We’re the Fauxnly Ones Mimetic Enough

Cherokee County man arrested after driving car resembling law enforcement vehicle, sheriff [More]

Creepy-lookin’ old f_, isn’t he? The leg shackles are a nice touch…

As always, be aware of how commonplace this phenomenon is because one day you may need an “I didn’t believe he was a real cop” defense.

All This Can Be Yours

Newsstand: West Virginia’s Machine Gun Litmus Test for States Claiming Second Amendment Allegiance, Ramaswamy’s Ohio Governor Bid and the 2A, Casey Putsch for Ohio Governor: The Real Deal When It Comes to Guns. These stories by Darwin Nercessian and David Codrea. [More]

I already posted my Shameless Plug.

In re the Casey Putsch story, the digital version has been online since April 3 and the physical mag hit the stands/was mailed to subscribers a few days before the primary.

Timing is Everything

Massie’s ex-girlfriend alleges he arranged her Capitol Hill job, then offered $5,000 to drop termination suit – Allegations surface as Massie faces a bruising Kentucky primary challenge from Trump-backed Ed Gallrein [More]

I guess it’s easier than debating him.

And with the critical implications of these allegations, does no one find this curious and worth investigating?

Who is he? What are his interests? How has the media vetted him for credibility?

Keystone Cop-Outs

Democratic Pennsylvania state Rep. Dan Frankel introduced HB 2506 Monday, which would wipe out the state’s firearms preemption law, allowing local governments to enact their own restrictions on how gun owners could carry, transport, purchase or possess firearms. The legislation, introduced alongside HB 2505, also would repeal the state’s version of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, potentially opening gun manufacturers to lawsuits over the actions of criminals. [More]

Well… this is helpful.

Not the first time I’ve noticed.

If Wishes were Fishes

Why Secession Is The Only Answer To The American Megastate [More]

I can’t argue with his indictments. It’s just that I see no viable movement with a plan, organization, supporters, and resources to make this work any better than last time.

Which is why the Three Percent is still the best fail-safe, so naturally, the most disparaged.

Inconstant Heart

The Trump Administration Is a Powerful but Unreliable Ally of Second Amendment Advocates – Even as the Justice Department files lawsuits aimed at vindicating gun rights, it undermines them in other cases. [More]

I’d use a different word than “unreliable”…

I wonder what it would take to fix that

It’s ‘Gun Rights Leader’-Approved!

A Florida gun owner says he spent two weeks in jail because the government’s background-check machinery treated an old Kentucky misdemeanor as if it were a felony. [More]

NICS… isn’t that the prior restraint infringement hailed by NSSF as a “real solution,” and “applauded” by NRA…?

And endorsed by Bloomberg’s The Trace…?

Back to the Drawing Board

The Supreme Court of Maryland has found Montgomery County does not have the authority under state law to prohibit wear-and-carry permit holders from bringing guns within 100 yards of certain public places… It now heads back to the Montgomery County Circuit Court in Rockville for further proceedings…   [More]

Not exactly the “HUGE WIN!” some are calling it…

While Rome Burns

But…but…but she’s a Gun Sense Candidate (as well as a radical communist sympathizer, so figure that one out).

It looks like Spencer Pratt thinks “You can never have enough guns in your house.”

Don’t worry, our illustrious leaders are hard at work making political ads like this illegal (anybody see a disclaimer or AI/satire notice?). Figures Brian Fitzpatrick would be on board to give Democrats the fraudulent claim of being “bipartisan.”

Not a Good Look

They seem like reasonable questions for voters to want answers to.

Then again, I thought all mine were, too, and while he answered some, he ignored others.

It didn’t have to be this way.

And once more, NRA shows it has learned nothing:

They’re still smarting over the last time they tried to f_ him over with a fraudulent replacement because they wanted to insert Fix NICS into the reciprocity bill.

Next time NRA begs you for money, tell them you’re sending it to Massie instead.

The Bestest Infringements Ever!

Electronic record-keeping would become the default under another proposed rule, which would allow Form 4473s and Acquisition and Disposition Records to be generated, stored, and maintained electronically. Not only would this make record-keeping more convenient for dealers, but it would also improve firearm tracing for law enforcement since digital records are faster and easier to search than paper files. [More]

What could go wrong? Especially if administrations change…?

I’m wondering why this is listed under “Big Wins for Gun Owners”…

There I go blackpilling again.

Look, I get that there is only so much they can do because “law,” and think I understand incrementalism as well as the next guy, but the way I see “gun influencers” gushing over this and over Cekada makes some apologists for and abettors in infringements.

There are ways to encourage moves to roll back the oppression that don’t require gun owners to end up with sore knees and from a lot of what I’ve seen, Anon has a point.
