Notes from the Resistance
Snelling referred to bombshell reporting by the Chicago Sun-Times and others that found 27 current and former Chicago police officers appeared in a leaked roster for the Oath Keepers, an anti-government extremist group. According to the report, at least nine officers are still on the force. [More]
I set that report aside to write an article to refute the many damnable lies.

An NYPD cop and her boyfriend were arrested Thursday on federal narcotics distribution charges and related conspiracy counts for selling more than a kilo of heroin and nearly a pound of fentanyl to a confidential source working for the FBI. [More]
And up until the time she was arrested, she was legally empowered to arrest you for being armed where the city dictated you could not be.

And in this case, Nebraska’s “Turn Yourself In” diktat further endangers citizens’ rights. [More]
Self-report to the “authorities” or else– just like the Founders intended!
“I am shocked and deeply saddened to learn that my estranged son, with whom I have had very minimal contact over many years, is the suspect in this afternoon’s shooting of the two La Vergne police officers… Despite my efforts and guidance in the early and teenage years, my son, John Drake Jr., now 38-years-old, resorted to years of criminal activity and is a convicted felon. He has not been a part of my life for quite some time.” [More]
He sure made a point of distancing himself.

The 11th Circuit Court of appeals has ruled that it is clearly established law that even in a state with a “stop-and-identify” law, and even if police reasonably suspect you of a crime, police may not require you to show ID or arrest you if you refuse to do so. [More]
Which won’t stop many of them from doing that or worse if you don’t instantly obey like a terrified slave, while the rest hold back from intervening and keep their mouths shut later…
Remember the first rule of Citizen Club.
“Only Ones” Perilolate and McCabe sound like real badge-heavy acorn-finders, don’t they?
A former investigator with the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) is accused of trafficking weapons to Mexico while he was an employee of the bureau in 2017, according to a letter sent to the ATF Director this week by US Senator Charles Grassley. [More]
Jeez, another letter…?
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.
I went to Grassley’s “News Releases” page and didn’t see the letter. I asked him for a copy:
Anybody have a link?
I started an AmmoLand article on this but then found another writer was working on it. I’ll wait for that one to see if there’s anything substantive I can add.

North Carolina and North Dakota Police Chiefs and Federal Firearms Licensees Indicted for Conspiracy to Illegally Acquire Machineguns and Other Firearms. [More]
Amidst all the outrage over Larry Vickers, let’s not forget we all have the right to such firearms the chiefs claimed for themselves but would arrest us for. I also find it difficult to comprehend how an FFL and recognized expert, versed in all the traps and pitfalls, could stumble into such a huge one himself.

Like geofence warrants, keyword warrants cast a dragnet that require a provider to search its entire reserve of user data—in this case, queries by one billion Google users. Police generally have no identified suspects; instead, the sole basis for the warrant is the officer’s hunch that the suspect might have searched for something in some way related to the crime. [More]
Ah, the old Inspector Clouseau theory of policing…
So what happens if you use Duck Duck Go?

Leonard Allan Cure, freed after a wrongful conviction, is shot dead in a traffic stop [More]
Based on the degree of justification, there’s a time and a place to resist and different odds of prevailing depending on how we choose.

“The officers hid while Johnny did what they were trained to do, that the officers refused to go outside. These are three officers with bulletproof vests on, and they refused to open the door and go and engage the shooter.” For 11 seconds, the officers watched Hurley from behind as he was trying to remove ammunition from the automatic rifle, according to court filings. Without announcing “police” or asking him to drop the weapon, Arvada Officer Kraig Brownlow opened the substation door and took aim at Hurley from behind, hitting him in his back pelvis and killing him.
