Rancid Butterfield

More on the awful Fox Butterfield, the NYT's top gun-issues "reporter." Apparently, a retarded chimpanzee could report more accurately than Butterfield.

Registration Redux

Turns out that the NYT reporter who wrote the story mentioned below is Fox Butterfield, a notoriously biased anti-gunner. So he probably did make up the quote.

New Mass. Instant Check System Leads to Gun Confiscation

Gun registration leads to gun confiscation. This article from the NYT on Massachusett's new instant background check system is disgusting. A quote:

On Wednesday, for example, moments after a court placed a woman's husband under a restraining order, a notice about the order popped up on a new computer terminal at the police station here. Given that information, the Woburn police went to the man's house and confiscated his guns, all 13 of them.

Later, the reporter quotes a supporter of this police-state gun law as saying he supports it because he "has nothing to hide." Strangely, the supporter with nothing to hide declined to be identified. I wonder if he exists, or the reporter just made up the quote? Probably the latter.

Bush to nominate Brown

Finally, a good judicial nominee, California Justice Janice Brown. Alas, for every one like this, there are 100 wankers like Bill Pryor.
