The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a motion for summary judgment in a federal lawsuit challenging Hawaii’s ban on the acquisition and possession of firearms and ammunition for adults 18-20 years old. [More]
Great.
But the state has a virtually unlimited war chest, and 2A advocacy groups have to scramble up money from already overburdened activists.

David Hogg’s PAC spent millions on consultants, ads and fitness classes, records show: report – The Leaders We Deserve PAC vowed big money for progressive candidates, but records reveal most cash went to consultants, ads and fitness classes [More]
Oh, look, the same trademark competence he brought to Good Pillow.
Is it any wonder that when he — or the gaggle of young commies he intends to supplant Old Guard Democrats with– do get into positions of influence, chaos follow?
It’s indicative of someone who has never actually earned, but has had everything given by whining for it.
If they’re going to squander resources this way, I say encourage Democrats to send them money that could otherwise be used in more effective endeavors. Maybe start thinking of David Hogg as “Our Man in the Gun Ban Camp.”
Giuliani allies turn on GOP’s Sliwa, back Cuomo in NYC mayor race [More]
So much for Republican principles, backing a congential gun-grabber like Cuomo.
Then again so is Giuliani.
And so is Sliwa.
I see Michael Mukasey is backing Cuomo, too. That’s the same Mukasey who, when it advanced his personal interests, declared:
“Based on my own study, I believe that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms.”
Yeah, no $#!+. Yu need to be a “top man” to grok that?
They’re all self-serving weasels.
F_ New York City. Let it go full retard commie and suffer the consequences. Without bailouts.
And f_ Vichycon Republicans. Until they get serious– out of principle or out of fear, I don’t much care which at this point– they can feel our pain. Whatever they do, I’m not giving up my guns.
Will you?
So why isn’t Republican candidate Winsome Earle-Sears making the Second Amendment an issue in her campaign? [More]
So much for help us help you. Talk about handing NRA an excuse to drag its feet.
My sense is it’s coming from the Virginia GOP. I base that on Youngkin going mum on guns in his campaign, and the way Hung Cao had a chance to show courage again but ran.
Its my belief that party “professionals'” are feeding the campaigns the arrogant old Lee Atwater line, “Who else are they going to vote for?”
That, of course, is exactly the wrong advice when the race is close and you’re trying to light a fire in bellies and get low-propensity gun voters off their @$$es and to the polls. And it makes me wonder if Swamp creatures are trying to lose, and discredit those who identify more with MAGA than with “moderates” as political forces to be reckoned with.
UPDATE
Question received via email:
Can you corroborate this claim against CZ?
That would be this claim, that their Colt Canada property will be doing the government’s dirty work destroying guns confiscated in the mandatory “buy back.”
I could not find anything but allegations on X.com, by some credible people, but nonetheless uncorroborated. And the Colt Canada feed is taking some incoming, but so far they’re keeping mum.
I put the question to Google AI, which itself raises caveats about accuracy, but is nonetheless more than we’ve got so far: Is Colt Canada / CZ working with the Canadian government to destroy surrendered firearms?
Reports and online posts indicate that Colt Canada, a subsidiary of CZ, is an “external service provider” potentially involved in the testing phase for the destruction of firearms in the Canadian government’s buyback program. However, official government and company statements do not explicitly confirm this specific detail.
Yes, Colt Canada is the main and sole supplier of small arms, such as the C7 rifle and C8 carbine, to the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and is the Royal Canadian Mounted Police’s (RCMP) largest supplier of firearms, acting as the Canadian government’s “Centre of Excellence” for small arms under the Munitions Supply Program.
So, we have means, motive and opportunity.
And secrecy, with incentive to keep quiet:
Colt Canada’s capacity: Colt Canada has the capacity and security licensing to handle prohibited firearms, which makes it a potential candidate for such a contract. A recent YouTube video speculated about Colt Canada’s involvement but offered no evidence of a contract.
Government secrecy: The government has indicated it would apply measures to protect the identity of vendors to “ensure vendors do not face reprisals or retaliation”. This means any contract awarded, particularly for a controversial initiative like the gun buyback program, may not be publicly announced in a prominent way.
It would seem we have a preponderance of evidence, but guilt is not beyond a reasonable doubt. Here’s where that leave us:
It’s time for Colt Canada to address this. And at this point, even if they pull out and p!$$ off their masters, the damage has been done.
UPDATE
Their unwillingness to address this speaks volumes. This is the latest I’ve been able to find from a credible source, and he makes some good points:
“My next step is contacting my local TX AG regional office…” [More]
Really? Especially when he has the option to block?
Seems to me if you’re a group official, legitimate member contact goes with the territory. As they used to say in a union shop I was foreman in, if you can’t do the job, bid off.

USPS: I just came back from checking my PO Box and took this photo. This sign is no longer universal and a clarification is in order or else you will be deliberately posting bad information to the public. What are your plans for modifying the “No Guns” signage to clarify and comply with Judge O’Connor’s ruling in FPC v. Bondi and how soon can we expect to see that done in all of your post offices?
UPDATE

I’m delighted they immediately liked and reposted it. The question now is when are they going to actually do it?

Virginia’s Democratic attorney general nominee dodged possible jail time for driving 116 mph by logging 1,000 hours of community service — half with his own political action committee and the rest with the NAACP — after repeated court delays, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

So… basically he was ordered to campaign for himself…?
Anybody give him a breathalyzer test?
Look at these grinning useful idiot sows and gelding, who don’t give a damn how dangerous and corrupt his personal behavior was as long as he promises to disarm men they could never hope to have.
This is what Virginians are going to get if gun owners and gun groups don’t step up to the plate.

Then again, who and what can you trust when released information is curated by “authorities,” and conspiracy theories abound? As I responded to a tip about a video analysis “proving” the FBI is lying, that it was a headshot fired by a sniper hiding behind a plant that entered from behind and exited the neck, as opposed to the guy in front with the pistol:
Yeah, there is so much stuff out there, impossible to validate, from it was the Mossad to he’s still alive to Erika arranged it so she could take over…
There’s only one thing I know for sure, and it applies to just about everything we’re fed by government and media:
