Eighth Circuit sympathetic to former Iowa police chief convicted of buying machine guns [More]
I agree he shouldn’t have been charged, but I’m hardly sympathetic.
Doesn’t matter. Three-judge panel. This won’t be the end of it.

No Country for Old Men
The entire State of Missouri can rest much easier now. The ATF has made the Show-Me State a much safer place. Two rule breakers from small Missouri towns were indicted by a federal grand jury last week. Their crimes? They’re accused of selling guns without a federal license. Their ages? One was 75 and the other was 81 years old. [More]
As long as infringements are enforced, it’s no country for citizens of any age.
So much for the “Second Amendment Task Force“…

The comment restriction is one way cowardly liars can keep from being ratioed.
Naturally, they left out all of what he said. And that the FSU maniac who exploited a “gun-free zone” got the gun from his cop mom.

Veterans advocating for gun safety push for assault weapon ban in Hawaii [More]
Lie much, Captain Chris Marvin? And once again we see the false authority logical fallacy, as if your military experience qualifies you to second-guess the Founders. Besides, the militia needs “weapons of war.” If you weren’t an oath-breaker, you’d be demanding full-auto.
And what’s with throwing unserialized firearms under the bus as your “rebuttal,” Tom Tomimbang of 808 Gun Club?

Sifting Through the Rubble
Well, good old Ashcroft was at the heart of a high profile cover-up: the Oklahoma City bombing, according to attorney Jesse Trentadue. The following comes from a court filing provided to ZeroHedge by Trentadue, attorney to OKC bombing accomplice Terry Nichols. [More]
Yesterday was also another anniversary.
Mike Vanderboegh was hot on that trail. The ghouls at SPLC wanted to dig up nonexistent posthumous dirt on him for it.
And it doesn’t surprise me about that phony, Ashcroft.

Supreme Court Watch
We’re awaiting word on Snope/Ocean State tactical, and if SCOTUS is going to make a decisoin or once more kick the can down the road. Meanwhile, here are some sobering thoughts:
This is especially frustrating to watch after feeling like I’m the lone voice in the wilderness warning that relying solely on “self defense” while ignoring the militia aspect makes 2A more vulnerable to infringements, and how putting all faith in the “in common use at the time” argument can be a trap.

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Responding Enough
Point/Counterpoint
We’re the Only Ones Only Enough
As Missouri Republicans push a new version of the Second Amendment Preservation Act through the legislature, law enforcement officials in the state say lawmakers and supporters of the bill are ignoring their concerns…“I think it’s anti-law enforcement,” said Ellisville Police Chief Steve Lewis. “It’s bad legislation for law enforcement in that we believe it restricts law enforcement’s ability to assist federal task force partners with the seizure of weapons from bad people.” [More]
Back the Oathbreakers? Whatever, Porky.
