Only in America

So, even the Newsraper of Record couldn’t erase the fact that the hot-headed leftist inserted himself into a conversation with bellicose insults and then assaulted the older guy who was walking away, and is now playing the race card, while the wormtongues at Giffords, who want to exploit this to disarm you while not allowing comments, wring their hands…?

What, they should have just duked it out, like “Real Man“? An 80-year-old against a large, angry, and alcohol-fueled man who is 25 years younger? No mention that fists and feet are involved in more homicides than “assault rifles”…?

The older guy’s major mistake was not calling the cops first, saying he feared for his life, and then letting them know his attorney would be their point of contact for more information.

At First Glance

At a glance, my father looks like the last guy who’d ever want a gun. He is Jewish, an immigrant, a politically liberal city dweller. He didn’t grow up around guns. Most of all, he believed America needed stricter gun control laws. In fact, on many occasions, my father had referred to gun owners as crazy. But I had spent the previous five years studying American gun culture, and I had seen first hand that my father’s position was not so unusual. [More]

Go ahead and make my points for me.

If your father had a clue, he’d be the first guy to want a gun.

With the newsraper of record backing off of confiscation demands and grudgingly mentioning (but not accepting) self-defense utility, I’m starting to sense a pattern here, like with our bud G. Anteus. The grabbers are betting on SCOTUS taking ARs off the table (for now) and are setting up the field for a legislative fallback agenda until such time as they can oust Republican majorities and get back on plan.

‘Bowing to Pressure’

“The Department of Justice had the opportunity to act to protect our safety, but it failed to do so,” Kris Brown, the president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said in a statement, noting the campaign from Republican lawmakers. “Our elected officials are supposed to serve the American people, not the gun industry’s bottom line. Today, the gun industry and silencer dealers are celebrating, while Americans are left less safe.” [More]

Couldn’t find anyone to refute that unmitigated horses#!+, could you, “real reporter” Chris Cameron?

They show their cards in the first sentence, about what you’d expect from “The newsraper of record.”

Randy Weaver called. He wants his wife and son back.

I have pretty much the same concerns expressed here.

Don’t make excuses for, and go after the bad.

By the same token, motives matter, especially where “The newsraper of record” is involved. It’s not ad hominem, it’s experience.

What the DSM fails to understand is that past and current biased actions undermine good works they may do.

Aesop told a story about that once.

Alleged Pipe Bomber’s Family Sued Trump DHS Over Illegal Immigration, Asked Biden DOJ To Address Racism [More]

Figures he’s “white” (and if you can’t believe Jake Tapper and CNN, who can you believe?)…

The there’s this:

Been saying that for some time, but haven’t been able to get the “gun groups” to admit it. Figures “The Newsraper of Record” gives him a megaphone.

Here’s the thing: All the useful idiots fighting ICE, going to No Kings rallies, and voting Democrat will just double down.

This isn’t a mere civil war, it’s an existential culture war being waged by men behind the curtain. Expect to see more and more like these emerging, flexing, doing, until the will is summoned to do those things necessary to make them stop.

Brain Teaser

Blast waves may be damaging shooters’ brains. The Times has a new investigation on how it happens. [More]

And any who believe this is anything more than another attack by the newsraper of record against guns needs to have their heads examined.

But watch the narrative get parroted and spread.
