Notes from the Resistance
She’s established up front she has power. She spends the rest of her screed demonstrating she does not have the wisdom or integrity to wield it responsibly. [More]
Brought to you by stupid voters engaged in chronic citizenship malpractice…
Who better to trust to “control” our guns than politicians with a history of communist radicalism? [More]
These are the domestic enemies the Founders warned us against.
Who but someone willfully deluding herself, a liar, or both, would deliberately ignore that the militia is comprised of citizens “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”? Its function was — and still is — to field citizen soldiers. And 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 torches and pitchforks. They came with the intent to match and best a professional military threat. [More]
And worst of all, this robed … thing … was confirmed by a Republican majority Senate.
How lumping the good in with the bad and the healthy in with the troubled, ignoring politically inconvenient realities, and mandating increased restrictions on the fundamental rights of all demonstrates excellence, dignity, and respect is not explained. Such “equity” seems a curious way of saying “Thank you for your service.” [More]
Is a politically self-serving report that ignores the basics and tells servicemembers they’re not trusted really the best way to help those in serious pain and immediate need?
…if you cancel a card, your credit score takes a hit. So….don’t like the card’s policies? Don’t use that card, just retire it to the back of your wallet, or even shred it, but don’t cancel it. [More]
For what it’s worth, I had a card I never used and after a few years the credit card company canceled it.
The thought strikes that if this concern is enough to not even take a small action, what chance is there for larger actions when there’s a larger price to pay?
But if the merchant codes don’t go to the SKU (stock keeping unit) level and identify specific items purchased, some may question what the big deal is. For that, look to the proponents of the codes and how they have announced they intend to use them. [More]
The rope-selling “capitalists” don’t seem to realize what historically happens when their usefulness is up.
And based on supporting candidates like party switch-hitter Arlen Specter, Pat Toomey, Tom Ridge, and Brian Fitzpatrick, a critical mass of Pennsylvania Republicans is demonstrably willing to throw gun owners under the bus in exchange for the false promise of “less government.” They’re the useful idiot “bourgeoisie” the Democratic Socialists are counting on being asleep. This also explains why disarming them is such a priority. [More]
With “Republicans” like Fitzpatrick, who needs Democrats?
Besides, a “gunman” (note the implied pejorative – “Scumbag Murderer” is much more apt) intent on slaughtering human beings is not likely to be deterred by “gun laws,” and this one was no exception. [More]
The killer may not help advance their narrative as much as the gun-grabbers were hoping for.
I was busy writing up my take on the MSU shootings and just submitted the draft to AmmoLand.
What these actions don’t mitigate or excuse is the police opening fire on him immediately after he emerged unarmed from his trailer with his hands raised and his wife directly behind him. [More]
So will the State Bureau of Investigation and the DA aggressively pursue this, and if not, why not?
A SWAT team firing on an unarmed man with his hands in the air isn’t newsworthy? [More]
There are plenty of unanswered questions. Why aren’t the “real reporters” asking them?
To paraphrase Democrat strategist James Carville’s slogan about the economy, it’s the criminals, stupid. [More]
They’re going after the wrong thing. Not that the useful idiots will notice.
“Most counties experience no murders, a smaller set where there are a few murders, and then a tiny set of counties where murders are very common.” [More]
Guns aren’t the problem.
I’ll be out all of tomorrow and have much to do behind the scenes today.
I’ll try to get to some of the email tips sent since yesterday later this afternoon, but no guarantees. My priority will be on publicizing articles I expect to be published on AmmoLand and Firearms News, and on working on a couple of new ones I’ve started drafting.
Please hold off on further correspondence until Thursday, because chances are I won’t be able to do anything with it. Also, don’t be surprised if comment moderation is delayed more than usual.
NRA Elections 2023: LaPierre Wins – NRA Members Lose [More]
Sorry, I’ve tried caring but I’ve got to focus my energies on where they have a chance to nudge.
I’ll keep letting them service my life member magazine subscription.
We’ve seen the same list before and we know that citizen disarmament has always been and remains the goal. [More]
Right out of the “progressive” totalitarian apologist playbook: Dust off the same old sh!+ and present it as new–all the while masking what you really want and counting on a critical mass of useful idiots to believe it’s for their own good.
The Fifth Circuit judges who ruled favorably were influenced by arguments formulated and advanced by two of its principals, firearms designer Len Savage and attorney Stamboulieh. [More]
Untangling the web, one sticky thread at a time…
Is this the way we want the police to act? Does this make you less likely to “back the blue” and more likely to consider law enforcement the violence arm of those who would rule? [More]
Watch the video and decide for yourself.
In one fell swoop, The Times has reversed its position not just on “background checks,” but if you think about it, on “red flag laws,” too. It’s evidently OK, if you’re the Democrat president’s son, to commit a felony and lie on the federal form because most of the time nobody gets prosecuted for it. And when you’re distraught to the point that those closest to you feel compelled to throw your gun away because you might kill yourself, nothing says “therapy” like buying a gun and going to the range! [More]
And if the Secret Service truly wasn’t involved, don’t you think voices a lot bigger than mine ought to be asking “Who were those guys?”
“All gun sales, even private ones, were stopped dead in their tracks until that system came back up. If it took a month, then gun sales would have been stopped for a month.” [More]
But don’t worry– rights weren’t “denied.” You just couldn’t exercise them.
