And it’s not the first time I’ve asked.
Y’ever notice Mike Byrd’s never around when you really need him…?

‘Community Standards’ Strike Again
This was waiting for me this morning on Facebook:
Again…? And with the not-so-veiled threat to banish me forever…?
Looks like their AI is going full tilt to enforce GIGO. This is what must be suppressed.
Mustn’t allow anything to cast doubt on the directed narrative… like the truth.
I wonder how long it will be before Google removes it from Blogger… along with everything else I’ve posted. Don’t forget what prompted this new incarnation of WoG.
They evidently find voluntary humanitarian relief by believers in the Constitution goes against everything they stand for.
In Time of Need…
FEDERAL GUN CONFISCATION: Can President Biden Declare a WAR or EMERGENCY and TAKE YOUR GUNS? [Watch]
Precedent says “no,” but he could try…
How many he could get, whether they’d be dumb enough to attempt it, and what they’d do if met with defiance is another story.
That’s an interesting point about the gun exemption to Roosevelt’s requisitioning mandate based on 2A being an individual right. That’s something to throw back in the faces of antis claiming that recognition is a recent “gun lobby” fraud.

We’re the Only Ones…Oh, Look, a Celebrity!
The inmate was in handcuffs when he was beaten at the Pinckneyville Illinois Correctional Center in April of last year. [More]
It says something about “Authorized Journalism” when a story of compelling public interest is given literally 1/6 the words of the link that appears in the middle of it:

Justice Delayed
When it comes to the federal government and responding to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, it is so commonplace for federal agencies to drag their feet and not provide fully responsive documentation that it is not even newsworthy when those agencies do not comply with the law. Instead, they miss deadlines and redact perfectly responsive and unprivileged information. This runs contrary to the purpose of FOIA, which is to allow citizens access to the activities of their government. [More]

2A Desperation
…the lawyers for the plaintiff, specifically attorney Stephen Stamboulieh, an excellent lawyer — we’ve talked a lot about him before — uh, Stephen has done a great job in a lot of cases including the Antonyuk case, and he wrote a very powerful opposition to this making a whole host of arguments as to why this is no good and, uh, I will put a link to his brief down below his motion to strike… [Watch]
It’s nice to see a “small cadre” member getting bigger.

The Malignancy of Kristol Meth
I came to D.C. to work in the Reagan Administration because (to oversimplify) it was pro-Constitution, pro-U.S. global leadership, pro-military, pro-Israel, pro-democratic capitalism, and pro-American dream. And that’s why I now support the Biden Administration and Democrats. [More]
His journey towards the dark side is complete.

J6 vs. O18
Footage from inside the Cannon Office Building shows a large group chanting “Ceasefire Now” and calling for Congress to demand the fighting stop in Israel. The group Jewish Voice for Peace said some demonstrators had been arrested inside the U.S. Capitol building. [More]
What, no special committee and seditious conspiracy charges…?
Crucify Him on the Tree of Woe
Prosecutors Appeal Proud Boys’ Prison Sentences Over January 6 Riot [More]
WarOnGuns has obtained exclusive footage of negotiations between the defense and prosecutors.

Blue Arizona
Gallego prioritizes housing, immigration issues at all-Spanish town hall held in Phoenix [More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.
Still no serious takers, though…

Britney’s New Look
Britney Spears sparks more concern as she dances in a cast at trash-filled home in video she reposted after deleting [More]
Britney “thinks” you don’t have the sound judgment to be trusted with a gun.
I actually agree with South Park’s contention that she has been rendered pitiable by lifelong exploiter$. My guess is her handlers thought representing her
Daily Defense Redux
Wherein, among other things, host Mark Walters and I discuss spiders in Venturi tubes, Mark’s teeth, Alec Baldwin, background checks for 3D printers, GOP presidential candidates on 2A, and why I’m a proud “gun criminal.”
[Listen]
His Own Petard
Soros-backed Louisiana district attorney carjacked at gunpoint with his mother [More]
What’s with “Williams said the suspect had high-powered automatic weapons”?
Did any “real reporters” ask him how he knew, or is it just easier for all concerned to help VPC spread its 35-year-old fear porn?
Making It Look Easy
Pierre Poilievre gives a masterclass on how to handle a left-wing journalist. And he eats an apple while he’s doing it. [Watch]
Can you imagine what a moron you’d have to be to vote for Fidelito?
But wait! There’s more!
Pierre Poilievre STANDS UP for legal gun owners*
Gun owners inclined to talk to the media need to pay attention to how he does it and expose smug apparatchiks for what they are.
* And I’d argue for some of us “illegal” ones.
Daily Defense
TODAY on AAR Daily Defense it’s special guest @dcodrea David Codrea. [More]
Go to the AAR website to listen/watch via live streaming and/or find a station near you.
Host Mark Walters hasn’t told me what he wants to talk about, but I can guess. I also want to make sure we announce my two just-published pieces from AmmoLand and Firearms News.
Will Republican Presidential Candidates Ever Give Clear 2A Rights Answers?
Firearms News will be exploring where these contenders stand on the Second Amendment, in both a separate analysis documenting actions, positions, and statements, and via a questionnaire, the subject of this article, designed to produce unequivocal answers. [More]
Finding out who shines us on, who sends us boilerplate, and who is not afraid to lead on the Second Amendment, could be useful to know for the primaries.
New York 3D Printer Control Bill is Tyrannical, Unworkable and Un-American
When the bill predictably fails to reduce New York homicides (because it’s focused on all the wrong things, like not on the criminals), look for new hysterical and pointless demands, like banning out-of-state sales, banning “straw purchases” of printers, banning printer parts, and blaming “red” states with “lax printer laws.” And let’s not forget banning possession of 3D printers by prohibited persons, to be expanded to anyone under a restraining order, on a watchlist, or “red-flagged,” followed by “may issue” permits for anyone else who wants one. [More]
You can’t cite the Founders out of one side of your mouth and then undermine everything they stood for out of the other. Well, you could if you’re a New York Democrat bragging about your foreign values…
A Judgment Call
Prosecutors investigating Rust shooting intend to bring involuntary manslaughter charge against Alec Baldwin before a grand jury [More]
How about tacking on obstruction charges?
Up in Smoke?
The same will be true this time around if voters legalize marijuana for recreational use. If you use marijuana, you lose your gun rights regardless of state law. [More]
No, you’ll lose recognition of your rights.
Don’t use a credit card and lie on the 4473, and don’t be/do/talk stupid, and chances are you won’t get caught.
New and Improved
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has unveiled a redesign of its website, saf.org, which significantly increases functionality and vastly improves the user experience. [More]
Looks good…
