Wrong Thinking is Punishable; Right Thinking Will Be as Quickly Rewarded. You Will Find It an Effective Combination.
Restricting the Government from Speaking to Tech Companies Will Spread Disinformation and Harm Democracy [More]
Hey, we could be East Korea!
At least that’s what the guy who said “I personally hate gun violence and wouldn’t mind having all guns confiscated” believes.

But No One’s Talking About Taking Your Guns Redux
“We’re not going to get uniformity in this country unless there are enough lawyers who will bring on these cases – and these are very difficult cases – where it becomes unsustainable for the gun manufacturers to defend these,” Romanucci said. “Any time when there’s a mass shooting where you see a pattern, it is my belief that if there’s a viable claim, that a lawsuit should be brought so that it’s unsustainable for the gun manufacturers to defend.” [More]
It’s like they’re trying to create a talking points narrative or something…

Unlawful Infringement
Biden loses ‘ghost gun’ case, ATF ban ‘unlawful’ [More]
This is by no means a done deal, but it does raise hopes for bump stocks and stabilizing braces, and for checks and balances.

Just Like the Founders Used to Ban?
The Biden administration says its Defending new restriction on the possession of pistols with stabilizing braces parallels colonial times. [More]
Do they really want to go down that road?
This part bugged me:
He argued sawed-off shotguns are wildly inaccurate when fired, whereas braces make pistols more stable and accurate.
Does “our side” really want to go down THAT road?
2A Law
I received an email via the contact form over at my old blog about a legal firm in Florida that specializes in Second Amendment issues. [More]
I can’t say I know anything about them but it can’t hurt to know about another resource to look into. If anyone does have personal knowledge, feel free to leave a comment below.
A Good Offense
Accused J train stabber acted in self-defense, won’t face charges in fatal NYC subway brawl [More]
Now we’ll get to see if Big Apple grand juries are colorblind.

Speaking of Intellectually Flawed
A federal judge denied a motion for preliminary injunction today in a lawsuit challenging New York’s “places of worship” gun ban, saying that the Bruen test “is considered by many to be an impractical and intellectually flawed approach” [More]
You know what else is intellectually flawed?
Allowing these subversive bastards to be confirmed with a voice vote so Senators can’t be held accountable and still maintain their “A” ratings.

So Much for CSI
Monster Makers Chaining Their Creations
The US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit heard oral arguments about whether a Pennsylvania law banning 18-20 year olds from having firearms in public when a government declares an emergency violates the 2nd Amendment. [Watch]
At the very least, it violates U.S. Code.
You have to wonder what kind of treasonous, mad Democrat would demand and defend this, and the answer is the same kind whose policies have made the type of 18 -20-year-olds making daily headlines in Philadelphia inevitable.

A Self-Directed ‘Hate Crime
TRO Denied
The Walking Lead
A sporting goods store in Delaware “watched half a million rounds of ammo walk out the door”, an attorney said… The probe began over reports that significant amounts of ammunition were being stolen from Cabela’s, which at the time stored ammunition unsecured in the middle of the sales floor and “made no apparent effort to stop massive shoplifting”. [More]
Why don’t you guys just hand the Democrats more ways to spook the herd? Does the manager still have a job?
Who made the “reports”? And is it wrong to suspect “shoplifting” may not have been the problem?
Alternatively, if ammo is a “public nuisance,” what do you call food?
I gotta tell ya, this whole society makes less and less sense to a “S’cuse me, you dropped your wallet” kinda guy like me.

Law for the Lawless
The SPLC declined to comment when asked whether Jurgens changed into black-bloc-style clothing and whether he physically attacked police officers or equipment during the assault on Cop City. The SPLC declined to specify whether it had any evidence that Jurgens had remained peaceful. [More]
Of course, they’ll take full advantage of the burden of proof, something they don’t practice with those they publicly condemn as “haters.”

We’re the Only Ones Susceptible Enough
Police in California are not immune from civil lawsuits for misconduct that happens while they investigate crimes, the state Supreme Court ruled this week, overruling a precedent made by lower courts that had helped protect law enforcement from litigation for decades. [More]
Good. Maybe. Before cheering too loudly, consider the inevitable increased lawlessness and demands for more citizen disarmament.

The ‘Conservative’ Majority
Supreme Court rules against man given 27 years in prison on gun charges [More]
If you’d told me I would side with Ketanji Brown Jackson against Clarence Thomas I’d have said you were nuts, albeit my reasons are different from hers.

Rotten to the Core
At the center of this case is whether the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (“ATF”) properly interpreted the term “machinegun,” as defined in 26 U.S.C. § 5845(b), to include items known as non-mechanical bump stocks. [More]
And at the center of that is the question of where the hell any branch of government has the legitimate authority to infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms.

The lawsuit follows. Readers are encouraged to set aside the time to go through it completely to understand the totality of events that happened and are still happening to a citizen attempting to comply with police orders, and to know if it can happen to Jason Kloepfer it can happen to any of us.

That this story hasn’t been headline national news tells us much.
