Beria Trap*

Someone does not need a license to carry, according to the law, “in his place of abode or fixed place of business.” Yakaitis owned the home Powanda attempted to burglarize. The catch: He didn’t live there—it reportedly had no tenants at the time of the crime—opening a window for law enforcement to charge him essentially on a technicality. [More]

It’s awful hard to make the swine harassing him live in infamy if we’re not told his name.

An Age-Old Question

The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania has handed a significant victory to the Second Amendment Foundation and young adults in the 18-20-year age group, allowing them to apply for concealed carry licenses in the state, while enjoining the state from arresting any law-abiding citizens in that age group for openly carrying firearms during a state of emergency. [More]

If we’re going to go with text, history, and tradition, Pennsylvanian Tench Coxe would have gone down to 16… and no permit needed.

Lest Ye Be Judged

Pennsylvania judge Sonya McKnight charged after allegedly shooting ex-boyfriend in head as he slept [More]

A Democrat, naturally.

And it’s not the first time:

Judge is on leave pending investigation into shooting of estranged husband

Hey, she said she advocates for second chances

It’s not like the voters didn’t know better, as is so often the case with who they elect anyway for obvious reasons.

McKnight is accused of using her position to interfere with police during a Feb. 2020 traffic stop involving her son in Harrisburg…McKnight also allegedly entered Baltimore’s vehicle without permission and removed a bottle of pills one of the officers had discovered and set aside to examine later, investigators claim. Baltimore and McKnight claimed the pills were for Baltimore’s high blood pressure. But by taking the bottle, McKnight ensured police did not have the chance to open it and examine its contents, the complaint states.

Now all you racists get your knees off her neck!

We’re the Only Ones Breaking Up Enough

She was his ex? He was trying to commit her?

Shades of cops being able to get red flag OKs! And they charged Mr. Clean with strangulation and official oppression?

Hollywood three-point landing tropes aside, you for the most part need a gun ladies, if you hope to have any chance against someone with roughly twice your upper body strength. And in this meathead’s case, it looks like more than that.

Blue-Skying

If … we trust you enough to drive a motor vehicle and register your driver’s license right and we’re going to opt you in to be a voter why not also opt these people in to carry guns under ccw permitting system so they get their own card that they can use across the country in relevant states that recognize through the reciprocity system those Concealed Carry Permits that are in your wallet…? [Watch]

It’s an interesting and creative thought but it’s dependent on reversing Democrat majorities and even then would be tied up in the courts for years waiting for a Supreme Court of as yet unknown composition to first agree to hear a case and then rule favorably on it.

Besides, reciprocity becomes a moot point as citizens, per SCOTUS in Dred Scott, have “the right to … keep and carry arms wherever they went.”

That and it’s hard to see how having more people voting favors anyone but ignorance-dependent Democrats. Me, I think Gov. Shapiro just signed the death warrant for PA Republican representation.

And based on his subversive gun betrayals, I think it’s deliberate sabotage by an embedded enemy.

Monster Makers Chaining Their Creations

The US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit heard oral arguments about whether a Pennsylvania law banning 18-20 year olds from having firearms in public when a government declares an emergency violates the 2nd Amendment. [Watch]

At the very least, it violates U.S. Code.

You have to wonder what kind of treasonous, mad Democrat would demand and defend this, and the answer is the same kind whose policies have made the type of 18 -20-year-olds making daily headlines in Philadelphia inevitable.

All an Act

AN ACT Amending Title 18 (Crimes and Offenses) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in firearms and other dangerous articles, providing for encoded ammunition, imposing duties on manufacturers, sellers and owners of ammunition, providing for the powers and duties of the Commissioner of Pennsylvania State Police and the Secretary of Revenue, establishing the encoded ammunition database and the Encoded Ammunition Database Fund, imposing an encoded ammunition database tax and imposing penalties. [More]

And subversive Democrats pull this sh!+ with straight faces and absolutely no repercussions — aside from being further rewarded with power over the lives of people who are not stupid enough to vote for them.

The ‘Man’ Who Would Control YOU

A Delaware County Democratic lawmaker, who has been the target of accusations of sexual harassment by at least three individuals, announced Wednesday he is resigning from his seat in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. [More]

Oh no! Now, who’s going to “fight for common-sense solutions to keep our families safe, from universal background checks to bans on bump stocks, high capacity magazines, and assault weapons”?

What is it with people who can’t (or won’t) control themselves being so hopped up on controlling the rest of us? And with the cud-chewers who gush over him?

Run away, motherf****r!

Coward!

The Re-Reenactment

A new rule in Pennsylvania that will require re-enactors of a 1763 battle to lay down their weapons is drawing fire from a local historical society, the latest skirmish in the re-enactment world, which has been diminishing as hobbyists get older and sensitivities about restaging historical events have grown. [More]

A plan comes together.

If I may make a suggestion:

Give ’em walkie talkies!

Adventures in Baselessness

Physical ballots and v-drives were reportedly taken to a closed building without observers present and kept there for six hours before being taken to the counting center. This would shatter the chain of custody along with breaking the law that the ballots go directly to the counting center. The plaintiffs say they can further show the county mailed official ballots to unverified voters and deleted at least 2,778 records of requests for mail-in ballots. [More]

Damn deniers.

Adventures in Baselessness

“The Pennsylvania county boards of elections are hereby ORDERED to refrain from counting any absentee and mail-in ballots received for the November 8, 2022 general election that are contained in undated or incorrectly dated outer envelopes.” [More]

What if the problem is what’s inside the envelopes? And funny how a judge rules so often tracks with who a judge owes…

This ain’t over by a long shot.

A Razor Sense Candidate

The injury happened when a resident tried to remove a sign for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Josh Shapiro that had been placed without permission, police said Sunday. The blades, which were attached “around the perimeter of the sign” were “designed to inflict punishment on anyone who attempted to remove the sign,” police said.  [More]

Speaking of complete @$$hole signs

So Much for ‘Progressive’ Morals and Values

“At this point in time, it’s a question of where your morals lie and what your values are,” Carolyn said on midterm election voting decisions. She said she is happy Fetterman decided to debate Oz and hopes his debate performance will swing undecided voters. “No matter whether he gets into the Senate — and hopefully doesn’t, but dies the next day or not — I would rather have him advocating for a single day for the things that I believe in than voting for someone who may, you know, live forever but does not value the things that I do,” she said. [More]

“Liberal” Carolyn doesn’t care that her advocate-for-a-day chases down unarmed black joggers with a shotgun.

Once you’re part of the cult, no mere truth is going to shake your faith.

Who’s Minding the Store?

Mastriano will make Pennsylvania a “2nd Amendment Sanctuary,” where our rights will be protected against misguided federal bureaucrats that want to disarm law-abiding citizens. Mastriano will work with the legislature to make PA a safe, constitutional carry state [More]

Vs.

Josh Shapiro has committed to governing with gun sense as a priority. [More]

So what are Pennsylvania voters setting to do?

Is now the time for “the fastest growing pro-gun organization in Pennsylvania’s” Facebook page to have not had an update post for years? And their last blog post was in 2010? Especially considering their last mention in the news feed was in January, and before that 2018…

My guess is there are a lot more gun owners in Pennsylvania than the 15K that “follow” GOA-PA on Facebook.

Where’s the organization and where’s the support for organizations? Or should we just get used to saying “Governor Shapiro” and “Senator Fetterman”?

The Wait is Over?

… Commonwealth Court Judge Patricia McCullough issued a preliminary injunction against the Pennsylvania State Police in Firearm Owners Against Crime – Institute for Legal, Legislative and Educational Action, et al. v. PSP Commissioner Evanchick, in relation to its non-compliance with 18 Pa.C.S. 6111.1, by failing to provide instantaneous or otherwise immediate responses to firearm background checks. [More]

Guy looks like more than his hat is too tight

You gotta wonder what kind of monkey wrenches the state will try to throw into the works before September 12 and what kind of surprises they have planned for after…
