Notes from the Resistance
“That individual is still out there,” Moscow Police Chief James Fry said during a news conference Wednesday. “We cannot say there is no threat to the community.” [More]
That’s OK, Chief. We didn’t believe you when you said there wasn’t one.
Let’s hope these guys are stepping up and offering training.

Maryland U.S. attorney announces new push to tackle crush of gun cases [More]
What do you mean, “disproportionate“…?

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Delaware’s recently-adopted ban on so-called “assault weapons” on the grounds the legislation—known as House Bill 450—violates the Second Amendment. [More]
Show me a “commonsense gun safety” bill that doesn’t.
President Xi humiliates Trudeau as he is caught on camera tearing strips off Canadian PM… [More]
To paraphrase Rhett Butler, he should be humiliated and often, and by someone who knows how.
Actually, it looks more like the boss dressing an employee down in front of the others.
Today, the Attorney General sent a cease-and-desist letter to Sky Tactical Supply, warning the company that it is potentially committing criminal offenses by selling the FIFY in California, and is misleading California consumers about their criminal liability if they buy the product. [More]
This stuff makes my head hurt.
Is Michelle Obama Running for Office? [More]
Unless something shockingly heinous is secretly in her background, I have long thought she’d be unbeatable.
As for the “rumor” from Barack’s half-brother, my guess is with today’s electorate, it would work in her favor if true and anyone criticizing her for it would be smeared as a hater.
A Portland “anti-fascist” activist has been found not guilty of being a fascist by roughing up a journalist and stealing his phone because he didn’t like what the reporter said about his Antifa friends. After the Portland judge let off the notorious Portland Antifa attacker, he delivered a lecture to the victim, reporter Andy Ngo. [More]
Sometimes, you can judge a book by its cover.

Donald Trump should not get free airtime on CNN and other news networks. Sign this petition immediately. [More]
You can’t have free elections with anyone who’s not a doctrinaire communist running because “our democracy” relies on there only being one side!
And I put in an addendum from “Ultraviolet” complaining that Facebook “fact checkers” aren’t censoring Trump supporters.
These people really don’t want any thought that doesn’t come from them being out there.
Very interesting, how four students can be overcome by one person with a knife, not a gun. [Watch]
Very interesting how anti-defensive gun use Nancy Grace can wonder about that.
Those of you who have sent in news tips on this story know I’m holding off on saying more about it until more is known.
Spivey was indicted on the charges of aggravated murder, murder, felonious assault and having weapons under disability. Cleveland police said Spivey shot and killed Delvonte King, 22, and Domonique King, 26, while they were sitting inside a car near the 16100 block of Walden Avenue. [More]
Is it fair to wonder if Spivey was outraged by George Floyd’s death because Black Lives Matter?
Hundreds of millions of dollars have been exchanged on the stock market by our elected officials in 2021 alone. In just equities, Congress bought and sold nearly $290 million throughout the year. In 2021, Congress beat the market! [More]
Did someone say “insider trading”…?
And then, of course, there are other highly lucrative forms of financial compensation that no one seems interested in…

‘Vicious and Venomous’: Raphael Warnock Says Critics of His Church’s Evictions Are Attacking Jesus [More]
That must make anyone who questions his obstruction of a child abuse investigation a minion of the antichrist.

The 2022 Mid-Terms Exposed the Existence of Two Americas and the Overwhelming Importance of the 2024 Election [More]
Forgive me if that sounds like a combination of wishful thinking and whistling past the graveyard of history.
Republicans managed to do exactly what I consistently feared. As did their leader. “Stolen elections” notwithstanding, it was their job to make sure that didn’t happen.
And the way things are shaping up for ’24, I see no change in plans.
Got alternative ones?

Will the American Empire Collapse in Our Lifetime? [More]
23 years later and I still haven’t had any gun-grabber try to answer my questions:
I must ask where in history is any civilization guaranteed stasis? Has not despotism and mass destruction plagued every civilization that preceded ours? Is it not, in fact, still commonplace throughout the globe? By what suspension of reality, by what denial of the observable and the probable, by what art, device or magic are we sheltered few immune from catastrophe? Are we certain, from our brief and privileged vantage point, that such things will ever remain headline curiosities? Is it not just plain stupid to proclaim that our familiar way of life will forever be the norm, when everything that has gone before us shows we are, instead, the extremely lucky beneficiaries of a rare and fortunate convergence of circumstances; and one, by the way, that has only been preserved under force of arms?

More Than Two Dozen Gun Control Measures Prefiled for 2023 Session of the Texas Legislature [More]
None of them pass the Bruen “historical understanding” benchmark, but that doesn’t matter to the antis, who will never stop because they have the resources and media support to keep coming and coming and coming…

Study shows cash transfers from rich to poor can increase happiness of the poor [More]
So naturally, the solution for human happiness is a dependency on communists!
Just ask CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil!
Curious thing though– they don’t really tell us much about the qualifications of the “researchers” to fundamentally alter the governance and course of humanity.
One is this guy, who also shared his “water is wet” epiphany by concluding “Smartphone use undermines enjoyment of face-to-face social interactions,” and the other fancies herself an expert in happiness who does a mediocre job of imparting it to those taking her classes.
Reality, of course, shows us that totalitarian governments with the power to impose forced wealth transfers have historically always resulted in human misery and destitution.
As an aside, you’d think a smart guy like Jeff Bezos would realize a simple truth pointed out by John Stossel:
If the IRS grabbed 100 percent of income over $1 million, the take would be just $616 billion. That’s only a third of this year’s deficit.
