Uncommon Sense

shown by a Brit, of all people:

Lady Victoria Hervey has insisted she feels ‘safer’ when carrying a gun in ‘dangerous LA’ – and has suggested a ban on firearms would lead to a ‘genocide’ in the US.

The 45-year-old socialite and former ‘It Girl’, who is the daughter of the 6th Marquess of Bristol, and has in the past shared controversial opinions, told The Mirror that while she supports stricter regulations, she doesn’t agree with at total ban.

Now the reason this titled British tart has these oh-so-horrid beliefs is that she doesn’t live in Britishland, but in Los Angeles — hence her refreshing (and no doubt well-founded) opinion.  And she’s right, of course, especially in Los Angeles, which in no way resembles even London or Manchester when it comes to serious violent crime.   But when it comes to “stricter gun regulations”, it’s hard to see how anywhere could be stricter than L.A. in that regard, so she’s of course wrong about that.

Frankly though, I’m amazed that Our Vicky can even pick up a gun, given that she’s long been the World’s Skinniest Non-Anorexic Woman Not Living In The Third World:

 

Things I’d Like to See #3,453

Whenever I see a headline like this:

Thousands of gun control advocates are expected to rally Saturday in Washington, DC, and across the country in a nationwide “March for Our Lives” protest following the deadly mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

…what I would really like to see is a counter-protest of, say, ten million gun owners descending on Washington D.C. — no funny stuff, just an immense crowd of people holding hand-painted signs saying non-contentious things like “We Love Our Second Amendment”, “First And Second Amendments — Our Two Pillars of Freedom” and “Over 1 Million Violent Crimes Prevented Each Year By Law-Abiding Gun Owners”, etc., so that for once, the world can see the depth of our support for the Second Amendment.

But we don’t do that, do we?  And by our silence, we give the stage to the gun-confiscators and -controllers, and the world says, “See?  See?  Even Americans want gun control!” when in fact we don’t.

And when some crackpot like Michael Moore thunders:

“Repeal the Second Amendment. Repeal the Second Amendment.”

…we just chuckle, because we know that such a thing would require a two thirds majority in both House and Senate, and a three-quarter majority of all the states — ergo, it ain’t gonna happen.

In the near future.  But further down the road?  You sure about that?

News Roundup

Brought to you by:

So let’s get cooking with some news:


which is quite true, if by “historically” you mean 1935.


and as a last resort, bagpipes, although the ASPCA might have had a problem with that.


just another part of his master plan to win an election in Texas.  And talking of Beta-politics:


just a pair of Commies chatting cozily over a nice hot cup of blood.  Corollary:

Canadian Firearm Retailers Sell Out of Handguns
every time.  You’d think they’d learn, but Commies never do.


like any Commie believes in fairness, and the rule of law.  How about this one, for example:


because democracy is just a guideline, really.


and no, her name was not Betty-Sue Johnson.

And speaking of yet more domestic terrorists:


do we really need to even ask this question?


LOL.  This is going to end well.


nah, he should ruin the lying bitch, as an object lesson to other lying bitches who might be tempted to follow her example.

And in more INSIGNIFICA:

So much for the news…

Welcome Back, Jack

Am I the only one who found this little turnabout amusing?

Appetite for money, of course.  When Depp was first involved in that “#BelieveAllWomen” court case, Disney dropped him like a hot rock.

I wrote this at the time:

Considering that Depp’s performance was the only thing that made the whole thing at all watchable, this should be its death knell, and not a moment too soon.  I watched the first two Pirates movies with huge enjoyment, lost interest after that.  I doubt that anything Disney does would make me watch another one, unless the new lead character was portrayed by Carol Vorderman, in the nude.

Now that Depp’s been cleared of all the accusations made by his loony ex-houri, no doubt the foul moneygrubbers at Woke Disney will be all too willing to welcome him back into the fold, to play Captain Jack Sparrow for the umpteenth time so they can refill their vault at Gringotts Bank.

And I hope that he tells them to go and fuck themselves.
