Notes from the Resistance
Bexar County court records show Diaz has four other gun-related charges stemming from different incidents dating back to 2015. [More]
So, if he’s proven he can’t be trusted with a gun, what can’t he be trusted without?
No social order that denies basic truths can endure, and that seems to be the age we find ourselves in.

The loudest voices politicizing this tragedy are those who attempted to derail vital public services for the severely mentally ill. [More]
They’re also the loudest voices against “the law” and for disarming the rest of us.

UPDATE
Young American men will be taught the hard way that selflessness, courage, and their masculine instincts will get them 20 to life in prison. [More]
And thanks to “progressives,” everyone loses!

This part is known and may be cited as the “Safeguard Against Homicidal Side Effects Act.” [More]
So what needs to happen if someone can’t be trusted with a gun? Since when is the Constitutional solution to do an end run around the due p[rcess necessary to make that happen?
Guns & Gadgets calls it “the most discriminating bill ever.”
What the hell’s going on with Tennessee?

The alleged Schnucks parking lot shooter was already a wanted man with a reported violent criminal history. [More]
So if they knew that about this beast, how was letting him out not a crime against humanity?

Investigators confirmed the Jeep had been stolen less than 48 hours earlier. They found a stolen AR-style pistol on the backseat and a .357-caliber Glock 32 under the passenger seat. Both weapons had large-capacity magazines. [More]
If only there were some kind of law for people who can’t be trusted with guns…
Until then, they expect you and me to give up ours.

The devices, commonly called Glock switches or auto sears, are already illegal under the federal National Firearms Act. [More]
And now they’ll be even more illegal!
What anyone who’s proven he can’t be trusted with these is doing without a custodian is left unsaid.

According to court documents, investigators with the Illinois State Police entered a Jack in the Box restaurant in Collinsville in April 2022 to question Ross on an unrelated matter. Ross, who had a gun hidden in his waistband, attempted to hide the firearm under the deep fryer at the restaurant. At the time, Ross was on parole in Missouri for a 2018 robbery conviction. [More]
So he was working an honest job and had behaved himself for four years after the state had declared him safe enough to release back into the community…?

Fleming had prior convictions in Illinois, including drug possession and two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. [More]
If they knew he was too dangerous to be trusted with a gun, what was he doing outside of custodial care?
[Via bondmen]
The question presented in this case is not whether prohibiting the
possession of firearms by someone subject to a domestic violence restraining order is a laudable policy goal. The question is whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(8), a specific statute that does so, is constitutional under the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. In the light of N.Y. State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n, Inc. v. Bruen, 142 S. Ct. 2111 (2022), it is not. [More]
If only there were a better way…

“We changed the looks of his groin forever if you know what I mean,” Judd said. [More]
From his previous run-ins, it sounds like this whole incident would have been prevented if only “the law” had been applied.
[Via Remarks]
Most gun deaths are suicides. Could this law help prevent them? [More]
Let’s ask the “gun-free” Japanese!
Thoughts on filling out the form:

Metro police reported officers have been called to the same address 20 times in the last month, with many of the incidents involving the woman throwing boiling water on other people in the complex. [More]
So what the hell is she doing out and with access to others until such time as she proves she is no longer a danger to others?

Dallas airport accused shooter has lengthy criminal record, claimed to be Chris Brown’s wife, ‘God’s prophet’ – Portia Odufuwa, Dallas Love Field Airport shooting suspect, repeatedly deemed unfit to stand trial [More]
Of course, wanting to be married to Chris Brown is a pretty good sign, too…

What do you do with some piece of crap so unacceptably morally conditioned that he can’t be trusted with a brick?
I’m thinking public flogging and two weeks in the stocks before a year at hard labor to make restitution and pay for his upkeep. And woe unto him if he hurt someone, the worse he did the worse for him.

So they can’t be trusted without a custodian?
Don’t they use a dart rifle to tranquilize wild animals before giving them treatments?
