Notes from the Resistance
As long as AP was in there, Israel could not bomb the place. [More]
I guess they didn’t know about Bill Clinton’s Rules of Engagement…

A new Oklahoma judge could lose her job for sending more than 500 texts to her bailiff during a murder trial, including messages mocking the prosecutor, praising the defense attorney and calling a key witness a liar. [More]
Before kneejerk accepting AP’s spin on things, I’m wondering how much of that is subjective and if running on “vowing to defend our constitution” plays any part…

Over the weekend, three Black people were shot to death by a white man wearing a mask and firing a weapon emblazoned with a swastika in Jacksonville, Florida. [More]
Gotta feed that “greatest threat” narrative.
And starve reality.
Everybody caught AP’s racist capitalization scam, right?
Associated Press Coverage of Courts, Climate Bankrolled by Dozens of Left-Wing Foundations [More]
When I think of the disclosures fedgov forces on justabloggers…
Figures there’d be a trousered ape exemption…

What these and other recent mass shootings share in common is they all involve suspects in their teens, highlighting what can be a deadly mix of teenage bravado and impulsiveness with access to guns. [More]
Funny. Not a word about what really produces and sustains such aberrations unfit to live in a free society and allows them to flourish.
What can I say but “Associated Press“? And “DSM“?
And despite the overt attempt to convince the voting public otherwise, the problem is not — and has never been — “easy access.”

After school shooting, Tennessee governor signs bill to shield gun firms further against lawsuits [More]
That’s supposed to give him a pass on his proposed Red Queen Laws?
And note how the AP couldn’t resist injecting “gun-free zone” exploitations into the mix and right out of the starting gate…?

Gun safety protesters carry caskets to Tennessee Capitol [More]
What the hell, “conservative” Faux News…? There’s nothing “gun safety” about these extremist ghouls…
If you’re going to run AP propaganda, at least file it under “Opinion.”

The shooter who killed three students and three staff members at a Christian school in Nashville legally bought seven weapons in recent years and hid the guns from their parents before carrying out the attack by firing indiscriminately at victims and spraying gunfire through doors and windows, police said Tuesday. [More]
“Their”?
How many people were in there?
Then again, we’re talking AP English.
I remember when that was a fun thing.

Media pillar admits ‘potential vulnerabilities,’ ‘security challenges’ in electronic pollbooks – But Associated Press frets about possible exploitation of issues by purveyors of “election conspiracies” and continues to advocate use of the devices. [More]
So if it’s corrupt they don’t want anybody acting on it?

“We recommend avoiding general and often dehumanizing ‘the’ labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled, the college-educated,” wrote the self-declared “must-have reference for writers, editors, students and professionals.” [More]
Can I still refer to AP as “the DSM“?

It’s not like Congress can’t protect identities when there is a legitimate reason while retaining the power to compel testimony under oath. To assume Schiff and fellow Democrats are the only ones who can be trusted is an obvious political move to keep claims from being verified while the freedom of citizens hangs in the balance. [More]
The press being watchdogs was supposed to mean for the people, not for the ruling elites.
More than 15K “red flag” gun seizures since 2020, but AP claims the law is “barely used” [More]
Speaking of “barely used,” how about the presumption of innocence until proven guilty?
And as long as we’re talking “woefully low” and “too small a pebble to make a ripple,” I wonder if anyone has compiled verifiable figures proving a documented number of saved lives attributable to “red flag” confiscations.

Immediately following passage of the “Untraceable Firearms” section of H.R. 7910, Gun Owners of America tweeted that the bill would “criminalize disassembling, cleaning, and re-assembling your gun without a firearm manufacturer’s license.” [More]
Gosh, if we can’t trust the Associated Press, who can we trust?
