Minnesota Supreme Court rules that even when a person is actively being attacked and at risk of death they cannot defend themselves and brandish a deadly weapon if it is “reasonably possible to retreat” [More]

Notes from the Resistance
UPDATE: Kyle Rittenhouse BACKTRACKS On Anti-Trump Comments [More]
That he is not a serious leader to be followed should be no surprise.
Neither, unfortunately, are the facts that he’s got a book out and over a million X followers.

Vice President Kamala Harris has made a decision on her running mate, with four people close to the process saying Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota is her choice. [More]
Demand his NRA questionnaire to see what he was willing to promise when he thought he needed gunvoters.
She must have figured out Kelly would have made her expendable.

“There can be no resolution to the issue of ‘gun violence’ or gun ownership in the twenty-first century if neither side incorporates the actual 2nd Amendment meaning, and its purpose, in their position,” [More]
“If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don’t have to worry about answers.” ― Thomas Pynchon, Gravity’s Rainbow

I’m getting my bump stock, which they’ve had since April 2019, back from ATF. [More]
And now the games begin. I just copied my attorney on my email to ATF asking why they haven’t responded yet to my July 25 inquiry on when I can retrieve my property.

What Snoop Dogg actually represents is toxic cultural pollution. [More]
Who better to be a prominent voice calling for your disarmament than our moral superior?
Sort of. Got a ton of stuff to do.
For much of my absence I was away from internet connection. I have a few articles that came out in my absence I was able to post to Twitter/Facebook, but not here, so I’ll post those announcements next,and maybe get to some other posts if I can finish an article first.
I also see over a hundred emails with news tips that came in over the past few days– I’m sorry, but I just won’t be able to get to them.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a more normal day.

Not really.
Gone relearning what “lazy” is all about.
There are still a few articles that haven’t been published yet I may post about here if I can figure out how to update this site with my phone. But aside from that I’ll be in pursuit of happiness/Blessings of Liberty mode.
Please hold off on correspondence and news tips until my return.

I don’t do this to subvert election chances or to get people mad at me. I do it because by viewing politicians with realistic expectations, gun owners will be in a better position to understand where, when and how they may disappoint us once we help them win power, and to insist the “gun rights leaders” endorsing them do everything they can to make sure it’s understood our rights are non-negotiable. [More]
I’m voting for Donald Trump and JD Vance. I want you to vote for Donald Trump and JD Vance. I just think we’ll all be better positioned for whatever happens after they win if we don’t vote for them blindly.

If Kelly is the pick, here’s hoping Republican opposition researchers investigate all his business dealings, and loudly. [More]
That, and how long will it take Kamala to realize certain powerful special interests will consider him a more effective fit for the top job?

“This raises the questions of why the shipment was delayed and why it was completed so soon after that was reported,” the request notes. [More]
Funny, how quickly the shipment was back on track once postal inspectors were told there was a “missing” AR-15 in their system…

I’ll be leaving on a trip in a few days, won’t be back for two weeks, and I need to focus on finishing some articles for AmmoLand and Firearms News instead of posting here.
I don’t want to see anybody wasting their time and efforts, so please hold off on correspondence and news tips.
I’ll be doing a few more article promotion posts here before I leave, but unless something extraordinary comes up (which I imagine you’ll know about before I do), I don’t expect to do more WoG updates until I return.
And to those who generally caution me when I say I’m going to be gone, no worries, the house is taken care of.

Just give them what they want? What if, after you bare your throat and cede all decision-making to remorseless reptiles, you find out what they want is you? [More]
Assume any POS evil, desperate, and deranged enough to threaten your life over a wallet is ready to kill you for no reason at all.
Yes, America helped the Russian and Chinese communists destroy a functional, Western nation known for being “more British than the British” The result was genocide. [More]
The same thing is happening here.
And here, if the Democrats have their way.

NAGR wins lawsuit against ATF trigger ban … The ATF may appeal this ruling, but precedent and momentum are both on our side, and we fully anticipate the absolute end of the ATF’s unlawful, unconstitutional ban on forced reset triggers. [More]
They’ll appeal because they have unlimited tax plunder to do it with and dragging things out and making plaintiffs spend their hard-won funds is part of the game.
NAGR is doing a good job of late, especially at refuting an old image.

The head of the U.S. House of Representatives Oversight Committee isn’t playing games when it comes to the White House avoiding answers to questions about potential collusion with antigun groups to target GLOCK, Inc., with a frivolous lawsuit. [More]
Is there a likelihood that anyone will go to jail?

Records show Sean Grayson, who shot and killed Sonya Massey, an unarmed Black woman, worked for several departments in just the last few years. [More]
Getting caught just proves that one “Aw, $h!+” erases all those “Attaboys!”
So what about the partner who let it happen without objection?
Ol’ Kenny Winslow certainly can weasel-word with the best of them.
