Burden of Proof

…they have no database, they have no digital way, they have no searchable function, they just have someone that goes manually piece by piece by piece looking for a serial number amongst a billion two-page documents, front and back, and they found it in 30 minutes… [Watch]

Here’s the CNN piece.

Sorry, I don’t doubt there are violations, but I’m not buying this as proof. ATF didn’t have to go through billions of records. They knew the manufacturer and the serial number ID’d FFL it was sent to and the date, and since the business had closed and ATF had its records on site, a search with several people looking could very well have been done in that time. If it was still an active FFL, inspectors going to the shop would have taken a bit longer, but they’d have still gotten it done in short order.

Half-Full Faith and Credit

“Imagine your surprise if you are just minding your own business, wherever you are, Ohio, Alabama, Texas, and all of a sudden, your local constable is, like, “Guess what sucker, California says you’re not allowed to have any guns anymore, give them up.” [Watch]

Gun laws don’t work both ways, so your permit and lawful ownership won’t be recognized there.

Heads they win, tails you lose.

Everywhere, in Everytown!

The AR-15 rifle, billed as “America’s rifle” by the National Rifle Association, has been commonly used by mass shooters and is one of the most ubiquitous weapons in the United States. [More]

Thanks for admitting its “in common use” with all that implies.

No Thanks to Vichycons

After helping the Democrats pass the bill, the Oregon House Republicans, in a cynical and disgraceful display of bait and switch, posed on the Capitol steps with a giant fake check that they said was going to be used for a lawsuit against the bill they had just helped pass…. Firearms Policy Coalition has announced their intention to fight this plainly unconstitutional law. They are currently seeking Oregon residents who could be plaintiffs in the case. This could be the fight so many have been waiting for. [More]

I’m if there are any creatures more self-servingly useless than Oregon establishment “Republicans”…

In the Spirit of Aloha

Hawaii’s Democrat Gov. Signs Bill Barring People Under the Age of 21 from Buying or Possessing Ammunition [More]

The Kapu Tradition lives on in the post-Igeocracy.

They know they’ll end up losing and the money could be spent on needed things, but they don’t care. And no one will hold them to account because stupid citizenship malpractitioners dominate the population.

Make Book on It

Victor Davis Hanson’s latest book is a macabre warning to an aging America as it closes in on its 250th birthday. The warning comes in the form of a graphic depiction of the hideousness of war and the terrifying state of those who suffer ignominious defeat. [More]

Good news– it looks my library, so maybe yours, isn’t refusing to stock it.

Wish I could say the same for stuff by Matt Bracken.

The Truth Will Out

Is Big Pharma Behind Copyright Claims in Legal Battle for Covenant Shooter’s Documents? [More]

That or the hospital where the shrink who kept mum worked, or its insurance carrier, or…

Inquiring minds want to know.

I just can’t imagine the type of parent who would accept a monetary payment in exchange for suppressing the truth. And without a legal will issued by a person of sound mind, I’m not seeing how the parents claiming copyright ownership is anything but a hollow bluff.

Related UPDATE

Looks like I’m not the only one who thinks the copyright excuse doesn’t hold water.

Hoist with Their Own Petard

Two days later, a bunch of these assholes find out actions have consequences, and after a decade of having it used against them, the right has finally figured out how to use cancel culture themselves. Some of these assholes are now getting outed, and fired by their employers who don’t want the PR nightmare of fucking psychopaths working for them. [More]

Turnabout seems like more than fair play to me.

Which bring me to an idea I had when I saw this pinned tweet from Kathy Griffin:

Remember how many venues dropped her like a hot potato for this?

My guess is it wouldn’t be hard at all to find the X pages for each of the upcoming venues, post it on their feed, and very publicly ask them if they’re ready for the outrage coming their way.

An Open Secret

The programme can now reveal the information was compiled as part of a secretive project aiming to identify millions of gun owners in America who could be targeted with pro-gun rights messages in the lead-up to the 2016 election campaign. [More]

They’re trying to ID gun owners…? Really…?

Unheard of, this business of political campaigns soliciting special interest constituencies!

What the DSM is really trying to do here with this new narrative talking point is sow dissent and advance the meme that the wannabe low-hanging fruit patsy was registered a Republican — without mentioning he donated to a hardcore Democrat operation exploiting PA’s closed primary.

Trump Assassination Attempt Brings New Urgency for RNC to Affirm Support for 2nd Amendment

Giving Trump and the Republicans all the ammo they need to defeat gun grabber arguments is well within the skill set of the newly formed Gun Owners for Trump coalition… [More]

We’ve got to do more than hope his resolve is strengthened. There are people who can help him not just repel attacks on our rights, but promote and advance them with the independents both sides are competing for — if he will let them.

The Stupid… It Burns…

The analogy of a critical thinking-debilitating virus deliberately released into a target demographic hardly seems far-fetched.

Wisdom from Wakanda

ignored him because trump & secrete service staged theatrics to win idiots’ vote🇺🇸 https://t.co/gdSs7152GE — Prof. Mokoko (@SethunyaMokoko) July 14, 2024 [More]

Lesotho, eh?

With His Majesty King Letsie III to serve as the exemplar of smarter politics…?

Yeah, sounds like ol’ Mokoko’s got a lot to teach us.

It might be fair to ask how he attained such a privileged international education coming from a land of such profound poverty, and if that might account for his self-perception of superiority…?

Life in the Bubble

‘I Didn’t See That Coming’: ‘Daily Show’ Correspondent Shocked ‘Black Folks Do F*ck With Trump’ [More]

For all their posturing as urban sophisticates, DSM personalities really are just a bunch of ignorant provincial bigots.

We know what they’re really like– we’ve seen what they say and weigh that against reality. They just know what they’ve been told we’re like, and are conditioned to automatically tune out anything conflicting with the narrative.

That’s an advantage. We’re not shocked by what we expect.

It’s also frustrating as hell, that anyone can be this thick.
