An Honest Politician

He argued that citizens’ ability to defend themselves may be compromised as well, pointing to a tweet from Mamdani saying, “We need to ban all guns.” [More]

See, none of this “commonsense gun safety law” crap, just a straight up admission of what he really wants to do

And what he’s done here is taken the “I respect the Second Amendment BUT” lie away from every politician who has endorsed him, as well as the Democrat party as a whole. I don’t see any Moms Demand or Giffords posters yet, but I dare them to back him, because that will take the lie away from them, too.

Hey, if New Yorkers elect him and the Muslims carry out another mass casualty event, what will my obligation be to consider it an attack on America warranting a response I support? Actually, I’m not sure what it is now…

We’re the Only Ones Not Parading Enough

Police Officers Protest Pride After Being Barred From Marching With Guns [More]

I agree with the organizers that no one group should have superior rights.

I also think, since they’ve made the decision to forego their rights and infringe on the rights of others, there should be no taxpayer-funded armed presence protecting the marchers.

A New York State of Mind

NYC councilmember urges residents to take up arms after robbers tied up Queens family in shocking home invasion: ‘Constitutional right’ [More]

Shows ya what I know. I didn’t think NYC had “Republican” council members.

Anyway, what are these “gun permits” she says she’s going to help her constituents obtain, and what do they have to do with the Second Amendment?

They all know there’s a difference between purchase and carry permits, don’t they?

We’re the Only Ones Destructive Enough

Since the day I took office, the NYPD has seized more than 21,400 illegal firearms — and last week, I was able to help send many of these confiscated weapons to their final destination — a wood chipper that destroyed these guns so they can never be used to cause harm again. [More]

What do Tucker and Trump see in this guy?

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Sharia Enough

As it turns out, he will spend most of his time sitting — in a white Ford Taurus that is detailed to look like a police squad car with red and white emergency lights. Mr. Ali is among the first 30 members of the all-volunteer Muslim Community Patrol & Services that is preparing to operate in neighborhoods in Brooklyn, with a goal of growing its fleet of two cars to five by the end of the month and eventually expanding citywide. [More]

And if you don’t pull over…?

None Dare Call It Treason

New York Court Considers Law that Would Allow 800,000 Non-Citizens to Vote [More]

Why carve out a pathway to citizenship when we can simply bulldoze a freeway to the ballot box?

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free stuff…

What’s the difference between a Democrat and a communist? Asking for a friend…

We’re the Only Ones Underpaid Enough

Under an expired contract, pay for sergeants starts at $98,000 and is capped at $118,000 after roughly five years, according to the NYPD’s Sergeants Benevolent Association (SBA). Patrol officers top out at $115,000 – meaning hundreds of sergeants make less than thousands of rank-and-file cops who have reached top pay for their position. [More]

Oh, the weight of the badge… “Law and order” Republicans are outraged!

The standing army sure makes a lot more than the average member of the Constitutional Militia it keeps disarmed, members who don’t have qualified immunity and union protection…

So what do New Yorkers get for their losses in freedom and treasure…?

Schadenfreude X 2

Layla Law-Gisiko, president of the City Club of New York, which sued Gov. Kathy Hochul to implement the unpopular toll for motorists driving into Manhattan, said she was left bruised and battered after the Saturday afternoon attack at the 23rd Street station. [More]

So, someone who wants to “make gun control an absolute PRIORITY???!!!” found herself defenseless in a situation she wants to force more people into?

I’m trying to find some sympathy. I know I left it lying around here someplace…

I don’t suppose the French or Tunisians want her back…?

Who Will Guard the Guardians?

Guardian Angels resume NYC subway patrols for first time since 2020 after shocking arson murder [More]

Pinkley’s question comes to mind.

Followed by “With what?”

How worthy of protection are people who vote for their own disarmament and then expect other men, also disarmed by the edicts they demand, to save them?

Cut and Run

What was the first clue that this person is mentally ill? And if someone has proven they can’t be trusted with a knife, what the hell are they doing out?

Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before

“Last night in Queens, a memorial for a teen lost to gun violence turned to horror when gunmen opened fire on the crowd, including several young people who are now hospitalized. This cannot be our normal…” [More]

No, it’s not OUR normal, Kathy. But it’s pretty unexpected (oops) for a significant segment of YOUR consituency.

As is blaming it on “gun violence”…

Classy joint sure to attract all the right people, no…?
