Adventures in Baselessness

DOJ in Full-Blown Panic as Wisconsin Towns Thornapple and Lawrence Ditch Electronic Voting Machines in Favor of Hand Count — DOJ Threatens to File Lawsuit [More]

So much for that “home rule” the antis are always bawling about when theyre not trying to impose infringements everywhere on everyone in Everytown…

Setting Precedent

Specifically, I’m going to explain how the legal theories they are advancing before the United States Supreme Court in the VanDerStok case dealing with quote unquote ghost guns, which are unserialized firearms and gun gun parts. how theATF’s position with the Biden/Harris Administrations arguments are exactly that they’re setting the precedent for declaring that AR-15s are machine guns and can be banned because they cannot be added to the NFA register… [Watch]

Exactly what some of us have been arguing the bump stock ban opened the door for, which makes it curious that he’s one of the ones arguing — without contemporaneous documentation — that Trump’s ban was a brilliant 3D chess move.

Back to Square One

Gee, I wonder what happens next.

Speaking of Criminals at Heart…

Fort Smith man sentenced to prison for tax charges must forfeit over 3,000 guns seized by authorities – Mehta was heard saying “I’m sorry for my actions, I’ve never been violent, and I’m not a criminal at heart,” during court proceedings. [More]

He still thinks this is about fighting crime?

That oughta give all the oath-breaking infringers a good laugh.

While the Iron is Hot

Major breaking news: Attorney General Merrick Garland and his solicitor general are trying to strike while the iron is hot, so they think. They have just requested of the United States Supreme Court that the court take a series … of cases involving Second Amendment challenges … basically trying to take advantage of what they think is a huge win for them in the Rahimi case… [Watch]

It was a huge win. It showed just how malleable all the “good” Bruen judges, with the exception of Clarence Thomas, are.

And like all jackals, emboldened when they sense weakness, they move the circle in to attack.

Fun Times in Cleveland Again

New center to help prevent gun violence coming to Cleveland [More]

Nice parroting of the government’s narrative, “real reporter” Julia Bingel.

Looking forward to the follow-up in a year on how it all came true.

At least we’re not Detroit.

Commonsense LEGO Safety Laws

“We’re here to talk about a roughly one-inch piece of plastic. It looks innocuous enough, a little like a LEGO or a k’nex block. But this one-inch piece of plastic is killing people,” said Leigha Simonton, the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Texas. “Machine gun conversion devices can turn Second Amendment-protected firearms into illegal weapons of war, and petty criminals into brutal killers. We cannot have our streets turned into war zones.” [More]

So the federal government has the authority to ban a one-inch piece of plastic– just like the Founders intended. And it’s killing people… does this broad ever listen to herself?

What the hell does Simpleton think “Second Amendment-protected firearms” were intended to be?

For the Children

However, she neglected to mention that the documents disclosed were not patient charts, were redacted to protect sensitive patient information, and complied with HIPAA, which permits anonymized information to be disclosed generally, and even protected information can be publicized if it’s used to stop egregious medical misconduct. [More]

Prosecutor Tina Ansari sounds like a vicious piece of… work.

It’s like the DOJ attracts sadists who get off on terrorizing anyone they can victimize, and especially anyone who recognizes them for what they are.
