Like the Scorpion Told the Frog…
Why is Wired effectively providing a how-to guide on building a copycat weapon, especially when it’s being served up to Luigi Mangione’s fanbase of unhinged Marxist leftists? [More]
Probably for the same reason the witch told the flying monkeys to go and destroy…
You have to understand that Wired is owned by the same nepobillionaire who owns Teen Anal Sex Vogue, and as for YouTube making an exception to their rule, well, look who owns them.
They think they’ll forever be unaccountable, and that what they are abetting to bring about will always find them useful.

It Can Never Happen Here?
“Lol you probably would have to actually genocide white people to make this a normal country,” Rodriguez wrote in one message, according to Klippenstein. “Like even a very targeted and selective rehabilitation program would probably have to lead to the lifetime imprisonments of tens of millions of white people.” [More]
Obviously we’re the Nazis…
Anybody think I wasn’t dead serious?
These domestic enemies exist. They want us disarmed. They want us dead.
Ironically, ultimately we’re what keeps useful idiots enabling them from the lime pits.

We’re the Only Ones Secure Enough

That Explains It
From Rep. Paul Gosar to a constituent via email:
Reconciliation is a procedure under the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, where Congress implements budget resolution policies that are required to be related to permanent spending and revenue programs. Additionally, the Byrd rule, which was incorporated into the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, prohibits provisions that are “extraneous to the purpose of implementing budget resolution policies.” Consequently, provisions in a reconciliation bill cannot include policy changes that do not affect the budget or spending programs.
Consequently, this is why the full versions of the SHORT and Hearing Protection Act were not included in the bill, as the portions that affect non-tax provisions of the National Firearms Act (NFA) violate the Byrd rule.
Per the recipient:
“Now the only thing I need to figure out is how they managed to pass a bill out of the House that removed both the tax AND the registration. If you have any news on that, it sure would be worth a blog post.”
I don’t. How about you? And why not do the same with SBRs?
Asked and Answered
Let’s say Harris had won and the next day signed an executive order banning all guns. How many cops do you think would follow their oath? [More]
Oath Keepers had to be destroyed by those in power. And they had to make sure everyone believed that was for our own good.

Zoning Out
Common Cause
Herschel springboards off my latest “common use” article and gives his own insights. [More]
I’m also interested in the guy in comments who felt the need to qualify his admission that I’m “absolutley correct here” by saying he “often disagrees with” me. Really? How? On what? Is it just from what he infers or can he prove something I said is wrong?
And There Was War in Heaven
The Dems Declare War on the Obama Boys [More]
Add in Hogg’s Children’s Crusade and it’s like Party Elders are getting the Biden treatment.
As fun as it is to watch them apparently implode, never underestimate the focused stupidity of Democrat voters and the Republican preponderance for blowing all advantages. Act like we’re going to lose the midterms, because we may.

Oregon gun prohibitionists are making sure gun owners don’t have time to react. And Oregon Republicans are wavering between useless and in bed with the grabbers.

Chinese Coil Gun Could Prove Fatal Flaw in ‘Common Use’ Argument
Since no innovation ever begins “in common use,” a government with the power to do so can ban all new weapon developments from those they would rule, retaining them exclusively for itself. [More]
Sorry, you can’t have one. Hey, it’s your “gun rights leaders” who embraced the “in common use” litmus test we’re using to deny you.
A Modest Proposal
The NFA is constitutional because it’s “a modest burden” and not a ban [More]
The Second Amendment does not say “shall not be banned.” It says “shall not be infringed.” Even modestly.
Unless you’re one of the “smartest people in the room” who buy into the Trump/Bondi DOJ is playing super secret 3D chess with court rules that they can’t tell us about, and it will all work out in the end, honest…
Then ask why they’re not pushing SBRs.
