A New York State of Mind

New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed two gun control bills into law, mandating secure firearm storage and expanding ammunition background checks to include state-level red flag orders. These measures aim to reduce accidental shootings and prevent prohibited individuals from obtaining ammunition. [More]

That they will do neither is hardly the point.

The Ohio state line is just a little over 46 miles from New York’s via I-90.

At least until Vivek proves himself a worse Trump nominee than Dr. Oz…

Poles Apart

It’s a Family Affair

Virginia state senator indicted, accused of leading a marijuana distribution enterprise – Federal prosecutors allege the 82-year-old Senate President Pro Tempore used her political power and committee influence to shield a family-run marijuana ring operating across Virginia. [More]

The same family that illegally brings weapons into airport terminals…?

Talk about a “true champion“!

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag!

Oregon elementary school shooter Griffin John may have developed an “obsession with Nazism” before he gunned down three young students and a teacher last week, according to a report. [More]

So… he was a socialist…?

And Mutter never noticed anything off with him before gifting him a 12 gauge for his birthday…?

We’re the Only Ones Tripling Down Enough

Prosecutors have charged an off-duty East St. Louis police officer in connection with a triple shooting earlier this week in Belleville. The St. Clair County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office has charged Jaylon Lee, 26, of Belleville, Illinois, with five counts of aggravated battery with a firearm. [More]

Does this mean he has to give back his Valor Award…?

An Age-Old Question

Massachusetts Supreme Court Upholds Age-21 Firearm Carry Restriction, Deepening Circuit Split [More]

Until SCOTUS rules and reminds lower court that they are by definition inferior courts, expect this to continue.

Then again, if that “structural reform” treasonous Dems are plotting gets legs, and if Kamala rides again, well, then, I guess reminding them will depend on us.

I’d ask how it secures the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and or Posterity to admit large segments from such cultures again, but I don’t want Stephen to call me a bigot.

Wait ’til you see what Texas will look like if shaped-by-Islamic-mystics Talarico wins…

Chink in the Armor Ban

In a first-of-its-kind Second Amendment victory, federal judge holds defensive body armor is constitutionally protected, grants FPC summary judgment, and orders permanent injunction against New York’s unconstitutional ban. [More]

Score another one for the knights.

Birds of a Feather

He launched into a full-throated rant that America needs a civil war to clean itself up. You can guess which side needs to be disarmed, run through reeducation camps, or simply removed. It was not the Biden voters. It was not the people cheering on every new gun-control bill and every new surveillance tool. It was the rest of us—the ones who still think the Second Amendment and the Fourth Amendment are both worth defending. The ones who put America first. [More]

Assimilate THIS!

The Immigration Discussion the Thought Police Won’t Let Us Have | Tom Woods Show [Watch]

There’s nothing racist about these presenters– quite the opposite. That any would characterize the truths they share a bigotry tells us all we need to know about the accusers.

Any “gun influencer” who won’t admit the danger to 2A is a useful idiot and/or a fraud. They’re lying to themselves and/or just lying to you.

More ‘Smart Politics,’ Death-Thirsting Republican Style

His Political Career Is OFFICIALLY OBLITERATED [Watch]

Completely out of touch with ” loony Heritage Americans,” Vivek Ramaswamy just blew up his campaign thinking an attack against Amy Acton by her scumbag, child-molesting, husband-enabling estranged mother was anything but a despicable idea that would backfire as soon as the history of monstrous victimization became known.

I guess JD doesn’t want to be president.

Casey Putsch weighs in and says he’ll vote for Amy.

I’m trying to reconcile that with this:

Casey Putsch for Ohio Governor: The Real Deal When It Comes to Guns

We know what Amy will try to do on guns: You don’t get Everytown’s “Gun Sense Voter” endorsement unless you’re a rabid prohibitionist, and that doesn’t add up to her “lead[ing] Ohio with compassion for everybody and our future as normal people together.” And “On the Issues” says she “favors a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens.”

We know where that leads (unless you’re an idiot and/or embedded leftist).

I can understand sitting the race out– I’ve weighed the risks Vivek presents and frankly don’t see how I’ll feel good about my choice by either filling in the bubble or leaving it blank. In the end, th0ugh, he will have brought it all on himself.

I understand the enemy inside the gates is the more dangerous one, and nothing about the fecklessness of the Ohio Republican establishment surprises me. But I’m not seeing how endorsing an anti-gun / pro-illegal immigrant Democrat is the lesser of any evils.
