I Scream for Ice Cream

SCORES OF FARM WORKERS, ACTIVISTS MARCH ON BEN & JERRY'S [More]
I love when leftists collide!

In case you didn't know (and have been unwittingly giving them aid and comfort):
Then there’s Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream, a homegrown experiment in corporate social(ist) engineering that has supported a variety of left-leaning causes, including funding gun control through sales of their “Peace Pops” bars. It figures— with heart disease the leading cause of death in this country, you wouldn’t expect an ice cream company to focus on that threat. They are so hostile to guns they seemingly can’t even acknowledge the word— when new CEO Perry Odak came on board from “U.S. Repeating Arms Co. (Winchester) and Browning,” their press release described it as “a manufacturer of outdoor and recreation sporting goods.” And after Ben & Jerry’s railed against the chemical dioxin as “one of the most toxic substances in our environment today,” JunkScience.com performed an analysis of their “World’s Best Vanilla” ice cream, concluding it contained 200 times the EPA’s standard daily dose (in reality not a hazardous level, but certainly an example of the hysteria they promote, as well as proving them profoundly hypocritical). 
I'm all for siccing PETA on them for greedy exploitation of and brutal conditions inflicted on animal slave labor.

The First Resort

Islamic extremists kill 5 people at Mali resort [More]
But...but...but...

Gunkapo

But as a gun owner and outdoorsman, I also have no concerns with expanded background checks or limits on the kinds of firearms an individual can own. Civilians don’t need military-style assault rifles, which are nothing but tools for killing people. Civilians don’t need easier access to silencers or armor-piercing bullets, either... [More]
I have more contempt for PolitiFudds than I do for MILMs.

We're Number One


[More]
And four...

It's still nothing compared to mainstream exposure for gun-grabbers.

I can't overemphasize the importance to getting the word out by sharing links. If you are a regular here and if you get value from the work, that's the only "donation" I ask for.

Do the Math


Something must be done!

A Fail of One City

[More]
Because nothing quite says "Peace" like stirring up a mob to "snuff out" someone you don't like, right Snuffy?

To give you an inkling of how dense his followers must be, the guy in the framed photo was shot as a matter of routine by the "Only Ones" Snuffy and they want to have guns.

By the way, at the end of "A Tale of Two Cities," didn't the good guy die and the totalitarian state win?

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

Build a Better Mousetrap

...and the world will beat a path to your door? [More]

I wonder if anyone will try to buy him out.

We're the Only Ones Fearful Enough

Acknowledging that they have a weapon, they said, can open them up to violence from police, who can then claim they feared for their lives simply because of the presence of a gun, even a legal one. [More]
"Professional" fear and ignorance aren't limited by the race being encountered. For instance, here in Ohio, that, along with "Only One" arrogance, is something the ever-fraudulent Mike DeSwine showed deliberate indifference to, before politics convinced him he needed to at least make some noises.

The Gold Standard

[I] Carry Guard is unwilling to provide training for two extremely common weapons, revolvers and Browning pattern pistols, then, by definition, it can’t be ‘the Gold Standard.’ [More]
Add questionable business practices into the mix along with forehead-slapping political ratings that ignore the single biggest threat to 2A, and sorry, but Fairfax doesn't  exactly represent a gold standard to me for a lot of things.

A Good Chance?

If the Senate does not pass HB746 THIS WEEK, there is a good chance it won't go anywhere this year.  [More]
If that happens, what's the plan?

Is there a corresponding good chance anyone responsible will suffer consequences, or are those reserved for gun owners?

Murder Capitol of Planet Earth

I thought I remembered this from a few years back, but if I did blog it I can't readily find it now.  Anyway, it's been called to my attention again, and it wouldn't hurt to revisit -- and in the case of many -- visit it. [Watch]

We're the Proto-Only Ones Voluntary Enough

Three teenagers in a program for those who may want to become officers stole three Los Angeles Police Department vehicles and went on patrol around the city before leading authorities on wild pursuits that ended with crashes, Chief Charlie Beck said. The trio — two boys and a girl ages 15, 16 and 17 — "gamed the system" and used a vacationing sergeant's name to sign out stun guns and radios and drive the cars right out of a stationhouse parking lot, Beck said. Police are investigating whether the teens impersonated officers and pulled over drivers. [More]
"Teens" again, eh? I don;t suppose it's in the public's interest to know who the menaces to society living among them are?

And that total boob Beck wants to control everyone not under his"command."

Coming Soon to a Caliphate Near You

The clans — some of which migrated to Germany during Lebanon's 1975-1990 civil war and have grown to thousands of members — now control large swathes of German cities and towns — areas that are effectively lawless and which German police increasingly fear to approach. [More]
Why would any invader respect those who surrendered (giddily and otherwise) rather than fought? And arent "the authorities" those in control?

Oh, Those Wacky Paranoid 'Preppers'...


What makes them think those they've hired to save them won't instead decide to move themselves and their own families into the big house...? [More]

We're the Only Ones Locking Down Enough

Police issued a lockdown of homes and cellphone usage in an Oakley neighborhood Saturday, in an apparent attempt to issue an arrest warrant on a suspect... [More]
Talk about Opposite Day "progressive" security of a free state! They can not only paralyze you, they can render you deaf, mute and blind.

Self-Contradicting

Because like Mr. Emerson said, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." Right? [More]

A Feature, Not a Bug

"These courageous, individual priests of the Society of Jesus are NOT saying that all Muslims are murderers," Snyder stipulated.  "They are noting that the foundational documents of Islam, such as the Koran, approve of and even recommend the murder of non-Muslims in the promulgation of Islam. [More]
But don't worry. Those enabling the cultural terraforming assure us they're being rigorous, although come to think of it, they never really say on whose behalf...

Get 'em While They're Young

While police departments in Oakland and San Francisco have seen success by offering cash in exchange for firearms, one Bay Area school administrator found a new opportunity to reduce gun deaths. [More]
As stupid as this is, my primary criticism is of the "news reporter" who accepted this utter crap at face value and then amplified it.

Yo, Andrew Dalton: Are you stupid, lazy, an enthusiastic apparatchik or all three?

Sorry, but anything from San Francisco with "Fist" in its name tells me to expect the worst.

The Takeaway

Amanda Marcotte and the effete handwringers at Salon would rather see you dead than armed, particularly if you're a woman. And they'll make up all kinds of weird Opposite Day "progressive" sh** to "persuade" the weak-minded and the comfortably ignorant. [More]

Consider the source.

Say, I wonder how they'd have fared against these guys?

And I'm Proud to be an American Where at Least I Know I'm Free

New Senate bill empowers feds to seize everything you own. .. Sponsored by Sens. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I. ... [More]
So this is one they mean by "the spirit of bipartisanship"?

Securing the blessings of liberty one hopelessly outmatched victim at a time.

It's a big club and you, most certainly, ain't in it.

Looks Like Rain

From the "Team Trump/Pence" Week 21 "Love of Country" email:
We all agree that we are blessed to be Americans, that our children deserve to grow up in a nation of safety and peace, and that we are strongest when we are unified, working together for the common good. We remain united as we work together for a safer America. We may have our differences, but we do well, in times like these, to remember that everyone who serves in our nation’s capital is here because, above all, they love our country. We pray for Congressman Scalise, his family, and all those affected by this week's inexplicable assault to democracy.
