Notes from the Resistance
Yesterday, New Mexico gun owners won a huge victory at the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in the case Ortega v Grisham. The lawsuit was brought on behalf of several New Mexico residents supported by the NRA, Mountain States Legal Foundation and other groups. The plaintiffs attempted to buy a gun on the first day the 7-day firearm waiting period law went into effect last year. While they passed the background check and paid for their firearms, they were not able to take their guns home with them due to the new law. [More]
We’ve already touched on this but I though it best to hear directly from the people affected.

Sounds like they’re going to fix it, which means they recognize it needs to be fixed, which means all those giving excuses that it’s not important and not to worry our pretty little heads about it were just blowing hot air.
And yeah, I’ve been the only one ’til now, but Nicholas is the one who got a response.

March for Our Lives has been rocked by divisions, layoffs, and — most recently — a lawsuit alleging racism and retaliation. [More]
That’s pretty rich, considering the views of the racist their funding comes from:
“Bloomberg claimed that 95 percent of murders fall into a specific category: male, minority and between the ages of 15 and 25. Cities need to get guns out of this group’s hands and keep them alive, he said.”
Let’s see if Facebook lets this stay up:

Bryan Kohberger, the former criminology Ph.D. student who killed four University of Idaho undergrads in a 4 a.m. home invasion ambush, is complaining to prison guards that other inmates are threatening to sexually assault him and pleading for a transfer to another wing of the prison, according to a new report.

While I understand why some are inclined to gladly view a tortured, terrified soul as fitting karma, and actual victimization as justice, think it through– those providing compulsory custodial care have an obligation to ensure the safety of their charges. I’d like to see a duty to protect, with real and personal legal consequences for exploitation, negligence, deliberate indifference, and failure. Because it could be you or me in gen pop for getting caught defying a “gun charge” or defending ourselves against a raging, out of control “Only One.”
The fact that inmate endangerment of assault, rape, and murder, is not only an issue, but a universal expectation, tells us much about the corruption and incompetence characteristic of total government control.

Yes, guilty until proven innocent, but if the former, we have to be the ones demanding to hang him higher — on everything but the gun charges — than anyone.
Jeez, and the cock hasn’t even crowed once…
And to think Prags used to accuse me or Mike of making us all look bad for calling out rights rapists and insisting on “shall not be infringed” with consequences for violations…

JD Vance went from calling President Trump “a literal Hitler,” to appreciating Trump’s incredible leadership, a remarkable shift in opinion. [More]
Yeah, some of us kinda noticed that.:
“Senate hopeful J.D. Vance apologizes for criticizing Trump as ‘reprehensible’ in deleted tweets,” CNN reported. “Vance wrote in 2016 that he would not vote for Trump in the presidential election and instead] support Evan McMullin, a former CIA operations officer who ran as an independent.”… in 2020, McMullin endorsed open borders, pathway-to-citizenship gun-grabber Joe Biden.
What JD sincerely believes and what his benefactors want him to advocate are problematic to discern.
