Gabriel Metcalf is out of jail, but with a GPS ankle monitor, for which he must pay $9.50 daily or nearly $300 monthly. [More]
You know, just like the Founders used to do if you had a gun on your own property.

2A WRONGLY DENIED: Washington Federal Judge DENIES Motion to Enjoin Magazine Restrictions [Watch]

Out with the Old
Iverson rolled over for virtually everything the far left wanted. Her “leadership” set back Oregon in ways that would be hard to calculate. [More]
It’s a pretty sad state of affairs when the best you can say about whoever will replace her is there’s a chance they may not be as bad.
In tangentially related news, it looks like the judge is seeing how the law can result in “disparate policing” and discriminatory enforcement.
Delaware Judge Orders DOJ & Hunters Lawyers to Hand Over Gun Indictment
Unlawfully usurping authority isn’t the only thing the government is trying to hide in this case, and by that, I mean in relation to guns. [More]
Two big questions concerning unlawful government practices allegations will remain unanswered if a stonewalling DOJ has it’s way and Republicans continue their deliberate indifference.
Not the Brightest Bulbs
Mother, son caught with guns at Cuyahoga County Justice Center claim they were for protection [More]
That’s not the way to do it.
And that said, my own experience shows how no means of doing this legally puts the “law-abiding” at risk.

Runaway Slave
She continued, “So I’m going to go ahead and find that you are at risk to commit additional felonies and a potential risk to flee the jurisdiction.” [More]
Making an example of the black upstart who wants nothing to do with the plantation before others get the same idea, eh? That must explain the absence of outrage by the middlemen.
“Additional”…?
Did she just publicly poison the pool by saying he’s already committed the felony charges he’s on trial for?
Narrowing the Field
“…the Department of Justice used none of these racist laws they gave up all of these racist laws … because as you know because the burden is on the government to come forth with historical laws at the time of the founding… that we can basically kick out and get rid of as not being applicable reduces the number historical gun control laws that the anti-gunners can use to justify modern gun control regulations… [Watch]
That they don’t dare use racist precedent is powerful information to exploit, legally and ideologically.
One other point I don’t see anyone addressing — just because a law existed at the time of the Founding doesn’t mean it would have been upheld as constitutional if it had been challenged at the time on Second Amendment grounds.

‘Quantity Has a Quality All Its Own’?
47 weapons, 26K rounds of ammo seized from home of California judge charged with murdering wife [More]
The deliberate implication being if someone collects guns and has a considerable quantity of ammunition, they’re a danger.

Just the Man for the Job
Weiss is the federal prosecutor who has investigated the business dealings of Hunter Biden and brought charges against him in Delaware. [More]
So the mastermind of the sweetheart deal the judge called BS on…?

Appeals Court: No First Amendment Right to Religious Exemption From Vaccine Mandate [More]
You must let us experiment on your children or we will take them from you, and if you resist us, we will kill you.
More souls for Moloch, just like the Founders intended.
One of the judges is a Trump appointee, once more underscoring the importance of vetting these bastards before handing them a gavel.

A Double-Edged Sword
Jury nullification. Deep blue areas will convict the innocent and free the guilty. This ruling is legalized lynching and open season on all conservatives. [More]

The Butterfly Effect
9th Circuit overturns Hawaii butterfly knife ban, citing Supreme Court ‘history’ standard on guns [More]
More fine work from Alan Beck and Stephen Stamboulieh…
I notice Adam Winkler whining about Bruen creating an “impossible position.” Why they ever invited this guy to GRPC is beyond me– it’s not like he’s a pal.
Can you imagine if we started challenging other tyrannical edicts and programs based on historical understanding at the time of ratification? It could change everything.
Who will Judge the Judge?
Bowe Bergdahl’s conviction vacated by federal judge [More]
The disclosure issue is BS. Every judge out there has partisan preferences, as does every federal employee, including (and especially) Reggie Walton. I guess traitor’s gotta stick together.
He’s the same robed subversive (and Bush appointee, by the way) who understood full well that individuals were dying in D.C. but nonetheless declared the Second Amendment to be a “collective right.”
Cry ‘Havoc!’ and Let Slip the Dogs of War
Illinois’ plan to eliminate cash bail statewide just cleared a major hurdle [More]
This should end well.
On the plus side, the chances of any of this impacting Judge Mary Jane up close and personal are probably very small.

As We Forgive Those Only Concerned About Themselves?
In 2020, a paralyzed Walker said he’d forgiven the shooter. He told a judge on the stand that his life expectancy has been shortened 20 – 30 years from the shooting and that defendant Thomlison won’t even serve that much time in prison. [More]
It doesn’t sound like the stupid old bastard who shot him wants to be forgiven. It sounds like he just wants his sentence reduced.

Mooting Cases Can Chill Incentives to Pursue Gun Denials
Who wants to spend years and substantial effort to force a correction and not even be able to recover costs? Who has those kinds of resources? [More]
Here’s another huge advantage that rights deniers with unlimited state resources have over gun owners of limited means.
Who will Judge the Judges?
A federal appeals court has restored most of New Jersey’s new gun control laws limiting firearms in sensitive public places after overturning a lower court ruling blocking many restrictions while a legal challenge plays out. [More]
Here’s the order. If someone gets killed as a result of it, I wonder how much sleep the judges will lose.
Krause was appointed by Obama and Chung was appointed by Biden. The one that concerns me here is Porter, appointed by Trump.

Who Will Judge the Judges?
Third Circuit, En Banc, Range v. Lombardo: Not All Modern Felons Lose Second Amendment Rights … Several judges dissented. [More]
Which ones?
Who nominated them?
Who voted to confirm them?
I could go find out but it would take time I don’t have right now.
It would be nice if there were a website that provided judicial ratings and a way to hold those who enabled them politically accountable. It would be even more useful if it also politically scaled and rated inferior court judges running in “nonpartisan” elections and showed who backs them so their partisan allegiances could be inferred.
I guess I’m talking something like Ballotpedia on steroids. Too bad the name “Judicial Watch” is taken, although come to think of it, they’d be the perfect ones to take this on.
