The Devil in the Details

ATF Director Says Violent Criminals Are Agency’s Priority, Not Lawful Gun Owners [Watch]

Yeah, about that:

We condemn any program that involves enforcing unconstitutional “laws”, even if such “laws” are enforced only against violent criminals. Unconstitutional “laws” are illegal, harmful to public safety, tyrannical, and are inevitably enforced against ordinary, non-criminal citizens.

As for the laws they break that aren’t unconstitutional, none of those are within the purview of ATF.

Broader Questions

A Congressman’s Gun Store Is Linked to a Federal Trafficking Case. He’s Trying to Defund the ATF. [More]

Wait– so someone apparently straw purchased “more than 40 firearms from gun stores in the Athens area between September 2020 and July 2021 … at least 20 of those firearms have since been recovered by law enforcement, several in connection with violent crimes,” and “Among the firearms recovered was ONE [emphasis added] purchased at Clyde Armory, the Georgia gun store owned by Representative Andrew Clyde” and someone is trying to make the case that “rais[es] broader questions about conflicts of interest, regulatory oversight, and the intersection of private business and public office”…?

Really?

That raises broader questions with me about the motivations and political leanings of the author and his publisher:

Democrats really don’t want you defending yourself.

The Shape of Things to Come?

Major breaking news as the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in an AR-15 and magazine ban case has just entered a huge order, which I think is going to speak as to what the court is about to do. I suspect it’s going to be a big win for AR-15s and magazines. And it’s going to aid none other than the United States Supreme Court in ultimately, in my view, ruling that all bans on AR-15, semi-automatic rifles, and AK-47s, as well as ultimately magazines, all such laws are unconstitutional. And I think the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit out of New Jersey, Delaware, and Pennsylvania is going to contribute bigly to what’s about to happen. [Watch]

Here’s hoping things become so clear that even John and Amy can’t cloud them up.

I wonder why DSA removed that from their website…

We’re the Only Ones Spicing Things Up Enough

Policewoman

A Midland citizen went to City Hall requesting paperwork. He sat inside the public building for an extended period … Then a Midland Police Department officer arrived. She issued commands, placed her hands on him, and ultimately pepper-sprayed him inside City Hall… After officials reviewed the footage and saw that he had not been acting belligerently, he was released with no charges.

Sanchez…? So, what’s her full name?

I need it to “commend” her.

We’re the Only Ones Assaulting Enough

Off-duty Florida sergeant ‘stumbling drunk’ harasses elderly couple at bar, bystander jumps into action [Watch]

What a drunk. What a punk. And a sergeant, first hired in 2004, meaning he’s been showing them who he is for a long time.

So… when they terminate him does he still get to keep his pension?
