Exactly the Model

Yes: Tobacco. The tobacco industry is exactly the model that I think of in terms of the decades of work that it will take to address this issue.” [More]

You know, “dirty, deadly, and banned.”

But no one is talking about taking your guns.

As an aside, “journalist” Rita Braver, with her practiced “empathy,” is obviously performing for the camera. I wonder how many viewers realized that was to manipulate their emotions while they were being presented with only one side and the wrong side at that.

What can I say but “CBS“?

Adventures in Baselessness

Media pillar admits ‘potential vulnerabilities,’ ‘security challenges’ in electronic pollbooks – But Associated Press frets about possible exploitation of issues by purveyors of “election conspiracies” and continues to advocate use of the devices. [More]

So if it’s corrupt they don’t want anybody acting on it?

As Long as We’re Being Particular

The report comes as the nation grapples with a rise in violent crime, particularly from guns Democrat jurisdictions. [More]

I fixed it for them.

Attributing increases to the recent rise in gun sales is a repackaging of the trick they tried to do to blame things on the pandemic. As I noted a few months back:

In order for pandemic-related sales to significantly move statistics, the transference from the “legal” to the “illegal” market would need to be almost instantaneous, when in fact, ATF time-to-crime (“the amount of time between the retail sale of a firearm by a federal firearms licensee (FFL) and its recovery by law enforcement”) statistics show a national average period for 2021 of 6.21 years.

Not that we should expect either the Bureau or the Associated Press to factor that into their public consumption “conclusions.”

So Much for the Canons of Journalism

Major News Outlets Say They’re Ditching Objectivity In The Name Of ‘Diversity’ [More]

“Authorized journalists.”

“Fourth estate fifth columnists.”

“Real reporters.”

Dare one say “Lügenpresse“?

Any way you look at it. they’re the DSM and they’re not even trying to hide it anymore.

Call Roto-Reuters, That’s the Name

The U.S. Department of Justice said it has obtained a court order blocking two firearms companies from imperiling public safety by illegally selling devices to convert AR-15 style rifles into machine guns. [More]

Gee, no interjecting editorial sentiment there. It makes me appreciate even more the link at the bottom of the piece about “Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles.”

I’ve been a long-time fan of those!

Meanwhile, Over in Al Capone’s Vault…

A “real reporter.”

Rivera, a gun owner, was illustrating that the Second Amendment didn’t cover modern firearms capable of mass killings when the amendment was ratified in 1791. And that AR-15-style rifles go far beyond self-defense. [More]

Ah, the long-debunked “The Founders could have never imagined” bullsh!+.

Figures this moron would be spreading it.

I recall writing an Examiner article years back where a guy was prosecuted for having a muzzleloader in New York City. I can’t find it now and don’t recall the details, but it would be funny if Geraldo incriminated himself.

How he got it in the studio is another question.

And figures, HuffPo would think he won the argument.

Demand for ‘Commonsense Gun Laws’ is the Road to Citizen Disarmament

We’ve seen the same list before and we know that citizen disarmament has always been and remains the goal. [More]

Right out of the “progressive” totalitarian apologist playbook: Dust off the same old sh!+ and present it as new–all the while masking what you really want and counting on a critical mass of useful idiots to believe it’s for their own good.

Attempt at Crowder Control?

The bigger picture here is that some things are worth more than any amount of money—things like dignity, principles, and the ability to speak freely without asking permission from Ben Shapiro. [More]

I confess I don’t know enough about this to offer an informed opinion. That said, anything with Shapiro’s name on it is suspect in my book.

Lies of Commission

By now you may have heard or seen stories in the media claiming that the firm “representing” Oregon Firearms Federation in our Federal lawsuit is owed thousands of dollars in legal fees. This allegation is false. Maxine Bernstein (mbernstein@oregonian.com; 503-221-8212) a “reporter” for the failing “Oregonian” who made these allegations (which were parroted by others in the cartel media), knows it’s false. [More]

Jeez, if we can’t believe a “real reporter,” who can we believe?

I don’t see this up on the OFF Alerts page yet, so I went ahead and posted it to my WoG Placeholder blog.

NYT ‘Sugarcoats’ on Hunter Biden as New Secret Service Gun FOIA Comes Up Empty

In one fell swoop, The Times has reversed its position not just on “background checks,” but if you think about it, on “red flag laws,” too. It’s evidently OK, if you’re the Democrat president’s son, to commit a felony and lie on the federal form because most of the time nobody gets prosecuted for it. And when you’re distraught to the point that those closest to you feel compelled to throw your gun away because you might kill yourself, nothing says “therapy” like buying a gun and going to the range! [More]

And if the Secret Service truly wasn’t involved, don’t you think voices a lot bigger than mine ought to be asking “Who were those guys?”

Doing the Executions Americans Won’t Do

6 family members, including baby, shot dead at home in targeted ‘massacre’: Sheriff [More]

Notice they don’t identify the victims even though everything about this screams victim and perp cartel affiliations? And when the accompanying video is over, the next one begins with a somber “America: armed and dangerous”?
