Cutting Out the Middleman
The Department of Justice and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives announced guilty verdicts for Chandler Britain Bradford, a New Braunfels man who was charged with smuggling thousands of firearms and firearm parts from the United States to Mexico. [More]
I guess they will brook no competition.

FSU helps ex-police officer Stephen Gray appeal conviction for joke about Muhammad [More]
I understand leaving Cleveland, but for the UK…?
And name the fascist neighbor. There should be a day of reckoning.
Hey, which Brit agency can I send Muhammad jokes to? I had to use DuckDuckGo [NSFW] because Google has anti-Christian AI:
Ah… here we go: Crown Prosecution Service.
What Orwell called Thought Police from the Ministry of Love…
UPDATE
Wrong Cleveland… so it’s fair to ask what edicts he enforced and if he’s now “hoist with his own petard.”

Tell Congress: Force ATF To Provide Guidance! All over the country, gun shops have been advising their customers that they’re awaiting guidance from ATF on how to go about transferring an unregistered short barreled firearm or suppressor. [More]
In my case, it’s a waste of time.
Do it if it’s not a waste of yours.

New reporting indicates ATF headquarters has instructed local field offices not to independently interpret the NFA injunction, while DOJ and ATF have allowed the plaintiffs’ requested August 21 deadline for implementation answers to pass without a public response.

Speaking of ‘Commonsense Gun Safety Laws’…
This is what the prohibitionists really mean when they throw out terms like “gun sense” :
The early grabbers actually admitted it from the start until they figured out they needed to reach their goal through incremental lies.

Before we get to the substance of Ms. Mascia’s in-depth reporting, you need to recall something she claimed about her employer, the Trace. [More]

Right. “Authorized Journalists,” “Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists,” “real reporters,” the DSM (Duranty/Streicher Media)…
We’re the Only Ones Special Enough
You know, the “officials” tasked with putting YOU away for claiming your right to keep and bear arms.
Naturally, none of the objections to “ordinary citizens” being armed will be raised. And every day we see how special the elites are.
Like the sidebar says:
About “The Only Ones”
So named from a comment by DEA agent Lee Paige, who told a classroom full of kids he was “the only one” qualified to be armed and then promptly shot himself in the foot, the purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it’s also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank, or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they’re involved in gun-related incidents.

Now We’re Just Haggling Over the Price
It’s the embarrassing charge that raises eyebrows because York is reportedly worth $500 million and the family fortune is believed to hover around $8.5 billion, but he allegedly tried to enlist the services of a prostitute for $140. [More]
Hey, he can afford expensive whores, like the ones he gave half-a-million to for more citizen disarmament.
“It seems insane to me that a citizen can buy something like that,” York said… “I’m not anti-Second Amendment. This is something that is common sense.”
Come and take it, rich kid. I’ve taken on bigger and better-funded bullies than you.
What seems insane to me is people who won’t control themselves demanding to control those of us who do not share in their moral defects.

Florida DSA Candidate Angie Nixon Says Republicans ‘Literally Trying to Kill Us’ [More]
As opposed to what those bent on disarming us are willing to have their enforcers do if we say “No”…
“She tragically lost her favorite cousin to gun violence,” she tell us.
He “was lost to the school-to-prison pipeline,” she admits, without telling us his part in things, the choices he made, or even his name, so we can find out for ourselves.
