Ruse of the Fisherman

Both the government and the Vatican, with the steady connivance of the United States, saw how detrimental the ongoing struggle was to their mutual interests; in consequence, an agreement or modus vivendi was reached and reluctantly accepted by the Cristero combatants, who, in the end, were betrayed by it. [More]

I haven’t read this book but will put it on the list, because I’ve long been interested in how the Church hierarchy betrayed the faithful then and continue to do so today.

Gun Groups’ Warm Welcome for Trump’s Proposed ATF Head is Premature

Gun owners who pay attention to his confirmation hearings will have a chance to hear for themselves, and see how Cekada’s answers, especially to questions posed by anti-gun Democrats, comport with being “truly pro-Second Amendment.” [More]

“He won’t betray us as much” seems a heck of a standard to applaud.

It Should Go Without Saying

An attorney representing a California man who is challenging the state’s ban on firearm silencers argued to a panel of judges in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals that the devices are protected under the Second Amendment. [More]

Shoot, anyone who’s not a moron or a monster knows that.

Land of the Writhing Son

Japan suffered deadliest month of bear attacks in history, with 7 deaths and 88 maulings in October [More]

Then again, it’s always been that way for Nihonjin…

And before anybody starts in on guns and crime, there’s not only a fundamental demographic difference, but violent crime among the millions of peaceable members of U.S. gun owner groups, the most heavily armed population on the planet, compares favorably to Japan’s disarmed populace.

‘Just Following Orders’

So DOJ is just following orders?

Precedent says that’s no excuse:

In the case of the US v. Josef Altstötter, et al., an American military tribunal tried members of the Reich Ministry of Justice as well as jurists and prosecutors of the People’s Court [Volksgericht] and Special Court [Sondergericht].

As for voting to change the law, what they’re saying is individual citizens in solid blue states are f_d by a tyranny of the majority. What they’re saying the Bill of Rights isn’t worth the parchment it’s printed on.

Dishonoring the Dead

Appearing at a Veterans Day ceremony to score a photo-op hardly makes Scranton Mayor Paige Cognetti a supporter of veterans … Instead, she ingratiated herself with hard left “progressives” by issuing a mayoral “Wear Orange” proclamation. [More]

Good letter and good points by WarOnGuns Correspondent Andy M.

Letters to the editor are an often-overlooked tool by many gun owners that can get our voices outside of the echo chamber. I wrote a column back in 2009 trying to encourage more of it and giving some pointers gleaned from personal experience as to how to up your chances of getting published.

Bear Minimums

Rampaging grizzly bear attacks schoolchildren and teacher on Canada hike leaving at least 11 injured with two in critical condition [More]

You might ask what kind of teachers would knowingly expose their charges to lethal threats while deliberately having no means of protecting them, and the answer is most of them.

Mission Possible?

A Queens senior citizen who shot dead a man who tried to rob him will spend four years in prison after admitting to toting an unlicensed revolver — as his lawyer ripped the city’s “draconian” gun laws. [More]

Good morning, Ms. Dhillon. Your mission, should you choose to accept it…

Upcoming Account Changes Due to CA Assembly Bill 1263

The CA legislature recently passed Assembly Bill 1263, which puts additional regulations on the sale and shipment of firearm parts and gunsmithing tools. Unfortunately, this means that there will be some new restrictions on how you order and how we ship firearm parts and gunsmithing tools to you. [More]

I wonder how they’d be able to find out if you had a trusted friend in a neighboring, freer state you could drive to order them for you.

BFF at ATF

Gun rights groups hail Trump’s pick to lead ATF: ‘First ever truly pro-Second Amendment nominee’ [More]

A true champion of the Second Amendment, eh? I wonder what Fletcher thinks.

He’ll be a DOJ team player. This is how the team plays:

Staying in Character

Dem congresswoman indicted for ‘particularly selfish’ alleged theft of FEMA relief funds for campaign use [More]

If you’re not afraid to steal people’s guns, why would you be afraid to steal their money?

It goes with a communist entitlement mentality:

We shouldn’t have to explain to our children why Congress took dinner off the table.

You shouldn’t have to explain why “Congress” needs to feed them.

Merits Brief Informs SCOTUS on Hawaii’s ‘Vampire Rule’

Upholding Hawaii’s disarmament edict “fails every aspect of the analytical framework established by Bruen,” Beck and Petitioner Co-Counsel Mark W. Pennack argue. [More]

It’s difficult to conceive how the same court that gave us Bruen could agree that the Founders would have been cool with ubiquitous infringements.

From the State That Gave Us Joe Biden

Delaware’s permit to purchase handgun law takes effect; What to know and who has exemptions [More]

We know would-be tyrants will ignore the Bill of Rights as long as they feel immune to personal costs, and we know these guys are exempt.
