In a late-night vote on Saturday, gun-grabbers in the Colorado House of Representatives passed three bills infringing on the right of the people to keep and bear arms. [More]
Not that “insurance” (which they call “murder insurance” if you get it on your own) will cover actual murder, or that this isn’t just a plot to harass and close down dealers, or that the real sin isn’t coveting your countrymen’s rights…
The Nevada Supreme Court upheld a 2021 state ban on ghost guns Thursday, overturning a lower-court decision that declared the law unconstitutional for being vague. [More]
Those against the ban really thought the issue was the law was too vague?
It doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to. It’s just that, being a typical Democrat, he wants someone else to pay for testing things in court before he decides if this is somehting a parasite could attach itself to.
Twenty-four years ago tomorrow (April 22, 2000), Attorney General Janet Reno ordered gun-toting immigration officers to snatch six-year-old Elián Gonzalez from his Miami home in preparation for his return to communist Cuba after a lengthy diplomatic dispute. [More]
“The definition of ‘to predominantly earn a profit’ now focuses only on whether the intent underlying the sale or disposition of firearms is predominantly one of obtaining pecuniary gain… ’ to define the terms ‘purchase’ and ‘sale’ as they apply to dealers to include any method of payment or medium of exchange for a firearm…”
Did they just tank anonymous “buybacks” with “no questions asked”? I know some gun owners publicize selling cheap junk for a profit… I don’t see a carve out for buybacks in the text (albeit I only did a word search and have not pored through the whole mess).
It turns out Armed Attorneys addressed that in a video Len Savage sent me the link to, along with this observation:
Fun fact: The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was touted to close the “gun show loophole” to prevent buying a firearm without a background check,
However; There is NOTHING in the rule (based on the law passed) that effects or applies to a BUYER.
NOTHING!
Meaning it would only affect the seller of a firearm to a buyback program.
Don’t take my word on it, here are two attorneys discussing it.
The relevant section starts at 8:12:
So it looks like they outsmarted themselves, and now need to ignore their own rule.
So, every time the antis hold a buyback, why not loudly complain and warn people they’re being invited to violate “commonsense gun safety laws”?
That is our case. They’re defying the Supreme Court. What are you going to do about it?
NAGR has certainly come a long way over the years and has been doing some very good work on all our behalf. Perhaps it’s time to put past mutual animosities with other groups aside…?
Ep. 96 How did a self-described conservative evangelical like Mike Johnson wind up supporting the anti-Christian policies of the Biden administration? He’s not the only one, as Megan Basham explains. pic.twitter.com/w0XJqzV06V
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
And not to derail more important considerations, but when I heard the line about strip clubs staying open during Covid shutdowns while everybody else was being shut down, my first thought was to wonder where they wore the masks…
A handful of antis and Fudds repeating tired old lies was enough to get the Department to cave. As for their excuse that it was too soon after the Lewistown shooting, the question not being asked is what does a known nutjob going ballistic after being left alone by fearful authorities have to do with peaceable citizens and their lawfully owned rifles– and will the time ever come when prohibitionists don’t object to such training? If the maniac rammed his car into a group of people, would Maine cancel drivers ed classes? [More]
Ceding to prejudice, ignorance, and fear is no way to run a department.
Oliver’s latest effort to honor his son is completely different. He is a consultant on a short film, “American Cancer Story,” a chilling look at both childhood cancer and school shootings. [More]
We’ve talked about this rights hater before. And again. And again, where it’s apparent he’s getting increasingly ghoulish. But it’s interesting that all the projects he’s involved in are high dollar and don’t look like they’ll actually change any minds or succeed, so by all means, antis, squander it on no bang for the buck efforts that make you feel good and do nothing else.
I am sorry for his “gun-free zone”-enabled loss. That does not give him claim to put me and those I love in the same vulnerable position.
At that hearing, a law officer “falsely told the judge that ATF had been watching Mr. Wilson for 13 months and then listed dates the ATF falsely claimed he sold drugs. The agent also falsely told the judge that the Government had Mr. Wilson on tape committing these crimes,” the lawsuit said. [More]
We know Wilson’s name. How come we don’t know the name of the incompetent badged thug, and what’s going to happen with him?
Why only civil charges for kidnapping/hostage-taking? And why wouldn’t a citizen have the right to use all necessary force to protect himself and stop them?
