So Much for Text, History, and Tradition
The Fourth Circuit found Wednesday that a federal regulation prohibiting the commercial sale of handguns to those under 21 is constitutionally valid, despite efforts by a group of 18 to 20-year-olds who say they should be able to buy handguns. [More]
“Federal”?

And I see the DSM is still putting “Reagan appointed” in front of that f_ing treasonous judicial dotard Harvie Wilkinson’s name, as if that somehow makes everything appear “bipartisan”…

It Ain’t Over ’til It’s Over
But we’re not across the finish line just yet. Parts of the bill still need to be cleaned up, and there’s still a chance we get stabbed in the back right before the goal. It’s time to mobilize—one final push. This is our chance, and we can’t afford to waste it. [More]
I need to hear the fat lady sing.

Gun Store Shutdown Moves Ahead
Republican Senator Fred Girod said he believed the point of the bill was to make guns more expensive. We disagree. The bill is clearly designed to make guns unavailable. [More]
Don’t look to the controlled opposition to deny a quorum.
UPDATE
I’m told the House decided a floor show was an appropriate people’s business concern:
A Flawed Premise from the Get-Go
In a major development for gun owners and constitutionalists, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit just withdrew a deeply flawed ruling that claimed suppressors aren’t “arms” protected by the Second Amendment. [More]
The bigger flaw is that government employees think that’s their call to make.

NYC councilmember urges residents to take up arms after robbers tied up Queens family in shocking home invasion: ‘Constitutional right’ [More]
Shows ya what I know. I didn’t think NYC had “Republican” council members.
Anyway, what are these “gun permits” she says she’s going to help her constituents obtain, and what do they have to do with the Second Amendment?
They all know there’s a difference between purchase and carry permits, don’t they?

As the Amendments Fall
“The right to counsel is not a luxury,” said MACDL President Shira Diner. “It is a bedrock principle of our justice system, guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment and by Article 12 of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights. When people are jailed without lawyers, the system ceases to be just—or constitutional.” [More]
Let’s try this again with a few word substitutions:
“The right to arms is not a luxury. It is a bedrock principle of our system, guaranteed by the Second Amendment and by Article 17 of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights. When people are disarmed without being adjudicated with full due process and incarcerated, the system ceases to be just—or constitutional.”

DIY?
If it’s legal to “homebrew” so to speak in the vernacular, a home-made 3D Printed or complete an 80% handgun and or rifle, WITHOUT DOTGOV PERMISSION OR PAPERWORK then, by extent, wouldn’t the same exact legality apply to “homebrewed” hushpuppies and all the rest of the happy-time fun toys??? [More]
And props for remembering R.A. Bear.

Friends of the Court
The Department of Justice has filed a brief with the Seventh Circuit in support of our win against the Illinois “assault weapon” and standard capacity magazine bans in our Harrel v. Raoul lawsuit. [More]
I got the brief over the weekend and am working a write-up.
Also on the same case, 35 AG’s have signed onto supporting the lawsuit.

New Jersey Governor’s Race Gives Gun Owners a Choice
Being one of the worst states in the union for eviscerating the Second Amendment, there’s much to be said on having the ear of a governor with veto power. [More]
True, hardly a perfect one. Still, the differences between the two are many, and this is New Jersey, after all.
I Got Them SAPA Blues?

So, did Hacchim, Yaakov, Michael, and Jeffrey not get the memo?
Or does acknowledgment that “the United States will not oppose when this case returns to district court” mean they don’t want to cede procedural precedent, but they’re going to stop fighting to force cooperation with infringements?
Who’s qualified to weigh in and explain?

Do those calling for them think they’re going to save anyone but themselves? Do they think they’ll have time to catch up to speed after the party starts?
Besides, publicized outliers notwithstanding, 67% of Koreans “identify as Democrats or lean Democratic,” meaning the majority have been incentivized to buy into the agenda.

We’re here because of illegitimate government, and because America no longer believes in the Posse and the Militia. [More]

A Right Delayed
