Initial reports were that the capitol was on lock down and shooter on the loose. And boy are their faces red. Not really, that would require the ability to feel shame. Narrative and all. After a notable event, the press will get everything substantially wrong.

They have all that gun control they tell us America needs.

The most busted name in news: Seen on facebook. First, it was an AR-15. Then an AR-15 shotgun. And now it’s a someone taking Joe Biden’s advice and using a shotgun. Then he used a shotgun to steel an AR-15. Now, it’s no AR at all. Then there were up to three shooters. And then […]

Many of us probably wouldn’t be here today, if it wasn’t for the NRA.

So, a former LAPD police officer went crazy and started shooting people. Because only the police should have guns. There’s a whole lot of WTF with this story. First, is the guy seems to be a leftist loon, spouting the media narrative. Now, I don’t really care for the game of “pin the political ideology […]

Blogs? Could be. The press is pretty much in league with the powers that be and their narrative is often nonsensical and trivial.

Obama to congress: Fuck you Candidate Obama on executive privilege. He should talk to this president Obama guy. NRA to score the Holder contempt vote. Damn good questions: How can the President assert executive privilege if there was no White House involvement? How can the President exert executive privilege over documents he’s supposedly never seen? […]

Ted is getting the secret service treatment (not the one with hookers) over his rhetoric in which he said, clearly figuratively, chop their heads off in November. And did he threaten the president? No. His rhetoric is definitely over the top. His over the top rhetoric probably brings people into the movement. Adam Winkler says […]

I’ve made it clear my thoughts on the shooting of Trayvon Martin. Pretty much, it seems to be death by mall ninja. But this case proves how poor a grasp the press, liberal blogs, and anti-gunners (but I repeat myself) have on Florida’s no duty to retreat law. It’s always about race: Dark hispanic = […]

Raising awareness of gun carrying. I’m surprised the press coverage seems mostly positive and not what I would expect the press to do. I expected them to use the violent tea partier narrative.

Caught a bit of the History Channel show last night. It’s quite entertaining. Apparently, almost all cultures came up with some sort of zombie in their literature or beliefs. The early Irish were so afraid of being eaten by the walking dead that the buried the dead with bricks or rocks shoved into their mouths. […]

Concealed carry permit holders overwhelmingly are law-abiding. But that doesn’t fit the Brady Campaign narrative.

It’s like a daily feature. Tam: ATF has announced a plan to cut down on gun smuggling to Mexico. I guess going cold turkey would be too hard. David Hardy: Did Fast & Furious violate the Arms Export Control Act? Issa and Grassley’s letter to holder. Interesting. Makes clear the Melson likely isn’t the fall […]

How can someone stumble, falter and win with a 3 to 1 margin? The spin from the local press regarding guns is amusing. They really don’t get it.

The Mexican gun canard is in full swing again. It’s like there’s a narrative or something. And the inadequacy of U.S. efforts to stop the illegal trafficking? Sounds to me like the inadequacy is from the folks who keep letting the guns get in the country. You know what would stop that? Some sort of […]

Texas Democrat wins nomination for the US senate, and the party establishment is not a fan. So, in fine Democrat tradition, they will likely ignore the results of the election and do what they want, which is not support her. But this ain’t a post about that. It’s about the candidate. You see, the candidate […]

CSM: Political extremism: Not so easy to categorize But three days ago: John Patrick Bedell: Did right-wing extremism lead to shooting? The latter was also wrong. It’s pointless to classify this stuff. The crazy happens to lefties, righties, and those who are politically indifferent. The recent outbreak of violence from the left is not indicative […]

Shifted to a lone gunman narrative. Several folks report lots of shots and rifle fire in different areas. 2 suspects released. Supposedly a fourth person in custody. Shooter was killed by police. Keeps changing so no more posting on it until we actually, err, know stuff.

In the US: I would like to see the assault weapons ban reinstated – it’s not philosophical, it’s because of what we have seen on the ground…There is a direct correlation between the assault ban and expiring in 2004 and the numbers – simply the sheer numbers – of assault weapons that we seize in […]

Late yesterday, the few lefty blogs I read and the few lefty commenters I encountered were all saying the same thing about the holocaust museum shooter. They all said something to the effect of if only the DHS didn’t have to redact that report on right wing extremism, then everything would be all rainbow-farting unicorns […]

Bill Conroy: Experts suggest Mexican weapons-bust press conference may have been staged event […] there is just one problem with this narrative. According to U.S. law enforcers, specifically the ATF, the captured weapon is not what it appears to be, or at least what it was purported to be by the Mexican police commander. In […]

A lot more on 20/20’s hit piece on guns from David Rittgers: Picking people without concealed carry permits to represent the armed citizen and rigging the scenario to ensure that they don’t defeat your narrative is propaganda, not journalism. Meanwhile, Sensibly Progressive on the hatchet job: Ms. Sawyer set out to do an anti-gun piece, […]

Having blamed guns, NRA, right wing radio, ammo prices and the economy comes a new one: The Link Between Gay Marriage and Mass Murders I’m sure some AP hack is on the scene investigating now.

Some facts about gun shows. Rather surprising since it doesn’t fit the usual narrative.

National Review‘s Kathleen Parker on The Palin Problem: Palin’s narrative is fun, inspiring and all-American in that frontier way we seem to admire. When Palin first emerged as John McCain?s running mate, I confess I was delighted. She was the antithesis and nemesis of the hirsute, Birkenstock-wearing sisterhood ? a refreshing feminist of a different […]

Looks like the LA Times is the latest to perpetuate the automatic weapons and ammunition are flowing virtually unchecked from border states into Mexico lie. This canard has been debunked many times (here’s one). Meanwhile, Sebastian notes: This narrative has been repeated in so many papers, presented in the exact same manner, you almost have […]

Colt LE 1020 with pics and narrative and stuff.

I started watching it but was interrupted. David Hardy notes that it is not accurate, in the same way that The Path To 9/11 is not accurate: I watched Assault on Waco on the Discovery Channel last night, having sent the producers some footage and audiotapes…. I gave up after the first 20 minutes or […]

Well, sort of: On March 1, 2006, WKRN-2 in Nashville, Tennessee ran a short news feature on the best ways to deduct charitable donations on your income tax report. The segment, which was introduced and read by afternoon anchors Bob Mueller and Anne Holt, featured numerous tax deduction tips and a lengthy soundbite from an […]

I watch a lot of foreign and independent movies. I’ll post occasional reviews of some of the best, hoping to persuade folks to give them a try. These films may be odd or in another language, but they will reward those who give them a try.
