Notes from the Resistance
If machine guns aren’t protected, the Second Amendment is a dead letter and anyone who maintains otherwise is a fraud. [More]
It’s like they’re either afraid of offending the guy who owes them or they realize their own arguments are being used against them.

It would seem not everyone is happy with me talking about this.
President Donald Trump wants Fox News host Jeanine Pirro to be the top federal prosecutor in Washington, D.C. Interim U.S. attorney Ed Martin had been nominated, but his named was pulled after a single senator announced his opposition. [More]
That would be the Weasel Whisperer.
She joined the New Yorkers Against Gun Violence anti-defense zealots in a Columbine High School Memorial Blood Dance to call “for renewal and strengthening of the federal assault weapons ban.”
She launched a “gun amnesty/buyback” program—“no questions asked,” naturally, “to get illegal and unwanted weapons off the streets.”
I guess gun rights aren’t important when your Republican fundraiser husband [was] a federal prison alumnus—as a felon, he can’t legally own a gun. Besides, when you have a taxpayer-funded bodyguard, one who made more than $87,000 in overtime in addition to his $101,000-plus salary, who need a personal gun?
You ever get the feeling peceived loyalty “trumps” principles…?
I understand she makes pro-gun noises now, but has she ever apologized, admitted what she did was wrong, and explained why it was wrong so we could be sure she knows?

Since the day I took office, the NYPD has seized more than 21,400 illegal firearms — and last week, I was able to help send many of these confiscated weapons to their final destination — a wood chipper that destroyed these guns so they can never be used to cause harm again. [More]
Mexican president declines Trump’s offer of US troops to help fight drug cartels [More]
She’s right, but for the wrong reasons. If she allowed it, her corrupt government would cease to allow her.
I’m against it for the same reason I’ve consistently been against wars that our representatives have not declared– as required by the Constitution.
Surely, someone has factored in the likelihood of a sufficient percentage of the tens of millions embedded throughout the Republic becoming even more radicalized and adopting assymetric warfare tactics, e.g., “terrorism” wherever unhardened targets present themselves, that is, practically everywhere. Can we see the projections?
If the decision IS war, then anything other than real war will be a betrayal of those we order to put their bodies and their lives on the line on our behalf. And in this case, it would be impossible to “just” target cartels without also going after their stooges at all levels of the Mexican government.
“It’s time to kill him. This moment is why the Second Amendment exist,” he declared in another.” [More]
So, just what was he demanding from all the Demanding Moms who endorsed him, and who evidently believe “gun violence” is just fine against their political enemies?

Careful, GOA. Credit where due is appropriate, but you don’t want to come across too strongly as cheerleading apologists.

Illinois gov calls for mass protests against Trump admin: GOP ‘cannot know a moment of peace’… JB Pritzker described Trump and those he has tapped as ‘an affront to every value this country was founded upon’ [More]
Right. They’d have been fine with criminalizing armed citizens and cutting the d!cks off posterity. And by “those he has tapped,” don’t forget yourself if you voted for Trump over Kamala.
Imagine if Trump had said that on J6– it would have been a slam dunk conviction. So, will how much responsibility will this tub of goo bear should predictable Democrat passions prevail on a national scale?
Now imagine his presidential aspirations materializing. I guess at least we’d figure out how serious most gun owners are.
…but the pain is necessary first if the Administration is to achieve its goals of driving out illegal and legal foreign labor… [More]
Dude, where did you get that idea?
Or as my 2 ½-year-old granddaughter has just started saying, “Oh, come on!“
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.
Trump administration says machine guns aren’t protected by Second Amendment [More]
Juxtapose that against this.
Either Jennifer Case didn’t get the memo or we have another inevitable embarassment that comes from leaving gun owners out of the “Task Force.”
Then again, if the position is not retracted, there’s a third possibility:
Trump Keeps Talking About Bringing Back Self-Deported Illegals – What Is He Thinking? [More]
As much as I criticize the guy and believe he specializes in self-aggrandizement over sincerity, I can’t argue that he has initiated unprecedented actions and more are on the way. All those actions will ultimately prove temporary and reversible if the Republicans can’t get their act together, and part of that problem is on us as gun owners, and how involved we’re willing to get pressing them to do the right thing.
And I gotta ask: Bob Barr?
“I will get rid of gun-free zones on schools, and — you have to — and on military bases,” Trump said, to scattered cheers during a campaign rally on Thursday night. “My first day, it gets signed, okay? My first day. There’s no more gun-free zones.” [More]
Don’t get too excited. He said that nine years ago.

We’ve already established that tough confirmation questions are off limits. And don’t count the Democrats out for a comeback.
Wake me when there are real costs, and a means to exact them.

The comment restriction is one way cowardly liars can keep from being ratioed.
Naturally, they left out all of what he said. And that the FSU maniac who exploited a “gun-free zone” got the gun from his cop mom.
