Notes from the Resistance
Incoming Assn. of Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs board member Jason Zabala previously described his tattoo under oath, saying it depicted a skeleton in a cowboy hat with a smoking rifle and the number 140. He called the stark combination of imagery a “station tattoo,” but others described it as the symbol of a deputy gang known as the Regulators. [More]
So these guys can get off-roster guns and you can’t…
It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.

What’s clear from both the Illinois and the California cases, is prohibitionist Democrats, thwarted by the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, will leave no right unabridged in their totalitarian obsession with controlling everything. [More]
If freedom prohibitionists can take the guns, what’s to stop them from taking everything else?
There were two recent additions to the “roster” that had people in California pretty excited until they saw that the new additions cost “off roster” prices. It’s outrageous what is happening and I would like to see companies stop taking advantage of Californians due to their lack of options. [Watch]
Gotta keep “those people” from being able to afford them, just like in “the good old days,” right?

California’s assault weapons ban will remain in effect while a court considers whether the 30-year-old law is unconstitutional. [More]
That a court thinks there’s anything to consider is our first clue that the game is rigged.
I think we all know that the Ninth Circuit is going to side with citizen disarmament and it’ll take SCOTUS strapping ’em on to get a proper ruling–provided the Republicans don’t blow ’24 and the composition of the High Court changes while the clock is running.
Not that that would settle it…

Until then, extremist judges will continue to tear down the will of the American people. [More]
“NRA puppet”? What does it say about someone who doesn’t see what he’s doing here?

The Second Amendment Foundation is celebrating a victory in California as a U.S. District Court judge has declared the state’s decades-old ban on so-called “assault weapons” to be unconstitutional. [More]
Ninth Circuit to f*** it up in 3…2…1…
“We’re seeing a troubling pattern in litigation in which defendants try to drag out the process,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. [More]
With virtually unlimited tax plunder, they can afford to.
Former Dodgers star Steve Garvey jumps into the California Senate race as a Republican [More]
He’s got plenty of “I never played for Democrats or Republicans or independents. I played for all of you” happy-talk platitudes, but where does he stand on anything? And have California Republicans learned anything from the last time they backed celebrity over principle?
At least we know Garvey’s got the screw constituents and duck the fallout part down…
This guy’s got more shady baggage than Sam Brinton…
California’s Concealed Carry Restrictions Face Federal Court Challenge [More]
Yeah, I get it– increments.
Me, I just carried “illegally” for the almost three decades I lived there.
Laphonza Butler Removes ‘Maryland’ as Residence After Newsom Appointment as California Senator [More]
And here I was hoping for someone from across the Pond…

So the Ninth Circuit has immediately declared they’re going to handle this case en banc without allowing a three judge panel to hear it first… [Watch]
The only real question: Will the Supreme Court let 9th Circuit Democrat apparatchiks get away with how they’ve signaled they intend to rule?

Dianne Feinstein, California’s longest-serving senator, dies at 90 [More]
Get ready for Newsom to appoint someone with energy and for the DSM to give them all the coverage they want.
Culver City buys controversial gun store [More]
The only controversy I remember is when they let us set a table up outside to invite customers to our Westside Firearms Association (later NRA Members Council over my opposition) meetings and an occasional car of “progressives” would drive by and scream obscenities at us.
[Via Jess]
I’d argue with “permits” and “background checks,” but he makes some good points.
What I didn’t hear was a refusal to obey unlawful orders.
