‘Other Purposes’?

H.R. 660: To amend chapter 44 of title 18, United States Code, to require the safe storage of firearms, and for other purposes. [More]

159 treasonous Democrats have signed on as co-sponsors, and there’s a companion bill in the Senate.

Chances of passage with a Republican House are low, but you never know when the planets will converge to persuade the Vichycons to jump ship.

The Devil in the Details

This technical change pushes “others” within the definition of “assault weapon” under Connecticut’s ban… While residents of other states are able to register these firearms with the ATF, or change the short barrels for longer ones to make them legal, the ATF has stated that it will not permit any such registrations from Connecticut residents due to Connecticut’s “assault weapon” ban. Nor will changing out the barrels avoid redesignation as banned “assault weapons” under Connecticut law. [More]

Damned if they did, damned if they didn’t.

More Than Robbers Thwarted

The store owner was subsequently shot in the back by one of the suspects but managed to return fire with two of his legally-owned firearms. The store owner was able to strike one of the suspects multiple times, while the other suspect reportedly fled during the first struggle during the incident… [More]

Every f*****g liar who calls citizen disarmament “commonsense gun safety” would rather the store owner had been unarmed and killed so they could have more blood to dance in. And speaking of f*****g liars, check out the accompanying video.

Of course they’re talking about taking your guns — and doing more than talking whenever they can get away with it.

Deliberate frauds and/or useful idiots: There is no other kind of gun-grabber.

Never Mind, eh?

Canada’s Liberal government repealed on Friday elements of its gun-control legislation that proposed banning rifles and shotguns widely used by hunters, farmers and indigenous communities. The surprise decision emerged after the plan to target thousands of rifles and shotguns sparked widespread opposition from the governing Liberals’ political allies on gun control, indigenous leaders and gun-rights advocates.

Somebody misjudged blowback.

Now that the pressure’s been relieved, look for the only group caring about further infringements to be the one they believe they can safely ignore.

Meanwhile, Over at the Legion of Doom

The coalition of 117 organizations called for the plan to include declaring a national emergency around gun violence, establishing a federal office for gun violence prevention and appointing a full-time director for the effort. [More]

Who’s infringin’? We’re amendin’.

There Goes the Boyfriend Loophole!

The question presented in this case is not whether prohibiting the
possession of firearms by someone subject to a domestic violence restraining order is a laudable policy goal. The question is whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(8), a specific statute that does so, is constitutional under the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. In the light of N.Y. State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n, Inc. v. Bruen, 142 S. Ct. 2111 (2022), it is not. [More]

Any Person

“Any person who violates the provisions of this section is guilty of a fourth degree felony.” [More]

“Any person” would seem to include any person traversing the state on these interstates.

But don’t worry. Any person will be protected as a traverser. Maybe.

For this and other “concessions” on illegitimate claims against our birthrights “we” accepted the “voice vote” Hughes Amendment…?

Does any person doubt it will pass?
