That’s What They Get for Being Dick’s

Dick’s Sporting Goods shares crashed by the most on record Tuesday after the sporting goods retailer slashed its annual sales and adjusted operating-income forecasts… [More]

My four-year-old granddaughter starts tee-ball soon.

Guess where I didn’t get her mitt.

Now We’re Just Haggling Over the Price

It’s the embarrassing charge that raises eyebrows because York is reportedly worth $500 million and the family fortune is believed to hover around $8.5 billion, but he allegedly tried to enlist the services of a prostitute for $140. [More]

Hey, he can afford expensive whores, like the ones he gave half-a-million to for more citizen disarmament.

“It seems insane to me that a citizen can buy something like that,” York said… “I’m not anti-Second Amendment. This is something that is common sense.”

Come and take it, rich kid. I’ve taken on bigger and better-funded bullies than you.

What seems insane to me is people who won’t control themselves demanding to control those of us who do not share in their moral defects.

Like the whole damn NFL.

Gun Owners Have a Lot to Be Worried About With Cameras, AI, and Gun Rights [More]

In fairness, we are a lot easier to go after than the criminals they use the tech as an excuse for…

Y’ever get the feeling the wrong people are being monitored…?

No ‘Loony Heritage Americans’ Need Apply

XBOX CEO Asha Sharma cited the company’s financial health for the layoffs. [More]

And if we can’t believe a financially-incentivized “Indian origin” corporate mouthpiece on this, who can we believe?

But wait! There’s more!

Sharma has been asked to be an advisor to the US Federal Reserve for Productivity and Jobs, where she will seemingly lead a task force related to, ironically, employment.

And the administration can’t do that for other issues because…?

It’s a big क्लब and you ain’t in it.

Time to Show the Servants Who’s in Charge

Horry County HOA bans firearms from shared spaces, raising questions about gun owner rights [More]

“The new rule set by CAMS Management”…? These “Executive Leadership Team” goofballs?

When I was HOA president (ending the reign of OCD under Witless and Titless), we directed the management company, not the other way around.

“Vibrant” and “Diverse” are all you need to know. That and “Comments are turned off.”

I’d think you could make the argument that, as a quasi governmental organization with board elections, HOA rules are subordinate to state law. Residents who care about their rights should get statements from the police and sheriff on if they will enforce the rule.

How to Win Friends and Influence People

Because we’ve seen firsthand how well it works for them.

Jerry Reinsdorf, of course, plays both sides of the field. And Justin Ishbia is a flat-out rope-selling capitalist.

Keep digging.

Cancer Starts Out as Localized Cells

Tradition HOA bans firearms in common areas, sparking debate and pushback from Port St. Lucie official – The new rule applies to everyone, including concealed carry permit holders, and covers parks, trails, and public gathering spaces in the Port St. Lucie community. [More]

The police chief says he won’t enforce it as a criminal action but I imagine if it resulted in a trespassing charge they’d have to get involved.

It sounds like the HOA has its share of idiots besides the ones on the board. I’m talking YOU, Tomasz.

And I’m reminded of Witless and Titless.

America’s Pastime?

Last Friday night at Camden Yards, the Baltimore Orioles had a Tupac Shakur bobblehead night. You remember Tupac? The notorious “gangsta” rapper who was killed in a 1996 drive-by in Las Vegas? Yes, that Tupac, whose life involved gangs, guns, killing, and hard time for sexual abuse. So much for family-friendly nights at the old ballpark. Wholesomeness doesn’t put butts in seats like honoring a dead thug — not in gang-plagued Baltimore, anyway. [More]

At what point are people who go for this sort of manipulation going to realize they’re being used, and by whom?

Oh, look: He donates to Chuck Schumer!

Rope-Selling Capitalists

They’ll just flee to another state when Democrat taxes get too high and continue on. Until the day they find they can’t.
