NY Times columnist admits he was ‘wrong’ about Trump’s supporters, says Russian collusion story was a ‘hoax’ [More]

They say California is often first in things. Let’s see if this spreads.
“This epidemic is costing our nation $557 billion annually,” says Sarah Burd-Sharps, research director at the gun control advocacy group. “Looking at the economic consequence offers a wider lens for understanding just how extensive — and expensive — this crisis is.” [More]
Oh, heck, it costs a lot more than that if you add how the overwhelming majority of perps have been subsidized parasites to predators from cradle to grave.
Funny though– they never seem to want to factor in benefits accrued through lives saved by defensive gun uses…

Dianne Feinstein tells WarOnGuns Correspondent 1Gat and the rest of us to go **** ourselves in the most polite way possible. [More]
Sending prewritten letters to some is just a waste of activist time and if this happens enough times their understandable response will be “Why bother?”
House Passes Bill Declaring Right to Contraception [More]
So rights come from government?
Does anybody see any delegated authority to any branch of government to insert itself in this?
And do these people read their own website?
This is why the Federalists thought a Bill of Rights was “dangerous and unnecessary.”

In an attempt to subvert the Supreme Court’s clear directions in the Bruen decision, California’s gun grabbing Democrats have actually made their case weaker through their own arguments. [More]

Whip-wielding Florida woman, 56, arrested for STABBING minivan with a pitchfork [More]
The thought strikes that one way to show the ludicrousness of the term “assault weapon” would be to observe that if the same “logic” were applied to this as is applied to guns, the tool in the hands of an “Only One” would magically transform into a “patrol pitchfork.”
And don’t get me started on “Modern Sporting Rifles,” a term I have always found irritatingly appeasing.

“Apart from his intent to only perhaps just get the bad guys, a shotgun doesn’t have a brain. It’s going to fire when it’s triggered. [More]
So they admit blaming guns is wrong?
And as for firing a shotgun and having no brain…

“So, to clarify, Mr. Chairman, you’re saying it is the point of the bill to ban weapons that are in common use in the United States today,” the Republican representative pressed.
“Yes,” Nadler clarified. “The problem is that they’re in common use.” [More]
The response will be no laughing matter.

“My friend from Texas, Mr. Roy, advances the so-called insurrectionist view of the second amendment, that the second amendment’s purpose is to give the people the right to overthrow or fight our government or fight the police or threaten armed resistance if the government is somehow being unfair or unjust,” Raskin said. “This reading is totally and absolutely absurd and flies in the face of the place text of the constitution.” [More]
Don’t tell us. Tell Alexander Hamilton:
If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government…
That and he’s not your friend, buddy…
We’re coming up on the end of the week and I haven’t even gotten to news tips sent in yesterday morning yet. Sorry, but the article work that lets me do all this has to come first, and I’ve been up to my neck in that, with a pending article on Merchant Category Codes for Firearms News and the “Active Shooter” Alert bill for AmmoLand.
I’ll get to what I can but chances are I won’t get to most.
Thanks for understanding.

Missouri sheriff says even under ‘threat of arrest’ he will not release gun owners’ info to FBI – ‘I will go down with the ship if need be,’ the sheriff says [More]
I’m sorry, but while everybody’s waving flags, my first thought is “What’s he doing with that information in the first place?”

Bottom line is that in order for the Republican Party to attract more minority voters, Republicans need to do a much better job going into minority communities and educating these voters about what is actually going on in the country and what it means to them. [More]
I guess.
I always thought that just like providing for yourself, a responsibility of citizenship was to inform yourself, including determining which voices best comported with reality. Somebody comes along and wants to “give” you something, especially information, it pays to find out what’s in it for them.

GOA AND GOF SUE NEW YORK OVER NEW CONCEALED CARRY RESTRICTIONS [More]
A right delayed… and until they’re stopped, they’ll keep inventing new ways to deny and continue kicking the can down the road to nowhere.
This is what preemptive surrender Republicans don’t get. Democrats fight every inch of the way. They don’t give, they take. And then come back for more.
SCHIFF BILL TO REPEAL GUN INDUSTRY LIABILITY SHIELD PASSED OUT OF COMMITTEE [More]
It’s instructive to see that the goal really is total disarmament, but the creepy punk is just whoring for headlines here and knows this isn’t going anywhere:

Figures he and his fellow seditious conspirators put the term “Equal Access” in the title of a bill designed to make guns too expensive for “those people.”
Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz told Newsmax on Tuesday that the Jan. 6 committee ”does not want the public to hear the other side” of the narrative it is presenting in prime time. “That’s why it didn’t permit any cross-examination, any confrontation, any due process, anything resembling fairness”… [More]
Which is why none of them are interested in publicly questioning why Michael Byrd was given a pass for executing Ashli Babbitt when we all know how this country would have erupted in flames had a white officer shot an unarmed black woman and then been “exonerated” in a behind-the-scenes CYA session.
“Republican” Liz Cheney wants it that way.

Here is a truism, a law of nature, really: Potential predator aggressors perceiving a weaker deterrence are less deterred. That increases the risks of putting those doing the deterring in harm’s way.
So to those on Twitter praising the courage this took, these two won’t be the ones taking fire.
