✅SINE DIE.
— MN Gun Owners Caucus (@mnguncaucus) May 18, 2026
The 2025-2026 legislative biennium is over. Dozens of gun control bills introduced.
Zero passed.
That doesn't happen by accident.
That happens because:
Over the past two years, you, our members and supporters, sent hundreds of thousands of emails to your… pic.twitter.com/CMygqInWS5

Half a Loaf
In today’s ruling, the court affirmed the permanent injunction SAF won at the district court as it relates to carry on private property open to the public (aka the “Vampire rule”). In the same opinion, however, the court upheld the facial constitutionality of New York’s carry ban in parks… [More]
“Constitutionality”? As in “securing the Blessings of Liberty“…?

Go on, prohibitionists: Tell us what we need to defend ourselves.
Remember the good old days, before “progressives” took over?
I’m thinking of starting a side hustle selling lion spray to hiking California Democrats.

Naturally, Kevin O’Grady and Alan Beck are involved.
Sic Semper Tyrannis
DOJ Tells Virginia ‘See You in Court’ After Latest Gun Ban – Virginia defined those guns as “assault firearms.” [More]
It doesn’t strike ruling Democrats that the official seal of the Commonwealth shows armed Virtue standing over a slain corpse, with the motto “Thus always to tyrants,” or that the fallen crown shows what the Founders had in mind by “No Kings”…?

‘Common Use’ Challenge to Denver Semi-Auto Ban Misses Important Point
“The City has banned an arm in common use for lawful purposes by law-abiding citizens. Therefore, the Ordinance violates the Second Amendment.”
That’s not why the ban violates it. [More]
If something needs to be officially designated “popular” by government in order to be “legal,” we may as well start calling each other “Comrade.”
The Brown Bess Loophole
You ought to see the damage unregulated assault weapons from an even earlier time were capable of! And they were all “in common use at the time”!
What can I say but “Associated Press“…?
Keystone Cop-Outs
Democratic Pennsylvania state Rep. Dan Frankel introduced HB 2506 Monday, which would wipe out the state’s firearms preemption law, allowing local governments to enact their own restrictions on how gun owners could carry, transport, purchase or possess firearms. The legislation, introduced alongside HB 2505, also would repeal the state’s version of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, potentially opening gun manufacturers to lawsuits over the actions of criminals. [More]
Well… this is helpful.
Inconstant Heart
The Trump Administration Is a Powerful but Unreliable Ally of Second Amendment Advocates – Even as the Justice Department files lawsuits aimed at vindicating gun rights, it undermines them in other cases. [More]
I’d use a different word than “unreliable”…
I wonder what it would take to fix that…

It’s ‘Gun Rights Leader’-Approved!
A Florida gun owner says he spent two weeks in jail because the government’s background-check machinery treated an old Kentucky misdemeanor as if it were a felony. [More]
NICS… isn’t that the prior restraint infringement hailed by NSSF as a “real solution,” and “applauded” by NRA…?
A Dear Bob Letter
Tate Adamiak’s letter to the new ATF director – Adamiak explains his case better than anyone else could. [More]
Should work.

Back to the Drawing Board
The Supreme Court of Maryland has found Montgomery County does not have the authority under state law to prohibit wear-and-carry permit holders from bringing guns within 100 yards of certain public places… It now heads back to the Montgomery County Circuit Court in Rockville for further proceedings… [More]
Not exactly the “HUGE WIN!” some are calling it…

The Bestest Infringements Ever!
Electronic record-keeping would become the default under another proposed rule, which would allow Form 4473s and Acquisition and Disposition Records to be generated, stored, and maintained electronically. Not only would this make record-keeping more convenient for dealers, but it would also improve firearm tracing for law enforcement since digital records are faster and easier to search than paper files. [More]
What could go wrong? Especially if administrations change…?
I’m wondering why this is listed under “Big Wins for Gun Owners”…
There I go blackpilling again.
Look, I get that there is only so much they can do because “law,” and think I understand incrementalism as well as the next guy, but the way I see “gun influencers” gushing over this and over Cekada makes some apologists for and abettors in infringements.
There are ways to encourage moves to roll back the oppression that don’t require gun owners to end up with sore knees and from a lot of what I’ve seen, Anon has a point.
Charlie’s Idea of Great R&R
“Assistant US attorney Charles Strauss Jr,” Peterson said. “He was actually on site for the raid. He actually orchestrated and coordinated the raid. It wasn’t done with law enforcement. It was done through the prosecution. So, the prosecution actually was the ones who did the raid, orchestrated it, and it was because of the bipartisan Safer Communities Act…the US assistant US attorney, actually told my attorney that Peterson will never traffic firearms again. That was one of his statements.” [More]
His LinkedIn page says he’s still employed…
Where Every Day is Opposite Day
The District of Columbia has been joined by civil rights groups such as the Brady: United Against Gun Violence and the Giffords Law Center in asking a federal court to dismiss the lawsuit. [More]
Might as well let ’em know…

‘A Little Temporary Safety’
Boston gang members, associates facing slew of firearm, drug trafficking charges… “I think it goes without saying that today’s arrests and seizures have made our communities safer.” [More]
If what they did was bad enough to determine they cannot be trusted without a custodian, what difference does what firearms they had make?
Beware of laws that can be used against you and me.

Rope-Selling Capitalists
They’ll just flee to another state when Democrat taxes get too high and continue on. Until the day they find they can’t.
