A Considered Opinion

“We remind the court that the Second Amendment refers to a right ‘of the people’ without mentioning age, and certainly young adults fall within the definition of ‘the people’ ever since they’ve been allowed to vote, and generations before that when they were considered part of the militia, and have been accepted into the military.” [More]

They’re not just “considered.” They’re recognized by law.

Soldier of Distortion

Doug McGaw is a military veteran of Vietnam with a Purple Heart, Bronze Star and Combat Infantry Badge. [More]

Including that bio snip to presume he knows what he’s talking about on the right to keep and bear arms is what psychologists call “false authority” or “expert fallacy.“

And the danger to liberty of blindly following “war heroes” should be self evident.

There’s a Storm Coming

Biden preps rollout of expanded background checks as part of major gun safety push into 2024 [More]

They perceive “gun control” is now a winning issue and are doing a major and massively-funded push to stir up the useful idiots to demand more infringements. And they’re branching out to Everytown, including yours.

They don’t care if things get tied up in post-Bruen court challenges — they have the tax plunder resources to sustain the long run, and they’re counting on using every trick in the book — from the superhighway to citizenship to prosecuting Trump, to more outright election steals to get the majority needed to populate SCOTUS with apparatchiks like in Illinois.

Don’t look for any but a handful of Republicans to go on offense.

Ultimately, it’s going to boil down to a percentage of the populace reviled by Democrats and their DSM water carriers saying “No.”

They’re going to force it on us. On you.

Oakland PD Airhorn Advice is an Admission of Gun Control Failure

Oakland officials not only don’t have a plan to fix anything but what they’re doing can only make things worse. [More]

What we have here are useful idiots who don’t have a clue being manipulated by power interests who know exactly what they’re doing.

Something in Common

Just as they chose handguns in Heller, the American people in large numbers have chosen to arm themselves for their protection with ammunition feeding devices capable of holding more than ten rounds. Because the arms at issue are “in common use” and typically possessed by law abiding citizens for lawful purposes, Washington’s ban violates the Second Amendment. [More]

The common use the Founders were interested in is by the military. That’s why they said “arms.”

Conflict of Interest? What Conflict of Interest?

Elizabeth Rochford, the judge who pushed Illinois’ “assault weapon” ban over the top, is a demonstrably allied with and beholden to the gun-grabbers and did not recuse herself. [More]

This is the real story, about in-your-face corrupt tyranny, deserving of screaming headlines.

Instead, not a single “#real reporter” working for the DSM (Duranty/Streicher Media) is reporting on this, and like so many stories of import to freedom, we have to learn about it from rights advocates followed by limited niche interests. Meanwhile, as planned and controlled, the general voting public remains blissfully ignorant of what’s being done to them by apparatchiks, deceivers, and those who pull their strings.

An honest “progressive” would object to this. Guess what it means that none has.

Free people cannot coexist with this.

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

Darren Bailey—a Republican who ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2022 and who is now running for Congress—threatened to end his own life if cops come to seize his assault rifles after the Illinois Supreme Court upheld the state’s assault weapons ban on Friday. [More]

That’s not what he said, Caitlan Cruz of Jezebel and Yahoo! News, you liars.

That said, the guy needs to channel him some Patton.

Treasonous Liars Demand to Be Heard

More than 100 Democrats are calling on Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to schedule votes on gun violence prevention legislation, the latest push by members of the minority party to spark action on gun reform. [More]

Tell them to go f*** themselves.

And what’s with “reform,” Authorized Journalist Michael Schnell…?
