CO Democrats Selective in Which Rights They Shred

New Concealed Carry Law Takes Effect July 1 – Plus a Lib Bonus: Vehicle Weapons Now Must Be Locked Up [More]

I don’t suppose being forced to take an eight-hour course and pass a written exam to vote is in the cards…

Coloradans take note. You’ll find no more staunch defender of all rights from government abuses than Mr. Gramlich & Co.

You can subscribe for hard copy or online editions. It sure beats the DSM.

If They Can Do It to Him…

A New Jersey attorney who was denied a gun permit is suing Springfield Township and its police department in federal district court, alleging they violated his right to bear arms because of pro-Palestinian social media posts…. In records that Saadeh obtained through the state Open Public Records Act, police wrote that granting the permit renewal “would not be in the interest of the public health, safety or welfare because the person is found to be lacking the essential character of temperament necessary to be entrusted with a firearm.” [More]

Don’t stop there. Sue them for libel.

And no, I’ve changed no positions. I’m only going on facts presented and extrapolating from there while channeling my inner Thomas More.

We’re the Only Ones Diagnostic Enough

When gun owners apply for concealed carry permits in Mecklenburg County, sheriff’s office background checks have sometimes turned up sensitive health information, including whether a person has had an abortion or has a sexually transmitted disease… The sheriff’s office, through a spokesperson, said the agency has no control over what information health providers choose to send. In a statement, MCSO said the records sent are dependent on the provider’s discretion. [More]

They can’t specify the information they want? And the providers don’t have policies and procedures in place approved by their risk managment departments to only provide what is required by law?

And why the hell is this required by law anyway?

It’s Showtime!

The U.S. Supreme Court has distributed a third Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) case, B&L Productions v. Newsom, for conference on Friday, Jan. 24. The case challenges California’s statutes which ban gun shows on state-owned property. Because the gun shows at issue are not only opportunities to view and purchase firearms, but also for like-minded individuals to assemble and share ideas, the case presents questions about both the First and Second Amendments. [More]

Having followed this issue for many years, I say apathetic gun show attendees own their share of the mess they’ve allowed. They’re no doubt part of the majority that don’t contribute to efforts like this to clean up that mess.

Judge John L. Sinatra Jr. Has Yuge ‘But’

Based on the record and arguments in this case. the right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the Second Amendment would require this Court—as counseled by the Supreme Court’s Second Amendment decisions—to declare the parks issue in Plaintiffs’ favor.’ But… [More]

A small concession aside, the “but” is all you need to know.

That and he’s one of those Trump judges we’ve been led to believe would turn things around.

Fitting the Profile

“I’ve been suicidal for a long time, and when I saw that the leaked draft, it made me upset and then it made me want to, I don’t know,” Roske said. “I was under the delusion that I could make the world a better place by killing him.” Roske said another motivating factor was that he heard the Supreme Court was going to loosen gun restrictions, which would make it easier for people to acquire guns. [More]

So… a typical gun-grabber…?

Schadenfreude X 2

Layla Law-Gisiko, president of the City Club of New York, which sued Gov. Kathy Hochul to implement the unpopular toll for motorists driving into Manhattan, said she was left bruised and battered after the Saturday afternoon attack at the 23rd Street station. [More]

So, someone who wants to “make gun control an absolute PRIORITY???!!!” found herself defenseless in a situation she wants to force more people into?

I’m trying to find some sympathy. I know I left it lying around here someplace…

I don’t suppose the French or Tunisians want her back…?

Parting Shots

National Firearms Commerce and Trafficking Assessment (NFCTA): Protecting America from Trafficked Firearms – Volume Four [More]

That’s one way to describe imposing unconstitutional infringements using force of arms…

Dettlebach just can’t resist being an irritant for as long as he can.

So… what can/should we expect from the new guy?

An Innocent Man

Major 2A win in Ohio involving an individual indicted for possessing a firearm while under indictment for crime of which he was never convicted. [Watch]

If I’m reading this right, (Republican) prosecutor Melissa Powers evidently believes Ohioans elected a Republican majority so that she could deny the Second Amendment to a man whose robbery indictment was dismissed.

That’ll be useful to know if she ever seeks higher office.

Playing with Fire

California wildfires: Outrage as looters slammed for trying to ‘steal from residents’… The identities of the suspects and details of their alleged crimes have not yet been released. [More]

Why not? What’s the politically inconvenient motive behind authorities not sharing known information?

This is why I’m against not naming names.

I don’t suppose — this being L.A. — a homeowner could just shoot them…?

Tangentially-Related UPDATES:

And, of course, dinosaur DSM is blaming the fires on “climate change.”

It’s not like any alternative explanations suggest themselves…

Hint: It’s Not ‘Climate Change.’

Take the Guns First

Karina’s Bill advocates for the use of ex parte hearings to obtain orders of protection, immediately triggering a warrant to confiscate the subject’s firearms and ammunition… What can/will President Trump do? [More]

I think I just found my next article…

The Bottom Line

Ohio Lt. Gov. Jon Husted has emerged as a late and leading contender to succeed Vice President-elect JD Vance in the Senate, three Republicans familiar with the process say. [More]

I have a bad feeling about this:

Husted did not clarify the difference between what he supports and a red flag law. “The bottom line is Governor DeWine and I support second amendment rights,” said Husted. “We support freedom loving Americans who want to exercise those rights, but we also want to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and those who are not legally allowed to own them.”

We know that doesn’t work.

Aligning himself with DeWine is a big red flag in itself.

Paging Tommy Lee…

Montenegro Considers ‘Complete’ Gun Ban After 12 Shot Dead [More]

You know what? Montenegro? I don’t give a damn. Let ’em. Fools.

And you know going after the “illegal” ones means they’re mostly going to persecute nonviolent citizens who want to protect themselves in spite of all the bull$h!+ restrictions.

Speaking of Much Ado About Nothing

H.R. 129: To abolish the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives… 2% chance of being enacted [More]

Told ya.

Just more self-serving noise that distracts from doing the doable.

And I note there’s no text yet, but here’s one reality you can take to the bank: The only thing that will change is the men behind the masks enforcing NFA, GCA, Hughes, Lautenberg, and all the other infringements.

Much Ado About Nothing

Cornyn and senators tell ATF director no new policies before Trump takes over [More]

They know any new rule will require a comment period extending into the new administration, which can kill it, but it’s a way to make gun owners think they’re doing something for them.

But enforce existing Intolerable Acts, right, Mr. Bipartisan Safer Communities Act?

And furthermore…

The Cognitive Dissonance… It Burns

The national Liberal Gun Club said it has received thousands of training requests since the election, more than in all of 2023. A spokesperson for the group estimated that roughly a quarter were from LGBTQ people. In Philadelphia, in the waning weeks of the year, residents peppered local queer Facebook groups with questions about guns and training. The local chapter of the Socialist Rifle Association, a leftist analogue to the National Rifle Association, said it saw a surge in paid memberships; [More]

Constitutionalists won’t be the ones to put them in concentration camps. Those would be the violence monopolists stupid leftists vote for.

Military Gun Training in Polish Schools

Unlike in the land of the Second Amendment, where gun prohibitionists who demand avoidance and ignorance label themselves as “commonsense gun safety advocates,” the training is embraced by educators, politicians and parents.  [More]

Compare and contrast to ignorant and cowardly anti-gun “educators” here…
