Where Credit is Due

The Supreme Court Should Not Let Bureaucrats Invent Crimes by Rewriting the Law – The Trump administration’s unilateral ban on bump stocks turned owners of those rifle accessories into felons. [More]

Let’s not forget the role Wayne LaPierre and Chris Cox played in paving the way (and good luck finding their joint statement on the NRA website anymore).

Pointing all that out and more seems to make some people uncomfortable. One angry reader canceled his subscription over it.

You know the type.

Received via email from WarOnGuns Correspondent Wynn A:

The sentiment of gun owners seems to be if it isn’t ‘registered’ the powers that be don’t know about it. Fools errand. As witnessed with Katrina the goons will go door to door and forcibly search all buildings. The citizens of New Orleans went along with this outlandish conduct. Will today’s Americans do the same?

By the time they’re at your door, it’s too late.

Depending on the area, I have a feeling that if this starts in any significant numbers, many confiscators will end up more concerned about what’s coming to their door.

None Dare Call It Treason

Thompson, Goldman, Castro Introduce Bill to Disarm Cartels by Stopping Trafficking of American Guns Across Southern Border [More]

So they want to disarm Americans while cartels through their puppets continue to amass military-grade weapons and military-age men pour over the border Democrats want open for their superhighway to citizenship…

Still want to pretend it’s not germane to the “single issue,” “gun rights leaders”?

Up in Smoke

5 gun law facts you should know before toking that first legal joint [More]

What a mess.

If you do indulge, wear a Covid face diaper in (and out of) the store, buy with cash, and don’t smoke in front of anyone you can’t trust. That, and lie on the 4473, because being coerced to rat yourself out is a human rights violation.

Just understand that if you get caught, evil people are going to hurt you badly.

But No One’s Talking About Taking Your Guns

More to the point, what is the mental state of some ignorant Marxist hoplophobe who doesn’t understand the Second Amendment and thinks Americans who do will allow themselves to be disarmed?

A Matter of Optics

And I’ve never once seen a desk appearance issued on a gun possession case. Not once.” Usually, the defendant would be processed and arraigned immediately at the courthouse. [More]

Disarming Jews when people want to exterminate them creates an image problem the Democrats are desperate to contain. If only she’d been a Christian…

Good Thing This Has Nothing to Do with That ‘Single Issue’

Everywhere Is a Border State – NGOs receive taxpayer dollars to facilitate mass immigration all over the United States. Senate Republicans appear to have caved to Democrats on defunding them. [More]

And why not? They know the rice bowl guns groups will never tell their supporters about the greatest threat to RKBA, so they can continue to give “A” grades to politicians whose votes today will be undone by a Democrat supermajority tomorrow.

Change my mind.

Bullet Points

Army Ammunition Plant Is Tied to Mass Shootings Across the U.S. [More]

Tied by whom, Ben Dooley of The New York Times, the “D” part of the DSM? What was the purpose of writing this article?

I wonder if you compared all ammo sold by Lake City to the civilian market to the number of those rounds used in acts of violence what the abuse rate would be, and how many “0s” would follow the “.” to come up with a percentage…

She led the National School Walkout after the Parkland mass shooting. Then she left America [More]

And STAY out!

Meanwhile, CNN/Aol repeats the Big Lie:

Firearms are now the No. 1 killer of children and teens in America, surpassing motor vehicles accidents, which had been the leading cause of death among youth until 2020.

Got truth…?

Jam Session

How a Second Amendment case at the Supreme Court is putting gun rights groups in a jam [More]

That’s one way to spin getting your usurping @$$ handed to you…

“If someone is dangerous enough that society can’t trust them with a gun, they should be behind bars − it’s that simple,” Pratt said.

Bingo.

Sounds of Silence

This New Bill Would Shorten the Suppressor Waiting Period to 90 Days [More]

Oh, look: Master is going to loosen his whip hand.

I’ve got some Chore Boys that’ll shorten it a lot more than that.

It figures the same Fudd community that throws EBR owners under the bus would be all for enforcing and enhancing this Intolerable Act. Here’s the thing: I don’t hunt. To force me to pay prior restraint extortion before I can buy a gun or ammo is no different than a poll tax.

So how else would “we” pay for it?

How about how else would those engaging in those activities pay for it?

That’s where the “laboratory” of different states trying different things would show what works best– on lands outside the District that are not “Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings.”

Unauthorized Means Unlawful

The US Department of Justice made a major concession involving whether licensing officials working for executive agencies may exercise “discretion” over CCW permits. [Watch]

That is big.

And using that rationale, I’d argue they can’t exercise executive “discretion” in “rulemaking” not backed by legislation, either.

Or in creating new classifications of “prohibited persons.”
