Locking Arms

Georgia judge declares city ordinance banning guns in unlocked cars as ‘unenforceable’ – Mayor Van Johnson says the city will continue enforcing the rule, as the judge’s decision likely only applies to the defendant [More]

Why some feel compelled to leave guns in their cars is left unaddressed. But by “enforcing” the mayor means authorizing men with guns to ignore state preemption and use violence to take citizens hostage.

Looks like Van the Man doesn’t much like the First Amendment, either. That’s a lot easier when you can ignore the Second with impunity.

Speaking of locking up guns, I wonder how many people dumb enough to vote for this guy think the cable goes around, not through…?

Survey SAYS…

Official Everytown for Gun Safety Poll … Should Congress ban assault weapons? [More]

I wish those saying “Absolutely” would flesh out what they estimate an attempt will cost in human lives lost to “gun violence” and how that compares to reality…

They won’t tally your response unless you give them contact info, so I resurrected a tactic from the old Million Moon March.

I wonder if ATF’s number takes texts?

Just in Time for Veteran’s Day

Why a federal concealed carry gun bill must be stopped… Anthony Swofford is the author of “Jarhead: A Marine’s Chronicle of the Gulf War and Other Battles.” He served in a Marine Corps scout sniper platoon during the Persian Gulf War and is special faculty in the Department of English at Carnegie Mellon University. [More]

Once again we see the false authority logical fallacy, as if his military experience qualifies him to second-guess the Founders. 

Tell us you don’t understand the oath you took without telling us you don’t understand the oath you took. Being a “war hero” doesn’t override that.

What Price Freedom?

AK Loyalists Won’t Admit It, but the Platform Might Be Finished in America… Ammo Prices: The AK’s Last Big Selling Point Is Gone… 5.45×39 has basically dead [sic]in the USA, thanks to import bans and dried-up stockpiles [More]

For some reason this reminds me of an argument I had as a boy: Who would win? Batman or Tarzan? The real question is “Why, in the land of the Second Amendment, are there “import bans”?

Seems to me that Trump could trump Biden. Especially since American gun owners are being punished for the alleged crimes of unknown someones else: “It is believed that Russia is the only known country to have used Novichok and the nerve agent is only available to Russian state authorities.” [Emphasis added]

Take the ammo first, due process later?

And then there’s GCA 68, with “sporting purpose” exemptions for import bans.

Who makes that determination? And who’s their boss?

While gun owners are arguing over how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, when it comes to costs responsible for the divide they’re missing the main cause. And you’d think Trump, getting hammered on the economy, would find it useful to give his biggest supporters a price break.

So…. where is the Second Amendment Task Force on this? Where are the “gun groups”? Then again, if they change it the antis would have a field day when one of their constituents shot up the next “gun-free zone” with imported AK rounds.

Is that what we’ll accept as an impediment to our rights that we can’t get around? Because there will be more bloodbaths of opportunity as long as enforced victim pools exist, and if we cede ground here, they’ll occupy it and them move in closer. To argue otherwise is to deny what everyone can see but some, on “both sides,” won’t admit.

Fearmongering in Local Democrat Flyer Highlights Need for Stronger Gun Voter Participation

A more honest political mailer would have simply admitted “Democrats would rather see you dead than armed.” [More]

Funny, how all the lies Democrats rely on are old, long-since exposed ones,

What, No Payback?

The City CONCEDED its ordinance violates state law.
Memphis admitted that every line of its handgun-carry ban, vehicle-storage rule, so-called “assault rifle” ban, and red-flag scheme is 100% illegal under Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1314. (Order pp. 3, 9–11) The Judge called the ordinance “DEAD AS A DOORNAIL.” The Chancellor wrote that “The Ordinance and those who proposed it engaged in ‘virtue signaling,’” but “the Ordinance is as dead as a proverbial doornail as a matter of Tennessee law.” (Order p. 6) Simply put, the Memphis ordinance is entirely unenforceable. [More]

So what will hold them accountable, make them pay, and discourage future in-your-face infringements?

The Silver Lining

NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani will become a National Anti-gun Force [More]

I hope he does.

Because so far, their most successful weapon has been to call citizen disarmament “commonsense gun safety,” and someone who wants to ban them all neutralizes another lie.

Maddeningly, there’s one other in-your-face position the gun groups still aren’t ready (are too craven) to exploit, undeniably spelled out in his acceptance speech, acknowledging the supporters giving power to his subversion:

I speak of Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican abuelas. Senegalese taxi drivers and Uzbek nurses. Trinidadian line cooks and Ethiopian aunties… And we will build a City Hall that stands steadfast alongside Jewish New Yorkers and does not waver in the fight against the scourge of antisemitism. Where the more than 1 million Muslims know that they belong – not just in the five boroughs of this city, but in the halls of power…New York will remain a city of immigrants: a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant.

Using the “single issue” excuse to deny the obvious needs to be seen for what it is and for what it enables.

What Other Rights Can States Ignore?

This is the last stop for Ballot Measure 114 on a state level. Given the makeup and history of the Oregon courts, it would be wise to not be too optimistic about the outcome. As usual, we hope we are wrong on this issue. And, keep in mind, that, irrespective of the outcome, the Oregon Legislature will continue to enact every possible impediment to gun ownership in Oregon even as it seeks to protect criminals and the violently mentally ill. [More]

If only we had a Justice Department committed to protecting unalienable rights from state and local abuses…

(Inter)National Treasure

“Because, I mean, I really believe that immigrants are our treasure and our strength, and they’re what make this country what it is,” Lakshmi added. [More]

Spoken like a UN “Goodwill Ambassador” born in India and let into this country who wants to make us less like America and more like the $#!+hole she left.

Oh, look, she wants the government to disarm us, too.

Shh… don’t tell the “single issue” gun groups!

I trust readers here need no introduction to Alan Beck…?

Here’s just one way costs accumulate.

And this is what the state can afford to bolster rights denial because it has comparatively unlimited tax plunder to draw from.

A Perfect Understanding

The US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has upheld a ban on possessing guns in parks, while completely misunderstanding basic principles of law. [Watch]

So their decision “contradicts SCOTUS”? And we’re sure it’s because they “misunderstand”?

I know what would happen if I went against a judge’s orders.

What will happen to them?
