Consider It an Occupational Risk

A member of Illinois Senate President Don Harmon’s staff was held at knife point by a man posing as a constituent inside of the senator’s Oak Park offices over the weekend. [More]

No, of course the staffer was in no position to do anything about it.

We’re the Only Ones Unreciprocating Enough

Fraternal Order of Police Urges Congress to Reject National Reciprocity [More]

This.

Because “Only Ones” are so much better than We the People in so many ways. But it does kinda make you wonder what they meant by that oath, and how many thought it was just a ceremonial formality.

The weight of the badge, eh, George?

Back the blue that won’t back you?

Since when do we ask the help how many horses and hounds we can own?

How about REPEAL LEOSA and put these uppity thugs back in their place?

Spider & the Fly

Communism Is a Scourge the World Over [More]

With multiple examples from Cuba, Nicaragua, the rest of Latin America, and Asia…

So, why are domestic enemies trying to impose it here, and why is every damn one of them a big proponent of a government monopoly of violence, sold to the useful idiots as “commonsense gun safety laws”?

Shall Be Questioned

Specifically, how does this Florida decision on Post Office carry from last year tie in with current practice resulting from the Texas case?

I looked and for whatever reason I don’t see where I mentioned this here before. Judge Mizelle made some interesting points– I especially liked considerations about robbers and Indians attacking mail-carrying stagecoaches and railway mail clerks with government-issued pistols.

And yeah, Bruen can trump Heller, and the proper period for text, history, and tradition is when the people accepted the Constitution as binding.

Democrats Endorse Oath Keepers!

Orders we will not obey,” eh?

So… when is ADL going to label them “Anti-Government Extremists Recruiting Military and Police”…

And when are the Democrats going to condemn enforcing citizen disarmament infringements?

Funny thing– instead of the Constitution they’re defending invaders…

And Play ‘The Truck Drivin’ Man’

Bozorov allegedly distributed “terrorist propaganda calling for jihad online” and recruited “terrorists to join the jihad movement.” Bozorov arrived in America in February 2023. The border patrol arrested Bozoroz, but the Biden administration released him into the country. It turns out that Pennsylvania, under Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro, gave him the commercial driver’s license. [More]

Pour me another cup of qavha…

Rigorous!

Ask the Expert

Expert firearm witness criticizes ATF’s treatment of Patrick “Tate” Adamiak [More]

Longtime advisor, earlier “Shockwave” developer, “small cadre” co-conspirator and all-around pal Len Savage weighs in.

The much-vaunted “Second Amendment Task Force” ought to consult with this guy on all ATF technology/rules-related matters.

Order in the Court

Update: Dell’Aquila et al vs NRA (11-14-15) [More]

Good summary on the case here:

Specifically, he alleges that the Defendants used donations to pay for exorbitant legal and advertising fees as well as luxurious fringe benefits for NRA executives.

NRA 2.0 notwithstanding, I’m still hearing “Not another dime.”

Sounds like the judge is pressuring for settlement and is saying if they don’t he will.

‘Shall Not Be Questioned’

Postal Service Employees are directed to refrain from confronting or engaging with the customer about the fact that they are carrying a firearm… Calls to local enforcement (911) should only be made if the person is interfering with operations or if the customer is acting in a manner that raises immediate safety or security concerns. [More]

The sign is still up.

Wakanda Forever!

Police spokesperson Nafi’u Abubakar Kotarkoshi told The Associated Press the gunmen had “sophisticated weapons” and exchanged fire with guards before abducting the girls. [More]

But…but…but:

“[C]ivilians are not allowed to possess machine-guns, military rifles and handguns … private possession of semi-automatic assault weapons [and] private possession of handguns (pistols and revolvers) is prohibited.”

Who thinks the solution is to import refugees here?

I’ve Looked at Clouds from Both Sides Now

Cloudflare down: ChatGPT, X among sites affected by global network issues [More]

Missing something…?

Cloudflare provides security, performance, and reliability services through its global network to several United States Federal Government agencies including the FBI, the U.S. Department of State…

Tell me this wasn’t a probe by a foreign adversary.

Tar Heel Treason

Vichycons are worse enemies than out-and-out lefties. The youngest of the lot is 74. Gun owners need to have challengers ready to run.

Then again, that’s presupposing the majority want to do anything more than complain after the fact. I’ll bet I’ve done more to promote GRNC efforts over the years than 99% of them, and being from Ohio, and with many other irons in the fire, I haven’t really done that much.

9.2K followers“…? Why isn’t it 92,000, and even that would be light.

Growing Pains

Pain is a disruptive event if suffered in the neonatal period, as infants’ pain threshold is lower than that of adults; this is why a minor procedure performed on newborns does not provoke minor pain. Luo et al report that “the pain threshold of newborns is 30%-50% lower than that of adults, and the pain tolerance is lower than that of children of other ages, making the pain perception more intense, lasting and profound for neonates.” [More]

How about for prenatals?
