I’m with Hank on This One

Dickey and Rosenberg started out as “mortal enemies,” but after making small talk about their kids during a chance conversation they developed “an incredible friendship,” as Rosenberg recounts. Years later, they were habitually ending their conversations by telling each other “I love you,” and “we really meant it,” Rosenberg says. Through the power of this human connection, Dickey ends up seeing reason and changing his mind. He comes to believe that the amendment bearing his name was a mistake. [More]

Survey SAYS…

If Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) and U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D) face off in a possible 2024 U.S. Senate contest, 41 percent of Virginians would support Kaine, while 39 percent could support Youngkin, according to this year’s survey. [More]

How would this be possible?

“More… we need more!” says Mark Warner.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority…

And Jorge helped!

Clear as Mud

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is issuing this open letter to further assist the firearms industry and the public in understanding whether a “partially complete, disassembled, or nonfunctional” receiver of an AR-15/M-16 variant weapon has reached a stage of manufacture such that it “may readily be completed, assembled, restored, or otherwise converted” to a functional receiver, and is therefore classified as a “frame or receiver” or “firearm” in accordance with the final rule titled “Definition of ‘Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms (Final Rule 2021R-05F), which became effective August 24, 2022. [More]

At least until they change the rules again.

Any questions?

New York, New York, It’s a Wonderful Town

At least 16 hurt in 9 shootings during bloody day in NYC: cops [More]

Ah, the original Bloomberg City! The one he and his fellow violence monopolists are bent on remaking the rest of the country in the image of…

How are those “sensitive zones” working out?

Every Terrible Implement

CONNECTICUT CITIZENS DEFENSE LEAGUE AND SECOND AMENDMENT FOUNDATION SUE CT OVER BAN ON MODERN SPORTING ARMS [More]

I dunno– “in Common Use for Lawful Purposes Throughout the United States” seems to exclude everything that’s not, including what will be developed in the future.

As noted:

The Supreme Court, in its infamous Miller decision, nonetheless recognized the function of the Militia, defined as “all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense [and] bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time,” was — and still is — to field citizen soldiers. These citizens bore arms that were suitable for that purpose, “ordinary military equipment” intended to be taken into “common defense” battles. The Militia did not assemble on the green bearing clubs and spears. They came with the intent to match and best a professional military threat. A modern Militia would require citizens to keep and bear exactly what the gun-grabbing politicians are trying to take away from them, what they pejoratively denounce as “weapons of war.”

And as noted:

Second Amendment will be Nullified if ‘Common Use’ is Restricted to ‘Popularity’

Life in the Retardocracy

Barnes once said he “really could not care less about a 2nd Amendment ‘right’” to bear arms. [More]

This just proves what a damned idiot and a tool he is, and how willfully ignorant his supporters must be.

What the “our democracy” string-pullers don’t seem to be taking into account is when you erode respect for a position by offering obvious boobs like this as placeholders, you replace it with contempt for the office. Or maybe they are taking it into account, and it’s all part of a plan to bring about the day when they can drop all pretenses because their rule will be unchallengeable.

Gun and ‘Disinformation’ Control Show Tyranny is Growing

They don’t want you to have guns and they don’t want you to have free speech. Hey, if you can get away with ignoring the Second Amendment, why should you respect the First? [More]

What’s more, a globalist collectivist tyrant from New Zealand is joined on her pathway to tyranny by what our media pass off as a “conservative.”

With ‘Republicans’ Like These…

Texas will fight to block 18- to 20-year-olds from carrying handguns [More]

Well, you can buy the Ted Olson excuse, that regardless of how he feels, the AG is charged with defending existing state laws, or you can just as easily conclude that “Tea Party conservative” Paxton has reasons of his own to douse the fire in gun owners’ bellies before November to help turn the state blue.

We’re the Only Ones Culturally Revolutionary Enough

China has opened dozens of “overseas police service stations” around the globe to monitor its citizens living abroad, including one location in New York City… [More]

The thought strikes — with diplomatic immunity — Chicom agents couldn’t be prosecuted for being armed where “We the People” are not “allowed” to be.

VanDerStok v. Garland Challenge to ATF’s ‘Frame or Receiver’ Rule Update

Because the parties contest the utility of a completed classification request, the Court DENIES Defendants’ Motion and CLARIFIES that the current injunction precludes Defendants from concluding its classification determination with respect to Tactical’s product. [More]

My legally unqualified two cents: This is a hopeful development and it has the potential, in the end, to stop a lot of the Constitutionally-unauthorized tyrannical rule nonsense in its tracks, but it only applies to this limited case and there’s still a long way to go.

A Farewell to Arms

A man who spent 16 years in prison for a 2004 school shooting in upstate New York was attacked by a sword-wielding vagrant at the homeless shelter where he now works — and he’s going viral with candid TikTok updates on his recovery. Jon Romano, who was released from prison in 2020, had to have his arms reattached after they were severed in the terrifying Aug. 29 attack in Albany, that also left him with severe injuries to his head and legs… [More]

Finally — a “prohibited person” who was effectively disarmed…

And That’s the Way It Is

I see nothing surprising and would not expect them to have everything they own taken from them and be sent to prison as felons by defying tyranny enforcers that will destroy them. That said, it’s the reason I do not personally use the internet for such transactions.

But that said, there are still unanswered questions.

In any case, we have already established that I don’t own any guns and never have– nasty, scary things, always going around killing people…
