Approaching Zero Hour

Judge declines to stay assault weapons ban ahead of Jan. 1 registration deadline [More]

What are your options when your own government, headed by a morbidly obese collectivist billionaire, makes you a criminal for refusing to surrender your rights and his allied political courts take away all means of peaceable recourse?

Incompetent ‘Contagious Disease’ Diagnosis for Guns a Prescription for Tyranny

So, if someone else does it you can catch it? What’s the agent of transmission, and how does it enter the body? Can we vaccinate against it? [More]

If what they say is true, shouldn’t we all be wearing face diapers or something?

Just Kneel Down and Rest Your Head on This Block…

Protect Illinois Communities Act Statistics
Number of Individuals Completing a Disclosure: 8,143
Total Disclosures: 24,381
Firearms Disclosures: 15,877
Accessory Disclosures: 8,335
Ammunition Disclosures: 169 [More]

My guess is hypocritical Fudds and Democrats, and “law-abiding” Vichycons.

Easy for me to say, right?

And only 2.5m FOID cards out of 10m adults? I wonder how many guns are held without the card…

New Mexico Anti-Gun Group Investigated for Breaking Gun Laws

Gun owners were quick to join in, pointing out the hypocrisy of gun-grabbers allegedly breaking gun laws they lobbied for and the delicious irony of the prohibitionists “hoist with their own petard.” [More]

I wonder if it’s a coincidence that the city backed down from participating in a highly publicized event just a few hours after I warned them the chief’s public admissions created a potential legal nightmare for them — and if similar warnings can be used to derail other “buybacks” where they’re incentivizing people with no safety training to handle and transport guns…

Big Brother is Watching You

The Second Amendment Foundation has filed a federal lawsuit in California challenging that state’s law requiring firearms dealers to video record all transactions, calling it a violation of First, Second, Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights. [More]

What’s that saying about 1984 being an instruction manual…?

Democrats are literally totalitarians.

The Green Mountain Grift

Gun rights groups sue Vermont over two firearms laws – The lawsuit challenges the state’s newly passed 72-hour waiting period for firearms purchases and a ban on high-capacity magazines that became law in 2018. [More]

I remember when permitless carry was called “Vermont carry” and it set the standard.

I wonder what Ethan Allen would think of Democrats.

And Vichycon swine.

Making a Mockery of ‘Shall Not Be Infringed’ in Mock

MEMORANDUM IN OPPOSITION TO PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [More]

What a bunch of bull$h!+ arguments.

They say you can’t judge a book by its cover, but I’m not so sure…

I can’t find a Senate confirmation roll call vote — anybody know if Boynton’s still “acting”?

Sounds Like a Plan

And semiautos/magazines…?

A Right Denied

A new lawsuit was filed today against the County of Hawaii. Mr Day reached out to HIFICO a couple of weeks ago after being arbitrarily denied a license to carry firearms. We put him in contact with attorneys Alan Beck and Rick Holcombe, who filed today’s lawsuit on his behalf. [More]

I’m on the Hawaii Free Press mailing list and generally don’t have time to go through everything they send me, but they are on top of corruption there and I realize I don’t link to them enough.

They really do post a lot of eye-openers, so I suggest you bypass my shortcomings in calling attention to their stuff and bookmark their site for yourself.

Thinking Outside the Dox

…Indiana Superior Court Judge John M. Sedia denied an order to quash subpoenas for records maintained by several large Indiana gun dealers. [More]

Who does he think he is?

Rob Bonta?

Lies of Omission

Responding to my Bill of Rights Day post, War on Guns Correspondent Antigone sends two links:

  • Holiday Today figured the appropriate image to accompany their article was multicultural fists and didn’t feel the Second Amendment was worth mentioning.
  • It looks like they sourced their piece from the government’s U.S. Courts website. A “Students Sound Off about the Bill of Rights” video posted there does very briefly mention 2A, first with an ignorant young gelding who declares it “is no longer relevant to members of the general public and should only apply to a professional military.” He’s countered by a girl whose only reason for supporting it is “…because I’m a member of the NRA.”

Don’t forget the Preamble!

They’ll Know It When They See It?

“We recognize that ‘good moral character’ is a spongy concept susceptible to abuse.” [More]

Like the definition of “pornography“? Or “woman“?

I wonder if a Second Amendment advocate who believes it is a bulwark against domestic tyranny could be disqualified…

And if that would be sufficient to bring a libel suit…

Thank You, Sir, May I Have Another?

…permit to purchase… mandatory … training … government registry… fingerprinting and a waiver of medically protected information… [More]

Just like the Founders used to require.

Or as an old friend of mine once said:

I sometimes wonder whether the socialists will issue an edict requiring all firearms to have a pink ribbon tied to the barrel, just to get a belly laugh as the panicked descendants of once-proud American patriots scurry to comply.
