In the Kapu Tradition

Requires businesses or restaurants open to the public to post a color-coded placard indicating whether the business or restaurant allows firearms or large knives to be brought onto the premises. By January 1, 2027, requires the Department of Law Enforcement to provide businesses and restaurants with free and easily downloadable placards. Effective 1/1/2027. [More]

From this un-American who presents himself as the opposite… Hey, if he can exploit copyrighted characters for political campaigning, does that constitute a reportable in-kind contribution?

Babylon Bee Defeats Hawaii Law That Forbids Political Satire [More]

I guess if you can ignore the Second Amendment with no personal cost, why would you be worried about subverting the First?

To paraphrase Rhett Butler, Hawaii Democrats deserve to be ridiculed, and often, and by someone who knows how.

We’re the Only Ones Meanwhile Across the Pond Enough

One of many lessons from our hearings today. In many cases, the police were complicit in these rapes. I do not say that lightly. The lack of any desire to investigate these men is criminal. It happened again and again and again. And yes. It’s mainly because the rapists were Muslims. [More]

You gotta wonder at what point — if any — normal men will hoist the black flag.

Not there, they’re cooked. Here.

As long as bellies are still full and there’s something to lose all we’ll hear are grumblings. Let the supply system break and things will happen fast.

Updated Illustrated Enfield Book as Matchless as the Rifle

“‘The Matchless Enfield’ tells the story of the No. 4 sniper rifle and how it was developed and used,”… [More]

Every once in a while I break with tradition and actually talk about guns…

Sinking to New Mean-Spirited Depths

Angry hard core MAGA types attacking Massie and making $#!+ up show how ugly they are and do more damage to their cause and than they know. I voted for Trump three times myself because the alternative was unthinkable, but with eyes wide open on his record and contradictions.

A word about loyalty to the leader as opposed to the Constitution– it’s not a good look for a party that has a tough enough time refuting “Nazi” charges.”

And Gallrein talked a good game on 2A but did not answer all of the questions.

The Hidden Cost

In a significant development for Second Amendment litigation, the United States Department of Justice has filed an amicus curiae brief with the First Circuit Court of Appeals, supporting Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) in its ongoing challenge to Massachusetts’s controversial handgun regulations. The case, Granata v. Campbell, targets the state’s “Approved Firearms Roster” and Attorney General’s handgun sales regulations, which plaintiffs argue unconstitutionally ban the commercial sale of handguns that are in common use nationwide. [More]

So.. they basically shored up the trap…?

Genius In, Genocide Out

[Generated with Insmind.com]

AI detectors are in the spotlight again after one of them flagged the 1776 Declaration of Independence as 99.99% AI written. [More]

I’m reminded of another article I meant to comment on, where Shyam Sankar talks a slick game but goes real light on “How?” I read “Palantir” and Skynet comes to mind.

Billionaires like Elon promising us a guaranteed income are whistling past the graveyard of history. A purposeless welfare state of surfeit hardly seems like a viable plan, and actually comes across more like mass suicide and blasphemy.

Trust the Technology?

CPSC evaluated these safes and found that the biometric programming feature can fail without consumers realizing that the safe’s contents, including firearms, can be accessed by unauthorized users, including children. [More]

And if the key gets lost, with Stack-On you can always use a crowbar…

Hey, expanding things a bit, does Biofire, endorsed by all those experts including NRA and NSSF, come with a key– just in case? And if “fingerprint and 3D facial recognition systems … verify your identity in any situation,” does that mean vindictive Democrat prosecutors can subpoena the data and use it against you?

Judging Jeanine

“You bring a gun into the district, you mark my words, you’re going to jail,” Pirro said in the interview. “I don’t care if you have a license in another district, and I don’t care if you’re a law-abiding gun owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this district, count on going to jail and hope you get the gun back.” [More]

Rocky Mountain Low

A new bill introduced in Colorado would require gun barrel purchases to be made in-person at a firearm dealer. Senate Bill 26-043, which was introduced last week, would also ban the possession of any firearm barrels “with the intent to sell or transfer” and add criminal penalties for violation… Sullivan and Froelich are also sponsoring Senate Bill 26-004, which would expand the state’s “Red Flag” law by adding a list of “institutional petitioners” that could petition a court for an Extreme Risk Protection Order.

Curiously, none of these people will appear at your door.

But it’s a panel, and we don’t know if it’s over or what DOJ will do, so Mr. Wolf has a caution (NSFW).

As long as everybody ignores the law, we’re gonna continue to have problems.

Breaking the Bank

JPMorgan Chase recently announced the banking giant’s policy of denying services to manufacturers of Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs) is over. That’s a welcome reversal of policy after NSSF met with JPMorgan Chase officials to work to end the discriminatory policy. It is also the most recent of the big banks, including Bank of America and Citigroup that have shifted banking service policies that previously froze out members of the firearm industry. [More]

About damn time for all of them, and Morgan has been particularly offensive.

Now, what about “Merchant Category Codes“?

Hey, when the house of cards collapses, who’s in for more “too big to fail” bailouts?

And not to put too fine a point to it, but MSR seems counterproductive to me.

Science Friction

…sadly, Truffaut’s picture might qualify as horror nowadays since it appears the United States has arrived at the fascist destination Bradbury warned us about. [More]

The books Bradbury championed were classics of literature and they were actually banned in his novel. There’s a big difference between that and taxpayers objecting to funding the distribution of grooming porn in publicly-financed schools and libraries. And if you’re still intent on teaching your 12-year-old how to blow other boys, we’ll always have Amazon.

Not much noise from these characters when they act just like the Farenheit 451 firemen:

Parent Marie Rothstein-Williams made a formal complaint to the school board last month, arguing that the books offended her biracial son.

And speaking ot woke science fiction, this @$$hole needs to go back to driving a Johnny Cab. His entire AI character is absurd unless you believe software would still be relevant 900 years after installed, and his real life persona is even more so unless you believe thinking that sanctimoniously preachy writing and acting sucks makes someone a racist.

Case in point:

Hey, as long as we’re talking about banning printed information

Convenience for Whom?

The man remained silent when asked if he thought it was legal to deny service to federal agents based on their role, while the employee could be heard saying, “If it is [illegal] I personally don’t care.” Fox News Digital reached out to Speedway and its parent company, 7-Eleven, for a response. [More]

This:

Seeing a how Speedway and parent 7-Eleven both prevent employees from being armed, and since when seconds count police are minutes away, the only chance they have to be defended is if in a state where an armed customer can intervene. Since most non-criminal gun carriers support deporting foreign criminals, way to destroy any incentive they have to even be there to consider it.

Be a shame if this station were attacked by an illegal alien…

No word from corporate at this point is unacceptable.

Funny, how the whole shebang is owned by the Japanese, a country existentially dependent on U.S. goodwill. They don’t put up with this takeover by illegal foreigners and traitors nonsense, even though the privileged sheltered ingrates who can afford Lady Gaga concerts suicidally approve

The Tip of the Iceberg

President Donald Trump said on Monday that Republicans would never win another election if illegal aliens brought in during the Biden administration are not removed from the United States…”These people were brought to this country to vote, and they vote illegally,” Trump told Bongino. [More]

You don’t say.

We should be more worried about the ones slated to vote “legally,” except the “gun rights groups” don’t want Democrats to call them haters.

Who ARE Those Guys?

The saga of NRA v. NRA Foundation does not seem to be settling down. A new website has been published and it alleges to share so-called “facts” on the conflict… The issue with the website is that its authenticity cannot be verified. [More]

Or as Butch Cassidy asked:
