Something’s Fishy

CNN EXCLUSIVE ‘Something has to be done’: After decades of near-silence from the CDC, the agency’s director is speaking up about gun violence [More]

“Something must be done!”

Where have I heard THAT before?

I don’t suppose ol’ Rochelle has a rational answer to “What?”

And what’s with “decades of near silence“?

UPDATE

Well, I not only posted on an old story that’s a couple of years old but the very same story I cited in my above-linked AmmoLand piece. That’s what happens when I’m in a hurry, I guess…

Crying Shame

“We won’t shy away”: Mayors are shaming gunmakers [More]

No, the only ones who are being shameful are these petty incompetent tyrants. I wonder if you did an analysis of criminal members of their population what the rate would be.

What the gun makers should be ashamed of is continuing to arm these tin-pot dictator’s enforcers.

Delay of Game

A judge has issued a temporary restraining order blocking the new Illinois law banning assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines [More]

Related, just to show how worlds apart we are:

“They took an oath of office to enforce the laws of the state of Illinois, and they will do so,” Pritzker said of the sheriffs Friday in Chicago after signing a law protecting abortion and gender-affirming care.

That’s not what the oath is to, but funny how this disgusting pig of a privileged elite domestic enemy now demands his enforcers be “oath keepers”…

That’s not without precedent.

Lies of Commission

By now you may have heard or seen stories in the media claiming that the firm “representing” Oregon Firearms Federation in our Federal lawsuit is owed thousands of dollars in legal fees. This allegation is false. Maxine Bernstein ([email protected]; 503-221-8212) a “reporter” for the failing “Oregonian” who made these allegations (which were parroted by others in the cartel media), knows it’s false. [More]

Jeez, if we can’t believe a “real reporter,” who can we believe?

I don’t see this up on the OFF Alerts page yet, so I went ahead and posted it to my WoG Placeholder blog.

An Informed Opinion

From David T. Hardy, via an email discussion concerning SCOTUS declining to hear a challenge to New York concealed carry laws:

It just declined to grant a stay pending appeal (or, to be more exact, refused to overrule the 2nd Circuit’s decision to grant a stay), which is not really refusing to hear the case. The two dissenters suggested they were ready to jump down the 2nd Circuit’s throat if it didn’t do the right thing.

The 2nd Circuit is going to look at this case very carefully….

Napoleon, when someone was going into detail on a particular general’s military virtues and why he deserved promotion, cut him off with “Enough, tell me one thing — is he lucky?” Meaning, I think, does he get results that no one expected. The attorney in the case, Steven Stamboulieh, appears to be very, very, lucky. He is someone to watch, now and ten years from now when we in the old guard are gone.

Dave Hardy, author of Dred Scott: The Inside Story

Still Repressive After All These Years

Back in the day, Democrats reacted to the Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision requiring that they respect all Americans’ civil liberties with fury and a petulant campaign of massive resistance. What is old is new again – the Democrat Party is back in form, furious that SCOTUS will not let them steal our rights. This time it is gun rights. The Bruen decision made it clear that blue states cannot deny your right to keep and bear arms on a whim. And the libs have gone into overdrive to undermine it. [More]

That the lying totalitarian wannabes call themselves “liberals” is all we need to know.

Brace Yourselves

Congressman Bob Good (VA-05) introduced the Protecting Individual Sovereignty Through Our Laws Act, or PISTOL Act. This legislation would prevent the Biden Administration from regulating pistol braces by clarifying that what constitutes a “pistol” is not subject to bureaucratic interpretation, such as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has wrongly done in their recently finalized rule. [More]

I don’t see it listed under his name on GovTrack yet but consider the bill’s passage prognosis pretty much “0” with a Democrat Senate and president.

Just When You Thought It Was Safe to Get Back in the Water

Supreme Court rejects New York gun retailers’ bid to block new concealed carry laws [More]

How the same court that ruled on Bruen could refuse to block this has Yul baffled.

I’m not sure it’s the “major blow” this is being presented as, and it could be there’s some 3D chess going on by Thomas and some others to allow lower court challenges to continue, but Lord knows I’ve been dead wrong in trying to figure out what it takes to acknowledge “shall not be infringed” before.

Maybe somebody’s got pictures?

Punching Back

SAF FILES FEDERAL LAWSUIT AGAINST ILLINOIS GUN BAN [More]

Look at all the legal actions, just for this group.

You’d better believe part of the enemy’s legal strategy is to use their virtually unlimited tax plunder resources to deplete their victims’ resources.

I’d really like to see a concerted effort by the “gun lobby” to go after qualified immunity for enforcers abetting tyranny.
