Trump to NRA

As much as I criticize the guy and believe he specializes in self-aggrandizement over sincerity, I can’t argue that he has initiated unprecedented actions and more are on the way. All those actions will ultimately prove temporary and reversible if the Republicans can’t get their act together, and part of that problem is on us as gun owners, and how involved we’re willing to get pressing them to do the right thing.

And I gotta ask: Bob Barr?

Poison Ivey

After a violent year marked by multiple mass shootings in Alabama, Republican Gov. Kay Ivey and many lawmakers from both parties are backing a proposed ban on so-called Glock switches and other conversion devices that make semi-automatic weapons fire like machine guns. [More]

A Crisis of Faith

Trump Has ‘Lost Faith’ in N.R.A., Says Gun Group Official – In a new letter, an N.R.A. vice president said the troubled group needed to rebuild trust with Donald J. Trump and his inner circle. [More]

While I agree with him on William Brewer, there’s a saying about people in glass houses.

And speaking of rebuilding trust…

Are his expectations for Gun Owners for Trump that they will be a valued sounding board and advisory group to keep him from going off half-cocked and saying/doing more stupid sh!+, or will he expect to just summon a few to publicly kiss his ring once in a while and then brag about their access to the president?

Gun Group Watch

Will we see leadership on this?

I just checked the Twitter/X feeds for them and nada…

I wonder what they have to say about Bondi’s role in railroading George Zimmerman…

Commonsense Speech Safety Laws

Biden’s executive order targets modern manufacturing processes in ways that implicate the First Amendment. [More]

So if Democrats want to ban “misinformation” and now real information, what kind of information will still be “legal”?

The good thing is, the First Amendment says “Congress shall make no law…”

They’re not making it. The executive is!

A One in Five Million Shot

One murder with @ 5M members at the time? Is there a more peaceable population on the planet?

Gun Laws vs. Crime Rates in 2024

Almost daily, legislators propose new gun laws aimed at reducing crime rates. However, both new and existing laws are unlikely to impact crime significantly. With over 90 years of gun control legislation and crime data, it’s clear that these laws do little to curb criminality or save lives. [More]

“Gun Control” doesn’t work, at least for its stated justification.

Even NRA and NSSF-approved “gun control.”

Yeah, But What’s That Got to Do with Guns?

RINO Sellout Mitch McConnell Moves to Torpedo Election Integrity Efforts by Blocking SAVE Act In Upcoming Spending Bill – And Open Door to Illegals Voting in US Elections [More]

And if that’s not a “single issue” disqualifier, we can still see “assurances” like this:

MA Gun License Challenged

The Second Amendment Foundation and National Rifle Association have filed an amicus brief with the Massachusetts Supreme Court in support of a New Hampshire man who is challenging the Massachusetts permit law. [More]

Hey, waddyaknow? NRA shared credit!

When did they start doing that?
