Emulate at Your Own Risk
Now that the high likelihood of Federal malicious prosecution is over, I’m going to start posting info on the Texas/Mexico Border, and what locals did to LAWFULLY protect our homes, families, neighbors, property, and livelihoods. [More]
And making them pose with political signs isn’t an open invitation for malicious civil prosecution…? “ASKED” is this guy’s word. Someone who is under the physical control of another isn’t likely to believe they have options. Especially after being TOLD to remove their shoes, which goes far beyond any presumed “citizen’s arrest” powers…
Y’all better hope MALDEF doesn’t decide to make some examples and those “cooperative” LEs aren’t subpoenaed as witnesses.

Gov. Jared Polis said Thursday night that a ban on the manufacture and sale of semiautomatic firearms with a removable ammunition magazine isn’t his preferred method of tackling gun violence, but he’s not fundamentally opposed to the idea. [More]
That’s a Democrat’s idea of “compromising” on guns.

Original Intent
There is a case now being litigated in front of the United States Supreme Court brought by the same lawyers and organization that represented none other than Michael Cargill in the Cargill case dealing with the bumpstock, a big victory for the2 Second Amendment over the ATF there, but this case involves the Sixth Amendment right to a jury trial but it’s just as important to win as many other cases involving the Supreme Court and the Constitution [Watch]
If we start applying the unambiguous language understood by the Founders the house of cards will collapse, and that scares the hell out of the controllers.

I still don’t see a Presidential Action…
The Bradys are hyperventilating. And Everytown is proposing an unofficial shadow office of sorts.
Wake me when Trump establishes an Office of Second Amendment Protection:
If Biden could appoint Kamala Harris to lend authority to his venture, Trump could assign the duties to Vice President JD Vance. Gun rights leaders and legal scholars could be identified and nominated to analyze and prioritize bills, lawsuits, regulations, opportunities, and threats, to advise on judicial and other federal nominees, and to help educate the public. The Office would provide a way for the public to express their concerns and to offer ideas and suggestions, meaning gun owners would have a conduit.

Hostages to Be Released
President Donald Trump has pardoned, commuted the prison sentences or vowed to dismiss the cases of all of the 1,500-plus people charged with crimes in the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riot, including people convicted of assaulting police officers…[More]
As Stewart Rhodes recalls, when advocating the same:
Most of the men I met were, as President Trump said, coerced into accepting a guilty plea “bargain” to avoid decades in prison. Others had a Soviet-style show trial in DC, where, of course, they were found “guilty” after being denied the right to even argue self-defense or defense of others (imagine if Daniel Penny had been precluded from making that argument in his trial). They weren’t allowed to show the jury video of police using excessive force just seconds before their own actions. The prosecution cut that out of the video, and the defense couldn’t even discuss it.
In the meantime, their lives have been upended and their livelihoods destroyed, some beyond repair. Many questions will unfold. For now, this is a major victory and a major indicator of hope for this administration.
Let’s hope that extends to 2A, because I was concerned he didn’t mention it once during his speech and it doesn’t appear under “Issues” on his new White House website.

Biden Pardoned Domestic Enemies and All I Got Was This Lousy Shirt
From WarOnGuns Correspondent Steve T via email:
I had to dig around because I couldn’t remember the wording on the original Gunwalker t-shirts. Looks like we need a new one.
“Am I the only person on the planet that didn’t get a pardon from Joe Biden?”
For those who weren’t around back then, this is what he’s referring to.
I could always use another shirt:
