People of Their Importance

The British government stopped providing security after Harry and his wife, Meghan, quit their royal duties and moved to California in 2020. A lawyer for the government argued in court that it should allow hiring of “police officers as private bodyguards for the wealthy.” Harry has said he doesn’t feel safe visiting Britain with his young children, and has cited aggressive press photographers.

While Wallis Simps…uh…Meghan sucks up to the Demanding Moms…? And since when are we admitting the “gun-safety” realm isn’t safe?

I was all for piling on until I read Harry wants to sic them on the DSM. Now I’m torn.

Still, I keep coming back to Thomas Paine

Meanwhile Across the Pond…

Four shot and three stabbed to death in London over Coronation weekend – Surge in violence means 150 teenagers have been violently killed in the capital since Sadiq Khan was elected mayor [More]

It’s almost like it’s not the same culture at all anymore in just one lifetime

It’s almost like that’s intentional.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond…

THIS is the sub-machine gun seized in Bradford that a trial has been told was manufactured using a 3D printer. [More]

Majeeb,” eh?

And “imprinted on the plastic is an image of an arm holding a curved sword with what appears to be blood dripping from the sword”…?

Sounds like they have a bigger problem than a gun

Blaming the Victim

Serial Killer Obsessed True Crime Fangirl ‘Giggled’ over Murdering Boyfriend with Celtic Dagger [More]

I can’t help but get the Darwinian vibe that any guy tapping into that demonic freak is pretty much volunteering for whatever follows. I feel the same amount of sympathy here as I do for the lunatics who crawl into wild animal enclosures at zoos.

EUSOG puts on gender neutral production of the musical ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ [More]

So have the white Christian nationalists we’re told are the most dangerous and violent threat against Western culture declared a fatwah for blasphemy yet? I notice the “performers” still all have their heads, so my guess is “No.”

And as with all things “progressive,” the “idea” is hardly new. But at least back then it didn’t take itself seriously.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond…

Cake in the office should be viewed like passive smoking, says food regulator chief [More]

No, there is nothing a chronically obsessed control freak will not try to ban. Give them government power and they are free to release their inner monsters.

Hence we have the pathetic state of what was once “this blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”

Kinda makes me want to watch “Mrs. Miniver” again and weep.

That’s Greer Garson on the cover of the Aug. 1960 issue of GUNS.
