We’re the Only Ones Truthful Enough

A bill Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw introduced Friday could streamline Border Patrol’s hiring process by eliminating the polygraph requirement for some candidates with law enforcement or military credentials. [More]

Because nothing says “more trustworthy than you” like being an “Only One.”

This Crenshaw character certainly has proved to be a continual disappointment.

The Journalistic Turd in the Punch Bowl

Women are buying more guns, though studies suggest self-defense use is rare… A Harvard University analysis found people defended themselves with a gun in less than 1% of crimes from 2007 to 2011. More recently, a Stanford University study of 17.6 million Californians found that people who lived with handgun owners but did not own a gun themselves died by homicide more than twice as often as their gun-free neighbors. [More]

If what they say is true, NRA families must be self-destructing at an astonishing rate.

Somebody at Faux News decided it was important to offset reality by citing “statistics” and talking points from people who want to ban guns. Nothing like assigning such stories to a self-described “cat lady.”

An Explosive Situation

Officials investigate mysterious disappearance of 30-Ton shipment of explosive chemicals in California [More]

So Chuck Schumer’s proposed taggant mandate would have worked about as well as tracing guns back to their original purchasers?

The question now becomes “Who has them?”

Enemy foreign open border opportunists or an FBI/ “white nationalist” low-hanging fruit joint venture…?

And Now a Word from the Plantation Party

‘Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals,’ states the advisory issued on Saturday night by the civil rights group. [More]

Well, yeah, they up and elected a “white supremacist.”

Since when do we call hate mongers “civil rights groups”? And who decided the rest of us have to go through the absurd motion of saying “people of color”?

By driving them to the Democrats, “middle man” Derrick Johnson is filling a time-“honored” role…

Tot Shot

3-year-old shoots 2 people in Lafayette, who was wanted for murder [More]

I can’t tell you how many times that happened at my house when feral sons Uday and Qusay were growing up.

Thank goodness “safe storage laws,” or in Indiana’s case, a Class C felony for “dangerous control of a child/firearm” charge, will keep these things from happening in high-risk (criminal) homes!

What I Owe

A local resident told the Tampa City Council Thursday that the cost of reparations in the city should be “$3 million per person.” [More]

There’s a word for forcing other people to work to create wealth for you…

What’s this “resident” crap? You speak at city council meetings you fill out a card and it’s public record, although it looks like they want to make finding minutes as nonintuitive as possible.

Who is this stupid communist POS racist @$$hole? I’d like to tell him what he can kiss.

Forbidden Knowledge

5 Things the Left Does NOT Want You to Know About the 2nd Amendment [More]

I suppose we could all come up with our own list. I’d have added they don’t want you to know it’s an individual right, that it’s the most egalitarian power-sharing arrangement ever devised, and that “in common use at the time” arms are the ones in common use by police and soldiers as well as by “sportsmen.”
