Notes from the Resistance
Attorney General Pam Bondi has announced that the DOJ does not believe that the McCoy vs ATF should be the next 2A SCOTUS case. Why did DOJ say this? Mark Smith, Four Boxes Diner, discusses [Watch]
I’m not afraid to say so when I think he’s not being objective considering all factors, or just generally playing see-no-evil administration cheerleader. That said, I think he’s correct here.

To be clear, I thought those secret efforts where they “don’t like to get into details talking about who we’re working with and how we’re accomplishing it” had everything under control…

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a motion for summary judgment in a federal lawsuit challenging Hawaii’s ban on the acquisition and possession of firearms and ammunition for adults 18-20 years old. [More]
Great.
But the state has a virtually unlimited war chest, and 2A advocacy groups have to scramble up money from already overburdened activists.
Where are Harmeet Dhillon and Pam Bondi on this deprivation of rights under color of authority?
A Delaware state court struck down the state’s ban on firearms ownership for adults between the ages of 18 and 21, citing the obvious conclusion that such a ban is unconstitutional, just as it would be for any other enumerated right. However, the opinion is wrought with other areas of concern that show the court’s hostility towards Second Amendment rights. [More]

Gun Owners of America (GOA), Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), and the State of Missouri have filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to immediately block enforcement of Jackson County’s sweeping gun control ordinance targeting young adults. [More]
But…but…but without it, Audie might get a gun!!!
The cognitive dissonance… it burns…

There’s a method to their madness.

I respect that Braden Langley is one of the few who give links to substantiate and credit where they get their information from. That’s a litmus test for me. Too many “guntubers” don’t, which is another reason I rarely link to them, and avoid some altogether who just exploit the work of others.

After passing along party lines, a bill to raise the age for buying semi-automatic guns heads to Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo’s desk for what could be a veto. Assembly Bill 245 would raise the minimum purchasing age of assault rifles and semi-automatic shotguns to 21 from 18. Despite its passage, the bill looks unlikely to become law because Lombardo vetoed a similar bill in 2023. [More]
Billionaire casino owners and service worker unions continue to impose themselves on the rest of the state, just like in Question 1:
Don’t ask if I’m going to SHOT Show. I do rights, not hardware.
F_ers’ll never see a dime of my money…

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging Connecticut’s ban on adults under the age of 21 from purchasing, owning or carrying handguns. [More]
Good– it makes a key undeniable point:
Over 200 colonial and Founding-era militia statutes throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries not only permitted, but affirmatively mandated that persons aged eighteen to twenty acquire and keep arms.
Mayor John Whitmire has finalized a contract agreement with the Houston Police Officers’ Union to raise the salary of first-year police officers to $81,000. The agreement, which also includes expanded benefits, will make Houston’s 5,200 police officers the highest-paid in Texas. Previously, officers’ first-year salary was set around $60,000. [More]
That’s a heck of a raise. When’s the last time a private company offered you that kind of increase?
And since this is WarOnGuns, we might ask how Whitmire is on our issue.
He’s fine for expanding them for “Only Ones” to allow armed children on the force. That’s what the citizen disarmament lobby calls them, especially when they want to exclude 18 to 20-year-olds from the Second Amendment, right?
And then there’s what he had in mind for you…

Nevada Assembly passes bill banning people under 21 from owning semiautomatic guns [More]
Thanks a high population center filled with Democrats/union workers and rope-selling capitalists for imposing their will on the heartland, just like they attempted with Question 1.
And no, I shed no tears.
