Notes from the Resistance
Attorneys representing the Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in a federal court challenge of Maryland’s restrictive “sensitive places” gun control law have filed an appellants’ brief with the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. [More]
So the Founders intended “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed unless we tell them ‘Except here, here, and here…’?”
A judge rejected Tesla founder, X owner and billionaire Elon Musk’s request to move the civil lawsuit against his $1 million giveaway filed by the Philadelphia district attorney to federal court. The lawsuit was remanded back to Pennsylvania state court Friday by U.S. District Judge Gerald J. Pappert, a former Republican Pennsylvania attorney general appointed to federal court in 2014 by President Barack Obama. [More]
Do Vichycons really believe Republicans will ever be serious power players again after they sabotage MAGA?
As Mike reminded us, we’ll still get to vote— just not for them.

The appeal challenging the district court’s order denying Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DISMISSED. [More]
There was a mootness factor because of a state court injunction. Mark W. Smith explains what it all means.

GOA, GOF Coalition Urge Judge to Make Final Ruling on Universal Registration Check Rule [More]
Here’s how you can prove it’s not just about “background checks.”
A federal judge in New York has issued a permanent injunction against the Cortland Housing Authority prohibiting any sort of firearms ban against CHA tenants… [More]
Yet I’ll bet they overwhelmingly vote Democrat.
…we’re likely going to lose it because we’re in the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit but a strong showing for the Second Amendment in this case and I think it’s going to give rise to good stuff… before the United States Supreme Court in the Snope-Bianchi case hopefully coming out this spring… [Watch]
So, in order to get over the wall we need to climb over the bodies of our fallen…

Lawyers, Guns, and…Money [More]
Oregon Firearms Federation asks gun owners to help it help them.
I wonder how many just want to eat the bread…
A federal district court judge in New York has ruled that the state’s restriction against concealed carry on private property open to the public is unconstitutional, handing a victory to the Second Amendment Foundation in a case known as Christian v. James. [More]
Now what will the appeals court say?
Okeechobee officials who banned guns prior to hurricane may soon pay for their ‘error’ [More]
“Too bad it won’t be out of their own pockets.”Personally”?
Sweet!
The Colorado Supreme Court ruled Tuesday to dismiss a lawsuit brought by an attorney who’s been harassing cake artist Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, for more than 12 years. [More]
So it’s not “My life’s work my choice”?
You’ll notice who the cowards haven’t tried to sue.
What are the chances Phillips will be able to recover costs and damages?
What are the chances he won’t be targeted for more harassment?

Based on results, ATF can’t, either.
She’s just wondering if “ghost guns” can also fire 800 rounds a second.
It’s OK to say “she,” isn’t it?
Justice Alito Wrecks ATF’s ‘Ghost Gun’ Argument: Are Eggs and Peppers an Omelet?[More]
So are John Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett bent on scrambling things?
Mark W. Smith has some interesting thoughts, including “if the ATF theory is allowed here, then drilling a single hole in AR-15s to convert it into a machine gun means that an AR-15 is “readily convertable” into a machine gun and thus a machine gun. SCOTUS will need to issue a ruling to avoid this result.”
Supreme Court Will Hear Gun Industry Challenge to Mexico’s Lawsuit – “Simply put, Mexico’s suit threatens to undermine American sovereignty and constitutional liberty, and it has no business in this country’s courts.” [More]
I expect our side to win. What I’m most curious of is what the Democrat judges will do, and how they will rationalize their arguments if they side with Mexico.
Between SCOTUS now taking on both this and frames/receivers, how any gun owner can justify not voting and letting Kamala Harris reshape the Court is beyond me.

Justices to hear challenge to regulation of unserialized ‘ghost guns’ [More]
The Founders couldn’t have imagined unserialized guns, right…?
The Illinois Attorney General’s office has apologized to a federal judge demanding answers after implying his ruling against the state’s mass transit concealed carry ban has “safety implications.” [More]
And that is the difference between a Trump-appointed judge and what Kamala will put on the bench.
True, his won’t all be perfectly consistent. But you can bet hers will be.
