Making the News
Around 7 a.m., at the corner of Clark and Hubbard, while our reporter was in the middle of a live report about Chicago gun violence, a man walked up and pointed what appeared to be a firearm at our crew. [More]
Could it be that what is needed is feral moron control?

Houston, We Have a Problem
Despite accusing Democrats of constantly trying to manipulate mass shootings for political gain, several senior GOP figures — including ex-President Donald Trump — are expected to give speeches at the National Rifle Association-Institute for Legislative Action’s annual leadership forum on Friday. [More]
According to “real reporter” Stephen Collinson, CNN’s resident White House propagandist, defending yourself against political attacks is “politicizing” an issue, and thus “hypocrisy.”
It’s the same lying “rationale” that says defending yourself against physical attack is “vigilantism.”
Push back against bullies and they call you a bully. When they’re not calling you a Nazi…
The media is reveling in the “outrage” they’re helping to inflame. You can bet there are plenty hoping things get out of hand and plenty who will consider it humorous “karma” if NRA members are hurt or worse.
UPDATE: Speaking of politicizing…

‘Doing Something’ in Wake of Uvalde Looks Like GOP ‘Moderates’ Caving on Red Flags
Democrats, we don’t need to concern ourselves with, at least for now—assume they’re all for whatever disarmament edicts they can get whenever they can get them. It’s the Republicans gun owners need to focus on, and there are few surprises here… [More]
Betraying gun owners and drowning the fire in their bellies will break up the anticipated wave before it hits the shore.

Don’t Let Dettelbach Slip in Under the Radar
[T]he Senate Judiciary Committee considered the nomination of Steve Dettelbach to run the ATF during a hearing on Wednesday. [More]
With everything going on, this one isn’t getting the scrutiny it needs, meaning Republicans aren’t getting the scrutiny they need.
It’s not surprising that he can’t define “assault weapon,” but let’s not forget all the other questions.

Makin’ Whoopi
Whoopi called on American citizens to call the cops on their own neighbors and friends if their arsenal is “too big.” “Does your neighbor have too big an arsenal? Call the cops!” Whoopi shouted as she falsely claimed the 2nd Amendment doesn’t cover AR-15s. [More]
Punch Republicans and SWAT gun owners? I guess when you’ve given yourself so many abortions you need to wear undergaskets, blaming and hating others is the only way to keep from looking inward.
Blast from the Past?
Two teens arrested in ‘mass casualty’ plot targeting a Uvalde middle school – One of the students had numerous writings and drawings which depicted weapons capable of causing mass destruction. He wrote about being “God-like” and killing police and other persons. [More]
That’s from 2018. I never have understood keeping extreme public danger reptiles like this anonymous due to age.
Anybody know what ultimately happened to them and where they are now?
UPDATE:
Then there’s this:
Uvalde CISD issued a statement on Thursday: Our school district is committed to the safety and education of all our students and we want to clearly communicate about safety issues when they arise. One of our Morales Junior High students was experiencing a crisis. Upon rendering aid and support, the student revealed a future plan to conduct a school shooting in the year of 2022…

What’s the Difference Between an Academic Fraud and a F…ing Liar?
But if you are going to — listen, now, kids — advocate public policies based on the particular characteristics of particular firearms, then you have an intellectual and moral responsibility to be honest about those characteristics and not misrepresent them, rather than do as Professor Cornell has done and simply invent some scientific-sounding fiction to bolster your weak rhetorical case.

Now there’s a surprise.
Hey, what awards has that guy won? I’m thinking about how they took the Bancroft Prize from Michael Bellesiles and wondering if organizations can be shamed anymore or if they’re just too in-your-face woke to care.

Speaking of Sick SOBs
There are several here who fit the definition of “Sick Son of a Bitch” in this picture, but none go by the name of Beto. Look instead at the freaks who keep gutting gun laws so 18 year olds can buy weapons designed for war to go into schools and slaughter babies. THAT is sick. [More]

The Fudd’s Lament
For decades, these firearms manufacturers have—in both subtle and not-so-subtle ways—convinced white people that they need to buy arsenals to protect themselves from people of color. [More]
Firearms manufacturers had nothing to do with it. That’s all on the cultural terraformers and their destructive transformational policies.
The guy doesn’t have a clue on why we have a Second Amendment. Good idea, though on “mak[ing] firearms education a national priority,” except the teachers’ unions would no doubt screw it up.

“Every single one of our officers now has an M4 platform system which is comparable to the AR 15 and the necessary rounds to make sure that we’re going to be successful eliminating this threat,” said Tony.
The sheriff said for real impact, the laws need to be changed.
“I’ve heard this narrative for years now that, well, the AR 15 is a sport weapon, it’s a match weapon, you can use it for all of these things. No, it’s a combat ready weapon designed to destroy,” he said. [More]
You’re coming through loud and clear, sheriff…
