Notes from the Resistance
A gang that preys on gay men at Hell’s Kitchen nightclubs is suspected of killing at least two victims and of drugging and robbing more than a dozen other men — but Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is impeding the investigation, law enforcement sources say. [More]
I trust no one expects him to choose between which group it’s more politically advantageous for Democrats to pander to or ignore…

I’m sure they must have a good reason.

Unless we elect unabashed globalist socialists intent on confiscating guns and canceling all opposing thoughts, “fascists” who believe in limited and Constitutional government and a Bill of Rights culture, and “alter[ing] or [abolishing]” “any Form of Government … destructive of these ends” are going to mess up everything we’ve worked so hard to tear down!
It’s almost like they’re laying the foundation for insurrection if things don’t go their way tomorrow…
Other than murder, violent crime is not up. Did you know that? [More]
Mona Charen once more proves that, aside from being universally unlikeable, Vichycons are fricking idiots.

I would hope by now everyone here would have done their own due diligence but in the absence of everything else gun owners could do worse than using this guide. [More]
What do your state “gun rights groups” say about those and local races?
Soon it will be our task to fight against the Republican insiders who are licking their chops at the feast they see set before them. Many of them are mirror images of the Democrat consulting class, indifferent to outcomes as long as the gravy train continues. [More]
That’s what happens when you reward people without commitment or results.
It’s also assuming all the “red wave” hoop-dee-doo isn’t a gaslighting setup designed to provoke a spark.

Former CIA Intelligence officer suggests using ‘counterterrorism’ strategies against ‘right-wing’ Americans [More]
I’m probably going to write this one up because I’ve got a lot more to say about such embeds.
One longtime former co-worker in the television news business recalled that Kari Lake detested guns and practiced Buddhism. Another former local news anchor, Stephanie Angelo, who did not work with Ms. Lake but later became close friends with her, described Ms. Lake back then as “a free spirit” and “liberal to the core.” [More]
Figures, progs never heard of the Road to Damascus.
There was a time decades ago — before I knew what the hell I was talking about — that I “thought” gun licensing and registration would be useful.
They would be, but not for the reasons I foolishly believed.
Hell, Mike Vanderboegh was an out-and-out communist.
Guess what: People grow. At least some of us do.
And guess who every single one of the “authorized journalists” coming out with this “revelation” now wants to win?
It is with great sadness we report that Agustin Blazquez passed away October 27th, 2022 in Bethesda, Maryland at age 78, from a stroke. Agustin was my dear friend of thirty years, and also my artistic collaborator as producer-director of The Trump Effect: Deprogramming the American Mind (2017). [More]
Laurence Jarvik gives a comprehensive and fitting tribute to a man whose loss everyone who values freedom should mourn.
From our friends at Spider & the Fly:
Agustin Blazquez, Founding Member of ACAT’s Speakers Bureau – R.I.P.
Agustin fled Cuban communism and eventually settled in the United States. His tenacity and insight into the communist mind are sorely missed.
Agustin produced numerous films underlining the deficiencies of communism in theory and practice. Don’t miss ‘Che Guevara: Castro’s Executioner’ above (tens of thousands of views!), and ‘Promises, Promises – How the Communists Betrayed the Cuban People’ on ACAT’s Videos page.
On this site:
The story of Agustin’s exodus from Cuba: I was leaving all the past, both my family which I loved and suffering and fear of persecution.
Love letter to America: I love and I’m proud of America because it’s a country that opens its doors and gives you a second chance to begin a new life with freedom of choice.

He was also a valued WarOnGuns Correspondent, first on the original blog and then here.
I was struck by a recent article in the “popular press” on “beloved influential icons we’ve lost in 2022” and noted the lead-off was a rapper shot to death by cronies during a bowling alley craps game. I could only shake my head at the pH factor absurdity of how “our” manipulating cultural narrative drivers direct public attention.
That, of course, is part of a plan.
When the self-important “Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences” goes through its “complete” list of departed luminaries at its next awards ceremony, you can bet the documentary filmmaker who deserved recognition and honor throughout his career — and a posthumous lifetime achievement award now — will remain unmentioned as the glitterati goes about its task of furthering cultural degeneracy while lauding fellow perverts and subversives.
It’s up to us to honor and remember the man. You can start by setting aside some time to learn about his work, and then by sharing it.
And Lula, of course, being an old socialist, is against guns, but Congress may stand in his way. No problem though, because we’re told he can put in place by decree “what Brazil had before.”
By diktat. Who does that? [More]
Prepare to repeat the past.
Iowa City is taking a stance against a proposed gun rights amendment to the Iowa Constitution that is up for a vote in next week’s midterms. City Council members passed a resolution opposing Public Measure Number One earlier this week. [More]
Proudly self-billed as “A UNESCO city…”
Not to mention a Bloomberg one…
I wonder if that’s why 76% of the cities in the U.S. are safer…?

‘Anti-racist’ professor calls Herschel Walker ‘subliterate,’ uses racial slur [More]
And if you didn’t vote for Joe Biden, you ain’t black!
I don’t suppose it occurs to “Professor” Sundiata Cha-Jua that he is essentially fulfilling the same role as “the man in the middle“…?

The Shoddy Conclusions of the Man Shaping the Gun-Rights Debate – John Lott is the most influential pro-gun researcher in the country. But his methods and findings have been repeatedly debunked. [More]
I see a lot of smears, a lot of ad hominem, and a lot of denials by those with vested monetary grant interests, but what I’m not seeing is actual data to refute him. Forgive me if I suspect a partnership with the Bloomberg-“seeded” The Trace might play a factor in this obvious hit piece.
Incidentally, I had to open this in an “incognito” window because I’ve used up my “free” reads. Forgive me again if I don’t see anything offered by these smug effete elites worth paying for.
Plenty of truth to this cover, wouldn’t you say?

Missouri House Minority Leader Crystal Quade (D – District 132) and several others signed a letter sent to Gov. Mike Parson’s office on Thursday. The group suggests three specific courses of action in the letter to prevent tragedies like last week in Missouri: Universal background checks, strengthened extreme-risk protection orders and repealing the Second Amendment Preservation Act. [More]
Yeah, go after “the law-abiding!”
That’ll fix exactly nothing.
Which is kind of the point.

As a result of the passage of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) of 2022, signed into law on June 25, 2022, the NICS Section has been working towards the implementation of an enhanced background check process for persons between the ages of 18-20. The enhancement provides the opportunity for additional outreach and research to be conducted regarding the existence of any juvenile adjudication information and/or mental health prohibition. As a result, transactions on persons between the ages of 18-20 will initially be delayed and the address of the individual will be collected so that the appropriate local and state entities may be contacted. The enhanced process will begin on November 14, 2022, for all transactions on persons under the age of 21 as previously described. Checks on persons under the age of 21 could be extended for a period up to ten business days. Therefore, it is possible for an FFL to be contacted with an updated Brady Transfer Date. As a temporary measure and until the NICS can be updated to provide this information electronically, NICS staff will be calling FFLs to advise of any change in the transfer date. In preparation for calls from NICS, you will be asked to verify your license number and code word. You may wish to have this information readily available for you and your staff. [More]

Fetterman said in a statement that he is grateful for her support: “She is a leader on so many issues — fighting for our democracy, passing common-sense gun reform, and ensuring racial justice.” [More]
And evidently, on pulling guns on unarmed black joggers:
This demented policy could pass or fail on fewer votes than virtually any other in memory. [More]

In honor of Henry Repeating Arms’ silver anniversary celebration, the Wisconsin-based company is donating $50,000 to DAV (Disabled American Veterans), an organization dedicated to empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity. [More]
This came in via email and I thought it merited sharing.
Efforts to track foreign mis- and disinformation under former President Donald Trump have since been “perverted” under President Joe Biden to increasingly monitor what Americans say on social media, former Trump administration officials told the Daily Caller. [More]
Using “perverted” and “Biden” in the same sentence seems … unsurprising…

A central issue in Sheriff Smith’s trial is whether she provided concealed carry weapon permits in exchange for donations or other favors. Under questioning from San Francisco Assistant District Attorney Gabriel Markoff, Bechtel said he provided $750,000 to the Sheriff’s Advisory Board and arranged construction crews to make improvements to the Sheriff’s Department shooting range… Bechtel said he, his son, and two other relatives acquired concealed carry permits that were signed by Sheriff Smith. [More]
At least we know from Harpreet Chada that Laurie’s Big Club wasn’t exclusively “white privileged,” but I’d still like to see someone look into other “underrepresentation.”
In answer to an anticipated question, this was a civil trial and one of her defenders says regardless, these are not felonies. And here I was looking forward to Laurie becoming a “prohibited person” if they end up bringing criminal, charges.
