Army - The War on Guns

Take the Gun?

A Scripps News investigation found more than two dozen law enforcement officers — including some of the shooter’s military superiors — were aware of his access to firearms and his violent threats ahead of the shooting, but no one followed through with actions to remove the shooter’s guns from his possession using extreme risk protection order laws.

So… their answer is to remove the guns but not the maniac?

I’m more of a life imitates art kinda guy…

This We’ll Defend

250 years. One Army. Minutemen. Doughboys. Rangers. Riflemen. Different uniforms. Same heart. They crossed rivers, climbed mountains, held ground. Their legacy isn’t a monument. It’s a challenge. All Soldier historical posts are consolidated here for easy browsing. [More]

Yes, Saturday was for more than the Regicide Rally. These are very good short write-ups.

You gotta wonder what these guys would have made of Emma.

All the King’s Horses…

U.S. Army post Fort Moore, formerly Fort Benning, is offering a $15,000 reward for information regarding more than 30 missing M17 pistols assumed stolen. [More]

The effectiveness of total gun control illustrated…

The coercion was strong.

For the rest, there was propaganda. Now let’s listen to those same celebrities on guns!

What Total Government Gun Control Looks Like

[More]

Just wait. They’ll turn up at crime scenes. And fuel more infringement hysteria.

If I may repeat myself:

Many of you know I used to do policies and procedures for a defense contractor, and we had inventory controls and secure stores protocols in place to account for and prevent stuff going “missing.” Quite simply, it’s not that hard to achieve.

So this is either inexcusable incompetence and laziness, or outright criminality. Either way, if this happened at an FFL’s place of business, he would be shuttered and facing charges.

On the plus side, even when they have total registration they can’t handle it. Of course, we’ve known that for some time.

What a way to dishonor a memory. I do wonder what he’d have thought of the coerced name change…

HOW THINGS WORK AROUND HERE

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Anyone not happy with anything on this site at any time will get 100% of all money they paid to me refunded, no questions asked. (No gratuities solicited or accepted.)

Comment House Rules

Keep them on topic. Trying to hijack threads really grinds my gears. No spam.
I moderate them so I’ll get to them when I can.
No threats against anyone except me. No fights–this is my place and if things get ugly, I treat unruly visitors the same way as I would in my home. Do not feed trolls–I’ll take out the trash.
Try to keep it clean.
I’m the final arbiter. If you don’t like the rules, start your own damn blog.

WarOnGuns Correspondents

Story tips received via email and social media messages will be credited. Just let me know how you want to be recognized (real name, first name/last initial, or screen name.)

Link Policy

I maintained a WogRoll at the old Blogspot place predicated on reciprocity with like-minded RKBA-related sites. Truth be told, I never got much in terms of site visits to make the effort worth the time. I may try to do something again in the future, but for now, my hands are more than full trying to get a new site started.

Advertising Disclosure

This is a placeholder for now because I have not done ads on the old blog for years. In case I ever start them up here, this will be the policy in effect: The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don’t think we’re getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you’re stupid, too. I have had a few ads on the old site in the past and may do so again if I think it’s worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn’t buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don’t mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now–you’re not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer without complete disclosure.

About “The Only Ones”

So named from a comment by DEA agent Lee Paige, who told a classroom full of kids he was “the only one” qualified to be armed and then promptly shot himself in the foot, the purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it’s also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank, or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they’re involved in gun-related incidents.
