I am going to make this a recurring feature while I am on the research thing. If anything, it shows an evolution on the way things were written.

According to the US Census Bureau, there is an estimated 325,719,178 people in the US (2017.) Less than one-third means it is south of 108,573,059 or just let’s round it to 100 million for brevity’s sake.

So NoRA admits that there are at least 100 million gun owners in the US. The armies of China, Russia and the US only make for 9 million on a good day.

And somehow Alyssa Milano, Shannon Watts, Michael Bloomberg and the rest of the Gun Control Fantasy Tour think it will be easy just with a law to make all guns disappear or make us felons.

Keep dreaming.

Not a joke.

“The violence they experienced is something many families in our community are still working through,” the message said in part. “Triggers – like loud bangs from fireworks – can bring back a flood of memories from an act of violence we all would like to forget.”
The city is holding a pre-planned fireworks event starting at 9 p.m. inside Mullins Park and has set up a text alert system that will send messages to those with PTSD and other noise related disorders alerting them in advance of the display’s start so they can prepare

Coral Springs to Residents: Don’t Use Personal Fireworks Out of Respect For Parkland Shooting Survivors

I have seen some amazingly conceited bullshit before, but this one is making the top 10 easy.  A pack of Black Cats is gonna send somebody into a psychotic event, but literally pounds of black powder exploding very fucking loudly in the air are not going to create mental issues.

Virtue Signaling bullshit.

Kudos to the author.

You may begin to cringe your butt.

STAMFORD — A Bridgeport man who was assaulted by three juveniles while he was at work in Norwalk will have to spend 18 months in jail for stabbing one of the attackers.
“I was defending myself,” Jeffrey Sumpter, 21, told Judge John Blawie on Monday morning at the Stamford courthouse when he was sentenced for stabbing one of the males in the leg last October. Blawie told Sumpter that he understood and believed his version of events, but he said he had to follow the letter of the law.

Sumpter, dressed in a white prison jumpsuit with short sleeves, did not reply. His public defender Howard Ehring said unlike a state like Florida, which has a law allowing its residents to stand their ground, Connecticut law requires Sumpter to retreat from the beating he was given at the Dunkin’ Donuts where he worked.

Victim of Norwalk assault gets 18 months for not retreating

Remember what I always say: You do not determine if you retreated enough. That is made by people who are gonna show up after the fact or a prosecutor from the comfort of his office a couple or more days later.

Duty to Retreat is the most imbecilic idea that can be attached to a defensive situation.
