Shane! Come Back!

Ozzy Osbourne ‘fed up’ with US gun violence, moving back to UK [More]

The cultural loss will be devastating!

I haven’t been this broken up since Chrissy Teigen said she was quitting Twitter and “taking [her] talents” elsewhere.

I wonder how many people have been murdered by the gangs and cartels in Ozzie’s decades-long drug supply chain…

So… after he tried to strangle his wife, no feminists are going to join me in saying “Good riddance, you f***ing cowardly p**** of s***”?

Timing is Everything

Oregon Safeway shooting: Multiple people dead after gunman opens fire at grocery store… The suspect opened fire in the parking lot with an AR-15 style rifle. [More]

Just in time for the ballot measure!

Note the suspect hasn’t been ID’d yet. My beef with gun advocates who say don’t “give him fame” is that by leaving him anonymous, interested parties can ignore/clean up internet tracks when they have someone who doesn’t fit an exploitable narrative.

Much Ado about Nothing

“Polymer80 is on the front lines of protecting the Second Amendment rights of all Americans right now,” Kelley told ProPublica. “That’s not a brag. It’s just the reality because we’ve become the whipping boy for emotionally driven government policy.” [More]

Say you could retrieve every gun involved here. How many crimes would be solved and killers would be taken off the streets if you could trace their serial numbers to their lawful owners?

Kathy Hochul: Talking to Your ‘Neighbors Online’ Now Part of Firearm Background Check [More]

I don’t suppose you’re entitled to see what they said, and maybe use the transcript in a libel suit? If so, do they need to be warned that anything they say can and will be used against them in a court of law?

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

‘Good moral character’ requirement in NY concealed carry law has racist roots, 2A groups say [More]

All disarmament has always been about the ruling majority keeping a beaten minority submissive and obedient, enslaved, or dead.

We’re the Only Ones Blitzing Enough

During the Illinois State Police’s firearm enforcement blitz this summer, 295 people in southern Illinois were brought into compliance with Illinois gun laws. [More]

A blitzkrieg. How appropriate.

Disarmed by the latest confiscation made possible by FOID? No worries, ISP says you can always put your fingers down your throat and vomit!

Good thing for them they don’t have to try to get the guns from all those people who didn’t fill out no damn cards!

Connected Insiders Signal Contempt and Lethal Intent for ‘Traditional Americans’

Talk about an inside player with connections to the major players in both parties. He has basically had access to everything. And in his “professional” opinion, Republicans are more dangerous, more violent, more extreme, and more contemptible than, ISIS or Al Qaeda. That’s to say more terroristic, and if that’s to be believed, more deserving of coordinated black ops search and destroy targeting and drone strikes, and more incarceration under Patriot Act “rules.” [More]

Yes, of course, they want to take your guns. And it’s got nothing to do with “commonsense safety” unless you’re talking about for tyrants.

The Wrong Questions

In his order on Tuesday, Welte wrote: “The rather speculative risk of harm to the plaintiffs, on the one hand, does not outweigh the harm to the ATF’s interest in law enforcement and public safety, on the other.” [More]

Spoken like a true judicial fascist, all the while avoiding the real issues. Who recommended him to Trump?

This is what happens when confirmation hearings are treated more like pre-coronation ceremonies than job interviews.

Sensitive, Aren’t We?

In response to the Supreme Court’s ruling, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) on July 1 signed a law that criminalizes the concealed carry of guns in airports, houses of worship, Times Square and other sensitive places, prompting a swift legal challenge. Gun Owners of America is one of several plaintiffs who are urging a federal judge in Syracuse to block the New York law before it takes effect on Sept. 1. [More]

Not satisfied with a patchwork quilt of “gun-free zones,” Hochul & Co. are going for a Rubik’s Cube.

I see Stephen Stamboulieh got ink.

So Much for ‘Shall Not be Infringed’…

ATF has posted the following corrections to the Final Rule which appeared in the Federal Register on April 26, 2022. The Final Rule, with these corrections, is effective in two days, August 24, 2022. This set of updates provides technical corrections to the Final Rule. [More]

What do you think the Founders would have had to say about this?

He Must Be One of Us, Right?

Joe Rogan slams Hollywood hypocrisy: ‘Anti-gun, but they promote guns more than any other media on the planet’ [More]

Says the @$$hole who said he was voting for Bernie.

This Bernie.

This Rogan character is turning out to be a bigger fraud than obnoxious carnival barker Michael Savage. I’m just not getting why so many self-identified “conservatives” are enamored of the guy.

Past Time if You Ask Me…

We need the South Carolina Republican Party to censure Graham for his sell out. [More]

This is for more than just “registered Republicans” and Palmetto State gun owners because what this guy does affects us all. The email option isn’t the only way to reach them. Pick one that works for you. And include others.

I’m starting with the head of the party.  And GOP National. And NRA

Like so

Maloney Baloney

The first, the Firearm Industry Fairness Act, mandates a new 20 percent tax on total revenue of firearm manufacturers who make MSRs, or the AR-15-style semiautomatic rifles she erroneously calls “assault weapons” … The second bill, the Firearm Industry Crime and Trafficking Accountability Act, would make it a requirement that every firearm manufacturer create a tracking database system that allows them to track crimes committed with guns they have sold. [More]

Here’s the takeaway:

The bill has no chance of becoming law.

So here’s why she’s doing it.

The evil old rhymes-with-blunt doesn’t care whose rights she tramples on as long as it gets her power over others.

Not that Nadler’s any better

For That Day When the Collar Comes Off

On Monday, ATF announced Ruling 2022-1, signed August 17, 2022, authorizing FFLs to retain an electronic version of each ATF Form 4473, provided the method of digital storage and conditions of the ruling are met. Retail FFLs seeking to eliminate paper and take advantage of the new ruling must comply with ATF Ruling 2016-2 and subsequent rulings. [More]

Yeah, Pamela Scott says her phone is full

Loss Leaders

Everytown took a MASSIVE financial hit in 2020, used most of their donations to fund salaries – Everytown’s 501c4 Action Fund for 2020 is now available, and it’s a good one lol. First, they took a 75% hit in revenue… [More]

It’s the “pandemic,” they say.

Yeah, that’s the ticket.

And here’s the “Support Fund.”

So when do we start seeing some high-profile firings? Or will they keep heads to save face?
