Can’t These People Read Rules?

Multiple people wounded in shooting at South Carolina’s largest mall, authorities detain suspects [More]

Who thinks they’ll be surprised when the suspects are ID’d?

Haywood Mall, eh? A Simon Mall…

At some point, some ambulance chaser’s gonna figure out “knew or should have known”and claim his client wouldn’t have been damaged if the code of conduct would have allowed him the means of self defense…

Don’t Think of It as ‘Cutting’ in Line, Think of It as Sensitivity Training

6 people hurt in stabbings at Penn Station, authorities say [More]

And, of course, “Under New York Penal Law § 265.01-e, public transportation infrastructure — including train stations, subway stations, rail cars, buses, and bus terminals — is classified as a sensitive location. The state’s official concealed carry FAQ confirms that licensed carry holders generally may not bring a firearm into a sensitive location…”

Knives and stabbings aren’t allowed either, so there’s that.

Great American State Fair to Celebrate Freedom by Suspending Second Amendment

This is citizen disarmament, just as certainly and just as seriously as if this were being imposed by extreme gun prohibitionist Democrats in New York City or Chicago. [More]

Musical B-listers shouldn’t be the only ones “getting the yips.”

Half a Loaf

Safnew

In today’s ruling, the court affirmed the permanent injunction SAF won at the district court as it relates to carry on private property open to the public (aka the “Vampire rule”). In the same opinion, however, the court upheld the facial constitutionality of New York’s carry ban in parks… [More]

“Constitutionality”? As in “securing the Blessings of Liberty“…?

Back to the Drawing Board

The Supreme Court of Maryland has found Montgomery County does not have the authority under state law to prohibit wear-and-carry permit holders from bringing guns within 100 yards of certain public places… It now heads back to the Montgomery County Circuit Court in Rockville for further proceedings…   [More]

Not exactly the “HUGE WIN!” some are calling it…

Besides, It’s Not THEIR Money…

States consider drones to stop school shootings [More]

Good grief. Everything but what’s needed.

Why do I picture bureaucrats sitting around a meeting table cracking each other up with increasingly ludicrous proposals?

“The drones can … spray pepper, and even knock active shooters down”…? Stop! I can’t breathe…

And it sounds like much of this is in Republican states…

We’re the Only Ones Flushed Enough

Classes have been cancelled at a northwest suburban school on Tuesday after a resource officer misplaced his gun while he was using the bathroom on Monday afternoon. [More]

Again…?

Who does this guy think he is, Michael Byrd…?

Like the answer is to “review procedures”… And if you really wanted the department to be accountable, Chief Pecora, you’d tell us the goofball’s name.

Drums of War

[Strongsville COSTCO/Google Maps]

A Berea Municipal Court document obtained by FOX 8 said witnesses told police the suspect was seen walking toward the front doors of Costco with a “drum magazine protruding from one of his pockets.” An employee reportedly approached him and said he couldn’t enter with the weapon. He reportedly took out a semi-automatic handgun with the drum magazine and shot the victim. [More]

Ah! War drums! Something else for red-shirted hags who’d never heard of them before to rage over and demand to ban!

Don’t people read signs anymore?

Or do they?

Texas Democrat James Talarico Said Having Police in Schools Fuels ‘Culture of Violence’ in Newly Resurfaced Audio [More]

Why is it every time I see this lunatic I picture Elliot Page?

If it ends up being between him and Cornyn, well, this is how the system keeps gunvoters in line.

And look what else Texans can elect. Good grief.

Behind Every Silver Cloud is a Dark Lining

The principal of Pauls Valley High School was injured on Tuesday afternoon when authorities said he tackled a gunman entering the school. Kirk Moore was shot in the leg and airlifted to the hospital. Authorities said his injuries were non-life-threatening. [More]

Good on him. He has my impressed respect.

That said, it’s a key gun-grabber argument for why stunted capacity magazine mandates are needed: so that someone else besides them will have time to tackle a shooter while he’s swapping mags.

When Seconds Count

As details emerged, students voiced concerns about their safety and the university’s response, calling for faster and clearer communication. Many expressed frustration with how Northeastern handled the incidents, saying they turned to social media and peers to fill information gaps left by delayed and sparse official alerts.  [More]

Everything but realize what they’re going to have to be prepared and able to do if they hope to have a chance when its their turn in the barrel, and then demand the right to do it while disregarding anyone who orders them “No.”

Of course, it’s easier to just stick your head in the sand and believe Ruben.
