Oh, It’s the Safety Dance

In particular, the court explained, “the text of the Second Amendment is limited to only certain arms, and history and tradition demonstrate that particularly ‘dangerous’ weapons are unprotected.” Id. at 18. “Because assault weapons are particularly dangerous weapons and high-capacity magazines are particularly dangerous weapon accessories, their regulation accords with history and tradition.” [More]

So it was the Founders’ contention that only “safe” arms were “necessary to the security of a free State”?

A Matter of Trust

Bexar County court records show Diaz has four other gun-related charges stemming from different incidents dating back to 2015. [More]

So, if he’s proven he can’t be trusted with a gun, what can’t he be trusted without?

No social order that denies basic truths can endure, and that seems to be the age we find ourselves in.

‘Progressive’ Privilege

Nonbinary Child of Massachusetts Rep. Katherine Clark Gets Probation for Assaulting a Cop – “allegedly struck a police officer in the face, leading to an assault and battery on a police officer charge, on top of charges of vandalizing property, tagging property, vandalizing a historic marker/monument, and resisting arrest” [More]

I wonder what would happen to a young, politically unconnected black man who punched a Boston cop…?

After all, “racial justice” is what Katherine says she’s all about.

Making Noise

SEN. MENENDEZ, REP. WATSON COLEMAN RENEW BICAMERAL EFFORT TO OUTLAW GUN SILENCERS … “Silencers are not tools of self-defense, they are tools of murder. [More]

That must be why it’s got a law enforcement exception.

The subversive wretch has been trying for years.

It will never get past the Republican House, but it’s useful to once more prove what these totalitarians are about is total control.

UPDATE

Carl Bussjaeger has some thoughts over at Zelman Partisans.

With ‘Progressives,’ Every Day is Opposite Day

“The death of Banko Brown … was nothing short of a lynching,” one speaker said. “And anyone that stands beside that is standing beside lynching. [More]

The lynch mob, which did not review the evidence the prosecutor did, equates self-defense with lynching. Who thinks they’d be this ginned up if the victim were a straight white Republican instead of a black trans?

Made to be Broken

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is expected to publish regulations that would limit the equipment allowed on public refuge properties and expand the area where cost-effective lead ammo and fishing tackle is banned. [More]

Yo, Fudds: You starting to see why the fight against the bump stock ban is more than just about a stupid piece of plastic?

OK, but what’s that got to do with fish?

Or Philip Dru…?

‘Leftist,’ Huh?

Leftist arrested and charged after assaulting Rep. Gaetz [More]

And it’s a felony charge?

I’ve been so busy today trying to catch up as best I can on email tips that I don’t have time to pursue this one further– I spent a couple minutes looking to find any social media posts indicating she’s anti-gun because I always find it amusing when such become “prohibited persons,” and came up empty.

Feel free to succeed where I failed.
