Conversion ‘Therapy’

Rand says ATF should consider using its authority to reclassify certain types of firearms that are easily converted into fully automatic weapons, similar to what they did in the 1980s with the KG-9 and the MAC-10. Lots of firearms besides Glocks also are “readily convertible” into machine guns by using tools to reconfigure them or adding parts, she said. [More]

Like VPC has been signaling everyone since 1988:

The weapons’ menacing looks, coupled with the public’s confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons—anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun—can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons.

Anybody out there still foolish enough to believe the bump stock ban was about bump stocks?

Delay of Game

A perfect storm of personal issues, needed meat space work, and commitments to publishers means blogging here will have to wait.

I see dozens of emails were sent in over the weekend. I’ll get to reading and reacting to those when I can.

Please hold off on loading me up with more.

This is Intentional

Police told Fox Los Angeles they cannot do anything about the situation unless someone is blocking a sidewalk, active driveway or business. [More]

No property taxes, no permits– the city could shut this parasite down in a heartbeat on those and on health and safety violations if it wanted to.

The question here is why doesn’t it want to?

Return I Will to Old Brazil

Brazilian president-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva calls for ‘peace and unity’ after beating far-Right rival Jair Bolsonaro in knife-edge election that split the nation after millions cast their votes… but will the ‘Trump of the Tropics’ concede defeat? [More]

More to the point, will Brazilians who know better turn in their guns?

UPDATE

There may be more truth to that “Trump of the Tropics” reference than “progressives” care to admit.

The Guttenberg Press

Gun Safety advocate Fred Guttenberg calls Josh Hawley ‘a liar’ [Watch]

The first lie is that Fred advocates for gun safety. He advocates for citizen disarmament, and the MSNBC apparatchick daughter of a South Korean refugee welcomed into this country to enjoy its Constitutionally-mandated recognition of freedoms is overtly part of the team now undermining them.

It’s helpful seeing Fred take the mask off though and resort to logically fallacious ad hominem attacks. It puts the lie to his insistence with his 97percent partners that they’re all about dialog and coming together with gun owners. (And guess who else partners with them.)

I’m sorry for his horrible and unimaginable loss, but it’s not my fault. My natural human sympathy does not mean I will remain passive when he and other surviving family members attack my right to protect myself and my loved ones.

There Oughta be a Law!

Police: FBI background check blocked gun sale to accused St. Louis school shooter [More]

Another “Gotcha!” for the blood dancers?

Lost in the furious outrage being ginned up to demand more disarmament edicts is the fact that none of the Democrat constituents responsible for the day-in-day-out carnage would have passed a background check either.

Just Think of Them as Commonsense Global Arms Safety Laws

State Department working to prevent US weaponry in Ukraine from falling into the black market [More]

Like the government did in Afghanistan or like the government does here?

I’m just waiting for some to turn up at crime scenes in Mexico…

And don’t State and Ned Price have more important things to think about?

A Mugged Liberal

Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul Pelosi ‘violently assaulted’ in San Francisco home, spokesperson says – Pelosi spokesperson says ‘assailant is in custody,’ motivation for San Francisco break-in under investigation [More]

It would be a gift if he were a product of “progressive” policies who doesn’t fit the narrative. In the event that he’s not, my money is split between:

  • Low-hanging fruit they can establish a nebulous MAGA connection to, or
  • Someone they hired, a la Scorpio in Dirty Harry, to turn public opinion against Republicans…

UPDATES

Gee, I wonder why they took down the goofball’s Facebook page?

So naturally:

Women’s Group Says Attack on Pelosi “Did Not Come Out of Nowhere,” Blames Violent & Misogynist Rhetoric from GOP & Fox News, Amplified by Social Platforms

I guess the new limits on our freedom of speech is we can’t say anything in case it triggers some insane person.

Here’s one thing I don’t see anyone talking about– how’d the guy get in? I can’t believe security is that lax for the Speaker’s house. Is it wrong to wonder if he was initially invited?

A ‘Gun Sense’ Candidate

Democrats Are Running Young Radical for Michigan State House Who Was Arrested for Plotting School Shooting [More]

And doesn’t this tell us everything we need to know?

Reduce Youth Violence

Imhoff partnered with a local chapter of Everytown for Gun Safety|Moms Demand Action & Save Our Youth, which is an organization dedicated to reducing youth violence as well as violence against youth. After a devastating event where a local 14-year-old was killed due to gun violence, Imhoff recognized the increase of violent crimes involving individuals 25 years and under. At this time, he made reducing violence a top priority and hopes to inspire his generation to become more involved in this cause.[4]

I’m starting to see why it’s important to him…
