But guns were at the center of it all, replacing car crashes as the leading killer of kids. [More]
And she includes “19-year-olds”…?
Be honest, Emily Baumgaertner, you just want to ban guns.

New York Times columnist makes ‘conservative’ case to vote Kamala Harris [More]
You’ll be surprised, you’re doing the French Mistake. Voila!
The AR-15 rifle, billed as “America’s rifle” by the National Rifle Association, has been commonly used by mass shooters and is one of the most ubiquitous weapons in the United States. [More]
Thanks for admitting its “in common use” with all that implies.

New York Times columnist John McWhorter has shown us this again recently by wishing someone would assassinate Donald Trump. [More]
And remember: Trump is just an avatar for the voters who support the promises he so imperfectly delivers on. If Trump is “a hideous pig of a man,” what must a rabid MAGAite be? And we know what such dehumanization allows.
This genocidal provincial bigot would prefer we all were eliminated. By somebody else, of course.
Considering the source’s “text, history, and tradition,” who’s surprised?

How Has Gun Violence Changed in Your Neighborhood? [More]
You’d think with all the guns around we’d score a lot higher, but anyway, my town’s results are tainted.
The victim had to import some strange from Cleveland and committed a cardinal error everyone who’s heard of Dracula knows better than to do.

Hey, they gotta be apologists for someone…

To be able to say a gun is destroyed, disposal companies crush or cut up a single piece that federal law classifies as a firearm: the receiver or frame that anchors the other components and contains the required serial number. The businesses can then sell the remaining parts as a kit: barrel, trigger, grip, slide, stock, springs — essentially the entire gun, minus the regulated piece. [More]
That’s breathless “real reporter” Mike McIntire’s big scoop?
The Newsraper of Record doesn’t trust its readers with any part of what was once a firearm and demands those be reserved for that violence monopoly they want to see imposed?
Not that I’m defending the economic fascist “public/private partnership” gun destruction companies, even if some unintentional good does come out of their little sweetheart deals…

Army Ammunition Plant Is Tied to Mass Shootings Across the U.S. [More]
Tied by whom, Ben Dooley of The New York Times, the “D” part of the DSM? What was the purpose of writing this article?
I wonder if you compared all ammo sold by Lake City to the civilian market to the number of those rounds used in acts of violence what the abuse rate would be, and how many “0s” would follow the “.” to come up with a percentage…

It is not clear what crimes were traced to guns sold through Mr. Clyde’s stores, or whether his businesses have been cited for violations that could be used to revoke their licenses. [More]
But we’re going to smear him anyway and leave an impression of corruption, crime, and conflict of interest because that’s what serves our purposes.

Since assault weapons bans aren’t coming back and AR-15-style rifles are here to stay, the most important thing we can do is modernize the background check system, around which there’s a modicum of bipartisan consensus. [More]
What, you mean the system that the National Institute of Justice says requires registration to be effective, and that criminals won’t subject themselves to anyway…?
Still, nice of him to admit they don’t have the juice to get rid of them. In The New York Times, no less…

We could even encourage worried homeowners to buy bear spray for protection. I backpack, and it’s well known that bear spray is more effective against a charging grizzly than a handgun. Probably also more effective against a home invader. Think of it as harm reduction. [More]
That ought to go real well indoors.
As for outdoors, I’m thinking the Tueller drill shows a human can traverse 21 feet in a second-and-a-half and I’m guessing how long an 800 Lb. bear at 35mph would take and how close it actually has to get to be assured of a face-full, and wondering if that would be enough, and then remembering how some have been seen rolling around in pepper spray, and noting rangers carry guns, and then what he’d do against an armed home assailant, and… what the hell. It’s not like this chronic idiot is worth debating.

Who are the ones erecting “faith” statues?
This is projection by those who reject reason and rely on government-worshiping zealots, pure and simple.

The New York Times Warns That Freedom of Speech ‘Threatens Public Health’ and ‘Democracy Itself [More]
Hey, “you can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs,” right?

In one fell swoop, The Times has reversed its position not just on “background checks,” but if you think about it, on “red flag laws,” too. It’s evidently OK, if you’re the Democrat president’s son, to commit a felony and lie on the federal form because most of the time nobody gets prosecuted for it. And when you’re distraught to the point that those closest to you feel compelled to throw your gun away because you might kill yourself, nothing says “therapy” like buying a gun and going to the range! [More]
And if the Secret Service truly wasn’t involved, don’t you think voices a lot bigger than mine ought to be asking “Who were those guys?”

Who better to demand banning something than those who don’t know what it is they want to ban?
It would be good for ‘a massive cultural shift’ toward European gun control: New York Times columnist – David Brooks said he would be willing to give up privacy for safety. [More]
He can give up whatever he wants. But what he’s saying is the rest of us have to do it too.
Mr. Franklin warned us. (And there’s also the William Penn version.)
And as for European “gun control”…
What a contemptible idiot. What a coward.
