Insurance Fraud

Some insurance companies currently offer different types of coverage for firearm liability under homeowner, umbrella and renter policies because there is not a specific exclusion. However, most insurers do not offer separate stand-alone gun liability coverage and no insurer would provide coverage for illegal or “criminal” acts, such as mass shootings. [More]

So what we’re talking about is a special punishment tax for the “law-abiding” being fraudulently offered as a sop against violent crime.

Knowing what kind of rights swindlers are behind it could have told us that.

Days before violence broke out at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, a U.S. Capitol Police captain ordered the confiscation of dozens of riot helmets from officers without the knowledge of Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund… [More]

This is starting to read more and more like a conspiracy movie script.

We’re the Only Ones Inciting Enough

Congressman Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) says the authenticated GoPro video raises the question of why police officers, who were identified as intelligence officers, were working to stir up the crowd of protesters instead of working to stop an assault on the Capitol. [More]

How’s the Nuremberg excuse go? We were only following orders…?

If the truth is ever known it will show government provocateurs were way more influential in spurring action than Stewart Rhodes ever was.

Just One Little Compromise…?

But now the left is buzzing with talk of a “deal” to bring the Republicans back in exchange for the Republicans folding on personally made firearms, what the left calls “ghost guns.” [More]

Fold on anything and that’s one less obstacle they need to overcome on their way to everything.

Anyone who doesn’t realize we’re dealing with lying devils who want it all is willfully deluded.

For the Children

Toddler dies in accidental shooting with unsecured gun… This comes just a few months after the new safe storage laws, [More]

Go gun laws!

Funny, how they’re light on all the details that would show this is not your typical American household, but instead focus on the calculated misrepresentation and lie that “According to the CDC guns are the number one cause of death in American children.”

Oh, look: Children!

Wayne’s Marauders

“I have a message tonight for Merrick Garland and Jack Smith and Joe Biden — and the guys back there in the fake news media, you should listen up as well, this one is for you,” Ms. Lake said. “If you want to get to President Trump, you are going to have go through me, and you are going to have to go through 75 million Americans just like me. And I’m going to tell you, most of us are card-carrying members of the N.R.A.” [More]

And many of us are Wine Club members!

Or shouldn’t we believe that people who can’t even elect a new board can impact the fate of the government?

Didn’t Oath Keepers say essentially the same thing about the vote certification?

So what’s this, defeatist language?

No, I’m just saying Kati Lake shouldn’t involve others in her grandstanding, particularly when she has been powerless to do anything but make noise about Arizona. And I’m the NRA. I’ll decide when and if to answer a muster call, and I’m not 100% on having the back of someone who so often doesn’t have mine.

It sounds more to me like she’s bucking for a Vice President spot on a ticket we might not see happen.

Besides, if and when things go kinetic, expect it to be unexpected.

Not Government-Approved

He certainly doesn’t sound like he was very smart about it.

We’re the Only Ones Fossilized Enough

Law enforcement officials join ‘coal country’ in snubbing Republicans, backing Dem governor for re-election – More than 35 sheriffs and police chiefs endorsed Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear for a second term [More]

The short-term self-interested tools don’t realize that Democrats will give their politicians a pass on specific issues strictly as a matter of overall party power on the rest of the agenda.

Their betrayal will come soon enough. Meanwhile, they’re betraying the rest of their countrymen.

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?

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…?

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.
