Pro-gun rights

Thanks for the mention, but I encouraged readers to hear what these people are saying for themselves-- this is the strategy the Astroturfers are going to use to separate out the new gun owners and divide political energy. If I'm the only one spending any time tracking what they're up to, those who don't know any better will "buy into this."

Kind'a makes me want to go out there and give her sponsors my business.

Despite that, the parsers and hairsplitters, desperate to weasel-word the narrative, tell us she's not a "spokesperson" -- even though Subway says she is -- and kneeling was not a national anthem protest. Disregard that she admits wanting to show "solidarity" with Colon Kaepernick, who specifically explained his motivation:

She didn't "stomp" on the flag, either, her media apologists point out. She just mugged for the crowd and "inadvertently" rubbed her shoe against it instead of doing the American thing and picking it up off the ground and chastising her teammate who intentionally dropped it.

But speaking of "progressive" corporate backers, hey kids, who wants to play in Subway's "former" spokesmolester's pants?

Another one bites the dust.

Life imitates art.

Don't expect the FBI to make an arrest for filing false reports when the perp promotes the Bureau's directed-from-the-top narrative.

Or as Fidel pointedly asked, "¿Armas para que?"

At least we know where leaders of our nation's capital stand...

If NSSF really wants to do something for the industry it ostensibly represents, how about leading them in a strike against supplying and servicing enforcers in states like New York that are out to destroy them?

Kind'a makes you wonder what all the "real reporters" are doing...

Funny, how the "Hero of Medicine" sounds just like so many of our "Gun Rights Leaders"...

So essentially the Biden administration treats captured illegal invaders better than it does decorated veterans...

And there's no shortage of order followers...

So basically they'll be subjecting millions to violence monopolist propaganda in order to swindle them out of their rights and get them to demand you surrender yours.

Sounds like an extension of ABC Family Values...

And we know how parent corporation Disney has felt about guns for a long time.

The dichotomy there is illustrative of the absolute irreconcilable differences that divide the country. The above supermarket in Butte, which also sells guns and ammo, is on a street that t-bones a mile-and-a-half down the road into Elizabeth Warren Ave.

I apologize to those of you who sent news link tips in my absence, but I just can't get to them, as I said before I left. Comments are reactivated but it will probably be tomorrow before I can get to any new tips sent in today -- we didn't get in until 2 a.m. on Saturday, and I had hours of weekend yard work along with new blog posts, article drafts, and an important legal filing I'll be talking about soon.

One thing about vacations -- with everything there is to do and the demands of travel, you sure don't get much relaxation.

I'm turning off blog comments so people don't think I'm either ignoring them or dead.

Please save yourself the wasted effort and hold off on all news tips, as I won't be able to deal with emails received before I return to open things back up.
