Tangentially-Related UPDATE
East St. Louis ‘Wear Orange Day’ honors gun violence victims [More]
And to show they’re serious, they’re adding a new name to the list.

Ecclesiastes 1:9
Virginia’s central argument is that Article I, Section 13 of the Virginia Constitution is not an individual Second Amendment-style right at all. According to the Commonwealth, Section 13 is a “collective, militia-tethered right,” meaning the right to keep and bear arms is tied to militia service rather than individual self-defense. [More]
There is no new thing under the sun.
And Opposite Day “progressives” keep coming back with the same tired, old, debunked revisionist lies.
Sympathy for the Devil
Rob Reiner’s son Nick fights for $1.5M trust fund access to bankroll high-powered murder trial defense [More]
Give the poor kid a break. He’s an orphan.
And that’s mighty big of his attorney.
Looks like someone focused on the wrong tool.
Identity Politics
And when in the hands of the “Only Ones,” they identify as “patrol rifles.”
And everyone who believes in the Second Amendment should identify as a “commonsense gun safety law advocate.”

Houses of the Unholy
Does Your Church Advocate Against Your Second Amendment Rights? [More]
Is your “faith leader” a false prophet?
Are you prepared to wrestle?
In Remission
Florida HOA Backs Off Gun Ban After State AG Threatens Legal Action [More]
Looks like the cut the cancer out in time.
I still think Karl, Jonas, and Eric need more radiation treatments.

Think of It as a Temporary Redeployment
Are Democrats Backing Off Gun Control as National Priority? [More]
Of course not.
They just realize it’s not the winner at the polls the zealots say it is and are focusing on other ways to bamboozle the low-informed.
Let them win the midterms and make Trumpism look vulnerable and you’ll see it back with a vengeance.

How to Win Friends and Influence People
Because we’ve seen firsthand how well it works for them.
Jerry Reinsdorf, of course, plays both sides of the field. And Justin Ishbia is a flat-out rope-selling capitalist.
The Road to Hell
Proposed Bill Creates Overbroad Felony Risk for Lawful Gun Owners [More]
By all means, if you’re a NC gun owner, do what GRNC asks.
Me, I’d also be inclined to contact these guys and ask them the Jenny question.
Don’t Think of It as ‘Cutting’ in Line, Think of It as Sensitivity Training
6 people hurt in stabbings at Penn Station, authorities say [More]
And, of course, “Under New York Penal Law § 265.01-e, public transportation infrastructure — including train stations, subway stations, rail cars, buses, and bus terminals — is classified as a sensitive location. The state’s official concealed carry FAQ confirms that licensed carry holders generally may not bring a firearm into a sensitive location…”
Knives and stabbings aren’t allowed either, so there’s that.
A New York State of Mind
Brady Applauds Passage of NY Bill Requiring Gun Owners to Lock Up Their Firearms [More]
That oughta stop gangstas from passing out with the stolen Glock on the coffee table…
What, you didn’t think Little Billy and Susie accurately represented the issue, did you? They’re too busy playing with Democrat box-wino Mommy’s dildos.

That would be this Third World collectivist ingrate bent on turning the Founder’s Republic into the hellhole he escaped from…
Propped Up?
Mark Wahlberg completely unrecognizable in new movie ‘By Any Means,’ trailer goes viral [More]
ATF Director Cekada’s Concern for Adamiak Misses Larger Point
“Cekada promised neither he nor the ATF will be ‘offended by the outcome of the courts,’ because he wants to make sure that Adamiak was ‘appropriately sentenced’,” Williams recounted. That’s mighty big of him. However, Second Amendment advocates should be offended by such a presumptuous response. [More]
Focusing on the punishment being too harsh ignores the intolerable injustice of there being any punishment at all.
A Silver Lining
Never-Before-Seen 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre Photos [More]
Yeah, well, at least they don’t allow human rights violations…

What’s Changed?
I just ran across this old GOA newsletter:
The threat hasn’t changed, so what has? And why are today’s “gun rights leaders” on the same side as what GOA once properly recognized as “the Left”?
Daddy’s Little Girl Redux
According to Her Nature
Raman is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America and has argued for steering the city in a more progressive direction. [More]
Democrat Socialists of America…?
And yes, of course she’s for open borders/cultural terraforming.
Ranjit…? Care to argue some more…?
Tyranny 250
As one social-media wag responded, “The fact that we are having a hard time throwing America a 250th birthday party because leftists are threatening to kill everyone involved is the most zeitgeist s–t I’ve ever seen in my life.” [More]
And the “Team Freedom” response…?

Gold Hat Gun Control
So, the state ran checks they had no authority to run yet based on an emergency that didn’t clear the bar to be an emergency while ignoring an injunction that’s still sitting on the judge’s desk. [Watch]
Checks and balances? We ain’t got no checks and balances. We don’t need no checks and balances. I don’t have to show you any stinking checks and balances!
If they don’t have to obey the law, why should we have to obey their lawlessness?
