Open Lawfare

The lawsuit, brought Tuesday by the nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety and exclusively obtained by NBC News, names multiple defendants, including YouTube and Reddit, online spaces where the shooter was allegedly radicalized, as well as the retailer that sold the shooter’s gun and the manufacturer of his body armor. The suit, which also names the shooter’s parents, was filed in New York Supreme Court. [More]

Leaving no right left unturned… and I wouldn’t exactly call that a Fragrance…

It’s not too much of a leap to anticipate the day when all of us can be sued and even criminally prosecuted for expressing pro-RKBA sentiments, just like those who express election doubt sentiments…

Wrong Thinking is Punishable

Last month Padden, now 74 and retired, joined with a nonprofit group called the Media and Democracy Project (MAP) to urge the Federal Communications Commission to deny Fox’s renewal of its license to operate one of its largest stations, WTXF in Philadelphia, known as Fox29. Padden and MAP argue that Fox lacks the “character” required by the FCC to be a license holder, because of post-election misinformation spread by another company entity: Fox News.

“Fox has undermined our democracy and has radicalized a segment of our population by presenting knowingly false narratives about the legitimacy of the 2020 election,” Padden wrote in a statement supporting MAP’s petition, which accuses Fox of “intentional, knowing news distortion.” [More]

The ‘We P!ss on Your Bill of Rights Act of 2023’

The Responsible Firearms Marketing Act would require the Commission to study the actions of gun manufacturers, importers, and dealers, including those which might target individuals younger than 18 years of age, encourage illegal use of a firearm, or relate to the sale of semiautomatic assault weapons. [More]

Why would tyrannical Democrat subversives with no respect for the Second Amendment have any respect for the First?

I do wonder if you questioned convicted juvenile shooters in the urban hotbeds where “gun violence” is most prevalent — and asked them which gun magazine and which specific ad inspired them — if any of them would know what the f*** you were talking about.

With Republicans in control of the House, this will go nowhere. For now.

No Questions Allowed

Mere months after the Uvalde school district suspended its entire police force for failing to effectively respond to a deadly shooting at an elementary school, school officials banned a concerned parent from school property — because he questioned the qualifications of a new police hire. [More]

That’s tyranny, plain and simple.

Here’s what the new leadership is doing to ensure the safety of the children they’re entrusted with! And true to form, they limit who can comment…

Life Imitates Art

By not ruling on it the judge is putting us in limbo, making us choose between going to synagogue and leaving our pistols at home, or carrying a pistol but not going to pray. The law bans carrying a firearms in houses of worship and religious observation. This law is outrageous, and it makes us pick between engaging in religious observation or exercising our second amendment right. [More]

Making Jews choose between one or the other. Where have we seen that before?

The plea for help comes from these guys. And they ask to make checks payable to these guys.

I confess to not being familiar with these folks. In my copious free time, I’ll see what I can find out. In the meantime, if you have relevant knowledge, feel free to educate the rest of us in “Comments.”

Capture the Flag!

Have a contemplative Patriots’ Day!

I got the above certificate along with a U.S. flag that had been flown over the Capitol back when I was still living in CA. It’s a constituent service that members of Congress provide for a nominal fee (20 bucks and up these days, depending on size and material). My dedication message read:

“In tribute to the Citizen Patriots of Lexington and Concord who resisted confiscation of their armaments on this date in 1775, and in continued defiance of all who would infringe on the Right of the People to keep and bear arms.”*

I did it because my “representative” was a big gun-grabber and refusing a pro-RKBA commemoration would have been a First Amendment violation.

With that in mind, there are plenty of other dedications antithetical to “woke” orthodoxy that could be submitted. To find out how to order one, go to your rep’s website and find the “Sevices” link.

Concentrated Lies

“That is not a political issue. But it becomes one when Kentucky Republicans would rather ban books and pronouns and then make Kentucky a sanctuary state for weapons” [More]

Of course, it’s a political issue if you think you can vote on rights. And it’s not a question of banning books, it’s a question of not exposing children to sexual exploitation by deviants.

Speaking of banning books…

Have you ever met a gun-grabbing Democrat (but I repeat myself) who wasn’t a chronic and habitual liar?

The Big Chill

Independent journalist Steve Baker says he was recently warned that his aggressive reporting and commentary about Jan. 6 have created growing ire at the U.S. Department of Justice that could lead to his prosecution for being at the Capitol on that fateful Wednesday in 2021. [More]

Well, if he’s an “independent,” he’s not an “Authorized Journalist” then, is he?

And scary official threats of retaliation for reporting the truth… where have we seen that before?

97percent Deception

It also adopted a new test for Second Amendment cases. Gun laws today must be consistent with the laws that existed when the Second Amendment was adopted in the late 17 hundreds. This means that gun regulations will be assessed according to their conformity with laws that were in place during the 18th and 19th centuries. [More]

The 19th Century is not ” the late 17 hundreds.” I’ve been telling you these people were liars. These “kinder, gentler” citizen disarmament Astroturfers want us to believe “equal protection” means we’re now all subject to post-Civil War Black Codes introduced by Democrats a century after the Founders ratified the Bill of Rights.

“Our side” participating lends them underserved “credibility.”

Tangentially related, WarOnGuns Correspondent Jess shares a video on a First Amendment case raising similar points.
