Brian Thompson - The War on Guns

Poor Little Rich Kid

Tracing the powerful family roots of suspected killer Luigi Mangione [More]

And none of them recognized him…?

Mom said she couldn’t be sure and they had to come to her…?

Gun Prohibitionist Warren Shows Creepy Hypocrisy by Minimizing CEO’s Assassination

The unfortunate CEO is a bellwether of what’s coming if Marxist citizen disarmers have their way. Elizabeth Warren and fellow gun prohibitionists are clearing that way. [More]

What’s the difference between mainstream Massachussetts Democrats and in-your-face Marxists?

Asking for a friend?

Here It Comes

Mangione had a ghost gun, a type of weapon that can be assembled at home from parts without a serial number, making them difficult to trace, investigators said. [More]

That and the suppressor will overshadow that he “raised in Maryland, has ties to San Francisco and a last known address in Honolulu, Hawaii,” Democrat strongholds all.

This is apparently his X feed.

And this appears to be his Facebook.

I’m going to look around before they’re deactivated, and gotta say I’m surprised they haven’t been.

A Person of Interest

Person of interest in fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson caught with manifesto, gun and fake ID at McDonald’s [More]

I’d say that rules out the “professional hit man” speculation, unless you add the qualifier “dumb @$$ professional hit man.”

Shall we guess political sympathies? I guess what’s in the manifesto will determine how soon they let us know what it says.

Something Must Be Done!

Health insurance companies have started removing images of their leadership teams from their websites following the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. [More]

And that will do what?

Leave it to rope-selling capitalists to suggest this old Stalinist trick.

There are plenty of other ways to find out and the internet is forever.

Self-styled authorities chasing after illusions not only doesn’t work, it’s harmful.

Death Wish

“And people wonder why we want these executives dead”… [More]

I wonder what she wants for gun owners…

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.
