Notes from the Resistance
As one social-media wag responded, “The fact that we are having a hard time throwing America a 250th birthday party because leftists are threatening to kill everyone involved is the most zeitgeist s–t I’ve ever seen in my life.” [More]
And the “Team Freedom” response…?

[The] DC Court of Appeals in a 2 to1 decision said, indeed, that … President Trump’s policies of excluding transgenders from the military and not allowing them to serve, that this was unconstitutional and illegal. [Watch]
I’m wondering how soon someone’s gonna file a complaint about how getting rid of “non-binary” on the 4473 is an unconstitutional attack on freedom of expression requiring prospective buyers to choose between rights…
Hey, any chair in a bar fight…

Is that where they use those weapons of war only suitable for killing as many people as possible in as short a time or possible, or am I thinking “patrol rifles“…?
I can never keep that “standing army” vs. “Militia of the several States” clear as to who’s supposed to do what.

Virginia state Sen. Saddam Azlan Salim (D) is telling prosecutors who say they will not enforce his “assault weapons” ban to quit “tough guy posturing.” [More]
What was I just talking about…?
What idiots some of our “gun rights leaders” are.

Trump taps BFA-backed Ohio Judge Matthew Byrne for federal district court [More]
I don’t see much about 2A in the testimonial.
I wonder if anyone will ask him some questions.
This is citizen disarmament, just as certainly and just as seriously as if this were being imposed by extreme gun prohibitionist Democrats in New York City or Chicago. [More]
Musical B-listers shouldn’t be the only ones “getting the yips.”
Of course, our 2024 figures are not written in the stars. After all, immigrant voters could well reverse recent electoral trends and vote for more Republican candidates. However, this is unlikely without Republicans embracing more inclusive rhetoric and championing the kind of sensible immigration reforms that are supported by the majority of Americans. [More]
Any self-styled “gun rights leader” who is deliberately indifferent to the implications or overtly hostile to warnings is either a useful idiot or an embedded asset.

Translation: We’ll put on a show and throw you some short-lived scraps once in a while to make it look like we haven’t been completely lying to you about the right to keep and bear arms, but when it comes down to actually obeying the “shall not be infringed” mandate, well, f_ you.
Keep stokin’ that fire in our bellies, boys!

8th Circuit rejected Second Amendment challenge to Minnesota gun permit reciprocity law. Truck drivers argued Minnesota’s permit requirements burdened interstate travel and self-defense rights. Court ruled the reciprocity statute expands rather than restricts firearm carry rights. Panel found the Constitution does not require states to recognize all out-of-state gun permits. [More]
Hasn’t the Supreme Court weighed in on this already?
It would give to persons… the right to enter every other State whenever they pleased… and to keep and carry arms wherever they went.”
Aside from the “give” part, what’s the issue?

Just don’t forget that what government can do to the Black Lions it will do to whomever it can. [More]
I don’t much like ’em, either, but that’s not the point, is it?
TELL PRESIDENT TRUMP: PARDON TATE ADAMIAK! [More]
You can call or do what I do to ask others to join in.
And point of order, I think an acknowledgment link for the work most responsible for bringing this to our attention would have been appropriate.
Cekada promised neither he nor the ATF will be “offended by the outcome of the courts,” because he wants to make sure that Adamiak was “appropriately sentenced.” [More]
That’s mighty big of him. Told ya the guy was our BFF!

Seeing as how his stance on guns is marginally better than the ever-useless Susan Collins’, I hope he wins.

Any “Reform Candidates” care to speak up?
The Office of New Jersey Attorney General Davenport has sent subpoenas to New Jersey federally licensed firearms dealers (FFLs) demanding detailed records pertaining to sales of Glock firearms from January 2016 until June 15, 2026, News2A recently learned. The action, which is related to the December 2024 lawsuit brought against Glock called Davenport v. Glock (formerly Platkin v. Glock), could create a public record doxing New Jersey gun owners who have purchased Glock pistols, along with personally identifiable information… “This is a logistical nightmare. It could take some people years to comply with this,” one New Jersey FFL owner told News2A. [More]
So, have any prominent FFLs pledged to refuse to comply and not give up names?
Would you submit to this?

Today, Congressman Jimmy Patronis (R-FL) introduced the Firearm Freedom Act, legislation to eliminate the 1986 Hughes Amendment, which banned the purchase, ownership, and transfer of machine guns and limited Americans’ Second Amendment rights. This is the first time legislation has been introduced to fully repeal the provision. [More]
1% chance of being enacted
Jimmy knows that.
At least it’s more hopeful than the Freedom from Taxes Act.

Marine vet prosecutor refuses to cross constitutional line on Spanberger ‘assault weapon’ ban – Commonwealth Attorney Ryan Mehaffey said the new Virginia gun ban ‘is striking at the core of the militia system’ [More]
What’s a Law repugnant to the Constitution, again…?
No Ted Olson, he…
This is a major beef I have with apologists for the administration making excuses that they have to defend the law. No, they don’t.
Now all we need is an actual militia system with a core. Anybody see any bills proposing that?
If more took this stand it would galvanize and spread.
