Thank an A-Rated Republican ‘Compromiser’

Several of you have sent in various tips on this.

I’ll be doing something on it soon.

We’re the Only Ones Diagnosing Enough

A police officer who visited Russo’s home to investigate allegedly reported that the dog was stiff, barely breathing, and appeared to be uncomfortable. The officer obtained a warrant and had Tipper euthanized. [More]

In Massachussetts, “Only Ones” are also “qualified” to file an ERPO petition.

Hey, take the dogs first, due process later, right?

It’s for the greater good…

If You See Something Say Something

NBA Legend Charles Barkley Threatens to ‘Punch’ Black Donald Trump Supporters ‘In The Face’ [More]

Y’know, more people die from that than from being shot with “assault weapons”…

And he complains about Trump being rich?

Does somebody want to “red flag” this loud-mouthed, gun-grabbing racist @$$hole?

Granite Staters: Today’s Five-Minute Activism

HB1050 is a restriction on Second Amendment rights, creates precedents for further restrictive measures, and impacts individuals’ rights to self-defense without adequately addressing the underlying issues related to firearm misuse. It creates an sneaky avenue for so-called ‘red flag’ attempts and is a backdoor gun registry attempt. [More]

Show me a “commonsense gun safety law” that isn’t a fraudulent power grab proposed by self-serving traitors and backed by useful idiots.

Ask Republicans if they’re interested in keeping their majority. And I wouldn’t waste my time on these traitors.

Six Degrees of Kevin Bellyachin’

Ohio needs a red flag law to prevent needless deaths [More]

In other words, grinning useful idiot Kevin interacted with the nut job, noticed and/or said nothing, and is now trying to alleviate his guilt by denying due process to everyone.

He’s one of these and one of these. Surprise, surprise, he’s one of these:

I am a progressive Democrat…

Read down further and you’ll also see him parroting the “assault-style rifle” narrative, meaning if you give him red flags he’ll be on to the next objective, and then the next…

Reframing Bruen

As described above, the Petitioner has demonstrated and the Court finds that New York’s Red Flag Law is not beyond the “outer limits” the framers and ratifiers of the Second and Fourteenth amendment understood them, based on the nation’s historical traditions. [More]

It’s no surprise support for Red Queen laws comes from judges still inserting an affinity for the “collective right” interpretation into their arguments…

Washington Gun Law gives analysis commentary.

Son of Low-Hanging Fruit

A detailed search of the Anders’ residence unearthed an alarming array of weapons and materials, including ghost guns, bomb-making components, “emergency food supplies,” and “multiple computers.” San Diego Fire’s Bomb Squad also removed an RPG rocket launcher from the house. [More]

With all the hysteria over specialty rounds and cartridges legal in most states, and a demilled dummy RPG launcher, it’s fair to wonder how much of the rest of the article is hyperbolic DSM fear porn.

Thing is, this guy and Junior made it easy.

Utah Alert

URGENT ACTION ITEM- SB 83 is a BAD BILL- Urge the Senate Committee to Vote NO on Gun Control- SB 83 by Senator Todd Weiler is another seriously flawed “Safe Storage” scheme. [More]

I don’t know Utah politics or if calling the Democrat on the list or Republican supportsrs of Mitt Romney is a waste of time, but if you’re from there and know the lay of the land, do what you think is best.

I see this Weiler putz is a Vichycon who also supports red flag due process violations.

How is it Utahns keep supporting such frauds?

We’re the Only Ones Careless Enough

They have no intention of giving it back to you unless forced to anyway…

If they can deny your fundamental rights and take your guns from you without due process, what do they care? It’s just been established they can practically get away with anything.

With Republicans Like These

Rep. John Andrews, R-Paris, said his party’s first priority with regard to firearms would be protecting the state and federal rights of gun owners. But he planned to introduce a bill in the coming session he believed would save lives and protect licensed gun sellers at the same time—through a so-called “yellow alert system.” “If someone does something to trigger a statewide alert, FFLs (Federal Firearms Licenses)—or gun dealers—would get a text and a photo—kind of like an Amber Alert,” Andrews explained. “We would call it a yellow alert system—basically telling them, ‘Do not sell to this person. They are either wanted by the police or are in crisis.'” [More]

Do us a favor and stop “protecting” us.

And Thank You for Your Service

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) is putting together legislation to require the U.S. military to adhere to state-level red and yellow flag laws for troops. [More]

Denying them due process and stripping them of a fundamental right is one hell of a way to show appreciation.

Failure All Around

“We are sorry the system failed you.” [More]

If I smother someone to death can I blame “the system”?

And does Youngkin really think that sucking up will earn him appreciative kudos?

Yes, of course, if someone can’t be trusted without a custodian that should mean the custodians assume a legal duty for his care and his welfare. But guess who doesn’t want that.

Funny, what Youngkin won’t take a stand on, like “red flags.”

But hardly surprising.

Boy Friend Loophole or Hamas?

Domestic violence exacerbated by wartime, raising concerns over looser gun policies [More]

“Real reporter” Carrie Keller-Lynn asks us to agonize over speculative conflating that doesn’t qualify “violence,” doesn’t offer evidence of armed escalation, doesn’t factor in women taking advantage of the “looser policies,” and does not account for the effects of defenselessness, all the while exploiting the depradations of a known aberrant subpopulation to impose restrictions on Everykibbutz.

A Presumption of Innocence

A FACTUAL FINDING OF “VIOLENT DANGEROUSNESS” is the Key to disarming a particular person due to mental illness or otherwise. This finding of “violent dangerousness” may only arise after a full blown trial, which is analogous to hearings/ trials associated with placing a person in a mental health institution via an involuntary civil commitment process. [More]

That’s what “full due process” means, something the Sentence Firsters can’t tolerate.

And, of course, disarming only has a chance in custodial environments.

The Stuff Red Flags are Made Of

Mayor Eric Adams has been accused of sexual assault in a legal action filed Wednesday night in a New York court, The Messenger has learned. The plaintiff in the case, a woman whose name is being withheld by The Messenger due to the nature of the allegation, filed a summons Wednesday night in state Supreme Court in Manhattan under the Adult Survivors Act that names the Big Apple Democrat as a defendant. [More]

As much contempt as I have for the guy’s wannabe tyranny, this is bull$h!+ that some unknown person with who-knows-what axe to grind can mess with a man’s reputation this way. Unless we’re talking about a court order due to credible threats necessitating witness protection, The Messenger’s motives and credibility should be suspect.

The question now is if he will be hoisted with his own petard and disarmed — and if not, why not?

The Sentence First, Verdict Afterwards Act

Durbin, Duckworth Join Colleagues To Introduce Legislation To Protect Domestic Abuse Survivors From Gun Violence [More]

Durbin, Duckworth Join Colleagues To Introduce Legislation To Deny Constitutional Rights to the Accused — there, I fixed it for them.

No prognosis yet on GovTrack, but with a Republican House consider this political posturing by the usual gang of rights prohibitionists in anticipation of SCOTUS enraging them in Rahimi.

Assuming the GOP doesn’t blow ’24.

Jam Session

How a Second Amendment case at the Supreme Court is putting gun rights groups in a jam [More]

That’s one way to spin getting your usurping @$$ handed to you…

“If someone is dangerous enough that society can’t trust them with a gun, they should be behind bars − it’s that simple,” Pratt said.

Bingo.

Unauthorized Means Unlawful

The US Department of Justice made a major concession involving whether licensing officials working for executive agencies may exercise “discretion” over CCW permits. [Watch]

That is big.

And using that rationale, I’d argue they can’t exercise executive “discretion” in “rulemaking” not backed by legislation, either.

Or in creating new classifications of “prohibited persons.”

Or don’t. Noting who is featured and by whom, starting out with a bald-faced lie makes me not want to waste my time being lied to.

Here’s some truth. [Watch]

But we still don’t have a decision.

Let’s hope the storm crows are wrong.

Why We Must Punish Everyone

“He would not have been able to access that gun if we had these current laws in place,” Glenn said in an interview with The Associated Press that took place outside the Supreme Court. [More]

Why aren’t they telling us his Colorado TRO said he couldn’t get a gun?

And if “prohibited persons” can’t get guns, what’s all this about?

Not that reality and logic could ever compete with heartstring-tugging anecdotes…
