Life Imitates ‘Art’

“After six years of working as a museum curator—at a small, a mid-size, and, currently, a very large institution—I’ve learned how nefarious the culture of white supremacy in art museums really is,” she wrote. “The PTSD from racial trauma that many of my BIPOC colleagues and I are carrying is a clear indication that art museums are absolutely not in solidarity with BIPOC people and their communities as they claim to be.” [More]

Interesting, that she quotes a communist whose “guns…were used in an armed takeover of a courtroom in Marin County, California, in which four people were killed.”

What’s her beef again? That her comrades haven’t established a totalitarian black BIPOC Marxist regime that can give white “progressives” in the art community the Pol Pot “intellectuals” treatment they’re stupidly volunteering themselves for?

Can We All Get Along?

Received via email:

We’re sharing some advice for those challenging conversations with family members around the dinner table. We believe there are ways to discuss politics that include others and make them feel heard, not alienated. Check out our post below for a few tips on how to have conflict-free gatherings. [More]

Stop demanding to sic the jackboots on us to disarm us by force and we’ll get along just fine.

No matter how much 97percent tries to present itself as the “reasonable” alternative to find “common ground,” their supporters show they just can’t control their militant hostility.

Cat Got Your Young?

“I don’t want anything bad to happen to P-22,” said Jimenez. “I just want people to be safe out there so that nothing like this happens again.” [More]

You can’t have one without the other, pal. Especially now that it knows humans are no deterrent.

Take care of the problem or wait for the “Only Ones” to do it and a child will be next. Time was the sheriff would have led a posse of armed volunteers to eliminate the threat.

We’re the Only Ones Threatening Enough

“That’s when Agent Mike turned around and told me that, in their experience, nothing ever happens to people that don’t talk about these things,” [More]

How can we learn more about the impressed-with-his-own-ominousness “Agent Mike”?

I have an AmmoLand article on Hunter’s laptop that’s been in draft form for over a month– we’re still working on ironing out some wrinkles. Hopefully, that will happen sooner rather than later.

Don’t Look at Me. Last Game I Played was Pong.

Yet a closer inspection of Activision Blizzard’s key staff and their connections to state power, as well as details gleaned from documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, reveal that Call of Duty is not a neutral first-person shooter, but a carefully constructed piece of military propaganda, designed to advance the interests of the U.S. national security state. [More]

Lemme know when the object is to take out “the greatest threat.”

I don’t have time to look into it, but I’d be curious to know if the Activision honchos hold the mutually exclusive positions of saying video games don’t influence real-world behavior and MAGA rhetoric causes violent hate attacks.

The Relative Silence is Explained

The public defenders for the suspect in the mass shooting at a Colorado Springs LGBTQ nightclub said in a Tuesday night court filing obtained by a New York Times reporter that their client is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns. [More]

Did someone say “self-loathing“?

There goes the narrative!

UPDATES

To make matters more confusing, the guy who beat him up was apparently straight.

Terms of Surrender

New York Attorney General Letitia James today cracked down on online ammunition sellers illegally shipping ammunition to New York residents and failing to keep records of these sales. An investigation by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) found that 39 ammunition sellers have been shipping ammunition directly to New York residents in violation of New York’s SAFE Act, which prohibits direct online sales of ammunition to New York residents. Attorney General James sent cease and desist orders to these ammunition sellers demanding that they stop shipping ammunition directly to New York and warned them of serious legal consequences if they continue to violate New York’s law. [More]

The maniac doesn’t presume to rule just New Yorkers.

So: Which ammo dealers are still selling to the state?

We’re the Only Ones Further Endangering You Enough

When the NCPD found out that the woman seeking a concealed carry permit because she feared for her life didn’t notify the NCPD Pistol License Section of her 911 call, they promptly stopped the background investigation and suspended her pistol permit. They proceeded to confiscate her firearms, including her long guns. [More]

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

America’s deadly gun culture: Over 600 mass shootings in one year [More]

Funny… when I think of the phrase “gun culture,” I think of the millions of members of the NRA, GOA, SAF, etc., that is, the most heavily armed citizen population on the planet that is also demonstrably the most peaceable.

So it’s not the guns.

The problem with those responsible for murder is they are beyond being simply uncultured.

Of course, those responsible for blaming good Americans for the predations of evil know that — well, maybe not the “authorized journalists,” who as a whole have proven ignorant, biased, and lazy, but certainly the cold and calculating minds giving them all the narrative talking points to parrot.

It Takes a Commune

An expert on “feminist, trans and queer politics and philosophy,” scholar Sophie Lewis on Nov. 16 spoke at UMass Boston at an event named after her October 2022 book, “Abolish the Family: A Manifesto for Care and Liberation.” [More]

A Tom Petty line comes to mind.

Funny… I don’t see where her bio says how many children she has successfully raised.

You just knew there was going to be a cat in there somewhere…

Stop Me if You’ve Heard This One Before

More than three weeks after losing a reelection bid, President Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday blamed a software bug and demanded the electoral authority annul votes cast on most of Brazil’s nation’s electronic voting machines, though independent experts say the bug doesn’t affect the reliability of results. [More]

“Baseless,” right?

Now, this would be something:

“Brazilian Military is Just Waiting for Bolsonaro to Give the Order to Arrest Corrupt Communist Judge”

It kind of explains why our rulers have focused so intently on woke generals.

Regardless, it looks like a critical mass of Brazilians isn’t just going to roll over for Lula’s planned citizen disarmament.

We need to be able to say the same and be on our guard against the renewed divide-and-conquer strategy of spawning woke gun owners.

It’s Conclusion-Jumping Time

Walmart employee in Chesapeake, Virginia kills 6 with pistol, police say [More]

“Pistol”? Not “AR-15-style rifle”?

No matter. They want them all.

And naturally, “The employee has not been identified as police say they have yet to contact his next of kin.”

It’s not like he’s the victim here, and how many hours has it been? My immediate question is what kind of internet trail did he leave, and is it being brushed over as we speak?

We still don’t know much about the Colorado Springs moron, either, except they couldn’t get him on a bomb threat rap, some desperately want to establish a MAGA connection, and the information gatekeepers evidently don’t want anything that might conflict with that insinuation coming to the fore.

UPDATES

He wasn’t a white supremacist.

There are still too many low-information ignoramuses out there willing to swallow whatever bilge the antis are pumping into them.

It’s up to each of us to be force multipliers and share the truth within our spheres of influence.

But it’s OK because they know love is love and whitey is racist.

And speaking of registries, a section of my recent Firearms News piece on braces also outlines some pretty pathetic details about the incompetent recordkeeping for the NFRTR.
