My Kind of Razzmatazz
Fall Violence
Coming Soon, To a Cellblock Near You
Inmates at the St. Louis Justice Center rioted for the third time in less than four months Sunday night. The riot broke out around 8:45 p.m. on the third floor. Police said at least 60 inmates escaped from their cells and busted windows, set fire, and threw things to the ground from third-floor windows. [More]
So this is what total government control of a disarmed populace looks like!

Now THERE's a Statue I Could Tear Down!
The Real Racists
I don’t know how many times I’ve heard gun restrictionists claim that if African Americans owned firearms in large numbers, conservatives would quickly turn on the Second Amendment. Yet, all gun advocates I see cheer it on. It seems to me that others are doing the scaremongering. [More]
True enough.
That's why they also spook women out of having and mastering (mistressing?) the means of self-defense.
If they were honest, they'd admit they don't believe their core constituents are capable of assuming the rights and responsibilities of free people.
But they're not honest, are they?

JFK Assassination in 4K 360° VR
This Encyclopedia Brittanica interactive video is a few years old, but it's the first time I've seen it. [Watch]
I've always wondered if you set up a course with an elevated firing position and a target following the same track as the limo, how many of us would be able to reproduce Oswald's reputed results using the same rifle and ammunition. Anybody know if it's been tried?

Captain's Log
This commentary by Garcia reeks of a demand for agreement with Rob, with the tool of extortion being the appearance of lack of unity. [More]
I'm debating whether I want to sink into the Waive the Second cesspool again. Their trivialization, redirection, mischaracterization, and avoidance of the issues are just so full of crap and begging for evisceration...
Anybody think these characters are qualified to "reform" NRA?
Whose Rights Are They, Anyway?
Why Introducing DRM into 3D Printed Firearms Files Is A Bad Idea [More]
I confess I don't know enough about the subject to weigh in with an informed opinion. I guess my gut reaction is to favor intellectual property rights and to wonder why anyone thinks any transaction they make on the internet won't be discoverable, either through covert keyword or targeted monitoring or by subpoena to suppliers. But that's kneejerk and I can't say I've given it a lot of thought.
The other thing I haven't explored is ITAR data implications. Are there?
I'll try to get to comments every couple hours or so until bedtime, so feel free to educate me with pros and cons.

This Qualifies as a 'Mass Shooting,' Right?
4 shot, 3 dead in shootings in Detroit ...Police describe the suspect as 19 years old, heavy set and hair in dreadlocks. [More]
And why so coy about IDing the perp in Wilmington?
It's almost like if it doesn't advance a narrative it's best flushed down the memory hole...
If only they would disarm us right-wing extremists!
UPDATE - And then there's this:
The facts as of now show that this shooting was actually 3 separate incidents, two were connected but happened at different times. And one had nothing to do with the original shooting AT ALL!

Reaching Out Around to Our Friends Across the Aisle
“We want to send a message of tolerance and diversity,” Hutchinson said. [More]
I wonder if he thinks these guys are going to love him now...?
UPDATE:

And Leave the Driving to Us!
“Tens of thousands of immigrants caught illegally crossing the border and then released under the new leniency policy of President Joe Biden are now dispersing to four corners of the United States on buses, with some of the more moneyed ones taking passenger jets.”[More]
And yes, "they overwhelmingly appear to be the right age and deportment, where distributing as many as 30,000–the equivalent of 3 divisions–to Red States would be potentially catastrophic."
Good thing none of this has anything to do with that "single issue"!

Machine of Lies
America is right where the left wants it, mired in the quicksand of trying to distinguish the truth while new lies are invented every hour. [More]
Reality can only be denied for so long, and ultimately those doing it fall. The truth will out, eventually.
But the way things are going, it could be a very long time.
I'd Expect Nothing Less
Would it surprise you to learn that names have been added to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) that don’t belong there? [More]
No, no orders they would follow to curtail the freedom of their countrymen would surprise me.
I thought I'd already blogged on this, but I'll be damned if I can find it now...
I Guess They WERE Entitled...
We're the Only Ones Mental Enough
Amid outcry, states push mental health training for police [More]
I know the story speaks to something else, but that headline makes me think of NatLamp's Frank Rizzo...

Speaking of the 'Most Dangerous Threat'...
SPLC Predicts 'More Violence' Because Republicans Don't Buy the Left's Narrative on the Capitol Riot [More]
That's hardly the only gaslighting narrative. Curious, the lack of uprising if "we" were truly inclined to violence as a first resort...
Me, I wonder how many Republicans are planning on torching a cop car and looting a Target the second a "Not Guilty" verdict comes in for Chauvin... Or is that fact that none will further proof of their irredeemable racism?

Holy Toledo!
At around 2:30 a.m. last Monday, Chicago police officers were responding to a ShotSpotter alert of eight shots fired when they came upon Toledo and a 21-year-old man in an alley near 24th and Sawyer in Little Village. They say a foot pursuit ensued and during an "armed confrontation," an officer shot Toledo in the chest. [More]
There appear to be as many photos of the proto-banger as an adorable little boy as there are of St. Trayvon Martyr.
Unclear on the Concept
Our God-given right to defend ourselves is protected by the 2nd Amendment, which gives us the right to keep and bear arms. [More]
I received an email solicitation for donations from this guy and decided to check out what he knows about 2A. We shouldn't have to explain this to someone presuming to be a leader. He should be explaining it to us.
