New York 3D Printer Control Bill is Tyrannical, Unworkable and Un-American

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.

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…

Up in Smoke?

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.

The Ghost of a Chance

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…

Here’s the order.

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…”

The Butterfly Effect

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.

Sounds More Like a Promise than a Threat

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]

Gotta be a troll/satire account.

Just gotta be.

All It Takes is One Robed Traitor

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]

John Crump explains:

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.

SIG Events

New Hampshire-based firearms company Sig Sauer plans a $150 million expansion of its Elite Performance Ammunition manufacturing facility in Jacksonville to help fulfill its contract with the U.S. Department of Defense. [More]

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…”?

Flight of the Nazgûl 

Ninth Circuit issues partial stay in California large-capacity gun magazine case – The four dissenting judges railed against the majority decision, calling the Ninth Circuit’s attitude about the Second Amendment “laughably absurd.” [More]

Except this is no laughing matter.

The Ninth Circuit wrote the book on Second Amendment absurdity going back to their “no individual right” days when the late, dunderheaded Cynthia Holcomb Hall wrote:

Moreover, even if we determined that Hickman had standing to sue for violation of the Second Amendment, his suit would nevertheless fail because the Second Amendment is not incorporated into the Bill of Rights.

Green Mountain Boys Need Not Apply

‘Calling forth the Militia’ [More]

Not if the government has anything to say about it.

A lot fewer of us would die if the damned elected traitors and their functionaries hadn’t undermined our ability to organize and approach something resembling “well regulated.” And our “gun groups” with their legal efforts focused exclusively on “self-defense” own their portion of the mass uncoordinated unpreparedness.

Achtung, Mitglieder der Hausbesitzervereinigung

Our homeowners’ association is considering banning guns everywhere in the community, including in the residents’ homes. Many of the residents are upset about this, while others are in favor of it. Is the association even able to enact this rule? [More]

Tyranny starts small, and always offers “justification.”

I always wondered what ever happened to Witless and Titless.

Yes, he’s an Obama appointee to be sure, but Mike Lee is the only Republican who voted against him.
