Group seeks end to gun ban in Connecticut parks and forests

While it’s not part of the recommended letter, it wouldn’t hurt -- just to help work up the motivation to send one -- to understand that Gov. Malloy and his family have no need to hike through state forests unprotected, not with “a security detail made up more than 12 State Troopers” that racked up $1.1 million in taxpayer-funded overtime. [More]
This evening’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes how typical it is of “progressives” to pretend the laws of nature and the relationships between predator and prey are suspended in forests, of all places.

Tell me this doesn't give new meaning to the term "Officer Friendly"... [More]

And still the nagging question of protocol remains...

Whew. Thank goodness no one was a "victim of gun violence"! [More]

I'm thinking that ought to have a "TM" after it or something...

Discovery Jumps on the Propaganda Junk Science Bandwagon

Madenci said he didn’t have enough data to determine whether guns in specific homes were responsible for these deaths or injuries... [More]
Gee, and which households might those be?

Perhaps the ones where"gun possession" might be a more honest description than "gun ownership"...?

Yeah, right, lump yours and mine in with crack houses and gangbanger cribs and then judge us all as one big homogeneous demographic.

The establishment popular "science" community is just another part of the propaganda machine.

The Wrong People Are Being Caged

The threat has become so ominous the local school district has decided to place wolf shelters (kid cages) at school bus stops to protect school children from wolves while they wait for the bus or parents. [More]
Hey, what ever happened to "home rule" and wouldn't it be grand entertainment to drop urban environmentalcase fanatics insisting on this destructive foolishness off in the midst of the pack so they could show us how to truly become one with nature?

This is the "progressive" solution? Cage humans?

Duct Tape for Raleigh

Mayor McFarlane in a sticky situation
Grudgingly removing only some of Raleigh's illegal signs prohibiting lawful concealed carry is akin to citizens agreeing to obey Raleigh's noise ordinance only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. What part of the word 'illegal' does Raleigh not understand? [More]

More proof that if it can't be fixed with duct tape, it can't be fixed.

Duality

What I don't get is "dual citizenship"--who do they owe primary loyalty to? [More]

No one puts a gun to the head of people who want to be Americans to make them take this oath:
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the armed forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.
I don't get why it is in our interest to allow that to be a nod and a wink, and then formally recognize we don't really mean it

Ain't that right, Arnhole?

We're the Only Ones Unjustified Enough

Adam Collins, a spokesman for the Police Department, says it would be out of the question to resell the guns. "Any small financial gain would not justify being part of putting more firearms out on the streets," he told me. [More]
Can you imagine being Adam Collins? Because I can't. It's like an alien way of thinking I'm not hard-wired to be able to grok.

"Conservative Leaders"

Well, that's what Bloomberg wants us to think. [More]

Oh, and Mario will now settle for the same incremental bite-sized chunks strategy the antis use on guns when they can't get everything swallowed at once, so he must be our pal now, too.

Gosh, how historic!

So everybody --except for a few obstructionist wacko birds-- is in agreement. What do you think is going on here, Professor Q?
