Tyrants Gonna Tyrannize

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is asking the Supreme Court to overturn an appeals court ruling that struck down a federal law preventing people under domestic violence-related restraining orders from having guns. [More]

Because how better “to secure the Blessings of Liberty” than to deny rights to people who haven’t even been charged with anything, let alone convicted?

We’re the Only Ones Conveying Enough

Col. James Cockrell, commissioner of the Alaska Department of Public Safety, said he has personally apologized to Colony High Principal Mary Fulp after troopers took her in for a mental health evaluation without her consent last Wednesday evening while the incident was livestreamed on her Facebook page. Cockrell said troopers believed there was a court order requiring them to do so, but the Alaska Court System has since confirmed that no such order was ever issued. [More]

Funny things can happen when “Only Ones” are acting on assumptions…

A Clear and Present Danger

Chris Cuomo Said, ‘I Was Going to Kill Everybody, Including Myself’ After Firing by CNN [More]

Says the guy who advocated invoking “red flag laws” on Marjorie Taylor Greene…

In the spirit of “If you see something, say something,” I’m thinking a call to Cherokee Indian Police SWAT might be in order…

NC Shooting Highlight Dangers of Swatting & ‘Red Flag’ Responses

What these actions don’t mitigate or excuse is the police opening fire on him immediately after he emerged unarmed from his trailer with his hands raised and his wife directly behind him. [More]

So will the State Bureau of Investigation and the DA aggressively pursue this, and if not, why not?

Worried Sickos

Latest Supreme Court-related ruling overturning gun regulations worries domestic violence survivor advocates [More]

Yeah, well their demands to throw due process out the window and eviscerate the rights of those inclined to obey disarmament edicts without due process is the more worrisome prospect.

A Red Flag

Jones also declined to reveal details of the shooting, or say how the boy got access to the gun or who owns the weapon. “This is a red flag for the country,” Jones said. [More]

A red flag for the country as in he wants to mass confiscate guns without due process, or a red flag for the country as in everybody better take that as a signal of tyrannical intent and prepare accordingly?

Convenient, isn’t it, how they can use the little aberration’s age to mask relevant details that will prove to all but the fanatical and the stupid that this is not a “gun problem” and hardly representative of the country outside of “progressive” enclaves?

UPDATE

Who let this idiot into the country?

Under Consideration

David M. Greco, Petitioner v. Matthew J. Platkin, Attorney General of New Jersey, et al… Dec 28 2022 DISTRIBUTED for Conference of 1/13/2023. [More]

The Girlfriend Loophole

The Petitioner who filed for the Extreme Risk Protection Order was the estranged boy friend of the Respondent who was a licensed gun owner in New York State … The Court also pointed out that there was a Family Court case also going on in which The Petitioner had an Order of Protection against him which among other things barred him from the home that they had shared. [More]

Sounds like it should have been called the Stalker Protection Act…

A Real Opportunity for Growth

Colorado lawmakers explore potential changes to state’s red flag law in wake of Club Q shooting – Options could include expanding who can petition court to have guns removed [More]

And when that won’t work, the quest to expand it to include everybody not in the service of protecting the rulers and their functionaries will continue.

Round ’em Up First, Due Process Later

Mayor Adams directs NYPD, first responders to involuntarily take mentally ill to hospitals [More]

Just think of the “progressive” possibilities… Hey, don’t overlook the “hater loophole”!

Funny thing about once you start turning a blind eye to due process

Speaking of Ostriches

We’re taking an ostrich approach to enforcing gun laws — with deadly results [More]

Not that these head-in-the-sand eggheads have any “answers” besides disarming you and me without due full process.

The reason I decided to give this one a link is not for the article itself, but for some of the comments, just to show the mentality this appeals to. The fanatic in point goes by “AE,” who at least put the lie to the “No one wants to take your guns” excuse:

If it weren’t for the legal gun owners in this country there wouldn’t be a gun violence problem…

Here’s what happens if you disagree:

I’ll go slow. If it weren’t for all the fearful and compensating man boys fighting for unrestricted purchase and use of firearms, there wouldn’t be any firearms in today’s society. Thus, no illegal gun problem…

There is absolutely no point in “debating” with such as these, or in establishing “common ground” dialog, as some ostensibly on “our side” are doing.
