Here Comes the Judge

Safnew

JUDGE ROGER BENITEZ ANNOUNCED AS GRPC 2026 KEYNOTE SPEAKER [More]

But…but…but doesn’t the fact that he’s “a Cuban-born immigrant” refute my “greatest threat” contention?

Not at all. One of our wisest champions, who I consider a mentor, is also a Cuban immigrant. My criteria have always specifically recognized and exempted individuals who stand apart from otherwise overwhelmingly hostile group majorities.

We’re the Only Ones Tyrannical Enough

SPECIAL REPORT: When Florida police act like they’re working in California – Travis E. Smith faces 15 years in a state prison and a $10,000 fine. [More]

Hey, don’t judge until you’ve goose-stepped a mile in “the officer’s” jackboots.

Besides, they think armed coercion is hilarious!

Lie of Omission

JONATHAN TURLEY: James Talarico’s defense of gun control leaves out a key word… The reason, he declared, is that the Second Amendment expressly embraces gun control by referring to the right to bear arms as “well regulated.” [More]

But, of course, that’s simply not true.

So why is it so many Texans are willing to vote in a demonstrable liar?

Carry On

Ammo

In 2026, 29 states have permitless concealed carry freedoms. Concealed carry legislation has no consistent impact on crime in the U.S…. Of the 12 states that passed permitless carry laws between 2019 and 2022, 11 had lower crime rates in 2024 than they did in 2019. [More]

In terms of prevention, we don’t know what wasn’t reported. In terms of no increase in violent crime, so much for “DODGE CITY! BLOOD IN THE STREETS OVER FENDER BENDERS!!!” hysteria.

Rule of Lie

The 2-1 appellate decision found that the Illinois law does not violate the Second Amendment, and its restrictions are “consistent with the principles that underpin our Nation’s tradition of firearm regulation.” [More]

Who were the two baldfaced liars? Constitutional dotard and embedded enemy Reagan-appointee Frank Easterbrook again, joined by Trump appointee Amy St. Eve…

They can get away with flat-out making $#!+ up like that because they know there will be no personal repercussions.

Keep cutting down the Supreme Law and reap the whirlwind, fools.

Soros Money Shows Gun Owners Must Not Dismiss Blue Threat to Texas

Gun Vote IWI Jim Grant

The bottom line is just because it’s Texas hardly means that “gun rights” can be taken for granted. [More]

The enemy is mobilized, equipped and organized, with no shortage of ground troops. Committed defenders, willing to give it their all, are few.

Remind you of anything?

The Devil in the Details

ATF Director Says Violent Criminals Are Agency’s Priority, Not Lawful Gun Owners [Watch]

Yeah, about that:

We condemn any program that involves enforcing unconstitutional “laws”, even if such “laws” are enforced only against violent criminals. Unconstitutional “laws” are illegal, harmful to public safety, tyrannical, and are inevitably enforced against ordinary, non-criminal citizens.

As for the laws they break that aren’t unconstitutional, none of those are within the purview of ATF.

A Shocking Legal Development

Safnew

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in Calce v. City of New York, a case challenging New York City’s ban on electronic arms. [More]

Democrats really don’t want you defending yourself.

The Shape of Things to Come?

Major breaking news as the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in an AR-15 and magazine ban case has just entered a huge order, which I think is going to speak as to what the court is about to do. I suspect it’s going to be a big win for AR-15s and magazines. And it’s going to aid none other than the United States Supreme Court in ultimately, in my view, ruling that all bans on AR-15, semi-automatic rifles, and AK-47s, as well as ultimately magazines, all such laws are unconstitutional. And I think the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit out of New Jersey, Delaware, and Pennsylvania is going to contribute bigly to what’s about to happen. [Watch]

Here’s hoping things become so clear that even John and Amy can’t cloud them up.

A Change of Heart?

Judge Easterbrook then turned to the government’s position directly: “The United States contends that § 922(g)(4) is valid even with respect to persons who were never dangerous or who have recovered. That approach is hard to square with Heller, McDonald, Bruen, Rahimi, Hemani, and Wolford.” [More]

Considering what Easterbrook has said in the past, that’s an amazing turnaround.

Don’t Die for a Data Lie

Dramatics aside, it’s a known fact that any interactions with law enforcement, no matter how mundane, escalate the chances of a negative and potentially life-threatening outcome. Armed agents of the State with qualified immunity, taking someone by surprise over what is likely to be a bookkeeping error? [More]

So “false positives” have the potential to be much more than  inconvenient delays?

At least it’s bipartisan!

The Irreconcilable Difference

However, there is no reason to necessarily conclude the supreme court will decide this issue in the affirmative, especially with Barrett and Roberts having to be persuaded. [More]

They have shown a proclivity for leaving things to the states.

That would result in the greatest Constitutional crisis of our time, and set the trigger for the avalanche.
