No shortage of press saying the Tucson shootings have rekindled interest in gun control, with words like energizes and reawakened. Except that, you know, it’s the same people just getting a brief moment to say the same things they always say. And, you know, the debate has not really been rekindled when you look at […]

It’s out in force, after the Tucson shooting. Sheriff and press blaming AZ’s gun laws. Blaming metal, like it’s 1980 again. Media BS about guns. Blaming the gun culture. Even though pot-smoking commies aren’t usually associated with the gun culture. SPLC says if you look hard enough, obviously a tea partier. Anti-gunners seem to be […]

Crazed right-wing gun man takes hostages . . . wait, what? I eagerly await the press doing some in depth investigative reporting into the rise of eco-terrorists. Also, if you think we need to rid the world of humans, just point the gun at yourself. It’s easier for everyone.

If I understand it correctly, a bunch of media sorts got together to label right wing folks, tea partiers as racist. And other things that I tend to label the narrative. Round up here. Honestly, is it that shocking that this would happen? The narrative has been laughable for years. Bitter notes that right wingers […]

Looks like those charges of racism didn’t take. Now, tea partiers are responsible for an uptick in violence and extreme measures of protesting the government. You know, like showing up.

Yesterday, I noted the Paper of making up the Record going on about Utah and their evil gun laws. And it looks like the other biased Washington paper got the same memo. The Geek is likely right: I think the difference is that this time, post Heller/McDonald, they smell the inevitable “full faith and credit” […]

Mayor Bloomberg: If I had to guess 25 cents, this would be exactly that. Homegrown, or maybe a mentally deranged person, or somebody with a political agenda that doesn’t like the health care bill or something. It could be anything. Well, you were right about the anything.

Everyone told me it wasn’t the Taliban but it was the Talibubba. Looks like a Pakistani has been arrested in relation to the failed car bombing in Times Square. Update: In comments, Nylar notes that the guy used the car show loophole.

Ponderous: An FBI agent who led the investigation of nine Michigan militia members charged with trying to launch war against the federal government couldn’t recall many details of the two-year probe yesterday during questioning by defense lawyers. Even the judge who must decide whether to release the nine until trial was puzzled. “I share the […]

Tam thinks the targets of opportunity are questionable. Meanwhile, a plot to kill police officers (and someone Raymond Kelly to get his booger-hook off the bang-switch) doesn’t fit the narrative. Of course, it’s gun rights activists who are terrorists! And, obviously, we must invoke Columbine. Gawker hangs with a militia. The Daily Show on the […]

Gone from reactionary and hateful to outright sad. See, tea party = NRA = terrorist. I think. Meanwhile, if you want to be critical of Tea Partiers, you could point out some issues instead of equating them with Timothy McVeigh.

Every time Knob Creek has their machine gun shoot, some reporter or indie type shows up and says look at all those racists. Unsurprisingly, same thing this year. I love how ‘white people’ is like some sort of code word. And, of course, it’s all attendees are religious zealots who love Timothy McVeigh.

Independents? Democrats? Black people? No way. We’re told they’re racist, republican shill groups. What you don’t see at tea party rallies. The press tends to find the wookie suiter and focuses on them. Violence against tea partiers.

What the tea partiers are vs. what the left and the press (but I repeat myself) paint them as. A lot more here. This whole tea party thing is almost exactly like two other recent political figures: Sarah Palin and Joe The Plumber. One side propped them up a little bit. The other side set […]

I’ve come out against the knuckleheads tossing bricks and threatening people over the health care vote that get press coverage. But the threats and acts of violence against opponents of the bill have been getting little play. For instance, little coverage of the Republican whose office was shot at and death threats against Palin and […]

A California man (coincidentally a truther) opens fire at the Pentagon. The NYT misses the truther narrative but gets on some gun control right quick: Virginia, which has some of the most lax gun laws in the nation and has been pushing to expand gun rights, has been criticized lately by gun control advocates. The […]

Been noting how the recent rash of nut jobs seem to defy the lefty and media (but I repeat myself) narrative about crazy people doing violence being right wing, tea party extremists. Add another to the list: Media Ignores Bomb Threats at Senator Bunning’s Offices Just in time to get us back on track with […]

Boston Herald on the AL shooter: A family source said Bishop, a mother of four children – the youngest a third-grade boy – was a far-left political extremist who was “obsessed” with President Obama to the point of being off-putting. Phelps: That’s a relief. If she had been a far right political extremist who was […]

The AP a couple of weeks ago: The number of officers killed in the line of duty by gunfire increased 24 percent from 2008, according to preliminary statistics compiled by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, a national nonprofit organization that tracks officer-related deaths. The AP a couple days ago: 124 officers were killed […]
