I don’t know what it’s going to take to get all “gun rights leaders” and most of their followers to get their heads out of their @$$e$ with their delusional “single issue” bull$h!+ and start factoring how cheap labor Republicans vote on this into their ratings.

Trouble in Paradise
U.S. citizen killed by gunfire in Turks and Caicos Islands [More]
Leader of Arlington County NAACP killed in shooting while on vacation in Turks and Caicos
And he was targeted…which invites the question: “Why?”
I don’t get it. They have licensing and registration and everything…

What the Richmond Heights ordinance does is require a violator’s gun to be forfeited. [More]
Forfeiture law trumps preemption. So the city says it can take your gun if you’ve had a few drinks in your own home.
An ‘Unarmed Man’
Man accused of killing another man with one punch at gas station [More]
The threat warrants an armed response to either keep violence from happening in the first place or put an end to it if it does, you know…
No matter what Real Man says…

In other words, he’s trying to sow discord to divide and conquer by embarrassing and coercing them into surrendering industry data…?

5 Years After Las Vegas Concert Shooting, an FBI Whistleblower Reveals Probable Motive [More]
Anything’s possible. I’ve also heard about a Saudi prince.
About the only thing that seems impossible is getting the FBI to be forthcoming with what it really knows. I wish I could believe Republicans winning big in November would change that.

US Army Misses Recruiting Goal by 25% [More]
That’s what you get when you condition an entire generation that identifying as “exempt” is something to embrace.
That and irresponsible parenting and “social safety nets” mean a good number don’t have to work.
Enemies foreign and domestic are encouraged.

Freeman said the insurance requirement was analogous to some 19th-century laws requiring gun owners to post bond in order to carry a gun. [More]
Ah yes, Licky Liccardo’s law…
The antis will try to use Bruen’s “historical understanding” to justify every disarmament edict they can think up. Let unsaid with that approach:
Were those edicts ever challenged on Second Amendment grounds? Because what they won’t find is the Supreme Court upholding such “laws.”

The two deputies fired at Williams, hitting her two times. However, she was not the only one injured by the gunfire … six shots were fired and that the shot that hit Lane came from a fellow deputy that went through an exterior wall. [More]
