Notes from the Resistance
More than 15K “red flag” gun seizures since 2020, but AP claims the law is “barely used” [More]
Speaking of “barely used,” how about the presumption of innocence until proven guilty?
And as long as we’re talking “woefully low” and “too small a pebble to make a ripple,” I wonder if anyone has compiled verifiable figures proving a documented number of saved lives attributable to “red flag” confiscations.

Portland street mob shoots at elderly driver, accidentally kills one of their own [More]
Being part of the greatest threat and all, with literally years of close Three Percenter and Oath Keepers tie-ins, you’d think I’d know at least one violent person like this…
I don’t get it. My guns haven’t killed anyone, either.

Former St. Louis City Board of Aldermen President Lewis Reed and former alderman Jeffrey Boyd plead guilty Friday in a political corruption scandal that shocked the city. [More]
Tell me the photo surprises anybody. I was going to try for two, but it looks like Boyd took his page down.

Parson calls recreational marijuana ballot question a “disaster” [More]
It will be if voters aren’t fully informed of ATF’s position. Will they be before the vote or will it be an unpublicized surprise that individuals will find out about one at a time?

According to court documents, an investigation determined Cunningham worked in a secondary employment role for Hudson Services, which provides security services for Spire, several times since June 1. Investigators documented 11 shifts, many of which began in the early morning hours, from June 1 to August 9 in which Cunningham worked for Hudson Services while in official capacity as a lieutenant. [More]
So could you say he was doing a doubletake?

Justice Department Lawyer Smears Religious Liberty Advocate as ‘Hate Group’ [More]
Taking their talking points from the left is hardly new.
When he says “If so, then it’s time we end our professional association,” I assume it creates the same sense of loss as when Chrissy Teigen whines she’s taking her talents elsewhere…

F-15 vs. AR-15? Bet on the Guys With the Guns [More]
Which, of course, is why they want to take them.
Tangentially related, I wonder if this is really true.
… Commonwealth Court Judge Patricia McCullough issued a preliminary injunction against the Pennsylvania State Police in Firearm Owners Against Crime – Institute for Legal, Legislative and Educational Action, et al. v. PSP Commissioner Evanchick, in relation to its non-compliance with 18 Pa.C.S. 6111.1, by failing to provide instantaneous or otherwise immediate responses to firearm background checks. [More]
Guy looks like more than his hat is too tight…
You gotta wonder what kind of monkey wrenches the state will try to throw into the works before September 12 and what kind of surprises they have planned for after…
“I have 4 daughters that play the game, 3 at the college level. We’ve always had that occasional idiot in the crowd, but never an atmosphere like this.” — Marvin Richardson, father of Duke volleyball player Rachel Richardson who was called racial slurs during a match at BYU [More]
So what, actually, was said? Be nice if there was– you know — evidence to back up the accusations. Which there apparently isn’t.
Kinda makes you wonder if ol’ Marvin is this fast and loose with dangerously prejudicial allegations in his capacity as a highly placed administration ATF mucky-muck — and why he wasn’t so identified by the CNN “Authorized Journalist.”

GRNC Alert: ‘Woke’ mob attacks youth group over gun raffle [More]
We’ve seen such hysteria before. And we’ve seen gun owner support make a big difference.
Contact methods for Venmo, PayPal, and the EHYFC Eagles are included in GRNC’s alert.
A celebration of life for Dave will be held Saturday, September 10, 2022, from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM at Shadow Mountain Mortuary, 2350 East Greenway Road, Phoenix, Az 85022. [More]

Here’s a tip: If you have some radical political views and an acquaintance reaches out, encourages you to act on your convictions, and maybe offers to introduce you to a guy who can sell you some bomb parts, don’t take him up on it. That guy’s almost definitely working for the feds. [More]
Amazing that some people need to be told. And those are the ones the enemy will use to smear those of us who don’t need to be.

The leader of the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation has been accused by former colleagues of stealing more than $10 million in donations from the organization for personal use, according to a lawsuit filed in court this week. [More]
Which side do I need to root for to not be called a racist? How about if I don’t root for either?
Oh, God, what do I do…?

“Let’s stop talking about our inability to respond to crime in the community. Let’s stop advertising to criminals that they’re going to get away with it,” Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler said, using an expletive at a City Council meeting this week after police Chief Chuck Lovell once more asked for more officers. [More]
Let’s start by talking about Ted Wheeler’s part in all this.
No? Instead blame guns?

Funny– all the leftist “violence against women” groups are silent on this. It’s almost like they have a different agenda than the one they say is their priority.
