Neither Rain, Nor Snow, Nor Government Bans…

In granting summary judgment in favor of SAF, the court granted both declaratory and injunctive relief, declaring the ban unconstitutional and preventing its enforcement for the plaintiffs, including SAF members. Originally filed in June 2024, the lawsuit challenges the ban on firearms carry in U.S. Post Offices and on postal property. SAF is joined in the case, FPC v. Bondi, by the Firearms Policy Coalition and two private citizens. [More]

So, all of these?

And for all of us or just “plaintiffs, including SAF members”?

Why did “pro-gun” Pam Bondi have to be sued? Why didn’t she stand down, or better, denounce the ban and side with plaintiffs?

And will she appeal?

Know Your Enemy

The businesses listed below have Anti-Gun policies and many work actively to subvert your personal safety and civil rights. [More]

I didn’t see any there that couldn’t easily be boycotted or substituted for.

Unfortunately, don’t expect most gun owners to care enough to do anything about it, including expanding the list when new anti-gun businesses are found, notifying fellow gun owners, or doing something so simple as challenging businesses publicly on their social media feeds with this:

Yeah, I know, they “won’t do social media.” Or view it as advocacy media, another tool in the kit, another chair in the bar fight…

Or do much of anything else…

Who’s “our” real enemy, again?

The One Most Significant Takeaway

Thomas Jacob Sanford was named by authorities as the man who rammed a Chevy Silverado truck into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, before opening fire on the hundreds of worshipers gathered there. [More]

Even as they uncover (and curate!) more information on the suspect and his motives, the most important fact to take away from this is and will continue to be:

“CHURCHES ARE DEDICATED FOR THE WORSHIP OF GOD AND AS HAVENS FROM THE CARES AND CONCERNS OF THE WORLD. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF CURRENT LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS, THE CARRYING OF LETHAL WEAPONS ON CHURCH PROPERTY, CONCEALED OR OTHERWISE, IS PROHIBITED.”

Even Democrat gun prohibitionist Gretchen Whitmer’s state of Michigan still allows concealed carry license holders to be armed in churches. It is LDS leadership that controlled the defenselessness of all but satanic predators and “Only Ones.”

And speaking of satanic…

This is pure speculation on my part, with no other inputs to go by, but prepare yourself if this photo indicates attacker fury over refugee resettlement funding, and if so, expect Democrats and the media to have a field day against ICE and those of us warning against the dangers weaponized immigration poses to heritage culture.

Per Drudge headline: “MAGA Maniac.”

Links to this.

In all the celebratory finger-pointing noise that will follow, keep hitting on the most important point: Self-imposed gun-free zone.

And a Little Child Shall Lead Them?

The Lansing School District announced that the child will face “disciplinary action” for his bravery. Why? Because the district’s beloved “zero tolerance” policy doesn’t distinguish between a kid wielding a gun and a kid taking it away to save lives. [More]

It’s statement says reports are selective and there are other unreported circumstances privacy policy will not let them disclose, so out of deference to due process and judging facts I’ll suspend my bias against Democrat public school teachers and administrators, and withhold a verdict until more is known. Which is more than many of them would do for me.

Meanwhile, Over on the Road to Damascus…

South Dakota Democratic lawmaker switches registration to Republican – South Dakota Rep. Peri Pourier indicated that the key pillars of the GOP line up ‘with the principle of tribal sovereignty’ [More]

Whaddya know, she’s not a kneejerk gungrabber:

Pourier says school gun bill protects children… “As a mother, I worry about school shootings every day. So, I have to explain to everyone why did I vote for this bill. I’m gonna tell you if there was a school shooting in Wanblee, South Dakota, it would probably take more than an hour to respond.”

Seems pretty commonsense to me…

The Man in the Arena

Congressman Massie Introduces Bill to Repeal Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act [More]

Sixth time since 2015’s a charm?

Unfortunately, out of all those “pro-gun” Republicans there are only 13 co-sponsors and the prognosis says there’s a “1% chance of being enacted.”

Funny, how our best-Second-Amendment-president-ever’s primary concern is getting rid of Massie...

Even funnier that the NRA tried to torpedo him.

Cracking the Code

Fun fact about Charlotte’s transit system – you aren’t allowed to concealed carry even with a permit. They have no security on the train or buses, but you aren’t allowed to protect yourself. [More]

Look at everything they equate it with:

Kinda makes you not want to take the train even if they don’t let feral savages on… although, in truth, who else would you need to tell not to do some of this stuff (not that the ones who need to be told would ever listen)?

A Small Price to Pay

Good, but will the state appeal? And when when are they going to suffer punitive damages?

Not that any of it comes out of the pockets of those responsible…

Donald Trump Can Rein in Army Corps of Engineers on Guns

These lands belong to the people, and the people have the right to keep and bear arms. [More]

As Commander-in-Chief, this would be an easy and very popular fix with gun owners. Republicans facing midterms and “gun rights” groups take note how this would benefit you and get behind this now.

Lather, Rinse, Repeat

Democratic lawmakers propose campus gun ban to improve safety at Wisconsin colleges [More]

Because nothing says “No Predators Allowed” like Gun-Free Zones!

I don’t suppose Wisconsin Democrats would also require these and have the Party indemnify schools found liable to pay out?

I guess we could ask Kelda…

And Leave the Disarming to Us!

US appeals court reverses lower court, approves Illinois ban on carrying firearms on public transit [More]

No doubt when he commutes, Biden appointee Judge Joshua Kolar is “comfortably situated” in a private luxury vehicle and doesn’t need submit himself and his loved ones to this.

We’re the Only Ones Distinguished Enough

Trump suggests ‘distinguished’ ex-military teachers could carry weapons at schools [More]

So… a new category of “Only Ones“…?

That’s not a FASTER requirement, and the program’s been working great.

It’s not a 2A requirement, either.

I gotta get this serial administration cheerleader some pom poms.

Related UPDATE

Fortunately, there’s a Constitutional alternative:

H.R. 5066: Safe Students Act – To repeal the Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990 and amendments to that Act.

If at first you don’t succeed…

Unfortunately:

Prognosis 1% chance of being enacted

That and the guy floating unequal protection calls Massie “a third-rate Grandstander” (as opposed, I suppose, to a first-rate one?) and wants him out.

Under the Illusion

Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is kicking off the new school year with safety as its top priority and a new layer of security. The school district announced that it will begin implementing its weapon detection screening program at school board regular business meetings. [More]

Because nothing says “safe spaces” like a “gun-free zone”!

And if an armed maniac decides to go through the detectors guns blazing…?

No comment from the Lairds…?
