I Scream, You Scream

Nashville school shooting: Biden criticized for joking about ice cream in first statement since attack [More]

Who says the Dotard in Chief was joking?

As for Sheryl Crow (and other overprivileged leftist “celebrity” lottery winners calling for prior restraint infringements against their “fans” and against people with sense enough not to be), as usual, they’re talking sh!+.

An atrocity horrible enough to divide white traditional Christian Americans on the subject of “assault weapons” certainly seems … advantageous … to the violence monopolist’s current agenda. And they’re not beyond creating a public struggle session to shame gun ban opponents into submission.

As for why “he” did it, I defer to George Brougham:

Evil does exist. Evil IS.

The power we have is to destroy its practitioners, to contain it, or to repel it and send it howling in the darkness.

That’s what its devotees and functionaries are trying to take away from us.

Government Has Known from the Start There is a Right to Own Machineguns

Half a Loaf

Florida gun owners may soon be able to carry concealed weapons without a license as the permitless carry bill moves one step closer to the governor’s desk after passing in the House on Friday. [More]

But, as we’ve been discussing of late, it won’t include open carry because “law and order” Republicans feel more beholden to the Florida Sheriff’s Association than they do gun owners.

Do what the antis do. Take the incremental win and then come back for more. Bruen‘s tradition and history are is on the side of open carry and they can’t document any credible increase in crime from lawful open carry so that prohibition will fall.

Unless gun owners are ready to take political revenge on the Vichycons — and that means having someone they’ll get behind and support to run against the squishes — there’s not much they can do but complain, which doesn’t accomplish much and is bad for the digestion…

We’re the Only Ones Unintentional Enough

Engel said that Malone was right-handed and as the officer smashed the victim’s vehicle window with the baton in his right hand, the firearm in his left hand discharged with a bullet striking Poulin. “There was no intention to pull the trigger,” Engel said. [More]

Is “the firearm… discharged” anything like “the gun went off“?

Funny… every time I’ve practiced weak hand shooting it hasn’t made me forget Cooper’s Rules. Then again, I’ve never had the professional training to assess a situation dangerous enough to draw a gun on a suspect with that hand, either.

Unless you’re a Demanding Mom. Then you don’t need facts.

UPDATE

The shooter, Audrey Hale, 28, of Nashville, identified as transgender and had no previous criminal record, according to the chief. [More]

Now that’s a real “progressive” windfall– they can say the shooter fit the profile of being a white male…

And with a “commonsense gun safety” mom…?
