Notes from the Resistance
During late debate over budget reconciliation proposals, a coalition of Second Amendment organizations is demanding that short barreled rifles and shotguns, as well as sound suppressors be removed from regulation under the 1934 National Firearms Act. [More]
Good idea. Some questions:
“Representative LaMonica McIver assaulted, impeded, and interfered with law enforcement in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 111 (a)(1)”… [More]
So, if convicted, will Gunsense Candidate LaMonica now be a “prohibited person”? And now that she’s been indicted, will any guns she might own be impounded?

Teen engineering student dies after ‘intentional’ gunfire penetrates floor during party – Authorities investigating 20-year-old suspect who fired multiple rounds at Michigan residence where alcohol was a factor [More]
No. You don’t get to blame alcohol. There are no mitigating excuses.
I’ve checked multiple sources and haven’t seen any that identify the piece of crap who did this.
Why?
So, why not ask him what he told NRA to get them to mobilize their members on his behalf? [More]
Or to paraphrase Sir Wilfrid in Witness for the Prosecution, “The question is, Mr. Jolly, were you lying then, are you lying now, or are you not in fact a chronic and habitual LIAR?”

And they know a thing or two about reciprocal pushing!

So Ursula, get your gun and make sure that everyone else gets theirs too. [More]
That’s the thing– when it comes to the people, she won’t, so by the time they’re forced to hand them out it’ll be too late.
This article is light on that, but the bottom line is, tech and drones notwithstanding, the men on the ground with rifles will be the ones controlling it.

In a May 16, 2025, article, NBC News claimed, “Machine guns have been illegal in the United States since 1986.” [More]
Did they blow one up for effect?

Thom Tillis Wants You To Forget His Role In Tanking Ed Martin’s D.C. Attorney Nomination [More]
Well, as long as everybody thinks of him as The Weasel Whisperer, I guess the specifics of why don’t really matter.
[Via bondmen]
In exchange for his repayment of the $3,500 that was stolen, the felony theft charges have been dismissed. [More]
So hes not a prohibited person now, like you or I would be if we ever sank so low?
Abusing a position of special public trust like that actually deserves more punishment than an ordinary person would get. Along with a good flogging.

5 deputies and officers sent to hospital after sheriff’s office says man intentionally blew up home… Because of Borja’s criminal history, the sheriff’s office also responded in a supporting role. [More]
Tell us more about that criminal history, and what the guy was doing out.
I’m sorry, I watched the video with the newschick with a nose ring and kind of lost track of everything else… Look, I’m old and never watch TV news, so I gotta ask: When did this become an acceptable professional standard?
I also don’t like to see cops with sleeve tats, so you’ll just need to forgive my intolerant social obsolescence.

DAVID MARCUS: Old Man Biden’s autopen pardons should be null and void [More]
So should the laws, orders, and appointments he signed.
A thought strikes seeing he is now apparently dying from advanced prostate cancer: if it’s treatable early on, why wasn’t it? My conspiracy theory is his handlers wanted him to win a second term and then die when his usefulness devolved into a liability, putting the controllable Kamala nominally “in charge” and having a hand-picked reliever warming up in the bullpen.
If I controlled the law enforcement investigation apparatus in this country, I’d quietly have some people looking into who knew what medical information and when they knew it.

Claremont McKenna’s Muslim Student Association had criticized the college’s choice of Rushdie in a May 2 statement, calling it “disrespectful” and out of line with the college’s commitment to inclusion. [More]
And nothing says inclusion like issuing ideological fatwas.
So much for “an open and welcoming space for everyone“…
Ah well, “misdirecting” on that is supported by history, text, and tradition… and I’m sure the word “rigorous” appplies to all those friendly faces.

“We don’t believe the bear did it,” said Ann Bryant, executive director of the Bear League in the Tahoe Basin. “And I will go on record as saying that. … We’ve never had a bear kill anybody.” [More]
Although I’ll stipulate that animaladjusted environmentalcase disinformation is probably more deadly.
