Hillary: What difference does it make?

Asked and answered, sweetie.   h/t geoff B

This is what fascism looks like

You’ll note that it can come in a suit and wear hair gel just as easily as it can show up wearing a big mustache and military fatigues then pose on a balcony opening onto a public square.  Politico, “Rahm Emanuel presses banks on guns”: Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, moving to take a lead role in the gun control debate, is turning up the pressure on banks that do business

“Gen. Dempsey: If Women Can’t Meet Military Standard, Pentagon Will Ask ‘Does It Really Have to Be That High?’”

Of course.  Because you can’t have “equality” until you have homogeneity.  And to reach that you need social engineers and political masterminds to set up a system whereby that is encouraged and enforced — regardless of the ancillary effects, which in this case has to do with something so trivial as creating the best conditions for combat effectiveness and military victory. CNS News: Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the

a note on guns

  Here’s what I’ll tell Sen Feinstein and all the Democrats and Republicans who support any cosmetic bans on weaponry or any bans on my capacity to carry ammunition useful to that weaponry:  if you disarm us, I and millions like me will make it our mission to bring you down to the same level. Because all you are is a servant of the People.  Which position doesn’t place you

“Obama recess appointments unconstitutional, court”

Washington Times: In a case freighted with major constitutional implications, a federal appeals court on Friday overturned President Obama’s controversial recess appointments from last year, ruling he abused his powers and acted when the Senate was not actually in a recess. The three-judge panel’s ruling is a major blow to Mr. Obama. The judges ruled that the appointments Mr. Obama made to the National Labor Relations Board are illegal, and

Plain text of the ban

Courtesy Doug Ross. Looks like lawfully owned “assault weapons” purchased pre-ban are excluded, but there’s no pre-ban stamp for high-cap mags.  No more to be sold, period.  The black market will love them some of that.  Also, police and retired police are exempt.  Which begs the question, why not retired military?  Why not security guards or retired security guards?  Are retired gangstas exempt, too?  For the fairness? Too, there’s no

TO BE BANNED!

Demon machines!   Thankfully, my SCAR — along with all my magazines that hold over 10 rounds — fell into the drink before the evil things turned me into a sudden, shame-filled felon.  So.  Phew!

“California school district gets high-powered rifles”

If you consider .223 a “high-powered” round.  Which of course it isn’t. Until, that is, we’re told it is.   Which happens once it’s packaged in a  “military-style” frame with a pistol grip or a folding stock or a bayonet lug or a flash suppressor — packaging that evidently acts as a kind of Viagra to the .223 / 5.56 cartridge — a cartridge many localities won’t allow for deer

There is no opposition party

What’s more to say? I’m not trying to be negative.  I’m trying to be honest.  The latest GOP “strategy” — which began with a surrender on the “fiscal cliff”, leading to massive tax increases, and has continued now with a “suspension” of the debt ceiling (that is, a de facto raising of the limit) — is completely feckless.  Flaccid. Impotent. And yet it’s being touted by the GOP cheerleaders and

“Free speech an illusory concept” [Darleen Click]

“Not every opinion is valid, nor deserving of expression,” declared seventh-year [!] human rights [!!] student Arun Smith as he pulled on his pink patent-leather jackboots and engaged in an act of “forceful resistance” by destroying a nefarious Free Speech Wall “In organizing the ‘free speech wall,’ the Students for Liberty have forgotten that liberty requires liberation, and this liberation is prevented by providing space … for the expression of
