We’re the Only Ones Suddenly Finding Our Courage Enough

The Uvalde police who stood in the hall for over an hour as over 40 children and teachers were shot (21 died) were quick to arrest parents of the victims like Brett Cross for making public outbursts at County Commissioners they accuse of a coverup. [More]

Bear has something to say about that.

UPDATE

As does Herschel.

Cognitive Dissonance Writ Large

In Parkland the cop on campus did nothing
In Uvalde the cops did nothing
In Kansas City the cops did nothing.

Too often the “good guys” with guns only prove to be cowards with guns. More cops will not end gun violence. [More]

But cowards should be the “Only Ones” with guns…?

Two Nations

AG GARLAND ON UVALDE SHOOTING: “Our children deserve better than to grow up in a country where an 18-year-old has easy access to a weapon that belongs on the battlefield, not in a classroom.” [More]

First off, they’re not “our children,” collectivist. They’re “my children” and “your children.” And we saw what depending on the “Only Ones” resulted in.

Remember what Vanderboegh asked about two nations divided by the answer to this fundamental question:

Does the government serve the people or do the people serve the government?

Hey, remember when Vichycon Leon H. Wolf, now managing editor of The Blaze, said Trump stood no chance in 2016 and advised Republicans to confirm Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court?

We’re the Only Ones Running TOWARD Enough

Texas police have released body camera footage of the officer who neutralized the mass shooter at the Allen Outlet Mall without waiting for backup. He goes from telling little kids to wear their seatbelts to running toward the sound of gunshots. [Watch]

No Scot Peterson/Heroes of Uvalde Award for you!

UPDATE (For those of you who can’t access the link):

No Questions Allowed

Mere months after the Uvalde school district suspended its entire police force for failing to effectively respond to a deadly shooting at an elementary school, school officials banned a concerned parent from school property — because he questioned the qualifications of a new police hire. [More]

That’s tyranny, plain and simple.

Here’s what the new leadership is doing to ensure the safety of the children they’re entrusted with! And true to form, they limit who can comment…

Armed American Radio Redux

David Codrea joins discussion of 2A current events [More]

Among the other things we discussed was this lying moron’s paean to citizen disarmament as the answer to “police “Only One” cowardice.

WarOnGuns Correspondent Michael G sends a related deconstruction of the subversive @$$holes who join in that evil call.

We’re the Only Ones (Our) Safety First Enough

Even though some officers had AR-15s themselves, they concluded they needed more firepower. They opted to wait for a Border Patrol SWAT team, with better body armor, shields & tactical training — even though the unit was based more than 60 miles away. [More]

Community heroes…

A Silver Lining

Unreleased transcripts from Uvalde show police waited to breach the classroom because the killer had a combat rifle that could penetrate their armor. They we too scared. We are a nation that allows anyone to buy a rifle that can massacre children while keeping the police at bay. [More]

What this guy said:

We’re the Only Ones Systemic Enough

Nearly 400 law enforcement officials rushed to mass shooting that left 21 people dead at a Uvalde elementary school but “systemic failures” created a chaotic scene that lasted more than an hour before the gunman was finally confronted and killed, according to a report from investigators released Sunday. [More]

“Systemic failures”… is that what they’re calling cowardice these days?

And yeah, this is several months old– I just don’t recall seeing the “400” number before.

Psychological Lawfare

The federal lawsuit was filed Monday by Everytown Law on behalf of Sandra Torres, the mother of Eliahna Torres, who was fatally shot on May 24 at Robb Elementary along with 18 other children and two teachers. The lawsuit also includes the gun store that transferred the rifle to the shooter as well as police officers and agencies that were on site that day. [More]

Why would those who get away with eviscerating the Second Amendment with impunity give a damn about the First?

There’s no one’s grief these evil, blood-dancing bastards won’t exploit.

Doesn’t Everytown filing this when they know PLCAA is in play constitute a frivolous action designed to extort a settlement for which they could be countersued? It almost seems like a form of insurrection…

We’re the Only Ones Kept in Suspense Enough

Uvalde School District Suspends Entire Police Force [More]

Figures a school district that carries its share of fail would do that.

Remember when some idiot grade school teacher who didn’t have a clue on how to encourage order would punish the whole class?

Then again, that’s also what “Only Ones” do to those in lockup to compel group compliance, leaving unstated the implied threat of having vengeful inmates mete out punishment to any who cause disturbances.

No Excuses

Rob Pincus excuses the Uvalde Cops. [More]

I just saw him finding common ground to exploit with Giffords, too.

Along with 97 Percent.

And Dan Gross.

Having screwed the pooch with the major gun groups, he’s looking to make a good living with the light-on-principles 2.0 crowd.

I guess I’ll continue to bear the shame of his disapproval for my lack of tolerance over Hillary-supporting gun trainers.

And don’t get me started on this…

30 Days or Else


Sorry. That’s extortion. At this point, it has become appropriate to tell them to go **** themselves. And if half a dozen show up to protest, watch that deemed newsworthy.

Looks like a private group. With 2.8K “members,” my bet is there’s some serious AstroTurfing going on.  What are they trying to hide?

And they don’t appear to be strong enough supporters to all sign the online petition.

This appears to be the guy auditioning for national exposure.

So It’s Trump’s Fault?

How the GOP’s anti-immigrant crusade hindered the Uvalde shooting response – School district officials’ frequent use of a lockdown alert to warn about migrants reportedly resulted in some school faculty members initially not taking it seriously the day of the shooting. [More]

That’s the “progressive” takeaway from the official report.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. I have that on good authority…

We’re the Only Ones Fleeing Enough

Cops responding to the Uvalde, Texas, school shooting ran away from gunshots while 19 children and two teachers were left to die in their classrooms… [More]

I guess turning your back on the armed crazy and skedaddling to save your own precious hindquarters are time-honored tactics:

On the bright side, these are the guys they’ll send to confiscate the “20 million AR-15 style rifles.”

UPDATE

Ann Barnhardt calls it like she sees it.
