No ‘T’-Word?

Why details are limited on the man who opened fire on Fargo Police officers – While we’re starting to get a picture of what he may have been planning, we still don’t have a photograph of Mohamad Barakat. [More]

Who thinks there’d be any holding back Democrats and the DSM if he were a white Christian Nationalist?

Would it be particularly hateful of me if I presumed to ask if the word “rigorous” applies?

Survey SAYS…

Several policy proposals that would further restrict access to guns or ammunition continue to receive support from majorities of Americans. Smaller shares of Americans support several more permissive policy proposals. [More]

You know what I’ve never seen a survey of?

How much respondents actually know about the issues they’re being questioned on…

Black Americans, Asian Americans and Latinos support gun measures more than any other racial group, according to a new study by the Pew Research Center. [More]

Is this where I rest my case?

The Heirs of Liberty

How do you get rid of guns legally in Iowa? And what provisions are in place to reduce the odds Grandpa’s pistol doesn’t fall into the wrong hands and isn’t used in a crime down the road? [More]

You’ll note the best way to do that — consider what Grandpa knew that you don’t and then learn how to use it — is nowhere mentioned.

Who thinks that’s not deliberate?

Access to Choice

What these and other recent mass shootings share in common is they all involve suspects in their teens, highlighting what can be a deadly mix of teenage bravado and impulsiveness with access to guns. [More]

Funny. Not a word about what really produces and sustains such aberrations unfit to live in a free society and allows them to flourish.

What can I say but “Associated Press“? And “DSM“?

And despite the overt attempt to convince the voting public otherwise, the problem is not — and has never been — “easy access.”

The Daily Show Attacks the 2nd Amendment Along with Firearms News’ Be Ready! Magazine

In this case, Klepper and his team set out to get gun owners with no media experience on camera responding to set-up questions and then to selectively present who would be shown and how much of their answers would be included. The intent was to present them as representative and make all of us look like ignorant rubes so that we could be laughed at, and so the entire movement of right to keep and bear arms advocacy could be dismissed as the province of morons and paranoids. [More]

Anything you say to the media can and will be held against you.

The ‘B’ Word

Special Counsel John Durham recently appeared before Congress to answer questions about his bombshell report on the FBI’s botched handling of Donald Trump’s alleged Russian collusion in 2016, and what Americans heard in the hallowed halls of the Capitol should chill them to the core. [More]

I wish “real reporters” would get it through their damned heads that deliberate indifference and criminal acts don’t qualify as “botched.”

Let’s Make Another Demand on YOU

Accidental shootings by children keep happening. How toddlers are able to fire guns. [More]

Mostly through inexcusable criminal negligence in high-risk households, but you’ll note the CBS/Everytown axis made sure to make the dangers seem uniformly widespread.

The object here is to take things that are virtually universally preventable through appropriate choices and behaviors, like addictions, unwanted pregnancies, and STDs, and turn them into “social problems” that those who behave themselves just fine end up paying the price for.

Newsom wants to ‘curb’ your constitutional gun rights: Judge Jeanine [Watch]

And Judge Jeanine doesn’t…?

Until this woman explains that she understands why what she did was wrong and apologizes for it, I don’t see any reason to view her as anything but a phony media opportunist saying whatever she thinks the crowd will go for.

No Act Too Filthy for Media Whores

The latest examples are pure propaganda from The Hill and The Washington Post on Monday, which led with scaremongering — “bomb threats over Pride items” — while completely burying the lede: The bomb threats against culturally embroiled retail giant Target came from pro-LGBT activists. [More]

That’s why I call them the DSM!
