Call Me Erresponsible…

ATF is proud of our partnership with @NSSF to irradicate straw purchasing activities in the St. Louis area through education using the “Don’t Lie” campaign. #DontLieForTheOtherGuy [More]

Hiring the best and the brightest, are we? Hey, if we expect them to irrase irroneous tweets, their whole account will have to go.

And, of course, NSSFs compromise is not enough.

Block Allegations Point to Favoring Criminals Over Legal Gun Owners

As far as gun owners are concerned, it couldn’t happen to a “nicer” leftist billionaire. That Dorsey, co-founder and former CEO of Twitter and current Principal Executive Office and Chairperson of Block, should be reported as an enabler of criminal transactions while discriminating against lawful commerce in firearms is just another contradiction between what anti-gunners say they want and what they actually achieve.

Help criminals and discriminate against gun owners? It’s good to be a woke elitist!

When Mini-Tyrants Rage

Rope-GIVING ‘Capitalists’

REPORT: The Black Lives Matter Movement Has Received a Stunning $82 Billion From Corporations [More]

Paid for by end customers through higher prices, of course.

I wonder how many give because they’re truly “woke” fools, how many submit to extortion out of cowardice, and how many believe it will buy their way out of the tumbrels.

Pioneers! O Pioneers!

Former Colorado Rep. Pat Schroeder, pioneer for women’s rights, dies [More]

And here’s Pat encouraging a rope-selling capitalist to undermine those rights.

Just about every article I’ve seen calls her a “pioneer.” I don’t see a coonskin cap, so I’m assuming they mean this kind

Naturally, It’s Trump’s Fault

SVB Failure Sparks Blame Game Over Trump-Era Regulatory Rule [More]

Yeah, more central government control, that’s always the answer, because they do so well at everything else. Plus it’s in the Constitution somewhere, isn’t it?

The less someone’s actions are regulated, the more they bear responsibility for them. It’s like a law of nature or something. Meanwhile, the major banks think it’s good business to collude on policies that alienate tens of millions of Second Amendment-believing gun owners.

Bank Un-American

Billionaire financier Thomas H. Lee found dead of self-inflicted gunshot wound in NYC office: sources [More]

I wonder if the people in the blonde and pink wigs might offer a clue

And not to cast doubts on the official story, but the “suicide” angle would have a lot more credibility with me if he’d been found tied to a tree or something…
