Too Much of Something

As I have said before, we have too many damn guns in this community. [More]

Actually, the community has too many damn denizens who can’t be trusted with them.

Like this moron:

Officers ran after Johnson and managed to bring him into custody. According to police, a firearm was recovered with an extended magazine capable of holding 30 rounds. Johnson was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. shooting into an occupied dwelling, using a firearm in the commission of a felony and carrying a firearm with a magazine that holds more than 20 rounds.

I wonder how Dawn Savery votes.

Thanks for the Highly-Publicized Concessions!

He says it’s crucial to have laws to keep guns out of the hands of individuals who aren’t able to handle them responsibly… He also says it’s legitimate and “reasonable” to question which types of firearms, accessories and ammunition should be in wide circulation, particularly high-capacity magazines. [More]

The first is an impossibility unless they are in custody, which requires full due process, and the second is typical Fuddspeak.

It’s not about hunting or “sportsmen” or hobbies. It’s about freedom.

And, of course, the piece ends with misdirecting Bloomberg propaganda that effectively undermines every attempt the guy has made to appear reasonable. If the media approaches you for an interview and you think they’re going to give you a fair shake, think again. They’re looking to use you.

Lawsuits and Legislation

The lawsuits against Mz 114 continue to wind their way through the courts. And, to no one’s surprise the legal bills keep rolling in. [More]

More than one judge has shown hostility and costs are mounting.

Related UPDATE

On March 28th at 3pm, the Senate Education Committee is scheduled to hold a “work session” on SB 551. This bill requires that schools “provide specified information related to secure storage of firearms.” [More]

The attacks from all directions never stop. So neither can we.

Welcome to the Party, Pal

I like Mark and he’s certainly on our side, and correct about his concern. But this is way late to come to the table with the concern compared to the warnings David Codrea and I have both laid out for years now. [More]

By saying he hasn’t taken a position, he’s hedging his bets and protecting himself from being lumped in with us “xenophobes” and “haters.

We’re the Only Ones Elite Enough

No, it’s not a toy gun! Your elite 104 Precinct Public Safety Officers confiscated this illegal Orbeez air rifle, capable of causing serious injury akin to a BB gun. [More]

So neither of those two “elite” meatheads has the presence of mind to be embarrassed?

His Own Worst Enemy

San Francisco electrician hides his gun case in a backpack and his ammunition in a toolbox when he loads up his van for a day at the shooting range some 20 miles outside the city. Though he shares many of the liberal values of his neighbors—“I am an equality-loving pronoun-checking, hippie, San Francisco guy”—he conceals his status as a gun owner, worried that they would ostracize him if they knew. [More]

The rest is behind a paywall but I’ve read enough.

F*** this moron.

Gun Culture 2.0 useful idiots are exactly what the repackaged antis are counting on.

The Long and Short of It

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to remove short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and certain other weapons from the definition of firearms for purposes of the National Firearms Act, and for other purposes… Prognosis5% chance of being enacted according to Skopos Labs (details) [More]

Less than that if the Republicans don’t take over the Senate and the White House next time out.

But it makes them look like they’re doing something.

At Death’s Door

“That guy is lucky he isn’t dead”: Watch a dude break a door down in a frothing rage only to find out he got the wrong address [More]

Who does that frothing maniac think he is? An “Only One”?

I wonder if the people who found themselves defenseless and terrified are still being stupid. Because they’re also lucky they aren’t dead.

Rounding Out

Senator Rounds takes on ATF, introduces bill to expand full-time travelers’ gun ownership rights [More]

While at the same time undermining every “good” thing he does by setting them all up to ultimately be reversed.

Just the way his ally in subversion Chuck Schumer wants it.

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

Shame on You

Stop tolerating gun extremists. Shame them. [More]

If anybody should be ashamed, Quentin, it’s you.

Funny– you pick a fight but don’t provide a way to comment.

Crouch down and lick.

It’s not like someone who is willingly contemptible could stop someone equipped to demand it of you — or of anyone you are morally obligated to protect.

What a tool.
