Someone to Watch Over Me

Police were called to the property after someone called them to report a violation of the state’s stay-at-home orders... [More]
How do we know it wasn't Quade taking advantage of anonymous "snitching" for "legal" cover?

As can be done with gunsnitch programs, by the way...

Democrat Stimulus

Slipped into the plan is an amnesty for the nearly 700,000 to 800,000 DACA illegal aliens who currently reside in the United States...[More]
Why do you think she would do that?

Good thing this has nothing to do with that  "single issue." Right, "Saviors"?

And Let Them Eat Cake

Gov. Cuomo Tells Unemployed Americans To ‘Go Take A Job As An Essential Worker’ [More]
Elites born into dynasties sure are tone-deaf before they're loaded into tumbrils.

Two More to Go

Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, Thomas: Court precedent isn't sacred - Justices call for abandonment of 'mistaken' decisions [More]
So stare decisis über alles may not be what the Founders intended, particularly when it comes to the Bill of Rights?

Vanishing Act


Since yesterday, "News" has dropped around 2K and "All" around 8K.

Inconvenient Truths

He was banned from possessing a weapon for nine months and had to attend “counselling in anger management.” [More]
What have we learned?

That won't stop someone determined not to let a crisis go to waste.

"Authorities" certainly are being coy...

More here...

Still no word on the gun(s)...?

Amazing What You Can Accomplish by Limiting Choices

All of this enforced working at home will have a huge impact. It is completely culturally acceptable to work at home, where even three months people would have winced at that. [More]
So this is also an experiment in mass behavior modification?

And when a critical mass says "Enough"?

We'd Just as Soon Not Allow Our People to Choose for Themselves

U.S. Approves an At‐​Home COVID-19 Test—But Four States Ban It [More]
I have to wonder if the concern is really over safety and efficacy or if it's because knowing would cause more people to seek treatment from already overburdened systems. Might there be other concerns, political ones...?

Say it works and people in Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island die as a result of unnecessary delays, does anyone think outraged constituents will change party affiliations?

Anti-Gun Democrat Enabler of the Year

NSSF Honors Senator Shelley Moore Capito as Legislator of the Year [More]
Yeah?


Maybe Larry Keane would like to take the challenge...

Maybe Shelley would.

How much are her "good" votes on guns going to do us in 10 or so years?

So Basically Comparable to Flu Risks?



Here are the "data-driven approach" results.

They still haven't answered my question...

We're the Only Ones Having Discretion Enough


[More]
Good for them.  But before I jump on the "Yay, community heroes!" bandwagon, what kind of DISCRETION, DISCRETION, DISCRETION do they have when an edict they're enforcing runs afoul of "shall not be infringed"?

Trudeau’s Reaction to Nova Scotia Killings One of Jumping at ‘Opportunity’


“As gun control debate looms, no answers yet on what firearms were used in Nova Scotia mass killing,” the National Post reports. “The RCMP declined to say whether the guns were classified as prohibited, restricted or non-restricted and whether the shooter had a firearms possession license.” [More]
The blood dancers seem eager for atrocities to use as an excuse to impose more controls, which they're unfailingly ready to drop on the populace at a moment's notice -- whether they have anything to do with the latest incident or not.

Playing by EAR

EAR CONTROLS OVER PARTS, COMPONENTS, ACCESSORIES & ATTACHMENTS [More]
No, this has nothing to do with hearing, although if you're in the business, compliance will keep you from having to attend one.

Reeves & Dola, LLP, has updated its "Alerts" page. Being able to access the text ought to be a lot more useful to those of you who must abide by such things than the screenshots I've been taking.

Without a Custodian

Inmates Released From Jail Due To Coronavirus Fears Keep Getting Arrested Again [More]
What have we learned?

Only an idiot detached from reality would consider mercy from such animals to even be on the table. The more you beg and sob, the more doomed you become. The only thing they respond to is unhesitating overwhelming violence. If you think you can reason or plead you've already lost.

I wouldn't expect any "man" married to one of these to understand that. I wonder if it would finally dawn on Tuffy here before the rectal bleeding turned him off for good.

He Went to Jared

Jared Kushner pushes back on Trump’s immigration ban - An internal battle rages [More]
What battle?

Jared didn't get him elected. Repudiating what he stands for did.

As or those "temporary farmworkers," per the cite link in this post, not only isn't who comes in left to chance but "while many farms are ensuring workers remain a good distance apart at work, it's exceedingly common for migrant workers to bunk together in cramped living spaces, increasing the chance of an outbreak."

I'll pay an extra nickel for lettuce.

Consent of the Governed

States are more vulnerable than people think. They can collapse in an instant—when consent is withdrawn. [More]
Getting a replacement framework agreed to and invulnerable to violent opportunists is the tricky part.

About that Hope and Change...

Not only is Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari behind what several international observers are calling a “genocide” of Christians in his nation—but Barack Hussein Obama played a major role in the Muslim president’s rise to power: these two interconnected accusations are increasingly being made—not by “xenophobic” Americans but Nigerians themselves, including several leaders and officials.

Why Most are Democrats

Study: 56% of Liberal Women Under Age 30 Have Been Diagnosed as Mentally Ill [More]
Which doesn't give a pass to those over 30 or those who have not been diagnosed.
