.50-.50

The Stop Arming Cartels Act of 2024 will address these challenges by: Banning the manufacture, importation, sale, transfer, or possession of .50 caliber rifles excluding governmental use of these arms. Regulating .50 caliber rifles that are currently possessed lawfully under the National Firearms Act, by assigning a fee waiver and 12-month grace period to register on the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. Establishing an exception to the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), enabling victims of gun violence to sue manufacturers and dealers who engage in firearm transactions that violate the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (the ā€œKingpin Actā€).
Prohibiting the distribution of firearms, either through sale or transfer, to individuals sanctioned under the Kingpin Act, and incorporating Kingpin Act designations into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). Mandating that firearms dealers report multiple sales of rifles to state and local law enforcement agencies, mirroring the current requirement for handguns. [More]

And what do they credit for getting their foot in the door?

…legislation that builds on the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act…

Thanks again, John!

The traitor Durbin introduced this in ’23.

This version?

0% chance of being enacted

It’s useful to know that this is part of the longterm plan, but for now our energies are better focused on more immediate threats. Still, it’s not inappropriate to remind people who weren’t around when .50s first started coming under organized attack how obnoxiously idiotic it was trying to “defend” owning .50s to the DSM as a “hobby” while simultaneously throwing hard core 2A activists under the bus.

With “pro-gun leadership” like that, is it any wonder the dual citizenship Hessian banned them in CA?

No worries: He still got their endorsement.

One Thing, For Damned Sure

So how come he endorsed Joe Biden?

“Respect it”? Isn’t that what every gun-grabber claims to do, right before showing us their big “but”…?

Explain 2A to us, Dwayne. Now explain which infringements you view as “commonsense” and “reasonable.”

Low information gun owners easily enthused by meaningless buzzwords from self-serving celebrities remind me of nothing so much as this:

With the unparalleled information available to them, there’s no excuse for this. And GOA is supposed to be deeper than this.

Whatever the Brace May Be

The Second Amendment Foundation has filed a reply brief with the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in its challenge of the ā€œFinal Ruleā€ issued by the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives regarding arm braces for pistols. [More]

In truth, we have an absolute right to keep and bear short-barreled rifles as well, and the damn tyrants denying them to us know it.

Making the Federalists’ Argument Against a Bill of Rights for Them

ā€œIf you take ā€˜the people’ at the founding of the country, that means only white property owners have the right to bear arms,ā€ McHugh said. In that case, McHugh pointed out, neither she nor Stevenson would be allowed to bear arms today. [More]

“Allowed…”?

Ah, the old “rights are granted” fraud. That this ignoranus is sitting on a federal bench is an obscene travesty.

And no one challenged her to show where in the Consitution it said the government was delegated the authority to disarm any free person?

Of Little Import?

Frank Ross Talbert, 40, a Lieutenant Colonel with U.S. Army Explosives Ordinance Disposal (EOD) assigned to Fort Campbell, is facing federal criminal charges after law enforcement officers conducted an investigation and executed multiple search warrants uncovering evidence that Talbert unlawfully imported firearms parts from Russia and other countries, unlawfully dealt in firearms without a federal firearms license, and committed multiple firearms violations related to the possession of machineguns… [More]

Disregarding for a moment that we all should be able to do that, I’m wondering how he thought he could without getting caught and if he exploited his official position in any way to do it.

Or is this just an hysterical way of painting snaring him with some technicalities?

Speaking of Liabilities

No conflict of interest there, right?

[W]hile in the legislature, I championed gun safety laws including a bill proposing gun owners carry liability insurance

Aside from no insurance policy covering willful criminal and negligent acts, guess who they can’t require to get insurance, because to force them to admit they had guns would violate the Fifth Amendment…

Black Rights Matter

Dexter Taylor Sentenced 10 Years for Building His Own Firearms After Judge Banned Mentions of Second Amendment – ā€œShe told us, ā€˜Do not bring the Second Amendment into this courtroom. It doesnā€™t exist here. So you canā€™t argue Second Amendment. This is New York.’ā€ [More]

Sounds like the wrong person is behind bars.

Any chair in a bar fight…

Both ‘Sides’ Ignoring the Instinctive Truth

Likening drug users to people who are “mentally ill and dangerous,” the ruling says barring them from owning firearms is not unconstitutional on its face. [More]

vs.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just said that the felon in possession of firearms statute may not apply to nonviolent felons. [Watch]

They did it!

They missed the barn!
