Strap ’em on, Republicans. Anyone who doesn’t believe this is war is too stupid and cowardly to be free.
I’m not going to be doing a larger write-up– I had hoped to do a poll there, but soon decided that to have a plan and to make it happen can be two very different things, so settled on just enjoying myself. As such, really, I got nothin’, except a couple of pictures I want to share and comment on.
On the way to the Convention Center from where we parked, I couldn’t help but notice a sign prominently placed in front of the State House, and wondered if it was for the “benefit” of visiting NRA members:

I hope having both feet on the corner of the campus wasn’t a problem…

I wouldn’t mind the handful of ignoramuses if they weren’t so obnoxious about it. These people really are loudmouthed pinheads.

I got there the day after but understand they played Lee Greenwood at the main event.

This exhibit caught my eye because of the pistol brace/SBR brouhaha. Anybody know if there were earlier attempts at attachable stocks? I’m thinking Bruen/historical understanding here…

I also attended an ILA politics workshop but found out once it started it was basically about Indiana permitless carry, so there was nothing new for me to cover there. And I only ran into a few people I knew so there’s nothing of substance to report there. (I did find out in a private conversation that one of the sidebar event speakers is in favor of background checks, but if I follow up on that one at all my personal ethics demand I do it in private.)
Anyway, I had a good time and walked away with one impression that actually left me hopeful: All those Americans and all those guns– trying to take them is a bigger task than the grabbers and their enforcers is up to. And the number of 30-somethings I saw leads me to believe that once they reach a certain age, enough Americans screw their heads on right and will be carrying the torch after us older gun owners no longer can.

I’ll be leaving this afternoon for the NRA Annual Meeting in Indianapolis. (Those who caution me not to make public announcements of absences, don’t worry. Elder feral son Uday will be coming over and I’m neither chaining him up nor feeding him.) If you’re going I hope to meet you, assuming you don’t want to punch me out. I’ll be bringing a poll with me that I’ll be doing an article about that should take less than a minute to answer, so I hope I can count on your cooperation.
I’ve got a ton of stuff to do today to get ready, including finishing up an article and maybe drafting a new one if I can get to it. The dandelions here are in full bloom so I also need to take a couple of hours for yard work before the neighbors run me out.
As such, news tips emailed to me that I decide to present here are all going to be linked in this post with no commentary and a mass credit at the bottom. With that in mind, please don’t submit any more from this point on until Monday, and understand that I will not be moderating comments received after I leave until I return.
The following list will be added to as long as I can get to it:

It doesn’t matter that the New Jersey law is now off the books. What can be taken off can be put back on. And it can take years of courtroom wranglings to unf*** things.
I didn’t watch the rest because I don’t care. It’s a dumb idea for a lot of reasons, not the least being as a tyranny enabler.

What they call it won’t mask the fact that it’s an expensive boondoggle for Democrat cities that want to look like they’re “doing something.”
Maybe along with the “rebranding” they need a new spokesman:

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority.
