File Under ‘WTF?’

President-elect Trump announces Pam Bondi as his new pick for US attorney general [More]

That would be the same Pam Bondi NRA sued over denial of rights for 18-20-year-olds where the 11th Circuit, contrary to Bruen, “decided that historical sources from Reconstruction are more probative of the Second Amendment’s scope than those from the Founding.”

I can sense the apologists preparing arguments that her job is to defend state law.

I don’t hold any politician to standards I don’t hold myself to. I’d quit a job that required me to do that.

Wouldn’t you?

More words, President Trump?

This is exactly why “Gun Owners for Trump” needs to be more than names to help him get elected but actually be a presence and have his ear when he’s in power.

But when it’s all said and done, “I’d rather be judged by 12 than carried by six” applies.

Sorry or Sorry, Not Sorry?

I spoke directly with Mayor Dowling Watford and Police Chief Donald Hagan. Both profusely apologized and explained that at no point was it their intention to strip the residents and business owners of their Second Amendment rights. [More]

I’d prefer officials do things my way because they share my convictions, but if they just do it out of fear I can live with it.

If Only We Didn’t Have Rights…

Recent operations by the FBI and prosecution by the U.S. Department of Justice has led to federal convictions for Florida residents accused of buying high-powered guns to arm the gangs in Haiti… “These international gangs and these criminal organizations have very sophisticated means and networks to be able to facilitate smuggling, whether it’s through shipments, out of the ports, airlines, different things like that…” [More]

Why would they need to?

I notice how it is “international gangs” are in this country in the first place is left unexplored.

Not the Only One?

“I said [at the press conference] if you shoot accurately, and you kill the guy, you save taxpayers money. And I also said that if somebody gets killed during a home invasion, the odds of them re-offending are zero. And we like those odds, which we do,” he told Fox News Digital. [More]

I see Forbes was one of the guilty DSM parties.

I remember when Steve was trying to con gun owners into thinking he was a pal. NRA, of course, fell for it, but they’ve covered their tracks by deleting their video “Steve Forbes – a New President to Put Forward a PositiveProgram.”

Kicking the Can Down the Road

“Unless and until judicially or legislatively clarified, I conclude that the definition of ‘short-barreled rifle,’ which the Legislature enacted in 1969, does not include a handgun, such as a pistol, to which a person attaches a stabilizing brace, because the use of such an optional accessory does not change the fundamental characteristics of the handgun.” [More]

Not that politicians majority rule voting on what to call something would legitimately alter the truth…
