The Daily Show Attacks the 2nd Amendment Along with Firearms News’ Be Ready! Magazine

In this case, Klepper and his team set out to get gun owners with no media experience on camera responding to set-up questions and then to selectively present who would be shown and how much of their answers would be included. The intent was to present them as representative and make all of us look like ignorant rubes so that we could be laughed at, and so the entire movement of right to keep and bear arms advocacy could be dismissed as the province of morons and paranoids.

Anything you say to the media can and will be held against you.

Kloepfer Lawsuit Documents ‘Attempted Murder’ of Unarmed Citizen by Police

The lawsuit follows. Readers are encouraged to set aside the time to go through it completely to understand the totality of events that happened and are still happening to a citizen attempting to comply with police orders, and to know if it can happen to Jason Kloepfer it can happen to any of us. [More]

That this story hasn’t been headline national news tells us much.

New FOIA Request Filed on Hunter Biden Gun Investigation Now That Privacy Excuse is Gone

Because the DOJ has now made charges public, and because Biden’s attorney has acknowledged those charges, attorney Stephen Stamboulieh filed a new FOIA request Tuesday afternoon. [More]

The Biden administration’s enforcers want to gloss this over and are counting on the “real reporters” to let them. My sense is there’s more here to uncover and I want to keep digging and find out what they don’t want us to know.

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.

Police Handwringing Over Ohio Permitless Gun Carry A Big Nothing Burger

That’s a version of the old and unfounded-in-reality “blood in the streets/Dodge City over fender benders” argument the gun prohibitionists used when railing against licensed concealed carry. And note his concern was not for “public safety” but for officer safety. [More]

Back the Blue when they don’t back you…?

Los Angeles City Council Arrests Point to ‘Criminals for Gun Control’ Mentality

“Curren Price is the latest member of the Los Angeles City Council to be arrested in recent years.” … “I am a firm believer in the control of guns, the restraint of guns, and the federal government’s proposal for the regulation of guns,” Curren told Our Weekly in 2013 in a report on the “Gun Culture on South L.A.” [More]

Projection much?

Republican Holdouts on Pistol Brace Vote Point to Larger GOP Problem

With this being SOP for the GOP, it’s no wonder lesser luminaries like Fitzpatrick and Kean feel like they can do anything they want, and “lesser of two evils” gun voters won’t have a choice but to keep rewarding them with power. [More]

If the turncoats will betray gun owners on something as clear-cut as this, what won’t they betray them on?

Democrats Pressuring House Republicans into Caving on Guns

Whether any of the Vichycon Republicans are actually gutless and dumb enough to believe that the prudent play is to listen to the commies and betray their base remains to be seen. While the urge to believe they won’t be is strong, we’ve seen “moderates” snatch defeat from the jaws of victory before. While they might not cave on everything, their baffling propensity to give up “something” and showcase an aptitude for “bipartisan compromise” is a factor that can’t be ignored. [More]

They only need five turncoats in the House, and those aren’t that hard to find.

Newsom Goes Full Orwell with 28th Amendment to Gut 2nd

In other words, they’ll be able to enact any damn ban they want to, up to and including a total prohibition on “civilians” owning guns… [More]

But “no one’s talking about taking your guns,” right?

Taiwan ‘Gun Control’ Means Civilian Training Too Little Too Late

While parallels to the situation in Ukraine are understandable enough to make with this new move to recruit civilians into the defense equation, the biggest similarity (and biggest mistake) is, both nations waited until the wolf was at the door to start the process. [More]

Once again, citizen disarmament is proving destructive to those who presume to hold a monopoly of violence.

‘White Women’ Prove Claim That ‘No One Wants to Take Your Guns’ is a Lie

And that’s what these stupid, sheltered white women have been swindled into believing they want – an executive order that “includes a total ban on all guns and a comprehensive, mandatory buyback program.” You don’t have to read any more of the proposal after that—you got the crux of it. [More]

Thanks to impatient radicals coming right out and saying it, no one can any longer deny that “common sense gun safety” is code for “Ban and confiscate all guns.” Well, they can, but they’ll demonstrably be lying.

New York ‘Gun Violence’ Medicaid Bill a Wealth Redistribution Boondoggle

“Under the proposal, a Medicaid beneficiary who has been involved in or injured by community violence and has received a health care referral would be eligible,” the report recounts, noting “California, Connecticut and Illinois have been granted similar approval to use Medicaid for violence prevention programs.” [More]

That more citizens don’t recognize what utter clownish frauds anti-gun Democrats are is one more indicator of this being the Age of Madness.

Fetterman Aide Unwittingly Refutes ‘No One Wants to Take Your Guns’ Lie

Fetterman’s own public statements show his aide understands his position well. [More]

The end game is a monopoly of violence. Anyone who tries to tell you differently is a useful idiot, a damned liar, or both.

‘In Common Use’ Can Ultimately be Used to Make the Second Amendment a Moot Point

Because what was in common use in the past is not what is in common use today, nor what will be in common use tomorrow. At least by the military and by law enforcement. [More]

Withhold technological developments from We the People based on “common use” and at what point in the future does planned obsolescence kick in? Also, as an aside, I don’t know why the editors replaced my photo with one that’s irrelevant to the topic and the caption I wrote.

Daily Defense

I’ll be joining Armed American Radio’s Mark Walters this afternoon at 4 Eastern. I’m sure we’ll talk about something, probably even about guns and freedom, and the evil degenerates and their useful idiots that are against either.
