A Nation of Snitches

A similar network still exists in present day Cuba and is known as the Committee for the Defense of the Revolution, with chapters on each block, charged with turning in their neighbors for such heinous crimes as buying rice and beans on the black market or selling a used washing machine without a government permit. How far away are we from this system in this country? [More]

Based on results…?

Willful Tyranny

He and many other dealers complain that ATF changed their definition of what constitutes a willful violation. The ATF now says that every gun dealer has been told to submit only proper paperwork, so any error – even clerical – constitutes a willful violation of ATF rules. [More]

There is no new thing under the sun.

The functionaries carrying this out must be pretty confident they’ll never be held personally accountable for their “willful violations.”

MIMO

Biden released an executive order aimed at regulating the artificial intelligence (AI) industry [yesterday], which includes a provision that AI must advance the goals of “civil rights” and “equity” — aka, the left’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) framework. [More]

Marxism in, Marxism out…

This Moron Again

David Hogg Now Blames “White Woman In Suburbs” For Gun Violence [More]

The world appears on the verge of extended up close and personal savagery and deprivation the likes of which we’ve never seen, and this self-important retarded weakling’s demand is for jackbooted thugs to disarm the type of man he knows he will never be.

The Way Things Are

But it was not normal. It was an anomaly, a glorious one, but an anomaly nonetheless. [More]

Word:

…I must ask where in history is any civilization guaranteed stasis? Has not despotism and mass destruction plagued every civilization that preceded ours? Is it not, in fact, still commonplace throughout the globe? By what suspension of reality, by what denial of the observable and the probable, by what art, device or magic are we sheltered few immune from catastrophe? Are we certain, from our brief and privileged vantage point, that such things will ever remain headline curiosities? Is it not just plain stupid to proclaim that our familiar way of life will forever be the norm, when everything that has gone before us shows we are, instead, the extremely lucky beneficiaries of a rare and fortunate convergence of circumstances; and one, by the way, that has only been preserved under force of arms?

And I loved the bit about the cat women.

The Immunity Syndrome

When Matthew sued the judge for these egregious violations of constitutional rights, Goldston argued that she could not be sued even if she had violated the Constitution by invoking judicial immunity. [More]

Making people you persecute believe they have no legal recourse seems like an invitation to try it another way.

Tell Me Again About ‘Gun Control’

Long before Hamas militants burst out of their Gaza stronghold to massacre scores of civilians with handguns and assault rifles, Iran and its allies had accelerated efforts to smuggle weapons into a different part of the Palestinian territories, the West Bank. [More]*

Something tells me closing the boyfriend loophole isn’t gonna cut it.

It’s almost like we have a Second Amendment for a reason…

I’m sure glad the gaslighters at Axios tell us that “open border” is a “myth”!

Because How Could Only Ones ‘Just Following Orders’ Go Wrong?

Snelling referred to bombshell reporting by the Chicago Sun-Times and others that found 27 current and former Chicago police officers appeared in a leaked roster for the Oath Keepers, an anti-government extremist group. According to the report, at least nine officers are still on the force. [More]

I set that report aside to write an article to refute the many damnable lies.

‘Didn’t State Who He Was’: Federal Drug Agents Seize Millions from Passengers at Atlanta Airport While Posing as Regular Travelers In Plainclothes In ‘Cold Consent Encounters’ [More]

There are armed gangs and there are authorized armed gangs.

Always Think Forfeiture!

You’d have to be a psychopath to do this to people for a living.

The Same Except They’re Different

The argument that commercially available, AR-type firearms are somehow less dangerous or lethal simply because they fire only in semi-automatic mode is misleading. They retain the identical performance capabilities and characteristics (save full-automatic capability) as initially intended for use in combat. [More]

Oh, is that all? Spread that lie under oath!

Also from the linked Exhibit:

As mentioned previously in this report, many of the firearms prohibited by the Ordinances directly trace their origins to those developed for use in combat. As such, these firearms were never initially intended for general distribution or sale to the public.

Except if we’re talking ARs, and of course he is, guess which one came first:

“Colt sent a pilot model rifle (serial no. GX4968) to the BATF for civilian sale approval on Oct. 23, 1963. It was approved on Dec. 10, 1963, and sales of the ‘Model R6000 Colt AR-15 SP1 Sporter Rifle’ began on Jan 2, 1964,” one critic of the article contended. “The M16 wasn’t issued to infantry units until 1965 (as the XM16E1), wasn’t standardized as the M16A1 until 1967, and didn’t officially replace the M14 until 1969.”

Tell me this Yurgealitis trough feeder isn’t cognizant of Founding intent and is incentivized by those who fear that and obscure it through gaslighting.

And tangentially related:

As predicted, they’re taking full advantage of Scalia’s critical error.

In re later “Bowie knives” edicts and the like, does anyone have a record of such laws ever being challenged on Second Amendment grounds and such bans being upheld and/or appealed to a higher court?

We Don’t Need No Education

Oregon again says students don’t need to prove mastery of reading, writing or math to graduate, citing harm to students of color [More]

That’s one way to make excuses for the subversive scam of teachers’ unions, where incompetence is a feature, not a bug. Create chaos and dependency through indoctrination and ignorance, and add in importing pathway-to-citizenship foreign nationals whose countries can somehow churn out employees with superior technical abilities on a pittance of what we spend per capita on students, and you have all the ingredients for control — of all kinds.

Not that our “single-issue gun rights leaders” dare notice…

We’re the Only Ones Fishing Enough

Like geofence warrants, keyword warrants cast a dragnet that require a provider to search its entire reserve of user data—in this case, queries by one billion Google users. Police generally have no identified suspects; instead, the sole basis for the warrant is the officer’s hunch that the suspect might have searched for something in some way related to the crime. [More]

Ah, the old Inspector Clouseau theory of policing…

So what happens if you use Duck Duck Go?

Adding Fuel to the Fire

New York AG Tells Platforms to Disclose What They Are Doing About “Calls for Violence and Other Materials That May Incite Violence” [More]

That seems like an excellent way to encourage responses to state actors initiating violence.

In Time of Need…

FEDERAL GUN CONFISCATION: Can President Biden Declare a WAR or EMERGENCY and TAKE YOUR GUNS? [Watch]

Precedent says “no,” but he could try…

How many he could get, whether they’d be dumb enough to attempt it, and what they’d do if met with defiance is another story.

That’s an interesting point about the gun exemption to Roosevelt’s requisitioning mandate based on 2A being an individual right. That’s something to throw back in the faces of antis claiming that recognition is a recent “gun lobby” fraud.
