While searching for something else today I ran across this 2015 post from the old blog, that in turn linked to an admission from the political left that supports everything I’ve been warning about regarding immigration and the Second Amendment.
Category: Second Amendment
The FuddVoters Candidate
El-Sayed Dodges Twice on if He Wants to Replace 2nd Amendment Before Saying He’s Okay With Hunting Rifles [More]
For hunting tyrants and domestic enemies…?
Besides, we already have “a right to healthcare.”
We just don’t have a right to force someone else to provide it for us– that’s called slavery.

None Dare Call It Megalomania
Kathy Hochul defended her state’s ban on 3D-printed guns, saying, “I’m going to be the one who says no.” [More]
Note the way she equates all citizens determined to exercise rights she has no legitimate claim to with “someone in their kitchen who may have severe mental health problems who wants to shoot up kids in your school.”
It sounds like the severe mental problems are hers– especially if she believes she can stop those determined citizens.
Grant/Viramontes Brief of the Petitioners
Whether the Second and Fourteenth Amendments guarantee the right to possess AR-15 platform and similar semiautomatic rifles. [More]
You know the answer to that and I know the answer to that.
The question isn’t so much how many Supreme Court Justices know the answer to that as how many will not willingly subvert the Constitution and betray their countrymen?
With Friends Like These
After explaining why United States v. Miller protects arms with a reasonable relationship to militia efficiency, the brief declares that the “general consensus” is that automatic weapons are not protected. [More]
Is he a friend?
Or does he see which way the wind is blowing and is trying to secure the main infringement?
Quantity Has a Quality All Its Own
Overall, Americans own approximately 461 million firearms, consisting of approximately 208 million handguns, 154 million rifles, and 99 million shotguns. [More]
And DGUs are back in the millions.
Yeah, well how do they vote, if at all?
Cuccinelli to Argue Militia Clause Protects AR-15s in Supreme Court Brief
“That is the focus I would bring to an amicus brief: establishing a constitutional principle that not only prevents ‘military’ characteristics from becoming a constitutional liability, but makes them an affirmative basis for protection.” [More]
The Framers put the prefatory clause in there for a reason.
Anyone Who’s Ever Properly Raised Children Can See the Problem Here
The National Rifle Association (NRA) is pushing back against a growing wave of state and local regulations targeting firearms dealers, arguing that proposals aimed at tightening oversight threaten the survival of small gun shops rather than improving public safety. [More]
With no personal consequences for thumbing their noses at Bruen, what do we expect?

Toy Story
Firearm ‘Expert’ Who Testified a Toy was a Machinegun Still Working for ATF [More]
At first glance I thought Lee Williams was talking about ol’ Kelvin “Insert-Magazine-Backwards” Crenshaw (Note now-discontinued Examiner links go to Internet Archive, so expect slow loading).
It also reminds me of the artifical contortions the JBTs go through to entrap Americans out of their unalienable rights on invented technicalities, like we’re gong to use duct tape, ties, and chains to workaround unconstitutional infringements.
And it reminds me of what the evil bastards did to David Olofson.
“Reforms” and gushing from some “gun rights leaders” notwithstanding, never forget, the Framers would have considered ATF and everything it stands for an abomination. Less aggressive cancer is still cancer.
CMP Converted M14 Sales Upends ATF’s Once a Machine Gun Rule
That the situation is confusing is hardly surprising. ATF cognitive dissonance and contradictory rules could be considered the rule rather than the exception without hyperbole. And in this case, the position the Bureau had previously established is clear… [More]
Just what (and who) does “special authorization” authorize?
We’re the Only Ones Heading Off Enough
The suspect 35-year-old Philan-Tam-Duy Le of Julian, CA, was arrested for Carrying a Dangerous Weapon for being in possession of the guillotine. [More]
The medium is the message, one that more in DC need to hear.
Their enforcers stifling it as a prior restraint without a credible threat sounds like a violation of both the First and Second Amendments.

We’re the Only Ones Overequipped Enough
Remember the gungrabber lie “The police are outgunned”?
This is the standing army the Framers feared. And the traitors who deploy enforcers for citizen disarmament use pejoratives like “weapons of war designed to mass kill” to swindle the ignorant and the cowardly into falling for semi-auto bans, while calling the ones they use “patrol rifles.”
Here’s a question that those — who rightfully fear we’ll never be able to count on a critical mass of “Only Ones” refusing to follow unlawful orders — should be asking:
What Would Happen if “Battle of Athens” Round Two Ever Becomes Necessary?
I guess it’s not fair to judge until you’ve goose-stepped a mile in their jackboots…
The Method to Her Madness and the Company She Keeps
My plan is to set term limits for Supreme Court Justices at 18 years and institute an age limit of 75 across the federal bench. [More]
But no term limits for Congress…? Bernie’s still good…?
Sounds like, among other thing, she’s anticipating a SCOTUS ruling on semi-auto and magazine bans, wants Bruen overturned and loosened ATF rules tightened back up.
And why is she endorsed by the same group that endorses Abdul El-Sayed, who in turn is backed by Hasan Piker, who says “I wipe my BLEEP with the Constitution“?
Oh, and while I was looking for a suitable graphic, I ran across this gunkapo moron.
You don’t hate Democrat Fudds enough.
Once in a Lifetime
Speaking of ‘Commonsense Gun Safety Laws’…
This is what the prohibitionists really mean when they throw out terms like “gun sense” :
The early grabbers actually admitted it from the start until they figured out they needed to reach their goal through incremental lies.
Now We’re Just Haggling Over the Price
It’s the embarrassing charge that raises eyebrows because York is reportedly worth $500 million and the family fortune is believed to hover around $8.5 billion, but he allegedly tried to enlist the services of a prostitute for $140. [More]
Hey, he can afford expensive whores, like the ones he gave half-a-million to for more citizen disarmament.
“It seems insane to me that a citizen can buy something like that,” York said… “I’m not anti-Second Amendment. This is something that is common sense.”
Come and take it, rich kid. I’ve taken on bigger and better-funded bullies than you.
What seems insane to me is people who won’t control themselves demanding to control those of us who do not share in their moral defects.
We’re the Only Ones Reminding Enough
$#!+ or Go Blind?
That raises an uncomfortable legal question GRNC’s counsel has flagged: if federal registration is impossible for a covered item, does not being registered still count as being “in compliance with” the federal scheme for purposes of North Carolina’s exception? No court or state authority has answered that question. Until one does, NC gun owners are in a zone of legal ambiguity. [More]
So… I take it Ted Davis and Bill Brisson will be no help?
Skin in the Game
Ex-“Only One” out to make a few bucks… figures. And, of course, no mention of FASTER.
Now do one on teachers trying to put out a five-alarm fire and use that as justification to remove extinguishers.
What a dishonest presentation. Nobody’s asking them to play Bruce Willis clearing the Nakatomi Tower.
And nobody’s forcing a commitment on anyone. But you start infringing on individual choice to exercise Constitutionally – protected freedom under force of arms and you’ve told everyone whose camp you’re in. As have voices supporting that, using the false authority logical fallacy to mask the fact that anyone defending “gun-free zones” is an oath-breaking statist.
But you know who agrees with you on no guns in schools, Jason?

Piecemeal Prohibitionists
Me-can I buy individual parts? State-yeah, for repairs. Do I have to prove I have the gun first? No…. So I can just buy all of the parts in a build kit individually in the same cart and purchase just not as a single item….. [More]
While HB 1240 obviously targets complete firearms, its language is written broadly enough to ensnare PARTS [Emphasis Added] and kits that could be used to assemble a banned weapon. This is a huge minefield for online sellers.
I’m not a lawyer and I don’t play one on TV, but if I were going to try a workaround, I’d find a way that didn’t leave a trail of invoice breadcrumbs.
And naturally, what would any militia disarmament edict be without a standing army exemption?
The law does have carve-outs for sales to law enforcement agencies and active-duty military personnel who are purchasing for official use.
Just like the Framers intended, no?
