Titles of Nobility

Harry and Meghan 'will beg Donald Trump for secret service protection' after LA move [More]

Well, there's "royalty" and there are "commoners." It's right there in the Constitution, isn't it?

Remember what Mr. Paine told us?

Ah, good, he told them to pound sand.

Harry ain't the brightest bleeder from Buckingham, is he?

Wallis Simpso... uh... Meghan is counting on that.

Playing TAPS for the Constitution

Don’t Exploit the COVID-19 Emergency to Push the Anti-Gun TAPS Act [More]

More pushback against sterile bee queen Amy Swearer and her Conservative, Inc. drones.

I just received more links than I know what to do with, so with the caveat that I may or may nor have even clicked on some of these,  let alone read them to see if I'm 100% with 'em, here ya go:

• Firearms Policy Conference HR 838
• Firearms Policy Conference TAPS
• Tenth Amendment Center
• Big League Politics
• GOA
• Crime Prevention Resource Center
• The Federalist Society
• The National Interest
• Ricochet

And you could always just go here and here...

Cowboying Up

Texas Cities and Counties Can't Close Gun Stores as Part of Coronavirus Closures - So opines the Texas AG, interpreting Texas state statutes (and not needing to consider the Second Amendment). [More]

What about these guys?

Holder That Thought

VOTE AT HOME will allow more people to vote... [More]

Never mind which people...

You can tell from comments, if nothing else, this f***er will be forever associated with Gunwalker deaths.

We're the Only Ones On Again, Off Again Enough

Los Angeles Sheriff Reverses Course AGAIN!?, Orders Gun Stores to Close to the Public [More]

If he were obstructing another civil right, the Feds would arrest him.

I guess we get to see how serious they are about what's critical.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Piers Morgan Paradise

Police should fire BATON ROUNDS at coronavirus curfew breakers says ex-police chief [More]

Just what those whose subversion made this inevitable need-- more power to employ violence against a victim pool of their creation.

The Other White Meat

The elephant is dead. Capitalism is gone, the republic is gone. What we have now is an opportunity to feed off of the dead elephant, to stockpile as much as we can, to distance ourselves from each other and prepare for the ultimate battle for survival.  [More]

The Republic: It's what's for dinner. At least per TL Davis.

Call me a cockeyed optimist, I'm not sure we're there yet. In any case, I'm not ready to abandon the remarkable system bequeathed us by the Founders even if those who rule appear to be, if most they rule are oblivious to what they've allowed themselves to be swindled out of, and if many who won't be ruled have concluded it's "Game over."

Come back to me when the lights go out.

The Hole Truth

What became clear during the Kavanaugh hearing is that Ford's story had holes in it. [More]

So does Reade's.

More Evil Right-Wingers

Wilson was linked to the neo-Nazi groups National Socialist Movement (NSM)... [More]

And that is what's being presented as another "one of us"...?

Maybe they're referring to the member of the central government's standing army...?

The FBI sure seems to be getting even dickier these days. Does anybody else get the feeling this Wray guy's first loyalty may not be to his oath?

That Was Uncalled For

[More]

Except ad hominem is the logical fallacy resort of those trying to gin up mob support by hurling insults. Because Constitutionally speaking, Massie was right, and those manipulated to scream against a recorded vote because it's "their guy" doing it know not what they enable.

But hey, it's not like a voice vote has ever come back to bite us in the ass before, right, gun owners?

UPDATE:

John Lott writes a much-needed "In Defense of Congressman Thomas Massie."

Man in coronavirus quarantine runs into street naked before biting woman to death [More]

Looks like I gotta add "teeth" to the list...

Besides, nobody except trained enforcers needs assault canines, designed only to rip through flesh...

Synchronicity

President Trump’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has revised its guidance of critical infrastructure to include the firearms industry as part of the Essential Critical Infrastructure. This revision comes shortly after Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners of California (GOC) sent a letter to the administration urging inclusion of the firearms industry. [More]

[More]

And it also comes a bit over a week after this:

The president doesn’t shy away from issuing executive actions on guns when they serve his purposes and he is depending on gun owners to be reelected in November. It would be more than appropriate if he ordered Homeland Security to recognize the need of the people to lawfully obtain guns during national emergencies to the point that a disruption in supply “would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination thereof.”

Do it, Mr. President.

Unless it's all been just words and the Second Amendment is now officially deemed “non-essential.”

Happy Birthday, Mommy

My Mother is 96 today.

She still swims laps and walks a couple miles most days.

Here's the card I made her, front and inside:

For the record, she was gentle and loving in spite of my many provocations. And Dad didn't have to raise a hand because just the look and the low-key but dead-serious tone, along with assured and consistent commensurate consequences, were always enough to make me rethink if I really wanted to keep pushing.

Unqualified Susceptibility

The University of Michigan’s refusal to recognize an accused student’s “clearly established due process rights” led a federal judge to deny its administrators “qualified immunity” in the student’s lawsuit. [More]

I wouldn't mind seeing more of that.
