DOJ Withholds Rights Restoration Records Citing Privacy Concerns

FOIA Gibson Gun Rights Restoration

The need to apply consistent criteria is not only a matter of basic fairness, but of law. [More]

The very first comment needs to be addressed. With an initial estimate of 50 FTEs processing applications, the need to minimize subjectivity and establish consistency should be self-evident, especially noting how DOJ has shown it can still be all over the board on 2A, even under a “pro-gun administration.”

Further noting this is a rule and not a law, it’s not hard to see how lack of clear criteria could allow all kinds of negative dispositions under a new administration for those applicatons already in the pipeline before it terminates the program altogether.

Stake Driven Through Vampire Laws’ Hearts

The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a Hawaii law that makes it a crime for gun owners to bring their guns onto private property that is open to the public unless they have the property owner’s specific consent. In Wolford v. Lopez, by a vote of 6-3, the justices agreed with a group of Maui residents with concealed-carry permits that the law violates the Second Amendment’s guarantee of the right to bear arms. Thursday’s decision will have an impact not only in Hawaii, but also in four other states – California, Maryland, New York, and New Jersey – with similar laws. [More]

They got another one right!

Maybe I should ease up on John Roberts…? Until next time…?

On Again/Off Again

“The Trump Administration is fighting as hard as it can to continue violating the Second Amendment rights of millions of Americans. Even though the Fifth Circuit already held that these bans are unconstitutional, the government is trying to limit the decision’s reach so it can keep disarming peaceable adults across the country. This is how the United States government celebrates 250 years of American independence—by acting like the tyrants we defeated. [More]

Just after getting an “attagirl.”

I’m telling ya: Bipolar.

A Lawler Unto Herself

Caitconley

Cait Conley Cruises to Victory in Suburbs as Socialism Sweeps the City [More]

And as a veteran, we should believe in the rightness of her citizen disarmament agenda, that is if we want to ignore the false authority logical fallacy and forget that one of our greatest “war heroes” was also the man who’s name became synonymous with being a traitor…

So we need to get behind Mike Lawler, right, the guy “the gun lobby thanks with campaign cash“?

You know, the guy who wants to ban “undetectable firearms,” joined other Vichycons in funding Biden’s Office of Anti-Gun Strategy who went on national TV and bragged about expanding “red flag laws”, and has proven himself to be an embedded enemy on numerous occasions…?

But…but…but politics is the art of the possible and the perfect is the enemy of the good, those who have been leading us down the path of “compromise” (aka preemptive surrender) will object. If he doesn’t win, a really, really anti-gun Democratic Socialist will!

So what’s she going to do? Ban your guns? And you’d obey?

See? The Second Amendment is still working.

How pathetic of a guncuck would you have to be to vote for this serial political adulterer?

The Glock is Ticking

DOJ enforcing the Second Amendment…

Imagine that. Now imagine NRA “loyalists” — in California of all places — being so against it they resort to spreading insults and lies and blocking the truth.

You Don’t Say!

Poll: Most Democrats Say Illegal Aliens Should Remain in U.S. and Eventually Apply for Citizenship [More]

We know why.

What we don’t know is why the gun groups are deliberately ignoring the threat, and why prominent gun influencers are equating concern over that with white supremacy and/or minimizing it all by saying just wait a generation or two, as if the culture those generations will grow up in won’t have changed, and as if we have a generation or two for them to come around once a prohibitionist supermajority controls things.

Why I’m the only 0ne taking them on is also, frankly, a disappointment.

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.
