Flintstones, Meet the Flintstones

Cop28 president says there is ‘no science’ behind demands for phase-out of fossil fuels… UAE’s Sultan Al Jaber says phase-out of coal, oil and gas would take world ‘back into caves’ [More]

Yeah, that’s part of the plan.

No worries though.

The bosses will still live large.

To All Intents and Purposes

The Supreme Court’s 2022 decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen found that a central part of New York’s licensing process, requiring a special need to obtain a concealed-carry permit, violated the Second Amendment. Because of this, Rivera reasoned, New York can no longer presume that everyone who possesses an unlicensed firearm intends to use it illegally. [More]

The presumption ought to be that licenses are illegal.

History Repeats Itself

Woods on steroids… Paging Rosemary Woods on steroids…

This is what seditious conspiracy looks like.

Including the fact that it isn’t everybody’s front-page news.

Just Here for the Ratio

The GOSAFE Act is an innovative bill that would regulate assault weapons & high-capacity magazines. Thank you @SenatorHeinrich, @SenAngusKing , @SenMarkKelly , and @SenatorBennet for championing it. Weapons of war don’t belong on our streets. Let’s get it done. [More]

Aside from some effete lump who reposts Taylor Swift tweets, it doesn’t sound like too many people are impressed…

As for Mark Kelly, he’s still got some questions to answer.

A Cut Above

Anti-Israel students were running around on campus at University of California Los Angeles @UCLA yesterday, brandishing knives while cutting down posters of Israeli civilians kidnapped by Hamas. Is it normal for students to carry large knives on campus? [More]

Not according to the campus cops:

You can have a knife, such as a pocket knife, as long as the blade is not more than 2 1/2 inches long, it does not open automatically and has only one sharp edge.

But they’re primarily there to make sure Americans who believe in the Second Amendment are unarmed.
