The Eye of the Beholder

Arkansas public school students will soon be required to take gun safety courses [More]

“Gun safety” as in Youth for National Security or “gun safety” as in Everytown for Gun Safety?

A potential “live fire” option sounds promising, but will it be with more than a single-shot .22 and will it be high school before it’s declared “age appropriate” (I always preferred “development appropriate,” that focuses on the individual instead of the collective) ?

And I wonder how many Democrat parents will go ballistic…

The Whole Point of Newspeak

Naming a law that unconstitutionally displaces American workers with foreign invaders the “Keep Washington Working Act” is comparable to calling a Green New Deal spending blowout the “Inflation Reduction Act” and a desecration of holy matrimony the “Respect for Marriage Act.” [More]

And they want you disarmed to “protect public safety.”

A Forced Reset

The DOJ just filed a rebuttal of our Notice of Noncompliance calling out the ATF on their failure to comply with the court’s order to return FRTs. If we were hoping the new DOJ would do an about-face in this case, this ain’t it. The DOJ is arguing that FRTs stolen from gun owners can only be returned if they under go a background check. Absolutely not. [More]

Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

Trump’s ‘Royal Road’ to Citizenship Leads in Wrong Direction for ‘Gun Rights’

Most are opposed to anyone outside of the government bearing arms, and it’s safe to assume once granted citizenship, they’ll vote that way. [More]

It shouldn’t just be about money, and a complete Bill of Rights culture, with a Second Amendment that precedent shows most will vote against, is what enabled this country to become so prosperous in the first place.

Restoration Project

About two weeks ago, Ms. Oyer was put on a working group to restore gun rights to people convicted of crimes, she said. [More]

Four Boxes Diner explains the significance.

See, it’s not “prickly” at all, Mel.

Well, maybe for NRA President “Lautenberg Bob” Barr…

Suing Instead of Solving

The Glock switch distraction [More]

As a tangentially-related aside, with the death of Gene Hackman happening while I was gone, I caught 2003’s Runaway Jury last night for the first time (co-starring the handsy Little Big Mouth). What a piece of crap primer in cartoonish anti-gun scripting and legal incompetence/ malpractice/ lawbreaking that I recommend seeing if for no other reason than to slap your forehead at the clumsiness of the attacks, and to appreciate how 2005’s Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act shields us from much such subversive nonsense, but not enough.
