Thanksgiving - The War on Guns

Night of the Evil Butterball

The greasy-lipped masters have to be laughing like hell as they reach across their table of plunder and rip off another drumstick… [More]

That links to my traditional Thanksgiving essay, first posted in 2000.

May your day be as filled with gratitude and love as much as mine has always been, and blessedly free from stupid people with no manners.

That links to my traditional Thanksgiving essay, first posted in 2000. This year, WarOnGuns Correspondent Michael G provides an addendum:

LA Times Op-Ed: This Thanksgiving, Honor Turkeys By Not Eating Them [More]

While others bent on destroying our culture and imposing their rule do their utmost to contaminate everything with their filth and make the feast of freedom unpalatable.

And, of course, Moms Demand You be Miserable.

Their word “frustrated” tells you all you need to know.

Fortunately, no one in my family is a loud, obnoxious, divisive, and most of all oblivious useful idiot. I have a feeling those who don’t have a castrated milquetoast to henpeck will be enduring their eating disorders while seething with their cats.

Let them all seethe in impotent rage.

As for my brothers and sisters in freedom, may you have as much to be thankful for as I do. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. Now go enjoy the day.

UPDATE

This is the way I “honored” my turkey. And none of us were miserable because my family and circle of friends are mercifully free of crazy commie nonsense bellyachers.

Giving Thanks

But, in the midst of this madness, we want to take a minute to say a very sincere thank you. [More]

In the face of adversity, and there’s plenty of it, Oregon Firearms Federation reminds those of us who join it in the fight for freedom to be thankful for each other.

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.
