Well, yeah. Answering directly, truthfully, and completely would not be a good look.
Although, truthfully, if Republicans, when in power, didn’t prosecute the JBTs over hundreds of dead Mexicans, what are the chances, if they don’t blow it in November, that they’ll strap ’em on over one airport administrator?

And NRA darling Greg Abbot doesn’t regret endorsing him.

Sounds Like Nothing a Little Citizen Disarmament and Tax-Funded ‘Youth Mentoring’ Won’t Fix
Seven people between the ages of 15 and 20 were shot, according to police. [More]
And with no arrests, ther’s no other information to share with us at this time…? Not even descriptions to warn the public to look out for…?
Naturally, “Lansing Mayor Andy Schor issued a statement calling for more state and federal action on gun control…”
He sounds like a broken record.
The grabbers all do…

I know we’re not supposed to ask this, but how many would you need?
And I wonder how WA’s police minister, Paul Papsmear, would react to: “This individual, sadly, was a fit and proper person, right up until the time he committed that act and he was a law-abiding police official right up until he wasn’t”… ?

I see they don’t like the First Amendment any more than they do the Second.
Why someone is attacking me becomes irrelevant when the immediate object is to stop him. Their grief does not legitimize their demand to send lethal force equipped enforcers after me to take my property and abridge my rights.
It’s a shame to see them exploited as useful idiot pawns by the cultural Marxists.

Common Cause
Let me also respond to your “in common use” argument. There is no “in common use” tradition. [More]
The Second Amendment does not say “the right of the people to keep and bear arms in common use at the time shall not be infringed.” If it had, the Anti-Federalists would have told the Framers to go to hell.
Dangerous and Unusual? It’s a lie and does not exist. [More]
Interesting reading that also links to “The Historical Tradition and Analogue Lie in Bruen“…
As for this charge, I’d need to see links, specifics and context. What citizen disarmament edicts has Mark W. Smith endorsed? My biggest disgreement with him — and other prominent 2A attorneys — so far has been when they say stuff like ATF doesn’t have the authority but Congress does. Huge deferring to stare decisis vs. “shall not be infringed” hole, that one, but even there that doesn’t mean he’d be for a ban, and for the most part I think he’s been among the best, especially with his insights into SCOTUS.
If Not a Pillar of Support at Least a Fifth Column…
Mad? Sad? Inspired? Fired up and ready to take action? You don’t need to wait for an organization to start a petition on an issue that’s important to you. Start your own petition right now. It will just take a few minutes, and we’ll be here to support you. [More]
If I had time, I might try to see what kind of “support” they’d give me for “Repeal the NFA,” or… ?
If anyone cares to try, let us know what happens.
Always Think Forfeiture
The latest high court action came in a 6-3 decision in Culley v. Marshall, where the justices held that there are “no due process protections for citizens in asset forfeiture proceedings to have an early court hearing to contest the government keeping possession of their seized property while they await trial.” [More]
“6-3″…? The Democrats voted right and the “pro-gun” judges voted wrong…?
What’s a government with an unlimited war chest stripping innocent-until-proven-guilty defendants of resources to defend themselves have to do with guns?
Ask the Reese family (and you’ll need to use the Wayback Machine to access my old Gun Rights Examiner links.)

Man or Mouse?

It’s All an Act
Before you chime in with what you think “Biden should do” perhaps you should understand the actual legal process that The Refugee Act of 1980 says must take place… [More]

The Greater Issue
Not Reading the Room
“If I wasn’t a libertarian I am now,” he said… He pledged to put a libertarian in his cabinet if he wins the election… [More]
As what? He realizes they demand open borders…?
Political freedom and escape from tyranny demand that individuals not be unreasonably constrained by government in the crossing of political boundaries. Economic freedom demands the unrestricted movement of human as well as financial capital across national borders.
A few of them have dismissed my challenge outright, or tried to change the subject or talk around it by introducing new arguments that evade its points, but none have answered it.
Because they can’t and they know it.
And what’s with sharing the anarchy symbol adopted by Marxist Antifa?
It’s consistent with the Ⓐsshole who shouted “Donald Trump should have taken a bullet!”not being publicly identified, thrown out of the convention, and expelled from the Party. Instead, the “boos and heckling” were reserved for Trump.
Face it: The ones who would vote for RFK will hurt Biden more.
Speaking or not reading a larger room, the ever-suicidal and irrelevant LP hierarchy instead nominated a true believer who is bound and determined to make it an even bigger clown show with his full-throated endorsement of “drag queen story hours.”

Cooper’s Rule 3 Notwithstanding
That’s when store owner Valerio appears in the video and can be seen trying to pistol-whip Pullatasi, who then drops to the ground having been shot. [More]
Regardless, it sure looks like he’d have been justified if the shot had been intentional. Basically, he got in trouble for trying to be merciful.
Military Cemetery Gun Bans an Affront to Patriots Who Died Fighting for Freedom
There is no valid reason the government can give that should supersede the rights of deceased veterans’ survivors, certainly nothing that would comply with the Bruen standard of history, text, and tradition at the time the Constitution was ratified. [More]
Kinda puts the lie to those Lee Greenwood lyrics…
Democrats Continue to Place Criminals Above Citizens, Exploiting That to Ban Guns
They rely on violent crime so that they have blood to dance in, to whip up mob furor among constituents ignorant and stupid enough to vote for them. [More]
Why punish their constituents when they can punish you?
And the Winners Will Be…
However, it appears that there are sufficient numbers to call most races. The outcome is decidedly “mixed.” [More]
Yep, buckle up.
