Iran - The War on Guns

What Goes Around Comes Around…

Bloodbath as explosion kills more than 100 at Iranian ceremony… [More]

People who live in glass houses ‘n all…

People with something to lose is the key for people who don’t fear losing the little they have left. And that holds especially true for people who have much to lose.

Strange, how that makes me think of Clausewitz…

And it all seems applicable here, as well…

Say, who wants to bring in some “refugees”?

Imams Demand Action

Gunmen kill 11 victims, including police officers, injure others during attack on Iranian police station [More]

Licensing, registration, background checks, training… what’s not to love, right?

What’s in YOUR Arsenal?

Has anybody checked the “storage areas” yet?

Casus Belli?

“As President Biden has made clear, we will take all necessary measures to defend our people and will always respond at a time and place of our choosing,” Secretary Austin continued. [More]

Unless it’s within our borders.

Aside from leaving those open and/or rigorously admitting confederates of the people we’re taking out elsewhere, we’re also set on simultaneously disarming you and setting known predators loose to further our case for that.

What’s the foreign entanglement worth me and mine dying for over there, anyway? That’s the litmus test I use before expecting it from someone else.

Well, if they’re freedom lovers, what’s in it for him?

Dissident: ‘Iranian women are furious’ over headscarf death [More]

Meanwhile, stupid American women can’t wait to put theirs on as a sign of solidarity.

At least Iran is “easing up” on guns with “commonsense tyrant safety laws.”

Back when I lived there, I could ride my bike right into a market scene from Indiana Jones with my Daisy strapped to my shoulder and no one hassled me. It came in handy on more than one occasion to discourage the bolder jube dogs from coming any closer.

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.
