Calculated Failure

How the 9th Circuit Misfires on the 2nd Amendment [More]

That’s presuming they’re just wrong instead of evil.

Grover promotes that kind of $#!+ to wheedle donations from thick-headed “moderates.”

And no, I don’t know how you can read the whole article without signing up. I figure if it’s anything like the title, I’ve seen enough.

Lest Ye Be Judged

Obama Judge Says to Hell with the Supreme Court, Orders Trump DOJ to Turn Over Docs Related to Decision to Revoke ‘Protected Status’ for Hundreds of Thousands of Migrants [More]

Millions of Democrat cultists are fine with inferior courts imposing their subversion on the rest of the Republic, and they have enough representation to block a fix by Congress. At some point, Trump will need to exercise executive prerogative.

If Only They’d Disarm You and Me…

Teens hung out in a room with a gun. Now a Maryland father mourns. [More]

How many Maryland “gun law” violations can you count?

And there’s the obligatory Kris Brown quote, claiming “guns are ‘the number one killer’ of children and teens…”

It’s almost like “real reporter” Jasmine Hilton writes editorials instead of news…

The Name of the Game

As Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Joe Biden was intimately involved in the subsequent investigation. A few months after the investigation was triggered, Barack Obama announced Joe Biden would be the Vice-Presidential nominee. Does that answer your question? [More]

It’s not the blackmail, it’s that so many can be extorted with it.

Great Expectations

‘This time, it’s not a cover-up’: FBI director Kash Patel promises ‘truckloads’ of files will be made public, says ‘give us a week’… Patel said the material relates to both the Trump-Russia investigation, known as Crossfire Hurricane, and the January 6 Capitol breach. According to Patel, the documents will be made public within two weeks, promising what he called “a wave of transparency.” [More]

We’ve been promised Krakens before, so you’ll forgive me if I want to, you know, actually see one this time.

Superiority Complex

MA Superior Court Declares “Suitability” & “Discretionary” Licensing Constitutional [More]

Actually, the Constitution considers it an “inferior court,” and the Supreme Court’s “text, history, and tradition” standard says it’s not.

An Old Playbook

“With that done, power can rewrite history with grotesque false narratives. They can make criminals heroes and heroes criminals. Power can change the definition of the words we use to describe reality. Diversity is now described as illegal. Equity is to be shunned. Inclusion is a dirty word. This is an old playbook, my friends. There’s nothing new in this.” [More]

He’s right. It is an old playbook.

A Democrat playbook.

And there’s nothing new about breathless Scott Pelley hyperbole.

Bullet Points

The proposed regulation raises the fee for a SAEC and COE Verification check from $1.00 to $5.00…The rulemaking is complete. On May 12, 2025, the Office of Administrative Law approved the regulations and filed them with the Secretary of State. The regulations become effective on July 1, 2025. [More]

They do it because they can.

Guess who won’t pay.

Let the Punishment Fit the Crime

“Bomb threats, for example, could lead to suspension or expulsion,” reports Nicole Asbury in the Washington Post. “Previously, the district’s student code of conduct said such threats could trigger the lowest level of response or penalty, such as a detention or other teacher-led intervention.” [More]

Hey, gotta prepare ’em for the real world…

Just Between Us Girls

There’s a new trend in gun ownership — more women are taking up firearms, not only for sport, but also for self-defense. According to Gallup, gun ownership among women rose from 15 percent in 2007 to 2012, to 20 percent in 2019 to 2024. [More]

Now watch NSSF gush!

As long as we’re sourcing Gallup:

An Age-Old Question

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging Connecticut’s ban on adults under the age of 21 from purchasing, owning or carrying handguns. [More]

Good– it makes a key undeniable point:

Over 200 colonial and Founding-era militia statutes throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries not only permitted, but affirmatively mandated that persons aged eighteen to twenty acquire and keep arms.

No 2A lawsuit should be without it.
