Beyond Wonderland

Two people were killed and three others injured in a shooting at campgrounds near an electronic dance music (EDM) festival at the Gorge Amphitheatre in Quincy, Wash. Saturday night. The shooter was among the three injured. The shooter was taken into custody after they fired “randomly” into a crowd at the overflow campsite starting at around 8:25 p.m. [More]

So much for the Guidelines…

Ender Affirming Care

The state of Florida never provided medically necessary gender-affirming care to Duane Owen — causing her enormous suffering and violating her right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment for the more than 30 years she was in state custody. [More]

I wonder how much enormous suffering, rights violation, and cruel and unusual punishment this monster inflicted on the women he raped and murdered.

The ACLU certainly is showing us what it’s all about, and based on the ratioing, the more people see it, the better it appears to be.

Help Wanted

Call or email Iverson. Remind her that Republicans inspired a lot of admiration while they were standing up. Remind her that you matter and you are furious that she would allow you to become a felon for exercising your rights. Remind her that walking out on clearly unconstitutional legislation is not an option, it’s a duty. And remind her that doing the right thing is a lot cheaper than a lawsuit. [More]

Or do nothing so that she only hears from a handful and presumes it’s safe to ignore them.

Speaking of Sending Hither Swarms of Officers to Harass Our People…

During my visit to Highwood Creek Outfitters, I learned that the IRS confiscated all the 4473 forms from the store. This means that the sensitive personal information of any customer ever to purchase a firearm at Highwood Creek Outfitters is now in the hands of the IRS. These background check forms include no financial information, and there is no discernable reason why the IRS would need these forms. The IRS committed an egregious breach of privacy for Montana’s gun owners, and I am outraged that the agents involved showed no regard for federal law. Although there are still some murky details regarding the events at Highwood Creek Outfitters. There is no circumstance in which 4473’s would be necessary in an investigation spearheaded by the IRS.

I guess seizing records outright beats taking pictures with their phones. Funny, how this most significant piece of information got buried until the end of the “news” account…

A Commonsense Gun Safety Law Advocate

A 39-year-old South Florida man who is an ardent anti-gunner was sentenced last week to 15 months in federal prison and one year of probation for threatening U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colorado, in a series of social media posts that targeted the Congresswoman for her strong Second Amendment support. [More]

It’s almost like frustrated wannabe totalitarians aren’t rational or something…

Police Handwringing Over Ohio Permitless Gun Carry A Big Nothing Burger

That’s a version of the old and unfounded-in-reality “blood in the streets/Dodge City over fender benders” argument the gun prohibitionists used when railing against licensed concealed carry. And note his concern was not for “public safety” but for officer safety. [More]

Los Angeles City Council Arrests Point to ‘Criminals for Gun Control’ Mentality

“Curren Price is the latest member of the Los Angeles City Council to be arrested in recent years.” … “I am a firm believer in the control of guns, the restraint of guns, and the federal government’s proposal for the regulation of guns,” Curren told Our Weekly in 2013 in a report on the “Gun Culture on South L.A.” [More]

By collaborating with Hard Left Hakeem…

And notice they operate out of “Best Gold Standard” Santa Monica.

Meanwhile, Joe Walsh, Rob Pincus, Stephen Gutowski, and Amy Swearer are joining in to “legitimize” the Astroturfers and show how fair they are.

Clue: They’re not.
