We’re the Only Ones Framing Enough

Former Jackson County Sheriff’s Deputy Zachary Wester will spend the next 12 years in prison, after being found guilty of planting drugs on multiple motorists. [More]

This is another one of those stories that makes me rethink my aversion to public crucifixions. And in this case, they do call him  “a mighty man of God”…

Controlled Outreach

CNN is not your friend. [Watch]

Their audience is not made up of your friends. Comments under this video show not only were no minds changed, this solidified anti-gun biases even further and gave the antis something to publicize.

I’m sorry, but I think this was a mistake.

I can’t help but recall Phil Donahue and the militia

No Big Deal

No deal to end gun violence, U.S. Republican lawmaker says [More]

No, that’s not what he said, you lying sacks. He said they didn’t have a bill.

Is there any news Reuters doesn’t manipulate and color to elicit confirmation bias?

And hopefully, angry gun owners have scared the f*** out of the Vichycons and they’ll knock off this preemptive surrender sh!+.

A Right to a Speedy Trial Delayed is a Right to a Speedy Trial Denied

From His Prison Cell Oath Keepers Founder Stewart Rhodes Weighs in on Latest Jan. 6 Committee Show Trial Sessions and Bill Barr (AUDIO) [More]

Is it a paranoid conspiracy theory to wonder if some might not want the “seditious conspiracy” charges scrutinized in open court and that prison is just the place to keep that from happening?

Chinese Puzzle

A Chinese University of Wisconsin-Madison PhD student was attacked and roughed up by what appear to be four minority locals early last week — the third such assault in the last two weeks — but, at least so far, authorities say it’s not a hate crime. [More]

Let’s play “Musical Races” and see if they hold to that story.

And Now a Word from the Rope-Selling ‘Capitalists’

Edelman CEO on gun safety: 2nd Amendment ‘is just kind of an excuse for delaying’ [More]

Says the multimillionaire heir to a propaganda empire notorious for Astoruturf campaigns.

You “believe in the Second Amendment” my…eye.

You and the rest of you Dick’s.

The pitchforks are coming, overprivileged douchebag.

Freedom is Slavery

Harris Teeter responded by thanking the customer and telling her they would be discontinuing the “Freedom Series” items. [More]

I’ve been over to their Twitter feed and seen plenty of PO’d “Get woke go broke” posts, but not the one that set this in motion. It’d be nice to know who the cowardly “customer” that deleted her “complaint” was,  the company she keeps, and other “progressive” nonsense she routinely spews.

Ah, here we go: Doing the job the Faux News “real reporter” didn’t do. She deleted her account but that’s enough of a thread to pull to find out she’s “NC State Twitter Lead for @momsdemand.” And more, but I don’t dox.

Looks like Harris Teeter has picked its side. Not that there’s much incentive to change. Parent corporation Kroger asking Congress to enact more customer disarmament hasn’t seemed to hurt the bottom line.

Banking on Disarmament

This bank wants to track suspect credit card sales of guns and ammo. Why can’t it? [More]

Because we haven’t gone full commie yet?

And this is telling:

Amalgamated was founded by union workers nearly 100 years ago and bills itself as the nation’s oldest socially responsible bank.

Why doesn’t that surprise me?

More Like ‘Common Grave’

Former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas) said in an interview broadcast on Sunday that Texas needs to find “common ground” on gun control by respecting the Second Amendment while also requiring safety measures on firearms. [More]

The ground he wants us put in if he ever makes good on his “Hell yes” threat?

The only ones dumb enough to believe him are these idiots.
