quote of the day – martha boggs

Well, this whole Martha Boggs kicks Stacey Campfield out of her restaurant thing has been… enlightening, if nothing else.

Apparently, for some people, some discrimination is a-ok so long as they disagree with the person being discriminated against but it should be strictly, legally verboten in any situations they feel …

paul helinski just does not know when to quit

Paul Helinski, president of GunsAmerica, simply does not understand the Internet or how it works.  This profound ignorance is rather surprising in this day and age, especially since he claims to have been using the “network of tubes” for the past 15 years or so, but being the gracious and …

why i will not vote for romney

In 1000 words or more:

mittromneystatusquomittromneystatusquo

(Courtesy of Day By Day.)

Or, as I have been saying on Twitter, why wuss out and vote for Romney when you could just man up, go all the way, and vote for Obama? The only difference between those two men is velocity; they …

a burden happily borne

Way back at the end of the year before last (bit wierd to be saying that, honestly), I happily jumped on the bandwagon announcing the birth of “The Future of Guns Online”, otherwise known as “GunUp”.

Looking back on that, I find myself very happy I did not jump on …

schrödinger’s osama

If you do not have any records of your military assets killing a man and dumping his body into the ocean, is he really dead, and did you really kill him?

Obviously the records, photographs, and other documentation for the purported hit are classified and will be kept under wraps …

occupy [insert location here] recap

I still largely intend on keeping my mostly-radio-silence regarding the complete and utter disaster that is known as "Occupy Wall Street" or "Occupy [Insert Location]" (And, really, what have they accomplished in the past few months? Is it any wonder they cannot get or keep a job?), but that does …

really don’t be a robert farago

… Or Reddit will expose your dickery to the world, along with some supporting fire from Something Awful (link probably NSFW, but you should know that from the name).

The original complaint is on Facebook, but the short story boils down to "Robert Farago is an inveterate

almost like clockwork

I suppose I should be thankful that some things in this world will remain constant, no matter how much everything else around us changes.

It would appear as though wanna-be gunblogger and certified attention whore Robert Farago is still being a dick, and a rather ineffective one at that

when all else fails, lie through your teeth

In a completely unsurprising move that everyone knew was coming, Attorney General Eric Holder took the stand in front of the United States Senate Judiciary Committee earlier this week, unzipped his trousers, and urinated all over the memories of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and ICE Agent Jaime Zapata

quote of the day – chris muir

There is a whole host of reasons that, despite being a Christian and despite graduating from one of their high schools, the Roman Catholic Church and I never particularly got along. Religions are kind of like that, though, which is why it is just as well there seems to be …

not what i have come to expect

Al Gore is a liar. I know that. You know that. Pretty much the whole world knows that at this point. However, I am disappointed to no end that Bill Nye, the Science Guy, went along with this farcical “science experiment”:

Bill Nye, in his narration at 0:48

albatrosses come home to roost

For those who are interested in those kinds of things, this morning a source informed me that Michael Bonomo (aka "mikeb302000") has been banned from Daily Kos*, apparently for maligning, insulting, and libeling veterans; maliciously misrepresenting comments from others in damaging fashions; perpetrating specious ad hominem attacks; and engaging …

just being helpful

Confused by high-school drama about “blacklists” and “boycotts” and “Trilateral Gun Blogger Commissions”? 

Perturbed by outlandish claims presented without the slightest shred of supporting evidence or documentation? 

Want to be let in on the not-really-“conspiracy” that does not actually exist? 

I now have the full story that some …

president obama’s downgrade

I firmly believe (and the evidence indicates) that the current economic situation, and credit downgrade, are the product of years’ and years’ worth of effort by short-sighted morons on all sides of the aisles, but this graphic was just too damned funny not to share:

presidentobamasdowngradepresidentobamasdowngrade

The not-really-"progressives" of our country …

this is the future of america

My parents keep telling me that it is incumbent upon my generation and the generation after me to fix all of the various economic and political problems that their generation and the generation before theirs have created over the past 50 years. Every time they bring that up, I have …

speaking of the tsa

Around seven months ago, almost to the day, I wrote the following words:

There is no safe level or threshold of ionizing radiation exposure.

… in response to the Thousands of Sexual Assaulters’ new "backscatter scanners" and the x-ray radiation those devices will be flooding users …

i would be worried

… if I were them. But if I were them, I never would have partaken in an operation that resulted in thousands of untrackable firearms being smuggled across the border into Mexico with full governmental approval, and I would thus never have been an accessory-before-the-fact to countless murders in both …

full of sound and fury

As you have unquestionably heard by now (I found out by way of a remarkably snippy tweet from the White House), Our Glorious President has finally released his long-form birth certificate

*shrug* 

I have repeatedly written in the past that I really did not care about the specifics …

an interesting comparison

Last week, Senator Lamar Alexander replied to an email I sent him concerning the impending decision from the BATFE on the importability of certain shotguns; at the time, I noted how the letter seemed to consist mostly of grandstanding about the Senator’s past efforts in regards to the Second Amendment, …
