How Now Brown Cow?

Study finds surprising number of Americans think chocolate milk comes from brown cows … a study in the 1990s found that nearly 20% of people did not know hamburgers are made from beef. [More]

We call such people “Democrats.” And their votes cancel yours.

This reminds me of an opinion shared with me by a friend and fellow manager from my former life who, as two asides, got his DCM M1 Garand with me and also happened to be black.

“They don’t know how to be poor,” he told me of the generations that subsisted on handouts from the state. He was recalling how his generation grew up working hard and having to make ends meet, including buying some food items in bulk and preparing meals that could feed a family for what it costs for one person to squander on Big Gulps and McDonald’s.

Point/Counterpoint

As predicted by the Four Boxes Diner, in a 2-1 decision the US Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit— via a opinion by judges Wood and Easterbrook— have upheld Illinois’s “assault weapon” ban. However there is a strong dissent here. This decision is no shock to Four Boxes Diner viewers because as I explained before, in my view, Judge Wood and Judge Easterbrook are unserious jurists on 2A issues and this was a given outcome (unfortunate and frustrating, yes, but entirely predictable).

Meanwhile, over in Fantasy Land…

Cert Granted

Cargill v. Garland [More]

Issue:

Whether a bump stock device is a “machinegun” as defined in 26 U.S.C. § 5845(b) because it is designed and intended for use in converting a rifle into a machinegun, i.e., into a weapon that fires “automatically more than one shot … by a single function of the trigger.”

Guess what that will determine.

You’re in the Army Now

Without warning, hundreds of noncommissioned officers were ordered via email to report to the recruiting school at Fort Knox, Kentucky, in less than a week, with hundreds more set to start at the school in December — a sudden unexpected move by the Army as the service scrambles to boost its recruiting force by 800 by the end of the year. [More]

But…but…but Lloyd said…

Everybody ready to draft Gen Zers? And if women are exempt again, will identifying as a trans woman be a “Get out of jail free” card?

Hey, I don’t suppose they’ll be able to spare any of the new guys down at the border…?

Shelter in place order lifted for MSAD 75 schools after threat; suspect low-hanging fruit moron in custody.

There, I fixed it for you.

And it looks to me like somebody decided this was a great opportunity not to let a “crisis” go to waste.

And conveniently:

Green’s Facebook account can no longer be found.

You Can’t Have Your Lekach and Eat It Too

“It’s a dark and dangerous time for Jews right now,” Panitch, who is the only Jewish American lawmaker in the Georgia legislature, said. “I’ve heard from people in the community who are afraid who have talked about other types of self-defense, including firearms,” Panitch said. “I have upgraded my weapons training as a result of what’s going on. [More]

And Georgia’s Democrat Jews, along with “Look at her– she’s one of us!” gun owners, are slaves to identity politics enough to believe this kapo fraud?

Tip of the Isisberg

“Using a Palestine passport, Abuayyash returned to the United States in June 2019. In January 2020, Abuayyash applied for an Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal, which is still pending. In August 2023, Abuayyash was approved for an employment authorization in the United States, allowing him to work in the U.S. until August 1, 2025. Abuayyash’s immigration status doesn’t allow him to possess or use firearms or ammunition,” FOX 26 stated. [More]

Semantic Gymnastics?

ATF Director Calls for Universal Background Checks, Assault Weapons Ban at Harvard IOP Forum [More]

Then there’s this:

And then we scan them, right? But as far as I know, we are the only customer of Adobe Acrobat that actually pays extra money to have search capability taken out of that software.

I see some influencers treating this like a newly admitted database violation “Gotcha.” I must not be grokking something because this has been out there for years:

How can a database be “non-searchable”? Trick question: The system can’t really be considered a database. (There is a reason the ATF uses the phrase “data systems” instead). There is no ability to search the text of a file, and no effort is made to tag files with identifiers that could later be used to sort and search. “We compare it to an electronic card catalog system, where records are digitally imaged, but not optimized for character recognition,” ATF spokesman Corey Ray says.

Am I completely missing a point?
