Those of us who support the rights of Americans to keep and bear arms, as confirmed in the Second Amendment, are used to seeing some pretty dumb takes from the other side. One of the dumbest in recent history, the 1994 "assault weapons" ban, even put bayonet lugs on the list of proscribed features, because, presumably, of all the massed bayonet attacks carried out by criminal gangs. But now and then, something comes along that sets a new low for even the dumbest of dumb takes; this time, it's a video from the Associated Press, clutching pearls about how black-powder guns, like those used in the Revolutionary War,

Gavin Newsom has promised the opposite, announcing a program to provide “free” diapers to newborns. This is meant to appear as a generous and pro-baby plan, and Newsom was even applauded by some pro-life and pro-family writers and activists.
