Countdown to the “Gender Affirmation” National Apology

Countdown to the “Gender Affirmation” National Apology

The road to Hell, as the saying goes, is paved with good intentions. And it’s paid for and laid out and maintained by ‘kind’ and ‘well-meaning’ busybodies who think it’s their state-given right to pry and interfere and impose their own, bigoted version of morality on everyone else.

Yet Another Reason Not to Trust Police with an Arms Register

They have also pushed for an arms register  in the mistaken belief that criminals will start registering their firearms. They already maintain an arms register for prohibited firearms, pistols and collectors, yet it seems

Facebook Gets Zucked in Court

Sometimes, you just gotta quit while you’re ahead. To add another well-worn platitude: a leopard never changes its spots.

New, or renewed, firearms-license applicant’s now have a compulsory requirement to name their ‘health practitioner.’ Their practitioners are
