Lying to further their political agenda

White House Directed Incorrect Benghazi Narrative

Its what all politicians do, but the current crop in the White House are so damn blatant about it.

The one has not one damn thing to do...

...with the other.

FedEx shooting comes days after Georgia “Guns Everywhere” bill signed

Maybe the writer might have pointed out the the shooting took place in a posted facility where employees and visitors were prohibited from having weapons to defend themselves instead of implying a connection that doesn't exist. Too much to ask, I guess.

This is obscene.

Report: Pentagon to destroy $1B in ammunition

Sell it, and at least try to recoup some of our tax money.

"Error"

That's another word for it, but not the one I'd use.

Massive errors in the Violence Policy Center’s “Concealed Carry Killers”

Now that'd down right embarassing.

This is the best the Demanding Moms can do with Mikey's money?

The difference between "Grassroots" and "Astroturf".

Gun Rights activists pay their own way. The Everytown "protestors" are on Bloomberg's dole.

Ten days after Michael Bloomberg announced a $50 million investment in gun control and proclaimed the National Rifle Association should be afraid of him, the Bloomberg-backed Everytown for Gun Safety group is taking the fight directly to NRA — picking up a chunk of the tab for hundreds of activists and gun violence survivors to attend the annual NRA convention in Indianapolis.

If that's the best support you can buy, you've already lost.

Typical

Watch What Happens When Dana Loesch Confronts One of Bloomberg’s Anti-Gun Partners

The prohibitionists will talk trash through online venues and their media whores, but when their targets show up to talk in person they don't want to play. So much for having a conversation.

Now Clinton is taking part in an event for Giffords's gun control group, which supports the "expanded background checks that failed in the Senate last year."

Clinton supports greater gun control but has also warned Democrats that supporting gun control could "[antagonize] people entrenched in the gun culture."

Well, that's not a momentus start.

Heh. Goes to show money don't buy brains.

Nothing much else to say.

If you have to pony up 50 millions dollars...

...to get support for your agenda, Mikey, then it ain't grass roots. Its astroturf.

Michael R. Bloomberg, making his first major political investment since leaving office, plans to spend $50 million this year building a nationwide grass-roots network to motivate voters who feel strongly about curbing gun violence, an organization he hopes can eventually outmuscle the National Rifle Association.

'cause I can.

The same old prohibitionist bullshit.

On Cliven Bundy vs. the BLM

Cliven Bundy’s problem isn’t that he didn’t pay — he did — or that his cattle bother tortoises — they don’t — it’s that he’s not a Reid donor. - Dana Loesch

Bill Whittle: Disarming the Warriors

Indict Him.

This is not 1875

...and an increase in crime and there'll be blood in the streets. Just because of open carry?

Really?

Chick Little lives.

"If the word got out or if people knew they could come to Tennessee and carry a weapon, I'm sure that armed robberies are going to increase," said Claiborne County Sheriff David Ray in a WBIR report.

"Apparently they're wanting everyone in the state of Tennessee to carry a firearm. I'm against that. I think it's ridiculous," he continued. "This is not 1875. It just seems to me this is going to escalate all the crime to a higher level."

The bill passed the Tennessee Senate but still has to get through their House. I suspect the opposition of some Sheriff's has more to do with losing say over who gets to carry and permit fees than the concerns noted above.

That should go over well in November.

My son registered to vote today.

No ID required. Fill it out and mail it in or drop it off. The form did ask for either your Driver's License number or the last four of your Social Security number, so I guess there may be some verification of some sort. Scary isn't it.

In [formerly] Great Britain...

A vodka packaged in a gun-shaped bottle alongside a glass grenade has been found in breach of UK alcohol marketing laws for its “inappropriate” association to violence and aggression.

That's just silly.

Good.

So, in New Jersey, a former firefighter heard someone rumbling around outside his parent's house. Thinking it might be a burglar, he grabbed his shotgun and went to investigate. Turned out it was the local cops looking for a bad guy. They figured they'd found one and arrested him for possession of a firearm with an unlawful purpose and aggravated assault by pointing a firearm. The local police chief said he should have called 911. The possible sentence was ten years in prison.

Fortunately, the jury thought different, and found him not guilty.

Yup.

You'd think the prohibitionists....

...would get the message. Well, maybe they'll get it through the ballot box in 2014.

They'll be blood in the streets!

Not.
