Cruel and Unusual Punishment

Tate Adamiak to receive 50 days of ‘Diesel Therapy’ punishment – He will be kept completely out of touch in the back of a DOC van. [More]

As long as we’re in a new paradigm of text, history, and tradition, what’s the Founding Era parallel where they would have kept an inmate captive in a wagon for a month-and-a-half because he claimed a right the government was mandated not to infringe?

Harmeet knows the Constitution– maybe she can tell us:

Bending the Truth

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston said Monday the city will not bend the knee to a legal threat from the U.S. Department of Justice over the city’s longstanding assault weapons ban. [More]

That’s some industrial-strength gaslighting right there.

Anybody else getting an Iran vibe out of the administration offering a deal and having it rejected out of hand by people who think they can hold out until the clock runs out?

Close to the Vest

Watch them come out and try to face by saying it’s a non-functional fashion replica, which will only prove Marx for Our Lives cultists were lying in the first place — imagine that. Thing is, unless Letitia’s attack dogs examine it, all we’ll have is their word for it.

I’d like to see more gun owners press her to investigate, which means, of course, this soon-to-be-forgotten and easy-to-ignore X reply may be the whole salvo.

I had to look up Racquel Chevremont to see why she’s famous, and still don’t get it.

Machine Gun Ruling Exposes Republican 2A Hypocrisy

The 11th Circuit joins “several sister circuits in holding that the Second Amendment does not protect the possession of machine guns.” That’s consistent with the Trump administration’s position on the matter, his campaign promises that “Your Second Amendment will always be safe with me as your president,” notwithstanding. [More]

Face it, gun owners are voting for who infringes less and accepting excuses for not demanding more.

A Dose of Reality

[T]he last thing we want, the last thing we in the Second Amendment community want, as I see it, is for the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, or for any circuit for that matter, to come out right now, now at least, and say that machine guns are protected under the Second Amendment… We do not want that next case going to the Supreme Court involving machine guns. [More]

We will never get an unequivocal “shall not be infringed” unless and until there is a credible “or else” attached to the demand.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond…

I said so why are you taking my firearms and they said because we understand you’ve been attacked… [Watch]

Oh, look, a subject of the King… That’ll teach him to be “law-abiding.”

He should have asked the confiscators if they had a 27-B-stroke-6.

What do Fudd Tories here think the plan is for them when their usefulness has ended?

Denial of Gun Licenses to Political Opposition in Germany Has Chilling Historic Precedent

Disarming anyone disfavored by the state is one of the oldest power guarantors devised by governments, and this happening in Germany recalls another set of laws imposed within the lifetimes of people still living. [More]

It’s déjà vu all over again.

Perpetual Motion

Plaintiffs have filed a motion for summary judgment in Roberts v. ATF, one of the Second Amendment Foundation’s (SAF) three supported lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act’s (NFA) registration requirements for short-barreled firearms and silencers. [More]

I just keep coming back to “shall not be infringed” and wonder what evil madness has gripped what was supposed to be the exemplar of Liberty, and, noticing who’s fighting us on this and where the buck stops, what all those high-sounding promises really meant.

The Stupidest Thing I’ve Seen on the Internet All Day

The Guardian view on Trump and the Washington shooting: political violence and gun culture endanger all [More]

So, with “gun law”-violating leftitsts who hate us wanting to kill us, the answer is for us to disarm…?

F-n’ Brits… No wonder the Muslims own these people.

And not wanting to be left out we have Brian Stelter and CNN

Thou Shalt Not Eat of It

Newly proposed and enacted legislation targeting 3D printers and CNC machines would impose restrictions more severe than those the Supreme Court rejects for actual guns.  In conjunction with restrictions on tools, states would create a category of computer source code illegal to possess. [More]

They literally presume the authority of God.

False Alternatives

Gun rights! Public safety! Gun rights! Public safety! [Watch]

There’s no tension between the two. They’re both the same side. And coming closer together to “escape” only means we surrender more increments while they make disingenuous noises about easing up on things of ours that they have no claim to.

Talk about a trap.

There is no “debate.” There is truth and there is falsehood, and the latter should never be credited with equal weight or value. 

And TED Talks themselves are for herding sheep.

Not that this useful idiot and the low information dolts who would fall for this childish ploy can figure that out, which suits the evil minds encouraging this misdirection just fine.

Yamane’s “full spectrum” includes Rob Pincus as representative of the hard core gun advocacy side? Funny, how the “compromise” being lauded never questioned where in the Constitution any branch of government is delegated the power to require federal licensing of firearms dealers in the first place. The sides we’re told are opposite were simply quibbling over the degree of ingringement.

But go ahead and take “expert” gun advice from someone who just admitted to the world he pulled the trigger on a .50 cal knowing he couldn’t see his target.

Be honest, Yamane. Tell us who you voted for so we can see what you enable.

Off to Unfouled Nests

Blue state residents ‘fleeing in droves’ after ‘insane’ progressive takeover, says top state attorney [More]

How they gonna vote in their new home?

Anybody hear this guy include “citizen disarmament” among his reasons for leaving…?

Good thing the “Great Replacement” has been debunked!

Menace to Society…?

And just happened:

I’m sure more will be forthcoming, so if you want to know more, I suggest you follow his feed.
