2A TOUCHDOWN: COULD NFL PLAYER USE 2ND AMENDMENT TO DESTROY MASSACHUSETTS GUN LAWS AND MORE? [Watch]

I don’t have a lot of sympathy for anyone so cavalier about the practice that they forget they have a gun, but the only malicious, predatory intent meriting resistance I see here is coming from the tyrants.

I do think it’s funny to see the NFL trying to tiptoe the line between its anti-gun virtue signaling and being afraid to agitate the “institutional racism” fanatics.

Only in the Minds of Racists Like Ed Pilkington

Fani Willis, the Fulton county district attorney in Georgia who is prosecuting Donald Trump and 18 other allies over efforts to overturn the 2020 election, is facing a flurry of racist online abuse after the former president attacked his opponents using the word “riggers”, a thinly veiled play on the N-word. [More]

Note what this is filed under. They presume to read (more like invent) intent — and convict on that.

Just like “find the votes.”

That’s why I call these tools the DSM.

Ol’ Ed would get along famously with Marshall Brown.

Trump’s Georgia Prosecutor is a Typical Leftist Gun Grabber

“I think we have to have some serious conversations about something that’s not popular. Everybody doesn’t need a gun.” [More]

Why would an arrogant official who thinks citizens don’t “need” a gun think they need any other rights?

The Best of Both Worlds

Colorado governor seeks reversal of federal judge’s decision to block new law banning gun sales to anyone under 21 – Lawyers for Jared Polis last week asked Chief U.S. District Judge Philip Brimmer to postpone his preliminary injunction against the law until the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decides an appeal to the ruling [More]

I wonder if they’d feel mercy was due the other side if the situation were reversed…

Open Lawfare

The lawsuit, brought Tuesday by the nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety and exclusively obtained by NBC News, names multiple defendants, including YouTube and Reddit, online spaces where the shooter was allegedly radicalized, as well as the retailer that sold the shooter’s gun and the manufacturer of his body armor. The suit, which also names the shooter’s parents, was filed in New York Supreme Court. [More]

Leaving no right left unturned… and I wouldn’t exactly call that a Fragrance…

It’s not too much of a leap to anticipate the day when all of us can be sued and even criminally prosecuted for expressing pro-RKBA sentiments, just like those who express election doubt sentiments…

We’re the Only Ones Unmarked Enough

From Denver, another tragic story about cops shooting and killing someone holding a “weapon” that turned out to actually be a harmless object. In this case, an officer with the Denver Police Department (DPD) shot and killed a man armed with a marker. The officer (whose name has not been released) said she believed that 36-year-old Brandon Cole had been holding a knife when she shot him on the evening of August 5. [More]

Unmarked, unnamed, unaccountable…

A Considered Opinion

“We remind the court that the Second Amendment refers to a right ‘of the people’ without mentioning age, and certainly young adults fall within the definition of ‘the people’ ever since they’ve been allowed to vote, and generations before that when they were considered part of the militia, and have been accepted into the military.” [More]

They’re not just “considered.” They’re recognized by law.

Soldier of Distortion

Including that bio snip to presume he knows what he’s talking about on the right to keep and bear arms is what psychologists call “false authority” or “expert fallacy.

And the danger to liberty of blindly following “war heroes” should be self evident.
