Notes from the Resistance
Democrats Rally Behind New Yorker Jeffries to Succeed Pelosi as House Leader [More]
Emboldened by the “red wave,” are we?
We’re talking about a “gun sense candidate” who admits background checks are for registration and let (Freudian) slip his inspiration by a communist dictator.
I may just have to do an article as the furor for this totalitarian wannabe heats up…
LAPD detective accused of trying to buy silencer online [More]
So if we’re to believe the commies over at the Center for American Progress (and why wouldn’t we?), he “pose[d] a unique risk to public safety”…?
As an aside, that’s a lot of “Only Ones” groups backing infringements. Remember that the next time some “law-abiding” über alles chump tells you “Back the Blue!” with a straight face.

Oregon State Police saw a spike in requests for Firearms Instant Check System (FICS) background requests leading up to and especially following the midterm election. [More]
While many assumed that the implementation date would be 30 days after the election was actually “certified” (given that votes were being counted long after Nov 7th) now we are being told the Secretary of State has no plans to wait and the ban of new gun sales and magazines will begin December 8th.
I have an AmmoLand piece on Measure 114 in the publishing queue.

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Delaware’s recently-adopted ban on so-called “assault weapons” on the grounds the legislation—known as House Bill 450—violates the Second Amendment. [More]
Show me a “commonsense gun safety” bill that doesn’t.
Today, the Attorney General sent a cease-and-desist letter to Sky Tactical Supply, warning the company that it is potentially committing criminal offenses by selling the FIFY in California, and is misleading California consumers about their criminal liability if they buy the product. [More]
This stuff makes my head hurt.
Will the American Empire Collapse in Our Lifetime? [More]
23 years later and I still haven’t had any gun-grabber try to answer my questions:
I must ask where in history is any civilization guaranteed stasis? Has not despotism and mass destruction plagued every civilization that preceded ours? Is it not, in fact, still commonplace throughout the globe? By what suspension of reality, by what denial of the observable and the probable, by what art, device or magic are we sheltered few immune from catastrophe? Are we certain, from our brief and privileged vantage point, that such things will ever remain headline curiosities? Is it not just plain stupid to proclaim that our familiar way of life will forever be the norm, when everything that has gone before us shows we are, instead, the extremely lucky beneficiaries of a rare and fortunate convergence of circumstances; and one, by the way, that has only been preserved under force of arms?

More Than Two Dozen Gun Control Measures Prefiled for 2023 Session of the Texas Legislature [More]
None of them pass the Bruen “historical understanding” benchmark, but that doesn’t matter to the antis, who will never stop because they have the resources and media support to keep coming and coming and coming…

The Montgomery County Council unanimously approved a bill on Tuesday banning the possession of firearms within 100 yards of a place of public assembly… it bans the possession of firearms in most public places, including “a park; place of worship; school; library; recreational facility; hospital; community health center; long-term facility; or multipurpose exhibition facility, such as a fairgrounds or conference center.” [More]
And we’ve already seen the “good” that does.
But don’t worry. “Only Ones” are exempted.
“[T]he son of immigrant parents,” eh, Gabe? So they figured imposing their native citizen disarmament practiced by those they were fleeing on those taking them in would be just the ticket?
Good thing that has nothing to do with the “single issue”. And I have that on good authority…

New York: replica gun ban takes affect November 14 [More]
Do you think we should tell the “real reporters”?
I talked about tyrants of color before.
And long before that.

Christie, a former Trump ally who is now considering his own 2024 presidential campaign, said voters “rejected crazy” in the 2022 midterms and that Republicans lost because of bad candidates. [More]
Speaking of crazy bad candidates:
Within hours of police arresting a suspect in the fatal shooting of three University of Virginia football players, the White House called for an assault weapons ban even though the suspect was alleged to have used a handgun in the killings. [More]
It’s not like anyone ignorant enough to vote for them will know.

Tell us how bad you’ve got it here with white Christian men, militant Democrat chicks.
And keep telling women owning guns puts them at risk.
Hobbs wins Arizona governor’s race, flipping state for Dems [More]
Yeah, about that:
In addition to Mark Kelly and Kyrsten Sinema, Arizona is pretty much now ruled by the high population center Democrat strongholds.
Funny… I don’t see “More Freedom” in any of the reasons the nest foulers give for moving there.
We are all in on this fight. Oregon Firearms Educational Foundation will use every resource at our disposal to overturn this mean spirited, evil attack on our rights in court. Period. But we have to act fast to save the many small businesses that the “people of faith” in Portland have been working to destroy. [More]
I’ll be working this afternoon on an article about this.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday turned away another challenge to a federal ban imposed under former President Donald Trump on devices called “bump stocks” that enable a semi-automatic weapon to fire like a machine gun. The justices declined to review an appeal by a group of firearms dealers and individuals in Minnesota, Texas and Kentucky after a lower court rejected their argument that the government had violated the U.S. Constitution’s Fifth Amendment “takings clause” by effectively taking their private property without just compensation. [More]
As noted before, all the High Court needs to do to let tyranny stand is…nothing.
And thanks again, Donald.

Attorney General James Releases Statement on Court Decision to Temporarily Keep New York’s Concealed Carry Gun Laws [More]
No surprise– they got a stay on Antonyuk v. Hochul.
[Via Jess]
And after engaging with this Nation’s tradition of firearm regulations several times already, the Court’s unanswered question is whether Bruen demands lower courts manicure the Second Amendment’s landscape by scalpel or chainsaw….As a result, the Court holds that § 922(g)(8) is unconstitutional under Bruen’s framework. It is therefore ORDERED that Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss Indictment be GRANTED. [More]
This…
Read the opinion. Wow!
Expect a challenge from Team Tyranny, because otherwise, their whole damn Gordian knot will unravel.
