Legislation blocks ‘red flag laws’ in Montana [More]
What…? They’re actually going to wait until a citizen is charged with a crime, tried, and convicted before they punish him…?
Why, that’s… that’s unDemocratic!!!

Notes from the Resistance
Drawing a clear line in the sand on gun rights, the Texas Senate has passed a bill that would make it illegal for state or local officials to enforce federal red flag laws, going so far as to criminalize cooperation with such orders. [More]
Now pass one authorizing the arrest of federal enforcers.

A Michigan court may issue an extreme risk protection order “ex parte” – without written or oral notice to the subject of the order or an opportunity to respond to the allegations. If the petitioner is a law enforcement officer, he or she may apply for an immediate emergency order “verbally over the telephone,” without a written petition, and the judge or magistrate may issue the order based solely on that request. [More]
So… does this mean Carita’s a liar…?
So, when he designed his training, he emphasized due process protections embedded in these laws: Gun owners get ample notice about the petition, and they have the right to defend themselves in court through multiple hearings. [More]
But their guns are taken before anything’s proven, right?
Figures this Carita character works with 97Percent.

H.R.223 – Preventing Unjust Red Flag Laws Act of 2025 [More]
Change of heart, Dan?
Prognosis 1% chance of being enacted
That and define “unjust.” Until there’s a guilty verdict, we’re all supposed to be presumed innocent.
It’s almost like he’s hoping this will make gun owners think he’s our champion.
I continue to be unimpressed by this man.

I especially like the way they credit “then-Governor Rick Scott and a Republican dominated legislature” to get the ball rolling for the rest of the country.

Three new gun control bills have been filed, including one of the bills we have been anticipating. First, SB279, a ban on the sale or transfer of semiautomatic rifles was filed today… Second, SB244, a ban on minors possessing firearms with exemptions was filed… HB12, the expansion of New Mexico’s “red-flag” gun confiscation law will be heard in the House Judiciary Committee. [More]
And naturally, Democrats didn’t want to talk about permitless carry…
In budget address, Gov. Mills takes swipe at gun safety citizen initiative [More]
Before celebrating this as a Road to Damascus conversion, keep in mind her preferred due process violation for disarming citizens relies on “Only Ones” (yellow flag) not family members (red flag). What struck me more than that:
Maine is the only state to have a yellow flag law, which Mills helped draft with help from the pro-gun Sportsmans Alliance of Maine.

Today in the House Consumer and Public Affairs Committee, HB12 passed on a party-line vote. The bill would expand New Mexico’s “red-flag” gun confiscation law… On Thursday 1/30, HB38 will be heard in Room 317 at 1:30pm (or later). The bill would make it a felony to own a “weapon conversion device”… Additionally, HB39, the expansion of juvenile records in NICS will also be heard… [More]
All I can suggest is for NM gun owners to be informed and involved.
Missouri lawmaker proposes new ‘anti-red flag’ gun bill [More]

Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), together with the Tennessee Firearms Association, today filed a lawsuit in Shelby County, Tennessee against the City of Memphis’ newly adopted gun control ordinances, which were passed by voters in direct opposition to the state’s robust preemption law. [More]
The city has real problems and the idiot Democrats in charge squander resources on diktats they know are illegal.
How is that not actionable malfeasance?
A public servant commits an offense who, with intent to obtain a benefit or to harm another, intentionally or knowingly:
(1) Commits an act relating to the public servant’s office or employment that constitutes an unauthorized exercise of official power;
(2) Commits an act under color of office or employment that exceeds the public servant’s official power;
It’s not enough to have to expend resources to kick these bastards’ crap back at them after months and years of court delays. Start making them personally accountable.
Why not follow up this preemptive strike with carpet bombing?
Oh, wait… the Bill Lee administration…

Think you support universal background checks, red flag laws? Let’s test that [More]
He outlines three scenarios and makes a great case.
But the ones who need to hear his message be like:

Gillibrand vs. Sapraicone: The Race for US Senate forum [Watch]
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?
A bill introduced after a mass shooting in Maine would require the Army to use state crisis intervention laws to remove the weapons of a service member who is deemed to be a serious threat to themselves or others, U.S. Sen. Susan Collins, the bill’s sponsor, said Monday. [More]
“Deemed” how? What part does due process play?
And if he’s a “serious threat,” will he still have physical access to the public?
And yeah, every time you donate through WinRed, the Vichycons get their cut.

Of course they’re talking about taking your guns.
The psy ops is in full force, with “conservative” Frank Luntz telling lefty media that Trump’s toast. Admittedly, the guy let himself get rattled and, as in 2020, the election is his to blow, but the real focus on behavior ought to be on someone who can lie so seamlessly and with a smile, using a mask of compassion and concern to hide malevolent intent.
There’s something deeply wrong with a person who can do that.
[Via Jess]
She’ll ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, require universal background checks, and support red flag laws that keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people. [More]
Well, she can try.
Conflicted on voting? I get it.
Think of it as any chair in a bar fight.

He added that red flag laws, “are in place for a reason.” [More]
To show everyone how utterly ineffectual they are…?
