March 9, 2010 6:00PM More fairy dust, Pete. But what inquiring minds really want to know is: Did they ever call it off, or just keep going until they ran out of kids?
March 9, 2010 5:45PM I strongly suspect he's a gangbanger. Goblins carrying illegally will often go with "Mexican Carry", i.e.- tucking the gun in their waistband sans holster. That way, if they are about to be stopped and searched, they can toss the gun and there's no incriminating holster on their belt. This tells us something about the mental level of these 'bangers, since a clip-on inside-waistband-holster can be bought for ten bucks. It'll guard the trigger, but can be tossed with the gun. Oh, well. At least we don't have to worry about this one breeding. Hey, the Brady Conspiracy to Protect Violent Criminals is really going to be conflicted over this one: Do they jump for joy because they can add another "child" to their list of shooting victims, or cry because one their own got hurt?

This brought to you by Here's a better idea: Instead of yet another expensive bureaucractic attempt to stifle freedom, cut the budget for welfare programs that attract the useless (and you can just keep the borders open for those who want to work).
Meanwhile, on the House side,
Hag of the House Pelosi (she's really showing the wear) has come up with the peculiar notion that us little serfs shouldn't know the Masters' plans for us until it's too late. She says, regarding health care "reform": See? It's controversial, and we shouldn't have controversy keeping the bill from passing. Just let us inflict on you, and then you can find out how bad it is. Don't fight it; just bend over.
March 9, 2010 12:30PM I haven't provided a link to the original screed because I wouldn't want to give this sicko the satisfaction of driving traffic to him. A web search on the title will get you there. I left a comment on the piece, but decided this called for an email. I just sent this:
March 9, 2010 11:30AM If you must sell crack, don't use it. Two weeks it took him to realize... I wonder what finally clued him in?

I was about to get outraged when I saw that title. But I wisely read the article. And it's almost at the end when you discover that Delay didn't say that. Basically, he was being reasonable, but Crowley wanted to demonize him.
March 8, 2010 12:20PM You remember this dork, don't you? Well, Vern, there's a few problems with your take on this. For one thing, the guns-locked-in cars bill hasn't even been signed into law yet. For another... Well, the bill would only allow a gun to be locked in a car. Oh, yeah, and attempted murder is already illegal. So what exactly does this shooting have to do with the bill you opposed? Clearly, this guy had the gun anyway. I see this guy was at a strip mall. It's questionable whether his employer could even ban firearms in cars in a common usage parking lot. Did the property owner ban them (which the bill in question wouldn't stop)? Vern's still a clueless dork.
March 8, 2010 8:45AM Timeliness still escapes our boy, as well. Today's spam is a forward of a joke from January
March 7, 2010 5:10PM While the pro-liberty faction, wants to avoid civil war – a great many of us are military veterans and understand how ugly it would get – this... person tells us what he wants – to kill everyone who doesn't agree with him. "Cleansing", he calls it. Now where have we heard that before? Of course, as other commenters noted, we already have guns. We have already trained. Again, many of us are verterans. What Exordium has is a steep learning curve. Civil war is nothing any sane person wants, if only because you never know what will replace the old order. Anyone who has studied the American Civil War and its aftermath knows that America became a very different place in many ways. And that was with the Constitution still, more or less, in force. And that is why people like Mike Vanderboegh emphasize "No Fort Sumters", and simply want to restore the Constitution. You know, the one that Leftist Speaker of the House Pelosi doesn't take seriously
March 7, 2010 11:20AM More good reading from Mike Vanderboegh. It reinforces a point I tried to make to "my" Representative, Scumbag Paul Hodes a few months ago. But being an arrogant, power-hungry socialist, Hodes didn't take the hint: Now he wants to be a Senator, so he can do even more damage. The health care "reform" bills, as currently written, criminalize personal responsibility. And the unwritten penalties for failing to submit include capital punishment. 56 percent. And that doesn't include the people merely unhappy with the government. It's getting a lot harder to be optimistic about peace and liberty.
March 6, 2010 4:55PM Occasionally, during the cold, snowy New England winters, I think about moving to Florida. Never mind. OK, if her ex wasn't driving her to meet her boyfriend (an amicable divorce, I guess), why was he riding along? No, don't answer; don't want to know. But if he was along anyway, why wasn't he driving, since her license had just been revoked? Would have made it easier for her to mow the lawn. But why in the car? Is she like the guys who have five o'clock shadow ten minutes after shaving? Can we expel Florida from the Union? For once, I was glad an article lacked accompanying photos.
March 5, 2010 4:15PM FairPoint, the main telephone company in New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont (and scattered in small towns around America) is bankrupt. They are bleeding customers at rates as high as 10 percent per month. They just admitted that they've been over-stating revenues (which were dropping like a rock even with the fake boost). More people are talking lawsuits because FairPoint is billing them fraudulently for services never provided, or after the customer disco'd service. One poor woman was almost in tears because her bill one month was over $3000; FairPoint was billing her for a new Caller ID installation every time she got a Caller ID message on her phone. And these idiots are getting freaking bonuses? Where is the rationality in a bankrupt company awarding bonuses? I could understand bonuses for getting the company out of bankruptcy in short order, but these idiots took three months to put together a reorganization plan. Some companies are out of bankruptcy in less time than that.
March 5, 2010 1:45PM Somehow I don't see this as explaining the cops who apparently reloaded twice in the course of shooting the unarmed Bell to death in NY.
March 5, 2010 9:30AM Yesterday, I went on at some length about Howard Wilson, clueless Libertarian running for Congress. Well, here goes again. One might think that by late in the first decade of the 21st century, people would have learned general email protocol. Not Wilson. I started my day by checking email. Logged in on my dial-up connection (no broadband anymore), hit "Check Mail", and went for coffee. Came back and saw email was still downloading. WTF? Some clown was sending me 7MB of something. After 22 minutes, I finally had it: Wilson had sent me a MIME-encoded binary, a Windows Media Video. He called it, "[ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, THE BEST GUN COMMERCIAL EVER!]". Oh, joy. Happy day. A commercial. And yes, he sent it to his usual list, and – as usual – used the "To" field instead of BCC. So I replied ("Reply ALL", in fact, to spread the joy).
Should anyone be interested, Wilson's email address is (since he has no problem sharing mine with the world): stoneanarch@tds.net.
March 4, 2010 3:10PM Cesium rules.
March 4, 2010 1:45PM No. We didn't. But if you say you did, I'll take your word for it. You're certainly evil enough. But study some history, you hypocritical moron. Bobby was the only one on your list that was shot with a handgun. Hypocritical? Yeah. This guy has a permanent armed bodyguard. But we shouldn't have a gun for protection. We're just serfs. Just keep telling yourself that, Daley.

Obama Now Selling Judgeships for Health Care Votes? Nope, no conflict of interest here. Nothing to see. Move along. Meanwhile, over at Sipsey Street Irregulars we see that someone is trying to hijack Mike's "Three Percent" concept. Which is odd, since it's a movement rather than an organization; anyone can be a threeper. I'd have been willing to view the competing website (I won't lower myself to linking to it) more credibly if the site owner hadn't been evasive, inconsistent, and overly defensive in a brief email exchange. Actually, this came up last year. I didn't immediately make the connection because it's been some months and the site layout changed hugely. Back then, quite a few of us were disturbed by linked sites, and what appeared to be an attempt to elect a formal command and control structure for threepers, which is inconsistent with Mike's original idea. Also, today: David Codrea comments on Media picking up SPLC's hateful talking points. The Slanderous Prevaricating Liars' Conspiracy has released their usual pack of lies intended to more completely over-stuff their coffers and promote their socialist agenda. Among other things, the idjits claim a 244% increase in eeeeevil militias. Of course to get that number, they had to count every perceived chapter of single organizations as separate organizations. Oh, and include the John Birch Society, which isn't terribly fond of militias. Go figure. If you've looked at my NH Gun Rights Questionnaire, you may recall House District 2 candidate Howard L. Wilson, Libertarian. He's the guy who got hold of another candidate's answers and forwarded them to me with his "ditto" appended. True, the answers weren't bad, but I really wanted to see Wilson's own thoughts. I was disappointed that a Libertarian did that. But the guy is creeping me out now. Accidentally including me in a private email discussion wasn't too bad; everyone has hit "reply all" at some point. But then he included me in an email list, without asking. Mostly it's forwards of week-old news. Yes, I can hit "delete", but the real problem is that the guy insists on listing every addressee in the "To" field, revealing everyone's email address to everyone else And there are people on his list that I really wouldn't want to associate with. But yesterday was the kicker. Went to the mailbox and found a copy of Reason magazine. I figured my landlord must have subscribed and was going to take it upstairs. But no, it was addressed to me, "COMPLIMENTS OF HOWARD L. WILSON". Now, my father has bought me gift subscriptions, but he knows me and my interests. I've never met Wilson; he doesn't know me, or he would have realized that a Reason subscription isn't all that useful or valuable to me. Then there's the propriety of a candidate sending gifts to a voter who is canvassing candidates. Is he trying to buy my vote? Does he want me to give him a more favorable rating? If so, it backfired on him. I don't vote straight party tickets, but I tend to favor Libertarians on the ballot. Not this time. I truly doubt Mr. Wilson's judgement.
Previous months:
I did.
