A One in Five Million Shot

One murder with @ 5M members at the time? Is there a more peaceable population on the planet?

Point/Counterpoint

Last night, I was given a statement from the victim of Tim Walz to release this morning. [More]

Vs.

Anyone blindly believing this, is retarded. [More]

I agree.

What about people who blindly discourage investigating such a serious criminal accusation leveled against a powerful politician?

It’s no secret I could not be more against Walz. I think if he and Kamala are elected it’s an existential threat to peaceable means of redress for Second Amendment advocates. With that being said, I thought Community Notes existed for just such posts as these.

I understand not dignifying a “Have you stopped beating your wife?” loaded question and helping draw attention to it. Still, this has the potential to impact election results, and if I don’t object to them doing this to Walz I can’t object to them doing this to anyone, including me.

As a proponent of “Red Flag Laws,” Walz is all for you and me having to prove OUR innocence if accused of something the government will disarm us over without being convicted of anything. But that still doesn’t make it right for anyone to demand he prove HIS innocence: The burden of proving guilt is on the state.

FEC and DOJ should be the ones investigating this. If it turns out to be a malicious lie being spread in an attempt at election interference, that’s prosecutable, especially if more than one person is involved. So is if the accusations turn out to have substance.

If you see something say something, right?

Spooking the Herd

If they do find any, I wonder what percent will be embedded feds…

If they can’t provoke the low-hanging fruit, they need to find some other way to conflate them with us.

“People like me who like to hunt and who love guns, it’s sad almost to watch them get cut up,” said volunteer Dan Krull. “But we are going to support this sort of thing because it is symbolic and sends a message like, ‘Look we need to do something.’” [More]

You’re a real genius, aren’t you, gunkapo Fudd Dan?

So: Who was the FFL who processed the transfers?

Or was this another one of these?

A Safe Seat Democrat

The face diapers work as well as his “gun laws.” How’d they let the one guy in without one?

Let’s be clear. Allowing Trump to hold an event at MSG is equivalent to the infamous Nazis rally at Madison Square Garden on February 20, 1939 [More]

That may be you he’s talking about.

Solid blue district Democrats don’t even try to hide their Antifa affinities.

Or that they want your guns.

We’re the Only Ones Forfeiting Enough

Appeals Court rules state must return $225K seized from California man during Brandon traffic stop [More]

Will he be compensated for the time and money he has spent fighting this?

And what will it personally cost the government thieves?

Here’s the way the JBTs describe it:

Asset forfeiture is a powerful tool used by law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, against criminals and criminal organizations to deprive them of their ill-gotten gains through seizure of these assets.

“Criminals.” That sure implies they’ve been tried, found guilty, and sentenced, doesn’t it?

Someone with a better historical understanding help me out here: I found, on the Hawaii Criminal Justice Division’s page of all places, the claim that “The first statute authorizing civil forfeiture was enacted by Congress in 1789 as a sanction for the use of ships in customs violations. (Act of July 31, 1789, Sections 12, 36; 1 Stat. 39, 47.)”

If anybody has time to dig into this right now, does it say anything about them being tried and convicted first? I’m wondering if a Bruen style “text, history,. and tradition at the time of ratification” argument could be made.

Nashville Cats

10 people shot, one fatally, on Jefferson Street in Nashville [More]

So two groups of feral morons opened fire on each other, hitting innocents in the process…

According to all the “commonsense gun safety law” liars and fools, that’s a pretty good argument for disarming you and me.
