The Monster Makers

Throughout history, excess wealth has been used to salve society’s problems, funding hospitals, food banks, and building libraries to develop minds and cathedrals to lift the spirits. But increasingly, the charitable urge has shifted away from such worthy causes and, increasingly, reflects a distinct progressive agenda that seeks, ultimately, to transform lives through the expansion of state power.

A lot of people will have preceded them before the rope-selling “capitalists” get theirs. The creation becoming uncontrollable and turning on the Creator seems to be a recurring theme. We’ve seen it happen with our own government and there are no indications anything stands in the way of mass bloodthirsty madness but those who will not go gentle into that good night.

Or are we supposed to be special?

Et Tu, Cabelas?

Cabela’s in Indiana not selling standard capacity mags to IL residents [More]

They ID customers to buy magazines? What law?

They just don’t want to get sued? Maybe volunteering to be a proxy for the grabbers will end up costing them more than that.

And what about Bass Pro Shops?

I’m trying to recall from my earlier career if I’ve ever met a corporate risk management director who didn’t need to have their bowels unblocked.

Club for Metastasizing

Club for Growth Distances Itself Further From Trump [More]

Hey, cheap labor über alles, right, rope-selling capitalists? And to be clear– this is not about the avatar. It’s about the people who believed in what he said he stood for.

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

The commies love having useful idiot bourgeoisieuntil they’re no longer needed.

On Thin Ice

NHL player scolded for skipping Pride event launches debate over forced activism: ‘I think it’s ridiculous’ [More]

This is no different than communist scum coercing diners into a BLM fist salute. Any way you look at it, that’s a hostile workplace environment.

It doesn’t matter if it’s “voluntary”– by forcing him to make a decision that has nothing to do with playing hockey, he has been “outed” to include those who would make it mandatory or else, like frostback Nazi Sid Seixeiro.

God only knows what “legal” repercussions there’d be if he refused to participate in a Toronto game.

Ready to Rumble

YouTube Censorship Of Suppressor Content & Wholesale Deletion of Creators [More]

Well, it’s not like the CEO came here for the liberty…

While it’s understandable and necessary to endorse uncensored alternatives like Rumble, the fact remains that I have accounts on Truth Social, Gab, and MeWe and don’t get anywhere near the admittedly limited exposure I get on Facebook and Twitter.

Delay of Game

A judge has issued a temporary restraining order blocking the new Illinois law banning assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines [More]

Related, just to show how worlds apart we are:

“They took an oath of office to enforce the laws of the state of Illinois, and they will do so,” Pritzker said of the sheriffs Friday in Chicago after signing a law protecting abortion and gender-affirming care.

That’s not what the oath is to, but funny how this disgusting pig of a privileged elite domestic enemy now demands his enforcers be “oath keepers”…

That’s not without precedent.

Florida’s new agriculture commissioner proposes ban on Merchant Category Codes for gun, ammo purchases [More]

‘Progressive’ Bank Developing ‘Department of Precrime’ ‘Snitchware’ on Gun Owners

For some reason, the IT term “GIGO” (Garbage In, Garbage Out) comes to mind. That and Priscilla Sims Brown sitting at her desk in a trance asking, “Magic 8 Ball: Should I report this purchase to the feds?” and then acting on its response. [More]

Who knew Amalgamated kept a trio of precogs in a tank over at HQ?

Marxist Category Codes

Gillibrand calls upon feds to implement advisory for financial institutions to report suspicious gun purchases [More]

What an evil political whore.

And I can prove it.

Just don’t tell Jacob.

I’ve got a new AmmoLand article on the bank codes I have yet to promote here. I had solo granddaughter duty for 3 hours today and I’m behind on everything.

I Beg to Differ

Unfettered democracy and markets cannot be controlled by a tiny, self-serving elite. [More]

Sure they can. What does this guy think “two wolves and a sheep” and woke corporate struggle session cancel culture abrogating rights government isn’t ready to take on yet are all about?

Getting What They Voted For

The store’s owner Marcy Landolfo said that after 15 break-ins over the last year and a half, the business can’t survive the financial burdens the crimes have cost the shop. [More]

So, Marcy… if I made a bet that you’re a Democrat with “progressive” sympathies who favors “commonsense gun safety laws,”, would I lose?

Thank You, Captain Obvious!

Study shows cash transfers from rich to poor can increase happiness of the poor [More]

So naturally, the solution for human happiness is a dependency on communists!

Just ask CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil!

Curious thing though– they don’t really tell us much about the qualifications of the “researchers” to fundamentally alter the governance and course of humanity.

One is this guy, who also shared his “water is wet” epiphany by concluding “Smartphone use undermines enjoyment of face-to-face social interactions,” and the other fancies herself an expert in happiness who does a mediocre job of imparting it to those taking her classes.

Reality, of course, shows us that totalitarian governments with the power to impose forced wealth transfers have historically always resulted in human misery and destitution.

As an aside, you’d think a smart guy like Jeff Bezos would realize a simple truth pointed out by John Stossel:

If the IRS grabbed 100 percent of income over $1 million, the take would be just $616 billion. That’s only a third of this year’s deficit.

A Cultural Journey

SCOOP: Walt Disney Co. recently hosted a “cultural journey” for employees featuring a “Two-Spirit,” “she/they,” “drag queen,” “merperson” named Geo Neptune. The company is following every fad of radical gender theory, from children’s programming to pseudo-indigenous pantomime. [More]

So does “two spirits” mean he’s possessed?

And a “Master Basketweaver”? Wasn’t there a song that mentioned that?

Parents patronizing them are inviting them in and helping to spread Disney Family Values. Is this what you really want for your children?

Michigan school board appoints ‘unhinged’ 23-year-old LGBTQ+ trustee who self-describes as having ‘several mental illnesses’ [More]
