Shameless Plug

The Feb. 2026 issue of Firearms News, with my “FOP and IACP Show ‘Only Ones’ Arrogance…” column on page 10, is now available at diverse and inclusive newsstands throughout the Republic.

Of course, you could always subscribe…

Meanwhile, Over on the Other Side of the Equation:

The editor just forwarded an email from corporate:

I just received a call from [redacted] and he said that he was not going to renew his subscription because David Codrea is always spouting anti-Trump rhetoric and is a liberal in disguise.

Funny. He never said what I got wrong.

Another angry reader canceled over this.

Swell duds, ain’t they?

Hey, at least they didn’t call me a Trojan Horse…

Technical Difficulties

I woke up to the “429 Too many requests” error message this morning and could not access the site. Not the first time this has happened…

I contacted tech support and they “cleared the server end cache and killed the background process to resolve the issue.”

I’d say lemme know if you’re experiencing this issue, but if you’re reading this, you’re not.

Con Game

Stop Idaho Federal Constitutional Convention Resolutions HCR 23 and HCR 25 [More]

It would help if they had a date on this and ID’d who the Republicans pushing this are.

I can’t believe anyone representing himself as a “conservative” is still backing this nonsense. It’s tantamount to a proclamation that they can come up with magic words to control communists, and that the same Democrat states that ignore SCOTUS on Bruen with impunity will suddenly fall in line.

First You Cry

Look who wants to send armed men to come for your guns. [Watch]

I’d be interested in knowing who this spoiled child is and why he believes his opinion matters to any men. Anybody know? Does he have a following?

Actually, what I find most disturbing is the amount of gun owners fixated on “10 minutes,” like that’s the issue here.

The THING That Would Not Engage

We already saw it wouldn’t leave.

This is telling:

In addition to their website’s “contact us” and “media inquiries” buttons being disconnected, replies their X posts are disabled. Like all gun control groups, they like preaching to the choir.

I’d argue “mob,” not “choir,” but it’s a valid observation. Check it out:

Their whole purpose, at least their stated one, is to “foster a collaborative community to ensure our policies are shaped by comprehensive input,” yet they shut off inputs from the very community they purport to speak for. At least we see what they mean when they say they’re “taking back the conversation.”

Tell us they’re AstroTurf phonies without telling us they’re AstroTurf phonies. Of course, the fact that they’ve been around for years now, gotten all kinds of free publicity, and have only amassed 11K X followers in all that time, an unknown percentage being the people whose comments they muzzle, is our first clue.

The reason for the censorship, of course, is clear– every time they post something they get their @$$e$ handed to them in the ratioing, but that just goes to confirm they’re false fronts. The gun groups don’t have to do that and have more than enough supporters to drown out trolls or take them on on their own turf.

That pretty much proves out one other comment: Yes, in addition to being frauds, they’re cowards.

Enemy Strength

Republican women are 14% more likely to own guns than Democrat men. [More]

That may not be a fair metric since one party knows how to define genders. Still, it’s telling.

And it also illustrates why new gun owners are nothing to crow about.

In terms of total numbers, I wouldn’t be starting any civil wars if I were that outgunned…

ATF Warns of Hoax Homeland Security Letter ‘Suspending Second Amendment’

This is obviously a clumsy attempt at stirring the pot and creating divisions between the administration and Second Amendment supporters. [More]

So… are trolls just doing it for kicks, or is there something more insidious at play here?

Meanwhile, Across the Pond

Cleared: The Palestine Action six whose raid on defence firm left woman police officer with a fractured spine [More]

Some aren’t taking the news very well.

Maybe if they weren’t willing to arrest their countrymen for social media posts there’d be a little more sympathy.

And as for the commies, they’ll get theirs. I don’t believe any of them will reach the end of the trail being anything but frustrated and miserable if they never repent.

Parent/Teacher Day

According to multiple sources who were in the room but requested we not identify them, the terrorism training involved dozens of actors, brought in by the school board, to act as Loudoun County parents. Those pretend “parents” sat in the gallery in the school board meeting room as actual families normally would. In this training, one of the parents has a gun. The actors were screaming and yelling and running around the room, witnesses said. School board members and staff were instructed to “run, hide, and fight,” much the same as training provided to students in the event of an active shooter scenario. [More]

YOU are the enemy to be put down.

And that’s what they’re teaching your kids.

Can We All Get Along?

However, the students called the university police when one user threatened gun violence to stop the group’s event.  In response to a question asking how long TPUSA will be on campus, the user wrote, “until I come with my gun.” Another user responded, saying, “I’ll be there to prevent anyone from stopping you.” A different user on Yik Yak wrote that “Anyone who supports the current administration doesn’t deserve to be alive.” [More]

Told ya Trump’s just an avatar.

It’s not just his head Kathy’s after.

And what do you suppose they want to do with that information?

But I Have Promises to Keep…

NOW – Trump says he is adjusting his mass deportations policy to only go into cities if the mayors or governors “ask” and “say please,” adding, “I don’t want to go and force ourselves into a city, even if their numbers are terrible.” [More]

And:

NOW – Reporter: “Is your mission now to deport everyone who came in illegally?”

Trump: “We are totally focused on criminals, really bad criminals. Now you could say people that came in illegally are criminals, but I’m talking about murderers from different countries.” [More]

Any word on when we can expect those band uniforms…?

Recollections of Decades-Old Crime Omit Key Details about Assailant

With that as a backdrop, in between capitalizing on her notoriety through selling her story and her sex tapes, Fisher served a brief stint as an opinion columnist, where she advocated for the government disarming those of us who haven’t shot innocent people in the face.[More]

Y’ever notice how those who can’t — or won’t — control themselves are so obsessed with controlling the rest of us?

Today’s Low-Hanging Fruit Report

Teen linked to neo-Nazi satanic hate group accused of planning mass shooting at Wimauma church: HCSO [More]

So, by definition, a leftist. And “Pagan”: Talk about an aptronym!

What did Father Flanagan say?

How do they find this crap? It’s not like there’s a TikTok page… I grok this stuff as much as I do crypto…

Glad to see he’s a “privileged” teen, to where they can show his face.
