Strategic Retreats for Long-Term Gains:
Smith compared the temporary concessions in the gun rights battle to strategic retreats in warfare. For instance, the controversial bump stock ban by Trump was a tactical move to prevent a broader legislative redefinition of machine guns, which could have had far-reaching negative consequences for gun owners.

Prove that’s what he did. Show us the contemporaneous evidence he was giving a master class in 3D chess, that was always his intent, and he could predict the outcome so it was OK to put so many at risk without their knowledge or consent.

As for “gunfluencer” Rittenhouse

Choice of Battleground

Around 700 protestors showed up to protest his appearance, chanting slogans like ‘no justice, no peace,’ ‘Kyle is a killer,’ and ‘lock his ass up.’ [More]

I’m debating going next Tuesday.

Outside can be dangerous enough. That it’s inside the KIVA Auditorium makes avoiding expected trouble problematic.

I’m not confident promoters have thought through all the potentials.

Forbidden Speaker

A second petition, posted on Change.org by KSU student Ally Grecco, urges the university and Turning Point to reconsider the decision to host Rittenhouse. Grecco points out KSU’s “painful history with gun violence” on May 4, 1970, which had profound impacts on national politics. [More]

My alma mater‘s right down the road– I may try to see if I can meet him.

You’d think knowing who committed that “gun violence,” their indignant sympathies woudln’t be with the “Only Ones,” but no-o-o

Martha, My Dear

Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager who fatally shot two Black Lives Matter protesters in Wisconsin in 2020, has now gone broke, according to his lawyer. [More]

It takes six paragraphs to get to “In 2021, a jury acquitted him of all charges”…?

It’s almost like she hopes people won’t get that far…

The media has had it in for this kid since Day One. And they’re determined to never let him live a normal life.

An Equal and Opposite Reaction

Kyle Rittenhouse announced on Saturday he filed a counter lawsuit against Gaige Grosskreutz for assault and emotional distress, stemming from their interaction when Rittenhouse shot Grosskreutz in self-defense during the 2020 BLM riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin. [More]

He made the leftist punk his B!tch once. No reason he shouldn’t be able to do it again…

First You Cry

A man who was shot in the arm by Kyle Rittenhouse during the Kenosha riots in 2020 has filed a lawsuit against Rittenhouse and Wisconsin police and officials, Fox News Digital has learned. Gaige Grosskreutz, who testified he pointed a firearm at Rittenhouse before the then-teenager shot Grosskreutz and two others, is seeking economic losses, “damages for emotional distress, humiliation, loss of enjoyment of life, and other pain and suffering on all claims,” and punitive damages. [More]

Pro tip: If you don’t want to be emotionally distressed, humiliated, lose the enjoyment of life, and suffer pain at the hands of another, try not pointing a gun at him.

A Star is Born?

Kyle Rittenhouse launches YouTube channel for ‘great content’ on GUNS and the Second Amendment as the 19-year-old Kenosha shooter notches up thousands of subscribers in just hours [More]

Except for wondering why he chose YouTube instead of a non-hostile alternative, I’ll reserve judgment. Lemme see what he actually knows and understands first.

The Real Story

“But the real story here isn’t that I am seeking to change my name, but that a process that is supposed to protect and shield those in danger was undermined and sealed information was released to the right wing media within hours of my filing… [More]

The real story here is anyone who thinks the government has their privacy interests at heart is delusional.

Welcome to our world, lefty.
