We’re the Only Ones Exonerated Enough

No Charges in Deadly ATF Arkansas Home Raid [More]

Did anyone seriously think there would be?

Those whose Constitutional mandate is to not infringe on it executed a citizen for exercising his right. Their pretext, that some of his sales allegedly went to “prohibited persons,” is a fraudulent excuse because there is no delegated power authorizing the whole concept.

There’s only one way to address that problem…

If Only They’d Disarm You and Me…

Schierbaum said the suspected shooter has been arrested at least 11 times and is someone who should never have been in possession of a gun. [More]

Yeah? And how does he propose to make that happen?

Interesting response options

On a positive note, at least Moriarty wouldn’t have been scared.

Tangentially-Related UPDATES (Alright, they happened around Atlanta, so I’m gonna stuff ’em all in the same drawer)

These two take me back years, to a job I briefly touched on. They hired me to run their plant in SoCal but wanted to indoctrinate me with an introductory month-long gig as the preseident’s personal assistant, to learn the company (his) ways.

I wasn’t there but a day or two when he got the call that his Atlanta plant manager needed brain tumor surgery, so my trial by fire was to fly down there and take over the factory until such time as he could come back to work or a permanent replacement could be found.

I was going through the financials with the controller down there and asked why we were being hit up for something called “MARTA,” and she explained the Metropolitian Regional Transit Authority sales tax. The (black) foreman overheard us, laughed, and told me it stood for something else.

Both ‘Sides’ Ignoring the Instinctive Truth

Likening drug users to people who are “mentally ill and dangerous,” the ruling says barring them from owning firearms is not unconstitutional on its face. [More]

vs.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just said that the felon in possession of firearms statute may not apply to nonviolent felons. [Watch]

They did it!

They missed the barn!

Running with Scissors: The Adventure Continues

The FBI arrested a cruise ship employee in Juneau on Tuesday afternoon, the day after he allegedly stabbed multiple people with scissors aboard the Norwegian Encore. Ntando Sogoni, 35, of South Africa was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon. He faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. [More]

At which point we can trust him with sharp everyday objects again…?

The Wrong People

The now 49-year-old father of 12-year-old twin girls focuses on the bad guys who end up using the guns, he said. “Guns are not the problem,” said DeVito, who plans to retire next month. “I’m an advocate of the second amendment. At the end of the day, the problem is guns ending up in the hands of the wrong people.” [More]

And there’s only one solution to that. The one nobody wants to acknowledge.

Another Reason to Sue Glock

Man just released from prison involved in shooting in St. Pete…Small was firing at people outside with a 9 mm Glock handgun with a 50-round drum for a magazine…a short time later he was spotted firing into a home in the 1600 block of 42nd Avenue South, where a blind elderly man lives…he ran off into a nearby lot on 40th St S. Small reportedly fired two rounds at the officer. [More]

There oughta be a law!

A Way to Make It Harder

Dettelbach, in the AP interview, declined to comment on the specifics of Card’s case, which an independent commission in Maine is investigating. But he said it is clear that the nation needs to make it harder for people “that everyone agrees should not have firearms, who the law says are not entitled to have firearms, to get them because it’s too easy to get them now.” [More]

But we already know a way.

It’s just that there’s this “due process” thing those who would rule us don’t want to have to follow…

Herer’s a first step in the right direction, but as long as they’ve got to be let out before they can be declared safe with certainty, expect plenty of lapses.

An Idea with Room to Grow

Ah, the obvious solution!

Releasing them like this, with a charge that goes off if tampered with, is the only way I can see trusting them without a custodian.

We can even go high tech.

And include everybody!

Hey, if you’re not doing anything wrong, why would anyone but a white supremacist object?

All in the Family

Crumbley’s defense attorney, meanwhile, argued that Crumbley had shown signs of severe mental illness years prior to the shooting, and neither his parents nor school officials did anything to help him. They also argued that he has the potential to be rehabilitated, saying he has participated in therapy every day and is taking medication by his own choice. [More]

Sorry, but what he did is so twisted and evil I’d recommend conclusive proof that he can be trusted with a gun before opening that cage.

A Clear and Present Danger

22-time convicted felon burglarizes homes while on parole for 19 armed robberies [More]

There outghta be a law

And for all the dolts out still saying “enforce existing gun laws,” it’s on you to explain how that works on “the black market,” as well as why you’d obey infringements like a tyrant’s lickspittle rather than defy them like an exemplar of freedom by becoming a “gun criminal.”

A Vibrant Demoncrat

A Nicaraguan man who was deported from the US five times has been sentenced to 19 years behind bars for raping an Ohio woman — claiming that he committed the depraved act because he was “possessed by a demon.” [More]

Brought to you by Pathway to Citizenship Democrats and Cheap Labor Republicans.

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

And nice to know that in 19 years (less with “good behavior,” i.e., if he doesn’t rape any non-existent women) he’ll be safe to release.

Failure All Around

“We are sorry the system failed you.” [More]

If I smother someone to death can I blame “the system”?

And does Youngkin really think that sucking up will earn him appreciative kudos?

Yes, of course, if someone can’t be trusted without a custodian that should mean the custodians assume a legal duty for his care and his welfare. But guess who doesn’t want that.

Funny, what Youngkin won’t take a stand on, like “red flags.”

But hardly surprising.
