Her brother blew himself away with a shotgun on this date. Her anti-gun “friend” wants her to suffer — and hate the gun. She suffers — but knows better than to blame an inanimate object.

Of course.
Or maybe I don’t. But one of the most vocal Sandy Hook gun controllers has apparently been writing bad checks all over town. It’s awful that Neil Heslin lost his son so tragically. But it’s equally awful that he wants to use that to demolish the rights and safety of millions of good people. He should clean his own house before he tries to make criminals out of the rest of us. —– ADDED: Turns out that writing bad checks is merely one little blip in a long pattern of criminality for Mr. Heslin. Whotta rap sheet this fella has!
I think this makes me the 3,456th gunblogger to “announce” Defense Distributed’s proudest new achievement, The Liberator. Although their video pairs it with images of the Liberator bomber, we know which WWII equipment they really named it after. I believe I’m also the 1,274th blogger to immediately think (if not immediately say), “You can’t stop the signal!” And you can’t, you know. Nobody can. I think Cody Wilson is a brave genius — who’s cruising for a terrible fed-bruising and who’ll deserve our ardent support (and contributions to his legal defense fund) when it comes. I think the hysteria about…
No fair! How come the CIA doesn’t deliver bags of cash to me? I’m sure I could stay bought at least as well as the typical third-world puppet. (We all know those standards aren’t too high.) It’s a sure thing I could find some cronies to share the loot with. Heck, I’d probably have cronies crawling out of the woodwork as soon as they learned I was the source of buckets of untraceable dollars. I’ll bet I could even find a warlord or two to fund. So why not me? Why not you? But since it’s not us, I’d like…
One day when I was a senior in high school I got called into the office of the Dean of Girls (weirdly quaint title). I was being “awarded” an F for the day in all my classes, having gotten caught skipping school to attend a peace march. Funny thing. I skipped school a lot that year, mostly just to hang out somewhere that wasn’t around my increasingly intolerable family, town, or school. Don’t recall ever getting in trouble for it, except that one time when somehow my parents and the dean discovered that I had gone (gasp!) to an anti-war…
Yeah. You remember how Reed Exhibitions, run by those quivering, politically correct Brits, tried to ban ugly black guns from the huge Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show early this year. They got got clobbered, slammed, obliterated, run out of town by gutsy vendors and presenters — most of whom had nothing to do with the banned items. It was a fabulous display of unified support for gun rights. Well, guess what? After Reed “postponed” the show, they eventually abandoned it altogether. And the NRA, which had opposed the cowardly ban, took over the show and will be producing it next…
Identify the political position of this person: Claims that 90% of the public wants “universal background checks” on gun buyers. Uses code language like “reasonable reform,” “moderate,” and “common-sense gun legislation.” Believes that taxpayers should subsidize the cost of universal background checks. Wants the fedgov to hire more FBI agents. Believes that gun-rights supporters should be worried that if we don’t “embrace” universal background checks “President Obama and others” will think that we are “merely obstructionists” and “zealots.” Wants the Manchin-Toomey bill reintroduced with a few changes. Lies, misinterprets, or is ignorant about some of the bill’s provisions. Believes that…
The incomparable Mike Vanderboegh spoke yesterday from deep within enemy territory. Source for those who can’t see the embed. Or Read the transcript here. I don’t usually have the patience to view 15-minute YouTube videos, but this is terrific stuff and only gets better as it winds to its conclusion. It opens: My name is Mike Vanderboegh and I’m a smuggler. I am from the great free state of Alabama and I am a Three Percenter. If you need to pigeonhole my politics I consider myself a Christian libertarian. I believe in free men, free markets, the rule of law…
Remembering the first battle. (H/T Jim Bovard, whose blog recently acquired a shiny new look) And fighting the battles still. The Lexington, MA, board of selectmen revoked Oath Keepers’ permit to muster on the green tomorrow, citing (groan) “public safety” in the wake of the Boston bombings. Stewart Rhodes says he’ll be there, anyhow, and David Codrea will let the world know if he needs bail money. Whatever happens tomorrow, yesterday went pretty darned well. And got some enemies of freedom really frothing. Captain John Parker: “Stand your ground. Do not fire unless fired upon. But if they mean to…
Well, well, well. Getting interesting for the hoplophobes today. The turncoat Gottlieb has turned coat in another direction. He’s withdrawn his support for Manchin-Toomey because, you know, those bad, bad politicians weren’t faaaaaaaiiiiir to him. They uuuuuuuuused him. Yeah. Like somebody who’s been in the lobbying biz for decades would be so very shocked at that. With Manchin-Toomey going down the tubes, the R-party has felt the need to rush in with a last-minute substitute proposal (pdf) from Chuck Grassley, Ted Cruz, et al. It’s slightly longer than the M-T botch and I haven’t read it with a magnifying glass.…
