a major motivator?

Perhaps realizing many who wish to make their voices heard could now be blocked, VCDL could have designated proxies, each presenting names for the record of 10 or so gun owners who have chosen them to represent their interests?  That way, the brunt could take place in the armed rally outside, and not have to leave their guns locked in their cars?

UPDATE: Never mind.

So What Did She Have to Hide?

Former govt. agent admits illegally spying on Sharyl Attkisson, implicates govt. colleagues [More]

It does make "Who else?" a fair question to at least ask.

Doing His Best to Demotivate

'You Ran On America First': Laura Ingraham Grills Trump Over Support For Importing H-1B Foreign Labor [More]

Best not question Ivanka and Jared lest you be cast aside and disparaged like Ann Coulter, Laura. God forbid you ask him how they'll vote.

Besides, what are inconvenient truths when we have MAGA hats and mindless chants of "USA! USA!"?

And Don't Let the Door Hit You in the...

I imagine one of the principals will be posting a link to this soon. Until then, just enlarge these if you can't read them:

Παιδίκρατία

Twelve-year-old Gurden Campbell was one of the people in the crowd calling for lawmakers to act. [More] 

And that's all you need to know.

Except is "Pediatocracy" a new word?

Turning Blue

Dem Mark Kelly Continues To Dominate Sen. Martha McSally on Fundraising Front [More]

And whose fault is it for taking the fire out of our bellies?

Add Flake, McCain, and Ducey, and is it any wonder the consensus is that the elephant is dying from self-inflicted wounds?

Nothing Secedes Like Secession

Whereas, In a spirit of conciliation, the Legislature of West Virginia hereby extends an invitation to our fellow Virginians who wish to do so, to join us in our noble experiment of 156 years of separation from the government at Richmond... [More]

If not for totalitarians, it could be a win-win for everybody.

Secret Service changes tune: Brooklyn dog shot by agent WAS on leash [More]

We could tell you Agent Braveheart's name, but it's a secret.

Bad Apple?

Apple Said It Is Helping In The Pensacola Shooting Investigation, But It Won’t Unlock The Shooter’s iPhones. [More]

As a matter of who I fear most, I don't want the government having a free key, either. This may sound naive to those of you who understand such things, but couldn't an Apple tech be the one to unlock the phones under chain-of-custody supervision without giving the feds any encryption overrides, and then just turn over the court-ordered data?

By Popular Demand

To create a system where every vote counts equally, the Constitution must be amended. To do this, Congress should pass legislation reducing the size of Washington, D.C., to an area encompassing only a few core federal buildings and then admit the rest of the District’s 127 neighborhoods as states. These states — which could be added with a simple congressional majority — would add enough votes in Congress to ratify four amendments: (1) a transfer of the Senate’s power to a body that represents citizens equally; (2) an expansion of the House so that all citizens are represented in equal-sized districts; (3) a replacement of the Electoral College with a popular vote; and (4) a modification of the Constitution’s amendment process that would ensure future amendments are ratified by states representing most Americans.

From well-heeled Harvard academics, eh? And how did Pol Pot treat educated elite "new people" again...?

By All Means, Treat Her as an Equal

Man requests 'trial by combat' with Japanese swords to settle dispute with Iowa ex-wife [More]

To do otherwise would be sexist. That's why I'd oppose letting the male lawyer act as her champion.

Define 'a Lot'

“A lot of people are worried, especially the large Hasidic and Jewish community in Rockland County,” Melanson explained. “I have had rabbis come in. Some of the rabbis already have concealed carry” permits. [More]

I've yet to see something from the Jewish community unequivocally condemning the schmooish community for the destructive Marxist fools that they are, and that needs to happen before I'll give a damn

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Originalist' Is

How Scalia Botched Heller and Let the Left Undermine the 2nd Amendment [More]

I've pointed that out before.

I've also repeatedly pointed out that we can expect no truly fundamental change unless there's a credible "or else" attached to a demand. And that until our major gun groups get serious about the real intent of the Second Amendment, the erosion will continue.

Much Ado about What, Exactly?

A northern Michigan radio show host is helping to organize a push in Michigan’s 83 counties to adopt resolutions affirming Second Amendment gun ownership rights, but the reach or perceived overreach of those resolutions could vary by location.[More]

So most of them will be "full of sound and fury. Signifying nothing"?

What kind of tale is that again?

We're the 'Only Ones' Agreeing to Disagree Enough

Missouri sheriffs accuse Dept. of Corrections of catch and release; state says it`s following the law [More] 

They either can't catch 'em or they can't keep 'em. Meanwhile, Missouri gun-grabbers say disarming you is the solution.

We're the Only Ones Red-Flagged Enough

Morris is heard on body camera footage of the incident asking Jeremy Holmes to drop a knife he’s holding 36 times within two minutes. Jeremy Holmes is heard asking police to shoot him. When Morris began to holster his weapon so that he could stun Jeremy Holmes, Jeremy Holmes charged at him. Morris, along with Fort Collins Officer Erin Mast, fired their guns. [More]

This actually works in our favor and bolsters the evidence that such orders can be initiated by the vengeful and crazy. 

At least it would if they followed through and charged the mother.
