Notes from the Resistance
BRIEF OF AMICUS CURIAE NATIONAL POLICE ASSOCIATION IN SUPPORT OF PETITIONERS [More]
I see they cited Silveira v. Lockyer, an effort I was proud to have a central hand in promoting despite being undermined by the “Second Amendment establishment.”

A 36-year-old man was shot with his own gun on a New York City subway Thursday as terrified riders took cover, screamed that there were babies onboard and begged for someone to open the train doors so they could get to safety. [More]
And everyone who was terrorized, pleading, and helpless will vote to stay that way.

Justice Jackson ripped for worrying about the First Amendment ‘hamstringing’ government: ‘Literally the point’ [More]
What’s a woman?… 800 rounds a second... Is there anything this woman is not an idiot on?
There’s always the hope [More]
What an asshole.
And in case you think he just means Trump…
And, of course, he’s hardly alone…
Study: “Woke” attitudes linked to anxiety, depression, and a lack of happiness [More]
Don’t feel bad that they can’t stand you. Feel good that they can’t stand themselves.
If you are mentally and physically healthy, taxpayers should not pay you to retire at 65. [More]
Yes, of COURSE it’s a Ponzi scheme, which is another reason the government is so desperate to bring in foreigners to keep it going, and of COURSE it’s better for them if people have something productive and fulfulling to do.
But no taxpayer is paying me to retire. This is what I have had taken out of my paychecks since 1969, when I started earning “reportable” income, and not just what was robbed from me, but it shows what my employers had to cough up as a cost of my employment. That’s money I never saw.
That’s money I earned and money that’s owed me.
Should there be a better way going forward? Absolutely, because it can’t be sustained forever, and when it goes it will be catastrophic.
That’s another reason the elites are building bunkers.
Associate Director in the Office of the Secretary of Defense says, “Why not just have an open border?” “Tear down the wall.” “I think we should repeal the Second Amendment and take the guns all away!” says Jason Beck, who has a classified security clearance and works for the Department of Defense. [More]
Any more questions on why unelected bureaucrats writing the rules is a bad idea?
But Bellows, who was elected in 2022, cited a 2008 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that there is a “strong presumption that the Second Amendment right is exercised individually and belongs to all Americans.”… Bellows also ruled the prosecutors did not present evidence of a historical tradition of disarming felons after the Second Amendment was ratified in 1791.

Bruen terrifies the Deep State Swamp. What other areas of “law” would fail its test?

Recipient of the coveted Boner Award from a grateful townspeople
Under the aliases of “Willie Boner” or “John Wayne,” the married father of two called, emailed and texted six women in his family in 2021 and 2022, telling them to send him pornographic photos and videos of themselves. If they refused, Parker told them he would rape them, their children and their grandchildren, and that he’d hurt their husbands or uncles. [More]
Ol’ Willie’s gonna be feeling “bonerific” in no time!
I don’t care how old he is, how does the judge shave three years off this animal’s sentence?
Yeah, badged psychopaths like this are trusted with guns but you’re not.

A new controversial armed citizen patrol has launched in Hartford. Organizers say the people will be legally carrying as they walk around parts of the city where violence has taken a toll… They were part of Minister Cornell Lewis’ Self-Defense Brigade. [More]
So… how do they vote?
That white broad must be a real piece of work.

Three Gun Bills on the Move [More]
Ah, the Spirit of Aloha!
Now we know who wrote the “Action Plan”…
There’s too much to read and watch, too many places to read and watch it. It’s enough to distract you from the biggest news in journalism right now: In 2024, it’s harder than ever to get a tough story out in the United States of America… The result is a thousand stories you’ll never read, and a shrinking number of publications with the resources and guts to confront power. [More]
As for reasons why, you missed the barn.
So, take the doorstop and let the criminals (freelance and official) rule the night because, as Constable Marco reminds us, “A lot of them that they’re arresting have guns on them. And they’re not toy guns, they’re real guns. They’re loaded.” [More]
Just give them what they want? What if what they want is you?
It would help if he didn’t automatically buy into prohibitionist propaganda, but by doing so he relieves us of the obligation to take him as an impartial and objective observer. [More]
Why is there such a difference in the numbers and rates of violent crimes betweeen two armed cultures? Hint: It ain’t because of “gun control” laws.
“When seconds count, police are minutes away” takes over, and the only rational and effective “Action Plan” is “Stop the Threat.” [More]
If you’re going to listen to bureaucrats on keeping safe from animal attacks, you might as well just put on a crash helmet and roller skates, and strap an Acme Rocket to your back.
And his excuse for going after Fleet Farm is that its retail employees can’t do the impossible and read the hearts and minds of customers, and that it is therefore responsible for not just their criminal actions, but for the subsequent actions of those they deal with. [More]
A commie gun-grabber commits lawfare against a deep pockets victim because he can. Just like the Founders intended, right?
I’ve got out-of-state family visiting, so I’m going to need to focus work entirely on articles, with no blog updates (barring something huge happening) until the middle of next week.
Please hold off on tips and email/social media correspondence, as I won’t be able to get to them and don’t want anyone to waste effort calling my attention to something I just can’t get to.
I should be able to check in a couple times a day to approve comments. Otherwise, the only updates I’m planning here will be to announce new articles.
I would only add, That this Exporting of Felons to the Colonies, may be consider’d as a Trade, as well as in the Light of a Favour. Now all Commerce implies Returns: Justice requires them: There can be no Trade without them. And Rattle-Snakes seem the most suitable Returns for the Human Serpents sent us by our Mother Country. [More]
I’d rather have the snakes.
