Honestly.

The Fifth Circuit judges who ruled favorably were influenced by arguments formulated and advanced by two of its principals, firearms designer Len Savage and attorney Stamboulieh. [More]
Untangling the web, one sticky thread at a time…
CNN EXCLUSIVE ‘Something has to be done’: After decades of near-silence from the CDC, the agency’s director is speaking up about gun violence [More]
“Something must be done!”
Where have I heard THAT before?
I don’t suppose ol’ Rochelle has a rational answer to “What?”
And what’s with “decades of near silence“?

UPDATE
Well, I not only posted on an old story that’s a couple of years old but the very same story I cited in my above-linked AmmoLand piece. That’s what happens when I’m in a hurry, I guess…
Lancet Urges Shift Away from Human-Centered Health Care, ‘All Life Is Equal’ [More]
I know many vegetables that are quite clear on that point, sir.
Hence my “animaladjusted” neologism…
So will this mean when the takeover’s complete that we can’t even eat bugs?

In a triage waiting room of St. Louis Children’s Hospital in Missouri, a clear basket filled with gun locks sits near the walkway, just noticeable enough to those passing by. [More]
How ’bout another basket filled with Lego astronauts?

Katherine Clark’s tweet about ‘daughter’ Jared Riley Clark’s arrest for assaulting cop a REAL humdinger [More]
You’d think if the kid really wanted to rebel she’d be a Constitutionalist.
And how is “Democratic Whip” not racist?

And much more from our friends on the Anticommunism Action Team…
The bigger picture here is that some things are worth more than any amount of money—things like dignity, principles, and the ability to speak freely without asking permission from Ben Shapiro. [More]

“We won’t shy away”: Mayors are shaming gunmakers [More]
No, the only ones who are being shameful are these petty incompetent tyrants. I wonder if you did an analysis of criminal members of their population what the rate would be.
What the gun makers should be ashamed of is continuing to arm these tin-pot dictator’s enforcers.

Buehler claims they called the police, but they never showed up. The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department confirmed a call was made, but no report was filed. They said they would investigate it further. [More]

YouTube Censorship Of Suppressor Content & Wholesale Deletion of Creators [More]
Well, it’s not like the CEO came here for the liberty…
While it’s understandable and necessary to endorse uncensored alternatives like Rumble, the fact remains that I have accounts on Truth Social, Gab, and MeWe and don’t get anywhere near the admittedly limited exposure I get on Facebook and Twitter.
