FBI Director Candidate Wray’s Adopting Language of Left on Guns Merits Further Scrutiny


“I wouldn’t rule out any commonsense gun reform legislation without having a chance to review it,” Wray finally admitted. “I would have to review it and make an assessment based on the circumstances. But I can commit to you that being tough on gun violence is something that I would want to be as director of the FBI.” [More]
Using the same language as interrogater Richard Blumenthal raises a flag.

Senate Must Adopt Paul’s Gun Amendment on Health Care Bill

1) Insurers should not be allowed to ask about gun ownership, or feed that information into a federal database, or discriminate or deny insurance to gun owners;  2) Federal mandates, that doctors keep digital records in a federal health database, cannot be used to force doctors to compile a federal health database; and,3) The ATF must not be allowed to troll the federal health database for names that it could submit to the NICS list. [More]

What if part of the motivation is in response to the Trump ICE deportation order that basically limits the priority for deportation to those Illegals who have been convicted of felonies. [More]
That makes the most sense. I missed it completely and should have actually thought of it first.

We're the Only Ones Incorrect Enough

During that period, Missouri Department of Corrections employees failed to properly check on the two inmates, who were locked alone together in one of the more restricted areas of the prison. Moreover, the state workers falsified logs and failed to follow procedures aimed at protecting inmates from other prisoners. [More]
Defy disarmament diktats and that could be you having to fend off insatiable beasts. And you'd better believe the appropriately-named "screws" exploit the situation as a coercion tool.

Remember that the next time you hear Wayne advocate for enforcing existing Intolerable Acts.

Dana Loesch’s Critics Curiously Not Outraged by George Takei’s Clenched Fist

The feigned outrage doesn’t seem to extend to the fist representing One Pulse for America. That’s a new effort reportedly founded by George Takei of Star Trek and Jonah Falcon fame (you probably don’t want to look that last affiliation up). He evidently started the group as a way to respond to the murderous actions of a reportedly sexually-conflicted Islamist extremist who shot up a “gun-free” gay nightclub. So naturally his number one target is the NRA. [More]
