So the Answer is Switching Teats? Really?

Bottom line is that in order for the Republican Party to attract more minority voters, Republicans need to do a much better job going into minority communities and educating these voters about what is actually going on in the country and what it means to them. [More]

I guess.

I always thought that just like providing for yourself, a responsibility of citizenship was to inform yourself, including determining which voices best comported with reality. Somebody comes along and wants to “give” you something, especially information, it pays to find out what’s in it for them.

An Uncollectable Win

GOA AND GOF SUE NEW YORK OVER NEW CONCEALED CARRY RESTRICTIONS [More]

A right delayed… and until they’re stopped, they’ll keep inventing new ways to deny and continue kicking the can down the road to nowhere.

This is what preemptive surrender Republicans don’t get. Democrats fight every inch of the way. They don’t give, they take. And then come back for more.

Windbag Control Freak Blows Hot Air but Shows Hand

                                                                               There’s something about cultists…

SCHIFF BILL TO REPEAL GUN INDUSTRY LIABILITY SHIELD PASSED OUT OF COMMITTEE [More]

It’s instructive to see that the goal really is total disarmament, but the creepy punk is just whoring for headlines here and knows this isn’t going anywhere:

Cosponsors: 72 Cosponsors (72 Democrats)

Prognosis2% chance of being enacted according to Skopos Labs

Figures he and his fellow seditious conspirators put the term “Equal Access” in the title of a bill designed to make guns too expensive for “those people.”

A Unilateral Action

Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz told Newsmax on Tuesday that the Jan. 6 committee ”does not want the public to hear the other side” of the narrative it is presenting in prime time.  “That’s why it didn’t permit any cross-examination, any confrontation, any due process, anything resembling fairness”… [More]

Which is why none of them are interested in publicly questioning why Michael Byrd was given a pass for executing Ashli Babbitt when we all know how this country would have erupted in flames had a white officer shot an unarmed black woman and then been “exonerated” in a behind-the-scenes CYA session.

“Republican” Liz Cheney wants it that way.

Shock and Awe

‘How RIDICULOUS do we look?’: World leaders are openly mocking America — and it’s really no wonder why [More]

Here is a truism, a law of nature, really: Potential predator aggressors perceiving a weaker deterrence are less deterred. That increases the risks of putting those doing the deterring in harm’s way.

So to those on Twitter praising the courage this took, these two won’t be the ones taking fire.

In the Spirit of Bipartisanship

Republicans got tougher sentences, Democrats got more gun control, and both got to pretend they were doing something to prevent mass shootings. [More]

The difference being, by removing another obstacle, the Democrats have succeeded once more incrementally advanced toward their totalitarian goal and the dumb @$$Republicans have “succeeded” once more in demotivating a core constituency in advance of an important election.

Chronic and Habitual LIARS


He deliberately spreads a narrative talking point lie about destructive power.

And the “expert” he turns to tells two flat-out lies– first, the VPC deception, that the grabbers refuse to acknowledge because they rely on ignorance:

The weapons’ menacing looks, coupled with the public’s confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons—anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun—can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons.

And secondly, the history behind the development of the AR-15, confirmed by ATF in a FOIA response:

“Colt sent a pilot model rifle (serial no. GX4968) to the BATF for civilian sale approval on Oct. 23, 1963. It was approved on Dec. 10, 1963, and sales of the ‘Model R6000 Colt AR-15 SP1 Sporter Rifle’ began on Jan 2, 1964,” one critic of the article contended. “The M16 wasn’t issued to infantry units until 1965 (as the XM16E1), wasn’t standardized as the M16A1 until 1967, and didn’t officially replace the M14 until 1969.”

Hit it, Sir Wilfrid…

Those Who Can’t

As a teacher, I attended the National Education Association convention last week, and my worst fears were confirmed… From what I observed, the NEA’s goal is for public education to be a training ground for political activism, while demonizing anyone—including students and their families—who does not share those same political and sociological beliefs. [More]

Good grief. How long have you been a teacher? Because I’m not one and I could have told you that decades ago.
