I Got Your ‘Procedural Tool’ Right Here

Many Democrats are already maneuvering to tap a procedural tool, known as a discharge petition, in a long-shot effort to force votes on high-profile gun reforms — like expanded background checks and an assault weapons ban — over the objection of the majority party leadership. [More]

For now, they’re making noise. After 2024 we’ll see. And note the DSM default to “reforms.”

The thought of enforcing such diktats brings a different meaning to “tap,” “discharge,” and “long shot” to mind…

Neighbors in shock after learning beloved couple were the hostages in deadly Roseville shooting [Watch]

Naturally, the scumbag has a record. And naturally, the story goes light on who shot the hostages. And why the “Only Ones” thought going after a known danger in a public place is left unexplained.

There’s no indication the victims would have been so inclined, but assuming either of them had gone through all the hoops for a Placer County CWP, California Democrats and the predator empowerment lobby have taken steps to “ensure “designat[e] vital community spaces like parks and playgrounds as off-limits to weapons throughout the state.”

Cold Turkey for Authority Junkies?

In sum, § 922(d)(3) does not withstand Second Amendment scrutiny for much the same reasons that § 922(g)(3) does not. The law’s broad prohibition on the sale or transfer of firearms to unlawful users of controlled substances burdens the Second Amendment rights of those individuals to nearly the same extent as § 922(g)(3). And, as the Court found when assessing § 922(g)(3), our Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation does not support placing such a burden on the Second Amendment right. [More]

It would be rich if the person who ultimately got this part of the law overturned for good was Hunter Biden.

First Do Harm

That appears to be the mission statement for Opposite Day “progressive” gunquacks:

It’s the part of me that won’t give up on our AMA efforts to stop the public health crisis of gun violence, demanding waiting periods, universal background checks, red flag laws, and bans on assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines that our House of Delegates policy supports. Enough is ENOUGH. I’ll keep relentlessly showing up to accomplish those goals.

I wish he’d shake his rattles or yell a few times as Dr. Mbogo does. Makes you feel like he’s accomplishing something.

Don’t these charlatans have some children to give clot shots to?

None Dare Call It Treason

Both chambers of the Washington State Legislature have now approved a historic ban on the sale of assault weapons in Washington state. [More]

They know they’re doing evil. They not only don’t care, they get off on it.

This will be resolved one of two ways: Either the Supreme Court will rule it unconstitutional, or the people who will not disarm will.

Then on to the next Intolerable Act

A High Hurdle?

The firearm industry wants to keep firearms out of the hands of those who cannot be trusted to responsibly possess them. That includes prohibited individuals, those suffering through a mental health crisis or suffering suicidal ideations and unsupervised children. “Red flag” laws have utility in protecting the public but must be carefully administered so these orders aren’t abused to disarm lawful gun owners. [More]

Define “unsupervised children.”

Yeah, listen to the latter-day Judenrat and collaborate with the jackboots. What could go wrong?

And continue ignoring the only thing that will work.

What’s the Constitution Got to Do With It?

As expected, the clearly unconstitutional HB 2005, with the -11 amendment passed out of the Ways and Means Committee today on a party line vote. (Even the lawyer who wrote the bill told the committee that it’s likely much of the bill is unconstitutional.) [More]

It’s not that they don’t care that it’s tyrannical. That it is is what they get off on.

No Better About It. Late Means Never.

Where were they back when?

And now with zero chance of passing through the Schumer Senate to the Biden White House…

Consider it another Sealab Bizarro moment.

It’s a Big 俱乐部 and You Aint In It

The Supreme Court also struck down a New York state law that had been in place since 1913 restricting people from carrying concealed firearms. As the nation reflects on gun violence, such a reckless reversal of New York’s gun control law is intolerable, noted the governor of New York. American political commentator Matthew Dowd pointed out that the problems facing the United States today are rooted in the fragmentation of democracy. What American citizens want are a fair ruling in Roe v. Wade, a real gun reform, higher minimum wages, steeper taxes on the super-rich, better health care for all, and other reforms that heed popular calls. [More]

So the Bush/Cheney chief campaign strategist is basically speaking for the Chicoms on “gun control”…
