    big beautiful bill merged threads

    First the judges and now this. I have heard of this position before but I thought it had to deal with the rules of how a bill passes a vote. Now it appears the Democrats have found another way for unelected people to exercise power and thwart plans of those that were elected. Just more back...

    JD Vance kicked off bluesky in 15 minutes

    This is hilarious. JD Vance created a blue sky account and the tolerant moderators kicked him off in 15 minutes. Lol. https://redstate.com/katie-jerkovich/2025/06/18/jd-vance-signed-up-for-bluesky-with-trump-level-troll-and-hilarity-ensued-n2190647

    Trump official accidentally includes journalist in classified group text

    This is weapons grade incompetence on the part of the trump administration. Someone's head needs to roll, even if it is Trump's national security advisor (Michael Waltz). A journalist for the Atlantic magazine was included on a text group that included Vance, Hegseth and others discussing the...

    A Deep Dive into Cases Where Civilians Stopped Active Shooters

    Interesting reading. Top line summary: While civilians with concealed handgun permits stopped 51.5% of the active shootings in non-gun-free zones, police stopped 44.6% of the cases (124 arrested or killed by police, 32 committed suicide when police arrived = 156/350 = 44.57%). Interestingly...

    Excellent resource - Warren Burger Got it Wrong

    A great resource that shows the second amendment protects an individual right to bear arms, despite the comments of that eternal dipshit Warren Burger. Plenty of material to throw in the faces of liberals who ignorantly insist the second amendment is all about militias...

    TV reporter struck by shrapnel at Dem campaing event

    Morons and guns are a bad combination. At a "campaign event" for democrat senate candidate Lukas Kunce (rhymes with dunce) a reporter was struck by shrapnel. Kunce was with another idiot Adam Kinzinger. Apparently they wanted to show how tough and manly they are. Except they were shooting at...

    Police Officer Shoots Crazed Knife Attacker

    An excellent video that brings home just how little time a person has to deal with someone attacking with a knife. A cop was forced to shoot a woman who came after him with a knife. Unfortunately she was able to strike him a couple of times before he shot her. Personally I think he should...

    Monroe county claims 2nd amendment doesn't apply to private citizens

    Monroe county in a response to a federal lawsuit argues the second amendment only applies to militia and not private citizens. I would say it's hard to believe this type of historically ignorant nonsense would be used in 2024 but that's how deep the anti-gun mentality is...

    NY to require warning signs in gun stores

    You can't make this stuff up. It's impossible to think the legislators can do anything dumber but I'm sure to be proven wrong soon. Gun stores need to post signs warning guns are dangerous. Just like tobacco I guess...

    Actual research paper on gun ownership and penis size

    I suppose it was inevitable that some idiot would get a grant to study this. But guess what? Their hypothesis (small punishment size = more gun ownership) wasn't proven by their data! Academics really are some of the most ignorant and bigoted people in this country...

    True Intent of the democrats anti-militia bill

    A new bill of course promises to "hold individuals liable for certain types of conduct." But if passed it will be abused. Key takeaway: However, a new bill making its way through Congress known as the “Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act of 2024,” would make all of this illegal or at...

    The figure may not be 60% but I would bet more than 50% own guns based on the sales volumes over the past few years. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/washington-secrets/boom-up-to-60-of-americans-could-own-guns-twice-estimate Obama and biden are the two greatest gun salesmen in history!

    Denver Police Shoot One Gunman and Six Bystanders

    Very difficult to discern what is going on because the audio (suspiciously) doesn't come on until the shooting starts. Denver police identify and shoot a suspect but wind up hitting 6 bystanders as well. Was it a good shoot? Very tough to tell under the circumstances, particularly since there...

    The school shooting you won't hear about in the media

    What if there was a school where "troubled teens" could go? What if, in the name of social justice and equity, metal detectors were removed and police officers replaced by crisis counselors? There couldn't possibly be a shooting there, right? And if there were the media would make this just...
