Secret Service Agent Robbed at Gunpoint in California During Biden’s Trip [More]
We could all improve our situational awareness.
In California, we can’t all shoot back, or at least have incentive to report it afterward.

Notes from the Resistance
California law prohibiting gun shows at county fairs upheld by federal appeals court in unanimous decision [More]
Years ago, before the Great Western Gun Show was forced out of California, I recall being especially bitter over how it could attract tens of thousands of gun owners–yet a counter-protest against the Million Moms preceded by announcements and appeals throughout the “activist” network, only drew a few hundred. And out of all Los Angeles, we’d be lucky to get 50 to show up at an NRA Members’ Council meeting, and of those, maybe half a dozen– of the same people all the time– actually did any work.
Add the engineered demographic shift our “gun rights leaders” say doesn’t qualify for “single issue” consideration, and the traditional uselessness of California Republicans, and no other outcome was possible.
Appealing to the full Ninth Circuit won’t reverse things. That’s just a requisite step to denial, and then hoping the Supreme Court will hear it and that it still has a favorable majority.

Father of Four Executed as Gunman Indiscriminately Fires at Random Cars in Gun-Controlled California [More]
He was on his way home after working the night shift to provide for his family when this worthless waste of oxygen decided to kill. I’m thinking it’s no coincidence that so far, “background details on the suspect were unavailable.”

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco has scheduled oral arguments Aug. 14 in the Second Amendment Foundation’s challenge of California’s one-gun-per-month (OGM) purchase restriction, in a case known as Nguyen v. Bonta. [More]
Of course it’s an infringement.
Of course the Ninth Circuit knows it.
And of course they’re going to do everything in their power to stall things until Democrats get the national majority they need to remake SCOTUS and reverse Bruen.
With your money.
So bring in a player for the other team..
This is why taking back the Senate is so critical. Even with the four Republicans abstaining, she was still confirmed along party lines.

“I don’t want to send more black and brown men to prison. I don’t want more people in prison, but I don’t want people buying girls. I don’t want people buying little girls anymore. I’m tired of saying it’s okay and that we have to protect the men who do it,” Eggman continued. [More]
There’s a Walrus joke in there somewhere…

I see a Streisand Effect in their futures.
Seems another Democrat had something to say about that once…
Berman, Gipson, and Weber, eh?
I remember that Gipson racist idiot tyrant . I see Pinhead Berman and Gunquack Weber also want men with guns to take away yours.
Hey, if you can ignore the Second Amendment, why would you worry about the First?
Let ’em pass it. Then let ’em try to extradite me.

New cars in California could alert drivers for breaking the speed limit [More]
California. Figures.
But it’s for the greater good…
If you use Google Maps directions, it tells you how fast you’re going. And if you’re on a toll road, it knows when you enter and exit, and can calculate speed.
That the latter hasn’t been used to prosecute is simply a matter of timing. And once they get us out of our cars onto public transit, and control the remaining single vehicles by mandating they be “self driving,” it will be a moot point.
California already has a law currently being challenged as unconstitutional based on a 10 day waiting period. A new law that just too effect Jan 1 2024 authorizes California to extend that 10 days up to another 30 for transfers. [Watch]
The bastards don’t even pretend to give “shall not be infringed” any notice.
And if someone gets killed while waiting…?

This directly undermines the memory and sacrifice of the 58,220 US soldiers and 250,000 South Vietnamese soldiers who died in defense of freedom and democracy during the Vietnam War, in addition to the millions of Vietnamese civilian casualties as a result of the conflict. [More]

Paul Miyamoto certainly sounds like a self-important dolt, And talk about an admission that California’s A-rated gun laws don’t work!
So, I guess if the San Jose Police Department and the San Francisco County Sheriff’s Office whine about not having enough money, they could be reminded they had a source of revenue and they turned their noses up at it.
Not that anyone capable of changing anything will…

Gun owners in the Golden State weren’t deprived of their Second Amendment nor privacy rights because the state only shares minimal biographical information with two research colleges, a Ninth Circuit panel found on Wednesday. [More]
Which will then be used by “The Hero of Medicine” to give cover for infringements to reach into all of their purchases, records, homes, safes…

Under its new policy, the LA County Sheriff’s Department says people like Turner must apply through their local police chiefs and receive a letter denying them before asking for permission from the sheriff’s department. [More]
Who then comes up with excuses why he can’t do it.
After a death threat and on the advice of an investigating cop who told me they could not do anything unless it was acted on, I carried illegally in California from @ 1981 to 2007 (when I moved back to Ohio), because I literally could not get a permit to save my life (which I did on one occasion simply by presenting).
Start @ 3:27 for my recollection.
The criminals who deserve to be imprisoned and have their lives destroyed are the goddam bastards who forced me to risk my family, freedom, and career.

California law bars non-residents from carrying a gun. Does that violate the Second Amendment? [More]
No one who is not a prohibitionist would even ask.
Or as Democrat Roger Taney wrote when horrified at the prospect of Dred Scott being considered a citizen:
“It would give to persons of the negro race, who were recognised as citizens in any one State of the Union, the right to enter every other State … and to keep and carry arms wherever they went.”
Wait… that last link is from Oath Keepers…? What are racist Nazi rightwing insurrectionists doing defending rights for all…?
