I Went to the Animal Fair

Visitors on-board with Saint Louis Zoo’s new security system… The system will detect concealed weapons at the north and south entrances. [More]

Presumably, the ones who aren’t on board aren’t visitors.

Don’t look for assaults to stop, and as for that crack team of highly trained professionals Eidman is bragging about…

Buyer’s Remorse Already?

Trump Shouldn’t Hire Kristi Noem, Or Anyone Else, To Run DHS. He Should Abolish It [More]

I didn’t know she screwed us with the Somalis.

Now comes the Herculean job of trying to rein him in.

I hope some of those inclined to ignore valid critiques by angrily demanding to know if we’d rather have Kamala will take a moment to understand there’s a real difference between supporting Trump and supporting the agenda we elected him to enact.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Term ‘Big Win’ Is

Another Big Win for the Second Amendment…Huge and good news out of the US Senate today and Sen. John Thune has been selected the new Senate Majority Leader. [Watch]

Because NRA ratings

Pay no attention to the men behind the curtain.

Between this and the constant defeatism, I’m just not inclined to link to this guy any more.

Wormtongues Gone Wild

Should this Court decline to grant certiorari to consider the constitutionality of Maryland’s assault weapons ban where (1) that ban is consistent with this Court’s recognition in District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), that jurisdictions may ban “weapons that are most useful in military service—M-16 rifles and the like”; (2) the Fourth Circuit faithfully applied New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1 (2022), to conclude that Maryland’s law is consistent with this Nation’s historical tradition of “regulating those weapons that were invented for offensive purposes and were ultimately proven to pose exceptional dangers to innocent civilians,” Pet. App. 69a; and (3) there is no need to resolve a conflict among the lower courts? [More]

Translation: Tyrannical Maryland Democrats want the Supreme Court to turn a blind eye to the state’s willingness to imprison and/or kill citizens for defying unconstitutional diktats and claiming their birthrights.

Preemptive Strike

Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), together with the Tennessee Firearms Association, today filed a lawsuit in Shelby County, Tennessee against the City of Memphis’ newly adopted gun control ordinances, which were passed by voters in direct opposition to the state’s robust preemption law. [More]

The city has real problems and the idiot Democrats in charge squander resources on diktats they know are illegal.

How is that not actionable malfeasance?

A public servant commits an offense who, with intent to obtain a benefit or to harm another, intentionally or knowingly:
(1) Commits an act relating to the public servant’s office or employment that constitutes an unauthorized exercise of official power;
(2) Commits an act under color of office or employment that exceeds the public servant’s official power;

It’s not enough to have to expend resources to kick these bastards’ crap back at them after months and years of court delays. Start making them personally accountable.

Why not follow up this preemptive strike with carpet bombing?

Oh, wait… the Bill Lee administration

My Mind is Going. I Can Feel It.

Maybe the reason there is no principled solution to AI hallucinations is that we cannot create artificial human minds. [More]

With all that GI, no wonder there’s so much delusional GO.

This oughta put a damper on machines being infallible “fact check” arbiters — or at least provide a counterargument.

Tech lords presuming to be gods hit their own special Dunning-Kruger wall.

And they’re afraid.

Still, by all means, go ahead and replace most “real reporters,” who do nothing but reword and/or just parrot narrative talking points anyway.

Flanagan’s Folly

A 14-year-old boy who was given “many second chances” after being arrested multiple times before is suspected of wreaking havoc in the community with dozens of recent crimes, and Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb said he is fed up. [More]

Fed up enough to name the little reptile and throw his @$$ in a cage until he’s 21, adding on additional time for infractions he’s sure to commit behind bars?

Face it, the retard will never be trustable without a custodian, or even with one.

And speaking of retards:

Raising Voice

Providing videotape copies of House and Senate floor proceedings for a fee to members of the U.S. Congress is an additional role of the Public Services Office. When not used for political or commercial purposes, congressional floor proceedings are made available to senators and congressmen as well as to the public. [More]

I presume we’ve all scene the video of the Hughes Amendment voice vote.

Is anybody out there a high tech sound recording authority?

Stipulating that I’m way outside my wheelhouse, does Congress have a cleaner copy of the audio, and would it be possible using isolation software, AI and whatever to credibly determine the number of voices responding?

They say there are no stupid questions, and I am on a lifelong mission to disprove that.

Has anybody already tried this? If so, when, and have technological capabilitied improved since then?

Nothing Short of a Media Revolution

The Mainstream Media is in the complete free fall we have been expecting for the last decade. With MSNBC and CNN both losing 50% of their viewership (this time last year vs now), we are about to see MAJOR changes in the media landscape worldwide. The propaganda machine is on its last leg. [More]

Mark Walters and I discussed this yesterday on Daily Defense.

In spite of everything the multi-billion dollar DSM threw into creating the Kamala Harris illusion and propagandizing it 24-7, we small furry mammals ate the dinosaurs’ eggs.

#Justabloggers, and YouTubers, and social/alternative media pundits kicked the “real reporters'” @$$e$. A critical mass just isn’t buying the lies anymore, and I don’t see any way they can get that back.

They made a big collective miscalculation and they lost.

A Chink in the Armor Ban

A federal judge has ruled that a constitutional challenge to New York state’s ban on selling bulletproof vests to civilians can move forward. The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge John Sinatra Jr. rejected a motion from state Attorney General Letitia James and other New York officials to dismiss a challenge, ruling the plaintiffs have standing to sue the state over the restrictions. [More]

“Commonsense gun safety law advocate” Letitia not only wants to disarm you, she wants her shock troops to be able to more easily kill you with their “weapons of war.”

A Vote Delayed

If they’re Republican, have your senators seen this?

A Right Deliberately Delayed

As the saying goes, ‘A right delayed is a right denied,’ and the state has denied untold numbers of citizens their right to obtain firearms for almost two weeks. This amounts to a mass deprivation of civil rights under color of law. [More]

Let’s hope one of the functions of the Trump Justice Department will be to go after such violations– like we tried to get phony John Ashcroft to do many years ago.

I’ll have to include that thought in a Firearms News piece I’m working on about a Trump to-do list.
