One Big Happy Gun-Free Zone

The Montgomery County Council unanimously approved a bill on Tuesday banning the possession of firearms within 100 yards of a place of public assembly… it bans the possession of firearms in most public places, including “a park; place of worship; school; library; recreational facility; hospital; community health center; long-term facility; or multipurpose exhibition facility, such as a fairgrounds or conference center.” [More]

And we’ve already seen the “good” that does.

But don’t worry. “Only Ones” are exempted.

“[T]he son of immigrant parents,” eh, Gabe? So they figured imposing their native citizen disarmament practiced by those they were fleeing on those taking them in would be just the ticket?

Good thing that has nothing to do with the “single issue”. And I have that on good authority…

Most Favored Nation

Their well planned campaign of influence, backed by substantial economic resources and technological advances, has masterfully manipulated the Western elite, media, entertainment, universities, NGOs, and think-tanks to control the narrative on China. Businesses and politicians have been won over with deals, creating dependencies that China has expertly exploited. [More]

There’s more to that old Vulcan proverb than meets the ear.

Stirring Up the Mob

Biden warns ‘dark forces that thirst for power’ could prevail in midterms: President links attack on Paul Pelosi to Trump, the ‘Big Lie’, January 6 and MAGA Republicans in divisive speech warning of AUTOCRACY and ‘300 election deniers’ [More]

He certainly is setting the stage for a peaceful and orderly transition of power, is he not?

Good thing it will be Democrat cities that burn.

There’s a Difference Between ‘Antisemitic’ and ‘Antisubversive’

In rally for Lee Zeldin tonight, FL Gov. DeSantis invoked Jewish billionaire George Soros, who’s been the target of antisemitic tropes [More]

It’s nice to see that little bit of public whining so succinctly backfire in that smug @$$hole’s face.

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.

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?

Adventures in Baselessness

Liberal Pro-Abortion Organization Files Lawsuit Over People Monitoring Ballot Drop Boxes in Arizona [More]

We know the fear of voter fraud is baseless. Just ask the media.

Besides, it’s not like the League of Women Voters has a leftwing political axe to grind on guns — is it?

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…
