Can’t Have THAT…

Mayor’s proposed gun control ordinance passes Public Safety and Criminal Justice Committee [More]
They didn’t want him to be the only one getting his name in the paper.
And that’s as far as it will get.

Hogsett plans to go before the City-County Council and propose a ban on semi-automatic weapons and ending permitless carry in Indianapolis. [More]
No doubt inspired by last month’s non-bloodbath, where almost 80,000 gun owners proved that being simultaneously armed and peaceable is no problem for anyone smarter and more moral than a Hogsett supporter.

Relaxed Weekend at Indy
I’m not going to be doing a larger write-up– I had hoped to do a poll there, but soon decided that to have a plan and to make it happen can be two very different things, so settled on just enjoying myself. As such, really, I got nothin’, except a couple of pictures I want to share and comment on.
On the way to the Convention Center from where we parked, I couldn’t help but notice a sign prominently placed in front of the State House, and wondered if it was for the “benefit” of visiting NRA members:
I hope having both feet on the corner of the campus wasn’t a problem…
I wouldn’t mind the handful of ignoramuses if they weren’t so obnoxious about it. These people really are loudmouthed pinheads.
I got there the day after but understand they played Lee Greenwood at the main event.
This exhibit caught my eye because of the pistol brace/SBR brouhaha. Anybody know if there were earlier attempts at attachable stocks? I’m thinking Bruen/historical understanding here…
I also attended an ILA politics workshop but found out once it started it was basically about Indiana permitless carry, so there was nothing new for me to cover there. And I only ran into a few people I knew so there’s nothing of substance to report there. (I did find out in a private conversation that one of the sidebar event speakers is in favor of background checks, but if I follow up on that one at all my personal ethics demand I do it in private.)
Anyway, I had a good time and walked away with one impression that actually left me hopeful: All those Americans and all those guns– trying to take them is a bigger task than the grabbers and their enforcers is up to. And the number of 30-somethings I saw leads me to believe that once they reach a certain age, enough Americans screw their heads on right and will be carrying the torch after us older gun owners no longer can.

Up in Smoke
More than 2,000 residents were told to evacuate Tuesday afternoon after a large fire broke out at a recycling plant in Indiana, sending plumes of black smoke into the sky. The fire broke out in the City of Richmond, which is about 70 miles east of Indianapolis and near Ohio’s western border. [More]
Right next to the interstate that people traveling from the east need to take to get to the NRA Annual Meeting…
Funny, how recycling for the environment just put all those toxic pollutants into the atmosphere. I can’t wait to see the eco-disasters once we’re all forced into electric cars.
