Oh, It’s the Safety Dance

In particular, the court explained, “the text of the Second Amendment is limited to only certain arms, and history and tradition demonstrate that particularly ‘dangerous’ weapons are unprotected.” Id. at 18. “Because assault weapons are particularly dangerous weapons and high-capacity magazines are particularly dangerous weapon accessories, their regulation accords with history and tradition.” [More]

So it was the Founders’ contention that only “safe” arms were “necessary to the security of a free State”?

Secret Identity

After a manhunt, a suspect was taken into custody Monday … The person, who was unnamed, has been charged with one count of murder and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. [More]

What legitimate reason could authorities possibly have to justify not letting the citizenry know who it is? And why wouldn’t a “watchdog media” insist on the public’s right to know?

A Matter of Trust

Bexar County court records show Diaz has four other gun-related charges stemming from different incidents dating back to 2015. [More]

So, if he’s proven he can’t be trusted with a gun, what can’t he be trusted without?

No social order that denies basic truths can endure, and that seems to be the age we find ourselves in.

The Founders Knew About and Had No Problem with ‘Stabilizing Braces’

In light of the Bruen decision, where “text, history, and tradition” of the Second Amendment at the time it was written is what informs us as to what the Founders understood the right to protect, I couldn’t turn to the Borchardt – that would play right into the hands of the gun prohibitionists, who, unable to identify Founding-Era infringements have tried turning to later laws, including post-Civil War edicts intended to keep freed blacks disarmed. [More]

Looking back even further in time, we find plenty of examples from the time the Bill of Rights was ratified proving the people of the Founding Era included pistols with shoulder stocks into the broader category of “arms.”

The Second Amendment is Not a Sporting Arms Popularity Contest

CALIFORNIA CAUGHT! 700,000 Machine Guns Claim Exposed in Duncan v. Bonta Case… [Watch]

Sorry, Mr. Smith, what you, and evidently every prominent voice on “our side” continually miss is that if “in common use at the time” does not cover what is in common use by the infantry, then the Second Amendment is meaningless and all future technological developments will be denied to We the People under the false doctrine of it being “dangerous and unusual.”

And yes, machineguns ARE supposed to be protected, and the tax is a fraudulent infringement imposed by usurping rights swindlers.

It’s “every terrible implement of the soldier.”

I’m probably going to have to write (another) article to elaborate.

More Than One Way to Skin a Cat

America has 20 million AR-15 style rifles in circulation, and more guns than people in the country [More]

No, of course, they don’t have the resources to go after them via the legal system.

Which doesn’t mean they don’t have ruthless plans to eliminate threats to totalitarianism another way…

Smoke and Mirrors

” I know, and I think many of the people on your panel know, that prosecutors do not have evidence in hand linking the effort of Enrique Tarrio, Stewart Rhodes, and other lieutenants of theirs, to Donald Trump. They do not have the smoking-gun evidence that shows that Donald Trump was directing an effort to violently overthrow the government. ” [More]

Considering the charges and the punishment, it doesn’t even look like they “have the smoking-gun evidence that shows that[Stewart Rhodes] was directing an effort to violently overthrow the government.”

They’re also the loudest voices against “the law” and for disarming the rest of us.
