‘Any’

“You, your occupants or guests, or the guests of any occupants, may not engage in the following activities … discharging a firearm in the apartment community… Any violation of this paragraph shall be a material breach of this Lease and will entitle us to exercise all rights and remedies under the lease and law.” [More]

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

And in the Not All Landlords are Bad, category, remember this young fool?

He’s being evicted.

Kristol Attack on ‘Trumpism’ is Ultimately Self-Defeating for His Useful Idiot Followers

While anyone dumb enough to believe in and follow his Democrat operative noisemaking can certainly be described by the old Soviet pejorative “useful idiot,” the term “Judas goat” seems more appropriate for him. [More]

The dangers of Kristol meth…

Banking on Disarmament

WHAT IS HB38?: HB38, the Second Amendment Financial Privacy Act, prevents payment card networks from using a firearms code for purchases in North Carolina. It would also prevent payment card networks from maintaining a record of individuals residing in this State who own firearms. More importantly, it would prohibit a payment card network from discriminating against a firearms merchant, including refusing to serve or declining a lawful payment card transaction. [More]

What, they don’t want the Department of PreCrime snitchware being pushed by a communist bank?

None Dare Call It Bipolar

The FDIC will eliminate “reputational risk” from regulatory standards. Since President Obama began “Operation Choke Point,” Democrats and anti-gun financial institutions have weaponized “reputational risk” to de-bank the gun industry. [More]

See? Back and forth, back and forth

Hey, Rocky, Watch Me Pull a Rabbit Out of My Hat!

Roku has Rocky & Bullwinkle. [More]

They also have spineless @$$holes working for them who “feel” it’s necessary to be toadies to the demands of “woke” mobsters/cultural Marxists:

For a company that depends on retro TV shows, that’s like confessing they’re racist. Anyone triggered by Rocky & Bullwinkle is more ridiculous than anything ever featured on the cartoon, and deserves to be laughed at, insulted, and ejected.

Woku…

Apartheid 2.0

Trevor Noah Suggests ‘Integration’ Of Black & White People Was A Mistake [More]

That’s because racism, like citizen disarmament, is collectivism and Trevor Noah is a genocidal collectivist.

His native “cut the throat of whiteness” South African zealotry is showing through again.

This is what the DSM promotes as a mass cultural influencer. Why?

Wake Me When It Hurts the Bottom Line

Costco shoppers respond as company’s DEI practices fall under scrutiny [More]

Big deal. If they still give them their business knowing Costco’s disarmament policy, they’ll accept anything.

Even if they ignore it, they are still subjecting themselves and their loved ones to the heightened risks of a posted “gun free zone.”

A Seller’s Market

Facial recognition for personalized prices? Kroger’s ‘patently evil’ AI plan ignites a firestorm [More]

Hey, we just want to make sure the privileged pay their fair share.

Patently evil should be no surprise.

And it’s not just the Second they suppress:

Kroger confirmed that it will stop selling assault rifle-themed publications, while noting it would continue to sell other gun magazines. Bloomberg News was the first to report that Kroger is pulling some gun periodicals.

The Champion of the Little Guy

Alex Soros: ‘These people are bullies. And you fight back’ [More]

Anybody else get the feeling this nepo Bond villain never had to settle it one on one with anybody? And this is an interesting admission for a would-be kingmaker who can summon top Democrats to kiss his… ring:

Soros insists that he is a committed European…

The reason America became exceptional is because the Founders rejected all that.

A Public/Private Partnership

Gun-detection technology has been installed at more than 200 Utah schools… “The test will involve a representative from ZeroEyes, wearing a safety vest and carrying an Airsoft rifle and an Airsoft pistol,” meant to be visible to security cameras inside and outside an unspecified number of Ogden schools, the notice reads. [More]

So, all you need is a trench coat…?

And this promises to be every bit the boondoggle as ShotSpotter…?

I guess when there’s money to spend, actual effective solutions can be avoided.

On the plus side, it ought to give school resource officers plenty of options for hunkering down…

Too Many Chiefs and Not Enough Indians?

I note some in comments are not only defending but applauding the H-1Bs. [More]

The last thing I have time for is to engage in debates under my own articles, especially since no shortage of posters shielded by anonymity seem to devolve into distractions and confirmation bias-based insults. That said, I don’t like to see some contentions go unchallenged, and I find a lot to be concerned about with some of the observations articulated by Matt Bracken. I had another link by a former HR recruiter explaining scams that H-1B companies engage in, but I guess that was too much free speech for Mr. Musk’s foreign labor-championing X.

Speaking of which, my wife retired after decades as a mainframe programmer, versatile in all the old languages that are still in demand but with an aging pool of qualified IT personnel. She still gets calls for contract openings, and nine times out of ten the recruiter’s English is practically unintelligible. My more tolerant and enlightened betters would say that shows what a dignity-violating racist I am.

I can’t help but recall how The New York Times crowed about Democrat expansion in Virginia a few years back:

“Guns, that is the most pressing issue for me,” said Vijay Katkuri, 38, a software engineer from southern India, explaining why he voted for a Democratic challenger in Tuesday’s elections. He was shopping for chicken at the Indian Spice Food Market. “There are lots of other issues, but you can only fix them if you are alive.”

As with people of all backgrounds, I’ve known a handful of exceptions, people of Indian heritage who are patriots as fine as any I’ve met, but the rule of numbers overwhelmingly results in Grewal and unusual punishment.
