Boxer Tactical Daily Digest: The Culture War, Gawker Gets One Right, and More Than Simple Ignorance

The Left’s Phony War on Guns – “We could be putting violent criminals away for gun-related crimes for longer terms and monitoring them more aggressively through an improved parole system. We could do that before they graduate to murder — remember how many of those charged with possession offenses have prior arrests and convictions. But this isn’t on any gun-control agenda. Why? For one thing, it probably would mean locking up a lot of young black men in Chicago rather than hassling a lot of old white guys living out weekend-warrior Rambo fantasies in Tulsa. And for the Democrats, that isn’t an option. The enemy is the enemy, and, guilty or not guilty, he must be punished.” It has nothing to do with safety…we’re in a culture war.

The Democrats Are Boldly Fighting For a Bad, Stupid Bill – “That certainly sounds like a solid principle on which to take a stand—terrorists shouldn’t have AR-15s! Meanwhile, most gun deaths in the United States are not caused by suspected terrorists armed with military-style semi-automatic rifles. The vast majority of gun deaths—suicides as well as homicides—are caused by handguns, and the majority of people firing those guns are not suspected terrorists (which invariably refers, in contemporary discourse, to Muslims, and no other groups or individuals dedicated to political violence). The no-fly list is a civil rights disaster by every conceivable standard.” How awful does a Democrat-sponsored bill have to be for it to be excoriated by none other than Gawker? This bad.

West bowing to radical Islam – “Blaming guns for the Islamist murder of 49 people in the Orlando gay club, is like saying that Zyklon B gas was the cause of the Holocausts and not the Nazis. Gun control is a clear and present issue in the U.S. and there are countless episodes of shootings in the U.S. to justify the removal of all guns (not just automatic weapons), from the streets. However, piggybacking on the gun control debate and not making any mention of the threat of Political Islam and Islamism, is the furthering of a political agenda and not simple ignorance or apathy.” This from a Canadian Marxist Iranian immigrant.

Marshals: Innocent People Placed On ‘Watch List’ To Meet Quota – “‘Innocent passengers are being entered into an international intelligence database as suspicious persons, acting in a suspicious manner on an aircraft … and they did nothing wrong,’ said one federal air marshal. These unknowing passengers who are doing nothing wrong are landing in a secret government document called a Surveillance Detection Report, or SDR. Air marshals told 7NEWS that managers in Las Vegas created and continue to maintain this potentially dangerous quota system.” But as Lindsey Graham says, fixing these problems won’t be a problem.

Comp-Tac Victory Gear, a leading manufacturer of quality concealed carry and competition holsters, has once again expanded their holster fits, to include holsters for a variety of revolver sizes. Comp-Tac’s popular international holster now has fits for the S&W K, L and N frame revolvers.

NPR issues large correction about stay-at-home mom/gun-control activist – “NPR’s embarrassing brush with both sides of the gun debate should provide a bit of ammunition to journalism professors and editors around the country: Warn your people off the use of terms such as ‘regular people’ or ‘average Americans.’ No one knows what those terms mean — and when they come from news outlets lodged in large metropolises, it’s a fair bet that they’re laced with condescension. As a motivated and educated woman who stays at home while performing chores, contract work or activism, yes, Shannon Watts has thousands and thousands of peers across the country. In its correction, NPR very nearly suggests that Watts’ professional and family pursuits somehow place her outside of the pool of ‘regular people.’ Bag that term, and just explain who she is and what she has done.” Pedantic, inside baseball. But really, anything that annoys Shannon Watts is OK by us.
