Notes from the Resistance
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said groups challenging a 2013 law banning assault weapons and a second gun control law enacted a decade later could not show that the guns they are still able to possess, including several semi-automatic handguns, are not sufficient for self-defense purposes.

And no, I don’t think they’re embarrassed at all. I think they’re in-our-face about it.

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.
We’re the Only Ones Exposed Enough [More]
Then there’s:
The gun industry could face civil damages for the misuse of firearms in limited circumstances in Connecticut under product liability legislation passed by the House and sent to the Senate on Wednesday. Passage of House Bill 7042 came on a largely party-line vote of 100 to 46 in the House, where Democrats have a 102-49 majority. Five Democrats were opposed and five Republicans in favor. [More]
With “Republicans” like these, who needs Democrats?
The five Republicans in favor were Chris Aniskovich of Clinton, Devin Carney of Old Saybrook, Tina Courpas of Greenwich, Tom Delnicki of South Windsor and Tracy Marra of Darien.
If I were CCDL, I’d be spitting on their treachery at their “social media” accounts.
If you think they are willing to stop at collecting machine guns, they will eventually go for your semi-automatic rifles. If you think they will stop at semi-automatic rifles, they’ll go for your bolt action and lever action rifles when you’re not looking. [More]
That’s why they call them “totalitarians.”
To paraphrase Martin Niemöller, “Then they came for the Fudds— and there was no one left to speak for them.
State attorneys: hunting rifles are not “constitutionally” protected in Connecticut… Whether or not they are constitutionally protected, they are certainly democratically protected,” Perry said. “As a rule, something that is popular doesn’t need constitutional protection, because it’s popular. [More]
And once they’re no longer popular?
Or in “common use” …?
The question nobody asks collectivist monkeys like Joshua Perry is if the Constitution doesn’t protect me, what makes you think it protects you?
Your turn in the barrel, Fudds.
Just because Polyphemus promised to eat you last didn’t mean he wasn’t going to.

…we’re likely going to lose it because we’re in the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit but a strong showing for the Second Amendment in this case and I think it’s going to give rise to good stuff… before the United States Supreme Court in the Snope-Bianchi case hopefully coming out this spring… [Watch]
So, in order to get over the wall we need to climb over the bodies of our fallen…

Hartford, CT, Democrat Mayor Denounces Residents Who Are Arming Themselves to Fight Violent Crime [More]
It’s not like he and his family fled to this country with a firm grounding in its unique principles of freedom…

A new controversial armed citizen patrol has launched in Hartford. Organizers say the people will be legally carrying as they walk around parts of the city where violence has taken a toll… They were part of Minister Cornell Lewis’ Self-Defense Brigade. [More]
So… how do they vote?
That white broad must be a real piece of work.

Starting in October, three blue states will put into effect a slew of new gun reform legislation. [More]
That Goldfinger… him plenty smart fella.

“Fact is, most mass shooters are engaged in a suicide attempt,” he continued. [More]
Fact is, so is everyone who believes they can force armed free men into surrendering their rights to lying Marxist pussies like Chris Murphy.
He’s just trying to talk Republicans into committing suicide by backing citizen disarmament treason.

Wild gun battle on Connecticut street sends dozens running; 3 wounded [More]
That must explain the “-” after the “A.”
What do you want to bet nobody involved is a CCDL member but are instead related to people who vote for Giffords candidates?

“We’re patrolling the neighborhood. But we have guns because the Second Amendment says that if you have a license, you are allowed to carry one,” he said. [More]
That’s not what it says at all.
While it’s encouraging to see this, you can’t very well claim rights if you don’t understand them.
Still, I wouldn’t mind seeing the racist implications of Connecticut’s asinine “duty to retreat” exposed.

Appeals Court: No First Amendment Right to Religious Exemption From Vaccine Mandate [More]
You must let us experiment on your children or we will take them from you, and if you resist us, we will kill you.
More souls for Moloch, just like the Founders intended.
One of the judges is a Trump appointee, once more underscoring the importance of vetting these bastards before handing them a gavel.

Connecticut State Police troopers may have falsified tens of thousands of traffic stop records submitted to the state’s racial profiling data reporting program, potentially skewing the numbers to reflect more infractions for white drivers and fewer for Black and Hispanic motorists. [More]
I guess it’s OK if you do it to the disfavored.

“Friend was violating no law by standing on the sidewalk and displaying his sign, and [Police Sgt. Richard] Gasparino had no lawful reason to order him to desist from that conduct,” the appeals court ruled. [More]
If he wanted to engage in police-approved speech in Stamford, he should have become a paid gunsnitch.
That said, it’s probably unfair for me to judge Sgt. Gasparino until I’ve goose-stepped a mile in his jackboots.
Kinda helps explain why Connecticut is so hot for unending citizen disarmament schemes…
