Notes from the Resistance
SCOTUS to look at law barring accused domestic abusers from buying guns… As the Supreme Court justices race to finish up the current term, they will meet behind closed doors on Thursday to consider whether they should add a blockbuster Second Amendment case to the docket for next term. [More]
I’m not seeing where they did…
If you know differently, chime in.

Each episode ends with a segment we call Siegel’s Scope, where Dr. Michael Siegel, a renowned researcher and professor, magnifies a particular area of gun ownership and gun policy.
Listen to a clip of Siegel’s Scope below!
Well, you can, but you know what he’s going to say.
They’re not going to get a gun lock from a black-market dealer, are they? [More]
Besides, it’s not like the motivation is really about “gun safety”…
“This is hilarious. The boss of Raytheon, one of the US top weapons manufacturers, says the company has ‘several thousand suppliers in China and decoupling . . . is impossible.’” [More]
Say, gang, I’ve got a swell idea! Let’s force that same dependency on America’s entire supply chain!
Any questions about why those bringing this about, like their masters, don’t want us armed?
Hey, who’s up for dying for “gun-free” Taiwan?
Today, the U.S. Senate failed to block the Biden Pistol Brace Rule under the Congressional Review Act. The final vote, which was split along party lines, was 50-49. During debate, Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer spread disinformation about pistol braced firearms, claiming that they convert pistols into machineguns. [More]
So where are all those “pro-gun Democrats” we’re assured are out there?
Ultimately, I’m a Second Amendment guy…But I’m okay giving up some of that freedom, right? [More]
This seems to be a new narrative talking point.
What will three times make it?

“I’m a Second Amendment guy. I taught it for four years, six years in law school. And guess what? It doesn’t say that you can own any weapon you want. It says there are certain weapons that you just can’t own. Even during when it was passed, you couldn’t own a cannon. You can’t own a machine gun.… No, I’m serious.” [More]
Someone should dig up syllabuses, the texts he used, and some exams.
What a dog-faced pony soldier’s ass. That not one Democrat or “commonsense gun safety group” member feels compelled to publicly correct such blatant incompetence and dishonesty is all anyone needs to know their integrity.

Accidental shootings by children keep happening. How toddlers are able to fire guns. [More]
Mostly through inexcusable criminal negligence in high-risk households, but you’ll note the CBS/Everytown axis made sure to make the dangers seem uniformly widespread.
The object here is to take things that are virtually universally preventable through appropriate choices and behaviors, like addictions, unwanted pregnancies, and STDs, and turn them into “social problems” that those who behave themselves just fine end up paying the price for.

H.R. 4202: To amend title 18, United States Code, to expand to all firearms the requirement that Federal firearms licensees report sales of 2 or more handguns to the same unlicensed person within 5 consecutive business days. [More]
Is there anyone on the sponsors list that’s NOT a bloated career parasite?

Ex-deputy head of Prince George and Princess Charlotte’s first school Thomas’s Battersea is facing years in jail after paying Indian teenagers £65,000 to sexually abuse children [More]
Yes, what is safeguarding?
I’d say “Frickin’ Limeys,” but California Democrats are no better.
Scott Wiener and Susan Eggman, eh?

“We’ve got to get the guns out of the hands of people who are not supposed to have guns. I support the Second Amendment BUT there is no scenario in which a 15- or 16-year-old is allowed to have a gun.” [More]
Of course, there is, and many of us have personal experience, both as young people and as parents.
Our children are no more responsible for the aberrations of self-entitled feral degenerates than we are for the actions of the subsidized citizenship malpractitioners that produced them.
If the problem is stealing guns from cars, try getting rid of the “gun-free zones” that coerce people to make the choice to disarm. That and get rid of sociopathic @$$holes who break into other people’s cars in the first place.
[Via Remarks]
Today, after lengthy delays due to technical issues that shut down state websites, the House Republicans folded up and provided the quorum the Democrats needed to pass House Bills 2002 and 2005. [More]
The reality is, since we will not disarm regardless of what diktats are forced through, stupid and gutless Vichycons don’t realize they need us more than we need them.
Who wants to spend years and substantial effort to force a correction and not even be able to recover costs? Who has those kinds of resources? [More]
Here’s another huge advantage that rights deniers with unlimited state resources have over gun owners of limited means.
Issue 1, a ballot initiative that asks Ohio voters if the state should strengthen the petition process and raise the threshold to 60% for approving constitutional amendment proposals… [More]
Otherwise, urban Democrats will presume to dictate your rights for you.
A federal appeals court has restored most of New Jersey’s new gun control laws limiting firearms in sensitive public places after overturning a lower court ruling blocking many restrictions while a legal challenge plays out. [More]
Here’s the order. If someone gets killed as a result of it, I wonder how much sleep the judges will lose.
Krause was appointed by Obama and Chung was appointed by Biden. The one that concerns me here is Porter, appointed by Trump.

Ever want to see Gun Controller’s REAL thoughts..? We had a mole inside their conference… [Watch]
“Keith Ellison” says it all.
And that’s an interesting revelation about how few nationwide virtually attended.
