I love happy endings.

Once on scene, deputies found a 54-year old male deceased from an apparent gunshot wound to the head. The residents inside the home told investigators the man kicked in the front door, and once inside, he armed himself with a knife, yelling he was there to harm his children’s mother. He went room to room searching and threatening the occupants who had retreated to a bedroom in the rear of the house. He then confronted a woman in the rear bedroom, who, fearing for her life, shot the man twice.

At the time of the incident, the suspect had an active domestic violence injunction filed on him. He was also reportedly on his way to anger management treatment when the incident took place.

Intruder shot, killed after kicking in door, charging occupant with a knife

So many lessons from this incident.

First: A gun levelled the paying field, in fact, it gave the much needed tactical superiority to win. Nothing calms an aggressor faster than a bullet lodged inside his brain.

Second: Injunctions, restraining orders and the such are really only valid to have on record you are afraid for your life because of the potential of violence from somebody. They do not stop a determined attacker. But that does not mean you should not get one if you need to. 

Third: Surveillance cameras also do not stop a violent crime, but they can give advanced warning to you and evidence to the police of what happened. This guy just did not push a weak door open, but kicked the crap out of a solidly installed door over and over till it finally gave up. This was not a case of “oops! I did not mean to.” but of an enraged savage lusting for blood. I doubt the woman of the house will have to fear from an overzealous prosecutor since the evidence is plainly in her favor.

Barely parody

I figured out Dr. Fauci long ago.

He is an 80 year old man who for 36 years has worked for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

He’s a Silent Generation career bureaucrat at an agency that you have never heard of before.

All of a sudden he’s in the spotlight, on TV, giving briefings to the president, Leftists are making action figures and saint candles of him.

He’s getting awards, recognition, and a shit load of money.

Why on God’s green earth, after a lifetime of bureaucrat anonymity would he give that up?

He’s going to feed the fear to keep him relevant until he dies or something else knocks him off the stage.

No different that why Pelosi or Biden or Bill Nelson or any of these other octogenarian swamp creatures refuses to go the fuck away.

This, a hundred time this. No More Chest Thumping

Via ‘The View From North Central Idaho.

A major point of disagreement among Second Amendment supporters was how to approach the problem. One group claimed anything but full and complete recognition of Second Amendment rights was futile and counter-productive. The argument was: any lesser legislation, moving incrementally toward full Second Amendment rights, would only legitimize infringements on those rights. They were/are the “All or Nothing” group. Some called/call themselves “principled”.

The other group of Second Amendment supporters argued Second Amendment rights could be restored bit by bit. Pass legislation first, for a permit system. Keep reforming and improving the permit system. Reduce requirements, reduce fees, reduce “gun free zones”.  Keep on incrementally improving the law, until Second Amendment rights were fully restored. They were/are the “Incrementalists”.  In the middle 1990’s it was not clear if either approach would be effective.

Twenty years later, it was clear. Incrementalism worked.

GUN WATCH: Restoring Second Amendment Rights: Incrementalism vs All or Nothing

Americans do not enjoy having ANYTHING shoved down their throats and that includes restoration of the Bill of Rights. They will oppose you on principle and vote solidly against your position.

If you are reasonable, patient and take the time to engage with people, you will have them on your side in no time. But tell them “Fuck you, mu rights and shove it up your communist ass!”  and they will tune out and go with the opposite view even if it will eventually go against them.

I firmly believe that the worst political tactic related to Gun Rights in Florida was the Open Carry Fishing Trips tactically decked out in rifles, pistols and chest carriers like you were going to invade Tampa Bay.  It was not inviting to the folks, it was threatening and gave fodder to the opposition.

I guess in this case Covid helped gun rights in Florida: people stayed home rather than go do stupid gun parades at the local fishing pier. We did get two Pro Gun bill passed this year, right?

Democrat governors come up with the most a**-backwards, anti-science, unbelievably f**king stupid reopening policy possible

Here are some headlines.

From New York:

Yankee Stadium, Citi Field To Seat Fans In Vaccinated And Unvaccinated Sections, Offer Shots And Free Tickets

From Washington State:

Washington to allow ‘vaccinated sections,’ increasing capacity at sports arenas and other venues

In California, a premium ‘vaccinated section’ is available for fully vaccinated people at all Golden State Warriors games.

This is the dumbest, most anti-science, counter-productive idea in the history of vaccination initiatives.

This, more than anything else, makes it crystal clear that these measures have nothing to do with public health and everything to do with forcing compliance with government mandates.

The studies out of Isreal show that vaccinated people have about a 1 in a million chance of getting or transmitting the virus after the vaccine.

The whole principle of mass vaccination and herd immunity is that the vaccine keeps a virus from spreading because a person who has the virus has a low chance of coming in contact with other susceptible people because the majority of people around them are vaccinated.

The vaccine acts as a firebreak between the infected.

Creating vaccinated and un-vaccinated sections puts all the susceptible people together and moves the human firebreaks to another section of the stadium.

No wonder California burns down every year, they don’t know how firebreaks work.

This is truly the dumbest fucking policy imaginable.

These governors are the worst, stupidest, most awful fucking state managers possible.
