Tyrants Haunted by Ghosts

The Department of Justice’s Statement of Interest informs the Court that the United States has serious concerns about the proliferation of untraceable firearms easily assembled from firearm parts kits and unfinished frames and receivers. [More]

Well, yeah. If we don’t know about them, how are we expected to confiscate them?

So What Are We, Chopped Liver?

A congregation in Midwood, Brooklyn, argues in a new lawsuit that the state’s new firearm law banning the carrying of concealed guns at houses of worship has effectively put targets on their backs at temple, a lawsuit alleges. [More]

You know what would be nice? Instead of just hearing from you guys when it’s your ox getting gored if you’d show leadership and be more vocal when subversives like the ADL or secular Jewish politicians and media figures are inciting the mob for more citizen disarmament. Because when the rest of us condemn them, it’s just chalked up to antisemitism.

What Stare Decisis Says the Founders Must Have Meant

A judge has ruled the March 2021 FBI raid of US Private Vaults did not violate the Fourth Amendment. [More]

You know, the ones that says “… Warrants … particularly describing … the persons or things to be seized….”?

Kinda like gun bans and prior restraints don’t infringe…

Great Expectations

‘How low was this bar?’ President Biden has ‘FAR exceeded’ David Hogg’s expectations [More]

You know what else exceeds all expectations? After months of free nationwide media publicity still exploiting his name even after he resigned, the number of Good Pillow Facebook followers:

I’m (not really) surprised these “progressives” don’t have any people of color on their page. Who do we tell that to?

We’re the Only Ones Cheesy Enough

“I would highly suggest that if a looter breaks into your home, comes into your home while you’re there to steal stuff, that you take your gun and you shoot him. You shoot him so that he looks like grated cheese,” Judd added. [More]

It sounds cute, and I’m seeing no shortage of this sentiment (NSFW), but I have to ask: What instructions has he given his deputies if that’s what they find when they show up?

I ask because with DGU trainers advising “Shoot to stop” and ambitious prosecutors ready to bring anything that looks like deliberate overkill in front of a grand jury to make an example, I’m thinking this is about as advisable as Joe Biden telling us to shoot off the balcony and through the door.

Only the “Only Ones” get to “empty the clip,” and that’s mostly so that one or two rounds might hit the intended target.

RELATED UPDATE

Assuming they even do that:

Round that killed Polk deputy came from fellow deputies, sheriff says

Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places

A woman in Colorado Springs, Colorado, was charged with multiple felonies after she was accused of duct-taping, cutting and choking a man she met on Tinder, according to police. [More]

They say you shouldn’t blame the victim, but tell me he didn’t deserve it.

I’d bet money they’re both Democrats.

And if you scroll down, there’s more. What the hell is wrong with people?

‘Show Me the Man, and I’ll Show You the Crime’

“It is disappointing that Attorney General Ellison filed his complaint without ever once talking to us… It’s also worth noting that … we were told by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms that our team members had ‘done nothing wrong’ and had complied with all applicable gun laws.” [More]

Yeah, but Ellison’s communist agenda never let a little thing like innocence slow it down…

A Confluence of Factors

The father of a man accused of fatally shooting a professor at the University of Arizona on Wednesday said his son is “disturbed” and has a violent criminal history. [More]

So why was this known danger out free to stalk among us?

And why was the professor such an easy victim?

Arizona Board of Regents Policies 5-302 and 5-303 prohibit the use, possession, display, or storage of any weapons, explosive device, or fireworks on the University of Arizona campus and on all land and in all buildings owned or under the control of the University of Arizona on behalf of the Arizona Board of Regents, except as provided in ARS §12-781. No concealed carry permit exempts a person from this policy.

Now there’s a group that looks like they’d make a monster think twice!

When Seconds Count

Ross says he held the suspect, 29-year-old Roy Ward, at gunpoint about half an hour until West Virginia State Police arrived and arrested him. [More]

What have we learned?

That said, with this happening outside the home, problematic legal issues arise.  Fortunately, normal American gun owners aren’t the bloodthirsty vigilantes the lying gun-grabbers smear us as.
