When I hear people talking about US Police Brutality.
If you think you are living in Gestapo times because you get pulled over and asked for your Drivers License, you are a moron. Add double measure if you make it racial.
I saw shit like this happen plenty and escaped myself a couple of times.
The Lawdog Files book is out in Kindle!
I am not gonna even bother with a review. I have been reading his blog for years and he is just too damned good.
It is now on Amazon in Kindle version, go buy. Those of us who prefer Dead Tree versions will have to wait some more, but I was told it is coming.
Brits shocked about Americans not using Egg Cups
The abominable revelation made Metro UK and has the Cousins up in a tizzy. Apparently this is an incredible breach of culinary etiquette from us Colonials and they will probably seek the UN to impose sanctions on us for that and for making sweet tea out of bags, in fact for making any tea from bags.
Bu do we really give a damn about proper serving rules from people who sell deep-fried fish and fries wrapped in newspapers?

Fake News on a Fake Gun Control March
The formerly famous (and now subsidiary of Everytown) Brady Campaign posted a link in his Facebook page.
Now, let us not forget that this march was to be in massive response to Dana Loesch’s “fist of justice” video and how the poor saps felt threatened by it. The link leads to an article about the women’s march now expanding the reasons why they were marching (apparently nobody was giving the Loesch video the “OMG” factor they wanted.
And of course they need a compelling photo to show the depth of the commitment the women had for this march. Unfortunately the photo used to “give context” is actually from a march in Minneapolis about a month before.
Of course they are not saying that the photo is from the Women’s March, they are not saying anything. They are just assuming (quite correctly in many cases) that you will make the association of that crowd being attached with this event and thus butching up the numbers in the heads of people.
This is like the photo of pretty people who comes with the frames you buy at stores. The Opposition just decided that the fake images make for better display than the truth and used them accordingly.
One photo summarizing the failure of the #NRA2DOJ March
The faces are just perfect. “Who was the moron who decided to have a 17 mile march in the middle of the effing D.C. summer?”
Maybe that is the reason that they went from the announced ‘thousands” of protesters to hundreds of them (some say barely over 2) who were encased in a dark t-shirt with the sun beating down on them. Even the armed bodyguards seen in the photo do not look happy.
True grassroots activism is hard. Keeping it alive is harder. Keeping true grassroots activism alive for decades? Welcome to the Gun Culture.
