Federal firearm buyback program has cost $67M since 2020, still hasn’t collected guns [More]
And yet no one is in prison…
They’re saving that for noncompliant gun owners.

Gun Conrollers Knew the Assault Weapons Ban Failed in 2004 and They Know It Now [More]
Failed at what? If the answer is “at stopping crime,” that was never the intent.

The Ease with Which She Lies in Front of Millions
Of course they’re talking about taking your guns.
The psy ops is in full force, with “conservative” Frank Luntz telling lefty media that Trump’s toast. Admittedly, the guy let himself get rattled and, as in 2020, the election is his to blow, but the real focus on behavior ought to be on someone who can lie so seamlessly and with a smile, using a mask of compassion and concern to hide malevolent intent.
There’s something deeply wrong with a person who can do that.

Today’s Low-Hanging Fruit Report
So a mouthy Pakistani frostback who should have never been allowed onto this continent and doesn’t even have the gear is all the “Boogedy-Boogedy” needed to spook the herbivores into demanding an AR ban.
And yes, millions of Democrats are stupid enough to fall for this.

An Old Way Backward
She’ll ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, require universal background checks, and support red flag laws that keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people. [More]
Well, she can try.

Budget Squeeze
McKee says he will include an ‘assault weapon’ ban in next year’s budget. [More]
Well, he beat the Republican 58% to 39%, so Rhode Islanders evidently have the overseer they want. And it’s not like “gun laws are strong enough” would put fire in my belly…

Race to the Top
A challenge against Maryland’s gun ban is likely to make it to the U.S. Supreme Court before gun ban challenges from other states. [More]
Sadly, all the high court has to do to let it stand is nothing.
If they do hear it, it will be a game-changer, but it will still leave the more fundamentally destructive NFA and Hughes Amendment in play.
Then there are the questions of when will they hear such a case, and who will be in power and appointing justices?

A federal appeals court upheld Maryland’s ban on assault-style weapons Tuesday in an opinion that found regulating “excessively dangerous weapons” compatible with the Second Amendment. [More]

Painted into a Corner
Somebody may want to send him this.
As for “the original public meaning of ‘Arms’ excludes bullet-storage containers lke LCMs,” does anyone have a quick link to that brief? I’d like to check and see if the “expert” definition they’re relying on invalidates New Jersey’s “bump stock” ban.

Fortunately (and predictably, at least for the present):
Prognosis 1% chance of being enacted
It’s another try at this piece of treasonous Democrat subversion:
This Act may be cited as the Gas-Operated Semi-Automatic Firearms Exclusion Act or the GOSAFE Act.
In other words, Democrat gasbags are doing what they always do on guns: Gaslighting.
As an aside, McBath was a panelist for the Astroturf 97percent phonies who pretend to represent “reasonable” gun owners, and she let slip she was appealing to Fudds because “Bringing them into these discussions really helps us understand better ways to infiltrate…”

Telegraphing His Moves
Responding in Kind
Thursday, 5/23/24 Connecticut Citizens Defense League filed a Response Brief in the Grant v. Lamont case. This brief is asking the court to reconsider our preliminary injunction that was denied by Judge Arterton prior to her retirement. If successful, injunctive relief could halt the CT Assault Weapons Ban while the case is in court. The Connecticut Assault Weapons Ban is an unjust restriction of our 2A rights under the scrutiny of the Bruen decision, we will keep on fighting until we reclaim what is ours. [More]
In the meantime, don’t stop doing what it takes…
