Forced to Cover Old Ground

The Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in the case of Miller v. Bonta, challenging California’s ban on so-called “assault weapons,” have filed a responding brief in the case, countering defense arguments and strategies already rejected by federal courts and the U.S. Supreme Court. [More]

California knows that, of course. Anything to impede.

But Angie, Angie Ain’t It Time We Said Goodbye?

Angie Craig’s office criticizes Fox News after receiving threatening messages over DC attack [More]

There’s a difference between sentiments and threats. As there are severe laws against real ones and we’re not told a crime has been committed, the default here is she’s whining and playing the victim for the cameras.

You want to talk about real threats, talk about the disarmament edicts Angie and her fellow prohibitionists impose on their countrymen.

Because Grabbers Know Best

On March 7th at 3PM the Senate Education Committee is scheduled to hear SB 551. Senate Bill 551, in its original, unamended form “Requires school districts to provide specified information related to secure storage of medications and firearms. Directs Oregon Health Authority to make information available to school districts.” [More]

Who

A Subject Matter Expert

“After reading about the history of the second amend and talking with a lot of hist & law professors- I believe the second amendment has been intentionally misinterpreted. It was never meant as an individual right it was created to protect state militias like the national guard.” [More]

What did he read and who did he talk to?

Is there anything more endearing than ignorance presented with arrogance? Now that he’s achieved Constitutional godhead, maybe he can produce the evidence ACLU failed to back before he was born…?

It Pays to Discover?

Discover Financial Services, a provider of credit cards, told Reuters it will allow its network to track purchases at gun retailers come April, making it the first among its peers to publicly give a date for moving ahead with the initiative, which is aimed at helping authorities probe gun-related crimes. [More]

So the rope-selling capitalists at Discover have sided with the in-your-face communists at SEIO/Amalgamated on their precrime snitch system.

Any gun owner who does not cancel his Discover card is giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Any FFL who accepts them is willfully giving up customer information.

That seems like the kind of thing NSSF could make go widespread — if it wanted to.

UPDATE

The merchant code in question is “5723 – Gun and ammunition shops,” and to that end, I’m hoping to get some Twitter play out of this:

Challenging False Authority

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed an amended federal complaint challenging the Biden administration’s new “Arm Brace Rule,” accusing the government of violating the Administrative Procedures Act, the Second Amendment and the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment. [More]

And the damning thing is, the government knows it’s violating all of those things.

Lies, Damned Lies, and…

Gun violence in US and what the statistics tell us [More]

I think they mean what selectively presented statistics tell us. For instance, you’d think in any honest analysis of the issue, stuff like who’s doing the violence and where it’s being done would be a foremost concern, instead of, you know, being deliberately omitted.

There are plenty of false conclusions being implied, as well. Case in point, it looks like “gun rights” groups outspend the prohibitionists, and some “gun pundits” are considering that as proof that “we” are winning.

That ignores grassroots vs. Astroturf, and leaves the most important consideration unsaid: The grabbers don’t have to spend as much. The government, with virtually unlimited tax plunder, is carrying the lion’s share of the legal costs, and the media provides all the free publicity they want while ignoring or deliberately suppressing the truth, as evidenced by the second link, above.
