Too Little Too Late

While Ecuador recently loosened restrictions on civilians carrying firearms, it has done very little to make it easier for them to own. Citizens must submit to a lengthy permitting process that includes a certificate of skill in handling and using firearms, along with a drug test and psychological evaluation. To make matters worse, according to those familiar with the process, the issuance of a gun license could take anywhere from a few months to a year. Even after all that, civilians are limited to very specific types of pistols, revolvers, and shotguns. [More]

At what point do the incentives to survive outweigh the incentives to be “law-abiding”…?

Right in Character

‘I never fired a gun in school’: Adams denies story told in book he authored [More]

Ought to be easy enough to determine who’s lying.

Taking author credit for a book someone else wrote really is a good metaphor for being a Democrat politician taking credit for helping people using money someone else earned…

The Empire Strikes Back

After 2 Million FOID Card Holders Rebel Against Pritzker, Democrats Target Illinois Gun Owners’ Driver’s Licenses [More]

He’s altering the terms of the deal. Pray he does not alter them further.

Hey, what was the text, history and tradition of operating a private horse-drawn carriage on throughways at the time of the Founding…?

Checking Your Privilege

NFA still standing tells us we can’t rely on assumptions about rulings that say the state can’t tax a right. That said, these stupid, smirking cows have no idea of the elemental forces they’re tampering with…

Running Out the Clock

US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has decided to hear en banc the Bianchi v. Brown MD “assault weapon” ban case and, thus, prevent a likely favor 2A ruling from being issued by the three-judge panel of that court. [Watch]

And as I’ve said, if the Republicans blow the elections and Dems manage to change SCOTUS, we’ll get to see which side is more serious.

Democrats Offer Anti-Gun Insurrectionist in New York Special Election

And what’s worse is that while Suozzi showed he perfectly understands the ultimate last resort provision against tyranny behind the Second Amendment, he actively works to undermine it in his quest for power over the lives of his countrymen. [More]

Suozzi’s idea of “gun violence prevention” is to disarm you and me and start an armed uprising.

Correlation/Causation?

Did Loosening Gun Control Cause A Nationwide Drop In Homicides? [More]

I’m not sure this factors into predator decisions on whether a person looks like a victim or not. Let’s be careful with claims. Just because the other side does it doesn’t mean they won’t point and scream when “our side” does…

For now I’ll take “they didn’t go up.”

File this under “Further Study Justified.”

The March of Folly

Leaders of March For Our Lives Iowa led a crowd of about 300 students, activists, lawmakers and supporters in chants of “no more silence, end gun violence” and “enough is enough” that echoed through the Iowa Capitol rotunda Monday afternoon. [More]

Out of half-a-million students that’s all? How many were adults and how many were idiot children of idiot Democrats?

Of course this is shameless exploitation. What else would we expect from the Des Moines Register (Part of the USA Today network/a Gannett Publication)?

On This We Can Agree

It is fully within our power to stop this epidemic. [More]

Absolutely. Just not by doing anything this evil dotard’s handlers are lying to us about…

Starting with, it’s not an “epidemic.”

Wake me when the “school to grave pipeline” is plugged.

Die große Lüge

In court records, news reports, confessions of perps who promoted it, there never was any collusion between Mr. Trump, Vladimir Putin and our two nations. It was a lie. A big lie. Some people still believe the lie, probably always will, their fear and hatred so strong facts don’t matter. [More]

Who doesn’t see how this dovetails perfectly with what Drudge is pulling?

Identity Politics Allow ‘Anti-Gun’ Mayor to Flaunt Corrupt ‘Entitlement’

As long as identity communities continue to reward corruption with power, they will continue to suffer the consequences that come from blaming others for their own poor choices. [More]

The problems are “systemic,” alright, but not in the way Democrat race hustlers would have us believe.

Gunkies in Need of a Fix

In defining what constitutes a public health emergency, the governor asserts that both gun violence and drug abuse “comfortably fall within” the category because of extremely dangerous conditions posed by weapons and toxic chemical agents posing an imminent threat to many New Mexico residents. The temporary orders don’t violate constitutional rights, she said. [More]

That’s because she’s an unqualified liar with a subversive agenda.

I’d think if Democrats are going to treat “gun dependency” like they do addiction, they’d have dispensaries where you could pick up free ones so you wouldn’t have to share…

The New Deniers

Angela Ferell-Zaballa, executive director of the gun-grab group Moms Demand Action, told the Advocate, “Extremists often try to muddy the waters by blaming our gun violence crisis on mental health or gender identity, when often people with these lived realities are most likely to be victims of gun violence, rather than perpetrators of it.” [More]

Forget manifestos and delusions! It’s the guns!

Short Form Treason

The April 2023 email sent by a CBP supervisor to a “master list” of 500 Border Patrol agents calls on officials to decrease the number of interview questions for Chinese migrants arrested after illegally crossing into the country from 40 to five. [More]

And we even give you the answers we’re looking for before the test!

Rigorous!

From the government that makes citizens fill out one of these and not get flagged before grudgingly giving permission to partially exercise a fundamental right…

So much for “universal background checks”…

Liz Cheney’s Chronic Trump Derangement Syndrome Ultimately Betrays Gun Owners

Voters paying attention could have seen Cheney’s malleable self-serving loyalties coming by the company she keeps. In 2009 she partnered with Bill Kristol to found Keep America Safe, a nonprofit advocate for Bush–Cheney national security positions. Kristol is the Never Trumper who has called Democrats “foolish” and “cowardly” for not demanding more infringements, declaring “I don’t think [Americans] have a right to semi-automatic, quasi-machine guns that can shoot a hundred bullets at a time,” and asserting the “lazy” white working class should be replaced by “new Americans.” [More]

Yet another reason why gun owners trusting NRA grades without doing their own due diligence so often end up feeling swindled and used…

We’re the Only Ones Careless Enough

They have no intention of giving it back to you unless forced to anyway…

If they can deny your fundamental rights and take your guns from you without due process, what do they care? It’s just been established they can practically get away with anything.

Imams Demand Action

Republicans have reacted with prayers following the Perry school shooting but no proposals to change gun laws. [More]

Whereas Democrats reacted before the facts were known by demanding “universal background checks,” “assault weapon” and magazine bans, and a host of other irrelevant infringements that wouldn’t have made a damn bit of difference– the loser even used a Biden-approved pump-action Fudd gun.

I wonder what the owners of Al Jazeera would do with such a troubled teenager in their country

Or with Karine Jean Pierre, for that matter…
