The Supremes expand gun rights

Posted on June 23, 2022 | Comments Off on The Supremes expand gun rights

It’s instructive to read the court’s opinions on their decision to expand gun rights while Congress is attempting to limit them. Of course those opposed to gun rights in the first place are upset.

“The majority opinion, authored by Justice Clarence Thomas, held that New York’s ‘proper cause’ requirement for obtaining a concealed carry license violated the Constitution because it ‘prevents law-abiding citizens with ordinary self-defense needs from exercising their right to keep and bear arms’ in public.”

Lyin’ Biden finds the ruling discouraging, but who cares what the author of high gas prices and inflation generally wants.

The Uvalde cops waited

Posted on June 21, 2022 | Comments Off on The Uvalde cops waited

“Tony Plohetski, an investigative reporter for the Austin-American Statesman [& KVUE], tweeted a picture showing [Uvalde] police stationed outside the classroom where more than a dozen children were murdered. The officers, armed with rifles and at least one ballistic shield, were in the hallway near the classroom at 11:52 a.m.—58 minutes before [federal Border Patrol cops] breached the locked classroom, and 19 minutes after the gunman entered the school. At 12:03 p.m. a second officer with a ballistic shield arrived, followed by a third a few minutes later.”

Utterly disgraceful behavior. Hardly protectors of the community, just bureaucrats with guns.

UPDATE: The Uvalde schools police chief has been put on administrative leave. Should be fired.

Restricting AR-15 ammo

Posted on June 19, 2022 | 2 comments

Have to say that Lyin’ Biden, for all he acts and is seen as stupid, is pretty smart attacking the makers of the AR-15’s principal ammo, the 5.56 cartridge. And I think Armalite created the problem by making their semi-auto hunting rifles look like full-autos and hence be called assault rifles by the media.

“Last night, news broke that the Biden Administration is taking behind-the-scenes steps to further strangle the already constricted market for ammunition in the United States. The move could result in a reduction of the commercial production of 5.56 caliber ammunition by over thirty percent.

“The move, if completed, would dramatically reduce availability of ammunition for America’s most popular rifle (and, not coincidentally, the one most targeted by gun prohibitionists).”

First, you made it look military, then the Democrats started calling it a weapon of war because it looked like one. Not that anyone has gone to war with a semi-auto since World War II.

Backing Biden’s asinine gun lies

Posted on June 8, 2022 | Comments Off on Backing Biden’s asinine gun lies

It’ll be interesting to see if Matthew McConaughey’s Texas icon stock will now diminish, as Texas gun-owners stop paying attention to him now that he’s revealed himself as a gun grabber. As a Uvalde native he was in a perfect position to champion more funding for mental health services for teenagers such as the shooter who fill bags with cats for tossing in a river, but he never mentioned it. What he did say was the same old stuff that didn’t pass the Congress even when the Democrats were fully in charge and has about as much chance now.

Why are we in Ukraine?

Posted on May 17, 2022 | Comments Off on Why are we in Ukraine?

“Now here we are, being driven toward war with Vladimir Putin’s Russia by a relentless military-industrial propaganda campaign organized by a corrupt gerontocracy in command of our armed forces in support of a dubious cause, for absolutely no good reason of state.”

But lots of individual reasons, from the multiple Republican and Democrat consultants to Ukraine politics over the last many years, to the current money-laundering services provided for our corrupt politicians.

Six dead, fifteen wounded

Posted on April 3, 2022 | Comments Off on Six dead, fifteen wounded

The latest mass shooting, in gun-controlled Sacramento, California. Lefties are already blaming the NRA, which is silly, but to be expected. What more laws can they pass before they realize that criminals don’t obey laws.

UPDATE: Still six dead (three men and three women) but wounded now up to eighteen. Getting to be a return to the wild west, the country is.

Beta to buy back AR15s

Posted on March 13, 2022 | Comments Off on Beta to buy back AR15s

Just the latest of the perennial Dimocrat candidate’s flip-flop on guns. If gun owners vote he hasn’t got a prayer. And, no, I didn’t misspell his nickname.
