Stigmatizing Gun Owners Leads to ‘Cancellation’

 

"The endeavor to manage stigma is placed on all gun owners to some extent, in or out of events, even those who do not engage in illegal practices, because the stigma attached to gun culture is so pervasive.” [More]

Freedom-defending gun owners should be ashamed of themselves, insist those who find "pride" elsewhere.

And the Thing About a Shark is He’s Got Lifeless Eyes. Black Eyes. Like a Doll’s Eyes.

Families of Dayton shooting victims file suit against manufacturer of large-capacity magazines [More]

Especially after Remington lawyers signaled the sharks there was blood in the water and it's feeding frenzy time. Now they have singled out another victim before moving on to others.

You CAN Stop the Signal?

 It’s clear these new licensing requirements will be used to target websites hosting technical data and software. Now, the Biden-Harris administration can shutdown sites for not having govt issued license. And it appears the rule change will now give them the legal authority to ban 3D printed guns. [More]

Don't think of it as a totalitarian government that has unconstitutionally empowered itself to ban knowledge. Think of it as commonsense information safety laws.

Propaganda You Can Believe In

 NPR has announced a new ethics policy that allows its journalists to “participate in activities that advocate for ‘the freedom and dignity of human beings’ on both social media and in real life.” [More]

Anybody see a requirement for disclosures posted on the stories, or should the default assumption be "Hey, it's NPR"?

An Idea Whose Time Has Come

 Stanford University’s 'Community Board on Public Safety' unveiled a set of recommendations for campus police reform, which would see fewer armed officers responding to calls. [More]

I'd be fine if Stanford got rid of all of them.

I May Have a Solution

ADL says "Zuckerbucks" is anti-Semitic. [More]

Kind'a like criticizing Soros is...

Will calling them "Zuckerrubles" help?

It's Not About Guns

 A Gun Grab Is the Best Way to Enslave Americans [More]

And according to the grabbers, anyone opposed to that is selfish.

Another Insurrection!

 Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene accused of ‘trespassing’ at prison holding Capitol rioters [More]

Maybe an "unnamed officer" can shoot them!

I know Kevin Cramer would like that.

We're the Only Ones Settled Enough

 St. Louis County Police Chief Mary Barton is unexpectedly stepping down from her position. Her office is cleaned out. Barton tells the Board of Police Commissioners that she is officially retiring. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that she will be leaving her post after accepting a large settlement after filing a federal complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. She alleged discrimination. [More]

Why go into work when she extorted enough to move on to greener pastures?

Choosing Sides

GOP Senator Kevin Cramer Says He’s ‘Grateful’ for Capitol Cop Who Killed ‘Criminal’ Ashli Babbitt for ‘Not Complying’ - Cramer is also protecting Ashli Babbitt's killer. [More]

Who thinks the answer is "law and order Republicans"?

[Via bondmen]

We're the Only Ones Recovering Enough

 IMPD officers find fully automatic handgun stashed in diaper aisle at local store [More]

Actually, reading the story it says they couldn't find it, and then passively says "the gun was found" and they then "recovered" it.

New York, New York, It's a Wonderful Town


Investigator's now asking for the public's help identifying all four suspects. [Watch]

Sure. Got descriptions? 

And then there's the obligatory editorial add-on, accompanied by a practiced and perfected look of sincerity:

Thankfully, all of them are expected to survive.

Even the ones in gangs?

If only New York would step up the wealth transfers, ban all home builds, and impose microstamping, stuff like this wouldn't happen and they could get that Giffords grade up half a notch.

None Dare Call It Treason

 The bill allowing illegals to become Congressional Interns passed by a margin of 215-207 and has yet to be voted on by the Senate. [More]

Anybody got time to track down any Republicans that voted for it?

Three Percenter, Oath Keeper or Proud Boy?

 The unidentified sailor was a member of the ship’s crew and is accused of starting the July 12, 2020 blaze, the Navy said. [More]

Why not identify him?

With the direction Thoroughly Modern Milley is taking the military, it would be instructive to know if the suspect fits the narrative being broadcast about who the terrorists are.

Here's an Idea...
