Notes from the Resistance
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in Calce v. City of New York, a case challenging New York City’s ban on electronic arms. [More]
Democrats really don’t want you defending yourself.
Just give them what they want? What if what they want is you, and are you really going to trust someone threatening to kill you over peanuts to know when to pull back?

Australians who defend themselves against an armed invader inside their own homes can be charged with a crime. [More]
Funny, who the laws don’t stop there…
Ten Years After Antifa Attack, a Reporter Seeks to Win Back His Second Amendment Rights [More]
That’ll teach him to keep a cowardly and sadistic commie mob from attacking him.

2 teens injured in bear encounter near Seattle [More]
Curious… “real reporter” Shafiq Najib doesn’t been address the one question millions of us “loony Heritage Americans” are wondering about…
Maybe we should ask “Margaret“…
Do Trans People Have “Stand Your Ground” Rights? Wyoming’s Answer May Be “No.” [More]
“May be” or “is”?
That’s what we have trials for.
Why do I have the feeling we’re not getting the whole story here?
Maybe because phrases like “people disproportionately targeted for harassment and violence” misdirect on who’s doing the abuse, something the gun prohibitionists don’t seem to want to point out.

Defensive Gun Use Statistics: Self-Defense Cases (2026) [More]
Using surveys, it’s impossible to come up with an accurate number, which explains the disparity of 2.5 million to 65,000 DGUs, which is still a lot more than the number of homicides.
The important statistic to remember is that 100% of gun prohibitionists would rather the defenders had been killed than armed.
Homeowner shoots, kills man reportedly breaking into their home in Spring … That altercation proceeded outside into the streets …
… The homeowner decided he followed the suspect out … It will be up to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office to determine whether any charges will be filed. [Watch]
It’s rarely in one’s legal interests to continue a confrontation outside. If it’s found there’s history, that will complicate things further.

But…but…but that’s not what “Only Ones” and gun-grabbers advise…

Bear attack in Yellowstone National Park leaves 2 hikers injured [More]
Yes, you can carry a gun in Yellowstone.
The bad news is:
But it’s illegal to fire it – even in self defense.
Just think, the people who enacted and enforce that edict all swore an oath to the Constitution. I wonder what the Framers would have thought about that.
Maryland LGBT Community Arming Up Over Fears [More]
Unfortunately, the source being The Liberal Gun Club is a stong indicator that they continue to vote for thier disarmers. I’ve pinned the cognitively dissonant down on that before:
We are Democrats, and as such we will support our party’s nominees for local, state, and federal office.
The other impression most will walk away with is they need to arm because of violent white homophobic males.

Across California, new legislation and shifting policies are raising serious questions about how churches can protect their congregations—often without clear guidance for pastors and church leaders. [More]
It looks like these folks aim to fix that.
If your pastor is too deluded, gutless, and/or corrupted to tell you the truth, you’re in the wrong church:
He that suffers his life to be taken from him by one who has no authority for that purpose, when he might preserve it by defense, incurs the Guilt of self murder since God has enjoined him to seek the continuance of his life, and Nature itself teaches every creature to defend [it]self.
University of Houston Hit With Third Armed Robbery on Campus This Year – “According to the university, the suspect pulled out a gun on multiple people, demanded they hand over their purses, and then took off.” [More]
How sorry am I supposed to feel for them?

This bill addresses the justified use of force. Highlighted Provisions: This bill: requires an individual to report using force; and establishes that an individual must report use of force in order to receive a pretrial justification hearing. [More]
“Use or threatened use”…? Not much room for nuance there…
What happened to “Don’t talk to the police“?
And why the “need”?
The bill is in response to a high-profile fatal road rage shooting.
I can identify with not reporting afterward.
Brought to you by not just a Republican, but one that comes highly recommended:
Funny…

Apparently the defender has a past that disqualifies him from being allowed to defend himself by those absolving themselves of custodial responsibilities. The state’s answer is clear and brief.
Be nice if there were some way citizens under similar forced disability knew what the rules were to get recognition of their rights back…
An Indiana dad who was accused of murder and assault for shooting at a mob of people attacking his son on his college campus will no longer be prosecuted. [More]
They didn’t get him on a gun charge?
You can debate federal policy all you want. But when your city faces a crime crisis, the question becomes simple: Will you accept help or grandstand while people suffer? [More]
That doesn’t change the fact that when seconds count, police — or agents — are minutes away.
Will you accept infringements on your right to protect yourself?
And don’t forget, both cities are run by Democrats/MAIG members, with the ones in Memphis doing their “best” to undermine TN permitless carry and preemption.
