All the anti-gun groups and Democrats who oppose that (along with the “enforce existing gun laws” crowd) should demand the heroic citizen be prosecuted. [More]

Go ahead Democrats, demand his arrest for bringing a gun into a school. Do it before the midterms.

Only in America

So, even the Newsraper of Record couldn’t erase the fact that the hot-headed leftist inserted himself into a conversation with bellicose insults and then assaulted the older guy who was walking away, and is now playing the race card, while the wormtongues at Giffords, who want to exploit this to disarm you while not allowing comments, wring their hands…?

What, they should have just duked it out, like “Real Man“? An 80-year-old against a large, angry, and alcohol-fueled man who is 25 years younger? No mention that fists and feet are involved in more homicides than “assault rifles”…?

The older guy’s major mistake was not calling the cops first, saying he feared for his life, and then letting them know his attorney would be their point of contact for more information.

A Political Calculation

“The perpetrator needs to be held accountable to the full extent of the law,” Healey said in the interview. “If he committed a violent crime, he should be deported.” [More]

Four on one and he backed up and warned “Don’t touch me”?

So, as long as the victim is a member of her core constituency community, Maura has no problem throwing the “resident” under the bus.

Housing Authority Eviction Over Armed Defense Ignores Prior Court Rulings

St louis housing authority eviction

If the Housing Authority had bothered to look before (metaphorically) pulling the trigger, they’d have known that discriminating against armed residents in public housing has been challenged before, with results in different jurisdictions showing the courts consistently frowning on it. [More]

Ableist gun prohibitionists who decry “stand your ground” laws would rather this wheelchair-bound man, who couldn’t run away, had been murdered instead of armed with an equalizer.

Good Shoot. Now Get Out.

By the St. Louis Housing Authority?

How can it be a “criminal” matter if charges have not been filed and a conviction obtained against the shooter?

Hasn’t SAF already resolved this, with a federal judge declaring in 2019 that “the East St. Louis Housing Authority cannot deny, through rules and regulations, a tenant’s right to lawfully own a firearm”? Yeah, different federal districts between St. Louis and East St, Louis, but you’d think the lesson would have been learned, assuming the bureaucrats are knowledgeable enough to apply it…

And hasn’t that success been repeated in New York, Tennessee, and Warren County…?

A Good First Step

Colombian President Abelardo de la Espriella issued a decree loosening a decades old restriction on carrying firearms in public for self-defense. [More]

Except, just as with positive ATF rule changes and presidential executive actions, what one man can decree, another can rescind.

Adventures in Aptronyms

And then Judge Salamey said the dumbest thing you could imagine. From the article:

The judge admonished Long for carrying the gun and told him he has to think before he acts. ‘Fortunately, you weren’t injured, but nonetheless, you had a gun there in the first place, which was poor judgment,’ he said. ‘And what do you need a gun for protection in a mall, in the first place?’ [More]

What’s in a name?

CBS Doesn’t Screw Up SYG Report!

Prosecutors today cleared Payne, based on Florida’s Stand Your Ground law, saying the State would not be able to overcome her claim that she was in fear of great bodily harm. [More]

Jeez, listen to the family and you’d never know he wasn’t anything but a saintly victim “tragically taken from us as the result of a senseless act of violence.”

Don’t get in arguments over stupid stuff. Walk away if you can.

Ah, I think I see why CBS was supportive of the shoot this time:

… he allegedly hurled the N-word at her …

We’re the Only Ones Self-Defending Enough

A knife-wielding woman stabbed two people in the heart of Times Square Monday afternoon before advancing on NYPD officers with two knives and being shot by police… [More]

See, the two mere citizen victims had their choices to do that taken away from them by “law.”
