We're the Only Ones Once Bitten Twice Shy Enough

Say, how would you like a nice Hawaiian Punch? [More]

He's lucky that's all it was.

Latest Holder court maneuver continues DOJ Fast and Furious stonewalling

Since the story broke and unfolded, those with hopes and expectations that truth and justice would prevail have been answered with disappointment, and the cynical realization that the matter will continue to be dragged on to where a full accounting of what happened -- and who knew and ordered what -- will probably be relegated to history. That’s provided the victors are interested in writing it. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes those in power who understand that the truth shall set us free have a vested interest in making sure we never learn it.

Everytown Math

It doesn't add up. [More]

How disillusioning. If we can't trust Bloombergian gun-grabbers, rights thieves and liars, who can we trust?

Trek's Trek

2,000 Miles for the Brian Terry Foundation [More]
I checked 'em out on Guidestar. Here's what they had to say about themselves on their Form 990:
They look good to me.


Guns in Schools

And grenade launchers, and MRAPs and... [More]

S'OK though, because they're filled with teddy bears, which raises a whole 'nother set of questions about entrenched bureaucrats gone mad squandering tax plunder while the Prozis keep screaming they need more.

Grudging, My @$$

When this blows up, will your rep share responsibility? [More]

And how does he or she stand on background checks for you?

A Different Kind of Democrat?

Point. [More

RINO counterpoint.

We understand the Party needs to place moles like Grimes in certain regions because in-your-face Prozis wouldn't stand a chance.  And I see how some may be compelled to hold their noses and vote for McConnell out of a sense of no other viable option, but how anyone could build up a fire in their belly -- let alone feel good about it -- is beyond me.

Yo, Alison: It ain't about how good a shot you are.  I'm sure Lon Horiuchi would win if I tried to compete against him with a rifle. But the main difference between us would be the shots we would refuse to take.

Payback

The robber’s name has not been released. However, Seth said the man’s brother came to the store Saturday morning and threatened to take revenge by murdering the family. [More]
Then I'd say it's time to release it, so where he and his came from can be pinpointed. I just did a quick search and don't see any news accounts IDing the creep.  Public safety demands people know where snake pits are.

More to the point, if this ever happened to me, my instinct would be to believe it, to fear for my life and the lives of those I love, and to render the brother incapable of carrying through with his evil threat on the spot.

If It's Broke, Don't Fix It

I guess, if you have no other choice... [Watch]

Rise and Fall of the Boardwalk Empire

So let me get this straight:  The whole damn place is rotting out from under their feet and their solution is to cause further economic distress by banning businesses from selling toy guns that enough customers want to keep them stocked on the shelves? [More]

Have I used up today's "progressives" and Opposite Day quota yet?

I have a feeling Nucky would be teaching some bureaucrats the error of their ways.

[Via Florida Guy]

WWJD?

I don't think applying for a job where you know their business schedules conflict with your faith choices, and then running to the Feds to sue, is very "Christian". [More]

And I have my doubts about anyone who would do such an evil thing.

Get another damn job, and stop bringing in Caesar's men with spears to force your will on others. I don't often get "religious" here, but it seems the whole point of salvation is you need to make the choice to ask for it yourself.

And it also seems "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion" ought to have some legal applicability here.

Noting the truism that entrenched EEOC bureaucrats are pushing this abomination, and that for "progressives," every day is Opposite Day, I'm not seeing this being the Lord's work at all.

More on Moron Art Kap(o)lan

Even if we move toward tighter gun control laws and seek to reduce access to automatic weapons and ammo, which I favor, we have so many guns in circulation that these efforts are too little, too late. Will deaths fall if killers are not armed as if for combat with automatic weapons and full body armor? Yes. But, will ready access to automated weapons, guns and this kind of equipment disappear any time soon in America?[More]
We talked about this lump yesterday. How very Opposite Day "progressive," that someone who is such a demonstrably ignorant liar is selected to head an establishment "medical ethics" division.

(And yes, I know he spells his name with a "C." I don't really need to explain here, do I?)

Gray Lady Meets The Wolfman


The transformation is about as clumsily transparent as watching Lon Chaney Jr. lap-dissolving, but kudos to Mr. Hardy for pointing it out. [More]

A Match Made in Hell

DOJ and Media Matters colluded...? [More]

Gee whiz, really?

And it involved "specious and frivolous" Tracy Schmaler and...well, what would you call these guys...?

An Accurate Account

Anti-gun Group Wants to Ban Rifles "Too Accurate" for Civilians [More]
Leave it to fraudulent "gun safety" cultists to declare it's better for us all if a rifle hits something besides what it's aimed at. The Opposite Day is strong in these "progressives."

Thing is, I can hardly be sympathetic to Tracking Point, seeing the way they're evidently wallowing with the swine in the Prozi pen. I say "evidently" because that's what everything points to, and they've avoided a request for clarification of intent, so scrooum.


Bullet Points

  • Kurt makes some, in re the Brady lawsuit against online ammo retailers. 
  • Meanwhile, Mr. Hardy raises some legal points of order.
  • I so hope they get slapped with sanctions and countersuits for frivolous/nuisance actions.

This Day in History: September 18

The matter of the exchange of Lord Cornwallis was taken up this morning, Congress having received the necessary papers from Dr Franklin & Colo. Laurens, It is committed. [More]
