The U.S. government killed his grandson. “Shouldn’t it at least have to explain why?” Beyond heartbreaking. Hey, but Joe Biden says it’s what you should do! This list of 78 skills everybody should have has been making the rounds of the gun blogs. Just reading it is exhausting. Fight racism by beating up white people. Yeah, now that makes sense. (And what’s with that opening paragraph, BTW? Where’s the evidence that “both sides” have gotten violent in the wake of the Zimmerman verdict?) Oh goodie. You can get early parole from Purgatory by following His Popeness on social media. Seriously,…

MrColionNoir and racists

MrColionNoir has been added to the blogroll’s Self-Defense Rights section this morning. ‘Course, as he says, it’s not only about self defense: Source for those who can’t see the embed. —– An aside (and a question). MrColionNoir recently teamed up with the NRA for a series of videos. This has led some on the other side to get sniffy abut the NRA’s alleged history of racism. This cry of “racist!” and “pandering!” is being made mostly by people who identify as Democrats. So my question is, how can they be so upset over NRA racism — while turning a blind…

App to “geolocate dangerous guns and owners.” The reviews are the best part. Grate boocks four somer reeding. You know, I don’t usually write about golf. In fact, I doubt I’ve ever written about golf even once in my entire life. But oh wow, the Bubba Watson hovercraft golf cart is COOL! There are a lot of outrageous things about secret gummint spying. One of them is that we’re paying for what’s being done to us. Just in case you’re getting closer to being driven offshore. (H/T Sandy Sandfort, who’s as offshore as it gets.) The most stupifyingly boring video…

Kokesh SWATted

Closed streets and helicopters. The whole military routine. All over a video. I know Kokesh courts trouble. But this is ridiculous. And coming on the heels of the latest TJIC mess, my Inner Paranoid wonders if there’s some concerted effort going on. (H/T MWD) The Adam vs the Man news release.

Time to train cops not to shoot dogs. Ya think? (But if they quit killing our pets, how will the cowards control us??? Oh yeah, that’s right. By SWATting our poker games and busting our kids’ lemonade stands.) Nostalgia has never been my thing. Those “good old days”? They weren’t really so good. Turns out, though, that nostalgia’s actually good for you. Awwwwww. Blind couple fall in love after their guide dogs do. It’s a crappy law and just more permit pushing. But both houses of the Illinois legislature hugely overrode Gov. Pat Quinn’s weird attempt to use his veto…

Small update on TJIC

Not much of an update, but at least a little comforting news. I’ve heard from Travis Corcoran (TJIC). Hasn’t been much news since the July 4th raid that Tam told the world about. I’m now able to say (and I quote), “I talked to him, he’s OK and moving to the Free State Project.” And that’s the truth. The full story is of course way more complicated than that, but it’s not being told on the advice of lawyers. Bottom line is that TJIC and Jenny have hope of eventually removing themselves from the evil clutches of Massachusetts cops. If…

And here we thought that at least one amendment was still safe from gummint over-reach and thuggery. Sigh. Not so for one abused family in Nevada. Hey, lookee here. Yet another group has sprung up, pretending to be pro-gun but, you know, responsible (unlike the rest of us). This is at least the third in the last 20 years that’s used pro-gun cover to promote the full anti line. Bitter does a magnificent fisking, right down to uncovering their Obama affiliations. (Via Joel) So, you remember those “unsecured” guns the Mounties had to confiscate steal loot protect in a flooded…

A “Farewell to Arms” in Colorado — and as the Dutchman says, “Let the smuggling begin.” Speaking of the Dutchman (Mike Vanderboegh, of course), he’s just been interviewed on Freedom Feens. Only bureaucrats (aka “policymakers”) could be flummoxed by cannabis legalization — a trend that’s been ongoing for nearly 20 years. A former STASI snoop is appalled … … while the wits of Las Vegas make tourist hay out of the NSA. Wi-Vi. Ugh. (H/T MJR) Wait a minute. You stole their guns. And after the Glorious Leader of your Glorious Country says to give the darn things back (H/T…

Sunday-Monday tab clearing

Might have been too busy to post. Not to busy to collect tabstuff. If I fail to credit sources it’s because I’ve forgotten where some of it came from. Sigh. “How to disappear without a trace.” Not in a good way, unfortunately … Quietly, with almost no notice even in the financial press, France has outlawed any mailing of currency, coins, or precious metals — a ban that appears about to spread to other parts of Europe. What a coincidence that big, government-approved money launderers banks and investors don’t use mail to ship their loot resources. For the most part,…
