ATF Director Robert Cekada Gets Softball Treatment on Pistol Braces from Colion Noir

Many “conservatives” revere any Trump administration policy as if Moses himself had carried it down from Mount Sinai. [More]

If I go by my own experience, Darwin can expect angry missives from MAGA über alles types demanding to know if he would rather have Kamala and canceling subscriptions in 3…2..1…

Can It Get More Inspirational?

Just out of curiosity, how do you square “The idea of a heritage American is about as loony as anything the woke left has actually put up,” with text, history, tradition and Founding intent recognized in Bruen as being the critical benchmark?

Getting Warmer…

The US Supreme Court decision in Hemani offers great support to the 2A challenges to Virginia gun ban laws. [Watch]

He’s right when he observes “shall not be infringed” must be viewed and argued in the context of what The Framers would have considered to be infringements when it comes to “dangerous and unusual.”

I’d like to see him acknowledge that “in common use at the time” needs to include arms that standing army soldiers deploy with, not just what’s commercially popular, because otherwise, the machinegun ban will continue and any new developments in arms technology will be withheld from We the People.

And the bottom line is, prohibition does not work in a society that has rights, and you need to amp up the totalitarianism to where it does. If someone can’t be trusted with a gun…

Nothing Exceeds Like Excess

ATF Director: Adamiak’s sentence “excessive” [More]

As previously noted, he’s missing the point.

But what I want to focus on is this business of ATF Firearm Enforcement Officer Jeffrey Bodell spreading falsehoods under oath to affect trial outcomes, and how is that anything but prejudicial perjury? Everybody realizes ATF has been getting away with that for years right?

But don’t take my word for it:

Gold Hat Gun Grab

Goldhatpolis

An alliance of firearms dealers and Second Amendment advocates sued Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis over a law authorizing warrantless searches of gun sales records. [More]

And if a Republican tried to do this with abortion or minor gender reassignment records…?

It really does give an insight into the totalitarian mind of Democrats in power.

Note to militia: It doesn’t look like semi-autos will do the trick.

We’re the Only Ones Prohibitive Enough

Safnew

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has filed a federal lawsuit in California challenging Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office policies that prohibit permit holders from carrying handguns equipped with red dot sights or flashlights, as well as their outright ban on the carry of single action only (SAO) 1911- and 2011-style pistols. [More]

“Enforced by Sheriff David Livingston,” eh?

It’s not like he’s got better things to focus on, like his longtime deputy “arrested … on charges of burglary, receiving stolen property, embezzlement, and possession of an assault weapon.”

Killer Instinct

“Sometimes people will give him a pass because he will say the right thing and he is a Second Amendment advocate, but then, when you understand this is only because he believes the Second Amendment needs to be used for Black people to protect against White people, you realize he cannot read crime statistics,” Crowder said. “The more you listen to him, you realize he is intensely racist and effectively wrong about everything.” [More]

I have to confess being out of touch with some of the new 2A influencers, because I’ve never even heard of the guy.

Things Sure are Different Now

Southern Illinois man convicted in 3D-printing ‘ghost gun’ case: REPORTS [More]

Anybody else see founding intent problems?

Is “controlled delivery” anything like walking guns, and how does one ship silencers from China without Chi-com complicity?

We’re the Only Ones Unreasonable Enough

Ccrkba

“The police must have reasonable suspicion that the person is possessing the gun illegally or otherwise engaged in criminal activity,” wrote Judge Kathryn Grill Graeff. “Because the officers here stopped appellant based solely on his possession of a gun, without reasonable suspicion that he was possessing the gun illegally or otherwise involved in criminal activity, they did not have reasonable suspicion to stop him. The stop, therefore, violated appellant’s Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable seizures.” [More]

Baltimore police are d_s when it comes to guns? Who knew?
