An Expert Opinion

"Gun control" makes things worse. [More]

Not that politically-appointed fascist dolt Cathy Lanier will ever admit the logical conclusions of her own statements.

There Will Be Blood

Rosie O’Donnell wants to smear menstrual blood ‘all over some people’s faces’ [More]
Seeing as how that's an excellent way to spread infectious diseases, a potential victim would be more than justified in standing his ground and repelling such a disgustingly insane assailant with a gun.

I love it when "progressives" show the world what they're really made of.

I also love how the "feminists" are all gaga over another cunning runt, the one who ran the London Marathon dripping menstrual blood to make some sort of statement "for an inspiring, empowering reason." Except why she didn't do that in India is another story altogether.

I like her statement of defiance:
If there’s one person society can’t eff with, it’s a marathon runner. You can’t tell a marathoner to clean themselves up, or to prioritize the comfort of others. On the marathon course, I could choose whether or not I wanted to participate in this norm of shaming.
Uh, yeah, in fact you can, at least if you try that here. And basic hygiene and sanitation expectations are hardly shame-oriented. I guess being a rich kid and daughter of immigrants, Kiran is far removed from India's massive cholera problems.

I'm not sure what the laws in the UK are, but you can't intentionally expose the public to biohazardous waste, and as marathons have on-site employees and volunteers, enforceable workplace safety rules exist as well -- you know, along with a host of other regulatory reasons that make artificially importing H1-B visa Indian tech workers so much more affordable for all concerned.

Still, I wouldn't mind seeing Kiran compete in a triathlon, especially if the swimming segment is held off Amity Island...

Hey, who's up for a diarrhea run to inspire and empower against the norm of shaming?

That Assumes They Understand the Issues

All the issues, including what to do about those who will neither comply nor go gentle into that good night... [More]

Powers that be-approved manipulators are providing sellout talking points. What better way than to ask those best qualified to appear on Mark Dice interview videos?

Trump on Immigration

I haven't had time to read down to the details on this, nor to discuss it with some key colleagues, but on the surface it looks like it's ahead of anything any other candidates are proposing. [More]

I'm withholding comment pending doing that, which may take a few days, as I am swamped with other pressing areas that need my attention.

About That Cornyn Bill


I've been asked to share my concerns. I'll do just that this afternoon at 4:15 Central (adjust for your time zone).

Listen live here.

We're Going to Win This Country Back?

How, once the "pathway to citizenship" kicks in while you guys have been utterly and deliberately silent about it so as not to rock any access boats? [Watch]

Hearing "Thanks for having me on" at the very start of this clip set the tone, at least for me. Like the guy has a choice?

I see the expected apologia for the Cornyn bill, which at this writing has still not been posted online, addressing what he calls "misinformation," while totally ignoring some key questions we really deserve answers to if we're expected to climb on board. Instead, we get competing rice bowl accusations instead of guarantees that the term "adjudication" they're throwing around provides equivalent protections to a jury trial, rather than just a rubber stamp from the bench.

And Another Meme

Not only does Vivek have "no regrets," neither do the propagandists propagating his "No regrets/gun violence/public health" advocacy.  [More]

The Latest Meme

High gun ownership linked to high rate of police officer deaths, study shows [More]
Correlation = causation?  Then we must ban ice cream!

There are all kinds of statistical tricks going on to derive the above "claim," and John Lott shows us how they do the con.

There's one other factor, and that's the definition of "ownership," which is a legal and moral term. Mere "possession" of a gun does not qualify for the term any more than being a carjacker makes one a car owner.

No matter: Our Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists are on the job making sure the hive mind is saturated with the lie.  See for yourself how many iterations have been picked up by the Google News feed alone, and  then realize the message is also being propagated by TV networks, blogs, social media, etc.

There Can Only Be One

The Walsh administration’s much-touted gun buyback program has taken in just one firearm so far this year [More]
Hey, if it saves one life...

Right? I mean isn't every gun a killer?  Besides, he's not about to admit defeat:
Declaring that “we need to get guns off the street,” Walsh renewed his pitch of the buyback program at a mid-afternoon press conference yesterday. “We need to make sure we double our efforts on that,” the mayor said.
See, if we double our efforts, we can get two guns!

Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy Redux

"They'll try to tell you it's about Benghazi, but it's not," Clinton said, pointing to Republican-led congressional inquiries that she said had "debunked all the conspiracy theories."
"It's not about emails or servers either. It's about politics," she said. "I won't get down in the mud with them. I won't play politics with national security," Clinton said at the annual Wing Ding, a Democratic fundraiser in northern Iowa that attracted three other presidential candidates. [More]
Yeah, nothing contradictory about that.

Expect to see variations on this theme repeated over and over and over again by her operatives and apologists.

We're the Only Ones Scrapping Enough

According to the arrest documents, Kauffman's body was dumped in the woods by a police car, witnesses told investigators. [More]
Even if this bears out, what's the big deal?  The whole purpose behind having "Only Ones" is to maintain a "monopoly of violence."

The Fix is In

Administration officials praised the ruling. [More]
Of course they did.

By the way, calling Larry Klayman a "gadfly": That's some objective reporting.

As for appealing to the Supreme Court, all they have to do is not hear the case.

There is one other "legal" option before deciding all judicial doors have been barred shut:

Precedent has already been set for a federal judge to issue an injunction against implementation of executive amnesty, albeit through a different route.

Back before Congress allowed guns in national parks due to a rider on a credit card bill, a move by the Bush administration though its Interior Department was halted by an injunction from a federal judge siding with a Brady Campaign complaint and ruling that no environmental impact study had been conducted as required by law.

Now that it appears the administration's amnesty action was conducted under DHS memorandum, the parallels are even more marked, minimizing potential executive action immunities. It would seem a lawsuit based on the same grounds filed in a carefully selected jurisdiction would have precedent to achieve the same results.

Yeah, I know, they'd just find a way to weasel out of that as well.  That's because the fix is in and those intent on fundamentally transforming are confident that any opposition will be small and scattered.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."
