My guess is hypocritical Fudds and Democrats, and “law-abiding” Vichycons.
Easy for me to say, right?
And only 2.5m FOID cards out of 10m adults? I wonder how many guns are held without the card…

Biden is breaking the border on purpose — he wants mass amnesty [More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.
Gun owners were quick to join in, pointing out the hypocrisy of gun-grabbers allegedly breaking gun laws they lobbied for and the delicious irony of the prohibitionists “hoist with their own petard.” [More]
I wonder if it’s a coincidence that the city backed down from participating in a highly publicized event just a few hours after I warned them the chief’s public admissions created a potential legal nightmare for them — and if similar warnings can be used to derail other “buybacks” where they’re incentivizing people with no safety training to handle and transport guns…
The Second Amendment Foundation has filed a federal lawsuit in California challenging that state’s law requiring firearms dealers to video record all transactions, calling it a violation of First, Second, Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights. [More]
What’s that saying about 1984 being an instruction manual…?
Democrats are literally totalitarians.
Gun rights groups sue Vermont over two firearms laws – The lawsuit challenges the state’s newly passed 72-hour waiting period for firearms purchases and a ban on high-capacity magazines that became law in 2018. [More]
I remember when permitless carry was called “Vermont carry” and it set the standard.
I wonder what Ethan Allen would think of Democrats.

MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [More]
What a bunch of bull$h!+ arguments.
They say you can’t judge a book by its cover, but I’m not so sure…
I can’t find a Senate confirmation roll call vote — anybody know if Boynton’s still “acting”?

With Christmas just a few days away we know many of you will be traveling to be with loved ones on this holy day… That being said, we want to bring you an update on our ongoing efforts to overturn the absurd and unconstitutional ruling of Judge Karin Immergut . [More]
A little something for the stocking…?
And semiautos/magazines…?
A new lawsuit was filed today against the County of Hawaii. Mr Day reached out to HIFICO a couple of weeks ago after being arbitrarily denied a license to carry firearms. We put him in contact with attorneys Alan Beck and Rick Holcombe, who filed today’s lawsuit on his behalf. [More]
I’m on the Hawaii Free Press mailing list and generally don’t have time to go through everything they send me, but they are on top of corruption there and I realize I don’t link to them enough.
They really do post a lot of eye-openers, so I suggest you bypass my shortcomings in calling attention to their stuff and bookmark their site for yourself.
Latino Democrats shift from quiet concern to open opposition to Biden’s concessions in border talks [More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

Ron DeSantis Holds Rally At Iowa Gun Store, Vows Big Changes For FBI “Culture” [Watch]
4:26:29 is too long for me to watch, but you get the idea.
I just wish one of these people promising us how good they’d be would put it in writing.

Don’t lose heart. This is just process.
It’s not the “historic win” the gaslighting gasbag Jay Pritzker is claiming.
It is, however, a right delayed.

“We recognize that ‘good moral character’ is a spongy concept susceptible to abuse.” [More]
Like the definition of “pornography“? Or “woman“?
I wonder if a Second Amendment advocate who believes it is a bulwark against domestic tyranny could be disqualified…
And if that would be sufficient to bring a libel suit…
…permit to purchase… mandatory … training … government registry… fingerprinting and a waiver of medically protected information… [More]
Just like the Founders used to require.
Or as an old friend of mine once said:
I sometimes wonder whether the socialists will issue an edict requiring all firearms to have a pink ribbon tied to the barrel, just to get a belly laugh as the panicked descendants of once-proud American patriots scurry to comply.

With Christmas around the corner and 2023 soon coming to a close, the 2024 New Mexico Legislative Session will be here before we know it. Since handing out coal could create carbon emissions, the Grinch in the Roundhouse is settling for attacking our rights again. [More]
Once more unto the breach…
“These may be the first two lawsuits filed by the Statewide Affirmative Firearms Enforcement office, but they will not be the last,” Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin (D) said in a news conference. “We’re putting everyone else in the gun industry on notice.” [More]
So you deserve to get raped because of that short skirt you wore and how dare you direct citizens to where things are legal…?
This Platkin creature is quite the zealous little fascist. It seems personal.
You know how you can tell he’s lying…?

“You’ve been watching too many shows and reading too many books,” the agents respond. “I’m sure we’ll find you again someday.” [More]
What are “the agents” names? That bullying arrogance needs names and faces attached to it.
Why did he talk to them at all? Any denial that can be proven false is a felony and a lifetime gun ban. They’re obviously trying to entrap him and from what I’m hearing, they may have unless he surreptitiously gets rid of it.
And why does the tab in the USA Today article read “Conspiracy theories abound…” ? What “conspiracy theories” does the “real reporter” document? Or is this just more of what we’ve some to expect from Gannett Publications…?
Funny, how the first heinous act of supprerssor abuse they could come up with to show how they’re too dangerous to trust the public with was:
A former Los Angeles Police Department officer armed with a Glock pistol and AR-15, both affixed with silencers, shot and killed four people in February 2013.
And in any case, they did not establish how the suppressor on the gun made it any more deadly or allowed the perps to get away with it, or had any more effect on what happened than the color shirt the killers wore. Hey, when you have a herd to spook, they’re not apt to sense a correlation/causation logical fallacy.
