Where Angels Fear to Tread

A shocking example of Western countries’ suicidal policies, and a warning regarding our own “sanctuary cities,” is provided by the Swedish “no-go” zones—parallel societies in suburban areas where crime runs rampant, and the police are afraid to intervene. [More]

If only the Founders had envisioned some way to provide for the security of a free State…

We’re the Only Ones Ditching Enough

Former L.A. County Sheriff Ditches Democrat Party: ‘Joining the Party of Faith, Family, and Freedom’ [More]

Just what Republicans need, another gungrabbing Vichycon:

In an interview with the Los Angeles Airport Peace officer’s association on Nov 11, 2021, LA county Sheriff Alex Villanueva Said if he could he would ban the sale of all Semi-Automatic rifles with detachable magazines.

Permits… getcher permits…

We’re the Only Ones Destructive Enough

Since the day I took office, the NYPD has seized more than 21,400 illegal firearms — and last week, I was able to help send many of these confiscated weapons to their final destination — a wood chipper that destroyed these guns so they can never be used to cause harm again. [More]

We’re the Only Ones Compensated Enough

Mayor John Whitmire has finalized a contract agreement with the Houston Police Officers’ Union to raise the salary of first-year police officers to $81,000. The agreement, which also includes expanded benefits, will make Houston’s 5,200 police officers the highest-paid in Texas. Previously, officers’ first-year salary was set around $60,000. [More]

That’s a heck of a raise. When’s the last time a private company offered you that kind of increase?

And since this is WarOnGuns, we might ask how Whitmire is on our issue.

He’s fine for expanding them for “Only Ones” to allow armed children on the force. That’s what the citizen disarmament lobby calls them, especially when they want to exclude 18 to 20-year-olds from the Second Amendment, right?

And then there’s what he had in mind for you…

If It Looks Like a Gunquack and Walks Like a Gunquack

You’ve got certifications that establish your credentials and qualifications to diagnose and prescribe in this field, don’t you, Annie? Otherwise, aren’t you abusing your medical accreditation to assume false authority, isn’t that flat-out malpractice, and doesn’t that make you a fraud?

All Hat and No Prattle

A Michigan school did not violate the free-speech rights of a third-grade student who was told to remove a hat that had an image of an AR-15-style rifle and the message “come and take it” in capital letters, a federal court said Friday. [More]

I’m probably going to take the unpopular view here and say the parents knew what the dress code was and let their kid be the one to take the heat for their views by challenging school policy over an issue they’re hardly developed enough to understand beyond a superficial level.

I would not have allowed either of my sons to wear that hat to school for that reason, and also because it was my job as their father to minimize risks where I could, including now the child will have to deal with the fallout from other students and teachers, and it will follow him through the system until he graduates.

There’s a reason I have never named my sons beyond the created-for-effect “feral sons Uday and Qusay,” and never posted current photos of them. Choices I have made carry repercussions and even dangers, and those are mine to bear, not my family’s. That’s also why I deliberately kept a low profile on local politics.

Change my mind.

Everybody Ready for a Real ‘War on Drugs’?

Mexican president declines Trump’s offer of US troops to help fight drug cartels [More]

She’s right, but for the wrong reasons. If she allowed it, her corrupt government would cease to allow her.

I’m against it for the same reason I’ve consistently been against wars that our representatives have not declared– as required by the Constitution.

Surely, someone has factored in the likelihood of a sufficient percentage of the tens of millions embedded throughout the Republic becoming even more radicalized and adopting assymetric warfare tactics, e.g., “terrorism” wherever unhardened targets present themselves, that is, practically everywhere. Can we see the projections?

If the decision IS war, then anything other than real war will be a betrayal of those we order to put their bodies and their lives on the line on our behalf. And in this case, it would be impossible to “just” target cartels without also going after their stooges at all levels of the Mexican government.
