Liz Cheney’s Chronic Trump Derangement Syndrome Ultimately Betrays Gun Owners

Voters paying attention could have seen Cheney’s malleable self-serving loyalties coming by the company she keeps. In 2009 she partnered with Bill Kristol to found Keep America Safe, a nonprofit advocate for Bush–Cheney national security positions. Kristol is the Never Trumper who has called Democrats “foolish” and “cowardly” for not demanding more infringements, declaring “I don’t think [Americans] have a right to semi-automatic, quasi-machine guns that can shoot a hundred bullets at a time,” and asserting the “lazy” white working class should be replaced by “new Americans.” [More]

Yet another reason why gun owners trusting NRA grades without doing their own due diligence so often end up feeling swindled and used…

UNLV Shootings Highlight Futility of Life-Endangering College ‘Gun Control’

So, what else could the “terrified students and professors” do besides “cower”? [More]

“Run, Hide, Fight,” the armed SECOND responders advise. What if you can’t outrun a bullet, can’t keep the monster from finding you, and can’t get close enough to attack back with a fire extinguisher or chair?

Not Content to Eviscerate the Second Amendment, Gun-Grabbers Go After the First

What’s clear from both the Illinois and the California cases, is prohibitionist Democrats, thwarted by the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, will leave no right unabridged in their totalitarian obsession with controlling everything. [More]

If freedom prohibitionists can take the guns, what’s to stop them from taking everything else?

Where Do Republican Presidential Candidates Stand on the Second Amendment?

For now, let’s take a look at the likely contenders and see what they’ve said about the right to keep and bear arms, and more importantly, what they’ve done… [More]

Just in time for tonight’s debate where we’ll see if the subject even comes up…

The Lord Helps Those Who Help Themselves

Israel’s Shin Bet Actively Disarming Some Near Front Lines – Israelis receiving military firearms are part of security services NOT regular citizens. Handguns and shotguns are still VERY difficult to purchase. [More]

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.

They’re making it awfully tough…

Will Republican Presidential Candidates Ever Give Clear 2A Rights Answers?

Firearms News will be exploring where these contenders stand on the Second Amendment, in both a separate analysis documenting actions, positions, and statements, and via a questionnaire, the subject of this article, designed to produce unequivocal answers. [More]

Finding out who shines us on, who sends us boilerplate, and who is not afraid to lead on the Second Amendment, could be useful to know for the primaries.

Armed American Radio Host Takes on Open AI Chat Bot in Landmark Defamation Lawsuit

That “chatbots” can “hallucinate” sounds like something out of science fiction, and what that actually means and how it differs from program corruption, coding errors or simply bad source inputs is still not clear: This is all new stuff. [More]

GILO: Garbage in, libel out…

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. [More]

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

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.

Out-of-State Funding Pushes Anti-Gun Protasiewicz to Wisconsin Supreme Court

You don’t need a crystal ball to know that Protasiewicz will side with the gun prohibitionist violence monopolists every chance she gets. [More]

Not only will a defacto Demanding Mom be ruling from the High Court, Cheesehead commies are pushing a bill (AB 51) to allow DACA enforcers to be on state police and sheriff departments — hey, who needs to import blue helmets to help confiscate guns from citizens when we’ve got a ready-made pool of foreign nationals to draw from?

Does Trump Truly Support the Second Amendment?

[W]e are not doing ourselves or those depending on us to stand for freedom any favors if we deliberately ignore Trump’s willful failures on guns. Because this is going to end one of two ways – strengthening his renewed bid for a return to the White House, or ending any chances of it. If he wins, we need to be able to collectively influence his 2A decisions and judicial appointments and get him to understand what the bad ones are before he makes them. If he loses, we need to be ready to do the same with whomever the Republicans nominate to carry the standard. [More]

Gun owners need to look and assess with no illusions if they hope to have any influence on how power, once granted, is ultimately wielded.

Conviction of Top Mexican Cop Shows Corruption Problem, Not U.S. Guns

As a fraudulent criminal in government, Luna played the citizen disarmament game using the same narrative lies prohibitionists here were exploiting to try and swindle American citizens out of their birthright. [More]

Criminals in government are the same murderous and greedy gun-grabbing swine on both sides of the border.

Radical Oregon Ruling Declares Defense of Second Amendment Racist and Antisemitic

“Intervenors came before this court and referenced UN mandates, which … is a well-documented trope meant to invoke white supremacist, antisemitic fear of a takeover of our country by outsiders and minorities who are manipulated by an elite class of supervillains,” Egan wrote. The Columbia County ordinance (and by implication, all Second Amendment sanctuary resolutions throughout the Republic) has “antisemitic and racist origins,” he declares. [More]

With judges adopting Antifa’s rhetoric, can communist “people’s courts” for counterrevolutionaries be far off?

Maryland Prosecutors Treat Veteran’s Self-Defense Claim as First Degree Murder

Despite extensive evidence proving his self-defense claims, Maryland continues to prosecute U.S. Army Veteran Alejandro Gonzalez and hold him without trial for more than 14 months. [More]

If they can do this to him they can do this to you.

Slow Going Ahead

I’ll be out all of tomorrow and have much to do behind the scenes today.

I’ll try to get to some of the email tips sent since yesterday later this afternoon, but no guarantees. My priority will be on publicizing articles I expect to be published on AmmoLand and Firearms News, and on working on a couple of new ones I’ve started drafting.

Please hold off on further correspondence until Thursday, because chances are I won’t be able to do anything with it. Also, don’t be surprised if comment moderation is delayed more than usual.

Nevada Considers Bill to Allow Foreign Citizens as Police Officers

The thought of a foreigner doing it seems intolerable. What could go wrong with our cities employing what amounts to latter-day Hessian mercenaries, with incentives to follow orders above all else, especially since rocking the boat or blowing the whistle could jeopardize more than their jobs, but also their eligibility to remain in this country?

Montana Warns YouTube of Consequences for Acting as a Democrat Proxy to Censor Speech

Big Tech argues they deserve exemptions because they are not content providers. Acting as content deniers, suppressing anything that does not advance a state-approved “progressive” narrative, and facilitating the universal spread of that which does, effectively amounts to the same thing. [More]

How is removing legal content at the demand of Democrat politicians not a de facto First Amendment violation?
