Like a Good Nachbar

Freeman said the insurance requirement was analogous to some 19th-century laws requiring gun owners to post bond in order to carry a gun. [More]

Ah yes, Licky Liccardo’s law…

The antis will try to use Bruen’s “historical understanding” to justify every disarmament edict they can think up. Let unsaid with that approach:

Were those edicts ever challenged on Second Amendment grounds? Because what they won’t find is the Supreme Court upholding such “laws.”

Return You Will to Old Brazil

‘The police come here to hunt’: Brazilian cops kill at 9 times the rate of U.S. law enforcement [More]

What does that really mean, who are they killing, and what kind of circumstances are we talking about here? And how does that compare with the “good old days”?

Seems kind of self-defeating that Brazilians are poised to oust the guy who wants them armed and bring in a corrupt Marxist who demands disarming them and bringing back an “Only Ones”-enforced monopoly of violence.

It figures the DSM would put out a timely hit piece to help make that happen, with The Los Angeles Times leading the pack.

Plain Speaking

I had an understanding that there was a requirement that the law needed to be written so that an ordinary citizen could understand it. How else can you require an ordinary citizen to comply with a law? [More]

Who says the rulers want us to?

And as for the “requirements,” they’re going to have an awfully tough time when reading comprehension has been deliberately degraded in the public schools.

Just perfect!

ATF ‘Brace Amnesty’ Is an Unworkable Entrapment that Dictates Terms of Surrender

“MAYBE what it will do is get some Member(s) of Congress to request GAO to do a forensic audit of the NFRTR to determine its accuracy and reliability,” another one of my “small cadre” advisors chimed in, pointing out the elephant in the room that “amnesty” proponents don’t much want to talk about. [More]

They have no authority to do it, they have no capability to do it, and on top of that, it’s a trap.  Sounds like SOP for ATF.

Survey SAYS…

If Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) and U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D) face off in a possible 2024 U.S. Senate contest, 41 percent of Virginians would support Kaine, while 39 percent could support Youngkin, according to this year’s survey. [More]

How would this be possible?

“More… we need more!” says Mark Warner.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority…

And Jorge helped!

Clear as Mud

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is issuing this open letter to further assist the firearms industry and the public in understanding whether a “partially complete, disassembled, or nonfunctional” receiver of an AR-15/M-16 variant weapon has reached a stage of manufacture such that it “may readily be completed, assembled, restored, or otherwise converted” to a functional receiver, and is therefore classified as a “frame or receiver” or “firearm” in accordance with the final rule titled “Definition of ‘Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms (Final Rule 2021R-05F), which became effective August 24, 2022. [More]

At least until they change the rules again.

Any questions?

New York, New York, It’s a Wonderful Town

At least 16 hurt in 9 shootings during bloody day in NYC: cops [More]

Ah, the original Bloomberg City! The one he and his fellow violence monopolists are bent on remaking the rest of the country in the image of…

How are those “sensitive zones” working out?
