Location, Location, Location

A recent back-and-forth crime spree involved three St. Louis County teens reportedly stealing cars, which culminated in a shooting. The trio was arrested in on the eastern side of the river, where they were not going to be prosecuted. So, police brought the teens to the other side to get charges filed. [More]

And why weren’t they going to be prosecuted there?

That’s a rhetorical question.

Welcome to the Party, Pals

Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen and 23 other states filed a lawsuit against an egregious and overreaching Biden administration gun control regulation that will turn millions of gun owners into felons if they do not register certain devices they lawfully own with the federal government and pay a tax. [More]

They join FPC, SAF, GOA, NRA and… is anybody keeping track of all the lawsuits on this at one go-to link?

UPDATE

Ask and ye shall receive.

Desensitizing

The specific additional “sensitive places” designations that are challenged in the amended lawsuit include parks, beaches, recreational facilities or playgrounds or areas owned or controlled by a state, county or local government unit, plus youth sports events, an airport or public transportation hub, and various health care facilities. These areas were designated “sensitive” because the New Jersey Legislature was determined to “continue minimizing the carry of handguns as much as possible,” the lawsuit notes. [More]

Honestly, who ever heard of anyone being attacked in any of those places?

Justice Jill

…Justice Jill Copeland said she was required to consider the social context of anti-Black racism and as a result, gave the young Black first offender a conditional sentence of two years less a day rather than sending him to prison. [More]

The people who indignantly posture as “anti-racists” are laughed at as fools by those they virtue signal for.

The Devil in the Details

This technical change pushes “others” within the definition of “assault weapon” under Connecticut’s ban… While residents of other states are able to register these firearms with the ATF, or change the short barrels for longer ones to make them legal, the ATF has stated that it will not permit any such registrations from Connecticut residents due to Connecticut’s “assault weapon” ban. Nor will changing out the barrels avoid redesignation as banned “assault weapons” under Connecticut law. [More]

Damned if they did, damned if they didn’t.

The Missing Link

During a press conference, a team of Japanese researchers led by Professor Masanori Fukushima stated their intention to sue the Japanese government if the Health Ministry continues to refuse to acknowledge the causal link between the vaccine and deaths. [More]

That’s progress, but they’re still wearing their towels wrong…

There Goes the Boyfriend Loophole!

The question presented in this case is not whether prohibiting the
possession of firearms by someone subject to a domestic violence restraining order is a laudable policy goal. The question is whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(8), a specific statute that does so, is constitutional under the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. In the light of N.Y. State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n, Inc. v. Bruen, 142 S. Ct. 2111 (2022), it is not. [More]

If only there were a better way

A Noted ‘Commonsense Gun Safety Advocate

Photo and video evidence “clearly show Baldwin, multiple times, with his finger inside of the trigger guard and on the trigger,” according to the statement of probable cause submitted by prosecutors. [More]

But…but…but…

Besides, we know how important family phone calls are to him.

The Second Amendment Allows States To Implement Varied Firearm Regulations To Address Their Local Needs [More]

I kept reading through this trying in vain to find something, anything reflecting Founding intent to substantiate that claim.

Then again, I’ve been waiting for over 20 years for one of the lying grabbers to be able to do that.

Curses, Foiled Again!

A federal judge on Monday extended an order preventing New Jersey officials from enforcing the state’s sweeping new concealed carry restrictions, dealing another blow to a law championed by gun control advocates, Gov. Phil Murphy and his allies in the Legislature. [More]

And he’d have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn’t been for you darned activists!
