Denying law abiding adults their constitutional right to protect themselves and their families is unacceptable, and criminally un-Texan

Despite video evidence of him destroying a Flock camera an Ohio grand jury declined to indict Cody Morelock in a rare legal phenomenon known as Jury Nullification.

They fought for your “freedom” by stripping millions of people of theirs and treating human beings as productive chattel of the state.

Nothing says liberation quite like being told where to work, what you may own, what you may say, and whether you’re permitted to leave.

Is Amazon Suppressing a Book That Criticizes Islam?

Yes, I wrote the book in question, but that’s beside the point. If they can do it to me, they can do it to anyone who doesn’t hold the views that the leftist establishment finds acceptable. With Amazon being almost the only source for books now, and by far the largest, that’s a dangerous development for any society that values the freedom of speech.

It’s an odd thing. My latest book, The Tragedy of Islam: it has an Amazon page, and that page seems to be in full working order. You can find it here.

If, however, you didn't click on that link I just provided, but instead went to Amazon and tried to find the book yourself, if your experience is anything like mine just now, you will see that the book is impossible to find. Search for it every which way, and it does not come up. Is Amazon trying to suppress access to this book? It sure looks as if it is.

34 years ago today, federal agents used the NFA as an excuse to target Randy Weaver. Those agents killed his wife, his son, and his dog with no consequence.

Every year, we remember what happened on August 21, 1992, at Ruby Ridge.

We remember. We fight on.

Islam is a political system - not a religion. I learned this from many Muslim I encountered In London, Iraq & beyond. They mocked me for describing Islam as a religion - used it as proof that I did not know anything about Islam as a young reporter. And they were right.

🇯🇵 A Muslim man tells Japanese people that we should "talk to each other, decide the rules and do it that way".

How about this: we don't talk to you. We Japanese decide the rules and you obey. Period. End of story.

There will be no "debating" or "deciding" with your input. If I go to a Muslim country you will not listen to my opinions and "decide the rules" together with me so why should we do it for Muslims in Japan? We have no reason.

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

A little odd, don’t you think?

As soon as Muslims started immigrating to Japan, its Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples started burning down, just like the churches in Europe.

"Without verifying your identity."

You still have to fill out a 4473, pass a background check, and complete a video call with the FFL.

That is still more restrictive than the process was for over a hundred years, and more restrictive than it should be.

But expecting anti-gun journos to know how to read may be setting the bar too high.

Flock cameras are not for catching criminals. They're for tracking and eventually controlling average citizens.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

[Gun Owners of America @GunOwners]

The U.S. Constitution supersedes ANY law that violates the Constitution.

We need an Attorney General who recognizes that fact & will not continue to fight GOA & other 2A allies in court.

We call on all Senators to urge @DAGToddBlanche not to appeal our victory against the NFA.

Right Wing Councillor Hezumaryu Masahiro received backlash from Liberals after going to the Earthquake struck Kumamoto Prefecture & distributing free Tonjiru because it contains pork which is haram.

In response he doubled down taking this photo in open defiance against Islam

Muslims in Japan occupied a hospital parking garage for hours to perform Islamic rituals and assert dominance over the local population. An ambulance had to turn around and was unable to enter. Deport!

Consideration is being given to regulating social media use by minors in Japan. While the specific intentions behind Prime Minister Takaichi's stance are unclear, Japan should not simply follow the trend of banning social media for minors or mandating age verification—measures currently being adopted around the world.

> "Prime Minister Takaichi instructed us to study how other nations are responding, while prioritizing the determination of the appropriate measures for Japan to take," it was stated.

Show me a single Muslim country where a non Muslim holds a position?

I actually understand why Democrat leaders didn't take our stories seriously when the Times reported them in June but are taking them seriously now.

It was by design.

The line most shared from the piece was the claim that the Times “could not corroborate” my story despite talking to two of my friends.

I gave them the contact information for five friends.

They called the two who I clarified would not know about the abuse but would be able to affirm our relationship timeline, events, etc.

They simply did not call the other three.

I also gave them the names of all my former roommates who remembered him stalking our row house (which was about 5 houses down from his) and waiting for me to return. I gave them screenshots of messages between these roommates and I discussing it.

I gave them the names of other men I dated who might have remembered him following us around the hill and showing up on my stoop after we walked home from dates to confront us. I gave them emails to my landlord urgently ending my lease and moving to an apartment across town and diary entries talking about it - all time marked.

I told them that during pre-marital counseling I had spoken to my ex-fiance about the abuse because I had to explain to him why I reacted with such terror any time he lost his temper. They said oh NO we don't need to bother HIM (or my priest). Besides, I had written about it in my diary in detail, they reassured.

As the weeks dragged on I stopped trying to give them evidence because the amount I had already given them seemed to overwhelm them and I thought it meant they clearly had more than enough to verify my every claim.

My friends might not have known the details of the abuse, but they affirmed that yes, I had told them that he was abusive—long before he ran for Senate.

Besides, they assured, my part in their reporting would be small. I thought my details would only serve to affirm Jenny and the other anonymous woman.

Jenny and I - having never met or spoken - both shared with these reporters terrifyingly similar details of intimate partner violence, coercive control, and cycles of abuse/love bombing. The third unnamed woman in the story did as well.

But tell me again how they “could not corroborate.”

In light of the 250th, and the use of "history and tradition" when looking at 2nd Amendment cases, we've put together some educational pieces about what was happening at the founding of the nation. What were the attitudes of the colonists, what context the Framers were working from, and more. The first episode is up now on Youtube!
