Notes from the Resistance
High school student arrested after allegedly showing gun on school grounds… The teen is facing a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon, though more charges may follow… Police were unable to locate the gun [More]
What gun…?
The only way I can see charges sticking is if he’s dumb and scared enough not to keep his mouth shut, which I suspect they’ve built their case around.

North Andover man charged with illegal possession of guns, explosives… Medina is not allowed to possess firearms… [More]
There’s a truism to be admitted here.

Off-duty Atlanta police officer shot, killed while breaking into Douglas County home, deputies say [More]
So, he had mental health/narcotics issues and no one noticed, and they still unleashed him on the public?
On the plus side, they can now distance themselves by calling him a “former officer.”

Ms. Margaret Moore, a lead staffer in NIH’s FOIA office, allegedly taught NIAID officials how to “make emails disappear” [More]
Prest-O Change-O!
I wonder where she learned it from…

It’s time to ban guns from every polling place in America. [More]
Yeah, we see how intimidated everybody was by the guy with the rifle.

Not that feral violence in Baltimore will be impacted one bit…
I guess as long as they’re squandering money on this nonsense, it’s not being used DIRECTLY against us.
I’m just waiting for survivors of some shot up violence interrupter to get a deep pockets-savvy lawyer to go after the people who encouraged him to place himself in harm’s way and who “knew or should have known” the extreme risks.

Weeks before what many of us consider to be the most important election in American history, the Hudson Library and Historical Association is hosting “Brown University Constitutional Law Professor Corey Brettschneider” and “Host and Creator of PoliticsGirl Leigh McGowan, author of A Return to Common Sense: How to Fix America Before We Really Blow It.”
It’s pretty obvious from his Twitter feed that Corey is virulently against Trump and Vance, and McGowan’s IMDB bio says she “strongly opposes and dislikes the Republican party.”
How is hosting these and not giving equal time to speakers supportive of MAGA not tax-funded political bias?
And to those who are still giving him a pass and making excuses because it could be a losing issue, if that’s the case, he’ll lose anyway– he’s not shying away from abortion, and we’re talking similar constituencies. And naturally, Dems are already telling voters he’s an “extremist.” And “a homophobe.”
Dems even call moderates Nazis, so he’s got nothing to lose and gun owners — who don’t even know his name weeks before the election — to gain. Plus, he can’t erase his NRA grade– that his opponent isn’t exploiting that tells me she’s not anxious to see this can of worms opened either.
How people presume a politician afraid/ashamed will stand for them when the going really gets tough without any basis is beyond me. And it’s the guy on the inside who can hurt you the worst.
The late RNC Chair Lee Atwater is reputed to have asked about gun owners, “Who else are they going to vote for?” We’ve seen the results of wishful thinking, gutlessness, and betrayal. I’m not getting how keeping that door perpetually held open for all Republicans –like it has been in the years I’ve been calling them out on it –works to our advantage.
In for a penny in for a pound:
Four officers who responded to the Capitol attack have since died by suicide. [More]
Out of 140 “injured”? How seriously? Does that include the ones gassed by their own incompetent deployment? So, basically 3% couldn’t handle it? What did they think could happen on the job? Does that sound normal? Should we be giving these people guns?
Yet none of the 1, 265 protestors, including all the citizens who have been incarcerated and had their lives destroyed and are facing years in prison have felt so inclined?
Why does this feel like a total Democrat propaganda piece timed to sway gullible voters?
Oh, because it is?
Former Obama senior adviser David Axelrod argued that Vice President Kamala Harris voters will be clever enough to navigate voting in the wake of the devastation from Hurricane Helene, while saying that rural Trump voters will have a harder time getting to the polls. [More]
Underestimating the opposition is the province of fools. And it’s dangerous for all, because it can make a person try things they otherwise would not dare.

The question appears to be if they’ll be clever enough to navigate election interference.
And “botched” my… eye.

Why did Mickey Edwards endorse Kamala Harris? [More]
Why? Because he’s senile!
That and he’s always been an oath-breaking Vichycon:
I Was a Republican Congressman. I Had to Do Something About Gun Violence.
“A lifelong conservative,” eh, Oklahoman (part of the USA Today network/a Gannett Publication)? That’s an old trick where anyone with principles consistent with the Bill of Rights and limited government can be smeared as an “extremist.”
JD Vance’s acceptance of prohibitionist terms, his failure to correct egregious errors and outright lies, and his avoidance of elaborating to voters on why the right to keep and bear arms is the keystone of freedom, show that when it comes to effective advocacy, Republican politicians all too often come up short.

There were all kinds of missed opportunities, unnecessary concessions, and lies left unchallenged.

Supreme Court Will Hear Gun Industry Challenge to Mexico’s Lawsuit – “Simply put, Mexico’s suit threatens to undermine American sovereignty and constitutional liberty, and it has no business in this country’s courts.” [More]
I expect our side to win. What I’m most curious of is what the Democrat judges will do, and how they will rationalize their arguments if they side with Mexico.
Between SCOTUS now taking on both this and frames/receivers, how any gun owner can justify not voting and letting Kamala Harris reshape the Court is beyond me.
