How much evidence of entrenched unmovable leftist ideology can you functionally absorb in less than one week?  There is no moderation, nor capacity for conversational compromise.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – A suburban New York newspaper that sparked an uproar among gun enthusiasts by publishing names and addresses of residents holding pistol permits is now planning to publish even more identities of permit-toting locals.

Further names and addresses will be added as they become available to a map originally published on December 24 in the White Plains, New York-based Journal News, the newspaper said.

The original map listed thousands of pistol permit holders in suburban Westchester and Rockland counties just north of New York City. (more…)

What do Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, The RNC, Mitt Romney, Wayne La Pierre,  The NRA and NRA President David Keene have in common?

They don’t know their enemy, nor how to fight back against them.   They are insufferably out of touch, out of sync, and have no rhythm because they are all operating on broken historical paradigms.

Consider this latest round of NRA pushback as summed up by Jim Hoft in this headline at Gateway Pundit:

NRA Mocks Feinstein’s Ignorant Gun-Ban Bill: Next She’ll Want to Add “Nuclear Bomb” to Banned Gun Features –    “Mocking“?  Strong in the stupid force is this crew.   Hoft puts a link to the NRA article which includes:

Feinstein’s 1994 ban listed “grenade launcher” as one of the prohibiting features for rifles. Her 2013 bill carries goes even further into the ridiculous, by also listing “rocket launcher.” Such devices are restricted under the National Firearms Act and, obviously, are not standard components of the firearms Feinstein wants to ban. Perhaps a subsequent Feinstein bill will add “nuclear bomb,” “particle beam weapon,” or something else equally far-fetched to the features list.  (link)

This is the same insufferable mindset behind the “oh, no they can’t“, “they wouldn’t“, “that’s impossible“, approach toward legislative manipulations: (more…)

Prepare to be uncomfortable.    Today we will share some truthful information regarding the pending Dianne Feinstein “Assault Weapon” legislation.

But first I want to remind you of a specific date:  January 20th 2010.

That was the day AFTER Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown won his historic election and turned the “Kennedy Seat” back to the “Peoples Seat”……..

Everyone, and I do mean “everyone”, proclaimed victory in killing Obamacare, there was no way President Obama was going to get it passed now because Brown represented the proverbial 41st Senate vote against it, reducing the Senate support to 59 one less than Harry Reid needed.

Oh, how joyful, and insufferably naive the Constitutional Conservative, Tea Party, Republican movement was.   As a lone voice, we shouted out then the opinion that it did not matter, Obamacare would get through ‘By.Any.Means.Neccessary’, because we know these people and how they operate, and it did.   On January 20th our little voice was an infinitesimal minority – Everyone thought victory over Obama was at hand.

Not theirs.

(Via iOTW)  It’s all a conspiracy. And the lack of healthy food in the ghetto is because so much money is to be made there but nobody wants it because they hate blacks more than they love money. Everyone wants blacks to be fat and die. It’s because of slavery. It’s because the vegetables refuse to get up and walk into black people’s mouths and the great hand of government won’t work their jaws and command them to swallow. It’s because the McDonald’s in the ghettos insist on having those seductive hamburgers right alongside the garden fresh salads that nobody buys because of whitey.

I think that’s what I’m reading HERE

Guess what, blacktards? Walmart has LOADS OF GREAT FRESH AFFORDABLE PRODUCE but your whitarded libby “friends” won’t allow Walmart in your neighborhood because they hate black people they are non-union.  iOTW has the solution HERE

Just vote your opinion of this decision with the use, or lack thereof, of your wallet and purse.   I know we will….  Farewell Dick’s.

(via The Blaze)  Russell Kellner of Flower Mound, Texas, ordered three Troy Defense Carbine Semi-Automatic Rifles from Dick’s Sporting Goods on Black Friday, CBS 11 News reports.

At $799 apiece, a savings of $300 dollars, it “was a heck of a deal,” he said.  However, Kellner and his wife received only two of the three guns. They received a letter from Dick’s on Christmas Eve stating that the company would not fulfill the remainder of their order. (more…)

Gannett offers this statement with the release of each map:

One of the roles of journalists is to report publicly available information on timely issues, even if it is unpopular. We knew providing the information in the database in the context of our story would be controversial, but we thought that sharing this information was important in the aftermath of….

CHICAGO – Gave Bates smiled through tears as she swiped her hand across her phone, flipping through pictures of her cousin playing around and striking goofy poses.

“He was a lot of fun, very good at imitating people,” Bates said of Nathaniel T. Jackson, 40. “He just had so much fun all the time. And we all grew up together in the same house.”

Jackson was standing outside a store in the Austin neighborhood around 9 p.m. Thursday when someone walked up and shot him in the head, police said.   His death was apparently the 500th homicide in Chicago this year, marking a grim milestone. The city last reached that toll in 2008.

DiwataMan has put together a great timeline for the various media-spun stories surrounding Trayvon Martin, and his interactions with School Officials and the Miami-Dade School Police Department.

March 9

Martin was out of school because he was suspended for a week, and his father told the Herald that he brought him to Sanford “to disconnect and get his priorities straight.”

March 16

His father took Trayvon there[Sanford] after the junior was suspended for 10 days from Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High.

The family has refused to say why Trayvon was suspended, only offering that Trayvon had violated some type of school policy. They said his act was not violent or criminal.

“I wanted him to get back focused on his priorities, his goals,” Martin said of his decision to drive to Sanford with his son. “I wanted some one-on-one time.” (more…)

(Via Ricochet) [A] friend who is a congressional staffer told me about this riveting interview of David Keene, president of the NRA, by CBS’ Bob Schieffer. Keene does a good job of pleasantly responding to Schieffer’s biased and inaccurate questions.

The part that struck me? Schieffer asks if the NRA will support a ban on “military-style assault weapons,” saying that “even” police chiefs support that. Keene explains that military-style weapons are fully automatic and that the bans being proposed are actually of semi-automatic weapons. They oppose those ban attempts. Schieffer says, showing his ignorance of how semi-automatic weapons work, “How many rounds can these weapons discharge in five seconds?” Keene says, well, “They fire when you pull the trigger.” Schieffer says, yeah, “And they keep firing.” Keene explains that “No, they don’t keep firing.” (more…)

After a full two weeks of 24/7 psychological operations by the media on firearm ownership the Obama-left is not able to significantly budge the public opinion needle on Gun Ownership;  And if that wasn’t bad enough news for entrenched ideologues, most Americans still have favorable opinion of National Rifle Association.

WASHINGTON – The atrocities in Newtown constituted a turning point in the Beltway debate on gun control, with Democrats now preparing to introduce – and President Obama vowing to pass – new legislation aimed at further restricting gun ownership. The tragedy in Connecticut seems to have had a similar effect on journalists, who have been even more outspoken, it seems, in the wake of this tragedy than in other instances.

Whether their sentiments are shared by the public at large, though, is another question, and a new USA Today poll suggests that they’re not. The most surprising finding comes in the last line of the story linked above: “The USA TODAY/Gallup poll found 54% have a favorable opinion of the NRA, down six points from 2005, but generally in line with a series of polls done from 1993-2000.” (read more)
