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…

Three Thousand Tyrants

With ‘the best friend gun owners have ever had in the White House’ to return, gun-safety groups eye state level actions [More]

Everybody remembers the Benjamin Martin quote, right?

Which is exactly why this needs to be a priority:

Imagine now the Department of Justice under an actual Second Amendment advocate, and what it could do fighting infringements and prohibitionist lawfare waged by states with unlimited tax war chests in tandem with Astroturf prohibitionist groups funded by antigun elites. Right now, the costs to defend against these innumerable assaults on all levels are borne by gun rights groups and members of mostly modest means who can only support a fraction of what is needed. That equation could be turned on its head.

If it’s not, we’ll know our best friend conned us and our “gun rights leaders” never asked him for it.

The Silent Horror

Facebook and Instagram Ads Push Gun Silencers Disguised as Car Parts – A network of Facebook pages has been advertising “fuel filters” that are actually meant to be used as silencers, which are heavily regulated by US law. Even US military officials are concerned. [More]

Mehrotra, eh…?

I keep going back to the last paragraph.

And Wired being ultimately controlled by the same billionaire who profits from Teen Vogue’s anal sex tips for teens

Why do I have the feeling that if fuel filters were being used for something else it wouldn’t be a story?

Not That I Expect an Answer…

The Finest Tyranny Money Can Buy

Says the guy who’s so rich and connected his armed bodyguards can ignore foreign disarmament edicts when he travels…

Did someone say “pitchforks“?

Aren’t they the weapon of choice in hell?

Just When You Thought You’d Read the Stupidest Thing on the Internet…

Just I thought Mazie Hirono had claimed the prize

You overprivileged lefties are free to leave any time you want — but you keep breaking your promises.

Since all she does is lie, why wouldn’t we believe she lied for Monsanto?

Who Will Guard the Guardians?

Guardian Angels resume NYC subway patrols for first time since 2020 after shocking arson murder [More]

Pinkley’s question comes to mind.

Followed by “With what?”

How worthy of protection are people who vote for their own disarmament and then expect other men, also disarmed by the edicts they demand, to save them?

Cut and Run

What was the first clue that this person is mentally ill? And if someone has proven they can’t be trusted with a knife, what the hell are they doing out?

It’s Only ‘Commonsense’

Now, in the closing chapter of Schmidt’s journey from judicial infamy to political ignominy, he has chosen to flip off Portland voters by attempting to illegally set up early releases for a rogue’s gallery of murderers, rapists, and thugs. [More]

So naturally he was endorsed by the more disarmed victims lobby:

You Know My Suffragette City

Firearms Ownership Is As Feminist As Feminism Gets [More]

Their readers aren’t the ones who need convincing.

I still think Ranjit’s got some ‘splainin’ to do about a major threat he not only ignores, but dismisses.

And Amy Swearer-endorsed red flag laws are also as feminist as applied feminism gets.

Today’s Five-Minute Activism

On the way back from my routine doctor visit my wife and I stopped in at the supermarket to pick up dinner fixings for tonight ( I make a very good Italian sausage and peppers if I say so myself), and one of the things I usually check is the magazine stand to see if the new issue of Firearms News is on display yet.

Someone moved magazines from other sections and placed them to cover most of the gun mags. It’s not the first time I’ve noticed and set things right.

I can just imagine the bitter, self-righteous, indignant type that has no clue what this says about her as a human being, and instead perversely justifies this to herself and other frustrated cud chewers. And yeah, I just made assumptions drawing on stereotypes. Change my mind.

The thought strikes: In addition to the other resolutions, why not make a point of checking when you’re in the store and setting things right?
