I remember when she was THE person credited for Florida being called “The Gunshine State,” but it looks like being Wayne’s Mama Bear has rubbed off the luster.
I hope those close to her are making sure that if she needs help she gets it.

Getting the Lead Out
Wayne Pacelle, the disgraced anti-hunting activist who previously resigned following sexual harassment allegations and a grifter who was once head of the anti-hunting group Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), is at it again. He’s now camouflaging himself as a hunting supporter, which couldn’t be farther from the truth. And he’s doing it to ban the use of traditional ammunition. He’s not pro-hunting. He’s not even for animal rights. He’s a Washington, D.C., beltway hack who took his show on the road. [More]

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night
If you give up on a state completely, that means all the money Bloomberg was dumping into it can go to a different one to do the same thing. Why even if it appears hopeless, you don’t quit or abandon anywhere. [More]
Having fought the fight in California for decades and seeing what the few who push back have to endure, I’ve always tried to remind snarky gun owners who live in safer climes (for now) that wishing for it to fall into the ocean is hardly constructive, and how the troops on the front lines are the ones who need our support the most.

So when Cato says “Not as many as some,” they’re pulling the numbers out of where?
The other deception they pull is what they compare the rate to treats the whole country like a homogenously whole, rather than a poll where mostly clean water is being polluted by identifiable local sources.
Is saying that going to get me in trouble? I sure hope so.

“Recivilized” would evoke condemnation in some quarters…

Truth Will Out
I guess the stats in the cities—this is kind of a funny thing, and I’m glad somebody brought this up—because the pro-gun side in this country is always trying to cut and dissect the demographics down. They’re like, okay, so there was a higher percentage in this city, or among this type of person, or among this demographic. [More]
We’re not “trying” to do anything but contextualize the propaganda with reality. It just happens to be the case, and since Tim brought up essentially gun-free countries like Japan, perhaps he could explain the comparable statistically insignificant “gun crime” rates and numbers by, say, millions of NRA, GOA, and SAF members, the most heavily armed and peaceable civilan population on the planet.

I’ll bet a similar effort could prove what a useless and costly bureaucratic boondoggle systems like ShotSpotter are. Or what an Orwellian intrusion the state co-opting Ring door cameras has turned out to be.

Shaking the Foundation
These bylaw changes removed the republic-like representation that members had on the Foundation board. Since these changes were never made public, what’s that say to the donor who thought their money would be looked after at the Foundation by mostly NRA directors? (At least one donor did ask the Foundation about bylaw changes and who serves as trustees on the Foundation board prior to this lawsuit was filed and that donor/NRA member was ignored.) [More]
If this in-your-face transparency obstruction doesn’t bother you, go ahead and support them. You know what they say.
They’re incoporated in DC, which does not require Bylaws to be filed.
IRS does, however, albeit “they may only represent the original version filed at that time,” meaning changes may not be accessible. I’d suggest filing one of these just in case, but this is John’s story, I don’t want to step on toes, and for all I know he did and I missed where he reported on that.
A Liberal Heroine
Cannon-Grant, who led the now-defunct nonprofit Violence in Boston, pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges last fall… Cannon-Grant was named Boston magazine’s “best social advocate justice” in 2020, the same year Boston Globe Magazine named her one of its Bostonians of the Year. [More]

It doesn’t matter what subversive outrage the Democrats rally behind, or how disjointed they appear to be with the Old Guard/young self-outed commie rift. A significant number of gun owners can’t be bothered to vote, especially in off-year elections.
There’s a blueprint to change that, but not much interest on the part of those who could benefit the most.
