magazine bans - The War on Guns

Counterpoint

SAF ATTORNEYS FILE REPLY BRIEF IN ILLINOIS GUN, MAGAZINE BAN CASE [More]

The grabbers with effectively unlimited resources keep filing crap they know is wrong just to keep depleting defender resources.

Goodbye Columbus

Columbus keeps violating Ohio law, says give up ‘large capacity’ magazines by July 1 [More]

There’s only one appropriate answer:

No. Your move.

Goddam treasonous and incompetent urban Democrats…

Rhyme and Reason

Joe Biden: “There is No Rationale For Assault Weapons and Magazines That Hold 50-70 Bullets” [More]

Therefore, the Secret Service will be giving up theirs immediately?

The National Association of Counties audience sure went wild. Why not ask your reps why none of them “Booed”?

‘There Can Be Only One’

“High-capacity magazines were designed for one purpose and one purpose only — high-capacity killing — and have been used in some of the deadliest mass shootings in America,” Menendez said in a statement. [More]

Is that why you oath-breaking scumbag treasonous, tyrannical POS Democrats demand your trigger-happy enforcers be the “Only Ones” having them?

Any Person

“Any person who violates the provisions of this section is guilty of a fourth degree felony.” [More]

“Any person” would seem to include any person traversing the state on th e se interstates.

But don’t worry. Any person will be protecte d a s a t r a v ers e r. Maybe.

For this and other “concessions” on illegitimate claims against our birthrights “we” accepted the “voice vote” Hughes Amendment…?

D o e s a n y p e r s o n doubt it will pass?

UPDATE

Gun and Magazine Ban Bills Scheduled for Committee Hearings [More]

NMSSA says “It is absolutely imperative that gun owners speak out on these bills.”

Unintended Consequences

[T]he Attorney General’s Office has filed suit against Federal Way Discount Guns claiming that they unlawfully sold high capacity magazines in violation of RCW 9.41.370. However, while this is certainly bad news for that business, did the Attorney General just hand the plaintiffs in Sullivan v. Ferguson and Brumback v. Ferguson, the very “standing” that the AG claimed that the plaintiff’s lacked? [Watch]

Be nice to think the grabbers screwed up and in doing so screwed themselves…

The Carrot

DEPARTMENT OF SAFETY AND HOMELAND SECURITY- OCTOBER 26, 2022 – State Announces High Capacity Magazine Buyback Events for Delaware Residents [More]

And if you’d rather not, they’ll be happy to give you the stick.

Mike would know what to do

Not Without a Fight

Gun shop, firearms owners challenge RI’s new high-capacity magazine ban in court [More]

Let’s hope they add plenty of “core purpose” to the standard “self-defense” and “takings” arguments.

HOW THINGS WORK AROUND HERE

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Anyone not happy with anything on this site at any time will get 100% of all money they paid to me refunded, no questions asked. (No gratuities solicited or accepted.)

Comment House Rules

Keep them on topic. Trying to hijack threads really grinds my gears. No spam.
I moderate them so I’ll get to them when I can.
No threats against anyone except me. No fights–this is my place and if things get ugly, I treat unruly visitors the same way as I would in my home. Do not feed trolls–I’ll take out the trash.
Try to keep it clean.
I’m the final arbiter. If you don’t like the rules, start your own damn blog.

WarOnGuns Correspondents

Story tips received via email and social media messages will be credited. Just let me know how you want to be recognized (real name, first name/last initial, or screen name.)

Link Policy

I maintained a WogRoll at the old Blogspot place predicated on reciprocity with like-minded RKBA-related sites. Truth be told, I never got much in terms of site visits to make the effort worth the time. I may try to do something again in the future, but for now, my hands are more than full trying to get a new site started.

Advertising Disclosure

This is a placeholder for now because I have not done ads on the old blog for years. In case I ever start them up here, this will be the policy in effect: The FTC has some fool nonsense rules about ads on blogs or some such and presumes authority over the First Amendment to compel the unfunded mandate that we who earn ad revenues make some kind of disclosure so you don’t think we’re getting paid to say nice things about people or God knows what, meaning they must think you’re stupid, too. I have had a few ads on the old site in the past and may do so again if I think it’s worth a try. Combined, I probably couldn’t buy a box of good cigars each year, let alone a bottle of George T. Stagg, and that is somehow supposed to compromise my morality to force me to say nice things about products and services I don’t mean simply in exchange for filthy lucre. If you believe that, leave now–you’re not smart enough to be here. Bottom line, aside from welcoming a sponsor, I will do no posts related to their products or services, or reviews of what they offer without complete disclosure.

About “The Only Ones”

So named from a comment by DEA agent Lee Paige, who told a classroom full of kids he was “the only one” qualified to be armed and then promptly shot himself in the foot, the purpose of this feature has never been to bash cops. The only reason I do this is to amass a credible body of evidence to present when those who would deny our right to keep and bear arms use the argument that only government enforcers are professional and trained enough to do so safely and responsibly. And it’s also used to illustrate when those of official status, rank, or privilege, both in law enforcement and in some other government position, get special breaks not available to we commoners, particularly (but not exclusively) when they’re involved in gun-related incidents.
