That’s nice, but some of us aren’t influenced by popularity contests.
And there are those whose agenda would benefit from a Beslan redux here in terms of flipping the numbers and weakening Republican resolve.

Because theatrical gestures are accepted by shallow thinkers as substitutes for meaningful actions?
Forgive me if I read the name “George Santos” and wonder if self-serving motives trump sincerity and why anyone should believe a chronic and habitual liar.
And forgive me if I wonder why Rep. Anna Paulina Luna didn’t see fit to even mention the right to keep and bear arms in her campaign platform.

Any Person
“Any person who violates the provisions of this section is guilty of a fourth degree felony.” [More]
“Any person” would seem to include any person traversing the state on these interstates.
But don’t worry. Any person will be protected as a traverser. Maybe.
For this and other “concessions” on illegitimate claims against our birthrights “we” accepted the “voice vote” Hughes Amendment…?
Does any person doubt it will pass?

It’s a Trap!
Meanwhile, Over in Al Capone’s Vault…
Rivera, a gun owner, was illustrating that the Second Amendment didn’t cover modern firearms capable of mass killings when the amendment was ratified in 1791. And that AR-15-style rifles go far beyond self-defense. [More]
Ah, the long-debunked “The Founders could have never imagined” bullsh!+.
Figures this moron would be spreading it.
I recall writing an Examiner article years back where a guy was prosecuted for having a muzzleloader in New York City. I can’t find it now and don’t recall the details, but it would be funny if Geraldo incriminated himself.
How he got it in the studio is another question.
And figures, HuffPo would think he won the argument.

Kwame, How I Love Ya, How I Love Ya, My Dear Old Kwame
Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul appealed to the 5th District Appellate Court in Mount Vernon Monday to overturn a temporary restraining order against the Protect Illinois Communities Act, which bans dozens of handguns and rifles, .50-caliber guns, certain attachments and accessories, and limits cartridges to 10 rounds for long guns and 15 rounds for pistols.

On the plus side, it’ll end up heading to the Bruen court…

NRA challenges Illinois semiautomatic gun ban in court: ‘Blatant violation’ of Second Amendment rights [More]
So all the big dogs are in.
Welcome to the Party, Pals
Today, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and the Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) joined a federal lawsuit filed today challenging Illinois’s latest ban on so-called “assault weapons.” The Second Amendment Law Center and the Federal Firearms Licensees of Illinois are also lead plaintiffs in this suit, along with others as well.

Back for a Return Engagement
Dianne Feinstein and fellow domestic enemies make another noisy play to start a civil war. [More]

Semi vs. Full Autocratic?
“Is he going to enforce our automatic weapons ban if that’s an unregistered weapon?” Stava-Murray said. “He said no, he’s not going to. That seems very dangerous.” [More]
Who does she think she is? Kenny Akers?
Do you think she’s really that ignorant, or is she calculating enough to assist with the lie?
And any bets on if the sheriff will stick to his guns?

Delay of Game
A judge has issued a temporary restraining order blocking the new Illinois law banning assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines [More]
Related, just to show how worlds apart we are:
“They took an oath of office to enforce the laws of the state of Illinois, and they will do so,” Pritzker said of the sheriffs Friday in Chicago after signing a law protecting abortion and gender-affirming care.
That’s not what the oath is to, but funny how this disgusting pig of a privileged elite domestic enemy now demands his enforcers be “oath keepers”…
That’s not without precedent.

How Can You Tell John Idleburg is Lying?
While I am a believer in our Constitution and our 2nd Amendment, I firmly support the ban on assault-style rifles and I truly hope our federal government follows to ban them nationwide. Since our Constitution and the 2nd Amendment were formed, firearms have become much more sophisticated and much more deadly. Our Founding Fathers were not loading .223 rounds into their muskets. They were not using firearms designed to disintegrate human bodies. As I said following the Highland Park mass shooting, these weapons of war do not belong on our streets. They’re used to kill our police, used to kill innocent people, and used to inflict maximum carnage on their victims. [More]
The hand on the Bible is always a good clue.
Some of the cud-chewers in “Comments” certainly have the government they deserve.

An Added Benefit
Why Illinois’ new assault weapons ban might not hold up in court [More]
True, but it’s not like it costs the subversives anything, and those they’re persecuting will need to spend big bucks to fight it.
Use Your Imagination
We at the Colorado State Shooting Association (the NRA’s state association) have obtained a draft copy of the transparently tyrannical “Assault Weapons Ban” that politicians are preparing to introduce in the Colorado State House… It’s as bad as you could possibly imagine. [More]
I dunno… I can imagine pretty bad, and with the lessons of history, who needs to?
But as long as we’re invited to imagine, I’d like to fantasize about how deliberately undermining that which is “necessary to the security of a free State” could be a capital offense.
