Correlation ≠ Causation

Yesterday’s school shooting was devastating. But remember, because we organized and acted, we passed legislation in 2022 making major changes to American gun laws. And this year, mass shootings have dropped by a whopping 20% from last year. That’s a big deal, and reason for hope. [More]

Now flesh that out for us. Show your work, your data, and the equations used to reach that conclusion.

You know, prove it.

Can anyone truly be ignorant enough to believe an in-your-face logical fallacy like this without even looking at, let alone understanding the evidence? And if they know he’s lying about this and voted for him anyway, what does that say about them?

What an @$$hole Chris Murphy is.

Call Roto-Reuters, That’s the Name

The Biden Admin paid Reuters over $300 million in government contracts. 11 different Biden government agencies targeted Elon’s businesses. All 11 agencies paid millions to Reuters. Reuters then won the Pulitzer Prize for “their work on Elon Musk and misconduct at his businesses” [More]

This is my shocked face.

I always put as much faith in their fidelity as I did in Roxanne Pulitzer’s:

So far Pulitzer or his witnesses have testified that Roxanne, 31, went to bed with a local real estate salesman, a French baker, a Belgian race-car driver, the beautiful young wife of a handsome old Kleenex heir, an alleged drug dealer and a supernatural trumpet. That’s right, trumpet. There are charges of drug use. And menages a trois. And incest. And death threats.

But what does #justablogger know, except that we just don’t hate the media enough?

Request to Expedite

The 2A Attorneys in Gray v. Jennings Delaware “assault weapon” ban litigation have filed a submission to SCOTUS as the three AR-15/Magazine ban cases continue their move through the Court’s consideration process. Mark Smith Four Boxes Diner discusses. [Watch]

That’s a counterpoint to this.

January sounds like the month we’ll learn either way if this and related cases will be considered/consolidated or punted again.

This is an invasion supported by a foreign government.

Girl Power!

Homeowner’s Daughter Shoots Alleged Intruder Dead [More]

Based on their own propaganda, the grabbers would rather have seen her brutally slain than have a gun in the house. Preferably shot to death so they could add to their one-sided “statistics”…

I’m reminded of a line I used years ago that shows the difference between them and we whom they brand as paternalistic throwbacks:

What a rabbit you seem compared to the free and confident armed women whom secure and trusting men cherish and admire.

Good ones are out there. To find and then hold onto one, first be true to yourself.

Plan B Has Its Attractions, Too

Bernie Sanders Says Biden Should Consider Preemptive Pardons for January 6 Committee Members [More]

I’ll forego my wish if GOP House Oversight and Senate Judiciary straps ’em on and forces them to testify so the extent of what they suppressed, who they communicated with and about what, gets exposed.

That could be nmore dangerous for some of them than an Epstein cell.

I Don’t Know Art But I Know What I Like

The banana “art” post was the tip of the iceberg. Enter cheese that goes crunch.

Leave it to Hunter Biden to find a way to turn laundering well-heeled Democrat support into an art form. And it turns out not enough people are appreciating the “art” of millionaire commie Jim Carrey to make ends meet.

Not to be outdone and wanting in on the action, regular WarOnGuns Correspondent Steve T has an entry of his own. Feel free to offer bids below.

Refuse to Be a Victim (NSFW)

I doubt this will do any good, but nobody takes a swing like this at me without an old-fashioned Romanian response.

It’s an old scam with no potential to be funny, like the last one. Pieces of steaming excrement like this loser are among the lowest, and I suspect there’s nothing wrong with him I couldn’t fix with my hands.

For the Children

What incapable rabbits they make our politicians, “educators,” gun-grabbers, and parents who fall for the avoidance lies look like.

Meanwhile, Argentina is begining to face adult responsibilities.

So, while other parts of the world are reacquainting themselves with reality, U.S. Democrat enclaves in the land of the Second Amendment are on a neverending “whack-a-mole gun control” quest to undermine the right and return the people to the serfdom their ancestors fled, all in the name of “progressivism.”

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word ‘Bipartisan’ Is

“In 2000, before the general election, I introduced a bipartisan resolution to amend the Constitution and abolish the Electoral College.” [More]

How could it have been “bipartisan” if the only co-sponsor was a Democrat and it was never voted on?

My Kind of Razzmatazz

“The vice mayor, a guy named Alderman Burnett, convicted of bank robbery, armed robbery, spent time in jail, he’s getting paid in addition to his aldermanic salary almost half a mil to be ‘vice mayor,’ which essentially has no duties or responsibilities other than waiting to possibly become mayor if something were to happen to Mayor Johnson,” Kelly said. [More]

The servants throw the people out of their house– talk about disenfranchising voters. It’s hard to believe they elected a bigger dolt than Lori Lightfoot, but forget it, Jake, it’s Chi-Town.

The “Chicago Flips Red” T’s are an encouraging sign, but they need to get organized. That’d be a good inroad in terms of making RKBA one of their voting considerations. On the other hand, the guy holding the “Refuse to Accept a Fascist America” banner seems mad because illegals are competitors for the plunder and cut into his share, which means his faction is culpable for giving power to scoundrels and morons and will continue to do so.

Still, if it stirs up Democrat division, that’s a silver lining, especially since the screaming Cultural Marxists turn off everyone who’s not.

Don’t let the propaganda saying otherwise sway you. Over-regulation is a public health problem, especially with the stresses making earning a living or keeping a business open harder. I suspect if you did a study, you’d find the same results for shortened lifespans as Dr. Lott found about homicides, and that makes it look like it applies to the entire population.

Gun Owner Wishlist for Trump Administration

THE KNOX REPORT: Project 2025, The Second Amendment Edition [More]

Some of it can happen, others are problematic, especially with “Republicans” like Brian Fitgzpatrick and Susan Collins.

This is the first I’m hearing of the “Green G” system and I’m intrigued. I’m not clear on how BIDS would violate privacy any more than that, especially since a check wouldn’t be run unless the person asked for it and it would create no record of the gun purchased– and there lies the rub. The intent of the fraudulent prior restraint infringement is much more than a mere “background check,” and tyrants won’t give up that kind of power without a credible “or else” attached to it.
