Book on Roman Republic Has Insights for Today’s Freedom Advocates

RomanRepublic

I believe Dr. Faria’s work is essential for dedicated Second Amendment advocates, and although not specifically focused on the right to keep and bear arms, ancient Rome provided the bedrock on which the foundations for our own Republic were set. [More]

We need to understand where we came from to better determine where we are and where we could be headed.

Déjà vu All Over Again

THIRTEEN CHARGED AS FEDS CRACK INTERNATIONAL GUN SMUGGLING RING EXPLOITING THE U.S. AND CANADA BORDER… Straw-Purchased Firearms Sourced from New Hampshire Gun Dealers Were Recovered at Canadian Crime Scenes [More]

This reminds me of something. But what…?

I wonder how many CIs they had embedded in the Akwesasne ring, and if guns could have been intercepted before “walking” across the border– or it being Canada, would it be “gunsledding”?

Now, in Virginia, two police officers have been suspended and may be terminated. Why? These officers objected to a ‘trans-identifying male’ in the women’s locker room. [More]

Someone wanna tell this dolt that “woman” is not a “pronoun”?

Collateral Damage

The governor’s acknowledgment that the law covers common hunting models will likely be cited in Second Amendment challenges. If the law is not amended, she could prove the main witness against her own signed legislation. [More]

Yeah, I know… any chair in a bar fight.

Thing is, 2A isn’t about hunting and “common use” will come back to bite us.

So will special exemptions for Fudds.

Above the Law

In short, prosecutors often decide who will go to prison for a long period of time, regardless of the will of the voters. It gets even a little stranger. Though many states initially stripped judges of any discretion under habitual offender laws, the courts pushed back. For example, a case in California (People v. Romero) ended up with the California Supreme Court declaring that trial courts have discretion to dismiss or strike prior strike allegations in Three Strikes cases, either on the court’s own motion or on motion of the prosecutor (even over the prosecutor’s objection). Stated more bluntly, trial judges can creatively thumb their noses at three-strike law requirements. [More]

What could go wrong?

There’s only one law that should matter with violent habitual offenders.

A Fly in the Ointment?

If there is a message in my filing both a Writ of Mandamus and Writ of Prohibition with the Supreme Court of Ohio yesterday, to prevent Secretary of State Frank LaRose from certifying the candidacy of his endorsed candidate until he’s verified his parents’ immigration status at his birth on August 9, 1985, it is that Republican so-called “leaders” have reached the limits of our tolerance… LaRose must submit a DHS Form G-845 to verify the citizenship status of every candidate on the ballot. 8 U.S.C. 1373 authorizes him to ask. [More]

Ramaswamy’s not a legal citizen? Plus Eric Brewer has concerns with the legal citizenship status of Musk, Rubio, Patel, and Oz…

Now that he says he’s filed, will an investigation be forced? There’s nothing in the news about this, just his Facebook post. It’s probably too early to fantasize about Casey Putsch being declared winner of the primary by Ramaswamy’s disqualification…

And as much as I’d like to see if there’s any there there, I gotta ask: Is he onto something big that’s being suppressed by the powers that be, or just an obsessed gadfly with issues?

An Incomplete Story

A shooting at a mosque complex in California killed three people Monday, with two suspected teenage gunmen later found dead in a car from self-inflicted gunshot wounds, police said. Police said emergency response teams found the victims outside the sprawling Islamic Center of San Diego, before later finding the shooters, aged 19 and 17, also dead. [More]

“Constitutionality”? As in “securing the Blessings of Liberty“…?

Slipping Through the Krakens

There’s a “ton of evidence” the 2020 presidential election was rigged against President Donald Trump, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Sunday, though he soon conceded he couldn’t provide a “definitive answer” if that was actually true or when federal officials would prove it. [More]

Release the… oh, never mind.
