Last month Padden, now 74 and retired, joined with a nonprofit group called the Media and Democracy Project (MAP) to urge the Federal Communications Commission to deny Fox’s renewal of its license to operate one of its largest stations, WTXF in Philadelphia, known as Fox29. Padden and MAP argue that Fox lacks the “character” required by the FCC to be a license holder, because of post-election misinformation spread by another company entity: Fox News.
“Fox has undermined our democracy and has radicalized a segment of our population by presenting knowingly false narratives about the legitimacy of the 2020 election,” Padden wrote in a statement supporting MAP’s petition, which accuses Fox of “intentional, knowing news distortion.” [More]

Somebody wants me down. And typically I see it coming from all kinds of countries, but this time:

Beats me. My tech “skills” merit those quotation marks and pretty much nothing else.
I wonder if there’s any relation…
I haven’t been this enamored of “social media” since Facebook told me wishing readers a contemplative Bill of Rights Day violated community standards.
Since the only reason I’m on “social media” (which I use as advocacy media) is to promote my work and support the work of others, I don’t solicit for “friends” or “followers” for the exact reason that to do so WOULD be spamming. They “friend” or “follow” me first.
So what this tells me is either the share utilities on this blog or AmmoLand or Firearms News triggered this OR some prohibitionist “followed” me so they could lodge complaints when my stuff appears on their feed — and some kneejerk bureaucrat then kicked it into the penalty box without assessing legitimacy. If they can do that (and we’ve established they have networks for it), then the power to censor is in the hands of the antis.
Why don’t I just quit? Who else is going to promote my work by sharing my links — the ones asking that? And for reasons I detailed here.
And if my stuff is “spam,” how come every day I get multiple follower notices like this?
I’d like to find out if Musk believes all that stuff he says about free speech. So how does a relative nobody get a world-famous billionaire’s attention?
Guilty until proven innocent with no evidence presented and/or not being able to face your accuser is the stuff of tyranny.

The Responsible Firearms Marketing Act would require the Commission to study the actions of gun manufacturers, importers, and dealers, including those which might target individuals younger than 18 years of age, encourage illegal use of a firearm, or relate to the sale of semiautomatic assault weapons.

Why would tyrannical Democrat subversives with no respect for the Second Amendment have any respect for the First?
I do wonder if you questioned convicted juvenile shooters in the urban hotbeds where “gun violence” is most prevalent — and asked them which gun magazine and which specific ad inspired them — if any of them would know what the f*** you were talking about.
With Republicans in control of the House, this will go nowhere. For now.

The New Way YouTube is Going After 2A Content [Watch]
As opposed to the “old way”? I had a genuine original news video, non-monetized, mind you, taken from a car, of ATF trying to fire Fast and Furious whistleblower Vince Cefalu that got blocked by Google-owned YouTube after it started getting noticed on bogus “copyright” grounds because you could hear the radio playing a song in the background:
There’s a reason I went through all the contortions to leave Google–owned Blogger and find a platform safe from censorship, and since I don’t do ads here, there’s nothing to demonetize.

Arizona House lawmaker Stephanie Stahl-Hamilton was captured on security cameras removing a Bible from the House members-only lounge… [Watch]
No word on what she’d dare do with a Quran.
And this should surprise absolutely no one:
Enacting sensible gun safety laws alongside preventative measures is the best course of action for Arizona. Preventative measures such as conducting universal background checks (which closes the gun show loophole), mandating a reasonable waiting period, and requiring education regarding safe gun storage practices with every gun purchase. Every person who carries a gun for their job as well as active military is required to obtain a firearm license. Civilians should be required to do so as well.
