Notes from the Resistance
A suburban New York police department routinely violated residents’ civil rights, including making illegal arrests and using unnecessary strip and cavity searches, according to a new U.S. Department of Justice report. [More]
Can we presume their bodycams weren’t the only things turned on?
And the badged @$$holes who lied were only docked and aren’t in jail? Why do I wonder if one of them called “Riccola” during the cavity search?

And note the Constitution doesn’t just say that executive officers have to take the oath—it says they are “BOUND” by it. That means once she volitionally “unbinds” herself, she’s in violation of a non-negotiable requirement and must be removed from office. [More]
To steal a line from Lex Luthor about Otis: “It’s amazing that brain can generate enough power to keep those legs moving.”
A staffer for a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives was arrested at the Capitol on Monday when a regular security check turned up ammunition in his bag, the Capitol Police said in a statement. The police identified the staffer as Michael Hopkins, who works for Representative Joe Morelle… [More]
Do as we say, not as we do. It’s only “commonsense.”

In response to President-elect Trump’s immigration plans, some New York Democratic legislators are considering secession from the United States. State Senator Liz Krueger has proposed the idea of New York becoming a new province of Canada, arguing that this move could alleviate Canada’s burden of enforcing illegal border crossings. “It’s not unreasonable to think outside of the box,” said Krueger.

Right, reject every terrible sacrifice that made American unique and great, and return to the king. Funny, how an Opposite Day “progressive” wants to return to the system that was rejected two-and-a-half centuries ago.
There may be unintended consequences for her in this. I’ll do an article for next week to explain.
A federal judge has ruled that a constitutional challenge to New York state’s ban on selling bulletproof vests to civilians can move forward. The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge John Sinatra Jr. rejected a motion from state Attorney General Letitia James and other New York officials to dismiss a challenge, ruling the plaintiffs have standing to sue the state over the restrictions.

“Commonsense gun safety law advocate” Letitia not only wants to disarm you, she wants her shock troops to be able to more easily kill you with their “weapons of war.”

Yet I’ll bet they overwhelmingly vote Democrat.
The face diapers work as well as his “gun laws.” How’d they let the one guy in without one?
Let’s be clear. Allowing Trump to hold an event at MSG is equivalent to the infamous Nazis rally at Madison Square Garden on February 20, 1939 [More]
That may be you he’s talking about.
Solid blue district Democrats don’t even try to hide their Antifa affinities.
Or that they want your guns.

Great narrative talking point PR release masked as “news,” “real reporter” Jamie Deline! And nice trick burying the tepid non-rebuttal at the very end to make it seem like both sides weighed in.
Well, you can pay the rent this month, but I really didn’t see anything here that Gemini or Chat GPT couldn’t do cheaper.
A federal district court judge in New York has ruled that the state’s restriction against concealed carry on private property open to the public is unconstitutional, handing a victory to the Second Amendment Foundation in a case known as Christian v. James. [More]
Now what will the appeals court say?

So we could get a racist gun-grabbing Democrat instead of a racist gun-grabbing Republican?
Shoemaker submitted his original response to the complaint on Sept. 18, including a defense reading: “There was and will be no Constitutional violation in enforcing the statute because the phrase ‘bear arms’ is a 1791-era idiom referring to military or militia service. Plaintiffs have failed to plead their involvement in a militia.” [More]
He “loves history“? You can’t prove it by this.
This is the quality of moron presuming to detemine your rights in New York? What repercussions will this douche suffer?
Looks like the county prosecutor is just as big of an @$$hole.
To those praising the “Only One” for “deescalation,” this was elitism writ large. He knew who she was and who she knows. Imagine what he would have done to her if she weren’t the DA, that is, to you and me, for the same behavior.
All she had to do was “apologize,” and she’s back to having the uniforms put you and me behind bars for claiming our rights.

So. Mike is for “red flag laws and background checks”?
Then why should I believe someone who doesn’t understand the Second Amendment won’t betray us on semiautos the first chance he gets to distance himself from another “gun-free zone” exploitation?
She has such a huge lead anyway, why should the gun owners in her district who aren’t Fudds bust their humps on a losing battle to push for a betrayer with an (R) after his name, and what message would that send the GOP on acceptable candidates?
Unlike FOIA requests, which can ask for records, the committee can ask questions and has subpoena power to cut through to the chase and get them answered. [More]
Getting a simple question answered shouldn’t take an act of Congress, presuming House Oversight Republicans will act…
“No one in Brooklyn, New York or America is safe until we get weapons of war off our streets. America cannot be the best version of herself until we crush the scourge of gun violence once and for all.” [More]
It might work better if we got criminal constituents of Democrats off the street.
Interesting description by the way. All the suspect has to do is change his clothes and he could be anybody.

George Latimer defeats House ‘squad’ member Jamaal Bowman in historic New York Democratic primary [More]
I see some “gunfluencers” treating this as a good thing. It’s not.
George is every bit the enemy, and with the perception that he’s “moderate,” he’ll be more effective at passing citizen disarmament mandates than the radical moron he’s sidelining.

“We need to revolutionize the way we look at guns, like what we did with cigarettes … It used to be that smoking was a glamour symbol—cool, sexy, macho. Now it is dirty, deadly—and banned.”
Is there anything in the law that prohibits posting this right next to it?

That’s not the parents’ job…?
It’s instructive to see what else doesn’t require parental cognizance:
Parents—once viewed as the natural authority figures in their children’s lives—now find themselves largely spectators: locked out, lied to, and gaslit in a national effort to secretly gender-transition children in public schools behind their parents’ backs.
When Democrats say “For the children,” watch out …
“Guilty” [More]
What a load.
Far from over…
Then again, the thought strikes by all this piling on, they’re trying to kill a man his age with stress.
As of now, he’s a “prohibited person.” No word (I’ve found) yet on whether his reputed NYC concealed carry license has been revoked with orders to surrender his guns.
