Notes from the Resistance
There is no valid reason the government can give that should supersede the rights of deceased veterans’ survivors, certainly nothing that would comply with the Bruen standard of history, text, and tradition at the time the Constitution was ratified. [More]
Kinda puts the lie to those Lee Greenwood lyrics…
They rely on violent crime so that they have blood to dance in, to whip up mob furor among constituents ignorant and stupid enough to vote for them. [More]
Why punish their constituents when they can punish you?
So, if we’re to believe Markey, Warren, and Pressley, MAIG cities are using racist technology to over police and violate Black and Latino civil rights. [More]
When leftist priorities collide…
It’s all consistent with a wider movement among Democrats and urban minorities to shift responsibility away from perpetrators and blame violent crime on guns. [More]
So, who are the sources, carriers and spreaders of that “epidemic of gun violence” Democrats are trying to swindle us out of our rights over?
To publicly excuse himself from going along with what he knows to be wrong, the sheriff offered an unconvincing anecdote “involving a man having a mental health crisis” [More]
Someone needs to tell this “Only One” that “just following orders” is not as good look…
It’s a game Republicans play all the time, stirring up hope when they know they won’t have to make good on things and nothing will change. [More]
Much ado about nothing…
David Codrea for a fantastic hour of current events [Listen]
I’d have said “magnificent,” but our ability to disagree is what makes this country great!
Hour 2 | David Codrea, The NRA, Your Rights, & You; Printing Paper And A Question About Felons; Modern Indoctrination; Antisemitism By Design | 5-14 | Straight Talk With Bill Frady [Listen]
Yesterday’s discussion…
Mark talks with David Codrea. Everytown, guns in cars narrative, and more [Listen]
Yesterday’s show for those who missed it and might care…
I wonder how we’ll find anything to talk about for a whole hour… ?
And the prohibitionists are aided in citizen disarmament when “gun rights leaders” not only accept – but argue for an invented “in common use at the time” qualifier that limits permitted firearms to what is commercially popular, as opposed to what soldiers and police carry… [More]
Hitler envisioned a Thousand Year Reich. The goal in the evil minds of fascist gun banners is a totalitarian monopoly of violence—forever.
The grabbers will include semi-auto rifles in the mix, and as long as they’re on a roll, why limit the qualifiers to internal devices like switches and sears? As long as they’re being redundantly obsessive, why not ban firearms that external devices like “bump stocks” can be attached to? [More]
But no one’s talking about taking your guns, right?
Discouraging women from defending themselves with the greatest equalizer yet devised and encouraging ignorance and fear is a major part of the gun prohibitionists’ unified propaganda effort. [More]
Why would anyone who’s not a willfilly ignorant dolt listen to bleating incompetents about anything?
In other words, the plaintiffs know they have nothing of merit, so they’re throwing everything against the wall to see if anything sticks. [More]
In a just world, the case would be thrown out as frivolous, plaintiffs would pay defendant attorney fees and court costs, and the ambulance-chasing “civil rights” lawyer would be fined and threatened with disbarment if he ever pulled this crap again.
Republican Rep. Reed Ingram “feels” the state’s 2022 permitless carry law, where “anyone over 19 years old can carry a concealed handgun without a permit, background check or training,” is a “bad bill.” Now “he intends to file a bill that would instead require someone to be 21 to conceal carry. They would also have to pass a hunter safety course or get a permit from the sheriff’s office.” [More]
With Republicans like this jackass, who needs Democrats?
8-11 pm Eastern…
“Original roundtable” at 9, eh…?
What was I talking about on this date 15 years ago…?
Wait… Dancing with the Stars isn’t on tonight, is it…?
What all those pages in the FOIA response did not do is provide what was being asked for. [More]
I wonder why they won’t share where they get the authority to strong-arm permanent gun disabilities without due process and that are not statutorily authorized from…
Mark talks with David Codrea-Fudd gun store owner sells out gun owners [Listen]
That would be this story.
I literally had five minutes to get out an announcement before the show, so here’s the archived version for anyone who got the notice after the fact but wants to hear it.
Perhaps it’s natural for people who know they can’t trust themselves to project their moral defects onto everybody else. [More]
Hoist with her own petard…
Mark Walters just called and asked if I’d like to join him this aft…in five minutes.
Listen/watch via the AAR website.
Why do some gun stores and trainers support restrictions on gun rights? David Codrea has some ideas. [Listen]
I had another interesting chat with Tom Gresham, much of it revolving around my AmmoLand piece about the gun store owner who supports the Biden administration killing private sales.
1st where are the fudds? Chip Curry is anti-gun and again where are the fudds? As a life long resident and sportsman of ME. and now a senior citizen I have NEVER been contacted by MIF&W. Besides it is not the job of IF&W to teach how to clean your AR. They are spending $ that is supposed to go to supporting wildlife supposed to be game animals not this B.S. PLUS, what moron would trust anyone associated with the Mill’s admin, not to keep records of who is in attendance and what they have. Lastly Where are the fudds? David Codrea, ME. has enough anti-2A going on with out your B.S. You sir are an @$$hat. [More]
Somebody was rubbed the wrong way.
As for where the Fudds are, reading is your friend: See objections to the class quoted in the article :
“I am a lifelong deer hunter and own several rifles and shotguns. I have never in my life seen a hunter in the woods of Maine using an AR style rifle for hunting.”
And:
“I consider myself an advocate for gun rights, I’ve grown up in Maine. I understand that Maine IFW does not make the gun laws for our country. I don’t believe anyone should be able to own AR style weapons…”
And it is the job– by law:
“The commissioner shall establish a program for training individuals in the safe handling of firearms.”
So yeah, funds go to that. Is your contention that it’s not in the state’s interest to make sure people it issues hunting licenses to can’t do it safely? As for funds going exclusively to wildlife and game animals, gun owners who aren’t hunters also subsidize that with higher prices to offset manufacturers and importers paying the federal excise infringement.
As for “what moron would trust anyone associated with the Mill’s admin, not to keep records,” I assume the “life long sportsman” got his guns through an FFL and gets licenses to hunt?
So, pointing out Fudds and antis objecting to the training and noting their hostility to ARs is “anti-2A … B.S.”?
Where are the Fudds? I think I just got done responding to one.
A handful of antis and Fudds repeating tired old lies was enough to get the Department to cave. As for their excuse that it was too soon after the Lewistown shooting, the question not being asked is what does a known nutjob going ballistic after being left alone by fearful authorities have to do with peaceable citizens and their lawfully owned rifles– and will the time ever come when prohibitionists don’t object to such training? If the maniac rammed his car into a group of people, would Maine cancel drivers ed classes? [More]
Ceding to prejudice, ignorance, and fear is no way to run a department.
One would think a Federal Firearms Licensee would be in tune with gun owner reasons and sentiments for Second Amendment absolutism, especially one whose website advertises “we specialize in Paramilitary weapons, military weapons, pistols, etc.” And one would think he would be aware of and responsive to mounting criticism from gun owners angered by his public statements, evidenced by comments under the WJAC article, but especially, on his Facebook. [More]
A bloviating gunkapo finds out pretty quickly his 15 minutes of fame weren’t worth it and is now trying to cover his tracks.
“Well, the reservists are ready and willing, if Russkies are coming. They will be a big help for the regular army,” Saro declared. “If there will be new shooting ranges opened, the main reason is just to be ready and practice. It is pretty similar to our Civil Guard that was active before the wars. Then, besides reservist and military, there are hunters.” [More]
Yes, there’s plenty wrong with their “gun control” laws. That doesn’t mean we can’t learn from what they do right.
David Codrea says the quiet parts out-loud. [Listen]
Here’s yesterday’s Armed American Radio, in which I once more demonstrate my total unsuitability to coexist in a Democrat world.
Thing is, I ain’t going anywhere.
