A Change of Heart?

Judge Easterbrook then turned to the government’s position directly: “The United States contends that § 922(g)(4) is valid even with respect to persons who were never dangerous or who have recovered. That approach is hard to square with Heller, McDonald, Bruen, Rahimi, Hemani, and Wolford.” [More]

Considering what Easterbrook has said in the past, that’s an amazing turnaround.

Don’t Die for a Data Lie

Dramatics aside, it’s a known fact that any interactions with law enforcement, no matter how mundane, escalate the chances of a negative and potentially life-threatening outcome. Armed agents of the State with qualified immunity, taking someone by surprise over what is likely to be a bookkeeping error? [More]

So “false positives” have the potential to be much more than  inconvenient delays?

At least it’s bipartisan!

Rabb Rouser

Pennsylvania state and socialist Chris Rabb, the Democratic nominee for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District, has joined the growing chorus of Democrats denouncing the founding documents and core institutions in the country on our 250th anniversary. The Democratic socialist is running unopposed for Congress and will almost certainly be a member of Congress after November. [More]

Naturally, he wants your guns.

Everybody knows why, right?

The Irreconcilable Difference

However, there is no reason to necessarily conclude the supreme court will decide this issue in the affirmative, especially with Barrett and Roberts having to be persuaded. [More]

They have shown a proclivity for leaving things to the states.

That would result in the greatest Constitutional crisis of our time, and set the trigger for the avalanche.

A Spree Grows in Brooklyn

Giffordsny

A masked gunman opened fire on a backyard barbecue in Brooklyn around 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, wounding eight people. The victims include four boys aged 6, 7, 12, and 14 and a 21-year-old woman who remains hospitalized after being shot in the chest. While there was no argument prior to the shooting, police are investigating a potential link to a confirmed gang-related homicide. [More]

Facing Legal Obstacles To Gun Bans, Prohibitionists Shift The Narrative

AR 15 Magazines iStock

It’s good, a victory actually, that people who would like to ban guns – and that, of course, is their ultimate goal – have a sense that it’s not going to happen politically, at least in the near term. But just because they talk about “progress” without prohibitions doesn’t mean they’ve given up on the idea. [More]

Just because “progressive” policies have enabled a subset of violent and resentful morons with a sense of unearned entitlement, anger management issues, and poor impulse control is no reason to make demands against the rest of us being able to repel them.

A New Hope

Safnew

The U.S. Supreme Court has granted two of the Second Amendment Foundation’s (SAF) petitions for a writ certiorari in both  Viramontes v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins, the organization’s challenges to the bans on so-called “assault weapons” in Illinois and Connecticut. [More]

Injunction Blocks Enforcement of Virginia’s “Assault Weapon” Ban

554536 injunction blocks enforcement va gun ban hero 1200x800

Lancaster County Circuit Court Judge John Martin issued a preliminary injunction on June 25 in the Crump v. Katz complaint against Senate Bill 749, Virginia’s “assault weapon” and magazine ban, blocking statewide enforcement until Dec. 31. The law was set to go into effect July 1. [More]

This summary was submitted before the news broke that NRA won a second injunction.

Stake Driven Through Vampire Laws’ Hearts

The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a Hawaii law that makes it a crime for gun owners to bring their guns onto private property that is open to the public unless they have the property owner’s specific consent. In Wolford v. Lopez, by a vote of 6-3, the justices agreed with a group of Maui residents with concealed-carry permits that the law violates the Second Amendment’s guarantee of the right to bear arms. Thursday’s decision will have an impact not only in Hawaii, but also in four other states – California, Maryland, New York, and New Jersey – with similar laws. [More]

They got another one right!

Maybe I should ease up on John Roberts…? Until next time…?

On Again/Off Again

“The Trump Administration is fighting as hard as it can to continue violating the Second Amendment rights of millions of Americans. Even though the Fifth Circuit already held that these bans are unconstitutional, the government is trying to limit the decision’s reach so it can keep disarming peaceable adults across the country. This is how the United States government celebrates 250 years of American independence—by acting like the tyrants we defeated. [More]

A Lawler Unto Herself

And as a veteran, we should believe in the rightness of her citizen disarmament agenda, that is if we want to ignore the false authority logical fallacy and forget that one of our greatest “war heroes” was also the man who’s name became synonymous with being a traitor…

So we need to get behind Mike Lawler, right, the guy “the gun lobby thanks with campaign cash“?

You know, the guy who wants to ban “undetectable firearms,” joined other Vichycons in funding Biden’s Office of Anti-Gun Strategy who went on national TV and bragged about expanding “red flag laws”, and has proven himself to be an embedded enemy on numerous occasions…?

But…but…but politics is the art of the possible and the perfect is the enemy of the good, those who have been leading us down the path of “compromise” (aka preemptive surrender) will object. If he doesn’t win, a really, really anti-gun Democratic Socialist will!

So what’s she going to do? Ban your guns? And you’d obey?

See? The Second Amendment is still working.

How pathetic of a guncuck would you have to be to vote for this serial political adulterer?

DOJ enforcing the Second Amendment…

Imagine that. Now imagine NRA “loyalists” — in California of all places — being so against it they resort to spreading insults and lies and blocking the truth.
