The Ostalgie Factor

When the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act was signed into law, it was a time of hope for common sense gun control. That time quickly ended. [More]

A time of hope for whom?

Anybody with a brain (and more than a bachelors degree in a major that didn’t require actual knowledge and a career in a privileged collectivist bubble) saw it for the unworkable and treasonous usurpation of undelegated power that it was.

But I’m sure anyone closed-enough to get their “news” from MSNBC is wailing over paradise lost…

Boy Friend Loophole or Hamas?

Domestic violence exacerbated by wartime, raising concerns over looser gun policies [More]

“Real reporter” Carrie Keller-Lynn asks us to agonize over speculative conflating that doesn’t qualify “violence,” doesn’t offer evidence of armed escalation, doesn’t factor in women taking advantage of the “looser policies,” and does not account for the effects of defenselessness, all the while exploiting the depradations of a known aberrant subpopulation to impose restrictions on Everykibbutz.

You Have Been Judged

Rabble-rousing Republicans are running for a handful of Senate seats, including Kari Lake in Arizona, Alex Mooney in West Virginia, Jim Marchant in Nevada, James Craig in Michigan and more. [More]

So they appeal to the rabble…?

…a disorganized or disorderly crowd of people : MOB… a group, class, or body regarded with contempt… ordinary or common people lacking wealth, power, or social status… a disorganized or confused collection of things…

You know, deplorables. Slack-jawed hicks and flyover yokels. And no doubt racists in need of deprogramming.

Take it from more-sophisticated-than-you “real reporter” Tal Axelrod, with his Bachelors Degree in Journalism and no indication on his CV that he knows the first thing about those he casually dismisses as the riffraff, what they know, and what they’re capable of.

Gotta spread those ABC Family Values and signal “progressive” superiority over the very public that keeps parent company Disney’s doors open…

Curious thing though, this universal contempt for the proletariat our betters in the DSM seem to harbor…

Martha, My Dear

Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager who fatally shot two Black Lives Matter protesters in Wisconsin in 2020, has now gone broke, according to his lawyer. [More]

It takes six paragraphs to get to “In 2021, a jury acquitted him of all charges”…?

It’s almost like she hopes people won’t get that far…

The media has had it in for this kid since Day One. And they’re determined to never let him live a normal life.

Hunter Biden’s Lawyers are Playing to Supportive Media with ‘Vindictive Prosecution’ Insinuations

“Lawyers for Hunter Biden raised the prospect that he is the victim of ‘vindictive’ prosecution… [More]

And leave it to the “real reporters” to make that what the public takes away from all this.

Adventures in ‘Real Reporting’

Someone invented the phrase “citizen journalism” a few years ago to describe amateurs doing the work of pros. Yes, it occasionally works, but probably no more often than “citizen cop,” “citizen attorney” or “citizen soldier.” [More]

By “pros” he means he chose a college major that didn’t require math and science, and a career that didn’t require real-world subject matter experience.

What’s the biggest exclusive you’ve broken, Paul?

Bullet Points

Army Ammunition Plant Is Tied to Mass Shootings Across the U.S. [More]

Tied by whom, Ben Dooley of The New York Times, the “D” part of the DSM? What was the purpose of writing this article?

I wonder if you compared all ammo sold by Lake City to the civilian market to the number of those rounds used in acts of violence what the abuse rate would be, and how many “0s” would follow the “.” to come up with a percentage…

She led the National School Walkout after the Parkland mass shooting. Then she left America [More]

And STAY out!

Meanwhile, CNN/Aol repeats the Big Lie:

Firearms are now the No. 1 killer of children and teens in America, surpassing motor vehicles accidents, which had been the leading cause of death among youth until 2020.

Got truth…?

Without a Trace

The Trace story quotes Byrna’s founder, president and chief executive officer, Bryan Ganz. However, on Friday, Ganz told the Second Amendment Foundation’s Investigative Journalism Project that he had never even heard of the Trace until the story appeared Thursday morning. The freelance writer who wrote the story claimed it would appear in a different publication. [More]

How can you be an industry leader and be so oblivious about the media environment you’re operating in?
