And Thank You for Your Service

Attorney R. Davis Younts told Just the News the new CDC guidance won’t change military mandates “but absolutely should. [More]

Especially considering what could happen:

“If they are tried and convicted in the appeals court, the case reaches the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces. If a service member is convicted in this court, they would likely receive a dishonorable discharge, a bad-conduct discharge, or, in the case of an officer, a dismissal.”

And you know what that would mean.

‘Shall Not be Infringed’ Except…

FPC Files New Lawsuit Challenging ATF “Frame or Receiver” Rule [More]

ATF knows they’re in the wrong. But what do they care? They’ve got unlimited plunder to tap into and none of them will face any personal repercussions.

And some of us don’t think Congress has legitimate authority to do this, either.

Some general rules of thumb that work most of the time and have kept me from being assaulted and kidnapped on more than one occasion: Be the adult on the scene. Don’t argue and resist. By the same token, don’t consent and/or volunteer information. File any resulting complaints when you’re safe.

A Tempered Victory

…Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) announced a victory in its Campos v. Bonta lawsuit, which challenged policies and practices of California Attorney General Rob Bonta and his Department of Justice (DOJ) Bureau of Firearms that delayed firearm transactions beyond the statutory 10-day waiting period absent a legal basis. [More]

Who thinks these guys wait 10 days?

What about crack smokers?

So when will Nikki Fried be prosecuted?

And, since they cite the historical precedents, when will the confiscation raids to disarm Indians and Catholics begin? They do realize both groups mostly vote Democrat?

A Historical Understanding

The State of Minnesota also filed its own motion for summary judgment, which …  went on to say … that “18-20 year old women are also not covered by the plain text of the Second Amendment.” [More]

I once wrote a speculative article (way pre-Heller) I can’t find now that basically made the case that the only women mentioned in U.S. Code are “female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.” My intent was to set up a staged lawsuit with a (friendly) FFL refusing to sell a gun to a (friendly) woman and having it overturned on equal protection grounds.

I wonder if the statute now needs to be amended to add the words “self-identified”…

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Politically Embarrassing Enough

Last week, U.S. District Judge Carl J. Nichols sentenced Carter to nine months in federal prison for the theft of public funds. [More]

So … “illegal” gun … impersonating being a fed … but he’s not a “prohibited person” after all the other charges were dropped?

Guess that wouldn’t look good on Schneider’s guncreds.

I wish I thought a FOIA would do any good here…

As Long as We’re Talking AstroTurf…

The most high-profile effort has come from Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, who has emerged as one of the most prominent critics of what he describes as the corrupting influence of dark money on the court. He has proposed a bill that would treat amicus filers more like lobbyists, subjecting them to registration and financial reporting. [More]

While Sheldon gets to influence as a perk.

That’s pretty rich, considering the indignation is being stirred up by a Bloomberg Machine beneficiary. You know, the same machine that has for years been quietly setting up infrastructure in the states (that means with the media keeping mum) to make legal challenges to infringements necessary…

Oh, Well This Proves EVERYTHING

Well, it turns out there are photos. And here they are, published for the first time. [More]

And this made the ever-sold-out Drudge.

Sr. Bedoya, the floor is yours:

Admissible evidence? We ain’t got no admissible evidence. We don’t need no admissible evidence. I don’t have to show you any stinking admissible evidence!

Is this really all they want us to need? What honest man wouldn’t rebel against that?

Funny. They don’t invite comments.

Open Season

“The gun rights movement has been given a weapon of mass destruction, and it will annihilate approximately 75% of the gun laws eventually,” said Evan Nappen, a New Jersey gun rights attorney. [More]

What do the antis call that? Oh, yeah, a good first step.

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

So here we have it. The village knows the proposed ban is BS, but they have nothing to fear because it will be defended pro-bono by Everytown allied lawyers. Dirty dirty dirty, especially because they were keeping this from the public as admitted in the email [More]

‘Ready Succeptibility’

“Whether or not the Rifle used in the Attack was, in fact, modified to fire in a fully automatic fashion, its ready susceptibility to such modification rendered it a ‘machinegun’ as sold, prohibiting its sale to the general public,” the complaint alleges. [More]

That’s why some of us were so adamant against the doors the Trump “bump stock” ban would open. And why I have no patience with point-missing bloviators and their “stupid piece of plastic isn’t a hill worth dying on” ignorance…

Settled Law

The Supreme Court ruled in March that Americans have no right to learn the grisly details of CIA torture because the CIA has never formally confessed its crimes. The case symbolizes how the rule of law has become little more than legal mumbo-jumbo to shroud official crimes. And it is another grim reminder that Americans cannot rely on politically approved lawyers wearing bat suits to save their freedoms. [More]

Using that standard, the government could get away with just about anything.

And generally does.

“Commonsense gun safety laws,” anyone?
