I’m with Hank on This One

Dickey and Rosenberg started out as “mortal enemies,” but after making small talk about their kids during a chance conversation they developed “an incredible friendship,” as Rosenberg recounts. Years later, they were habitually ending their conversations by telling each other “I love you,” and “we really meant it,” Rosenberg says. Through the power of this human connection, Dickey ends up seeing reason and changing his mind. He comes to believe that the amendment bearing his name was a mistake. [More]

Survey SAYS…

If Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) and U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D) face off in a possible 2024 U.S. Senate contest, 41 percent of Virginians would support Kaine, while 39 percent could support Youngkin, according to this year’s survey. [More]

How would this be possible?

“More… we need more!” says Mark Warner.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority

And Jorge helped!

Clear as Mud

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is issuing this open letter to further assist the firearms industry and the public in understanding whether a “partially complete, disassembled, or nonfunctional” receiver of an AR-15/M-16 variant weapon has reached a stage of manufacture such that it “may readily be completed, assembled, restored, or otherwise converted” to a functional receiver, and is therefore classified as a “frame or receiver” or “firearm” in accordance with the final rule titled “Definition of ‘Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms (Final Rule 2021R-05F), which became effective August 24, 2022.

At least until they change the rules again.

Any questions?

Ah, the original Bloomberg City! The one he and his fellow violence monopolists are bent on remaking the rest of the country in the image of…

Every Terrible Implement

CONNECTICUT CITIZENS DEFENSE LEAGUE AND SECOND AMENDMENT FOUNDATION SUE CT OVER BAN ON MODERN SPORTING ARMS [More]

I dunno– “in Common Use for Lawful Purposes Throughout the United States” seems to exclude everything that’s not, including what will be developed in the future.

As noted:

The Supreme Court, in its infamous Miller decision, nonetheless recognized the function of the Militia, defined as “all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense [and] bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time,” was — and still is — to field citizen soldiers. These citizens bore arms that were suitable for that purpose, “ordinary military equipment” intended to be taken into “common defense” battles. The Militia did not assemble on the green bearing clubs and spears. They came with the intent to match and best a professional military threat. A modern Militia would require citizens to keep and bear exactly what the gun-grabbing politicians are trying to take away from them, what they pejoratively denounce as “weapons of war.”

And as noted:

Second Amendment will be Nullified if ‘Common Use’ is Restricted to ‘Popularity’

The Real Story

“But the real story here isn’t that I am seeking to change my name, but that a process that is supposed to protect and shield those in danger was undermined and sealed information was released to the right wing media within hours of my filing… [More]

The real story here is anyone who thinks the government has their privacy interests at heart is delusional.

Welcome to our world, lefty.

How to Win Friends and Influence People

Biden Puts Italy’s New PM Giorgi Meloni on the Same Level as Chinese Dictator Xi Jinping – Xi “makes the case straight up that democracies can’t be sustained in the 21st century. You just saw what’s happened in Italy in that election. You’re seeing what’s happening around the world.” [More]

Way to insult an ally and alienate its voters.

I thought people who questioned election results were insurrectionists…?

Life in the Retardocracy

Barnes once said he “really could not care less about a 2nd Amendment ‘right’” to bear arms. [More]

This just proves what a damned idiot and a tool he is, and how willfully ignorant his supporters must be.

What the “our democracy” string-pullers don’t seem to be taking into account is when you erode respect for a position by offering obvious boobs like this as placeholders, you replace it with contempt for the office. Or maybe they are taking it into account, and it’s all part of a plan to bring about the day when they can drop all pretenses because their rule will be unchallengeable.

I Guess Tide Pods Aren’t Cutting It Anymore


Aside from some good barbecued ribs, we don’t get all that many trends starting out in Kansas City

In a way, especially with “burner phones” and TORFone, this seems like the type of terror threat that could be organizationally exploited, which I wouldn’t be surprised to find accounts for its rapid growth. Add in foreign enemies like Kim in North Korea or for Russia to retaliate for sending arms to Ukraine, and this looks like an “enemies foreign and domestic” dream tactic.

And let’s not forget those who benefit the most by creating a problem the public will demand only they can solve…

We sure have come a long way since Amanda Huginkiss
