14-year-old already arrested 18 times suspected in NYC scooter shootings [More]

But we can’t tell you this public menace’s name because…?

Let him out again. Seal his record. And when some “Only One” finally puts the feral aberration down, let the “mostly peaceful protests” begin!

Tyrants Haunted by Ghosts

The Department of Justice’s Statement of Interest informs the Court that the United States has serious concerns about the proliferation of untraceable firearms easily assembled from firearm parts kits and unfinished frames and receivers. [More]

Well, yeah. If we don’t know about them, how are we expected to confiscate them?

More Equal Than Others

Prosecutors had asked for 7 years. No doubt they would have gotten it, were Paige a normal person. But since he goes around in women’s clothes, it would be transphobic to hold him accountable for his criminal behavior. [More]

Do you actually have to cut it off to get the pass or is just saying you self-identify enough?

Asking for a friend…

Gun Violence Expert Speaks Out

“Why didn’t [Gutierrez Reed] check that bullet? Why didn’t Halls obey her?” Baldwin asked. “Why did he give me the gun? Why didn’t he check? Why did he tell the crew [it was a cold gun]? … I’m pretty confident neither one of them should ever work in a film set again,” he said, adding, “I sincerely believe … [investigators are] going to say that this was an accident. It’s tragic.” [More]

It was everybody else’s fault but the guy who shot a woman to death.

Nice to see Frances Fisher making excuses for him and blaming us…

The fact remains…

3D Chess by SCOTUS on Bump Stocks?

Is the object to wait for a better case to strip much of the unrestrained rulemaking power away from all federal agencies? [Watch]

Attorney Mark W. Smith speculates on what sounds like a plausible legal scenario and setup, and says don’t abandon all hope on bump stocks. I hope he’s right.

I’ve just heard too many 3D chess claims before.

Plain Speaking

I had an understanding that there was a requirement that the law needed to be written so that an ordinary citizen could understand it. How else can you require an ordinary citizen to comply with a law? [More]

Who says the rulers want us to?

And as for the “requirements,” they’re going to have an awfully tough time when reading comprehension has been deliberately degraded in the public schools.

Just perfect!

An Exclusive Story

The 9th Circuit found that the exclusion of Crouse’s confessions at Gable’s trial was wrong and violated Gable’s due process rights. [More]

So who from the prosecution decided to exclude it and how come he’s not on trial?

South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way)

U.S. judge dismisses Mexico’s $10 billion lawsuit against gun makers, Mexico to appeal [More]

If the Republicans manage not to blow November, I’d like to see some economic retaliation for all the acts of war perpetrated against the U.S. by these bastards. Both in terms of aid and trade.

Hit ’em where it hurts. Make not playing ball the worst option.

If “we” were doing things right, it would be profitable for them to control the border.

Lessons to be Learned

He failed to outrun the taser [Watch]

I don’t know if all of you can even watch this if you’re not on Facebook — or if you have a half hour to spend on it even if you can — but I found this instructive from several points of view, starting with the “Only One’s” bullying arrogance and with the way the family, through their words and behaviors, all but guaranteed the outcome.

Don’t talk to the police.  Had that simple rule been followed there would have been no “evidence” except unprovable allegations by a party with an axe to grind.

The other thing I find instructive is a frustratingly prevalent mindset revealed in the comment by “Todd Ward.”

VanDerStok v. Garland Challenge to ATF’s ‘Frame or Receiver’ Rule Update

Because the parties contest the utility of a completed classification request, the Court DENIES Defendants’ Motion and CLARIFIES that the current injunction precludes Defendants from concluding its classification determination with respect to Tactical’s product. [More]

My legally unqualified two cents: This is a hopeful development and it has the potential, in the end, to stop a lot of the Constitutionally-unauthorized tyrannical rule nonsense in its tracks, but it only applies to this limited case and there’s still a long way to go.

Old Enough to Serve

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed a complaint in U.S. District Court in West Virginia, challenging the federal prohibition on handgun sales to young adults ages 18-20, and is asking for a declaratory judgment and injunctive relief. [More]

I’ve made my views known…

UPDATE

And here’s another SAF legal action:

SAF SUES CALIFORNIA OVER LAW SUPPRESSING GUN LAWSUITS

Hey, why should people who don’t respect the Second Amendment respect the First?

GOA and GOF Legal Updates

Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) secured a preliminary injunction yesterday against a Winchester, VA ordinance that prohibits the possession, carry, or transportation of firearms at public parks and in public areas where approved demonstrations are occurring. [More]

You take a look at the history of the place and you’ve just gotta shake your head at what those who live there now have done to it.

UPDATE

Also in this post:

Philadelphia, PA – Yesterday, lame-duck Mayor Jim Kenney signed an executive order prohibiting individuals from lawful carry at all City of Philadelphia recreational facilities. The mayor’s actions are in clear violation of Pennsylvania law prohibiting these types of local gun restrictions. Within hours of Mayor Kenney’s signing ceremony, Gun Owners of America (GOA) filed a lawsuit to enjoin enforcement of this illegal gun regulation.

Who Will Judge the Judge

The feds are moving to drop the charges in the case against Newton Judge Shelley Joseph, saying they’ve reached an agreement with the judge accused of letting an illegal immigrant out the back door to avoid ICE … Joseph has been suspended while still now being paid $207,855 a year.  [More]

Who says crime doesn’t pay? And well, if you’re in the Big Club?

Case-Sensitive

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine says in a new court filing that Metro is too sensitive a place to allow regular commuters to carry handguns, because trains and buses carry large numbers of federal workers and also D.C. school children on a daily basis. [More]

Karl must drive to work.

What’s “a historical understanding” say about this?

Falsification of Evidence?

“I can speak from personal, direct, first-hand knowledge that this is a 2-hour, 20-minute recording of people watching TV,” Moseley told The Epoch Times in a statement on Sept. 18. “This is NOT Oath Keepers at the Capitol.” [More]

I keep having this feeling that the Oath Keepers who hold out are going to be the ones who walk.
