Anyone who wants to get to the bottom of January 6 must focus on the key moment: The precise time the typical protest escalated into “the most investigated demonstration in FBI history,” defense attorney Steven Metcalf told TGP. [More]
Well, what kind of provocateurs would they be if they didn’t provoke?

It Pays to Advertise!
According to DPD, the firearms were wrapped with graphics advertising “We Buy Guns” and have not been recovered. The thief only had to break a window to get into the truck and grab the guns. [More]
Am I wrong to wonder if we’ve heard the last of what really went down here, and that it involved more than industrial-grade stupidity?

Not Now
The Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected a request to block state and local laws barring the sale of assault-style weapons in Illinois while a group of challenges to those laws continues in the lower courts. There were no dissents publicly recorded from the unsigned order, nor did the justices provide any explanation for their decision. [More]
I’m going to resist reading more into this for now.

Doing the Right Thing
Nevada Gov. Lombardo strikes down 3 gun control bills in first vetoes of session – NV governor said he does not support legislation that infringes on constitutional rights of Nevadans … One bill would have raised the eligible age to possess semiautomatic shotguns and assault weapons from 18 to 21. Another would have barred possession of a gun within 100 yards of an election site entrance with narrow exceptions, while also solidifying language meant to ban homemade “ghost guns.” A third bill would have prohibited owning a firearm within a decade of a gross misdemeanor or felony hate crime conviction.

Now Comes Miller Time
Gunmaker Heckler & Koch inserted themselves into the “woke beer wars” by showing support for Miller Lite’s cringeworthy feminist campaign against the use of “sexy women” in product promotions. HK praised Miller Lite for their decision not to employ sexy “bunnies” in their beer advertisements. The gunmaker took it a step further the following day, issuing a second tweet denouncing such “objectifying” advertising campaigns as “trash marketing.” [More]
I don’t have anything to do with either company except to note Miller has made its market choices and H&K always struck me as pricey disarmer armers.
That said, the use of tit girls in gun ads always struck me as disingenuous, pandering, and more than anything, existentially trivializing.
And forgive me if I also find the term “gentlemen’s club” oxymoronically absurd.

The groups involved say arrests and prosecutions are not the answer. Instead, the groups will work with the public to offer help paying rent, finding jobs, and other basic needs.[More]
Yes, further absolve them of the responsibilities of citizenship as bribes to not conduct themselves like psychopathic animals– we oughta see those homicide numbers plummet!
Those expectations don’t strike anyone as racist…?

We’re told the hateful, self-enamored ignoranus who penned this prejudiced screed is “one of UTNE Reader’s ’50 Visionaries Who Are Changing Our World.’”
If that isn’t the benchmark on what’s of lasting importance, I don’t know what is.

I don’t know where this was taken (UK?), but I have to assume in a place where the assumption is homeowners are not armed.
I’ll bet a parody video showing a justified response would get the poster canceled off more than just social media.
