Notes from the Resistance
But our conversation provides a real-world example of why we should be skeptical of the idea that gun violence will be solved by finding common ground with gun owners. [More]
Yeah, well, seeing as how Nina just spent over a thousand words hosted by the far-reaching DSM without offering one idea that can work, that is, proving herself a proponent of the definition of insanity, I’d say there’s not much to talk about.

Iannicelli feels his second amendment right to bear arms has been violated by the Florence Gun Shop making him unable to complete his gun purchase. Iannicelli felt the shop denied his background check because of his personal business card that included a link to a website affiliated with Antifa. In addition, Iannicelli said a gun store should not be able decide whether or not to give a background check based on political affiliation. [More]
I’d be in trouble, too, because I’d do the same with Democrats.
I hope their lawyer makes the case that with increased ATF “scrutiny” aimed at revoking FFLs over minor paperwork glitches, the Presidential “Memorandum on Inadmissibility of Persons Affiliated with Antifa Based on Organized Criminal Activity” makes him fear processing a transfer without official guidance– and put the burden on reversing that and declaring Antifa members have an individual right to keep and bear arms on the Biden administration, Merrick Garland, Christopher Wray, and Steve Dettelbach.

…the lawyers for the plaintiff, specifically attorney Stephen Stamboulieh, an excellent lawyer — we’ve talked a lot about him before — uh, Stephen has done a great job in a lot of cases including the Antonyuk case, and he wrote a very powerful opposition to this making a whole host of arguments as to why this is no good and, uh, I will put a link to his brief down below his motion to strike… [Watch]
It’s nice to see a “small cadre” member getting bigger.

Wherein, among other things, host Mark Walters and I discuss spiders in Venturi tubes, Mark’s teeth, Alec Baldwin, background checks for 3D printers, GOP presidential candidates on 2A, and why I’m a proud “gun criminal.”

TODAY on AAR Daily Defense it’s special guest @dcodrea David Codrea. [More]
Go to the AAR website to listen/watch via live streaming and/or find a station near you.
Host Mark Walters hasn’t told me what he wants to talk about, but I can guess. I also want to make sure we announce my two just-published pieces from AmmoLand and Firearms News.
Firearms News will be exploring where these contenders stand on the Second Amendment, in both a separate analysis documenting actions, positions, and statements, and via a questionnaire, the subject of this article, designed to produce unequivocal answers. [More]
Finding out who shines us on, who sends us boilerplate, and who is not afraid to lead on the Second Amendment, could be useful to know for the primaries.
When the bill predictably fails to reduce New York homicides (because it’s focused on all the wrong things, like not on the criminals), look for new hysterical and pointless demands, like banning out-of-state sales, banning “straw purchases” of printers, banning printer parts, and blaming “red” states with “lax printer laws.” And let’s not forget banning possession of 3D printers by prohibited persons, to be expanded to anyone under a restraining order, on a watchlist, or “red-flagged,” followed by “may issue” permits for anyone else who wants one. [More]
You can’t cite the Founders out of one side of your mouth and then undermine everything they stood for out of the other. Well, you could if you’re a New York Democrat bragging about your foreign values…
The same will be true this time around if voters legalize marijuana for recreational use. If you use marijuana, you lose your gun rights regardless of state law. [More]
No, you’ll lose recognition of your rights.
Don’t use a credit card and lie on the 4473, and don’t be/do/talk stupid, and chances are you won’t get caught.
Supreme Court tells Fifth Circuit to stop its defiance in ghost gun case … voiding the lower court orders and allowing the ATF regulations to go into effect pending further litigation. There were no noted dissents. [More]
Because we all know how big the Founders were on serial numbers and background checks…
I infer Nina Totenberg’s celebratory tone. That said, I’m not sure this isn’t more about following procedural steps than signaling a predisposition on an ultimate ruling.
And that said, citizens’ lives and livelihoods are jeopardized in the interim, and that hardly seems consistent with “secur[ing] the Blessings of Liberty…”
US Court of Appeal for Ninth Circuit declared Hawaii’s butterfly knife ban to be unconstitutional under the 2nd Amendment. Hawaii hires $2400 per hour attorney to try to save the BAN but 2nd Amendment briefs are terrific and should prevail. [Watch]
Major props for Alan Beck and Stephen Stamboulieh who routinely take to the field to battle mercenaries.

I won’t have any kids until the 2nd amendment is abolished. I’m sorry but I don’t want my kids to fear for their lives every time they are dressed up in their uniforms. Congress must act immediately! [More]

A victory for Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham in court, at least for now, in the fight over her controversial gun ban. A federal court denied the preliminary injunction against the governor’s health order, allowing for the enforcement against carrying guns in public parks and playgrounds. [More]
He reasoned that the founding era was not the ratification date of the Second Amendment. He claimed the founding era was started in 1868 during the reconstruction era when the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified. At that time, gun laws were being passed in the South to prevent formerly enslaved people from obtaining firearms. These racist gun laws are the ones that Judge Urias used in his decision.
Why would he do that, you ask…?
He was nominated by President Joe Biden (D)…
That’s a lot of Republicans who didn’t bother to vote.

Great, but help me out here.
What does provisioning the standing army have to do with “defending the Second Amendment” and “reaffirming Arkansans’ right to keep and bear arms…”?
