Far-left streamer Hasan Piker gloats after Dem blowout, promises ‘jail’ for conservative enemies [More]
They’re not leaving us much room, are they?
But Wait! There’s more!
More “commonsense gun safety laws,” anyone?

The French Mistake
A Warning From France [More]
Prediction: Crime will go up under Democrat rule and being leftist is no guarantee against riots– it’s more like an invitation.
Hatred and racism against “Heritage Americans” is about to kick into higher gear. Plan where you go accordingly.
Because the enemy is planning, too.
And speaking of France:

And they have the Everytown Wish List of “gun laws” there.

We’re the Only Ones Unsecuring Enough
Massachusetts state troopers repeatedly failed to conduct security sweeps at Logan Airport, I-Team sources say [More]
And one they caught was pretty sure he could get away with lying about it, which leads to wondering how long he — and others — did…
Yeah, I’m sure glad these guys have guns where you and I are not “allowed” to.

The Reports of My Death are Greatly Exaggerated?
This may not be true: It was also reported that this was “fake news” based on a hack of his facebook page. So … mostly we don’t know. [More]
Who is “reporting” that?
I’ve long been a big one for cautioning people against passing on rumors and not verifying sources, so if it does turn out to be true, I failed to follow my own advice. All I can say is my mind is not set up to expect the kind of sickness that would get off on doing something like this, and in this day and age, I guess that’s yet another failure on my part.
In defense of those of us who weighed, there is this, from Gun.com and Daily Caller via AOL News:
- 2A Legend Robert K. Brown Passes, Aged 93
- Robert K. Brown, Publisher And Advocate For Second Amendment, Vets Passes Away At 93
That last one is by Harold Hutchison, who was consulting senior editor at SOF from 2007 to 2016 and presumably ought to know.
That leads to the other possibility: What kind of sick f_ would start a rumor that the death announcement was a hoax?
I suppose I could try and clear things up by emailing Col. Brown’s address, but why pester a family that made no announcement in August to ask them to clear up a toxic internet spill?
I’m going with the initial report is true and rumors of a hoax are just trolling until someone proves otherwise.
There’s a Storm Coming
How’d that 3D chess work out for us?
I didn’t want to post it before the midterms to discourage anybody from voting, but I predicted in private that Republicans were going to get their asses handed to them.
I’m getting ready to guest on a podcast to dissect what happened, and speculate on what happens next and what we can do about it.
Shameless Plug

Pole Position
Slowly, a new authoritarian imperial order is taking shape within the European Union. This must be met with an unyielding patriotic response. [More]
Which is why, as noted, an existential crisis is no time to find out how many Poles it takes to swap a mag.
Except, as is so often true, the main threat was not external.
Beats the Alternative
Unsuppressed: Straight Shooting with Chris Chiafullo and ATF Director Robert Cekada [Watch]
Longtime readers know I view services like FFLGuard essential for dealers who want to keep trouble from happening in the first place and who don’t want to have to go for help when things blow up on them.
I’m surprised this exclusive video hasn’t gotten more widespread publicity within the 2A community. Please help change that, and while you’re at it, bookmark the channel to watch more.
We know since this was made several days back a key player discussed is moving on. And yeah, unless and until what we all want happens, this is as good as we’re gonna get, which is a hell of a lot better than anything we’ve had so far.
A Woman’s Prerogative
I figured out what her rage screaming reminded me of.
God help me, I’m agreeing with James Carville, just not for the same reasons. Funny, how leftists are allowed to get away with vulgar sexism that would cancel anyone else.
And sorry, Rep. Luna, why would a 2A stalwart offer aid and comfort to an enemy who wants to disarm us and not have their priorities questioned? Taking the win does not require further support.
This whole flap illustrates a key difference between ruthless Democrats playing to win and feckless Republicans dithering to look fair. The former are demanding Steven’s head. Where is the similar lynching party for serial turncoat Lisa Murkowski over the same offense?
Soldier of Fortune, RIP
Col. Brown, me, Mike Vanderboegh, Dave Workman (Photo Liston Matthews)
Very sad news for the Soldier of Fortune community. Robert K. Brown, founder of Soldier of Fortune, has passed away at age 93. His wife announced today that he died on August 28. Today would have been his 94th birthday. [More]
That is sad.
I’ll be forever grateful for his kind recognition. It’s funny… I recall getting occasional emails and phone calls from him soliciting my input on this or that, and always having the feeling that a man of great insight was treating me with more consideration than I merited.
I guess making people feel valued is what makes a leader that you follow because you want to.
UPDATE
There’s a rumor going around. I don’t want to give it credence but we can’t just ignore it until we disprove it.
I Got Them Stupid Party Blues
Ohio’s Senate has taken clear, decisive action on suppressor reform, but the House has not finished the job. Senate Bill 214 passed the Senate by a decisive 31–1 vote, yet months later, the bill remains stalled in the House Public Safety Committee. [More]
Way to douse fire in gun voter bellies before the midterms!
California Dreamin’
The California Post was there as Federal SWAT teams sought their suspects in a series of predawn raids, targeting high-class criminals such as Dr. Hany Malek, 61, an allegedly armed-and-dangerous chiropractor accused of keeping an arsenal in his $2 million Tarzana mansion. [More]
But…but…but “Overall, California has the strongest gun safety laws in the nation and has been a trailblazer for gun safety reform for the past 30 years.”
Does this mean all it takes for none of them to work is a criminal not obeying them?

Last Appeal
“Those who stay away from the election think that one vote will do no good. ‘Tis but one step more to think one vote will do no harm.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Speaking of Adolescent Rescue Fantasies…
I can’t think of a more juvenile expectation than for an adult to think someone else is supposed to come save him and his, especially when the “Only Ones” can’t get there in time, dither when they do, and have a prime directive to make it home at the end of their shift. [Watch]
I didn’t get from the short who that absurd douche who believes himself to be an authority is– anybody know? I ain’t done with him.

We’re the Only Ones Playing Right Into Democrat Hands Enough
WT livin’ F?
There is no excuse for this and plenty of continuum of force arrest options that don’t begin with potentially lethal or long-term disability-inducing assault and battery.
With all the bad ICE press happening, especially right before midterms, somebody thought leaving this masked thug off the leash was a fine idea? Nobody there smart enough to understand that cameras– and hatred for their agency — are everywhere, and this visually bolsters everything the leftists are saying about them?
This violent m**********r needs to not just be fired, but arrested and prosecuted. And tested for ‘roid rage substances.
Most disappointing of all– Facebook “conservatives” cheering this on. Talk about a mob that has no conception of a Bill of Rights culture and confirms the brown shirt accusations. If this were an enforcer for a Democrat administration, they’d be the first ones screaming and then going for a lawyer.

We’re the Only Ones Pyromaniacal Enough

The Blue Path
Another of the interminable political spam texts just received:
Yeah, we know Husted’s a squish.
We also know the election will be binary and from how much he’s got to spend and all credible polling, Redpath knows that too, so he knows his run is a spoiler and everything he takes away will work in “Gun Sense Candidate” Sherrod Brown’s favor.
And as for his being such a 2A pal, he also knows his suicidal immigration platform will undo it all:
The same goes for “straightforward and clear lawful path to citizenship” Governor candidate Donald Kissick, whose run will only benefit Everytown pick Amy Acton.
Then again, how can we blame them if our own “gun influencers” refuse to admit the truth?
None Dare Call It Treason
According to a Department of Homeland Security press release, the Maryland wokies were trying to protect the MS-13 member accused of raping a child from being taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). In Democrat-controlled cities, counties, and states, officials and judges will often release the most dangerous and vile illegal alien criminals after ICE files detainer requests for them. Their ideology is so perverse that they find it more important to undermine ICE than to ensure that illegal alien criminals face justice and are incapable of harming more Americans. [More]
I do wonder how many of their victims are within Democrat constituencies.
