Don’t Start What You Can’t Finish

The wife of actor Alec Baldwin asked for his enemies to stop attacking him [More]

I don’t suppose it occurs to her that he wouldn’t have enemies if he hadn’t attacked them first…?

Speaking of Making Zero Sense

Ballard said he’s not anti-gun, but “anti-military-style weapons.” He added that it “blows my mind away that an 18-year-old kid can walk in and buy an AK-15 automatic weapon. It makes no sense, zero. [More]

Who better to demand gun bans than some meathead who knows nothing about them?

The Blame Game

Finally, we have one Hollyweird celebrity willing to come out and say so publicly. A recent “Real Time” with Bill Maher’s monologue gave a scathing indictment that Hollyweird has a significant responsibility regarding the cause of gun violence in America. [More]

Funny. I’ve seen all kinds of screen violence over a lifetime and I’ve never let it influence me to commit an act of violence. Ditto with my wife, our sons, our extended families, our friends…

I wouldn’t be turning to Maher for any kind of special insights or wisdom. Even though he pretends to have an intellect worth heeding, the smug little media rodent ain’t half as perceptive or smart as, say, Mr. Adams in his address to the Massachusetts Militia:

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

Who Was That Masked Man?

Armie Hammer is reportedly “totally broke” following the sexual assault and cannibalism fantasy controversy he faced in 2021. [More]

He was the last Lone Ranger. The guy before him apparently liked to get drunk and slap waitresses.

I’ll stick with traditional culture and values, thank you very much:

So not only were children given development-appropriate introductions to guns by adult figures instead of being immersed in hysterical fear and avoidance, they were given training and “commonsense gun safety” lessons…

It’s also back when cereals promoted wholesome activities (even if some of us were prone to being abusive).

As an aside, my brief encounter with the man behind the mask was enough to impress me for a lifetime.

Now Hulk MAD!

Disney’s Incredible Hulk star calls on Americans to REVOLT over Supreme Court decisions… [More]

Has anybody ever figured out what this communist lump’s talent is…?

Still Crazy After All These Years

Jane Fonda Suggests America ‘Redefine Vaginas as AK-47s’ in Response to Roe v. Wade Overturn [More]

I understand hers is of a higher caliber and capacity…

John Cougar Melonballs

John Mellencamp slams politicians for not doing more to prevent gun violence: ‘They don’t give a f*** about our children’ [More]

“Our children,” collectivist?

You mean your five from three marriages?

Ain’t that America?

HOW THINGS WORK AROUND HERE

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Anyone not happy with anything on this site at any time will get 100% of all money they paid to me refunded, no questions asked. (No gratuities solicited or accepted.)

Comment House Rules

Keep them on topic. Trying to hijack threads really grinds my gears. No spam.
I moderate them so I’ll get to them when I can.
No threats against anyone except me. No fights–this is my place and if things get ugly, I treat unruly visitors the same way as I would in my home. Do not feed trolls–I’ll take out the trash.
Try to keep it clean.
I’m the final arbiter. If you don’t like the rules, start your own damn blog.

WarOnGuns Correspondents

Story tips received via email and social media messages will be credited. Just let me know how you want to be recognized (real name, first name/last initial, or screen name.)

Link Policy

I maintained a WogRoll at the old Blogspot place predicated on reciprocity with like-minded RKBA-related sites. Truth be told, I never got much in terms of site visits to make the effort worth the time. I may try to do something again in the future, but for now, my hands are more than full trying to get a new site started.

Advertising Disclosure

This is a placeholder for now because I have not done ads on the old blog for years. In case I ever start them up here, this will be the policy in effect: The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don’t think we’re getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you’re stupid, too. I have had a few ads on the old site in the past and may do so again if I think it’s worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn’t buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don’t mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now–you’re not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer without complete disclosure.

About “The Only Ones”

So named from a comment by DEA agent Lee Paige, who told a classroom full of kids he was “the only one” qualified to be armed and then promptly shot himself in the foot, the purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it’s also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank, or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they’re involved in gun-related incidents.
