Kentucky - The War on Guns

Welcome to the Party, Pals

Kentucky HB 749 Follows West Virginia in Expanding Citizens’ Access to Modern Machine Guns [More]

Because a militia of the whole people without weapons war makes no sense.

Speaking of Creepy Stalkers…

“I’m going to be honest,” state Rep. Sarah Stalker said during a meeting of the Kentucky General Assembly’s Interim Joint Committee on Education Tuesday. “I don’t feel good about being White every day, for a lot of reasons.” [More]

You didn’t think it’s just guns these people are against…?

And they’re the ones who enable and abet public schools programming children to be ashamed of and loathe their heritage and their freedoms.

Kentucky Going to Pot

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear advocates for gun rights of medical marijuana users [More]

Tell me “law and order Republicans” won’t be stupid enough to fight this…

Up in Smoke

Kentucky Residents Who Participate In State’s New Medical Marijuana Program Will Be Ineligible To Own Guns, Feds Warn [More]

You don’t say.

So basically the incentive from a government mandated to secure the Blessings 0f Liberty is to stay hurting or buy it illegally off books.

‘On Their Radar’

Couch allegedly threw a rock at another man’s dog and when asked why he did so, he started cursing, went inside his home, and came back armed with an AR-15. He then allegedly told the man that he would kill him and the dog, per court documents. The warrant states that the man’s 9-year-old daughter was present for the entire exchange. [More]

That an a felony charge was dismissed.

I guess it’s easier just to say “AR-15” after a known nutjob goes off.

No Shades of Grey

Multiple people shot along interstate south of Lexington, Kentucky… The man’s name was given as Joseph A. Couch, a 32-year-old white male [More]

Everybody’s helping ID him!

See, they can do it if they want to…

Another Great Call by Fairfax

Sen. Whitney Westerfield, R-Fruit Hill, will introduce the Crisis Aversion and Rights Retention Orders bill, or CARR, in the 2024 legislative session… [More]

“Fruit Hill“…

Another Never Trumper Vichycon…

Keep the Corpse on Life Support

Kentucky Democrat Gov. Beshear dodges when asked if he’ll appoint Republican]should McConnell step down [More]

Democrats do it with Feinstein and Fetterman, and they’ve got nothing to lose.

Admittedly, though, keeping a walker that bites you has its drawbacks.

Chatty Cathy

A bill to make it more difficult for local police to enforce federal gun laws and in some cases criminally penalize them, now heads to Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear’s desk … Cathy Hobart, a volunteer for Kentucky Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, said she is concerned the measure could hamper efforts to protect communities from rising levels of gun violence. [More]

Yeah, this pull-string puppet is gonna dictate my rights.

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.
