Nevada Police Union Leader Prioritizes Bloomberg Disarmament Bill over Member Oaths


This McCann character seems as oblivious to the irony as he is to the rights of the people who ultimately pay for his position of privilege. [More]
A Democrat operative and Bloomberg stooge complains about "powerful special interests and big money campaign donors."

Obviously the Work of Racists

A 15-year-old Chicago girl was apparently sexually assaulted by five or six men or boys on Facebook Live, and none of the roughly 40 people who watched the live video reported the attack to police... [More]
Somehow I feel this is all my fault.

No description of the perps? How are we supposed to help authorities find them?

Wow, Google, not cool:


You Know You're Getting Up There WHEN...


I just received a cremation information solicitation from The Neptune Society.

I'm holding off because I may be eligible for federal benefits...

We're the Only Ones Color-Coordinated Enough

Amid a staffing shortage and regular budget deficits of $250 million, Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim McDonnell will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on cosmetic changes for his deputies’ uniforms ... Changing the color of the belt buckles from silver to gold will make all the little pieces of brass in the uniform, such as the tie clips, lapel pins and six-pointed star badges all the same color ... [More]
Well, then, as long as the "good cause" is better than, say, what they require to approve a concealed carry permit for a non-connected dirt person...

Say, how 'bout we feng shui HQ while we're at it...?

Hey Pancho! Hey Cisco!

Cisco Systems said that more than 300 models of switches it sells contain a critical vulnerability that allows the CIA to use a simple command to remotely execute malicious code that takes full control of the devices. There currently is no fix.  [More]

The Problem with Gun-Free Zones

Getting in and out, for one... [More]

I'd say "Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town," but many years ago I was compelled to run the same gauntlet in Compton.

A Crazy Idea

Prospect of guns in state mental hospitals means it’s time for lawmakers to act [More]
Because the inmates running The Kansas City Star editorial board asylum think they can keep them out with a "gun free zone" edict.

The Benchmark is 'Effective'?

With recent gun bust renewing calls for 'one-gun-a-month' limit in Va., a look at how effective the repealed law was [More]
And think of all the stranglings we'd prevent if we ignored rights and cut off hands as a precaution!

Who do you guys think you are, John Kasich?

The reality is, you can't point to one act of criminal violence being deterred. And that your goal is NO-guns-a-month.

Killing Two Birds with One Stone

They were sentenced to a year in prison with all but 30 days suspended, a $1000 fine and 3 years of unsupervised probation, each, but they are appealing the convictions based on rights to free speech under the First Amendment and a corollary recognized by Maryland’s constitution. [More]
So doesn't a sentence of that length disqualify them from gun ownership as "prohibited persons"?

Here's the story behind this, for context.

Wipe Out

Historically, the ATF has viewed wipes made of rubber or other disposable materials not to be silencer parts, making them replaceable by the end user. [More]
And God forbid they have any Chore Boy pads under the sink...


Your Tax Dollars at Work

The play “gUN COUNTRY”, which has received sponsorship from New Yorkers Against Gun Violence and the Brady Campaign To Stop Gun Violence is also receiving some additional support this year from American taxpayers, in the form of a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. [More]
Created by the Democrats, their current head was appointed by Obama, and "Republicans" have gone along with this unconstitutional abomination every damn step of the way.

Seeing who fights Trump's elimination proposal will be instructive.

The Range was There First


I am a member of Peacemaker and a resident of WV. In this morning’s Martinsburg Journal “Newspaper” this story was printed. Now fact number 1 according to the “newspaper” the range has been open since 2010. #2,The Goldstein’s bought their property in 2011. #3 The complaint wasn’t filed until August 2015. [More]
And here it is:
According to a Peacemakers supporter, the Goldsteins bought their Virginia property in December 2011, after the Peacemakers gun range had been established. The Goldsteins didn’t file a complaint until September 2015.
That means they either didn't do due diligence -- or they did and knew exactly what they were doing.
And it looks like their Insurance Company is claiming they're on their own.

UPDATE: The newspaper's information appears inaccurate. I was able to track property tax records online to 2010, which appears to be as far back as the Frederick County Treasurer's website goes.

Here's the filing --note you may have to try a few times, as it's on my One Drive account and multiple people trying to access it may crash it.

Bull Sessions

In a rare confluence of agreement, both the NRA and the Brady Campaign supported the project, seeing it as a way, on paper at least, to reduce violent crime that appeared to be spiraling out of control. The fact that it would require that officials of the federal government, namely the DOJ and its enforcement arm the BATFE, to “coordinate” with local law enforcement didn’t bother either the Brady bunch or the NRA. Said Wayne LaPierre, the NRA’s Executive Vice President: “By prosecuting [criminals violating gun laws, it] prevent[s] the drug dealer, the gang member, and the felon from committing the next crime … leave the good people alone and lock up the bad people and dramatically cut crime.” [More]
As a sidenote, I'm grateful to WarOnGuns Correspondent Carlos Perdue for making sure comments over at my piece aren't dominated by those who fail to grasp the basics.

Q&A


Anybody see anything here that gives you confidence Gorsuch groks RKBA? [More]

Feinstein pressing him now about banning "assault weapons"-- Gorsuch fell back on Heller, self-defense, "in common use" and "reasonable regulation," with no acknowlegment about milita utility or how he'd ultimately rule on that.

Arschloch


I find it curious all the comments at this writing seem to be by "progressives" supporting him.  I wonder if critics are deleted.* [More]

I always knew this "dual citizen" fraud was an oathbreaker, so finding out he was a vowbreaker on Skeletor was hardly unexpected.

Doesn't scheiße kopf here have a housekeeper to knock up or something?

* Update-- I found one buried, about the nanny.
