.50-.50

The Stop Arming Cartels Act of 2024 will address these challenges by: Banning the manufacture, importation, sale, transfer, or possession of .50 caliber rifles excluding governmental use of these arms. Regulating .50 caliber rifles that are currently possessed lawfully under the National Firearms Act, by assigning a fee waiver and 12-month grace period to register on the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. Establishing an exception to the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), enabling victims of gun violence to sue manufacturers and dealers who engage in firearm transactions that violate the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (the “Kingpin Act”).
Prohibiting the distribution of firearms, either through sale or transfer, to individuals sanctioned under the Kingpin Act, and incorporating Kingpin Act designations into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). Mandating that firearms dealers report multiple sales of rifles to state and local law enforcement agencies, mirroring the current requirement for handguns. [More]

And what do they credit for getting their foot in the door?

…legislation that builds on the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act…

Thanks again, John!

The traitor Durbin introduced this in ’23.

This version?

0% chance of being enacted

It’s useful to know that this is part of the longterm plan, but for now our energies are better focused on more immediate threats. Still, it’s not inappropriate to remind people who weren’t around when .50s first started coming under organized attack how obnoxiously idiotic it was trying to “defend” owning .50s to the DSM as a “hobby” while simultaneously throwing hard core 2A activists under the bus.

With “pro-gun leadership” like that, is it any wonder the dual citizenship Hessian banned them in CA?

No worries: He still got their endorsement.

Playing the Race Cards

Transgender high school runner in Oregon hears boos from crowd after winning girls’ 200-meter state title [More]

There is one symbolic act girls could perform that would gain instant publicity and make it problematic for collectivist officials to retaliate:

Instead of running, take a knee and let the pretender race off by himself.

And as long as I’m on the general subject, here’s a bill Republicans could introduce in the political race to November: Prohibit trans “women” from taking advantage of woman-owned business government contract opportunities. Fake “feminist” dilemma aside, that was never their intent.

And yes, I know I generally rail against proposing do-nothing gun bills that are mere posturing and have no chance of passing, but in this case, the intent is to force Democrats to publicly oppose such a measure and then allow Republicans to exploit that in areas where the race is close.

One Thing, For Damned Sure

So how come he endorsed Joe Biden?

“Respect it”? Isn’t that what every gun-grabber claims to do, right before showing us their big “but”…?

Explain 2A to us, Dwayne. Now explain which infringements you view as “commonsense” and “reasonable.”

Low information gun owners easily enthused by meaningless buzzwords from self-serving celebrities remind me of nothing so much as this:

With the unparalleled information available to them, there’s no excuse for this. And GOA is supposed to be deeper than this.

The People’s House

Cell phone location records put Lucas inside the Capitol building the afternoon of the riots, according to the documents, as do multiple photos taken from the event. He was reportedly inside the building for 14 minutes, during which time he was seen taking a photo with a statue of former President Ronald Reagan. [More]

Sounds like “insurrection” to me!

“About the U.S. Capitol“:

The building is known as the “The People’s House” because members of Congress represent the American people.

So they were checking up on their employees…?

Good for the Goose

Trump said he was going to ‘demand a drug test’ for Biden ahead of any debates [More]

That’s a brilliant gambit.

And why shouldn’t all politicians have to? Their intrusive diktats force it on the rest of us when we apply for jobs.

Yes, younger people. There was a time when employment didn’t require being insulted by having your character challenged with an order to urinate in a cup — what a way to tell someone from the outset that you don’t trust them. And we see where normalizing assuming guilt for everyone due to the aberrations of a few has gotten us, especially with RKBA.

Cornyn Resolution a Desperate Attempt to Save Face After Being Outmaneuvered by Democrats

It’s a game Republicans play all the time, stirring up hope when they know they won’t have to make good on things and nothing will change. [More]

Much ado about nothing…

Island Life

American woman charged after ammunition found in baggage in Turks and Caicos on Mother’s Day trip: Police – Three other Americans are being held on the island over similar charges. [More]

My sympathy is restrained.

Still, I can’t help feeling thaty aa Trump State Department would be on it, as opposed to racist commie bellyacher rescuer Joe Biden letting them rot.

Slow Going Ahead

I’ve got a ton of articles building up and the stuff I do here will have to take a back seat until next week. I anticipate being busy throughout the weekend.

If I have time I’ll try to get to some of the tips that have come in since yesterday, but it will be later today if at all.

Please hold off sending more. I appreciate your contributions and don’t want anyone to feel doing so is a wasted effort.

We’re the Only Ones Endangered Enough

More than 100,000 law enforcement officers have been attacked on the job in the last two years, and more were killed in the last three years compared to any other period within the last 20 years, FBI statistics show. [More]

Now plot out where it’s most dangerous.

And for whom.

Democrat zones, eh? Say, aren’t those the guys that side with the illegals?
