Notes from the Resistance
The Supreme Court May Kick Off 2023 With a Huge Gun Rights Ruling – Without oral argument or full briefing, the case could take a hatchet to New York’s new concealed carry law—and countless more nationwide. [More]
So why does Mark Joseph Stern have his panties in a wad?
Franklin Armory and the Firearms Regulatory Accountability Coalition, Inc. (FRAC) have filed a lawsuit against U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) over what the plaintiffs allege are wrongful classification of firearms and regulatory delays. [More]
That presupposes there are rightful classifications and acceptable review times.

A federal lawsuit supported by the Second Amendment Foundation and Firearms Policy Coalition has been filed in New York, challenging that state’s ban on so-called “assault weapons.” [More]
I’ve been arguing not to forget “core purpose” in 2A actions, so I find this a good add:
The firearms at issue in this case are the sorts of bearable arms in common use for lawful purposes that law-abiding people possess at home by the millions. And they are, moreover, exactly what they would bring to service in militia duty, should such be necessary.
Know that CNN will consider Kinzinger one of their “conservative” contributors, just like the Washington Post keeps on staff “conservative” columnists Jennifer Rubin and Max Boot. [More]
Gee, that was certainly difficult to foresee.

The 2nd Amendment is a curse [More]
So is the First sometimes, when being abused by the DSM.
It looks like there’s more to it than two paragraphs, but since I know where this is going I see no need to register to endure more lying subversion from impotent cultist punks who tolerate no apostasy.

NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, condemned the U.S. Senate’s confirmation of Martin J. Gruenberg as Chair and Member of the Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Gruenberg led the FDIC from 2011-2018, during which the Obama administration conducted the illegal Operation Choke Point scheme to deny banking services to firearm businesses. NSSF opposed his confirmation in the strongest terms as he has already demonstrated a lack of respect for the law and unparalleled disdain for the Constitutionally-protected firearm and ammunition industry.

Confirmed by voice vote to protect the Vichycons from accountability. Any gun owner familiar with the Hughes Amendment knows the type of treason that allows the self-serving tyrannical bastards to get away with.
See any Senate Republicans demanding to end that practice and record all votes?
Received via email from Tully Rinckey PLLC:
After careful consideration and over a year after it was implemented, the Department of Defense has decided to no longer enforce the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for service members. Despite the fact that less than 100 service members died from COVID-19 since the pandemic started, many active duty, Guard and Reserve members who refused the COVID-19 vaccine faced removal from the service. This impacted military readiness and those who faced removal now need to understand their rights and how they can legally proceed with the reinstatement process. [More]
Or in the words of Emily Litella:
I guess that’s one less concern for gun-owning servicemembers to worry about, but the questions that remain are “Why the sudden big turnaround?” and “Why haven’t there been screaming headlines and demands for answers?”
The removal of Denise George comes just days after she filed a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase in New York and accused the company of helping Epstein finance the illegal exploitation of women and children in the U.S. Virgin Islands and beyond. Gov. Albert Bryan Jr. did not provide a reason for relieving George of her duties… [More]
You mean the Democrat governor…?
I don’t suppose powerful connections have anything to do with it…
It’s confusing, though, if JP Morgan really did profit from Epstein’s escapades, why did it reportedly take such a blue-nosed approach during Operation Chokepoint and try to … uh … stiff porn stars? [More]
Not all perversions are sexual.

Remember this picture the next time some lying grabber says the diktat he’s pushing will stop criminals from getting guns.
Read Second Amendment Literally: Ban Making and Selling Guns [More]
I know ad hominem attacks are a logical fallacy, but the stunning ignorance on display here, beginning with the presumption that the Bill of Rights defines what citizens “may” do, makes it OK to dismiss this writer and those oxymoronic “true liberals” swallowing his pseudointellectual bilge as fools.
It’s certainly not worth anybody’s time to try and engage in debate with them.

Moorish Americans take over a rural gun range, sparking a strange showdown [More]
I’ve seen the so-called “sovereign” types argue all caps, corporations, and gold-fringed Admiralty court flags before, and if I wanted to win a case I sure wouldn’t have my lawyer argue any of that in court. If you disagree, feel free to prove me wrong in a gun case of your own.
That said, Tomlinson comes off like a Fudd.
The main issue for me here is, did their bullets go off-property…? That doesn’t depend on anybody’s beliefs.

FBI Says Twitter Infiltration Business As Usual , Slams ‘Conspiracy Theorists’ [More]
I believe them.
It is business as usual, and by the time something is a theory, the hypotheses have been tested. to form a “plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle … to explain phenomena.”

Oregon judge extends ban on new gun law’s background checks… [More]
And if you don’t think the “Charleston Loophole” is a “dangerous gap,” just ask Google!
He said lawyers for the federal government admitted in court to having at least 400 pages of “potentially responsive” documents but are now saying they can “neither confirm nor deny” whether the records exist. [More]
Consider that the default position.
