Bleaters, Traitors, Oath-Breakers, and Tools for Tyranny

The bills prohibit anyone convicted of a misdemeanor domestic violence offense from owning a firearm or ammunition for 8 years following the payment of all related fines and completion of incarceration or probation conditions. [More]

But we can otherwise trust him without a custodian because we all know prohibited persons won’t be able to get guns, right?

The other oft-overlooked point: Exaggerated or outright false vengeance charges can be made and people who are overwhelmed can be pressured into a misdemeanor plea to get the threat of more and more severe charges off their backs — especially if they’re of limited means and don’t understand their rights and where they can go for help.

If the GOP doesn’t blow ’24 and the court stays the same, expect SCOTUS to rule IAW Bruen. How much injustice will be done in the meantime, and how many won’t be able to afford to challenge the unlimited tax plunder resources of the state?

We’re the Only Ones Chronic and Habitual Enough

“The Justice Department will do everything in its power to find and hold accountable the gun traffickers who are arming the cartels.” [More]

Good one! And they’re headline whoring for the same reasons.

Why does Sir Wilfrid’s cross-examination of Frau Helm come to mind…?

Corporate Media Conspicuously Quiet After Memphis Man Kills Four in Multi-Location Rampage [More]

No one criticizes the DSM more than I do, but that is simply not so.

Then there’s this:

Laws, if enforced, would have prevented him from owning the firearm he used to shoot women and girls.

No, they would not have. They couldn’t have unless, like the gun-grabbers, your contention is that citizen disarmament edicts work to stop chronic criminals.

They don’t.

Only one thing could.

Credible gun influencers have a responsibility to know better than to parrot the NRA’s/NSSF’s “Enforce existing Intolerable Acts” crap.

The Sentence First, Verdict Afterwards Act

Durbin, Duckworth Join Colleagues To Introduce Legislation To Protect Domestic Abuse Survivors From Gun Violence [More]

Durbin, Duckworth Join Colleagues To Introduce Legislation To Deny Constitutional Rights to the Accused — there, I fixed it for them.

No prognosis yet on GovTrack, but with a Republican House consider this political posturing by the usual gang of rights prohibitionists in anticipation of SCOTUS enraging them in Rahimi.

Assuming the GOP doesn’t blow ’24.

Up in Smoke

Did the ATF Just Make Airsoft Smoke Grenades Illegal? [More]

I’d read the notification and made the wrong assumption that this only applied to “government contractors and subcontractors performing explosives operations exclusively pursuant to a current and valid contract with a government agency,” but I guess that part just means they no longer have de facto exemptions.

Having zero experience with the Airsoft community, I wasn’t aware of that aspect.

It’s Academic

Based on the above literature and what I know from personal experience, legal possession of firearms must, in addition to already prescribed regulations, bi-yearly be obliged to take a gun-related training course, with fees, or risk having their licence confiscated. Gun owners must also, yearly, be interviewed by authorized personnel to articulate what they have been up to for the year, how they have used their gun over the past year and any problems they have had with their guns, licensing, or any other general concerns. [More]

I’ve talked before about Academia.edu, a website that features papers on all subjects and that I get notifications on when they post on guns. The above is from a 2014 paper, but what this idiot is proposing is useful to bring up now just to show just how delusional the pseudo-eggheads are, and how worthless their infringements against the obedient would be at addressing the real problems.

International Tribunal Lawsuit an Unconstitutional Attempt to Subvert Second Amendment

The same goes for the OAS and its Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, both of which have no authority, legal, moral, or otherwise, to impose their diktats and override “the supreme Law of the Land.” [More]

Our sympathy does not give sufferers leave to lay claim to our rights. And defund the OAS.

We’re the Only Ones Gangsta Enough

Incoming Assn. of Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs board member Jason Zabala previously described his tattoo under oath, saying it depicted a skeleton in a cowboy hat with a smoking rifle and the number 140. He called the stark combination of imagery a “station tattoo,” but others described it as the symbol of a deputy gang known as the Regulators. [More]

So these guys can get off-roster guns and you can’t…

It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.

Again with the Lie

House Republicans just voted to prohibit the CDC from studying gun deaths and gun injuries. [More]

And here I thought it was just to stop tax plunder from being used to stump for citizen disarmament

Dr. Mark Rosenberg, Director of the CDC’s National Center for Injury Control and Prevention (NCIPC) in 1994 told The Washington Post: “We need to revolutionize the way we look at guns, like what we did with cigarettes. Now it [sic] is dirty, deadly, and banned.”

No Charge!

The Brooklyn District Attorney had “no choice but to dismiss” Council Member Inna Vernikov’s weapons charge given her gun was “inoperable” … The council member’s charge, criminal possession of a firearm, requires the weapon in question be “capable of firing bullets” — meaning Vernikov’s charges wouldn’t stand, according to the District Attorney’s office.

So New Yorkers can have 80% receivers now…?

Or more likely, they were politically afraid to p!$$ off the wrong group of NY political power players…
