St. Louis - The War on Guns

There Oughta be a Law!

Police: FBI background check blocked gun sale to accused St. Louis school shooter [More]

Another “Gotcha!” for the blood dancers?

Lost in the furious outrage being ginned up to demand more disarmament edicts is the fact that none of the Democrat constituents responsible for the day-in-day-out carnage would have passed a background check either.

There Oughta be a Law!

Missouri senator says laws should have already been in place to prevent shooting at CVPA [More]

What, like the law against shooting people?

No “commonsense gun safety law” will ever be enough for this Marxist tool.

That’s because none of them address the real problem which keeps incompetent rabble-rousing bellyachers like her in office.

Cases in Point

Missouri juvenile courts use a point system to determine whether a juvenile gets locked up for a crime. Many felony crimes do not reach that level. [More]

I think I see the problem…

Back on Track

Surge in St. Louis homicides threatens to reverse progress made last year [More]

In your face, New Orleans!

And no worries. The lawsuits against Kia and Hyundai are proceeding as scheduled. And we’ll be planning another gun buyback any day now!

Shooting Pool

Help families of gun violence victims at the Guns Down, Hoops Up Tournament [More]

So if we do a pool should it be just numbers or what, and how much to play?

Blaming the Victim

Car thefts have skyrocketed in St. Louis in recent months, with city leadership threatening lawsuits against Kia and Hyundai for an alleged defect that makes certain makes of the cars easier to steal. [More]

That these kleptocrat morons are “city leadership” tells us all we need to know.

The Overseers

St. Louis and Jackson County argue the Second Amendment Preservation Act is unconstitutional because it puts barriers in front of local police who want to work with federal agents on gun cases. [More]

Think about that.

The People Who Don’t Trust US

Former St. Louis City Board of Aldermen President Lewis Reed and former alderman Jeffrey Boyd plead guilty Friday in a political corruption scandal that shocked the city. [More]

Tell me the photo surprises anybody. I was going to try for two, but it looks like Boyd took his page down.

Come Now, and Let Us Reason Together

Police say two groups began shooting at each other after an argument. [More]

Tell me that’s not a damn fine reason to disarm you and me!

Doing What Comes Naturally

Three Democrat St. Louis City Leaders Indicted by Federal Grand Jury For Taking Cash Bribes [More]

Without having looked at their websites and social media, any bets I can’t come up with links proving every one of them is for disarming you and me?

HOW THINGS WORK AROUND HERE

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Anyone not happy with anything on this site at any time will get 100% of all money they paid to me refunded, no questions asked. (No gratuities solicited or accepted.)

Comment House Rules

Keep them on topic. Trying to hijack threads really grinds my gears. No spam.
I moderate them so I’ll get to them when I can.
No threats against anyone except me. No fights–this is my place and if things get ugly, I treat unruly visitors the same way as I would in my home. Do not feed trolls–I’ll take out the trash.
Try to keep it clean.
I’m the final arbiter. If you don’t like the rules, start your own damn blog.

WarOnGuns Correspondents

Story tips received via email and social media messages will be credited. Just let me know how you want to be recognized (real name, first name/last initial, or screen name.)

Link Policy

I maintained a WogRoll at the old Blogspot place predicated on reciprocity with like-minded RKBA-related sites. Truth be told, I never got much in terms of site visits to make the effort worth the time. I may try to do something again in the future, but for now, my hands are more than full trying to get a new site started.

Advertising Disclosure

This is a placeholder for now because I have not done ads on the old blog for years. In case I ever start them up here, this will be the policy in effect: The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don’t think we’re getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you’re stupid, too. I have had a few ads on the old site in the past and may do so again if I think it’s worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn’t buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don’t mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now–you’re not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer without complete disclosure.

About “The Only Ones”

So named from a comment by DEA agent Lee Paige, who told a classroom full of kids he was “the only one” qualified to be armed and then promptly shot himself in the foot, the purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it’s also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank, or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they’re involved in gun-related incidents.
