And There Was War in Heaven

Unlike Mike, I just recently learned of this. [More]

I agree with him.

And no, if you don't know what it's about, don't worry about it. I'm not inclined to put out any further details at this time.

The Chase

Tonight, on "Stop the Threat"... [More]

We're the Only Ones Circumventing Enough

The Senate gave its stamp of approval Wednesday to an Assembly bill to allow police agencies to circumvent a recent win in the courts on how sheriffs consider carry permit applications. [More]
Gee, I wonder if you or I would be able to "circumvent" court rulings...?

Against the Rules

The 67-year-old man who shot an alleged intruder accused of trying to steal his prescription painkillers has been told by his landlord he cannot have a firearm in his apartment. [More]
We talked about this yesterday.

You could ask if they'll sign a contract assuming a duty to protect with liability should they fail, but it would just be simpler to tell him and the management company, and especially Russell Gagne, who would obviously rather their tenant had been killed by a home invader, to go f*** themselves. It's an unenforceable condition, and this is screaming for a lawsuit.

But the nerve of those a******s...

We're the Only Ones Incredibly Proud Enough

“Honestly, I’m incredibly proud at how I handled the situation,” said Spitzer... [More]
What, for reinserting yourself into a situation and threatening lethal force against someone who made no threats and who did not try to attack you...?
“There’s a million different ways to handle an issue or an incident, but what he did did not constitute any type of crime,” Lt. Jeff Hallock of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department said.
That's because he's a supervisor, enjoying "Only One"-like carry "privileges."  Any guesses what tune Hallock would be singing if you or I had done that in "may (not and probably won't) issue" SoCal?  Weapons charges, brandishing, assault, kidnapping...

Oh, look: Sandra Hutchens was co-chair of his campaign.

You know, the OC sheriff who "is back to making it tough for people to get concealed weapon permits."

There are laws for you and laws for them. Just like the Founders intended...


TTAG Exclusive: Fast & Furious Whistleblower Says Put ATF on Trial for Brian Terry’s Murder

“If I had my way, the ATF agents and managers who helped arm the rip crew defendants that killed Brian and the DOJ executives who turned a blind eye to the gunrunning would be on trial right alongside Ivan Soto Barraza and Jesus Lionel Sanchez Mesa,” Dobyns concluded. [More]
If I had my way, we'd also find out how much higher up charges would have to be filed.

The Old Double Standard

A Kentucky clerk defies a law she opposes, and they throw her in jail. [More]

The "progressive" and "tolerant" rulers of the City of San Francisco do it, and they send the cops after the guy for asking them if we're all free to disregard laws we oppose.

America. What a country.

Duck and Cover

The community college in California's capital was under protective lockdown as police continued to search late Thursday for the suspect, described as a man of Pacific Island background wearing a white T-shirt and beige cargo shorts. [More]
All I can say is, he'd better not be a student.

Hey: Great timing!

A Sophomoric Opinion

[More]
Now stamp your feet. If that doesn't work, hold your breath.

Exodus

The problem is, they bring their nest-fouling habits with them. [More]
