Notes from the Resistance
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.

Gun Ownership by Gender in 2024: Closing the Gender Gap [More]
Just don’t conflate gun ownership with political sanity.
This is the forehead slapper for me:
Male support for gun control has increased by 30% since 2001
Indoctrination outpaces education.
“People like me who like to hunt and who love guns, it’s sad almost to watch them get cut up,” said volunteer Dan Krull. “But we are going to support this sort of thing because it is symbolic and sends a message like, ‘Look we need to do something.’” [More]
You’re a real genius, aren’t you, gunkapo Fudd Dan?
So: Who was the FFL who processed the transfers?
Or was this another one of these?

There ARE no pro-Second Amendment Democrats.
Even NRA isn’t fooled by that Walzian fraud:

Hunting license sales held relatively steady in 2023, with over 80% of participating states reporting a 5% or less change from 2022. [More]
Got stats on how many vote Democrat and what you guys are doing to change that?
1st where are the fudds? Chip Curry is anti-gun and again where are the fudds? As a life long resident and sportsman of ME. and now a senior citizen I have NEVER been contacted by MIF&W. Besides it is not the job of IF&W to teach how to clean your AR. They are spending $ that is supposed to go to supporting wildlife supposed to be game animals not this B.S. PLUS, what moron would trust anyone associated with the Mill’s admin, not to keep records of who is in attendance and what they have. Lastly Where are the fudds? David Codrea, ME. has enough anti-2A going on with out your B.S. You sir are an @$$hat. [More]
Somebody was rubbed the wrong way.
As for where the Fudds are, reading is your friend: See objections to the class quoted in the article :
“I am a lifelong deer hunter and own several rifles and shotguns. I have never in my life seen a hunter in the woods of Maine using an AR style rifle for hunting.”
And:
“I consider myself an advocate for gun rights, I’ve grown up in Maine. I understand that Maine IFW does not make the gun laws for our country. I don’t believe anyone should be able to own AR style weapons…”
And it is the job– by law:
“The commissioner shall establish a program for training individuals in the safe handling of firearms.”
So yeah, funds go to that. Is your contention that it’s not in the state’s interest to make sure people it issues hunting licenses to can’t do it safely? As for funds going exclusively to wildlife and game animals, gun owners who aren’t hunters also subsidize that with higher prices to offset manufacturers and importers paying the federal excise infringement.
As for “what moron would trust anyone associated with the Mill’s admin, not to keep records,” I assume the “life long sportsman” got his guns through an FFL and gets licenses to hunt?
So, pointing out Fudds and antis objecting to the training and noting their hostility to ARs is “anti-2A … B.S.”?
Where are the Fudds? I think I just got done responding to one.
Just Another Boomer Fudd.
That’s from a comment left under my latest AmmoLand piece. *
To be a “Fudd” — which does not apply to all hunters and sport shooters, just the ones who throw owners of other guns under the bus — is a conscious decision that it’s fair to judge people on.
To be a “boomer” is a circumstance of birth, and to disparage individuals for that embraces collectivist thinking. It’s no different than being a racist. It’s ignorant and hateful, and on top of that hypocritical.
Be your turn in the barrel soon enough, pal…
* (And same screename notwithstanding, it’s not by our WarOnGuns Correspondent.)
If owning a gun was all it took, we’d have no better pals than these.
That said, even though “I’m the NRA,” until they get their house in order, which won’t happen with Wayne’s death grip, I generally look elsewhere for leadership.

The Hunting and Conservation Nexus of the National Firearms Act [More]
I may explore this in more detail. For now, suffice it to say a coalition of elitist Fudds and racist, anamaladjusted environmentalcases screwed posterity.

Because those who do can.

Despite that long history and the popularity of the Pittman-Robertson Act among hunters, anglers, conservationists and the firearm industry, Clyde and other sponsors have painted the tax as an assault on the Second Amendment. [More]
It absolutely is.
Pay for your own “sporting purposes,” Fudds.
See how you like us being the ones throwing you under the bus for a change.

So give national exposure to a “group” that’s managed to attract 85 Twitter followers since 2017.
Meanwhile, naked Hunter Biden and his second illegally-obtained gun is a story for the media to ignore.
