Notes from the Resistance
For the love of God, stop fantasizing about a war between US citizens and their military [More]
I agree. Stop fantasizing.
Ensure the deterrent to prevent it from happening is credible:
“[A]rms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe…”
[H/T Herschel]
I will never comply with a magazine limit. [More]
Huh. Some call that attitude “juvenile at best.”
Things sure have changed there.

Editorial in today’s Uvalde Leader-News calls for gun safety measures: “Raise the legal age to purchase all firearms to 21… Remove liability protections for firearms manufacturers… And for God’s sake, restrict high-capacity magazines to law enforcement and the military.” [More]
Because who but the “Only Ones” and the standing army should be able to deploy weapons of war against the people they are tasked with securing the Blessings of Liberty for…?

Murphy: Gun reform talks won’t include assault weapons ban, ‘comprehensive’ background checks [More]
Those will come later after easier obstacles are hurdled without meaningful opposition. The object is to establish a beachhead without expending too many resources from which they can launch future incursions.
You’d think Republicans would know about D-Day.

This week will determine if there’s a compromise to be made on Capitol Hill to attempt to prevent gun violence or if this round of talks will end up in an overflowing trash can of failed attempts. [More]
Translation: This week will determine if there’s a betrayal to be made on Capitol Hill to attempt to impose citizen disarmament…
It’s almost like DSM “real reporters” have an agenda or something…
Californians enacted the law by a statewide referendum with the unambiguous language that the sentence “shall be” imprisonment for at least 25 years and that prosecutors “shall plead and prove all known prior serious or violent felony convictions.” Nonetheless, directly and openly flouting that law, Gascon ordered a blanket policy of refusing to enter the prior convictions into the record. [More]
All that talk about “our democracy” is just that.

WarOnGuns Correspondent Scott Jensen wants some answers from people who don’t dare give them:
Kim Kardashian says she might eat poop ‘every single day’ to look younger [More]
Encouraging her “fans” to swallow the same crap she does seems to be a specialty with her.
That’s the problem with speaking in absolutes.
As you’ll see, the most shocking revelation from the interview comes via CBS’s reporter, who relays Gomez’s claim that some unknown officer threatened her with charges of obstruction of justice if she continued speaking out about the cops’ passivity. That would mean jail time for her, as she’s currently on probation for a prior offense. [More]
In the interests of consistency, if priors can terminate recognition of your Second Amendment rights, why should the First be any different?

Banning assault weapons looks like ‘big action,’ but isn’t ‘big impact’: Oklahoma attorney general [More]
The confiscation phase is where you’ll see the big impact.
Worldwide study: fewer guns mean fewer gun deaths [More]
Funny. Peter Squires says nothing about this.
Aide: Former Macomb County prosecutor used drug forfeiture money for parties, secretary gifts, more [More]
Every so often I come across a story that makes me seriously reconsider my discomfort with bringing back public crucifixions.
He also said the suspect has a prior criminal record. Authorities said he had previously been arrested twice, most recently for battery of a police officer and resisting arrest sometime last year. [More]
And who’s fault is it we can’t rely on that as a credible indicator?
[Via Remarks]
I stand ready to vote on ALL the proposals mentioned by President Biden tonight and encourage the Democratic Leader to bring them forward for votes. [More]
Just let them come to the floor without invoking Senate Rule 26?
[Via Jess]
“…they’re not sure if that person was hit but they did drop their semiautomatic handgun with an extended magazine…” [Watch]
The “real reporter” made sure he got the important part in. The not-so-important stuff, like who the public dangers were, they left unmentioned.
Surveillance and a police presence no longer deter. And they’re ginning up demand that “something must be done,” which translates into more “laws” against you, since talking real solutions puts those who do on the fast track for cancellation.

This will end well. [More]
The BBC changed the testimony of a rape victim after a debate over the pronouns of her transgender attacker, The Times has learnt. The woman referred to her alleged rapist as “him” but insiders said that her words were changed to avoid “misgendering” the abuser in an article on the corporation’s website. [More]
♫ It’s a mixed-up, muddled up, shook up world except for Lola… ♫
We don’t want to microaggress against macroaggressors, now, do we? That might result in retaliation from those who consider the truth condescending and discriminatory. Not to mention more confusion for the African tribesmen…

Following an investigation, the guns were determined to belong to the school’s principal, Geyler Castro, officials said. It was not immediately clear why the administrator brought the weapons to the school. [More]
She doesn’t look like a lefty so I’m wondering what’s going on.
This looks interesting, promising, and worthy.
So, we have two guys who started their career into the gun control lobbying “lobby”, that work tirelessly to create a whole new class of criminals (gun owners) if we don’t follow the laws they help get enacted, and they previously worked hard to get ACTUAL criminals breaks and treat them as victims themselves. [More]
It’s almost like they’re domestic enemies who want to destroy Western civilization or something…
[Via President Non_Fudd]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue” …
