It Takes All Kinds

I’m glad he doesn’t want a gun, too.

The rest of his account is just as nutty.

Begging for Subjugation

LET’S be honest. He’s scared of the thing. [More]

That insightful essay has been around for 22 years and I’ve been sporadically promoting it ever since I first discovered it.

Take a few minutes to read it. Then take a few more to share it.

We’re the Only Ones Keyed Up Enough

Police later said they were able to secure the school and determined that a student had a keychain with what appeared to be small revolver on it. [More]

Hysteria-producing ignorance this profound is engineered and directed, and you can literally tell people this unknowledgeable anything to spook them into demanding magic. And that’s just the way the prohibitonists want it.

Clutching Pearls with Emily

Some days they shoot Glock pistols, like the weapons used in the mass shootings at Virginia Tech; the Charleston, South Carolina, church; and Thousand Oaks, California. Other days, they use semi-automatic rifles, similar to the ones used in the killings in Newtown, Connecticut; Las Vegas; Parkland, Florida; Buffalo, New York; and Uvalde, Texas. [More]

So it makes more “commonsense” not to train. Noted.

What kind of “ocracy” is government by hysterical cud chewers?

First Do Harm?

St. Louis pediatrician explains how to talk with your kids about mass violence … “This might be going online and finding organizations that promote school safety, that promote sensible gun legislation that promote things that will make kids feel that they’re doing something to prevent this ever happening again,” he said. [More]

Convince them you’re a pu$$y who can do nothing to protect them?

Goats have kids. I called mine cubs.

Advice to the Brainlorn

DEAR MISS MANNERS: I can’t believe I have to write this. When my daughter, who lives in a large city that had a recent mass shooting event, hosted a party at her home, one of the guests, who had recently obtained a concealed carry permit, brought his loaded gun. [More]

If it was concealed, how did she know?

I remember when Dear Abby gave some pretty good advice on this.

Now listen up, Buster, and listen up good.

Spooking the Herd

In the United States, we live in a perpetual state of panic to the degree that the sound of glass shattering in one hotel causes mass hysteria the entire length of one of America’s most famous streets. [More]

What you mean “we,” Kemosabe?

Sounds like she plans on going right back to being a sniveling ungulate demanding government do something about those who aren’t.

I Sent You Two Boats and a Helicopter*

“The last thing I’m going to do is take a free tri-tip sandwich from a right-wing extremist group,” said one resident, who asked not to be named because she feared provoking “armed and dangerous” people. [More]

Right– because if they knew they’d come kill you, you stupid goose.

Ignorance begets bigotry begets fear begets hate begets violence.

Knowledge begets rationally understanding how to defend yourself against all that.

‘I’m Not a Firearms Safety Trainer, But I Play One in My Office’

Many parents receptive to discussing gun safety with pediatricians [More]

So the title “Dr.” is all it takes for some idiots to bow to uncredentialed and false authority?

What other life and death decisions would they listen to their unqualified advice on? If they were going skydiving, would they trust an uncertified gunquack to pack their chute?

Precision Planning Pays Off

King, a teacher at a nearby school, also expressed concerns over the weapons found amid a recent wave of recent mass shootings. “To see weapons like that, rifles, stuff that could do damage, serious damage,” she said. “Weapons that could hurt anybody, especially children, from far away, with precision… That is just so incredibly disturbing.” [More]

Shotguns. And she teaches.

Ignorance exploitable through fear is precisely what the citizen disarmament swindlers are relying on.

No Dog in This Fight

Membership in the NRA is a deal breaker, said Shelter Hope Pet Shop owner Kim Sill. “We do not support those who believe that the 2nd amendment gives them the right to buy assault weapons,” Sill wrote on a website for the shelter in Thousand Oaks, California, about 40 miles northwest of Los Angeles. [More]

Fortunately, we don’t believe that either.

But just to be clear: Rather than adopt them out to gun owners, she’d rather the unadoptable ones be euthanized?
