Violent ‘antiviolence activists’ demonstrate ‘progressive’ Opposite Day truism

We see it every time an “anti-violence” advocate demands a state monopoly of – you guessed it – violence. [More]
My latest JPFO Alert notes that "progressive" has become a self-contradicting term. So guess what "anti-violence" activists are really demanding...?

Blowing it Open

She blew it open, She actually discovered that this had gone awry... [See video]
Sorry, but that's not correct.

See for yourself all that had been blown open and discovered before she entered the picture.  It's all documented and verifiable, and has been since the beginning.

So is this.

That's not to take anything away from outstanding investigative reporting. I have nothing but the greatest admiration for making this happen on network news. Vital and original information was uncovered and exposed, and without it, chances are it would have forever remained in the obscure province of disgruntled #justabloggers. But let's get the chronology straight, as well as who did what.

Ah well, I suppose I ought to be used to it by now. It's just that even fricking Wikipedia refuses to mention any of this in their "history," and not for lack of people making corrective entries. Those keep getting edited out. That makes Mike and me ideological "unpersons," written completely out of the narrative, and only those doing the editing could tell us their motives--if you could figure out who they are.

So why should we expect anything less from corporate media?

Maybe I ought to give Gottlieb his plaque back.

Oh, and one more thing, Laura: It wasn't a "sting."  Not unless you believe in Underpants Gnomes.

It gets old. And it's so unnecessary.

UPDATE: They can't say they/their staffs haven't been given verifiable information:
Look for absolutely nothing to happen in 3...2...1...

Lawsuit challenges federal machine gun ban

“By imposing such a ban on an entire class of weapons, the statutes and regulations exceed the power of the United States,” the complaint states. It makes its case by citing violations of Article I of the United States Constitution, the Second, Ninth and Tenth Amendments, and “principles of federalism and dual sovereignty. [More
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a challenge that, in a rational world, would not even be necessary, let alone controversial.

Malloy v Visconti

Of significance:

Visonti @4:27 -- "If they wanted to do something, they could have looked at the 30-round magazine that Adam Lanza used, and just targeted that."

Also throughout, plenty of calls for "Only Ones" in schools... I thought those are what we call "Gun-Free Zones."

Malloy @6:17 -- "I made a solemn oath."

Yes, you did.

Malloy @6:22 -- "The reality of large capacity magazines is they do allow a madman, or a disturbed individual, or someone with malice, or for that matter, someone who wants to fight against the federal government for whatever reason..."

Tiger Talkers

The only thing more ridiculous are the chest-thumpers who say they want to "get it on" now before they grow too old for the fight. Really? Are they ready for a civil war? Have they made all the preparations they need to? Have they trained, networked, worked the intelligence problem, or any of a million things necessary to prepare for such an eventuality? Do they even understand what that means, what the human cost would be? Recently, I walked with Bob Wright through the national cemetery at Shiloh battlefield park in Tennessee. We talked about what he called "the tiger talkers" and how he wished that he could drag all of them through the cemetery to get some idea of the reality of civil war, of the cost in blood and tears and irretrievable human potential.

A Review of ATF’s Investigation of Jean Baptiste Kingery

I can't get it to bring up anything but blank gray pages. Perhaps it is my browser settings and you will have better luck.

Alternatively, I can see it just fine using Google cache.  It's heavily redacted, but it does lead to a question I've never seen officially asked, let alone answered:

How is it ATF didn't violate ITAR arms export prohibitions?

Remember, U.S. Code also includes provisions for “principals” who “induce” or “willfully cause” offenses, so presumably those who did not physically walk guns but nonetheless induced lawbreaking could be in for a world of hurt if caught.

We're to believe ATF Phoenix was essentially a "lone wolf" operation, independent of all the other agencies that normally are integral parts of international operations?  State never knew nothin' 'bout birthin' no transfers?

A Moving Story

GUN BAN HEARING LOCATION MOVED
10.29.14

We have learned that the City of Corvallis has changed the location of its hearing on a proposed ban on loaded firearms in the city to the Majestic Theater. The hearing is scheduled for Nov 3rd at 5.30 PM. The theater is at 115 SW 2nd Ave in downtown Corvallis.

It's imperative that Second Amendment supporters be at this hearing. If this ordinance is passed it will be one more nail in the coffin of our rights and these bans will spread across the state.

Please do all you can to be at this hearing and speak out for gun rights and the Constitution.

Fast Track to Tyranny

Shall we see what a source that can hardly be accused of bias in favor of gun owners, the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, has to say about boys who lawfully own guns with the approval of responsible parents?
Boys who own legal firearms, however, have much lower rates of delinquency and drug use and are even slightly less delinquent than nonowners of guns.

We Hate to Say We Told You So

But they did.

GRNC just sent out an open letter in re the armed robbery at the "No Guns" state fair to the mudhead responsible for giving criminals the advantage:


An open letter to North Carolina Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler
Dear Commissioner Troxler:
So much has happened since last we spoke. Since then, as we both know, an activist judge sanctioned your willful misinterpretation of N.C.G.S. 14-415.23, allowing you to prohibited lawful concealed carry at the state fair. 
When concealed carry at the fair was under debate, GRNC pointed out that ostensibly “gun free” zones actually attract sociopaths and criminals who know potential victims are disarmed. Indeed, of mass shootings in the United States since 1958, all but two have taken place in “victim disarmament zones.” 
At a highly publicized press conference, you responded that you would have more than two hundred armed law enforcement officers inside the fair, to which we noted that your prohibition would still leave concealed handgun permit-holders defenseless in parking areas surrounding the fairground.
When your security chief, Joel Keith, was asked at yet another press conference whether disarmed fair-goers could receive armed escorts to their vehicles, he responded in the affirmative. Unfortunately, that promise was carried out only reluctantly, and only when people demanded it. Worse, the metal detectors you promised for fair entrances were used only sporadically, as numerous fairgoers have reported.
Sometimes, I hate to be right: Three of the people you purported to protect were robbed at gun point. That’s right, Commissioner Troxler; in case you haven’t heard, here is an early account from WTVD:
“Raleigh police are looking for two armed men who robbed three people at gunpoint late Saturday night near the North Carolina State University Club.
“Police say the victims were robbed around 11:35 p.m. as they were walking back to their vehicles on Hillsborough Street after leaving the North Carolina State Fair. Fortunately, no one was injured.
“The suspects drove off in a tan or cream-colored Lincoln. They're described as two black males, one wearing a gray-hooded sweatshirt, one wearing a black-hooded sweatshirt and each armed with handguns.” [Emphasis added] 
Where were your law enforcement officers when these innocent people were victimized, Commissioner Troxler? What if the criminals hadn’t just robbed them, but murdered them as well? One of the suspects is in custody but, of course, that would be far too late to help the victims.
Consider that by holding press conferences and announcing to the world that fair-goers would be disarmed, you also declared open season on them by informing violent predators that their victims would be defenseless. Indeed, you and Superior Court Judge Donald Stephens should count yourselves fortunate that nobody was killed.
Even before our involvement, word of your failure to follow through on protecting the fair-goers you disarmed is spreading throughout the gun rights community nationwide. Perhaps you should convene another press conference … this time, to issue an apology.
Respectfully,
F. Paul Valone
President, Grass Roots North Carolina
P.S. I note from USA Today that the fair’s attendance was down nearly 20% from its peak in 2010. Could it be that gun owners decided to stay home?
Paul's a lot nicer than me.

I'd have begun my letter "Dear Sexy Tractor Man," with all the ridicule that invites.
