News You Can Wipe With

Students walk out at CVPA High School, protest gun violence [More]

Well, yeah, because learning is racist.

I wonder how many have relatives in jail… Still, I can almost forgive these children because they don’t know any better and have had their views shaped from Day One by idiots, useful and otherwise — like on-camera spokesgelding Patrick Clark, who parrots the narrative right at the start, with his insipid “young people advocating for commonsense gun safety measures” lead-in.

The Non-Psychic FFL Loophole

Gun store owner says shooter who killed 2 schoolchildren showed no warning signs before attack… Westman had already passed the required background checks and had a valid permit to purchase the gun… [More]

So, if prior restraints thrown up by all the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t stop him, what’s the point of saying the store guy didn’t catch any disqualifiers?

Ah, the old “You’re law-abiding until you’re not” argument the grabbers apply to all of us… And that gun manufacturers and dealers “knew or should have known”…

Two words: Associated Press.

A Man of Letters

We can always count on your paper to print illogical rants when it comes to guns, and the Aug. 4 editorial where it lent its voice to the New York Daily News was no exception (“Gullible public laps up same toxic myth about guns”). [More]

WarOnGuns Correspondent Andy M got another letter published

Every regular reader here — especially those of you who post comments — has everything he needs to write a letter to the editor. Why not do it?

I used to get ’em published all the time — before I started blogging and doing magazine columns (nice to see SCOTUS has finally come around on history and tradition):

Great… my woke spell check is acting up again:

Speaking of Haters…

Comedian Dave Foley Rants About MAGA ‘Sub-Breed’ with CNN Host Michael Ian Black: Trump Supporters ‘Hate Whoever They’re Told to Hate’ and ‘Support Fascism’ [More]

Who?

The guy uses words like “sub-breed” and then talks Nazi Germany?

Remember when comedians could make America laugh? Opposite Day “progressives”…

And when “news” networks hadn’t adopted Antifa’s “fascist/Nazi” slurs…?

Fair Means or Foul

Violence is hitting Ohio’s county fairs, and state law protects guns over fairgoers [More]

It would help if they told us which laws the violent would obey, and how making the peaceable more vulnerable to their predation would do anything but make it worse.

But, like typical statists, their answer is to disempower the individual and give more to the controllers, and call for more when that predictably doesn’t do anything but put free men in restraints.

You don’t hate “authorized journalists” enough.

Search Me

Searching for Meaning at the Thunder Ranch Gun School [More]

If you’re lost you can’t find yourself in secondary pursuits and need to address your core issues first? Who knew?

I’m searching for a point to this article and wondering why Thunder Ranch gave the anti-gun New York Times access, and if I can get my minutes wasted reading it back…

Lies of Omission

“Greyhound? I’m working on trying to get them to stop their policy of letting guns be carried across state lines…and we want Governor Kemp to come on with the gun law, close it back. We don’t need our young brothers with guns,” Hightower said. [More]

Yo, Fox 5 and “real reporter” Eric Mock (originally from Portland OR) who called it “murder”: You don’t think it’s important to inform your readers/viewers that the “victim” was a “prohibited person” who was shot and killed while trying to commit an armed robbery…?

Any plans on a “clarification” or are you hoping nobody notices?

Redefining ‘Government Watchdog’

Denver Post Doxxes Citizens For Sharing Pictures And Public Records About Crime… “People who claim to be citizen journalists must stand by their work with a byline and endure the negative comments and threats that come with the job,” wrote Denver Post columnist Krista Kafer. [More]

Ever here of “Publius,” Krista?

Be careful — that doxxing door swings both ways, and your fellow Democrats changed the rules of engagement.
