"Biting the Bullet" (1989)—Peter Brimelow On '80s Gun Control Attempts and '70s "Protests"
• May 15, 2024
• 1,100 Words • 4 Comments • Reply
James Fulford writes: This was written in 1989 by Peter Brimelow while he was still a British subject living in New York, to explain the American gun issue to the readers of the London Times. It covers two violent periods in American history—the nationwide “peace” riots that supported the Viet Cong—and led to Peter himself... Read More
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee Shows the Cowardice of Red State Governments
• May 1, 2023
• 1,700 Words • 8 Comments • Reply
Earlier: Former AR Gov. Asa Cuckinson, Useless On Immigration, Runs Against GOP Base In Odd 2024 Presidential Bid Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee recently outraged conservatives by supporting red flag laws, which empower the government to seize a citizen’s guns if he is deemed a “threat.” Leftist bureaucrats will obviously abuse these laws to crush the...

Uvalde vs. Sandy Hook—Cell Phones, COVID, Sex?
• May 28, 2022
• 3,100 Words • 67 Comments • Reply
Tuesday's horror naturally brought to mind the similar event ten years ago in Newtown, CT when 20-year-old Adam Lanza went on a shooting rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School. He killed twenty of the school's children and six teachers, then shot himself. Before setting out on his rampage he'd shot and killed his mother, with... Read More
Reflections On Richmond: Whites Are Stirring. and the Left Is Afraid
• January 30, 2020
• 1,600 Words • 14 Comments • Reply
The Left/ Main Stream Media know exactly what happened in Richmond on January 20, when tens of thousands of white gun owners assembled in the capital of the Confederacy to defend their Second Amendment rights. And those angry Virginians also intuitively know but have been trained not to say what housebroken Establishment conservatives explicitly understand... Read More

Trump Blows El Paso Response, and Maybe the Election. He Better Hope Congress Fails to Pass His Terrible Proposals
• August 6, 2019
• 1,300 Words • 288 Comments • Reply
President Donald Trump responded to the El Paso and Dayton shootings in the worst way possible. He called for gun control, the death penalty for “hate crimes,” and more tech censorship. It’s a plan Kamala Harris would envy and if implemented, would let the federal government silence Trump voters on social media and take their... Read More

Where Are Muslim Slave Traders When We Need Them?
• March 30, 2018
• 1,200 Words • 176 Comments • Reply
Steven Runciman’s 1951 History of the Crusades is nowadays regarded with some skepticism by serious scholars; but it’s the one I was raised on, and it’s wonderfully cynical. And for cynics, the story of the Children’s Crusade is especially satisfying. This Crusade was led by Stephen of Cloyes, “a shepherd-boy of about twelve years old,”... Read More
Why Bitter Whites “Cling” to Guns–Even MORE Bitter Black People
• March 24, 2018
• 700 Words • 167 Comments • Reply
I got a smile or two out of this March 14th piece in Scientific American, title: Why Are White Men Stockpiling Guns? Subtitle: “Research suggests it’s largely because they’re anxious about their ability to protect their families, insecure about their place in the job market and beset by racial fears.” [By Jeremy Adam Smith,March 14,...

I'm Not Giving Up My Guns---Time to Dump Trump?
• March 2, 2018
• 1,900 Words • 350 Comments • Reply
There is an old joke, known I am sure to most of my listeners, about the Second Coming. That instinct to look busy is common to all bureaucratic organizations, including of course the federal government. It seized President Trump this week. On Wednesday, February 28, he held an hour-long televised session at the White House... Read More

The Parkland School Shooting Reaction
Hysterics Under The Guidance Of Fanatics
• February 25, 2018
• 1,300 Words • 276 Comments • Reply
My impression is that the U.S.A. is a much more hysterical country than it used to be. You can, in your imagination, conjure up the way particular human types will react to some public event. How would a thoughtful, law-abiding, middle-class family man react? How would a vinegary old maid react? How would a ditzy... Read More

But Electing Pro-Gun Presidents Reduce Does Gun Ownership!
• February 17, 2018
• 1,400 Words • 99 Comments • Reply
Another school shooting, another flurry of pointless arm-flapping from the commentariat, every commentator mounting his favorite hobby-horse and galloping off to the races. Most popular: Stricter federal gun control! Couple of problems with that, most notably: It’s not what Americans want. Alex Tabarrok at Marginal Revolution tweeted out a very nifty little video showing the... Read More

America’s “White Gun Culture” Isn’t Killing Blacks—Other Blacks Are

In the U.K. Spectator, American freelance hack Eric Weinberger reviews Another Day In The Death Of America, a book about America’s “gun culture”, written by Gary Younge, a black UK. Guardian writer who was born in the U.K. to Jamaican parents. It’s based on an investigation of 10 deaths that happened in one fairly average... Read More
CDC Study Rips Guts Out of Gun Control
• October 13, 2003
• 800 Words • Leave a Comment
You don't hear so much about gun control any more, largely because, one has to suspect, even the Democrats have tumbled to the truth that it's a big loser at the polls. In 2000 Al Gore lost a good many white male voters because he failed to distance himself from his party's record on gun... Read More
Bush's Gun Control Blunder: The Moral for Conservatives
• May 15, 2003
• 800 Words • Leave a Comment
After building up the image of George W. Bush as a conservative in the2000 presidential campaign and sedulously supporting him during his presidency, what remains today of the American conservative movement was dumbfounded to find that the president they adored has betrayed them. The betrayal was not on amnesty for illegal immigrants or war with... Read More
Bellesiles Resigns, Gun Book Disgraced – But Still In Print

• 800 Words • Leave a Comment
One by one, the superstitions of liberalism are crumbling into the sea like the towers of lost Atlantis. Last month anthropologist Franz Boas, a patron saint of the liberal view of race, bit the deep waters when one of his major studies turned out to be a fraud. So did Margaret Mead, one of Boas's...

The Collapse of Liberal Lies: That Bellesiles Gun Book

• 800 Words • Leave a Comment
One major reason the Soviet Union finally collapsed around its own socks is that the ideological dogmas by which it was governed were eventually exposed as pure and simple lies. If the liberalism that dominates American politics and culture ever collapses, it will be for much the same reason. Just this year, one of the... Read More
He Gun Control Gestapo Gets 9/11 Wrong
• January 7, 2002
• 800 Words • Leave a Comment
It was entirely predictable that the gun Gestapo would try to exploit the national catastrophes of Sept. 11 for its own political ends, and as expected, it is. The latest sophistry is that gun shows—where people come to look at, admire, fantasize about and buy and sell guns and the paraphernalia that go with them—are... Read More
Ashcroft's Second Amendment May Have Large Loophole

A tip of the hat to Attorney General John Ashcroft, who in a letter to the National Rifle Association makes clear that the Second Amendment is back in the Constitution this week. What's in the Constitution and what isn't varies, you know, depending on which gaggle of politicos happens to get hold of the document.... Read More
