SUBTLE AS A 2X4 TO THE HEAD: Two responses to the NY Times’ call for mandatory gun confiscations
Erick Erickson needs to work on tighter groups, but we love his unusual response to the NY Times' whining demand for gun confiscations of America's favorite rifle. The NRA responded as well. A little less provocatively, but nicely. Piss off a gun-hating liberal. Join the NRA today.
FANNING THE FLAMES: Sun-Times columnist foments resentment and anger in black community
The mainstream media loves a good riot and conflict within a community. Mary Mitchell at the Chicago Sun-Times - known not-so-affectionately as "Mope-rah" - knows this well. It sells newspapers and keeps her employed. Better still, if she can help foment resentment and anger within the community,…

Chris Cox of NRA-ILA pushes back against Obama's lunacy. No, Mr. President, the NRA is not to blame (NRA-ILA) - Just when we think that politics can’t sink any lower, President Obama once again proves us wrong by politicizing the tragedy in San Bernardino before the facts were even…
DISINGENUOUS? CA Dem. Senator Barbara Boxer on day after terror attack: “Sensible gun laws work, we’ve proven it in California…”
California's rabidly-anti-gun Senator Barbara Boxer made a rather ill-considered comment yesterday: “Sensible gun laws work, we’ve proven it in California, and we’re not gonna give up.” Yes, indeed. Those California "sensible" restrictions on Californians' right to keep and bear arms certainly saved all those people dead and injured from Muslims…
MUSLIM TERROR HAS ARRIVED (AGAIN): San Bernardino was Muslim terror attack (in a gun-free zone)
, Terrorists, criminal and nut jobs love those "Gun-Free Zones". Those dangerous signs are like a dinner bell to bad guys, making them salivate like Pavlov's dogs.
