Reply to All

I got an email from a WarOnGuns Correspondent encouraging me to write an article about how Donald Trump's inconsistent approach to RKBA might have contributed to his loss and also urging me to put up a Paypal widget in the sidebar. This started out as a one-one-one reply, but then I decided I'd post it here and send him the link.

About the closest I came to that was with a warning in advance: "2020 is Trump's to Blow with Gun Owners."

I'm not sure I'd be capable of finding credible data showing the number of gun owners who were discouraged from voting because of that. It would take somebody like John Lott to do a survey with credible metrics, otherwise, it would just be my mere opinion. As regulars here know, I'm big on substantiating links.

In re Paypal,  no sooner would I have it set it up than some lefty snitch would rat me out as a "hater" and get me demonetized. I also don't want readers feeling I am beholden to them or owe special access. I recall Vanderboegh, who was kind of preoccupied at the time, getting dressed down in comments over at SSI for neglecting to thank an indignant contributor who now viewed him as an ungrateful bastard, and I just don't need that.

The blog is like a midway sideshow to get people to read my articles and enter the big tent. The "circus owners" are the ones who pay me. Besides, in truth, I can't even get most readers to do the simple, near-effortless, and costless stuff that really would help me.

It is what it is. If I wanted to be popular, I'd be writing about the Kardashians or something.

Lest Ye Be Judged

Biden’s Adviser To Pick Federal Judges Was Accused of Physically Assaulting Children, Nudity [More]

So he threw the book at them and disrobed?

Vengeful exes say some nasty sh!+, especially when they can weaponize it to their legal advantage in divorce proceedings, and I wouldn't ordinarily treat such allegations as credible without some kind of corroborating evidence.  Except this isn't about what I think, it's about what opportunistic virtue-signaling Democrats say about #BelieveWomen -- that is, unless such accusations get in the way of their acquisition of money and power.

Yes, of course, they were induced, but if you think of the millions who will get through and vote Democrat, it's a small price to pay.

And Your Point Is...?

 Marjorie Taylor Greene mocked Parkland survivor in unearthed video: An 'idiot' who's trained 'like a dog' - "He only talks when he is scripted," Marjorie Taylor Greene said of David Hogg in a 2019 interview with a Georgia gun group. [More]

So what did she say that was wrong?

You aks me, she didn't go far enough.

Raising the Barr

 Conservative Defense of the Second Amendment Falls Short: Needs-Based Defense No Longer Sufficient to Preserve Citizens’ Right to Self-Defense [More]

True enough, and there's a wealth of good information here that will never find its way to the voting public. My guess is most gun owners will never read this, let alone understand and share it. We certainly know the DSM and the Keepers will do what they can to see it discouraged and buried.

Speaking of falling short, no argument will be sufficient as long as it ignores the Militia elephant in the room and fails to make that a central part of legal arguments. And ignoring the greatest threat of political and cultural terraforming via weaponized "immigration," as this does, ensures legislators and courts can ignore all arguments with impunity.

As long as we're on the subject of insufficiencies, did we ever get a retraction and apology from Barr for supporting Lautenberg?

Like I said: there's some good information here. Just not enough.
