Notes from the Resistance
Thai PM orders tighter gun control, drugs crackdown after mass killing [More]
Or as one of my favorite people just got done saying:
So look for demands for even more civilian disarmament. And don’t be surprised when another atrocity happens.

It sounds like everything Brady United, Everytown/Moms, and Giffords and the Democrats are demanding here, doesn’t it? “Commonsense gun safety”…? [More]
They already have everything the antis are willing to SAY they want here…
5 Years After Las Vegas Concert Shooting, an FBI Whistleblower Reveals Probable Motive [More]
Anything’s possible. I’ve also heard about a Saudi prince.
About the only thing that seems impossible is getting the FBI to be forthcoming with what it really knows. I wish I could believe Republicans winning big in November would change that.

Mass public shootings in the US account for a small fraction of all firearm-related homicides, but have an outsized role in stoking the public’s concern with firearm violence. [More]
Yeah, thanks to elites-funded hysterical “agenda science” amplified by an equally hysterical (and reliably ignorant) DSM.
Doctrinaire disarmament propagandists Philp J. Cook and John Donahue (Piled Higher and Deepers each) sure use a lot of words to spook the herd on a threat that takes fewer lives than fists and feet. And the gunquacks (funny, we were just talking about them) at the equally agenda-driven AMA are delighted for another chance to posture and preen as leaders.
Those are my broad strokes on the matter. I’m hoping our friends Miguel A. Faria, Jr., M.D. and the good docs at DRGO decide to give us something more scholarly to push back with…
Hat tip to John Richardson, who sent me this information, and has put together quite a nice write-up that factors in Bruen. This is one of the things I like about those in “our movement” who do it right– the object is to help each other fight the best fight possible.
Church Drops Drag Queen After Learning He Was Involved in a Plot to Shoot up a School [More]
Matthew 7:15 comes to mind…
Hey, maybe (he?) identified as a mass child murderer.
I thought “progressives” were down with that.

On Wednesday, U.S. Senator Ted Cruz went to the Senate floor to seek unanimous consent for his proposed school safety bill, but it was blocked. Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, objected to the Cruz legislation and criticized him for not being serious. [More]
That means it doesn’t ban guns, so he’d rather more children be slaughtered until he gets a bill that does.

“It is not a good morning in Houston,” Police Chief Troy Finner said. “This suspect unfortunately, very sadly and very evilly set fire to several residences, laid wait for those residents to come out and fired upon them.” Firefighters had to take cover as they arrived to fight the blaze amid the mass shooting. Police spotted the shooter, dressed in all black with a shotgun… [More]
So, Fudds: When they succeed in banning guns in the front of the line, what do you think the grabbers will next characterize as “weapons of choice”?
And is it just me, or is finding information on the shooter kind of hard to ferret out, even after the story has aged a few days?

Oregon Safeway shooting: Multiple people dead after gunman opens fire at grocery store… The suspect opened fire in the parking lot with an AR-15 style rifle. [More]
Just in time for the ballot measure!
Note the suspect hasn’t been ID’d yet. My beef with gun advocates who say don’t “give him fame” is that by leaving him anonymous, interested parties can ignore/clean up internet tracks when they have someone who doesn’t fit an exploitable narrative.
Parkland Father Claims ‘Absolute Insanity’ to Let School Officers Have AR-15s for Classroom Defense [More]
But demanding everybody be disarmed so they’re not “needed” is sane…
Guttenberg, of course, was one of the panelists for the kinder, gentler citizen disarmament deception.

“EVERY BATTLE IS WON OR LOST BEFORE IT’S EVER FOUGHT!!” —Sun Tzu– While I pray it never happens, I can assure you that our Brevard County Sheriff’s Office School Resource Deputies are prepared to win the battle to protect our children and teachers!! [Watch]
I guess including the Second Amendment in the mix is out of the question…?

‘I ended the discussion’: Richmond Police Chief Smith says he will no longer talk about alleged mass shooting plot [More]
An honest overseeing government would give him the choice to either spill or take the Fifth. An honest media would demand it. As would a citizenry “guard[ing] with jealous attention the public liberty.”
What does that tell us about Richmond?

Madison County Sheriff Buddy Harwood recently unveiled his plan to put gun safes containing AR-15 rifles in schools so school resource officers can respond faster to a school shooter, rather than standing by and waiting for local police to respond to the scene. [More]
I don’t suppose one in every classroom for the actual “first responders” is in the cards…?

Reps. Seth Moulton (D-MA) and Veronica Escobar (D-TX) are pushing the “Mass Shooter Prosecution Act,” which would open mass shooters and their “support networks” up to terrorism charges in the event the shooters use guns Democrats typically label “assault weapons.” [More]
Who do they think they are? Jim Zumbo?
