Incompetence versus gun control

“In many cases the FBI either knew about these shooters, would have if they were monitoring social media, or should have known. It became obvious some time ago that our nation has a problem with taking action to root out incompetence.”

A&M versus Tyler

That’s Mr. B.’s dilemma. Go to Texas A&M, which has accepted him, or do the UT Austin CAP program at UT Tyler?

UT Austin didn’t accept him but their CAP program did. It requires a year at another UT System school like UT Tyler, achievement of a minimum 3.2 average (on a 4.0 scale) and subsequent transfer to Austin. So is it the bird-in-the-hand or the bird in the bush? Stay tuned.

Hollyweird hypocrites

Just like the Pope railing again closed borders while living behind a Vatican wall, Hollyweird’s gun control advocates enjoy multiple layers of armed security.

“Indeed, there will be road closures to prevent people breaching a security perimeter made up of a wall of ten-foot gates and barricades, FBI agents, and firefighters. Police helicopters will be buzzing above and private security guards from Security Industry Specialists will be inside the Dolby Theater.”

So impressive, their demand for the pols to take away our guns.

UPDATE: “Imagine if every school was as protected as the Oscars.”

Rule 5: Jen Maitland

The Ruger Security 9

“This may be the perfect size for a belt-carried concealment pistol. It requires no more effort to conceal than a much smaller, less-powerful pistol, yet offers the firepower and shootability of a much larger gun.”

We here at the Scribbler still prefer wheel guns, the so-called revolver, for their unjamability. Is that a word? It is now.

Transgender “boy” wins wrestling title

“For the second year in a row, a girl transitioning to a boy has won the girls’ state high school wrestling title in Texas.

“A rule passed in 2016 by the University Interscholastic League, the governing body for Texas high school sports, mandates that competitors must compete as the gender on their birth certificate. Beggs’ folks have said he wants to wrestle boys, not girls.”

The crowd booed. No surprise there. S/he’s toked up on the steroid testosterone.

The media loves mass shootings

Absolutely true. And not only mass shootings but any disaster from floods to tornadoes. “Because tragedy is their business model.”

Reason being they’re easy to cover and the coverage goes on for days, even weeks, filling the time or space that would otherwise have to be filled by creativity.

Which is in very short supply these days. Modern journalists being liberal Democrat operatives who are dumb as rocks.
