Just When You Thought It Was Safe to Get Back in the Water

Supreme Court rejects New York gun retailers’ bid to block new concealed carry laws [More]

How the same court that ruled on Bruen could refuse to block this has Yul baffled.

I’m not sure it’s the “major blow” this is being presented as, and it could be there’s some 3D chess going on by Thomas and some others to allow lower court challenges to continue, but Lord knows I’ve been dead wrong in trying to figure out what it takes to acknowledge “shall not be infringed” before.

Maybe somebody’s got pictures?

No Wonder They Made it a ‘Sensitive Area’

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is offering a sweetheart plea deal to a suspect charged in the brutal anti-Semitic beating of a Jewish man in Midtown, prosecutors confirmed. [More]

64/26 makes it awful hard for me to get worked up.

And forgive me for wondering if Waseem Awawdeh, Mahmoud Musa, Faisal Elezzi, and Mohammed Othman are really most accurately described as “Staten Island men” or if a better grouping might be under “rigorous.”

I Like to Be in America, O.K. By Me in America, Everything Free in America

You’re Welcome: Illegals in NYC Tossing Free Food [More]

Hold our cervezas.

Building an entitled government-dependent Democrat voter base one in-your-face outrage at a time.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue”. And I have that on good authority.

If at First You Don’t Succeed

It looks like Roxanne Persaud is trying to resurrect her bill to limit ammunition for “assault weapons.” (There’s nothing I could find about this yet on her website or social media feeds, or the NY State Senate’s legislative search feature.)

Remember when she tried in 2015 for “rational ammunition control”– with Tucker pal Eric Adams at her side raving about “blood-soaked carnage” and “When terrorists seek – and succeed – to take advantage of our loose laws to murder innocent people”? And how, after attempting to pass an edict so enforcers could use up to lethal force to eviscerate the right to arms that she played the victim and called NRA’s announcement picture (above) a threat proving NRA is dangerous and violent?

That’s just what Americans who won’t surrender their birthright need– a refugee from Guyana dictating to them what they may and may not own. I wonder how her native land’s prohibition on homosexuals acts would play with her current constituents — and if she’s so damn “progressive,” why she’s not leading the charge for reforms there?

UPDATE

Senate Bill S929
2023-2024 Legislative Session
Relates to the sale of ammunition for assault weapons [More]

With Friends Like These

The indictment against Cory Davis, 41, was unsealed Monday, weeks after he sent a photo of his young son holding two of the weapons to a group chat with family and friends on Nov. 7, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office said. The photo alarmed one of the recipients, who notified the NYPD, and sent it the snap, prosecutors said. [More]

So they got a man who’s an absolute danger to no one “off the streets”…

I’ll bet whoever the Nazi snitch turns out to be was pleasant Thanksgiving company. One can only hope they are outed and shunned, for starters…

Round ’em Up First, Due Process Later

Mayor Adams directs NYPD, first responders to involuntarily take mentally ill to hospitals [More]

Just think of the “progressive” possibilities… Hey, don’t overlook the “hater loophole”!

Funny thing about once you start turning a blind eye to due process…

New York, New York, It’s a Wonderful Town

NYC bill preventing landlords from performing criminal background checks gains traction – New York City Mayor Eric Adams has suggested he supports the legislation [More]

Seeing as how the vast majority of people this will affect vote Democrat, I say go for it. Maybe force landlords to offer preferential discounts to them because they’ve been socially disenfranchised…

How do you like that Eric now, Tucker?

A Matter of Priorities

A gang that preys on gay men at Hell’s Kitchen nightclubs is suspected of killing at least two victims and of drugging and robbing more than a dozen other men — but Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is impeding the investigation, law enforcement sources say. [More]

I trust no one expects him to choose between which group it’s more politically advantageous for Democrats to pander to or ignore…

Nothing a Cage Won’t Stop

Bronx man who smashed up Manhattan McDonald’s with ax is busted again [More]

He can’t be trusted with an ax… he can’t be trusted with a can of spray paint… he can’t be trusted with somebody else’s bicycle… it’s almost like there’s a lesson to be learned here that society can’t quite (or doesn’t want to) put its finger on…
