Notes from the Resistance
These people run for office because they represent themselves as leaders for championing the beliefs of their constituents. That means they’re expected to lead, and if they don’t know how there are plenty willing to help and navigate them through all the specifics and questions and pitfalls in arenas they’ve been fighting in for years. [More]
If they’re too chicken to bring up hot-button issues before they’re elected, what makes us think they’ll champion them afterward?
When McMullin makes accusations about betraying the Constitution, a dispassionate conclusion would be someone who knows how to do that like a pro is projecting his penchant for betrayal on others for obvious reasons. [More]
It really says something about this moron’s arguments when the best rebuttal to them comes from Pee-wee Herman…
On an unrelated note:
Those of you who noticed the site was down all day, I kept getting 504 Gateway Timeout messages– I did all the things I knew how to do on my end, which isn’t much: clearing the cache, restarting, cussing loudly, but ended up calling HostGator tech support who were able to identify that the IP address for the site didn’t match and they did a fix. I don’t know how that happened. That was hours ago and the site is just getting back to where I can access it more often than it times out, so I was able to get in, approve comments and post this promo for my latest AmmoLand article.
Per normal, unless something YUGE happens, I don’t plan on doing updates over the weekend (I will be working on articles behind the scenes and spending a day on the leaves that bury the yard every year around this time). Hopefully, the situation is resolved and any news link tips received Monday won’t be a wasted effort.
Knock on wood.
This is not science—this is propaganda and it’s a gross abuse of public trust by leftist quacks with a naked political agenda. [More]
A fair assessment would conclude they are deliberately committing malpractice.
They presume undermining “the security of a free State” by disarming their countrymen will result in safety, even though they can point to no such outcome after decades of trying. They also just gave Kelly’s political campaign a favorable-by-association media boost that will be seen by millions, but conveniently won’t set off Federal Election Commission in-kind contribution alarms. [More]
Astroturf groups get millions in free publicity to spread their lies, while the establishment media ignores, blocks, or shuts down the truth about the right to keep and bear arms every chance it gets.
At the time of the ruling, attorney Stephen Stamboulieh advised that no appeal would be filed due to time, expense, and the unlikelihood of it succeeding. This could change that. A motion for reconsideration may now be feasible since Biden’s attorney Clark publicly acknowledged the investigation. [More]
With his lawyer publicly acknowledging an investigation, ATF’s “Hunter Biden privacy” claim at this point is demonstrably BS.
And even for men who pride themselves on their ability to handle themselves, fights aren’t like in the movies. You could get killed, crippled, maimed, or otherwise seriously injured. [More]
So is “Real Man” here bragging about his “toxic masculinity” and offering to duke it out with any and all attackers? Leave it to the side that gets triggered over pronouns to declare themselves the arbiters of what a real man is.
It sounds like everything Brady United, Everytown/Moms, and Giffords and the Democrats are demanding here, doesn’t it? “Commonsense gun safety”…? [More]
They already have everything the antis are willing to SAY they want here…
What the Richmond Heights ordinance does is require a violator’s gun to be forfeited. [More]
Forfeiture law trumps preemption. So the city says it can take your gun if you’ve had a few drinks in your own home.
The bottom line is “bump stocks,” which were “legal” at the time, could not have been the “illegally possessed prohibited firearms” referred to in the “Paddock” report. So what weapon/s are they referring to? [More]
Enquiring minds want to know…
Here’s my challenge for the County Council and Sheriff Featheree: You’re enticing people of unknown abilities to handle and transport guns. You’ll no doubt tell them to make sure it’s not loaded. How will you ensure they know how to first safely handle it and then safely do that? [More]
What could ensure more “commonsense gun safety” than enticing novices who don’t know the rules to handle and transport guns they may not know how to clear?
As an aside, there must have been a copyright issue I didn’t know about because I picked a different photo than the stock one they used– those guns don’t look like pieces of rusted and worn-out junk at all.
“Busse was listed as ‘unaffiliated,’ but that is not true… He is an advisor for the Giffords gun control group and has openly advocated the ban on the most popular selling centerfire rifle in America…” [More]
Yeah, put the fox in charge of the henhouse. What could go wrong?
They would know that returning to restrictive gun laws under a corrupt regime would virtually guarantee a return to the tyranny of the past. [More]
Short memories and the siren song of “socialism” mean Brazilians will be repeating the misery of yesterday.
They’re forbidden to have the means of defense. Instead, those who demand they stay this way offer useless advice guaranteed to leave them at the mercy of those who have none: “Give them what they want.” [More]
The question must be asked: “What if what they want is your life?”
Take that to mean you can’t have a permitted gun with you in a private automobile, either. The entire city is being turned into a “patchwork quilt” designed to make it impossible to travel within its limits without violating the law. [More]
By ignoring the Supreme Court’s decision with impunity, this has effectively become not just a real insurrection, but a sanctioned secession.
The order ends a legal effort that started in August of 2021 and grants ATF its wish that the case involving Hunter Biden is dropped. [More]
Of course, we’re disappointed. And of course, nobody’s surprised.
That “cash, electronics and other valuables” were “left behind” suggests that the object of the break-in was to get the guns, making fair the question of who knew Bass had them and how it is that they knew. [More]
It sounds like there’s a lot more to this story than has been revealed, but even if there’s not, the in-your-face hypocrisy alone ought to disqualify this self-serving hypocrite from office. Which means L.A. Democrats will be lining up to vote for her in droves…
The environmental cases are like gun-grabbers. They’re never satisfied with the incremental concessions they gain today but use those as secured objectives from which to launch their next incursions in a relentless march toward their end goals. [More]
Letting someone else control your thermostat in a heat wave makes as much sense as letting someone else control your gun during a life and death threat.
Does anyone see Google “moderating threats of violence” when they come from a regime that’s implementing radical social changes being pushed by the global elites? Does everyone see the way cultural conquerors are doing the censorship job that the government cannot get away with (yet)? And is no one concerned that these alien-minded punishers of “wrong thinking” and gatekeepers of “right thinking” feel confident enough to publicly drop the mask and distance themselves from the “Don’t be evil” pledge they initially found helpful in gaining public trust (and political concessions on “content providing,” with content denial conveniently left unaddressed)? [More]
What’s the opposite of “Don’t be evil”?
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and Defense Distributed have teamed up to sue the State of California over its ban on CNC machines used for producing unserialized firearms and a law letting the State recover attorney fees from plaintiffs and their lawyers. [More]
You get the feeling that the state, with virtually unlimited resources, is forcing the gun groups to expend all of theirs on lawsuit after lawsuit, counting on exhausting and wearing them out until they’ve got nothing left to punch with.
