Triple Con

Neocons in the 80s and 90s used to warn people off of the CoS rout always bringing up the runaway convention argument. Amendments proposed by the CoS still have to be ratified by 38 states, thus killing worries for runaway conventions. We all know congress will NEVER vote to limit themselves, so lets try a CoS. We are already quickly headed down the path the late great Mike Vanderboegh warned us about repeatedly. [More]

I’d be careful about invoking Vanderboegh’s name to make your case.

As for the “38 states” redirect/deferral, I see nobody’s considering what’s happening all around us, every day, with no end in sight…

Much Ado About What, Exactly?

Texas congressman proposes DNA testing to determine illegal alien’s family ties to a minor [More]

How many millions is that going to cost us?

After the test, will they all still stay in this country living on the tax cows’ dime anyway, the adults who don’t escape their court dates in prison and the children awaiting the opening of that “pathway to citizenship”?

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.”* And I have that on good authority.

I don’t suppose immediate return to Mexico with the message “These people are your problem” is in anybody’s cards…?

* I had to use an Internet Archive link– what happened to the Saviors…?

Newsom Goes Full Orwell with 28th Amendment to Gut 2nd

In other words, they’ll be able to enact any damn ban they want to, up to and including a total prohibition on “civilians” owning guns… [More]

But “no one’s talking about taking your guns,” right?

Delegated Authority

This mailer was sent to me by longtime WarOnGuns Correspondent Mack H, who is of the opinion that primary competitor Marie March is the better RKBA choice:

I’m not in a position to weigh in, so leave it to those of you who are to make your case in comments, below, if you’re so inclined.

I will say it’s refreshing to see candidates competing on who is most pro-RKBA.

Missing the Obvious

The order included a finding “Rahimi had ‘committed family violence’ and such violence was ‘likely to occur again in the future.’” [More]

Define “likely.”

If he was truly proven dangerous why didn’t the order remand him into custodial care until such time as he can once more be trusted to behave his punk @$$?

An Air of Disbelief

“The Toronto Sun has learned Quebec police are investigating the possibility that the smoke creating poor air quality in southern Ontario and making downtown skylines disappear may have been the result of arson… This narrative has not made as many headlines — and is polar opposite to what the likes of U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer and Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez and Environment Minister Steven Guibeault have been saying.” [More]

If you think they’re misdirecting now, wait ’til they find out the perp is one of their fellow environmentalcases or a “refugee”!

We’re the Only Ones Getting the Shaft Enough

Police claim Officer Marcellis Blackwell arrested a 37-year-old man that day, placed handcuffs on him, and drove him to a secluded part of the campus. Blackwell then put his hands down the victim’s pants without their consent and while he was still handcuffed. [More]

Meanwhile, Crickets

Intestacy laws establish an order of priority for the inheritance of a diseased person’s assets. If the courts accept their position, it would skirt state law, which generally considers materials such as the manifesto a record of public interest… [More]

All this legal hoop-de-doo continues to obfuscate and delay. I still want to know why a Nashville Council member said “The vast, overwhelming majority of it,’ presented too much of a danger to the public.”

But that would require principled leadership focused more on results than on scoring media points.

And that allows the blood dancers to keep the focus on guns.

The War on Truth

This war directed against Americans’ minds has been raging for quite some time. What is different today is its pace and brazenness. Lies about Russia collusion, COVID, vaccine effectiveness, climate change, Biden family corruption, impartial justice, biological sex, American history, border security, debt sustainability, crime rates, gun safety, banking solvency, military engagements, racial disparities, religious doctrine, Western civilization, childhood development, healthy obesity, government surveillance, hydrocarbon energy, human slavery, acclaimed literature, anthropology — no topic is off limits for those who manipulate the public for a living. [More]

At least we know which master they serve.

And Thank You for Your Service?

“Having a US military background is the single-strongest individual-level predictor of whether a subject . . . is classified as a mass casualty offender,” the study by Maryland’s National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) said. [More]

What it doesn’t say is what commonalities offenders share before enlisting. It also presupposes risks are evenly distributed rather than concentrated into observable subsets.

I can’t help but make the seemingly unrelated analogies that violent crime is not widespread but concentrated, and Trump is so good at firing people because he’s so lousy at hiring them.

We’re the Only Ones Overpowered Enough

A California man who was caught on video pummeling a sheriff’s deputy and shooting at her with her own gun in 2019 was found not guilty of attempted murder and other charges by a jury, with the victim saying the decision sets a bad precedent for law enforcement. [More]

You know what else sets a bad precedent in situations that can escalate to physical violence?

Not that morbidly obese men are any better.
