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.

Dead-Tree Edition

I talked about “branching out” after the storm. [More]

Yesterday, while enjoying Father’s day by doing six hours of damn yard work, younger feral son Qusay came over on his day off to wish me well and noticed the tree was continuing to split:

There was a lot of weight on that and the slightest swaying in the breeze could have brought the whole thing down, taking down power lines, probably snapping the poles, and doing God-knows-what if a driver happened by at the wrong second.

The city (after I tracked somebody down on Sunday) agreed it was an emergency danger and sent a crew out to take the top off:

Now I’m waiting for my guy to come out and give me a bid on clearing the remains out and another on taking out the rest of the tree if it can’t be saved, my guess being there’s not much point in trying.

The joys of home ownership…

No One Aids Like Gascon…

‘He’s the criminals’ champion’: LA Deputy DA Shea Sanna slams his woke boss George Gascon for encouraging thugs to ‘commit more crimes’ amid a spate of soft sentences – as DA faces a recall [More]

True, but we’re still talking ab0ut an “Only Ones” culture. Don’t expect anyone to publicly consider armed citizens to be anything but part of the problem.

They Don’t Sound So Tough When They’re Howling

This know-it-all, who claims “many years of lethal force training,”  says “No.” I’d like to know who his idiot trainer was and how many students his bullsh!+ advice has endangered so we can warn people about him.

Maybe we should ask “Real Man” how he’d have handled it…

Ice Capades

In his living room, in front of a Tampa Bay Lightning meeting, a supporter had a funny misadventure. [More]

SWATted him. Ha ha. Then he’d have been the one on ice.

It’s not like “Only Ones” aren’t extra cautious in “domestic disputes,” with the Number One Priority being to make it home at the end of their shift.

It’s not like people haven’t been shot and killed as a result.

Great Expectations

In a long Twitter thread on Thursday, a Marquette University assistant professor of journalism suggested young reporters may fabricate stories because newspaper journalism standards are too high and because minority reporters might feel racism on the job. [More]

So it’s OK for minorities to be corrupt and incompetent in whatever job they undertake because “white supremacy”…? Matter of fact, that calls for hiring and promotion preferences!

No racism there.

We’re the Only Ones Inexplicable Enough

Back the Yellow!

Uvalde Police Went 77 Minutes Without Trying To Open The Door Where A Shooter Killed 19 Children and 2 Adults [More]

But they not only have no duty to protect, they maintain they have no duty to explain.

UPDATE:

Police didn’t try to open doors to Uvalde classrooms with shooter inside [More]

No wonder these cowardly morons have lawyered up.
