So… the only time “progressives” pretend they to be horrified by suicide is when it’s DIY and a gun is used…

Talarico: Police in Schools Make Students ‘Less Safe,’ Harms ‘Black and Brown Students’- Unearthed audio reveals the Democrat U.S. Senate nominee arguing against adding more police officers and guns to schools. [More]
When he says “Gun-Free Zone,” he means “Gun-Free Zone”! He demands the most precious lives among us be undefended from ravenous monsters– under force of law.
And if that’s true in schools, it must be true everywhere. In Everytown.
Face it, if you own a gun, you’re racist.
This is what Giffords and the other grabber groups are really endorsing.

So to begin with the law that’s being challenged here was a Hawaii law that applies to individuals who have already been approved … to have concealed carry permits. They’ve already been approved. They’ve gone through the background checks. They’ve gone through the fingerprinting … They’ve gone through the whole process and been approved to conceal carry a handgun in the state of Hawaii. And after they approved to carry a gun in Hawaii, there’s two additional two additional steps that must be taken before they can buy a handgun. The first step is that they have to get a permit to purchase form. And once they get that permit to purchase form in their hands, they only have 30 days to go out and buy the handgun with that permit to purchase form. And if that permit to purchase form goes more than 30 days from the date it’s issued by Hawaii, then that permit to purchase form is void. It is expired and no good, which means you could have to go back and go get another purchase to permit form to acquire a handgun under these various restrictions. The other critical thing that they challenge, the other part of Hawaii law they challenge is once you acquire the handgun with this permit to purchase, now you go out, you buy the gun, you get the gun, you take it in your possession, you then under Hawaii law have five days, that’s right, just five days to take your newly acquired handgun and walk it down to the police department and have them inspect it.

We’re the Only Ones Buying Back Enough
A Westchester County police bigwig’s bust for allegedly driving her son to a botched gang drive by in the Bronx has Democrats running for cover — and Republicans saying I told you so. Ex-Mount Vernon Deputy Police Commissioner Jennifer Lackard is facing attempted murder charges in the shocking June 29 shooting, but prominent Democrats in the region are staying mum and refusing to condemn the disgraced cop because the suburban city is a coveted party stronghold.

This is interesting: I compared her department portrait to the woman on the left beaming over a table-full of “gun buyback” bounty and got this result:

He’s not my first choice, and I have real problems with his “loony Heritage American beer-guzzling, burger-gobbling beach bums venerated mediocrity over excellence” ingratitude and arrogance. And I’m not the only one.
It’s not so much a matter of being pure, and of the perfect being the enemy of the good, as it is the legitimate question that no “gun groups” will acknowledge, let alone answer: Who, in the long run, will end up doing the most damage to 2A?
I guess because Amy will be open borders/pathway to citizenship amnesty and Vivek will just be more H-1Bs, that kind of answers it, but that doesn’t mean I have to like the “choices” being offered. And I also have to weigh in how rewarding Vichycons out of lesser-of-two-evils desperation has gotten us to where we are now.
I guess when I’m in the booth I’ll make my choice, and then see, based on results, whether it made any difference.

He was charged with participating in a scheme to issue gun permits in exchange for San Jose Sharks hockey game tickets, access to a luxury suite at the SAP Center, and hundreds of Apple iPads. The bribes were given to [Sheriff Laurie] Smith and her guests, prosecutors said. Under conditions of his plea, Sung surrendered his California peace officer certification and agreed to complete 400 hours of community service.[More]
The greedy f_s were running a conspiracy that denied citizens who didn’t pony up for “may/and then again may not issue” extortion their rights and placing lives in jeopardy under color of authority — and no one has gone to jail, including briber/anti-gun Apple CEO Tim Smith, DA Jeff Rosen.
Don’t speak to us about your fearless prosecutions of fellow big club members. And don'[t speak to us about how “Rick Sung dedicated twenty years of his life to serving the people of Santa Clara County,” defense flack– he didn’t just wake up one morning and decide he could get away with in-your-face corruption. His “twenty years of [self] service” experience told him he could get away with it. That and it set the tone for everyone under him and Laurie.
And note just dropping it will prevent further probes into whether perennially virtue-signaling-on-race California Democrats discriminated on who gets approved for permits.
