Notes from the Resistance
Say goodbye to your favorite FFL because your state legislature is about to run them all out of business. Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses HB 2118, which is now set to be put on the floor in the Senate tonight, and is expected to pass. [Watch]
Fortunately, the black market won’t have to comply with any of this targeted harassment.

The Uvalde police who stood in the hall for over an hour as over 40 children and teachers were shot (21 died) were quick to arrest parents of the victims like Brett Cross for making public outbursts at County Commissioners they accuse of a coverup. [More]
Bear has something to say about that.

Gun Control Activists Claim to Have the ‘Spirit of the Law’ on Their Side in Bump Stock Case [More]
Is that anything like the Spirit of Aloha?
Or the Talking Dead?
No wonder they’re so obsessed with “ghost guns”!

The Democrats are going to partner with this and they’re going to tie to this at their own demise. [Watch]
If that’s so, remember your Napoleon.
But also, if bigger issues are the economy and the border, they need a distraction in up-for-grabs states.

Police find scores of guns at French star Delon’s home [More]
It’s sounds like he’s far enough gone to where there’s no point in hauling him in, and whichever squabbling heir thought it would work to their advantage to rat him out is going to see the estate diminished in fines.
I guess he wasn’t about to be Charlie, either.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

Right, take another paid day off and cut back on 911 calls.
I’d say they’ve got the lingo down.

Judge Overseeing Case to Release Covenant Killer Manifesto Warns of Contempt If Parties ‘Usurp’ Sealed Materials [More]
What filthy politics must be in play for this to even be an issue on as story of such public importance that’s being exploited to ratchet down on our rights?
If I had the information, I’d defy this robed tyrant in an instant and protect my sources to the end.

This puts journalists in an interesting position. If I reach out to the neighbor for her side of the story, a judge can jail Jeremy. In essence, a judge in Florida is restricting the right of the press to get to the heart of a story through threats of removing the liberty of the subject of the story… One of the worst things the judge has done to Jeremy and his girlfriend is to restrict Jeremy’s movements on his own property without hearing the facts of the case…Worse, his Second Amendment rights have been removed with no evidentiary hearing to decide if he is actually a threat. Meanwhile, he says he’s been threatened by the neighbor and her associates with all manner of bodily harm. He is also prohibited from hiring security due to the injunction, as he cannot be around anyone with guns. [More]
That would be Judge Craig C. DeThomasis, a DeSantis appointee.
At least we know where to turn up the heat.

It’s not his money and there’s always plenty more.
Democrats don’t even want you to have a stick.

What I think really happened is that his volunteers decided they were there to boss people around, and started harassing others for breaking what everyone knows are stupid regulations. [More]
Why is my first thought of Jay Santos and the Citizens Auxiliary Police?

Of course, there’s not a chance in hell…
And the real action is coming from the other side.
The man I personally observed a few weeks ago was classic Trump, and on top of his game. You tyry talking as long as he does and not flub something up. Democrats and the media, but I repeat myself, are taking misstatements he’s always made and blowing it into a countermeasure against Joe Biden’s very real dotage.

Hundreds of thousands just took to the streets to protest against the socialist regime in Brazil and if not for X, you wouldn’t know about it [More]
I hate to say I told you so.

California argues that, under the Gun Control Act, a receiver or frame can be considered a firearm because such pieces are “designed to or may readily be converted” into functional weapons. [More]
Shoot, I can instantly convert all kinds of things into a functional weapon.
The state calls ghost guns the “weapon of choice” for gun traffickers, gangs and political extremists, and says the Golden State has had to incur significant costs to regulate the guns because ATF is not doing so.
Talk about a term of convenience!

Don’t you just love it when NFL enablers lecture us on guns?
The two letters show opposite assumptions about reality and the role of governments. The NY letter assumes guns are bad, and ordinary citizens should not have guns, because ordinary citizens do bad things with guns. The letter from the 28 states assumes government is subordinate to the people, government must defend the nation, and an armed population aids the government in defending the nation against all enemies. These two assumptions about reality are in direct conflict. [More]
We are, in fact, two countries divided by the fundamental difference of principle on the question: Does the government serve the people, or do the people serve the government?
