Hoist with His Own Petard

Durrer was released on $10,000 bond after his arrest, and the court ordered him to surrender firearms and vacate his home. [More]

Gee, I feel real bad for him losing his guns like that…

There’s a Lesson in Here Somewhere

If the firefighter been armed things could have turned out much differently, especially if the deterrent effect resolved things without a shot being fired.

Alternatively, if he’d emerged victorious, who thinks he’d just be allowed to walk?

My natural sympathy has gone right out the window. Whether they’re launching this obscene attack on freedom out of greed or out of grief ceases to matter at this point, because this group of blinded tools is allowing itself to be used to undermine both speech and RKBA. Either way, they deserve to be repelled.

You’re in Good Iron Fists

Gun owners in the nation’s 10th largest city who disobey a requirement to carry liability insurance and pay a yearly fee will have to fork over up to $1,000 in fines as part of San Jose’s unique and controversial push to combat gun violence — a novel legislative approach that has triggered a challenge in federal court and has 2nd Amendment supporters up in arms. [More]

It’s not so novel– as with all “progressive” ideas, we’ve seen comparable tyrannical outrages like poll taxes and gun registration abuses before.

Licky Licardo & Co. just put a new mask on it.

Do they even have who the lucre goes to worked out yet? I want to start a pool on how many years it will take for whoever runs it to be exposed for embezzlement.

Actually, it will probably never get that far because it is so clearly unconstitutional and in violation of Bruen’s “historical understanding.” This is just protracted harassment and delaying tactics by official subversives who can spend all the plunder they want on drawn-out legal challenges and appeals, knowing that to fight it, their opponents will need to dig into limited and stretched-out financial resources.

For all the outraged noise they make about LGBTQ “pride” in order to advance their political agenda, “progressives” actually think they’re objects of disgusted derision, don’t they?

A Right Deliberately Delayed

Grass Roots North Carolina, the state’s primary gun rights group, announced this morning that it is preparing a second lawsuit against Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden over continued delays in concealed handgun permits. [More]

In-your-face defiance merits an in-your-face response.

Garry’s too busy trying to make like a TV star. You gotta wonder if any homicides could have been deterred.

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Qualified Enough

Do you think anyone who works for the government—not just the police—should be able to pull you over and detain you? And if a government employee who was never granted police powers assumes these powers unilaterally and clearly violates your constitutional rights, should you be able to hold them to account? Or should they be allowed to get off scot-free through “qualified immunity” merely because they work for the government? [More]
