I gotta get a new picture– I haven’t worn glasses since I got my eyes done, what, four or five years ago now…?
Bleaters, Traitors, Oath-Breakers, and Tools for Tyranny
The bills prohibit anyone convicted of a misdemeanor domestic violence offense from owning a firearm or ammunition for 8 years following the payment of all related fines and completion of incarceration or probation conditions. [More]
But we can otherwise trust him without a custodian because we all know prohibited persons won’t be able to get guns, right?
The other oft-overlooked point: Exaggerated or outright false vengeance charges can be made and people who are overwhelmed can be pressured into a misdemeanor plea to get the threat of more and more severe charges off their backs — especially if they’re of limited means and don’t understand their rights and where they can go for help.
If the GOP doesn’t blow ’24 and the court stays the same, expect SCOTUS to rule IAW Bruen. How much injustice will be done in the meantime, and how many won’t be able to afford to challenge the unlimited tax plunder resources of the state?

No one criticizes the DSM more than I do, but that is simply not so.
Then there’s this:
Laws, if enforced, would have prevented him from owning the firearm he used to shoot women and girls.
No, they would not have. They couldn’t have unless, like the gun-grabbers, your contention is that citizen disarmament edicts work to stop chronic criminals.
Credible gun influencers have a responsibility to know better than to parrot the NRA’s/NSSF’s “Enforce existing Intolerable Acts” crap.

Durbin, Duckworth Join Colleagues To Introduce Legislation To Deny Constitutional Rights to the Accused — there, I fixed it for them.
No prognosis yet on GovTrack, but with a Republican House consider this political posturing by the usual gang of rights prohibitionists in anticipation of SCOTUS enraging them in Rahimi.
Assuming the GOP doesn’t blow ’24.

It’s Academic
Based on the above literature and what I know from personal experience, legal possession of firearms must, in addition to already prescribed regulations, bi-yearly be obliged to take a gun-related training course, with fees, or risk having their licence confiscated. Gun owners must also, yearly, be interviewed by authorized personnel to articulate what they have been up to for the year, how they have used their gun over the past year and any problems they have had with their guns, licensing, or any other general concerns. [More]
I’ve talked before about Academia.edu, a website that features papers on all subjects and that I get notifications on when they post on guns. The above is from a 2014 paper, but what this idiot is proposing is useful to bring up now just to show just how delusional the pseudo-eggheads are, and how worthless their infringements against the obedient would be at addressing the real problems.
International Tribunal Lawsuit an Unconstitutional Attempt to Subvert Second Amendment
The same goes for the OAS and its Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, both of which have no authority, legal, moral, or otherwise, to impose their diktats and override “the supreme Law of the Land.” [More]
Our sympathy does not give sufferers leave to lay claim to our rights. And defund the OAS.
Kingmaker?
Could evangelical leader’s endorsement upend Trump’s massive lead before Iowa’s caucus? [More]
“Vander Plaats ran unsuccessfully for Governor of Iowa in 2002, 2006, and 2010. He was the party’s nominee for lieutenant governor in 2006, losing to Democrat Patty Judge.”
And his organization doesn’t think the right to keep and bear arms and immigration are important enough to feature as “Policy Issues.”
How they believe leaving core constituents out will help advance the issues they do care about is left unsaid. Which suits the Democrats just fine.
Looks like Faux News and the Vichycons are doing their best to listen to losers and keep the Stupid Party stupid.
Why?
Idiot du Jour
We should levy an additional tax on firearms and ammunition to help treat victims, including people who must live with the horror of gun violence. Maybe then gun manufacturers and their supporters would think twice about marketing their wares to unstable, angry customers. [More]
Flesh that out with details for us Dorothy, so everyone can see how clueless you really are.
It looks from “Comments” like nobody’s buying her line of sh!+ either, which, considering where this appeared, is a real positive sign that average Americans are seeing through the absurdity of all the stupid infringements.

Not Content to Eviscerate the Second Amendment, Gun-Grabbers Go After the First
What’s clear from both the Illinois and the California cases, is prohibitionist Democrats, thwarted by the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, will leave no right unabridged in their totalitarian obsession with controlling everything. [More]
If freedom prohibitionists can take the guns, what’s to stop them from taking everything else?
Where Credit is Due
The Supreme Court Should Not Let Bureaucrats Invent Crimes by Rewriting the Law – The Trump administration’s unilateral ban on bump stocks turned owners of those rifle accessories into felons. [More]
Let’s not forget the role Wayne LaPierre and Chris Cox played in paving the way (and good luck finding their joint statement on the NRA website anymore).
Pointing all that out and more seems to make some people uncomfortable. One angry reader canceled his subscription over it.
You know the type.

Received via email from WarOnGuns Correspondent Wynn A:
The sentiment of gun owners seems to be if it isn’t ‘registered’ the powers that be don’t know about it. Fools errand. As witnessed with Katrina the goons will go door to door and forcibly search all buildings. The citizens of New Orleans went along with this outlandish conduct. Will today’s Americans do the same?
By the time they’re at your door, it’s too late.
Depending on the area, I have a feeling that if this starts in any significant numbers, many confiscators will end up more concerned about what’s coming to their door.

Still want to pretend it’s not germane to the “single issue,” “gun rights leaders”?
