A Last Ditch Attempt

The grabbers fight like cowardly children, which I suppose is a good thing.

Man makes $21,000 selling 3D-printed guns during NY AG gun buyback program [More]

Does the state have the authority to ensure its “No Questions Asked” promise will keep the feds at bay on its “engaging in the business of dealing in firearms” prohibition for non-FFLs? Now that he’s on state and fed radar, I hope he gets qualified tax advice on how to report that.

Life Imitates Art

By not ruling on it the judge is putting us in limbo, making us choose between going to synagogue and leaving our pistols at home, or carrying a pistol but not going to pray. The law bans carrying a firearms in houses of worship and religious observation. This law is outrageous, and it makes us pick between engaging in religious observation or exercising our second amendment right. [More]

Making Jews choose between one or the other. Where have we seen that before?

The plea for help comes from these guys. And they ask to make checks payable to these guys.

I confess to not being familiar with these folks. In my copious free time, I’ll see what I can find out. In the meantime, if you have relevant knowledge, feel free to educate the rest of us in “Comments.”

If You See Something Say Something

Idiot troopers documented themselves manufacturing “assault weapons” while illicitly raiding my shop, violating 922(a)(1), NYPL 265.10 and 25 CFR § 11.440 fabricating evidence / we also got them and ATF on 210.35 sworn false statements to a grand jury in the 2nd as per the court’s dismissal decision [More]

So… if NY “Only Ones” AND ATF are involved, who should be told?

Lotta NRA “A”-rated Republicans here…

Maybe ask the chairman what he thinks…

That Door Won’t Swing Both Ways

[A] New York state official made a series of thinly veiled threats to regulated financial entities to pressure them to sever ties with a politically disfavored group [NRA]…[More]

I wonder what would happen to someone who made “thinly veiled threats” to tyrannical “New York state officials”…?

That state really is run by arrogant extortionist thugs who believe themselves immune to personal accountability.

Two Down, Eight to Go

Reversal is urgent because the Second Circuit’s opinion threatens basic First Amendment rights at a time when the First Amendment is under widespread attack. [More]

That’s what happens when tyrants have conditioned themselves to ignore the Second Amendment with impunity.

A Waiting Game

“New York has once again adopted a law we believe is unconstitutional, and we’re confident the federal court will bring an end to this nonsense. It’s time for lawmakers in Albany to stop trying to outsmart the U.S. Supreme Court.” [More]

I think what they’re doing is much more insidious than that.

They have tax cows they can milk for legal war chest funds, all the while depleting their victims’ resources to fight back. And they’re counting on extending things in the courts long enough for the Republicans to blow it yet again, so the Democrats can stack the court and reverse Bruen.

A Confession or a Boast?

And he didn’t fall on his knees and beg forgiveness?

UPDATE

I just got the related alert from SAF. It’s not on their News page at this posting, so I copied and pasted the email on my Placeholder site.

Seems the DA didn’t want to be left hanging on defending the indefensible.

A New York State of Mind

2 arrested in death of 11-year-old girl who was shot after buying milk at corner store… Two of the three suspects believed to be involved in the Jan. 16 shooting, an 18-year-old man and a 20-year-old man, were arrested … The third suspect, a 16-year-old, is known to police and is a resident at a juvenile facility in the New York City area, where he was placed by a family court judge … He was “on a furlough from the facility”… [More]

Tell me this isn’t the best argument you’ve ever heard for disarming you and me.

I Wouldn’t Pull That String if I Were You Guys

Top legal newspaper publishes opinion calling for open defiance of SCOTUS and abrogation of the RKBA [More]

Unfortunately, it’s behind a paywall:

But what little I can make out leads me to believe this is typical Opposite Day “progressive” lawless “law” from lefty lawyers who believe their ivory tower rises above it all.

An Informed Opinion

From David T. Hardy, via an email discussion concerning SCOTUS declining to hear a challenge to New York concealed carry laws:

It just declined to grant a stay pending appeal (or, to be more exact, refused to overrule the 2nd Circuit’s decision to grant a stay), which is not really refusing to hear the case. The two dissenters suggested they were ready to jump down the 2nd Circuit’s throat if it didn’t do the right thing.

The 2nd Circuit is going to look at this case very carefully….

Napoleon, when someone was going into detail on a particular general’s military virtues and why he deserved promotion, cut him off with “Enough, tell me one thing — is he lucky?” Meaning, I think, does he get results that no one expected. The attorney in the case, Steven Stamboulieh, appears to be very, very, lucky. He is someone to watch, now and ten years from now when we in the old guard are gone.

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?

Food for Thought

A restaurant diner legally in possession of a handgun watched the incident unfold, and intervened by drawing his weapon while giving Padron commands to stay on the ground and let go of the knife. [More]

All in Kathy Hochuls’ New York…

But wait a sec– we’ve been told gun owners are bloodthirsty white supremacists just waiting for someone to blast away and that those of us who haven’t killed anyone just aren’t murderers yet. So what’s this guy doing actually deterring violence?

Anybody know if Applebee’s has changed its policy? I haven’t had much incentive to go there and check for some time…
