The Glock is Ticking

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.

You Don’t Say!

Poll: Most Democrats Say Illegal Aliens Should Remain in U.S. and Eventually Apply for Citizenship [More]

We know why.

What we don’t know is why the gun groups are deliberately ignoring the threat, and why prominent gun influencers are equating concern over that with white supremacy and/or minimizing it all by saying just wait a generation or two, as if the culture those generations will grow up in won’t have changed, and as if we have a generation or two for them to come around once a prohibitionist supermajority controls things.

Why I’m the only 0ne taking them on is also, frankly, a disappointment.

If Guns Could Speak

If guns could speak they would say nothing of solidarity or community; they would articulate only fear of the stranger and rage at life’s tenuous hold. [More]

But they can’t, can they?

I’ve talked before about Academia .edu because I get a laugh over how often a guy who was usually on the wrong end of the Dean’s List is cited there. This 10-year-old article was featured in a recent email they sent me, and it’s illustrative of the ivory tower mindset that controls monolithic narrative promulgators that represent themselves as “institutions of higher learning.”

ATF Director Robert Cekada Gets Softball Treatment on Pistol Braces from Colion Noir

Many “conservatives” revere any Trump administration policy as if Moses himself had carried it down from Mount Sinai. [More]

If I go by my own experience, Darwin can expect angry missives from MAGA über alles types demanding to know if he would rather have Kamala and canceling subscriptions in 3…2..1…

Getting Warmer…

The US Supreme Court decision in Hemani offers great support to the 2A challenges to Virginia gun ban laws. [Watch]

He’s right when he observes “shall not be infringed” must be viewed and argued in the context of what The Framers would have considered to be infringements when it comes to “dangerous and unusual.”

I’d like to see him acknowledge that “in common use at the time” needs to include arms that standing army soldiers deploy with, not just what’s commercially popular, because otherwise, the machinegun ban will continue and any new developments in arms technology will be withheld from We the People.

And the bottom line is, prohibition does not work in a society that has rights, and you need to amp up the totalitarianism to where it does. If someone can’t be trusted with a gun

Curtis v. Katz Media Update

The question on everyone’s mind: Will the case be appealed? They have 15 days. He would like to and will give the matter serious consideration. [More]

I’ve updated “Judge Rules Against Injunction in Militia Challenge to VA Gun Ban” with a synopsis and transcript of yesterday’s Zoom meeting.

Nothing Exceeds Like Excess

ATF Director: Adamiak’s sentence “excessive” [More]

As previously noted, he’s missing the point.

But what I want to focus on is this business of ATF Firearm Enforcement Officer Jeffrey Bodell spreading falsehoods under oath to affect trial outcomes, and how is that anything but prejudicial perjury? Everybody realizes ATF has been getting away with that for years right?

But don’t take my word for it:

Finally, Some Honest Science /s

Valeriefousheegiffords

Today, Congresswoman Valerie Foushee (NC-04) introduced the Gun Violence Prevention and Public Safety Database Act of 2026, legislation to direct the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to establish a publicly accessible federal database of gun violence and public safety research. [More]

To the tune of five million smackers

We know what happened last time CDC had carte blanche

There is no Marxist-enabling traitor or useful idiot Giffords, Everytown, and Brady won’t back, is there?

Prognosis:


1% chance of being enacted

That’s assuming Republicans don’t blow it, and you know them.

An alliance of firearms dealers and Second Amendment advocates sued Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis over a law authorizing warrantless searches of gun sales records. [More]

And if a Republican tried to do this with abortion or minor gender reassignment records…?

It really does give an insight into the totalitarian mind of Democrats in power.

Judge Rules Against Injunction in Militia Challenge to VA Gun Ban

Court Judge Pistol iStock

In a ruling issued Thursday, the Spotsylvania Circuit Court denied a request for preliminary injunction in the Curtis v. Katz challenge to Virginia’s semiautomatic firearm/magazine ban. [More]

Even though the judge acknowledges “irreparable harm” to the Plaintiffs, he thinks more damage will be done if gun-banning Democrats don’t get their way.

The Case We’re Waiting For

The hearing has been held on Curtis v. Katz, the Virginia Constitution Article I, Section 13-based militia challenge to the “assault weapon” ban.

I’m not finding results yet on Google News search, but have been able to find case progress by going to VA Courts, selecting the Circuit Court Case Information link, picking Spotsylvania Circuit Court from the drop down menu, and entering CL26002454-00 in the Case Number field.

That really doesn’t tell us anything I haven’t written about, but there is a link for Case Documents that shows all the filings from May 19 through to today, which unfortunately don’t open up to show us the details.

There’s also a Reddit discussion that seems as up to date as anything.

I’ll keep looking and if you know anything please inform us via Comments, below.

I should know more for sure tomorrow, as I’ve been invited to a Zoom press call with the counsel of record and others at 1 Eastern.

Time to Show the Servants Who’s in Charge

Horry County HOA bans firearms from shared spaces, raising questions about gun owner rights [More]

“The new rule set by CAMS Management”…? These “Executive Leadership Team” goofballs?

When I was HOA president (ending the reign of OCD under Witless and Titless), we directed the management company, not the other way around.

“Vibrant” and “Diverse” are all you need to know. That and “Comments are turned off.”

I’d think you could make the argument that, as a quasi governmental organization with board elections, HOA rules are subordinate to state law. Residents who care about their rights should get statements from the police and sheriff on if they will enforce the rule.
