SAF PREPARING FOR SCOTUS FALL HEARING IN VANDERSTOK CASE [More]
I’m not sure the “Authority to regulate firearms is solely in the hands of Congress” argument won’t ultimately come back to bite us. Perhaps if someone could point out which clause in the Constitution delegates the authority to override “shall not be infringed,” my worries would be quelled…

The North Carolina Court of Appeals has thrown out the conviction of a homeless man who kept guns in his car while seeking kidney treatment at UNC Hospitals in 2021. Appellate judges agreed the state law used to convict Joseph John Radomski III unconstitutionally restricted his Second Amendment rights. [More]
So, who was the @$$hole “Only One,” and what does that tell us about talking to police?
And they couldn’t find one juror to do the right thing?
As an aside, the FIJA folks need to create ballot measures to demand jury instructions be changed. Even if they don’t succeed, it will spread the word and awaken citizens to this power most don’t know they have.

You know, the one John Cornyn enabled.

In truth, we have an absolute right to keep and bear short-barreled rifles as well, and the damn tyrants denying them to us know it.
“If you take ‘the people’ at the founding of the country, that means only white property owners have the right to bear arms,” McHugh said. In that case, McHugh pointed out, neither she nor Stevenson would be allowed to bear arms today. [More]
“Allowed…”?
Ah, the old “rights are granted” fraud. That this ignoranus is sitting on a federal bench is an obscene travesty.
And no one challenged her to show where in the Consitution it said the government was delegated the authority to disarm any free person?

Because we all know whose responsibility it is to make sure you know what you’re doing.
And why stop there? I’ll bet there was no warning or safety indicator on the snorkel, and those gear manufacturers and dealers have deep pockets.
llegal protests on university campuses have already triggered a number of legal actions, but so far the lawsuits likely to be most successful, and most effective at strongly discouraging similar criminal activity in the future – class actions brought by as few as one student or faculty member – seem to be overlooked, says a class action expert. [More]
Hoist them with their own petard.
And this may be viscerally satisfying, but I think this guy’s going to regret it.

Why, will he be safe by then?
On Thursday, US District Judge Frank P. Geraci denied a request by gun-rights advocates to block enforcement of a New York law requiring ammunition sales to be handled by a licensed dealer and subject to a background check for the purchaser.

So bring back the Slave Codes while we’re at it. eh, Obama appointee?
Historical anachronisms like colonists requiring loyalty oaths from Catholics were rendered unconstitutional by the Establishment clause ratified by the Framers…
Anything to avoid “shall not be infringed” from these robed punks…
