A Woman’s Prerogative

I figured out what her rage screaming reminded me of.

God help me, I’m agreeing with James Carville, just not for the same reasons. Funny, how leftists are allowed to get away with vulgar sexism that would cancel anyone else.

And sorry, Rep. Luna, why would a 2A stalwart offer aid and comfort to an enemy who wants to disarm us and not have their priorities questioned? Taking the win does not require further support.

This whole flap illustrates a key difference between ruthless Democrats playing to win and feckless Republicans dithering to look fair. The former are demanding Steven’s head. Where is the similar lynching party for serial turncoat Lisa Murkowski over the same offense?

I Got Them Stupid Party Blues

Ohio’s Senate has taken clear, decisive action on suppressor reform, but the House has not finished the job. Senate Bill 214 passed the Senate by a decisive 31–1 vote, yet months later, the bill remains stalled in the House Public Safety Committee. [More]

Way to douse fire in gun voter bellies before the midterms!

Catch-22

“Under current Ohio law, Ohioans wishing to own or use a short-barreled rifle, short-barreled shotgun or firearm suppressor must register those items with the federal government or face the risk of criminal prosecution. If that reflects the policy of this legislature, so be it….” [More]

The Ohio GOP is aware there are midterms coming up, right?

“So be it”…???

This Wilson character continues to impress me as being a lump.

Communism 101

Trump’s corporate stakes are a gift to the next Democratic president …The Trump administration has now announced or completed deals to take ownership stakes in 40 private companies… And yet congressional Republicans, who never miss a chance to tag Democrats as socialists and communists, have collectively done nothing to stop the Trump administration. [More]

What’s it called again when “the collective” controls the means of production…?

That certainly complicates my argument that it’s important to vote against socialists.

Relevant comment for 2A advocates to consider:

Can you trumpers imagine the US government owning 45% stock in all of the gun companies.

They’d sure cause more disruption than a handful of Marxist nuns.

More ‘Smart Politics,’ Death-Thirsting Republican Style

His Political Career Is OFFICIALLY OBLITERATED [Watch]

Completely out of touch with ” loony Heritage Americans,” Vivek Ramaswamy just blew up his campaign thinking an attack against Amy Acton by her scumbag, child-molesting, husband-enabling estranged mother was anything but a despicable idea that would backfire as soon as the history of monstrous victimization became known.

I guess JD doesn’t want to be president.

Casey Putsch weighs in and says he’ll vote for Amy.

I’m trying to reconcile that with this:

Casey Putsch for Ohio Governor: The Real Deal When It Comes to Guns

We know what Amy will try to do on guns: You don’t get Everytown’s “Gun Sense Voter” endorsement unless you’re a rabid prohibitionist, and that doesn’t add up to her “lead[ing] Ohio with compassion for everybody and our future as normal people together.” And “On the Issues” says she “favors a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens.”

We know where that leads (unless you’re an idiot and/or embedded leftist).

I can understand sitting the race out– I’ve weighed the risks Vivek presents and frankly don’t see how I’ll feel good about my choice by either filling in the bubble or leaving it blank. In the end, th0ugh, he will have brought it all on himself.

I understand the enemy inside the gates is the more dangerous one, and nothing about the fecklessness of the Ohio Republican establishment surprises me. But I’m not seeing how endorsing an anti-gun / pro-illegal immigrant Democrat is the lesser of any evils.

Ralph Norman: ‘My family is not going to vote for Darline Graham’ [More]

No doubt about it, Darline is not a choice many of us would have made, but at least on guns she appears reliably managed, whereas opponent Annie Andrews will be a rabid grabber of the first order.

So, if not for personal sour grapes, why would a NAGR endorsee feel it necessary to make that known in a close race?

The Silence of the Vichycons

Grnc

We have an unfortunate trend this year in Republicans without gun-related voting records failing to return surveys, even in open seat races in the “tossup” category. If that applies to candidates in your district, contact them and ask why they failed to return GRNC’s survey despite having two opportunities to submit it. [More]

Way to stoke the fire in those gun owner bellies so they’re primed to vote, death-thirsters!

This is why they’re called the Stupid Party.

We’re the Only Ones Confiscatory Enough

A Michigan concealed pistol license holder filed a federal civil rights lawsuit today alleging that Livingston County sheriff’s deputies confiscated his lawfully possessed handgun because its serial number did not appear in a state database—and kept it without a firearm charge, a forfeiture proceeding, or a hearing. [More]

See for yourself.

Here’s “Republican” Sheriff Michael Murphy dictating the terms of surrender. Mike’s now running for State Senate and doesn’t even care enough about gun owners to answer NRA’s candidate questionnaire:

Mikemurphy

They’ve got a state in the grip of the Whitmer gun-grab regime, and this is the best the Michigan GOP can offer?

Ohio Republicans, They Thirst for Death

Elephant

Ohio’s Unfinished Suppressor Reform Leaves a State-Law Trap for Gun Owners [More]

Fresh on the heels of killing the Freedom to Carry Act. And not correcting state and county fair citizen disarmament edicts.

And they wonder why it looks like Sherrod Brown is polling ahead of 2A squish Jon Husted and Vivek isn’t running over Amy Acton.

“Hudson Antifa” is not an anomaly. The state is in danger of going blue– I think it will. And clueless Vichycons are doing nothing to put fire in gun owner bellies.

Ohio Gun Owners names names. And while it’s easy for some to dismiss them based hostility against the Dorr brothers, resist ad hominem dismissal for a moment and see for yourself if A ratings and endorsements are deserved.

The Replacement

North Carolina state Rep. Jennifer Balkcom has been named as the new GOP nominee for the state’s 11th Congressional District in the wake of incumbent Rep. Chuck Edwards’ announcement last week that he was nixing his re-election bid. [More]

I wanted to see how she was on guns and came across this piece of “real reporting”:

[State Rep. Tracy] Clark was thrilled when she saw the title of Republican Rep. Jennifer Balkcom’s bill: The Gun Violence Prevention Act. She was less enthused when she read it. The bill enhances sentences for possessing, brandishing or discharging a firearm while attempting or committing a felony. Several other bills under consideration this session also increase punishments for crimes involving guns… Research shows sentence enhancements don’t work to deter gun violence, said [Sam] Levy, the Everytown for Gun Safety policy expert. But talking about the need to be “tougher on criminals” and “lock them up” are common refrains from people who “don’t want to have real conversations” about the issue, he said.

So, according to gungrabber “experts,” malum prohibitum trumps malum in se, and locking up criminals doesn’t stop them from victimizing the public.

What mental contortions must you need to twist your brain into to swallow this crap?

To Be or Not to Be

Republicans see ‘scary’ lack of enthusiasm among core voters ahead of midterms [More]

OK, yeah, it’s WaPo, so there’s definitely some PSYOPS going on, but still: If we get our @$$es handed to us in November and also lose in ’28, look for all the advances in 2A to be reversed/overturned– and if Dems can then pack SCOTUS, that includes Heller, McDonald, Bruen, meaning instead of voting, which could not be easier, those still determined are gonna have to do it the hard way.

Republicans: They Thirst for Death

Man, that’s lot of Republicans…I guess– what is it, four Democrats? — makes it “bipartisan.”

Fortunately, it’s going nowhere (for now) with a “3% chance of being enacted.”

Elephant

I guess these guys haven’t heard about SCROTUS cementing “birthright citizenship” or paid any attention to who’s behind “Pathway to citizenship” for all… and it’s certainly not like any “gun rights leaders” intend to point out the dangers to 2A…

Don’t want to jeopardize those “A” ratings…

Dousing fire in bellies right before the midterms… genius!

Ramaswamy’s Boehner Problem

While looking for something else from the past, I ran across this:

Speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Boehner said, “I can tell you that this so-called America First Caucus is one of the nuttiest things I’ve ever seen.”

Compare to:

“The idea of a heritage American is about as loony as anything the woke left has actually put up.”

Un-American is no way to go through Republican politics.
