Breaking Up is Hard to Do

So the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is celebrating its 20th birthday—the perfect opportunity to rethink the whole concept of “homeland security” and how to best provide it. DHS has grown into a monster that is massively expensive, incredibly ineffective, and reliably destructive of basic civil liberties. It’s time to abolish it and replace it with fewer, smaller, and more accountable agencies. [More]

First, let’s talk about what those agencies would be Constitutionally authorized to do.

We’re the Only Ones Elite Enough

No, it’s not a toy gun! Your elite 104 Precinct Public Safety Officers confiscated this illegal Orbeez air rifle, capable of causing serious injury akin to a BB gun. [More]

So neither of those two “elite” meatheads has the presence of mind to be embarrassed?

We’re the Only Ones Showing Up in Force Enough

Video from the family’s surveillance camera shows an unmarked police car pull up, and a Lorain police officer and a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agent jump out and try to speak with the boys. [More]

ATF? And 12 in all show up? Over “jaywalking”?

And nice “We the People” tat.

Nice way these “sworn officers” talk to citizens. I see the Lorain PD limits who can comment on their posts so citizens can’t talk back.

And remember: Back the Blue!

Wolf in the Fold

“It is our view that the missing component to the gun violence prevention movement is the faith community,” said Bryan Miller, director of the advocacy group Heeding God’s Call to End Gun Violence. “The faith community can take charge and lead this effort.” [More]

Jeez, you’d think “real reporter” Zack Hoopes would do a little digging to see if Bryan’s agenda might be more than one of just “faith.” And let his readers know. If he was interested in doing more than a press release.

I’ll stick with Rev. Gilbert Tennent and a Founding era understanding, thank you:

He that suffers his life to be taken from him by one who has no authority for that purpose, when he might preserve it by defense, incurs the Guilt of self murder since God has enjoined him to seek the continuance of his life, and Nature itself teaches every creature to defend itself.

Or you could keep doing it Bryans’ way.

We’re the Only Ones Kidnapping Enough

Then her father did “what any dad would—he went to hug his crying kid,” says Kaplan. “And at that point he was arrested. With handcuffs.” [More]

What can I say but “New Jersey“?

Things sure have changed since I was his daughter’s age. Kids playing unsupervised outside was the norm back in the days before widespread Ritalin prescriptions, school shootings, “single mothers,” DEI, “groomers,” and “gender dysphoria”.

Just Like the Founders Intended

U.S.D.C. Judge Strikes Down Missouri’s ‘Second Amendment Preservation Act’ as Unconstitutional [More]

And just look at all those “staunch supporters of the Second Amendment” who voted to confirm him!

Funny: Nothing about Democrat cities and states refusing to cooperate with ICE…

Nothing to See Here

DHS has a program gathering domestic intelligence — and virtually no one knows about it [More]

In fairness, most of the DSM has been busy parroting the narrative du jour and they aren’t really intended or qualified to do any “real reporting.”

Besides, it’s not like most Americans will ever read this or grasp the implications and do something about them if they did.

We’re the Only Ones Cowing Enough

The FBI Targeted Patriotic Conservatives Exercising Their First Amendment Rights: ‘They’re All Bleeping Terrorists’ [More]

Right. The object here is to send an unmistakable intimidating message about who’s in charge in case anybody else is getting any ideas. That and smear any opposing ideology as the stuff of domestic terrorists.

I wonder if the people who really could be in charge, and in short order, are ever going to realize the disparity in numbers…?
