Intentional Confusion
So you read the headline of this Strib article, and you think perhaps straw-purchased guns are turning up more often, or maybe that some people out there with clean criminal records are going out to Fleet Farm, picking a gun from the display case, conducting a completely legal and above board purchase, and then embarking…

Cherry-Picked
Not to sound cynical about big media – good heavens no, not me – but when I see the New York Times reporting on active shooters, I pretty much expect their “reporting” to either lie, or to hide the accurate conclusion in plain sight. And they’ve done that. They include a snazzy, Edward Tufte-style graphic…

Horrible If True
If the story presented in this Wall Street Journal article is true, what happened at the elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, could have been prevented or greatly mitigated: Local residents voiced anger Thursday about the time it took to end the mass shooting at an elementary school here, as police laid out a fresh timeline…

Degüello, Metaphorically Speaking
Question: Why did President Harris go so long on gun control at Biden’s “bedtime chat” the toher night? Answer: Because Big Left may not get another chance at it, at least not via due process of law. Americans are ditching gun control: The number of Americans supporting enacting new gun laws over protecting gun rights…

The Case We’ve Been Waiting For?
News came out yesterday. WIth a win for the NYSRPA would – presumably if incorporated – require “strict scrutiny” of gun laws compliance with the Second Amendment. Literally, they could not infringe the right of the people to keep and carry firearms, provided they aren’t otherwise disqualified from doing so. The left is getting the…

Question
Record number of women and minorities seeking concealed carry permits. When Harris gets elected and her first Executive Order bans all guns, will the New York Times headline read, “Women and Minorities Hardest Hit”? Joe Doakes Should Harris/Biden win, and the Senate flip, and given the left’s predilection to overreaching when they get power, I suspect…

Ready For An Apology
The Washington Post, which endlessly editorializes in favor of stricter gun control laws and bans, writes approvingly of armed citizens carrying assault rifles, shotguns and pistols in the streets of Minneapolis. NAACP, which advocates strict gun control laws and bans, is organizing the armed citizen patrols. Neither of these organizations come right out and say it, but by…

Every Once In A While…
…a prog lets the truth slip out. “Beto” O’Rourke, fake Latino beneficiary of a fake “Beto-mania” and former Presidential candidate – screwed up and told the truth behind Big Left’s approach to guns; they want them. All of them. Eventually. Beto slipped up and, in a fit of trying to re-attain relevance, let the end-game…

No Guns, No Coverage
When I first saw the headline for this piece on social media, I thought it was Babylon Bee spoofing big modern media: Kyoto Animation arson killings didn’t get much attention because we couldn’t demonize guns Sure enougb, it’s an actual USAToday editorial, about the Kyoto Animation Studio mass killing -= which involved arson, not guns,…

Idiots Abroad
One Ron letnes (it’s his capitalization – and reading the rest of his not-very literate screed, I’m pretty sure it’s not a “style” thing), who writes for “Engage”, the “progressive” Evangelical Lutheran Church’s anti-gun propaganda blog, took a trip to Europe. And he writes…: Linda and I spent a month touring Europe this summer. We…

The Wrong Profile
The unqualified David Hogg couldn’t get into a junior college in Florida on his merits, but Harvard grabbed him because he’s got the right Social Justice profile. Kyle Kashuv – who survived the same shooting – got into Harvard on his merits. Or so he thought. Kashuv explains in this twitter thread: 1/ THREAD: Harvard…

A Nation Of Logrolled Sheep
Gun violence is schools is a quarter what it was 25 years ago, even with the tragic mass shootings in recent years thrown in. But Big Left and Big Media have succeeded in convincing a fair number of people that 2+2=5: Twenty years after the Columbine High School shooting made practicing for armed intruders as routine as…

Open Letter To Senator Scott Jensen
To: Sen. Scott JensenFrom: Mitch Berg, Impudent PeasantRe: Know Your Friends Sen. Jensen, Last year, as he got set up to run for re-election as a Republican in decaying purple district, Representative Dario Anselmo made a very visible point of cuddling up to Minnesota’s various gun control groups. He spoke at their rallies. He offered…

Un-Hogged
A Parkland kid realizes he’s been used: “My whole message is I was propped up as an expert. The whole message was these kids are the real experts,” [Cameron] Kasky told Fox News Radio’s Benson & Harf on Wednesday. “Look, I have some very intelligent friends. Some friends who can intellectually run circles around me, but I’m not the…

Overheated
So yesterday, the Feds handed down a yuge win for people who’d make firearms using 3D printers. A settlement with “radical libertarian” Cody Wilson – who first posted 3D printer files for firearms on his website “defcad.com”, was settled on First and Second Amendment grounds. And Big Left – in this case, through technology site “Wired” –…

Why Do Liberals Want Children To Be Murdered (Even After They’re Born)?
Obama’s education secretary urges people to boycott schools “until gun laws are changed”: Duncan said in an interview Saturday that the idea was intended to be provocative but that an aggressive approach like a school boycott is needed if gun laws are ever going to change. He has school-age children and said if this idea…

This Is The Minnesota Gun Control Movement
Joe Campbell is a PR flak for an agency that does “work” for “Protect” Minnesota, Minnesota’s ghoulish gun-grab group. Rob Doar is a friend of this blog, a married father and a guy who works his butt off for civil rights, having spent this past session lobbying, pretty much on his own time for the…

The Next Time Some Puling Progressive…
…condescendingly coos “nobody is coming for your guns”, grab them by the throat and force them to read this. I authorize the use of extreme force to accomplish this. And then never, ever even think about compromising with the orcs.

Play Progressive Games, Win Progressive Prizes
Dario Anselmo is the lone Republican representing Edina. Now, considering the Democrats that run in Edina these days – Anselmo beat Ron Erhardt, after all – it might be fair to say that of the options available, Anselmo passes the Buckley test (the most conservative candidate who can win) under the circumstances. But as we’ve…

Dereliction
Glenn Reynolds on the institutional deflection after Parkland: Despite receiving a warning directly from the Russian government, the FBI failed to stop the Tsarnaev brothers from staging the Boston Marathon bombing. Despite having plenty of resources, the Charlottesville police failed to stop a car attack that left a woman dead. The FBI interviewed Omar Mateen,…

Our Cravenly Dishonest Media
Channel 11 – which long since gave up any pretense of not being a DFL PR firm – notes that Remington, America’s oldest gun maker, has filed Chapter 11. Now, people were talking about the likelihood, and even imminence, of Remington’s demise a solid year ago, as the Trump election caused panic-buying of guns (except…

Proof, Pudding, Etc.
Joe Doakes from Como Park emails: Kid with gun in school shoots girl, shoots boy, gets shot by armed cop in school. Shooting over. A good guy with a gun stopped the shooting. Armed police inside the school immediately engaged the shooter. Nobody died. Everything we’ve been saying about ineffective gun control was proven true…

“I accepted the results of an opinion poll taken in a country where it was illegal to hold certain opinions. You can imagine the poll-taking process: “Hello, Mr. Peasant, I’m an inquisitive and frightening stranger. God knows who I work for. Would you care to obstensibly support the dictatorship which controls every facet of your…
