Notes from the Resistance
Last summer, I reported that A British group of eco-zealots group called “The Tyre Extinguishers” were active in this country and claimed they’ve deflated tires on dozens of SUVs in several major cities, including New York, Chicago, and the Bay Area. The group appears to be back again this spring, and vandalized over 40 SUVs in the Boston area. [More]
In Democrat cities that embrace their nonsense…?

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a federal bureaucracy with a vast jurisdiction, is testing a novel approach to crime and punishment. In a lawsuit against Townstone Financial, a small Chicago-area nonbank mortgage firm, the CFPB is signaling that it may attempt to punish anyone who complains about neighborhood crime. [More]
Or will be if they respond to baiting…

The Columbus Division of Police is missing around 160,000 rounds of ammunition meant for their officers [More]
That’s some chain of custody control there, fellas. So ATF’s not involved?
“5.56 ammo”? For “patrol rifles,” no doubt.

Gun Idolatry Is Destroying the Case for Guns [More]
I’ve made no secret of my disdain for The French Mistake. By the same token, we must never forget that, while we can appreciate them, it’s not about guns, it’s about freedom.

New York citizen with 0 criminal record posts photos of a 3D printed AR lower on Reddit. NYPD (and presumably other agencies) magically have all of his credit card records and internet history within days showing “parts” purchases to complete the receivers. NYPD costume-wearing domestic terrorists in uniform show up and arrest the citizen. Seize over $22k worth of his property (including body armor claiming it was “firearm-related”). 6 months later all charges dropped. No items were returned. $10k+ in attorneys fees incurred. [More]

Rep. Mark Takano Believes We Need To ‘Balance’ The Second Amendment When It Comes To Gun Legislation [Watch]
“Balance” being everything Bloomberg demands now, with more to come once it’s “safe” to mention it…

“There is broad agreement that dangerous, unstable individuals who intend to harm themselves or others should not have access to weapons. We also share a strong commitment to preserving Second Amendment rights, ensuring due process and addressing the heart of the problem with strengthened mental health resources.” [More]

Former gun industry executive: I saw with ‘my own eyes’ how NRA ‘radicalized’ gun debate [Watch]
That’s funny. From what I saw, they’ve continually had to be dragged in.
The ones who “radicalized” it were the ones demanding we surrender our freedom aided and abetted by Juda$e$ like Busse.
Note all the supportive comments from self-described “gun owners.” Aside from having no proof of that, even if some are, it’s part of a larger divide-and-conquer strategy. Watching and agreeing with CNN on guns should tell us all we need to know about their priorities.

“It was astonishing that people did not do the research of what they were voting for, and they trusted the government to be honest to them when they said it was safe schools and safe streets, because everybody’s for that,” Bianco said. “But we were lied to.” [More]
Everybody moral and sane is for an end to crime, violence, war, poverty, world hunger, disease, immorality, and unhappiness, too. It’s just some of us have a way of going about working toward those goals that doesn’t involve lying and coercing hostages at gunpoint to feed a psychotic lust for power.
Those people put ruling over the rubble they cause above all else.

If that’s a machine gun, this is cocaine. I got from the NIH, they’re giving it away. [More]
Need a bigger fix?
There’s nothing more destructive and deadly than power addiction.
Illegal aliens who are LGBTQ ‘may not be detained’ under Democrats’ new bill – Democrats said current detention rules strip aliens of their humanity and due process [More]
And just accommodating this isn’t good enough. You have to embrace it if you don’t want us to destroy you. Which we’ll get around to eventually regardless…

I don’t see his “solution” of a “one-year service obligation” working, either.
Got a contingency plan?
Caribbean Community leaders have agreed on plans to introduce bans in their countries on assault-style weapons mostly manufactured in the U.S. to curb spikes in gun violence and weapons smuggling in the 15-nation Caricom bloc… However, Davis did not have figures on what percentage of the seized guns were assault-style weapons as opposed to handguns or other weapons that would be unaffected by this week’s proposed ban.

Look at us! We’re DOING something!

Review: The History of Bans on Types of Arms Before 1900 [More]
In short, if the grabbers are looking for something from the Founding Era to support “historical context” to justify an “assault weapon” ban, they’re not going to find it.
It figures that the lame argument that no one considered the Second Amendment to be an individual right until recently proves to be the exact opposite of the truth. That’s because all the citizen disarmament zealots have are lies.
Then in a surprise move, the board elected Bob Barr to replace Willes Lee as First Vice President. [More]
Who better than a Lautenberg Amendment fanboy?
I remember when me ‘n Mike used to take all kinds of heat from the “prags” over calling NRA management out. Now it’s tough to find anyone on the outside excusing them.
