    Apparently it is now legal for anyone to mail handguns

    That would still be illegal for many reasons. Why should mailing someone a handgun be any different than handing it to them in person ?

    The dysfunction in DC is so entrenched that it will take something the scale of the French revolution to dislodge it. Musk shitcanned 80% of the Twitter employees in a few months and the company runs better than ever. He is probably the world's foremost expert on trimming the fat from an...

    I don't think much will change honestly, other a guaranteed BS impeachment. It's not like the Republicans have actually been *doing* anything, and it's not like having one branch will be enough for the Democrats to do anything either. So, we'll go from a lot of noise but no real action to a...

    Here's Why Asian Americans Shifted Right

    The right has actually shifted quite a bit left since the 90s. Half of the policies that Trump holds and gets demonized for were mainstream democrat policies just a few years ago. Look at Clinton on immigration, or the LGB stuff for instance.

    Recycling is a Hoax - but you knew that - California Fail

    The whole point of a free market is to determine the proper value of things. That's why socialism always fails, without a free market the central planners can never appropriately price things. When you attempt to price things based on feelings you will inevitably screw them up. So, recycling...

    NFA registrations through the roof

    GOA has a lawsuit pending to eliminate that. The entire NFA is predicated on being a tax. If it's not a tax, then there is no legal justification for the registration. Can you have a $0 tax ?

    Yea, I never agreed with the idea of using irritants to disburse a violent crowd. You need to arrest, charge, and jail the violent ones. If you've still got them locked up from the last time, you don't have to worry about them coming back tomorrow. Otherwise you just encourage the "it's all a...

    You dont have a general legal right to resist violently. You do have a right to have the means to resist. If we ever got to the point of actual violence, then you'd better be prepared to kill everyone the government sends against you, because they will surely kill you if they can. This is...

    They're not committing crimes for illegals. They're using the illegals as the excuse to commit crimes. It's just like the leaders in a theocracy. They aren't tyrannical because of the religion, they're religious because it can be used to justify the tyranny.

    Protests in Iran evolving into an insurrection

    That's only useful if they can see the aircraft that are attacking them. We've already proven that they can't. Honestly, in a conflict with us they're probably better off if they could crowd their airspace with civilian aircraft to be in our way.

    So, you can hear the wife yelling "drive, baby drive". Now, while I don't particularly like the felony murder rule, and I think it should be abolished, Minnesota has a particularly strong version of it. The wife could be charged with her murder.

    She passed the bar for a justified arrest a long time before that. They were in the process of dragging her out and cuffing her when this all started. A guy standing in front of a vehicle is not a reasonable way to stop the car. That's just a great way to get injured. You stop vehicles with...

    My mind would have been more involved with getting out of the way than shooting her.
