Of course it is, to all but lying communist gaslighters.

Notes from the Resistance

They’re not only conflicted but hiding it. You don’t get more in-your-face corrupt than that. But don’t look for the Illinois Judicial Inquiry Board to care. [More]
What good is having your day in court when the judge is in bed with the offending politicians?
So say 3,400 obedient Illinoisans. [More]
Illinois Assault Weapons Ban Faces New Challenge… The petition argues that Justices Elizabeth Rochford and Mary Kay O’Brien participated in the case despite receiving campaign contributions from those who support the ban. [More]
Now I want you to remember who did the original work that made this possible:
[T]he research and publicity this article has caused has led to a petition with the US Supreme Court on Caperton V Massey grounds, which was first brought up in this piece.
Take it from someone who knows what it’s like to be “bigfooted” out of a story by the media and latecomers.
I’ll probably put something together over the weekend to give this wider exposure. In the meantime, if you see any YouTube gun influencers who don’t give credit to Mom-At-Arms, notify viewers in their video comments.

What’s clear from both the Illinois and the California cases, is prohibitionist Democrats, thwarted by the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, will leave no right unabridged in their totalitarian obsession with controlling everything. [More]
If freedom prohibitionists can take the guns, what’s to stop them from taking everything else?
Reparations are favored by 70% of White respondents in Illinois survey [More]
Evanston, eh? They must have been apologizing for doing this.
Can there be people more stupidly sanctimonious and suicidal?
As predicted by the Four Boxes Diner, in a 2-1 decision the US Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit— via a opinion by judges Wood and Easterbrook— have upheld Illinois’s “assault weapon” ban. However there is a strong dissent here. This decision is no shock to Four Boxes Diner viewers because as I explained before, in my view, Judge Wood and Judge Easterbrook are unserious jurists on 2A issues and this was a given outcome (unfortunate and frustrating, yes, but entirely predictable).

Meanwhile, over in Fantasy Land…

Glad to see the SNBIers finally outnumbering the prags. Somewhere Vanderboegh is smiling.
I remember not all that long ago when “I will not comply” was disparaged by some.

Under the Firearm Industry Responsibility Act (HB 218), gun manufacturers that engage in unsafe and unlawful marketing and sale will be held accountable for actions contributing to gun violence in Illinois communities. [More]
These alien freaks literally consider themselves the Keepers.
Next step: We force you to issue warnings.
And the effects on national publications will be nationwide, and not just the advertisements.
So: When does the “firearms industry” cut them off from sales and service?

Elizabeth Rochford, the judge who pushed Illinois’ “assault weapon” ban over the top, is a demonstrably allied with and beholden to the gun-grabbers and did not recuse herself. [More]
This is the real story, about in-your-face corrupt tyranny, deserving of screaming headlines.
Instead, not a single “#real reporter” working for the DSM (Duranty/Streicher Media) is reporting on this, and like so many stories of import to freedom, we have to learn about it from rights advocates followed by limited niche interests. Meanwhile, as planned and controlled, the general voting public remains blissfully ignorant of what’s being done to them by apparatchiks, deceivers, and those who pull their strings.
An honest “progressive” would object to this. Guess what it means that none has.
Free people cannot coexist with this.

Darren Bailey—a Republican who ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2022 and who is now running for Congress—threatened to end his own life if cops come to seize his assault rifles after the Illinois Supreme Court upheld the state’s assault weapons ban on Friday. [More]
That’s not what he said, Caitlan Cruz of Jezebel and Yahoo! News, you liars.
That said, the guy needs to channel him some Patton.

ILLINOIS 5TH CIRCUIT COURT REVERSES,REMANDS FOID CARD CHALLENGE CASE [More]
That citizens have to go to court to get an opinion on whether prior restraints and permits imposed on fundamental rights are constitutional illustrates how in-your-face evil disarmament scams and those behind them are. An how cud-chewingly stupid those who support them are…
Tangentially Related UPDATE

It’s tough enough with domestic “Only Ones” inclined to obey any orders without questioning their lawfulness. What kind of restraint can we expect from mercenaries who do not come from a Bill of Rights culture, but from despotic and impoverished areas of the world where a totalitarian government dictates what privileges it will recognize and what obedience it demands?

This should end well.
On the plus side, the chances of any of this impacting Judge Mary Jane up close and personal are probably very small.
