Notes from the Resistance
And his excuse for going after Fleet Farm is that its retail employees can’t do the impossible and read the hearts and minds of customers, and that it is therefore responsible for not just their criminal actions, but for the subsequent actions of those they deal with. [More]
A commie gun-grabber commits lawfare against a deep pockets victim because he can. Just like the Founders intended, right?
There’s one other disqualifier though that should clear up ATF Director Steve Dettelbach’s inability to define what an “assault weapon” is, itself reminiscent of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson taking a pass on defining “woman.” He should have just said “A Marlin 70620 Model 60 .22 Long Rifle.” [More]
Man, they’re letting anything be a “weapon of war” these days…
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

The County Attorney and law enforcement have charged Walker with violating MN 609.667 because his privately made firearms do not have serial numbers on them – despite not being required under federal law – and, in our opinion, not needed under Minnesota statutes. The judge in the case has disagreed. [More]
His mother has started a legal defense fund.

I’d love to tear into this but my plate is full and it will be a few days–hopefully, someone will be able to give us more information before then, and maybe convince one of the gun groups to provide legal assistance.

Regardless of the recent changes in Minnesota law related to marijuana, an individual who is a current user of marijuana is prohibited from shipping, transporting, receiving, or possessing firearms or ammunition. [More]
It’s not like the prohibition affects anyone important.
Besides, Fudd Sense Candidate Tim Walz is fine with that.

As a veteran, gun-owner, hunter, and dad, I know that basic gun safety isn’t a threat to the Second Amendment. [More]
No, of course not. Basic gun safety is essential to it.
But that’s not really what you’re talking about, is it?
Be vewy, vewy quiet… I’m infwinging wights… Hehhehhehhehheh…
You have to wonder what kind of gun owner would be stupid enough to fall for this.
Or go so far as to tell people he’s “a true and constant friend.”
“I know some of the opponents have said will this stop and end all gun violence? It will not,” said Rep. Cedrick Frazier, DFL-New Hope of the red flag language. “But it is a tool that can prevent, and it is a tool that if it saves 10 lives, if it saves one life, we have done a job that needs to be done.” [More]
If that’s the threshold, can trampolines be far behind?
And notice how the “Authorized Journalists” obligingly advance suspension of due process as one of “public safety”? I wonder how many other rights we could abrogate that could “save one life”…?
“It is disappointing that Attorney General Ellison filed his complaint without ever once talking to us… It’s also worth noting that … we were told by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms that our team members had ‘done nothing wrong’ and had complied with all applicable gun laws.” [More]
Yeah, but Ellison’s communist agenda never let a little thing like innocence slow it down…

[H]ere are the names of the 47 people charged in this criminal scheme…[More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority…

The State of Minnesota also filed its own motion for summary judgment, which … went on to say … that “18-20 year old women are also not covered by the plain text of the Second Amendment.” [More]
I once wrote a speculative article (way pre-Heller) I can’t find now that basically made the case that the only women mentioned in U.S. Code are “female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.” My intent was to set up a staged lawsuit with a (friendly) FFL refusing to sell a gun to a (friendly) woman and having it overturned on equal protection grounds.
I wonder if the statute now needs to be amended to add the words “self-identified”…
