So Much for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion…

America’s gun epidemic is deadlier than ever, and there are vast disparities in who’s dying [More]

Lemme guess: No one is being murdered by NRA members?

And that which the left would have us believe results from “systemic racism” is actually a result of that other buzzword they throw out to justify more deaths, “choice”?

Far from the Madding Crowd

A New York Times analysis of more than 700 armed demonstrations found that, at about 77 percent of them, people openly carrying guns represented right-wing views, such as opposition to L.G.B.T.Q. rights and abortion access, hostility to racial justice rallies and support for former President Donald J. Trump’s lie of winning the 2020 election. [More]

As long as they’re going to bring up lies, just calling questioning the election “baseless” does not make it so, nor do demands to impose coercive Marxist wealth redistribution equate with racial justice.

I’d argue going unarmed anywhere you know violent communists are going to be is not prudent. Then again, I’d also argue for being very selective about joining public displays and the part you choose to play in this era of embedded provocateurs and seditious conspiracy trials…

I’ve been a speaker and observer over the decades. Ours wasn’t the side frothing with “hostility.” Another lesson learned: You don’t do yourself any favors or advance any issues by becoming a victim or a patsy.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word ‘Culture’ Is

America’s deadly gun culture: Over 600 mass shootings in one year [More]

Funny… when I think of the phrase “gun culture,” I think of the millions of members of the NRA, GOA, SAF, etc., that is, the most heavily armed citizen population on the planet that is also demonstrably the most peaceable.

So it’s not the guns.

The problem with those responsible for murder is they are beyond being simply uncultured.

Of course, those responsible for blaming good Americans for the predations of evil know that — well, maybe not the “authorized journalists,” who as a whole have proven ignorant, biased, and lazy, but certainly the cold and calculating minds giving them all the narrative talking points to parrot.

But Still Enough to Elect Democrats

Diminished Majority Supports Stricter Gun Laws In U.S. [More]

There are still too many low-information ignoramuses out there willing to swallow whatever bilge the antis are pumping into them.

It’s up to each of us to be force multipliers and share the truth within our spheres of influence.

Medieval Times

A New York City Police Department spokesman told the Washington Examiner that the man entered the building with a sword and ax and asked to “speak with someone in the politics section.” Security denied him, and he handed over his weapons when asked without incident. [More]

Now imagine if he’d been a serious threat. Is Times security up to the task, and if so, isn’t that interesting?

Good Riddance

David Brock Leaves Media Matters for Undisclosed Reasons [More]

Based on his past behaviors, I’m hoping for a juicy scandal. It would be interesting to see what reasons people would come up with if someone hosted a write-in poll.

But what if it’s something tragic and serious? Wouldn’t I feel bad?

About as bad as the lying hive insects over at Media Matters would if something bad happened to me…

There Can Be Only One

Donald Trump should not get free airtime on CNN and other news networks. Sign this petition immediately. [More]

You can’t have free elections with anyone who’s not a doctrinaire communist running because “our democracy” relies on there only being one side!

And I put in an addendum from “Ultraviolet” complaining that Facebook “fact checkers” aren’t censoring Trump supporters.

These people really don’t want any thought that doesn’t come from them being out there.

Amazing Grace

Very interesting, how four students can be overcome by one person with a knife, not a gun. [Watch]

Very interesting how anti-defensive gun use Nancy Grace can wonder about that.

Those of you who have sent in news tips on this story know I’m holding off on saying more about it until more is known.

Nothing to See Here

In other words, the corrupt Ukraine regime partnered with a corrupt crypto slush fund to take dollars from the corrupt US government and funnel them into the hands of corrupt Democrat candidates to win rigged mid-term elections. [More]

Nothing about that connection on CNN… so does that mean they’re helping bury it or does that mean fakery is being introduced to obscure the truth and protect something else?

I’m sure the media and Congress will get right on finding the truth about the second-largest donor to the utterly fraudulent “party of the workin’ man” after George Soros…

11th Hour Smear

One longtime former co-worker in the television news business recalled that Kari Lake detested guns and practiced Buddhism. Another former local news anchor, Stephanie Angelo, who did not work with Ms. Lake but later became close friends with her, described Ms. Lake back then as “a free spirit” and “liberal to the core.” [More]

Figures, progs never heard of the Road to Damascus.

There was a time decades ago — before I knew what the hell I was talking about — that I “thought” gun licensing and registration would be useful.

They would be, but not for the reasons I foolishly believed.

Hell, Mike Vanderboegh was an out-and-out communist.

Guess what: People grow. At least some of us do.

And guess who every single one of the “authorized journalists” coming out with this “revelation” now wants to win?

Speaking of Shoddy Conclusions…

The Shoddy Conclusions of the Man Shaping the Gun-Rights Debate – John Lott is the most influential pro-gun researcher in the country. But his methods and findings have been repeatedly debunked. [More]

I see a lot of smears, a lot of ad hominem, and a lot of denials by those with vested monetary grant interests, but what I’m not seeing is actual data to refute him. Forgive me if I suspect a partnership with the Bloomberg-“seeded” The Trace might play a factor in this obvious hit piece.

Incidentally, I had to open this in an “incognito” window because I’ve used up my “free” reads. Forgive me again if I don’t see anything offered by these smug effete elites worth paying for.

Plenty of truth to this cover, wouldn’t you say?

Meanwhile, Over at the Heart of Darkness…

It doesn’t matter what brand your politics is, this is Stasi stuff. [More]

Which is why they’re so intent on declaring anyone who knows that an enemy of the state… and noting how far they’ve dumbed down their constituents, all they have to do is scream “Racist!” and “Nazi!” and their DSM functionaries will do the rest.

Rotting from the Head

The FBI is asking a U.S. court to reverse its order that it produce information from Seth Rich’s laptop computer. If the court does not, the bureau wants 66 years to produce the information. [More]

That every elected official and every major news organization is not unrelentingly screaming “WHY?” tells us what we need to know.

Parroting the Narrative

It’s impossible not to notice, though. When certain issues come up, anybody deviating from a certain position is viciously attacked and “cancelled.” [More]

So I haven’t just been imagining stuff like “baseless” or “botched gun sting“…?
