Shirkers of the World Unite!

Communist, socialist activists push 20-hour workweek, property seizures as presence at protests grows – Activists say factories, mines and businesses should be placed under collective control [More]

Are you sleeping, bourgeoisie?

There’s never a Chilean helicopter around when you really need one.

Say, who’s up for some Minnesota DFW “gun control”?

To paraphrase Dr. Banner: Don’t make us give up rule of Constitutional law. You wouldn’t like us when we give up rule of Constitutional law.

Denial of Gun Licenses to Political Opposition in Germany Has Chilling Historic Precedent

Disarming anyone disfavored by the state is one of the oldest power guarantors devised by governments, and this happening in Germany recalls another set of laws imposed within the lifetimes of people still living. [More]

It’s déjà vu all over again.

Ultimately It’s You They’re Coming For

And now those radicals are activating the nutcase element of their movement to kill any public figure who dares disagree. That is not an accident. There is no lie they will not tell, no censorship they will not impose, and no political opponent they will not assassinate. All in pursuit of power and control. Specifically, power and control over you. [More]

Like Paul, I’d prefer resolving things at the ballot box, but it may be that a critical mass of gun owners don’t. I just wonder how many of those have a realistic backup plan that anticipates and has prepared for extended disruptions, hardships and losses, versus how many of those are just lazy and uninformed self-entitled beneficiaries of the efforts and sacrifices of others.

For those of you still committed to using the remarkable system bequeathed to us by the Framers, may I suggest a primer?

Perpetual Motion

Plaintiffs have filed a motion for summary judgment in Roberts v. ATF, one of the Second Amendment Foundation’s (SAF) three supported lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act’s (NFA) registration requirements for short-barreled firearms and silencers. [More]

I just keep coming back to “shall not be infringed” and wonder what evil madness has gripped what was supposed to be the exemplar of Liberty, and, noticing who’s fighting us on this and where the buck stops, what all those high-sounding promises really meant.

Thou Shalt Not Eat of It

Newly proposed and enacted legislation targeting 3D printers and CNC machines would impose restrictions more severe than those the Supreme Court rejects for actual guns.  In conjunction with restrictions on tools, states would create a category of computer source code illegal to possess. [More]

They literally presume the authority of God.

The We’re Going to Keep Being Communist Traitors Until Somebody Stops Us Act of 2026

Warner and Kaine Introduce Legislation to Safeguard Americans from the Scourge of Gun Violence [More]

Here it is.

2% chance of being enacted — for now.

Don’t worry– Mr. Trump and the Republicans are doing everything in their power to blow their majorities. And when the Democrats finally get the power to ram these into “law,” they’ll be back for more.

No one seriously thinks any of this is about “public safety,” do they?

Spider & the Fly

After 67 years, Cuba’s marriage to a Communist government has not yielded the promised dream. Dissidents are disappeared; refugees flee into shark-infested waters. Cubans are living in a nightmare. [More]

Made not just possible, but inevitable by “¿Armas para que?

Making Cuban American Democrats supporting citizen disarmament traitors to both countries. And speaking of which, if we’re talking generations, confused moron Emma is going backwards.

You’re a Daisy if You Do

New York Lawmakers Move to Restrict BB and Pellet Guns – Proposed legislation would redefine air guns as ‘imitation weapons’ and impose new regulations. [More]

In other words, I had more freedom as a boy in the Shah’s Iran than Americans do in the Land of the Second Amendment.

The Fix is In

The Democratic governor’s changes to House Bill 217/Senate Bill 749 remove the word “fixed” from part of the bill’s definition of an assault firearm, which could sharply expand the range of semi-automatic rifles and pistols swept into the ban, Republicans say. [More]

It’s good that DOJ is going to fight this, but let’s be careful not to turn “common use” into a trap.

Ultimately, it boils down to how many Virginians are committed to the Commonwealth’s motto.

This is My Shocked Face

New York City’s Prohibition on Stun Guns, Tasers Survives Appeal [More]

And here we thought the Supreme Court was pretty clear whan it ruled:

The Second Amendment extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms, even those that were not in existence at the time of the founding.

Until such @$$hole judges face consequences, this kind of crap will continue.

Assuming you don’t want to pay Bloomberg Law to read their spin, Four Boxes Diner breaks things down for us.
