Return With Us Once More to Those Thrilling Days of Yesteryear

In Friday’s post about The Lone Ranger, I neglected to mention something that further illustrates what an inconsistent dolt Joe Biden is.

From my earlier AmmoLand article on “shoot to wound,” quoting Force Science Institute:

“When Michael Paladino, president of New York’s Detectives Endowment Association, showed [Biden] the bill he reportedly scoffed and suggested that it be called the ‘John Wayne Bill’ because of the unrealistic, movie-like sharpshooting skills it demands of officers.”

So when did he decide the new police standard should be leg shots?

Toothless Deterrence Redux

That’s because administration apparatchiks know from experience that they can retaliate against whistleblowers and House Oversight Republicans will make self-serving noises but no one responsible will actually end up accountable and punished.

Bass Pro Shop’s Background Check Policy Raises Questions [More]

After seeing how Morehouse was retaliated against with a bend-and-spread-’em audit that had the goal of finding something, anything, to revoke its FFL, and noting the anal levels ATF stoops to over “Don’t Lie for the Other Guy” (enthusiastically partnered with by NSSF), over-cautiousness is inevitable, especially where corporate timidity over anything controversial is the rule.

What does it say about the state of things when all you have to do is read the headline to know that structural sophism and the resultant ubiquitous sociopathic sense of entitlement were involved?

FAFO

Police said over ten days, they received similar reports of robberies in the Fan, Byrd Park, and Carytown areas with what appeared to be the same suspects. [More]

You know what would stop that real quick?

Let “progressives” break things down badly enough and look for some to get fed up. It’s either that or this, which I’d argue is more effective and humane.

By the way, I was at Bannack last week– it’s a ghost town/state park now, but the gallows are still there. I took this from near the cemetery at the top of a large hill overlooking the site:

Return With Us Now to Those Thrilling Days of Yesteryear

The Lone Ranger Had Good Life Lessons But Bad Gun Advice [More]

You don’t say.

I met him when I was a boy. My Dad was plant manager for BF Goodrich in Tehran, Iran for five years and we were on home leave circa 1962, staying in a motel near Akron, Ohio. Moore was doing an appearance at a local amusement park. He occupied the room next to ours for 2-3 days as I recall, and was very conscientious about presenting himself to us children as kind and every bit what we expected.

But yeah, “Shoot to wound” had to be called out.

Just the Ammo They Need

The State does not dispute that California’s unworkable ammunition purchasing laws have stopped thousands of people who are legally eligible to buy ammunition from buying it. But, amazingly, the State is now arguing that the case should not move forward because CRPA does not have legal “standing” to challenge the law because its members have not themselves encountered these problems. That’s nonsense, of course. But to assist CRPA in demonstrating how the law continues to block eligible people, particularly CRPA members, from buying ammunition, CRPA needs declarations from members and supporters evidencing any problems you have recently faced when trying to buy ammunition.

Give them all the ammunition they need to blow this case wide open.
