Notes from the Resistance
“I think we have to have some serious conversations about something that’s not popular. Everybody doesn’t need a gun.” [More]
Why would an arrogant official who thinks citizens don’t “need” a gun think they need any other rights?
Colorado governor seeks reversal of federal judge’s decision to block new law banning gun sales to anyone under 21 – Lawyers for Jared Polis last week asked Chief U.S. District Judge Philip Brimmer to postpone his preliminary injunction against the law until the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decides an appeal to the ruling [More]
I wonder if they’d feel mercy was due the other side if the situation were reversed…

They know it won’t pass– it’s just part of all the hysterical election noise they’re raising to confuse and overwhelm low-information voters.

The lawsuit, brought Tuesday by the nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety and exclusively obtained by NBC News, names multiple defendants, including YouTube and Reddit, online spaces where the shooter was allegedly radicalized, as well as the retailer that sold the shooter’s gun and the manufacturer of his body armor. The suit, which also names the shooter’s parents, was filed in New York Supreme Court. [More]
Leaving no right left unturned… and I wouldn’t exactly call that a Fragrance…
It’s not too much of a leap to anticipate the day when all of us can be sued and even criminally prosecuted for expressing pro-RKBA sentiments, just like those who express election doubt sentiments…

I found a suitable theme song for them.
From Denver, another tragic story about cops shooting and killing someone holding a “weapon” that turned out to actually be a harmless object. In this case, an officer with the Denver Police Department (DPD) shot and killed a man armed with a marker. The officer (whose name has not been released) said she believed that 36-year-old Brandon Cole had been holding a knife when she shot him on the evening of August 5. [More]
Unmarked, unnamed, unaccountable…

“We remind the court that the Second Amendment refers to a right ‘of the people’ without mentioning age, and certainly young adults fall within the definition of ‘the people’ ever since they’ve been allowed to vote, and generations before that when they were considered part of the militia, and have been accepted into the military.” [More]
They’re not just “considered.” They’re recognized by law.

Including that bio snip to presume he knows what he’s talking about on the right to keep and bear arms is what psychologists call “false authority” or “expert fallacy.“
And the danger to liberty of blindly following “war heroes” should be self evident.

I’ll give it another shot.
Biden preps rollout of expanded background checks as part of major gun safety push into 2024 [More]
They perceive “gun control” is now a winning issue and are doing a major and massively-funded push to stir up the useful idiots to demand more infringements. And they’re branching out to Everytown, including yours.
They don’t care if things get tied up in post-Bruen court challenges — they have the tax plunder resources to sustain the long run, and they’re counting on using every trick in the book — from the superhighway to citizenship to prosecuting Trump, to more outright election steals to get the majority needed to populate SCOTUS with apparatchiks like in Illinois.
Don’t look for any but a handful of Republicans to go on offense.
Ultimately, it’s going to boil down to a percentage of the populace reviled by Democrats and their DSM water carriers saying “No.”
They’re going to force it on us. On you.

I do wonder why the customers took off, because that won’t work out well for them when identified. Still, they did demonstrate that when it comes to stopping multiple predators, a “weapon of war” sure does the trick.
