Mass Shooting Facts to Shut Down Your Liberal Sister and Her Annoying, Man-Bunned, Non-Binary 'Boy' Friend at Your Memorial Day BBQ

But getting guns out of America is like trying to get pee out of a pool. It can’t be done. There isn’t a “guns be gone” button to push. They are already here, and besides, 99.999999% of our guns don’t take lives. Also, guns are like drugs; if you make them illegal, people with just buy them illegally. Almost every gun-toting criminal got their gats illegally. I assure you there is already a flourishing industry of illegal gun sales in all of our major cities.

  PJ Media  "I bet Don Lemon only prays when there is a mass shooting. “Please, God, let the gunman be white.”

"The lefty sitzpinkler at CNN came up with snake eyes yesterday because the shooter is Hispanic. That changes the narrative for the left. Here is their playbook:

• When the shooter is white, the problem is “white supremacy.” White people are evil and here is the proof.
• When the shooter is a minority, blame easy access to guns, usually by attacking the NRA, which is run by “selfish, conservative, white, gun nuts.” The race of the shooter has nothing to do with it. Bury the story and move along.

So, now the harridans from The View have their show prep for the next few days: go after the “gun lobby,” Republican politicians, and those big, scary “assault rifles,” or as they now call them, “weapons of war.”

Anyone engaging in this sort of boring drivel doesn’t really want to stop the problem of mass shootings. They want to take our guns and have Republicans voted out. Gun-grabbers have no problem standing on the bodies of dead people, even kids, to get what they want.

George Bush assassination plot 'precisely' the concern we had with Biden's open border policies: Rep. Katko

But those people can be Democrat voters!

  Fox News  "The alleged plot to assassinate former President George W. Bush is "precisely" what critics of President Biden's open border policies have been warning about, one Republican lawmaker told Fox News on Tuesday.

" 'This is precisely the concern we had with the open border policies of the Biden administration. For the first year or so, we were fighting with them tooth and nail to try and get information about the number of terrorists that were coming across the border on the terror watch list that had been seized," Rep. John Katko, R-N.Y., who serves as ranking member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, said on "The Story." 

" 'They wouldn’t give it to us. They finally gave it to us, and now we know there’s a plot to assassinate a former president, and it was going to be carried out by smuggling people across the southern border.". . .

Middle Easterners Smuggled Into U.S. Through Mexico | Judicial Watch  "Illustrating the national security threat created by failing to protect the southern border, a Mexican human smuggling operation has helped Iraqis and other Middle Eastern individuals sneak into the United States through the Rio Grande for more than a year.

"Based in Chaparral New Mexico, the lucrative smuggling ring initially sneaked Mexicans and central Americans across the U.S. border but operators took on Middle Eastern customers more than a year ago because they paid thousands more to make it north.

"An alarming Federal Bureau of Investigation report says the Middle Eastern illegal aliens paid the smugglers a fee of $20,000 to come to the U.S.". . .

Is Joe Biden about to get Al Caponed?

 Is Joe Biden about to get Al Caponed? – Bookworm Room

The facts are a little different because Al Capone was nailed for evading taxes, but Biden’s tax returns suggest the possibility of serious corruption.

. . ."In Biden’s case, it appears that he reported all his income to the IRS. The problem, as the Daily Mail discovered, is that the origin of $5.2 million of that income is completely mysterious:

[T]he president’s financial filings reveal that he declared almost $7 million more income on his tax returns than he did on his government transparency reports, an analysis by DailyMail.com of the president’s financial records shows.

Some of that difference can be accounted for with salaries earned by First Lady Jill Biden and other sums not required on his reports – but still leaves $5.2 million earned by Joe’s company and not listed on his transparency reports.

The ‘missing millions’ – combined with emails on Hunter’s abandoned laptop suggesting Joe would have a 10% share in Hunter’s blockbuster deal with the Chinese – raise a troubling question: did Joe Biden receive money from the foreign venture?

"It’s very clear that Biden was rolling in dough—so much so that, as some of the documents show, he was able to pay Hunter’s legal bills in 2018, which totaled $737,130.61. Of that gigantic sum, $28,000 was attributed to “restructuring” Hunter’s joint venture with the Bank of China, owned by the Chinese government (aka the Chinese Communist Party).". . .

Michelle Malkin: Sabotaging America’s military from within

In a sane and self-respecting sovereign nation, wise, brave, God-fearing, independent-minded warriors like USAFA cadet Nathan Suess, Navy Lt. Col. Bill Moseley and military defense lawyer R. Davis Younts would be celebrated and promoted, not spurned. But in woke, broke America, . . .

 Michelle Malkin   "A year ago this month, a comparison of military recruitment ads from China, Russia and the U.S. went viral on social media. Our foreign competitors wooed their potential enlistees with muscular appeals to national pride and protection of the traditional nuclear family. A U.S. Army promotional campaign, by contrast, featured a pastel-hued cartoon depiction of a female soldier named “Emma” who marched in a gay pride parade with her two mothers and became a soldier to “shatter some stereotypes.”

"Wokeness is a terminal cancer in our armed forces, eroding the foundational bones of its honor-bound institutions and ravaging the core values of generations of America’s frontline fighters. Integrity, honor, personal courage, excellence and commitment to truth have been subjugated to the progressive false gods of diversity, equity and inclusion. Who needs outside threats to our troops when the most lethal saboteurs are embedded inside the bowels of our own Pentagon and service academies?

" 'Diversity,” of course, is exclusively defined by selective skin color and politically correct pronouns. “Equity” is a farce if you are white, male, Christian and patriotic. “Inclusion” is a grand illusion. Nowhere are these toxic realities more clearly illustrated than in the American military bureaucracy’s vindictive witch hunt against our best and brightest soldiers, Marines, sailors, airmen and Coasties who have resisted the COVID-19 jab.

" 'I’m frustrated,” Air Force Academy cadet Nathan Suess told me on Monday in Colorado Springs, Colorado, as he braced for punishment and retaliation during graduation week. The 21-year-old civil engineering major is one of four seniors who objected to the COVID-19 vaccine because of their deeply-held religious beliefs — as well as on irrefutable scientific and legal grounds.". . .

'You are doing nothing': O'Rourke accosts Abbott at press conference on shooting

"The morons that are praising Beto for disrupting the meeting are the same ones that said parents that disrupt school board meetings are domestic terrorists." Tex Aggie

 POLITICO  "Texas Democrat Beto O’Rourke confronted Gov. Greg Abbott at a press conference on Wednesday, accusing the governor of inaction on gun violence in the wake of a mass shooting at an elementary school that left 19 children and two teachers dead.

"Abbott, flanked by law enforcement officers and fellow Republican lawmakers, had just wrapped up giving an update on the Uvalde, Texas, shooting Wednesday afternoon — in which he said mental health was the root cause of the deadly event — when O’Rourke approached the stage.

“ 'Governor Abbott, I have to say something,” O’Rourke, who is running for the Democratic nomination to challenge Abbott in November’s midterm elections, said. “The time to stop the next shooting is right now and you are doing nothing.”

"The totality of O’Rourke’s remarks were difficult to hear as he was shouted down by those on stage who were speaking into microphones. Among those attempting to speak over O’Rourke was Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, a Republican, who told the former El Paso congressman to “sit down” and that he was “an embarrassment.”

Here are the nutcases who believe in 'replacement'

On MSNBC, they’re constantly sneering about “old white men” and celebrating the “browning of America.” A group called Battleground Texas boasts about flipping that deep red state to the Democrats — simply by getting more Hispanics to vote. Blogs are giddily titled, “The Irrelevant South” (“the traditional white South — socially and economically conservative — is no longer relevant in national politics”). MSNBC’s Joy Ann Reid tweets that she is “giddy” watching “all the bitter old white guys” as Ketanji Brown Jackson “makes history.” 

 Ann Coulter  "The “Great Replacement Theory” (GRT) has taken the media by storm! It seems that the white racist who shot up a grocery store full of black people last weekend cited GRT in his 180-page “manifesto.”

"First of all, journalists need to understand that GRT is only a theory taught in advanced law school seminars. It is not something designed for indoctrination of mass audiences of young people.

"So what is GRT? The New York Times describes it thus:

" '[T]he notion that Western elites, sometimes manipulated by Jews, want to ‘replace’ and disempower white Americans.” (You want a conspiracy theory about a secretive cabal of Jews? Check out the Times’ series of articles on “neoconservatives” back in the early 2000s.)

"But then — just as every argument about abortion suddenly becomes an argument about contraception — a few paragraphs later, the crackpot theory jumps from a Jewish cabal replacing whites with blacks … to the idea that Democrats are using immigration “for electoral gains.”

"Wow, that is nuts! Where’d anybody get that idea?

"Oh yeah — from liberals.

"Here’s Democratic consultant Patrick Reddy in 1998:

" 'The 1965 Immigration Reform Act promoted by President Kennedy, drafted by Attorney General Robert Kennedy, and pushed through the Senate by Ted Kennedy has resulted in a wave of immigration from the Third World that should shift the nation in a more liberal direction within a generation. It will go down as the Kennedy family’s greatest gift to the Democratic Party.' ”

" (Well, sure, if you want to totally overlook skirt-chasing and pill-popping.)..."

They're Replacing YOU, Black America (townhall.com)     "Liberals are screwing over African Americans again, sublimely confident that whatever they do, Democrats will never get less than 90% of the black vote.

"In the Buffalo, New York, mass shooting 10 days ago, 18-year-old Payton S. Gendron drove 200 miles to a grocery store jam-packed with the descendants of American slaves and gunned down as many people as he could. But instead of this being an anti-black thing, the media have decided, no, it's an anti-immigrant thing, based on the shooter's belief in the "great replacement theory," which holds that elites are deliberately replacing historic Americans with immigrants." . . .

Children as political cannon fodder

 

'For God’s sake …': Joe Biden and the Texas tragedy - American Thinker  "For God’s sake, Mister President, don’t turn this tragedy into cheap political capital.

"I just watched President Joe Biden take a stab at playing the role of America’s “mourner in chief,” a role his Democratic predecessor, Bill Clinton, managed quite well.  That may, in fact, have been the only thing Clinton did which actually helped the country.  For all his many failings, Clinton knew the importance of helping people cope with tragedy.

"Unfortunately, Joe Biden didn’t crib this page from Bill Clinton’s playbook. He made it partisan fairly quickly, blaming the tragedy on the "gun lobby" and "gun manufacturers."

"Yet he started out well. As a man who’s lost two children, he has earned the right to let America know what the parents of those precious children must be feeling, and in doing so, give us moral guidance as we all come to terms with this most senseless of tragedies.  As a man who has lost a child – and my son’s mother – to two different and senseless tragedies, I deeply appreciate this role as taken by presidents of both parties, men who know how to help those suffering from a loss they can never overcome.

Regarding those errors, if Biden is going to play politics, let’s at least make sure his lies don’t stand unchallenged.

Southern Baptists to Release List of Ministers Accused of Sexual Abuse

 The New York Times (nytimes.com)  "Leaders in the Southern Baptist Convention announced Tuesday that they were preparing to release a secretly maintained list of hundreds of ministers and church workers they say are credibly accused of sexual abuse.

"The existence of the list was revealed Sunday in a bombshell report on the denomination’s handling of sexual abuse over the past two decades. The report, produced by a third-party investigator and totaling almost 300 pages, alleges that the denomination’s top leaders had suppressed reports of sexual abuse, opposed proposals for reform, and denigrated and discouraged abuse victims who approached them for help.

"One of the report’s most shocking revelations was the existence of an internal list of 703 people suspected of abuse, compiled by an employee of the denomination’s executive committee, its national leadership body.

"Survivors of sexual abuse in Southern Baptist churches and seminaries had pressed the denomination for years to compile and publicize a list of known offenders. Leaders insisted that because of its decentralized structure they had no ability to take action.". . .

STUDY: When There’s a Slaughter, the Press Loves to Blame Conservatives

 If you needed additional proof of a corrupt media, this should be it. Any time there’s an opportunity to exploit a tragic outburst of violence, journalists jump at the opportunity to blame conservatives and Republicans. But when a killer has a left-wing background or appears to draw inspiration from powerful liberal figures, these same media personalities bury the connections. 

STUDY: When There’s a Slaughter, the Press Loves to Blame Conservatives | Newsbusters  "In avowed racist committed an unspeakable act on May 14, 2022, murdering 10 African Americans at a grocery story in Buffalo, New York. The mainstream media reacted in a sadly predictable way: They took an evil action by a disturbed individual and attempted to link conservatives everywhere to it. 

"According to NBC’s Chuck Todd, “the chickens are coming home to roost” when it comes to white supremacy. The New York Times smeared that congressional Republicans “have stoked the beliefs that led to the killing.” CNN’s Brian Stelter said that, in regards to the killing, “you’re talking about the biggest stars on Fox News.” CBS Mornings on Wednesday connected “many conservative politicians” to the views of the racist alleged gunman. 

"This is something we’ve seen again and again over the decades: An isolated loner or mentally unstable person commits violence and journalists connect it to the broader conservative movement. But when, for instance, a self-described fan of Rachel Maddow attempts to slaughter congressional Republicans at a baseball practice, they downplay connections to the political left. 

"Here are the most blatant attempts by the liberal media to pretend conservatives are responsible for appalling violence AND their efforts to cover up violence by left-wing extremists.

Oklahoma City Bombing (1995)  . . ."The networks joined President Bill Clinton in vilifying the right. Time magazine called conservative talk radio an “an unindicted co-conspirator in the blast.” 

"On the April 25, 1995 Today, then-co-host Bryant Gumbel attributed culpability to Rush Limbaugh, G. Gordon Liddy and Oliver North: “While no one's suggesting that right-wing radio jocks approve of violence, the extent to which their approach fosters violence is being questioned by many observers, including the President of the United States.” . . .

Will the Supreme Court leaker ever face any consequences?

 The Supreme Court or any other Court is supposed to be apolitical.  A court's function is to be as objective as possible in interpreting the Constitution.  Once upon a time, the phrase "I have full faith in the Judiciary" was frequently used because the public did actually feel like that.  Those days are sadly over. . .  

American Thinker   It has been over two weeks since Politico published a draft opinion by Justice Samuel Alito that provides the rationale on why Roe v. Wade (1973), which legalized abortion nationwide, has to be overturned. 

The document, which was leaked to Politico by an unnamed "source," launched a thousand protests all over the country.

Law enforcement was compelled to place barricades before the Supreme Court building in Washington, and U.S. Marshals had to provide around-the-clock security at the homes of Supreme Court justices because of relentless intimidation from the "protesters."

That wasn't all.  "Protestors" vandalized Catholic churches and pregnancy centers.  Hoodlums tossed a Molotov cocktail into the offices of a Wisconsin pro-life group.  The rapidly moving news cycle and the pace at which the Democrats mobilized their hooligans could cause people to forget how it all started.

The starting point was the leak.

The word "unprecedented" is frequently used without much consideration in current times, but this leak truly was unprecedented.  Supreme Court historians, law professionals, and court observers have expressed shock over the leak, saying they cannot recall any such previous instance.

Chief Justice John Roberts called the leak a "betrayal of the confidences of the Court" and vowed that its work will not be affected in any way.  He also said he has directed the marshal of the court to launch an investigation into the source of the leak.

Hunter Biden's laptop is 100% authentic, forensic examination concludes

 Washington Examiner   "EXCLUSIVE — A copy of Hunter Biden's hard drive obtained by the Washington Examiner is indisputably authentic, and there is no evidence of any hacking or file manipulation, according to an examination conducted by a former Secret Service agent who has testified as a cyberforensics expert in over 100 classified, criminal, and civil matters at the state, federal, and international levels.

"The Washington Examiner commissioned Konstantinos "Gus" Dimitrelos to conduct a full forensic examination to determine the drive's authenticity and whether there were any signs of tampering. Using a technique he developed called "digital sandwiching," Dimitrelos cross-referenced thousands of emails, documents, business records, text messages, Apple Notes, photos, geolocation data, travel records, and other information on the drive to conclude that Biden is the only person capable of producing the data.

" 'My analysis revealed there is a 100% certainty that Robert Hunter Biden was the only person responsible for the activity on this hard drive and all of its stored data," Dimitrelos said, noting that his forensic techniques are reproducible and are the same that he frequently uses as an expert when working on criminal and civil cases.

" 'Hunter Biden's MacBook Pro was not hacked, and the data contained on the hard drive is authentic," Dimitrelos added. "Based on the data I examined, there was no manipulation of any photographs, emails, documents, or other user activities.". . .

Seeking an effective argument FOR gun control - December 18, 2012

 Seeking an effective argument FOR gun control (tunnelwall.blogspot.com)

This is a column I posted in Dec 2012 in grief and anger over the Sandy Hook school shooting that killed so many innocent children........The Tunnel Dweller

Seeking an effective argument FOR gun control

Here, two respected writers discuss the case against taking away individual firearms from Americans. Yes, it is true that if guns did not exist everywhere in this nation those little children in Sandy Hook would be living right now and I only wish that were the case. But it is not and there are violent people out there in their thousands and they are armed; willing and lusting to watch innocent people die in bunches by their hands. How, exactly do you gun-control advocates plan to remove those weapons from their blood-thirsty hands?
I will honestly look for a reasoned argument FOR gun control that contains effective means for keeping us safe from those who carry weapons illegally and are willing to do us harm. Cartoons showing crazed, wild-eyed gun owners don't wash.
As yet, I have seen only politically correct, emotional responses to the issue that have no value other than simply making a politician look as if they are doing something. TD
