Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick Says He Would Leave GOP if Pennsylvania Had Open Primaries [More]
So, he’ll just make it official?
He’s running unopposed? Probably because he’s got a f_ton of money, with the top donor being AIPAC.
Any gun owner who votes for this traitor because “he’s not a Democrat” is a willing dupe. Republicans must learn they have no chance until they present principled offerings.
Will you?

“Because machine guns are not protected by the Second Amendment as weapons in common use for lawful purposes, we affirm,” wrote Chief U.S. Circuit Judge William Pryor, adding the 11th Circuit joins “several sister circuits in holding that the Second Amendment does not protect the possession of machine guns.” [More]
Don’t believe him? How ’bout the guy you probably voted for three times?
How many more times do I have to say this before someone with a voice in “gun leadership” busy handing out Gundies to each other listens?
Pryor, of course, is a “Republican” appointed by the “Vote Freedom First” President.

In any case, in what follows, I argue (I strongly believe, soundly) that not only (i) owning, carrying, and/or using guns, but also (ii) The 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution, and (iii) their necessary consequence, gun violence, are all rationally unjustified and immoral on broadly Kantian ethical grounds, and that therefore, (iv) Gun Abolitionism is rationally justified, morally right, and what we ought to do, by means of (iva) repealing The 2 nd Amendment, and then (ivb) universally banning owning, carrying, and/or using guns. [More]
Thank you! I was afraid not enough gun owners would take this seriously.
Funny, he should represent himself as an ideogical follower of Kant:
Kant called for the gradual abolition of standing armies (professional armies maintained in peacetime) and for their replacement by citizen militias.
What a hoser, eh?
Oh, and look at this:
Just send money. I have to laugh at juxtaposing these “serious” academic citations against the memory of the letter from the dean telling me to shape up or ship out.

Rep. Clyde Leads Coalition Urging Trump to Pick an A-G Who Will ‘Immediately’ Wipe Away Biden Gun Control [More]
Good ideas, especially the part saying ” The DOJ should not be in the business of defending plainly unconstitutional firearms restrictions.”
Too bad we rarely see such leadership when elections aren’t forthcoming, with sustaining momentum afterward for lasting solutions always being the problem.

According to the Trace’s 2024 IRS for 990, the Editor-in-Chief was paid more than $280,000. A staff writer made more than $170,000. [More]
There’s good money in having Daddy issues!
Warner and Kaine Introduce Legislation to Safeguard Americans from the Scourge of Gun Violence [More]
2% chance of being enacted — for now.
Don’t worry– Mr. Trump and the Republicans are doing everything in their power to blow their majorities. And when the Democrats finally get the power to ram these into “law,” they’ll be back for more.
No one seriously thinks any of this is about “public safety,” do they?

Woman opens fire on Maryland gas station clerk during attempted robbery… “At approximately 7:43 p.m. April 17 police were called to the Shell gas station in the 7200 block of Cradlerock Way in Columbia for a report of a shooting,” police said in a statement. [More]
“Unrelated charges in another state”…? My, aren’t we entitled.
I’m entering this on Tuesday evening. I predict they’ll have identified this stupid, angry, waddling Democrat welfare parasite by the time I’m ready to post it.
Ha! Shantay O’Donnell.
Any relation to Rosie…?
Far Left Anti-Billionaire Group Linked to Bernie Sanders Endorses Billionaire Tom Steyer for Governor of California [More]
The issue never really matters– those are just hooks to bring in disgruntled pawns. The cause célèbre always takes a back seat to the greater goal of conquest through subversion.
When that’s won, the useful idiots will get what’s coming to them.
One Percenter Steyer, of course, wants you disarmed.
He sure is keeping his security measures close to the vest.

Governor DeWine Orders Flags Lowered in Honor of Former Ohio House of Representatives Member William ‘Bill’ Patmon [More]
The Democrat who opposed “stand your ground” and instead demanded to impose “lock up your safety”…? And said “Everything that looks like a gun and is not should not be on our streets”…?
I think I’ll see if I can raise mine up a notch.
There are no “friends across the aisle.”
And with friends like DeWine…

Nice to see the attorneys get paid for a change.

Here’s the day when the state has to admit wrongdoing and beg forgiveness.
Lutheran minister and House candidate under fire after recounting her part in satanist couple’s wedding [More]
When the mask slips on Democrats we see a commie. When that one slips, things get more primal.
That said, I have an unanswered challenge for politicians of all stripes.
Be a shame if some graphics-savvy gun owners pulled a Condi on her, and got creative from there. Hey, if USA Today can do it…
Accordingly, we urge you to: 1) Issue a public statement that the ATF will not take further enforcement action regarding the classification of braced pistols as short-barrel rifles under the NFA; 2) Issue an interpretive rule clarifying that firearms equipped with stabilizing braces do not qualify as short-barreled rifles under the NFA; and 3) Through ongoing litigation, enter into a judicially-enforceable consent agreement, which would 1) permanently enjoin the ATF from attempting to revive the Biden-era Rule through new rulemaking and 2) permanently enjoin the ATF from taking any further enforcement action related to the classification of braced pistols as short-barreled rifles under the NFA. [More]
Must be primaries and midterms coming up…
Sorry, don’t mean to sound so cynical and distrusting. It’s just that I’m cynical and distrusting.

The anti-gun-rights Brady group, which previously endorsed Eric Swalwell for Congress and honored him as a guest speaker at a 2024 gala awards event—the same night he allegedly assaulted his female aide—has erased his name from its website and a video of the event has reportedly vanished from its YouTube page, but the taint of their past association remains, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said.

Gee, it’s almost like there’s historic precedent…
And following that same playbook is “powerful woman” husband Jimmy Kimmel, who won’t say anything in defense of victim allegations until enough people start noticing.
Hypocrites, liars and cowards all.
It wasn’t “gun violence” that killed Fairfax and his wife, it was him. [More]
Why is it those who demand to control us can’t — or won’t — control themselves?
