Universal background checks are NOT a bad idea

Well, on gun ownership they are — a terrible idea, in fact — mostly because they represent an onerous imposition on moving legal private property between friends and family members, and because, pace what their cynical proponents claim to be hoping they do, they are a rather transparent step in a process that the left (and many statists in the GOP) hopes will yield a national gun registry, the forerunner

SHOCKER: Cuomo bravado over NY’s historic gun control turns to blame shifting as law proves awful

NYP: A Cuomo administration source is flatly denying the governor’s claim that his new anti-gun SAFE Act was carefully drafted, saying the governor himself wasn’t even aware of some provisions when it was hastily enacted into law. “The governor thought the limit on the size of [gun] magazines would only apply to assault-style rifles, not to handguns,’’ said the source. “That’s why there’s the big problem now with handguns, among

Leif and Me

JohninFirestone sent me a then/now photo of Leif Garrett, knowing as he does that Leif and I share a certain kinship. But I’ve never said why. Until now. Leif, circa 1976. Me, circa 1975-77.    

Economist: Prepare for an “economic Pearl Harbor”

James Rickards and Newsmax financial editor Aaron DeHoog come together to scare the living shit out of you. The powers that be, they argue, are intentionally weakening the dollar to try to stave off a collapse. That’s what QE is really about. And global retaliation for the currency war — the third in history, and potentially the most destructive — is coming. We are its pawns. Stock up on seeds.

Former-star Jim Carrey equates guns owners to hicks, guns to dicks

This whole thing being somewhat ironic because, to most gun owners, guns are merely tools; whereas to most gun owners, Jim Carrey is both a tool and a dick. Synchronicity! Somebody really ought to find Alanis Morissette. There’s a song in this somewhere — and it almost certainly has to be better than the one Carrey come up with, filled as it is with sad, forced references, truly dated dogma,

Corey Haim’s “Notes from the afterlife,” 15

I’m really not sure why it is that the Ouija people keep asking me if this Bashar al-Assad guy has shown up here — first, because if you follow the papers at all, you’d know that he didn’t get capped by a bodyguard; and second, because — not to be all judgmental and shit, because that’s not me — but the dude sounds like a total cock bag who was never

Obama girls, Biden bravely confront sequester, refuse to be subjected to draconian cuts

When Republicans first unconscionably forced onto America the Obama designed and negotiated sequester — against the vehement protests of its designer and negotiator, who noted that the sequester he designed and negotiated would harm the economy terribly, and that the GOP would be responsible for what he designed and negotiated — the position of the current Administration was that we as Americans need to tighten our belts and start making

“Morning Joe panelists: Opposition to Bloomberg’s Anti-Gun Campaign Motivated by Anti-Semitism”

Well, they wouldn’t be the left if they didn’t find in principled opposition to the overweening attempts by an egocentric billionaire to legislate away one of our natural rights well beyond his own city some sort of ulterior motive by fringe constitutionalists and teabaggers. This time, it’s our Jew hate. Which we’re camouflaging in our pretend outrage at common-sense gun regulations being pushed nationally by a kindly rich Hebe who

Let me explain something to you voters who keep falling for the promise of “conservative” Democrats

They don’t exist. They are a convenient fiction, a chimera, an Obama growth plan, a faerie riding a unicorn on the way to slay dragons with the help of a misunderstood troll. And each and every time you fall for their easy and empty political bromides — be it in West Virginia or Colorado or Pennsylvania or Michigan, etc. — they will use that opportunity to rob you of some
