What’s the Point of Even Having Rules?

Doesn’t anybody read campus policies anymore?

FOP and IACP Show ‘Only Ones’ Arrogance Opposing Gun Reciprocity for All

And sadly, it’s hardly an unexpected reaction from the FOP and IACP, with long histories of endorsing infringements. [More]

These LEOSA beneficiaries really expect us to “back the blue” after demanding infringements on our right to keep and bear arms?

Interesting (to me, anyway) story on the graphic– within an hour of submitting my draft to Firearms News, I got the above FOP solicitation in the mail. I did a scan and sent it to editor Vince DeNiro, telling him I was going to print out my article after it was posted and return it to them in their envelope, with a few choice words, instead of a donation.

I had no idea he was going to use my scan as the article illustration and literally burst out laughing when I saw he’d used it.

I Have a Feeling We’re Not in Philadelphia Anymore

8 teen football players arrested for retail theft at Dick’s Sporting Goods, miss championship game: PCSO [More]

Well, couldn’t happen to a nicer store, but that’s it? They’re going to miss the game?

Grady Judd is doing what he can, but the school, for starters, ought to expel them. And make them work to pay back expenses for sending them there.

With ‘Leadership’ Like This…

St. Louis County advocates push for ‘Save Lives Now’ program to address gun violence… Community advocates are urging for expanded programs that integrate conflict intervention, mental health services, and community support to prevent such incidents. [More]

Throw more money at it… when hasn’t that worked?

And Danielle Spradley’s “solution” is be more like Baltimore?

A Question I’m Almost Embarrassed to Ask

4 adults, teen arrested in Santa Ana shooting that killed 13-year-old, injured 3 others… After a three-month investigation, detectives identified five suspects: Martin Eusebio, 20; Joaquin Uvalle, 19; Angel Diaz, 19; Dan Mejia, 29; and a 15-year-old juvenile whose name has not been released due to his age. [More]

Thank goodness there’s no other relevant information to share.

There isn’t is there?

The Wrong Question

You can debate federal policy all you want. But when your city faces a crime crisis, the question becomes simple: Will you accept help or grandstand while people suffer? [More]

That doesn’t change the fact that when seconds count, police — or agents — are minutes away.

Will you accept infringements on your right to protect yourself?

And don’t forget, both cities are run by Democrats/MAIG members, with the ones in Memphis doing their “best” to undermine TN permitless carry and preemption.

We’re the Only Ones Ice-Breaking Enough

Minneapolis Police Chief Warns Officers ‘They’ll Be Fired’ if They Do Not Stop ICE’s ‘Unlawful Force [More]

Maybe they can get advice on how to recognize it from Mohammed Noor.

Gun-grabber Brian O’Hara posing as a defender of rights is par for the gaslighting course. What he’s doing here sounds justified and reasonable to anyone who takes it at face value, but he knows exactly what he’s doing — setting up officers to have their bias trigger interference and create exploitable headlines, not to mention danger to all-in harm’s way. He’s hoping that will cause hesitancy uncertainty, and unwillingness. And if a pawn gets taken off the board, well…

The ICE PTB had best be ensuring their troops have bulletproof protocols and things going sideways scenarios drilled into them.

‘Stand Your Ground’ Recalls Nightmare Ordeal After Lawful Self-Defense

We know that something similar to what was forced on him, where we suddenly find ourselves having to defend ourselves against a previously unknown threat, could happen when we least expect it. And we know that police and prosecutors will often be personally and politically incentivized to treat us like criminals, and to interpret events to support their interests rather than ours. [More]

It could happen to you.

Meanwhile, Over in the City of David…

The Archdiocese of Boston reportedly slammed the Nativity scene at a Dedham church that replaced Jesus, Mary, and Joseph with a sign that said “ICE was here” to protest federal immigration action. [More]

Seems Scripturally ignorant, too, as the family was there for the census requiring registration at people’s ancestral homes.

Who is it exactly that Marxist priests worship?

No Citizens Need Apply

But believing in the “Great Replacement” (along with the “pernicious” lie that “there is an ‘invasion’ at the U.S.-Mexico border of immigrants who are poised to change the demographic nature of the country”) is racist?

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue“!

The Going Rate

AP: ‘Experts’ Warn that 2-Year, 44% Decline in Mass Killings Is Not Necessarily Cause for Optimism [More]

How that squares with all those new gun owners is left unsaid.

Still, they have a point. And it won’t take all that much to affect rates, especially as hatred against traditional Americans is being ratcheted up and at some point the restraints are gonna come off.
