What We Do and Don’t Know about the Colorado Springs Maniac

What we know about the suspect in the Colorado Springs LGBTQ nightclub shooting [More]

We don’t know if he’s one of those haters they’re presuming he is and then extrapolating that to apply to the rest of us. The photo suggests otherwise, at least in terms of being one of those “white supremacists” we’re told are the greatest threat. Where are the photos of him? Did he or did he not use social media, and if so, got links, or are we once again seeing those being taken down?

By the same token, we also don’t know if he’s just another self-loather.

We DO know that, aside from a renewed “ban assault weapons” blood dance and the not wholly unexpected revelation that he’s been on police and prosecutor radar before for bizarrely violent behavior, the left is also exploiting this to make people afraid to criticize real “all ages” red flags being waved with the potential to provoke low-hanging fruit.

Everybody and their brother in the “gun rights” world are going to be writing about this so I’m going to hold back and wait for more about the @$$hole to become known. At that point, I’ll decide if I have something to say that I don’t see anyone else bringing up.

At this point, I’ll use this post throughout the day as an aggregator if something comes across the transom that’s relevant and new.

UPDATES

The gunman who allegedly killed five people at a Colorado LGBTQ club is reportedly the grandson of a Republican California lawmaker who compared the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol to the Revolutionary War. [More]

Hoo-boy, here we go. Funny, that much they can find out.

Under Oregon’s Measure 114, ‘Common Sense Gun Safety’ Means Shutting Down Gun Sales

“December 07, 2022 (Wednesday) will be the last day to purchase ANY firearm without a valid Oregon Firearm Purchase Permit.” [More]

The useful idiot dilettante billionaires bankrolling this abomination don’t care whose livelihoods are destroyed or whose rights are usurped as long as this wins them “progressive” accolades for being enlightened and benevolent. It’s not like they have to worry about what “those people” want.

Pay No Attention to That ‘Great Replacement Theory’ Only Conspiracy Nuts Buy Into

“…we’re short of workers. We have a population that is not reproducing on its own with the same level that it used to. The only way we’re going to have a great future in America is if we welcome … [and] get a path to citizenship for all 11 million, or however many undocumented there are here.” -Schumer [More]

And more welfare for those who refuse to work and/or are unfit to work due to behavioral choices and the utter failure of the Democrat/union-run “education system”…

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority

Yeah, Well, How Do They Vote?

Concealed carry permits surge to 22 million, 25 states don’t even require it [More]

You can’t tell it by the “red wave.”

That’s a distinction that not enough are making as they focus instead on being giddy over new gun owners.

Medieval Times

A New York City Police Department spokesman told the Washington Examiner that the man entered the building with a sword and ax and asked to “speak with someone in the politics section.” Security denied him, and he handed over his weapons when asked without incident. [More]

Now imagine if he’d been a serious threat. Is Times security up to the task, and if so, isn’t that interesting?

Bust Facts

“That means if you’re in the United States, you live here, you’re born and you spend your life here, your odds of your life ending by murder are one in 179,” the report cited James Agresti, author of the study and president and co-founder of Just Facts as saying. [More]

No, it doesn’t. That just spreads out a much higher probability if you live in an urban Democrat stronghold.

They do that to scare people into demanding “commonsense gun safety laws.”

It’s Not Like These Idiots Have a Clue

Summit County Council is partnering with the Summit County Sheriff’s Office, the Summit County Prosecutor’s Office and Arlington Church of God to host a gun buyback and safety initiative. [More]

Just in case anyone is wondering why the city went from “Rubber Capital of the World” to Crackron…

I’m wondering if there’s anything these morons can’t f*** up.

And thanks for the redistricting!
