Delay of Game Sitrep

Remember when I said I had a convergence of circumstances affecting my availability to post here and to correspond?

And then when I said I’d be on limited duty as circumstances allowed?

My first post of the day coming in the afternoon is a pretty good indicator of those limitations. Sorry if you took the time to send me something and I end up not being able to get to it for consideration. That’s likely to continue for a while.

I have an article to publicize and then I’ll get to what I can.

Like I said, life, huh?

We’re the Only Ones Simple Enough

Oakland Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong had a simple message Tuesday outside City Hall in the wake of a spree of deadly shootings in the city: put down the guns. [Watch]

Expecting that to make a difference is beyond simple. It’s retarded.

As is everyone in this video, starting with the incompetent “Authorized Journalists” putting the blame on “gun violence,” every self-promoting “official” spouting blather, and every “community” moron wearing an orange shirt and nodding solemnly after each buzzword.

Temporary Relief

U.S. District Judge Charlotte Sweeney, a Biden appointee, issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) on Tuesday against Boulder County. It stops enforcement of the county’s ban on the manufacture and sale of assault weapons, which include the popular AR-15, and ammunition magazines capable of holding more than ten rounds. [More]

So what’s it take to get a PRO?

A Shotgun Approach

“It is not a good morning in Houston,” Police Chief Troy Finner said. “This suspect unfortunately, very sadly and very evilly set fire to several residences, laid wait for those residents to come out and fired upon them.” Firefighters had to take cover as they arrived to fight the blaze amid the mass shooting. Police spotted the shooter, dressed in all black with a shotgun… [More]

So, Fudds: When they succeed in banning guns in the front of the line, what do you think the grabbers will next characterize as “weapons of choice”?

And is it just me, or is finding information on the shooter kind of hard to ferret out, even after the story has aged a few days?

A City’s Got to Know Its Limitations

We are constrained by the recent United States Supreme Court decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v Bruen (597 US _, 142 SCt 2111 [2022]) which mandates the grant of this CPLR article 78 petition. Specifically, in Bruen , the United States Supreme Court held that denial of a license applications for failing to satisfy New York’s “proper cause” standard, under which the applicants had to demonstrate a special need for self-protection distinguishable from that of the general community, was unconstitutional as violative of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, which protects an individual’s fundamental right to keep a firearm, and the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which makes this right equally applicable throughout the states. THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT. [More]

Callahan” seems such an appropriate name here.

Jojo Krako Permitting

Challenger to NJ’s unconstitutional law granted carry permit (kind of). [More]

So the “historical understanding” is that flintlock pistols were to be kept unloaded and locked in the back of the carriage and you could not have them where the “authorities” declared off-limits …?

Just like the old days…?

Who’s infringin’? We’re forbiddin’!
