Carry On

The biggest win was stopping the “private building consent rule,” which declares all private property that is open to the public to be a prohibited place—unless the property owner expressly allows individuals to enter the premises with a firearm… The court also enjoined the ban on carrying in a place where alcoholic beverages were consumed from taking effect… And the court prevented the ban on carrying at public demonstrations from taking effect.

But “may issue” is still “may not”…?

Judicial Skulduggery

So the Ninth Circuit has immediately declared they’re going to handle this case en banc without allowing a three judge panel to hear it first… [Watch]

The only real question: Will the Supreme Court let 9th Circuit Democrat apparatchiks get away with how they’ve signaled they intend to rule?

An Unlawful Law and a Criminal Criminal Statute

The lawyers for Zaki Rahimi have filed a powerful compelling argument against the criminal statute 18 USC 922 G8 which is the question presented whether or not that is constitutional under the Second Amendment and Rahimi’s attorneys have 0:19 actually made some additional creative arguments that we’re going to talk about… [Watch]

Mark W. Smith breaks it down for us.

Once More Unto the Breach

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed several gun-control measures on Tuesday, including a bill that tightens the state’s concealed-carry rules and another that imposes a new tax on firearm and ammunition sales. [More]

If they’re already rated “A,” and since he’s still trying for even more, what further proof is needed that it will never be enough for these totalitarian freaks?

Of course, they’re talking about taking your guns.

“Unless we enshrine a Right to Safety in the Constitution, we are at the mercy of ideologues like Judge Benitez… This is exactly why I’ve called for a Constitutional amendment, and this is why I’ll keep fighting to defend our right to protect ourselves from gun violence.” [More]

How do YOU do it, liar, if not with guns?

Trump a Prohibited Person?

If Trump had bought the glock, [sic] there would have been questions about the legality of him buying it. [More]

Possibly. Even though ATF doesn’t list it, [CORRECTION: They cite it under the list] there’s the 18 U.S.C. § 922 prohibition (assuming you can navigate through the amendments) but then there’s the Texas judge’s Quiroz ruling

Beats me. If I were him I wouldn’t let anyone photograph me holding a gun without advice of counsel. I wonder if that will be used against him.

But by assuming he would have tried to buy it at the SC gun shop without having it go to an FFL in his state, they apparently missed the main question.

What’s with ‘Czar’ Again?

How come they never call them führers?

Jeez, is she sucking up to “community leaders” or what? Stick with what you know, I guess…

And living free from gun violence is a right — of nonaggressors. That’s why anything that makes us less free from it needs to be repelled with all force necessary.

Magazine Cover

Removable firearm magazines of all sizes are necessary components of semiautomatic firearms. Therefore, magazines come within the text of the constitutional declaration that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. [More]

Judge Benitez had better stay healthy.

Related UPDATE

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) launched a savage attack on a federal judge on social media Friday evening, calling U.S. Judge Roger T. Benitez “an extremist, right-wing zealot with no regard to [sic] human life.” [More]

Rhetoric like that ought to inspire the unhinged…

Much Ado About Nothing

Today, Congressman Cloud led a group of 29 Republicans in reintroducing, “The Protecting the Right To Keep and Bear Arms Act,” which would prevent President Biden and the Department of Health and Human Services from using public health emergencies to implement unconstitutional gun control. [More]

Yeah, well, “1% chance of being enacted,” so all the breathlessness over this attention-seeker of a bill is sucking oxygen away from priorities.

Holding out the promise of red meat when none is available is the oldest Republican trick in the book. They just never seem to press all that hard when they’re in a position to actually make something happen.

Blue-Skying

If … we trust you enough to drive a motor vehicle and register your driver’s license right and we’re going to opt you in to be a voter why not also opt these people in to carry guns under ccw permitting system so they get their own card that they can use across the country in relevant states that recognize through the reciprocity system those Concealed Carry Permits that are in your wallet…? [Watch]

It’s an interesting and creative thought but it’s dependent on reversing Democrat majorities and even then would be tied up in the courts for years waiting for a Supreme Court of as yet unknown composition to first agree to hear a case and then rule favorably on it.

Besides, reciprocity becomes a moot point as citizens, per SCOTUS in Dred Scott, have “the right to … keep and carry arms wherever they went.”

That and it’s hard to see how having more people voting favors anyone but ignorance-dependent Democrats. Me, I think Gov. Shapiro just signed the death warrant for PA Republican representation.

And based on his subversive gun betrayals, I think it’s deliberate sabotage by an embedded enemy.

Tales Out of School

Washington hijinks aside, Wyoming’s Cowboy State Daily reported on Monday that “despite the Biden administration’s efforts to defund school hunter education and archery programs as ‘dangerous weapons training’ for students, Wyoming will go ahead with expanding those programs in public schools throughout the state.” [More]

And yes, Cornyn and Tillis are tools.

That said, where in the Constitution is this even a thing?

And what’s with ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ for “sporting purposes“?

Let me know when they replace Fudd Funding with “Introduction to Your Militia Duties” classes.

All the Finest Tyrannies Do It

The federal government argued in a criminal case today that England’s disarming of Catholics provides historical support for modern laws disarming felons [More]

The same tyranny that was met with gunfire when they tried disarmament here, which ultimately inspired the Second Amendment…

Nothing like using bigotry to make your case…
