Notes from the Resistance
DOGE enters ATF with mandate to slash gun regulations [More]
Not to say any reduction isn’t a good thing, but the big infringements will still be in place. I’d be interested in seeing an analysis on how many will really be affected, and for how long, since rules change with administrations. And let’s make sure we’re not just reaching into a different pocket before uncorking the champagne.

Unlike many Republicans, we are not taking a victory lap. In spite of the dump of press releases from Republican legislators, Oregon’s law abiding gun owners, once again, got screwed while criminals and crazy people got a big boost. [More]
The place was left a mess with no one allowed to clean up.
Hawaii prison guard gets eight years for sexually abusing inmates [More]
In the Kapu tradition and “Spirit of Aloha” …
This is the type of environment gun prohibitionists want to throw you in for disobeying their orders to disarm.
21 students and teachers were murdered in Uvalde because Texas doesn’t have a red flag law or fund prevention of mass shootings. 21 children drowned at Camp Mystic (11 girls and one counselor still missing) because they didn’t get a flood warning. [More]
Recalling the truism, it’s a different story but the exact same blood dancing plot:
Self-righteous mother_ers who demand infringements instead of proven protective measures share culpability for every death.
And don’t forget the hate-filled race hustlers!
Speaking of being the same, the common threads are citizen disarmament and racism, foundational pillars of the Democrat Party.

And don’t forget pediatricians, the specialty that produces the most gunquacks.
Missouri appeals court keeps McCloskey criminal records sealed… Former Gov. Mike Parson pardoned the couple in August 2021. Mark McCloskey immediately sued to get the guns back. But courts ruled that although a pardon eliminates a conviction, it does not “extinguish his guilt or the consequences flowing from his guilty plea”… Tuesday’s ruling upheld that decision over the objection of prosecutors, who said the couple remained a threat to public safety.[More]
They forgot to put “Democrat” in front of “courts” and “prosecutors.”

Picture I took in Ukraine a few months ago. 50 dollar over the counter Suppressors. The upper end ones were about $425 at the time. [More]
Now note how many gun-grabbers here in the land of the Second Amendment who make up all kinds of lies to deny this to you have a “#Slava Ukraini” hashtag in their social media profiles.
They were all silent when the biggest case for an armed populace opened up before their eyes, too.
Republicans, take heed. Not every gun owner voice out there is a “Next Best Win” apologist, and you need all of us if you’re not going to blow the midterms, which may be a done deal after this.
But won’t that mean the Democrats will gain the power to take our guns?
Does it?
Flesh out what that would look like and we can start looking at likely responses, flash points, and potentialities.
He argued that citizens’ ability to defend themselves may be compromised as well, pointing to a tweet from Mamdani saying, “We need to ban all guns.” [More]
See, none of this “commonsense gun safety law” crap, just a straight up admission of what he really wants to do…
And what he’s done here is taken the “I respect the Second Amendment BUT” lie away from every politician who has endorsed him, as well as the Democrat party as a whole. I don’t see any Moms Demand or Giffords posters yet, but I dare them to back him, because that will take the lie away from them, too.
Hey, if New Yorkers elect him and the Muslims carry out another mass casualty event, what will my obligation be to consider it an attack on America warranting a response I support? Actually, I’m not sure what it is now…
Amnesty launched as part of mission to halve knife crime – Young people across the country are being urged to surrender bladed weapons including ninja swords to help prevent further loss of young lives to knife crime. [More]
So, blame inanimate objects “and take a public health approach to violence reduction,” all the while making it a punishable crime to post about the real problem on social media.

CTRL+P(ain) : far-right and 3D weapons, a new frontier of political violence – The incident reflects an alarming global trend: the rise of right-wing digital extremism and the increasing access to technology to manufacture undetectable weapons. This dangerous combination worries security agencies, as it escapes state control and can be easily replicated anywhere in the world. [More]
So, it sounds like it would be in everybody’s interest if you stopped trying to shove collectivist controls down everybody’s craws, admitted “gun control” is an unworkable non-starter, and focused on securing the Blessings of Liberty…
Just a thought…

Rhode Island’s Democratic-controlled state House on Friday approved legislation that would ban the sale and manufacturing of many semiautomatic rifles commonly referred to as assault weapons. The proposal now heads to the desk of Democratic Gov. Dan McKee, who said in a post on the social platform X on Friday evening that he plans to sign the bill into law. [More]
Dan does have his priorities…

Today, we’re detailing nine new House bills and one new Senate bill that BFA opposes — though “new” is a stretch. These are largely the same ineffective measures rebranded with fresh bill numbers. [More]

The point of rehashing all this now is to remind younger gun owners that citizen disarmament and its resultant monopoly of violence, repackaged by the prohibitionists now as “commonsense gun safety laws,” has always been the goal. [More]
Don’t let meaningless slogans parroted by indignant useful idiots distract from the real motives of the cold intellects behind citizen disarmament.
