Fighting on Two Fronts

Meanwhile, our battles against Measure 114 are moving forward at a glacial pace. We believe our Federal lawsuit will be several more years in the courts. The state case, which gun owners are winning at this point, is headed to the Oregon Appeals Court as we speak. There is simply no way to predict the outcome on that one, but it will happen sooner. Victory there is simply essential. If we lose there, gun rights in Oregon could basically end for the foreseeable future. Those legal bills keep coming in. If you can help us with a donation to our Foundation your support will be greatly appreciated. [More]

Are you an Oregon gun owner? Do you know someone who is?

Speaking of Real $h!+ Reporting

I wonder how many of these people will bother to inform everyone they’ve misled.

Still… the original assumption had a point…

Bump Stocks Now Legal Again As Supreme Court Strikes Down Gun Device Ban

Looks like ATF will have to surrender my bump stock back to me when I come to confiscate it from them.

Herschel points out a concern with “Alito’s “Machinegun Sammy’s” response.

I agree. Congress has no Constitutional authority to “act,” either.

Yay, our heroes, protecting us from “greatest threat” white supremacist gun show denizens!

Anybody know this loser?

Variations on a theme:

“We need to revolutionize the way we look at guns, like what we did with cigarettes … It used to be that smoking was a glamour symbol—cool, sexy, macho. Now it is dirty, deadly—and banned.”

Is there anything in the law that prohibits posting this right next to it?

Contempt from the Contemptible

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House voted Wednesday to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing to turn over audio of President Joe Biden’s interview in his classified documents case, Republicans’ latest and strongest rebuke of the Justice Department as partisan conflict over the rule of law animates the 2024 presidential campaign.

If Vanderboegh were still around, I’d ask him if he wanted to do it again.

I see Dave Joyce is still useless and voting just like his predecessor.

Nothing to result from this in 3…2…1…

By Fair Means or Foul

California law prohibiting gun shows at county fairs upheld by federal appeals court in unanimous decision [More]

I trust no one is surprised.

Years ago, before the Great Western Gun Show was forced out of California, I recall being especially bitter over how it could attract tens of thousands of gun owners–yet a counter-protest against the Million Moms preceded by announcements and appeals throughout the “activist” network, only drew a few hundred. And out of all Los Angeles, we’d be lucky to get 50 to show up at an NRA Members’ Council meeting, and of those, maybe half a dozen– of the same people all the time– actually did any work.

Add the engineered demographic shift our “gun rights leaders” say doesn’t qualify for “single issue” consideration, and the traditional uselessness of California Republicans, and no other outcome was possible.

Appealing to the full Ninth Circuit won’t reverse things. That’s just a requisite step to denial, and then hoping the Supreme Court will hear it and that it still has a favorable majority.

It’s pretty clear, as with all demons, it hated God.

It would be foolish to assume it was alone in those sentiments, and instructive to note government suppressing such information hampers sharing knowledge on commonality indicators.

Just Here for the Ratio

We have taken the field at the Congressional Baseball Game + play has FROZEN! [More]

Yeah, you got 30 seconds of attention and made everybody hate you, while other videos show the crowd on its feet chanting “USA! USA!”

How’d your privileged leftist white boys get there? A profile on each of the arrestees’ backgrounds would be telling.

The issue I don’t see being explored: That the differences between Democrats and Republicans SHOULD be existential, and this Uniparty “friends across the aisle” sideshow is put on for a reason.
