Ramaswamy v. Acton: Choice is clear on gun rights, even if Dr. Lockdown masks her views [More]

We know she’ll be a disaster, and I guess how big of one depends on how feckless Republicans do.

He’s not my first choice, and I have real problems with his “loony Heritage American beer-guzzling, burger-gobbling beach bums venerated mediocrity over excellence” ingratitude and arrogance. And I’m not the only one.

It’s not so much a matter of being pure, and of the perfect being the enemy of the good, as it is the legitimate question that no “gun groups” will acknowledge, let alone answer: Who, in the long run, will end up doing the most damage to 2A?

I guess because Amy will be open borders/pathway to citizenship amnesty and Vivek will just be more H-1Bs, that kind of answers it, but that doesn’t mean I have to like the “choices” being offered. And I also have to weigh in how rewarding Vichycons out of lesser-of-two-evils desperation has gotten us to where we are now.

I guess when I’m in the booth I’ll make my choice, and then see, based on results, whether it made any difference.

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

Will any of Chardonamy’s behavioral issues be enough to dissuade Democrat voters?

Hold Our Beer, Big Brother

Eyeofsauron

A joint investigation by 404 Media and WIRED, based on data recovered from a physically removed Flock camera, found that its on-device software explicitly detects people as well as vehicles, bicycles, and license plates. Separately, Washington DC’s police union says the Metropolitan Police Department used Flock data to track officers under Internal Affairs investigation without their knowledge. [More]

So, what else could they be using it for?

Hey, it’s for the greater good.

No Fudd Like an Old Fudd

A Maryland hunter is accused of fatally shooting a woman after mistaking her for a deer while she walked through a Delaware field with her children, according to state police. [More]

Not that it excuses anything, but I’d think this should be a simple question to answer and wonder why it’s not.

We’re the Only Ones Wrist-Slapped Enough

He was charged with participating in a scheme to issue gun permits in exchange for San Jose Sharks hockey game tickets, access to a luxury suite at the SAP Center, and hundreds of Apple iPads. The bribes were given to [Sheriff Laurie] Smith and her guests, prosecutors said. Under conditions of his plea, Sung surrendered his California peace officer certification and agreed to complete 400 hours of community service.[More]

The greedy f_s were running a conspiracy that denied citizens who didn’t pony up for “may/and then again may not issue” extortion their rights and placing lives in jeopardy under color of authority — and no one has gone to jail, including briber/anti-gun Apple CEO Tim Smith, DA Jeff Rosen.

Don’t speak to us about your fearless prosecutions of fellow big club members. And don'[t speak to us about how “Rick Sung dedicated twenty years of his life to serving the people of Santa Clara County,” defense flack– he didn’t just wake up one morning and decide he could get away with in-your-face corruption. His “twenty years of [self] service” experience told him he could get away with it. That and it set the tone for everyone under him and Laurie.

And note just dropping it will prevent further probes into whether perennially virtue-signaling-on-race California Democrats discriminated on who gets approved for permits.

All These Things Will I Give Thee, if Thou Wilt Fall Down and Worship Me

James Talarico Said Failure to Restrict AR-15s Is ‘Ignoring God’s Messengers’ [More]

Would that be the “god” who “hates Christianity” his atheist-supporting minister promotes?

Disarming us is an unholy crusade with these zealots.

An Uncommon Argument

Trap

Because the “in common use” test looks to arms that are in common use today, that test automatically and necessarily protects existing technology, and addresses any contemporary societal concerns stemming from such modern technology. [More]

Note it doesn’t say a word about arms withheld from common use because they’re reserved for the standing army, or future technological developments, which by definition are of exclusive and limited use.

I prefer Mr. Cuccinelli’s assessment.

We’re the Only Ones Complied with Enough

The video shows Pysher clearly raising his hands in the air and walking towards Cpl. Farrell, officials said. Cpl. Farrell then yelled, “Stop or I’ll…” and then fired two shots before finishing his sentence, shooting Pysher twice in the chest… “At the time of the shooting, the officer was a safe distance from Pysher behind a car, and the victim had his hands in the air and did not possess any type of weapon.

We’re the Only Ones Off-Road Enough

A Stillwater man is suing the Grady County Sheriff’s Office to recover his stolen four-wheeler, which the department titled in its name and refuses to return… “This is exactly why people hate their government.” [More]

The sheriff knows damn well vehicles not taken on public roads don’t need to be registered.

So naturally, he doubles down with a non sequitur, with no shortage of kapos praising his outburst.

Because Music Brings Us Together

Sheranmacklemore

Mayor of Arab-majority city invites Macklemore to perform free concert after anti-Israel uproar [More]

“Yeah, f*** America!”

Followed up by anyone not embracing that being canceled and publicly humiliated in extended struggle sessions and desperately apologizing in the name of “unity,” as officially defined by a privileged UK music celebrity.

Maybe Ranjit, Kostas, and Hannah would like to expound on what influences Dearborn yutes will have to bring them into the American heritage fold over the next generation, when even “Republican” H-1B champs call that whole idea “loony.”

The Converse of Fighting Racism

Converse pulls latest shoes ad after critics accuse of sharing ‘racist’ and ‘reckless’ KKK imagery [More]

These are three same rope-selling capitalists who sponsored “the nation’s PREMIER gun violence prevention program,” naturally using a death threat-making, coach-choking spokesman.

What a surprise: abuse of the minorities their virtue signaling is claiming to champion.

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?

‘Assault on Our Sovereignty’: How George Soros Funds Foreign Government Lawsuits Against American Gun Makers [More]

Additional insights:

And it looks like the frostbacks want in on the action.

“84.6% of crime guns in Canada are from the U.S.” reminds me of how the grabbers pulled the same scam to set up Gunwalker.

To Have and to Hold

The law that says you cannot take possession of a handgun in a state in which you are not a resident. That federal law has just been declared unconstitutional under the Second Amendment… [Watch]

My guess is most FFLs are going to wait to see how things play out before they jump on this.
