Darren Yancy Answers Gun Rights Questionnaire

We've seen two Republican contenders for Chet Edwards' 17th Texas Congressional District seat respond to the Gun Rights Questionnaire. A third has also responded, and, unlike his rivals, provided the specific answers requested: Darren Yancy. [More]
I posted a third Gun Rights Examiner column because I finally got someone from the 17th District Congressional race in Texas who would answer the questions instead of giving me boilerplate.

Chuck Wilson Responds to Gun Rights Questionnaire

Reader reaction to what they perceived as non-responsiveness did not appear to help Mr. Curnock's cause. But he's not the only candidate in the 17th. I also approached Chuck Wilson...[More]
Today's second Gun Rights Examiner column continues exploring Republican alternatives for a Texas congressional race I've been following.

We're the Only Ones Making Ourselves at Home Enough

Four former members of a now-disbanded Chicago police unit admitted Friday to taking part in a brazen scheme in which they barged into homes and stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from suspected drug dealers and others — once after withholding insulin from a diabetic man until he told them where to find the cash. [More]
What's the rationale for them being the "Only Ones" again...?

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

Cutting to the Chase

Or more like cutting the chase altogether. Even foot chases. [More]

Can't risk our "Only Ones" getting hurt. It's not like we have any obligation to protect you.

What an idiot. What an incompetent.

The crime index in Wellford for 2007 was 470.8, compared to a U.S. average of 320.9 (per 100,000). Officers per 1,000 residents was 1.82 compared to the 3.0 U.S. city average. Their incomes are lower than the state average, as are their property values...

But an incident requiring a pursuit can never happen in Wellford.

Now if she really wants to save the taxpayers some money...

Be an interesting "Twilight Zone" twist to have someone chasing her shrieking ass, and watch the observing cops just sit back and take another sip of coffee because they're forbidden to run after anyone.

We're the Only Ones Enjoying the Perks of Office Enough

Former Holland Police Chief Kevin P. Gleason was sentenced to two years in prison yesterday after pleading guilty to charges he pocketed money from 16 town-bought guns and rifles he sold, many to police officers in other communities.

Mr. Gleason, 47, also admitted taking $2,190 from an evidence locker to which only he had access. The money had been seized in a drug arrest. [More]

Two years for this corrupt "Only One" hypocrite scum, who would send you or me up the river in a heartbeat for doing what he did.

I compare this to six-and-a-half years for Wayne Fincher and what I feel is best left unwritten.

A Security Blanket

“We don’t want the citizens of Illinois to feel afraid, and then feel as though their fear isn’t enough for us to want to protect them – this legislation should provide a blanket of comfort to those who have to deal with these issues,” Noland said. [More]
And if that doesn't work, you can always vomit, surrender or scream.

Forget reality, how do you feel?

These obscene, sick bastards.

And the stupid cud-chewers who keep them in power...

Not just a Sarah Brady Paradise "Only One" but a Thames Valley Sarah Brady Paradise "Only One."

We're the Only Ones Suffering from a Rash Enough

FBI Agent's Weapons Stolen During Rash of Break-Ins...

That FBI agent had a MP5 submachine gun, .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun and LAR-15 semiautomatic rifle stolen from his vehicle. [More]
But no harm, no foul, because he "followed ['Only Ones'] protocol," which I guess means they have an official procedure for putting "guns on the street."

IL State Police Self-Defense Advice for Women (Part Three): Scream

Which brings us to the final bit of advice they offer for warding off real-world demons:
"Remember that screaming may be just as important to your defense as any weapon."
Yes, by all means, scream. Howl in animal madness as everything human is stripped from you, and the only perceptions you experience are agony and terror. [More]
