We're the Only Ones Unplanned Enough

The accidental discharge was just one of 29 unplanned shootings by the city's police officers since 2005, when the department began tracking all shots fired, planned or otherwise. [More]
 Not just "Only Ones." San Francisco "Only Ones."



Hey, it's not like an example hasn't been set for them by top management...

Return to Snitchland: We're the Only Ones Taking Tips Enough

Ross and another woman, Malva Delley, are accused of collecting $250,000 in rewards for bogus tips to the Crime Stoppers program for more than five years. [More]
Gee, anonymous snitch lines lend themselves to abuses. By cops.



Who knew?



This is actually quite a useful bit of information to have--the next time there's some gun "buyback" or snitch line promising anonymity and no questions asked, here's proof that questions are asked, masks are publicly ripped off, and punishment will be meted out.

Snitchland

The individual was talking on a cell phone at the time of the incident. It's likely that is the object the passerby identified as a gun. [More]
Yeah, that's the kind of country I want to live in!

Ceding Ground

We urge you to restore the right to open carry handguns... [More]
No man has authority to do that, and we don't want to encourage anyone to think they do. You need to insert "recognition of" in there.

We acknowledge that limiting the privilege to conceal handguns in Florida to those over 21 years of age via a fee based permit system is a reasonable exercise of our state's police powers...
No, no, no. I don't acknowledge that at all.



Sorry, Sean. I don't mean to rain on your parade, and I'm glad you're showing initiative and leadership, but this could benefit from some review and revision work.

The Right of the People NOT to Keep and Bear Arms Shall Not Be Infringed

Pacifists, too, have Second Amendment rights. [Right]
I agree with Mr. Madison:

In what was to become the second amendment, the right to bear arms, Madison proposed a recognition of the rights of what we would call conscientious objectors: "no person religiously scrupulous of bearing arms, shall be compelled to render military service in person."
That doesn't mean they have the right to impose their superstitions on me--matter of fact, one would think the First Amendment would specifically prohibit the government enforcing such dogma. That is, if honest men made laws and honest men judged based on them.



As for disparaging either hunting or self-defense or even militia capabilities of air guns, tell that to this guy.

Within Reason

It seems no restriction is reasonable for some of these gun-loving lawmakers. [More]


That seems reasonable to me. Much more reasonable than Journal Gazette editors blood-dancing and acting like they've given good reason to further enslave and endanger their countrymen with their fascist useful idiocy.



I wonder if "Authorized Cartoonist" Gary Varvel got either knee or jaw cramps drawing the accompanying illustration, and if he used the same McGruff for his model...? I mean, all things considered, it seems reasonable.

Renewal

And here we thought a long sleep meant we'd awaken refreshed...[Read]

A Pro-Gun Politician

Furthermore, I believe the Second Amendment is in the Constitution to provide the last defense of a free people against a tyrannical government. [More]
And that's why I'm publicly calling for civil war!



I asked a friend in MT "Is this moron senile or just a career Fudd?"



His response:

Yes.

We're the Only Ones Illuminating Enough Redux

The shooting of an innocent, unarmed elderly Bronx man by a cop who was trying to turn on a pistol-mounted flashlight is at least the second accidental police shooting in the United States involving that flashlight model. [More]


Figures. The fallback position is blame the "combo."



Because we all know Furious Mike's "Only Ones" are so highly trained that they can be trusted with guns and you can't.
