Reigning on His Parade

“I lack a proper proofreader,” too. Does that make me an “amateur”? 😊 [More]

Worse than that, my spellcheck is woke.

Typos: We all make ’em (and sometimes intentionally, because in case anyone hasn’t noticed, I love to play with language and my toys, my rules). That said, people chronically not knowing the difference between “you’re” and “your” just seems lazy.

What really irritated me about Nicholas’ post was this:

I encourage whomever reads this, if you agree with anything I wrote, copy and paste it and send it on to any or all of the above, because if we’re to gain any traction here, we need more than a couple voices speaking up.

No one did. None of his X.com recipients responded, and I see a lot of them who get promoted here, yet somehow it never occurs to them to reciprocate.

Add to that most of the comment posters to my articles that he cited were either preoccupied with childish ad hominem attacks or changing the subject from a conversation nobody else was offering to hijacking the thread to talk about stories on all the DSM sites. Yeah, that’ll bring about substantive change.

And the thing is, lifting the needed finger would be as easy as swatting flies.

Really.

If I ever just say “Screw it, I’ve got mine” and go enjoy my dotage in a life of ease, it won’t be because of the antis.

Moving Targets

Eric Swalwell Says Dems Will Target Private Citizens Who Work With Trump [More]

Really? Organized Democrat lawfare against citizens who don’t back their scams and vote their way?

See, this is the latest Big Lie Dems are pushing– that exposing their political criminality and making them pay for it, while it may be personally satisfying, is still only justice working the way it should. A sense of schadenfreude about karma, and even feeling a rush of revenge for wrongs done, is simply a side benefit of human nature.

Here’s one danger with his threat that seems directly relevant to us– just like the court judgments that assign decision protections to members of gun groups that obtained a judgment, being a member of such groups that support him and his agenda will mean you “worked with Trump.”

Me, I think this treasonous Swalwell f_head ought to be investigated for voter intimidation conspiracy, and if speech or debate clause protections really apply to doing it on CNN (I know about Murtha, but SCOTUS never weighed in). And that in turn reminds me of a write-up I once did concerning an anti-gun Vichycon, centered on this quote from an AP report:

A congressman has no special protection from criminal charges, a federal appeals panel ruled Wednesday in allowing a racketeering and bribery trial for Rep. Joseph M. McDade (R-Pa.). McDade had used the Constitution’s “speech or debate” clause in asking for dismissal of the charges.

An investigation would be a whole lot more orderly and peaceable in the end than having to remind this toad Swalwell that people who feel they’re targeted and have nothing left to lose sometimes target back.

A Fork in the Road

UPDATE

Per HinMO’s comment, I did a quick search:

While it may sound and look like him, the “Mind to Goals” YouTube channel is not an AI version of the real Elon Musk. Instead, the channel uses artificial intelligence to generate its content and has videos featuring AI-generated voices and images meant to imitate Musk.

Looks like I didn’t do due diligence on fact checking to read the disclaimer buried in the text and that’s on me. While it doesn’t invalidate principles expounded on, it does invalidate the source.

Good talk.

Just don’t expect her Somali constituents to agree.

And there’s a more fundamental question behind what kind of country we want to be:

Does the government serve the people or do the people serve the government?

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

We know which side of the decency and government equations these people fall on.

We’re the Only Ones Immune Enough

Ex-United Nations employee extradited to Cleveland on gun smuggling charges … Assemian’s attorney… said it’s possible he would explore arguing that Assemian had diplomatic immunity. [More]

So, a government with a prime directive “to secure the blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity” respects the rights of foreign criminals over peaceable citizens…?

We’re the Only Ones Conceding Enough

Former FBI agent Christopher O’Leary is on MSNBC telling Trump to bend the knee and stop the deportations of people here illegally, or the attacks will not only continue, but they will escalate. [More]

Besides, it’s a lot safer to go after the “greatest threat“– you know, people who have earned what they have and have the most to lose through disobedience…

We’re the Only Ones Delighting Enough

The permissibility of weapon-mounted lights (WMLs) and red dot sights on a concealed carry weapon (CCW) in California is determined by individual county sheriffs. Recently, some sheriffs have begun restricting or banning these accessories, with Contra Costa County being a prominent example. These county-specific decisions have made the rules for carrying accessories complex and variable across California. [More]

The impossibility of navigating through a patchwork quilt is the whole point, don’t you think?

And is anyone still clinging to the “Sheriffs are good/police chiefs are bad” fallacy?

The Volunteer Loophole

The church says trained volunteers follow Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms guidelines to make three specific cuts to the firearm to make it no longer legally a gun. There is no transfer of ownership while the gun is still a gun, the church says. The owner must wait on the property for the process to be completed. The owner can either take the parts or donate them to be forged into garden tools. [More]

There are still other questions…

And the volunteers have all had background checks to make sure they’re not prohibited from touching the guns? And training to make sure they’re really unloaded?

It’s the Latest!

SB 243 is now in effect. The bill bans specialty accessories like “binary” and “forced reset” triggers and bump stocks. It also allows any government entity to place its property off-limits to concealed handgun license holders. [More]

So, the Democrats will be satisfied now and stop any further attacks…?

Right…?
