We're the Only Ones All-Knowing Enough

Based on their experience and contacts, sheriffs sometimes "just know" without written documentation that a person can't be trusted with a carry permit, Gardner said. [More]
Y'know, I think I could probably say the same thing about some sheriffs...

GRE Round Up for Apr. 2

There's some good stuff being turned out. I hope you're availing yourself of it, and importantly, sharing these links via emails, on blogs and forums, with your local newspaper editor, etc.

A common complaint is media bias and absence of representation for "our side."

These people work hard to change that and ask for nothing from those of us their labors serve other than to help spread the word. I hope no one thinks that's too much to ask.

Here are their latest offerings:

Anthony Bouchard/Cheyenne:
Kurt Hofmann/St. Louis:
Some Missouri lawmakers getting hands-on knowledge of state gun laws

Go. Read. And please share these links.

You're doing that, right?

We're the Only Ones Hippity-Hoppity Easter's On It's Way Enough

Glendale police who used a bunny costume to decoy bad drivers at crosswalks have abandoned the outfit after it made a city councilman hopping mad.

An officer wore the Easter outfit on Wednesday in crosswalks. Drivers who didn't yield to the furry pedestrian were ticketed. [More]
Oh fer...Why do pathological authority freaks seem to be the "Only Ones" whose minds operate like this?

I'm sorry, this is just so ridiculously cartoonish that

Duck season!

Wabbit season!
is the only thing that comes to mind...

Being Honest with Phil Hare



"I don't worry about the Constitution on this to be honest..." [More]
Since when are you capable of being honest, Rep. Phil Hare, (D-IL)?
"Are you calling me a liar?" Rep. Hare asks...
I'm calling you worse than a liar.

I'm calling you an oath-breaker.

Figures you don't even know what document you're trying to scrounge a quote from.

Does it occur to you, you bloated worm, that I am under no obligation to obey any edict you presume to pass when you publicly admit Constitutional authority is not even a consideration?

Oh, and what a surprise.

If I were an arrogant subversive tyrant, I wouldn't want my subjects armed, either.

We're the Only Ones "To Serve and Protect" Enough

Ourselves, that is...[More]

Telling viewpoints from "real police."

Two More Articles to Consider When Assessing the Hutaree Media-Op

One from Reuters...

and one from William Grigg...

How...uh...convenient, that the embedded asset passed himself off as an explosives guy...

When in Doubt, Smear

It's only when a militia is raided by the FBI that suddenly the NRA goes very, very quiet. Suddenly, their extreme ideology and rhetoric doesn't look so appealing. [More]
Produce the ideology and rhetoric that says NRA supports a violent overthrow of the U.S. government.

You can't, because they say exactly the opposite--in the Association Bylaws:


The fact that these evil, lying bastards at the Orwellian-named "Freedom States Alliance" need to resort to being evil lying bastards ought to tell all thinking people everything they need to know.

Ubiquitous Chains?

Vanderboegh says "We are everywhere" and proposes a course of action.

MOWCA Blog...uh...vigorously disagrees.

UPDATE: Question to MOWCA: why the need for what looks to me like a character/motive attack in your argument?

ESF 13

Additional resources would ensure ATF's ability to immediately provide the American public with the caliber of law enforcement preparation and response expected from the Department of Justice and the Federal government in a time of crisis. [More]
I'll just bet they would.

"Caliber."

Interesting word choice.

Even more interesting: the subcommittee never asked Melson anything about this...

Why do you think that is?

We're the Only Ones Electrifying Kids Enough

The release said that the officers, trying to prevent the child from hurting other children, staff members and himself, slapped the boy and then used a Taser to subdue him. [More]
In other words, leave all the hurting to highly-trained "Only Ones"? Oh, I'm sorry, I believe the appropriate technical term is "pain compliance"...

Why is MSNBC's Rachel Maddow Smearing Second Amendment March?

Smarmy, self-impressed...typical Maddow. And fundamentally untruthful with her assertion that speaking out on behalf of a cornerstone element in the Bill of Rights is "anti-government"...

So why was April 19 chosen? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner column gives another example of a media subversive hating and conflating.

This Day in History: April 2

This folded letter was sent on April 2, 1778, and franked “On publick Service,” a typical marking for military mail sent for free through the Constitutional Post. [More]
