Gun Control Twist: Saving One Life “Does Not Justify” Right-To-Carry

24th September 2018

Read it.

Gun control advocates often use some version of the phrase “if it saves one life” in order to justify their ineffective proposals. This week, the anti-gun editorial page of the Chicago Sun-Times offered a different take. Fearful that the Right-to-Carry was getting too much good publicity in the wake of an Illinois concealed carry permit holder’s heroic actions, the Sun-Times editorial board felt it necessary to lecture its readers, “One brave rescue of a Cicero cop doesn’t justify concealed guns.”

I am not making this up. I wish I were.

I wonder: what is the chance the Times will survey women on whether they have ever behaved toward men in ways they now regret? Are we supposed to assume that can’t happen?

Get in tune with the zeitgeist! Men Bad, Women Good!

This is a good example of how Narratives get advanced. Christine Ford’s allegation is almost certainly false, but who cares? The Narrative marches on, regardless.

Did the 65 Women Behind Kavanaugh Withdraw Their Support? Misleading Story Rips Through Twitter

18th September 2018

Read it.

Women are running away from their support of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh in droves — at least, that’s what a few misleading tweets that circulated on Monday would have you believe. But in reality, of the 65 women who signed a letter supporting his nomination, none have publicly withdrawn their support. Several, in contrast, have reaffirmed it.

Politico writer Daniel Lippman raised questions when he tweeted that of the 65 women who initially signed a letter in support of Kavanaugh, “only TWO said they still stood by him.” (That number was later updated to five.)

According to his article, however, that number only actually reflected the women who had responded positively to requests for comment.

However, most people attending the conference don’t need bodyguards or a big entourage. They choose to have them, and with that, fly private jets and ride in SUVs.

Indeed, San Francisco International Airport spokesman Doug Yakel told the San Francisco Chronicle that “corporate jet traffic was up 30 percent over normal” during the time of the summit.

And it’s definitely a lot easier than not meeting, posing, and then smiling for a picture with Louis Farrakhan. But thanks for the lecture.
