So DOJ is just following orders?
Precedent says that’s no excuse:
In the case of the US v. Josef Altstötter, et al., an American military tribunal tried members of the Reich Ministry of Justice as well as jurists and prosecutors of the People’s Court [Volksgericht] and Special Court [Sondergericht].
As for voting to change the law, what they’re saying is individual citizens in solid blue states are f_d by a tyranny of the majority. What they’re saying the Bill of Rights isn’t worth the parchment it’s printed on.

A Queens senior citizen who shot dead a man who tried to rob him will spend four years in prison after admitting to toting an unlicensed revolver — as his lawyer ripped the city’s “draconian” gun laws. [More]
Good morning, Ms. Dhillon. Your mission, should you choose to accept it…

In a filing in the DC Court of Appeals last month in a criminal matter, the United States moved to vacate the appellant’s conviction under D.C. Code § 7-2506.01(b) for possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device, because “[i]t is the United States’s position that § 7-2506.01(b) is unconstitutional.” The DOJ also says they would not charge a similarly situated defendant today.

I’d say it’s about time, but that’s on previous administrations.
We should let this one know it’s done good.

It’s all part of that bipolarity we’ve been talking about.
Fortunately, there’s a cure. We’ve even got the legal wrangles and alternatives figured out.
Except none of the rice bowl groups want to play. They say they have their own contacts, and apparently perceived exclusivity if their priority. Except that means things get done in secret with our rights that we may not agree with– as has happened before and will happen again — and the bipolar disappointments and flat-out reneging and betrayals will continue, the groups will continue to walk on eggshells so no administration feathers are ruffled, and popular 2A cheerleaders will convince a critical mass that it’s not only a good thing, but masterful 3D chess.

As the “pro-Second Amendment” administration’s top civil rights lawyer, I’m wondering how she justifies requiring government permission — with the power to say “No”– for a non-incarcerated citizen to exercise a fundamental right.

Still, refile the complaint with fresh evidence; new priorities may prompt a §242 probe into Rochford’s bias. [More]
Scroll up in the thread to follow. Essentially, after reviewing evidentiary documentation reported here, Grok has concluded allowing anti-gun activist judge with real conflicts of interest to decide 2A cases means deprivation of rights under color of authority has occurred and there’s no good reason for the DOJ Civil Rights Division not to act.
Let’s see if we can finally put those fine words to the test this time.

Still, the brief adds some important points that an ultimate Supreme Court decision will need to consider: Among recognized “uses by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes” are “self-defense, target shooting, and public defense,” that last category touching on the core purpose the Framers had in mind as articulated in the first 13 words of the Second Amendment.

My latest from Firearms News looks at a long called for DOJ action in support of the Second Amendment that matches its new words.
…he can file a complaint here… [More]
Who gets your attention tells us a lot about your priorities.
Second Amendment issues are civil rights issues. [More]
Some of us have been telling Justice that for going on 25 years.
Nice to finally get a response…

Let’s hope we see fine actions.
I’d feel better if the “Task Force” wasn’t all being fed by the same hand.
