The Power to Destroy

“California effectively seeks the power to destroy the exercise of a constitutional right by singling it out for special taxation,” the lawsuit alleges. “If this tax is permitted, there is nothing stopping California from imposing a 50% or even 100% tax on a constitutional right it disfavors whether it be the right to keep and bear arms, the right to free exercise of religion, or any other right.” [More]

Just like if one gun a month is good, one gun a year is better!

Or if a three-day waiting period…

Here’s the complaint.

The Company They Keep

https://archive.is/bziHvFun Fact: Did you know that the same investigators used by Everytown are the same as the ones used by Harvey Weinstein? (Kroll/K2)

Me:

The ones who broke state laws?

TM :

Yup. Ties to a guy named Richard Plansky.

It makes sense if you think about it– Weinstein wanted gun owners to “regret being alive.”

We’re the Only Ones Dry Firing Enough

Tangentially related, I remember years ago some guy on Facebook challenged my pointing out “James Bond’s” booger hook on the bang switch, saying he’s friends with a Tier 1 operator and they are so well trained they don’t need to follow that rule.

Operation Choke Point Redux

Section 13 states the prohibited uses, where users would agree not to request, send, or receive money for several things. “Obviously, some I get,” she said. “The illegal drugs and controlled substances make sense, but firearms, ammunition, and other weapons, or materials that promote intolerance, violence or hate, in whose definition and what does that mean, a Ponzi scheme or pyramid scheme? Again, I don’t know what that means.” [More]

From the Newsraper of Record

New York Times columnist John McWhorter has shown us this again recently by wishing someone would assassinate Donald Trump. [More]

And remember: Trump is just an avatar for the voters who support the promises he so imperfectly delivers on. If Trump is “a hideous pig of a man,” what must a rabid MAGAite be? And we know what such dehumanization allows.

This genocidal provincial bigot would prefer we all were eliminated. By somebody else, of course.

Considering the source’s “text, history, and tradition,” who’s surprised?

And why do Bill Clinton’s Rules of Engagement come to mind?
