The Monroe (County) Doctrine

Shoemaker submitted his original response to the complaint on Sept. 18, including a defense reading: “There was and will be no Constitutional violation in enforcing the statute because the phrase ‘bear arms’ is a 1791-era idiom referring to military or militia service. Plaintiffs have failed to plead their involvement in a militia.” [More]

He “loves history“? You can’t prove it by this.

This is the quality of moron presuming to detemine your rights in New York? What repercussions will this douche suffer?

Looks like the county prosecutor is just as big of an @$$hole.

To those praising the “Only One” for “deescalation,” this was elitism writ large. He knew who she was and who she knows. Imagine what he would have done to her if she weren’t the DA, that is, to you and me, for the same behavior.

All she had to do was “apologize,” and she’s back to having the uniforms put you and me behind bars for claiming our rights.

According to His Nature

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms says California Gov. Gavin Newsom is a hypocrite for signing a law barring local governments from requiring voter identification, while still expecting gun buyers to provide ID before exercising their Second Amendment rights. [More]

Same question I asked here…

So… does this mean they’re reconsidering…?

Gillibrand vs. Sapraicone: The Race for US Senate forum [Watch]

So. Mike is for “red flag laws and background checks”?

Then why should I believe someone who doesn’t understand the Second Amendment won’t betray us on semiautos the first chance he gets to distance himself from another “gun-free zone” exploitation?

Just like Kirsten did…?

She has such a huge lead anyway, why should the gun owners in her district who aren’t Fudds bust their humps on a losing battle to push for a betrayer with an (R) after his name, and what message would that send the GOP on acceptable candidates?

Wait for It

Whether we’re talking about 2 minutes to register to vote or 10 or more minutes or even 30 minutes to vote these are a drop in the bucket compared to the months and months and months that some Americans in anti-gun jurisdictions have to wait to be able to get their carry permit to exercise their Second Amendment right… [Watch]

I’ve never applied for one so I wouldn’t know.

Hey, if it only takes two minutes to register, what’s all the phony brouhaha about disenfranchising voters because it’s too hard to prove eligibility?

How can you tell Don Hagan is lying?

Florida City Moves to Illegally Ban Gun Sales in Aftermath of Hurricane [More]

And Boss Hagan thinks he’s got the meathead thugs to back that up.

Facebook commenters are having none of it.

And what happened on X?

Massie Answers Questions on Permitless Carry Reciprocity and Donald Trump

Rep. Thomas Massie made the news recently when he introduced HR9534, the National Constitutional Carry Act, correctly noting “No one should have to beg the government to exercise a constitutionally protected right anywhere in the country.” [More]

I asked him direct questions and true to form (and unlike most), he answered directly. President Trump really needs to look at why Massie takes the positions he does and realize that’s what it will take to Make America Great Again.

An Age-Old Question

The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit heard oral argument today in the Reese v. ATF lawsuit involving a federal gun control law preventing young adults from purchasing handguns from FFLs. [Watch]

The ultimate absurdity is young adults being old enough to vote for the government to tell them they’re not old enough to own guns.

GRNC 2024 Candidate Evaluations

This guide estimates where candidates stand on gun issues by comparing their views with those of a control group of gun owners. As noted below, a “4-STAR” candidate agrees with the control group on at least 90% of gun issues, a 3-STAR agrees on least 80%, a 2-STAR on at least 70%, a 1-STAR on at least 60%, and a 0-STAR candidate agrees on less than 60% of gun issues. [More]

It’s a place to start and will no doubt be “single issue” strong.

I’d like to see the criteria and if “the greatest threat” is considered.

If Wishes Were Fishes

Yeah, but…

Prognosis 1% chance of being enacted

Let Republican win in November and we’ll see where it goes. And Massie knows better than anyone how that works.
