Just Like the Founders Intended

U.S.D.C. Judge Strikes Down Missouri’s ‘Second Amendment Preservation Act’ as Unconstitutional [More]

And just look at all those “staunch supporters of the Second Amendment” who voted to confirm him!

Funny: Nothing about Democrat cities and states refusing to cooperate with ICE…

Swamp Things

Senate Republicans Cave To Dem Propaganda About J6 Tapes [More]

And all the usual “leadership” suspects:

You gotta wonder, does someone have Dolly pix or are they just that corrupt? Or both?

They’re so entrenched they are bound and determined to side with the Democrats to sabotage “the Deplorables” and keep their places at the trough.

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

If it’s any consolation, Whoopi Goldberg agrees with them.

Biased Ruling Supporting Semiauto Ban Enabled by Sham Confirmations

Who but someone willfully deluding herself, a liar, or both, would deliberately ignore that the militia is comprised of citizens “capable of acting in concert for the common defense [and] bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time”? Its function was — and still is — to field citizen soldiers. And these citizens bore arms that were suitable for that purpose, “ordinary military equipment” intended to be taken into “common defense” battles. The militia did not assemble on the green bearing torches and pitchforks. They came with the intent to match and best a professional military threat. [More]

And worst of all, this robed … thing … was confirmed by a Republican majority Senate.

Playing to the Crowd

Alabama congressman’s bill would make AR-15 ‘the National Gun of America’ [More]

He knows it doesn’t have a chance in hell with a Democrat Senate and Biden, so forgive me if this feels like a self-serving and disingenuously patronizing headline ploy, which is unfortunate because it detracts from an otherwise pretty good record on RKBA and on the greatest political threat against it.

‘Bipartisan’ Gun Controller Fitzpatrick Shows Why Being “Republican’ is Not Enough

And based on supporting candidates like party switch-hitter Arlen Specter, Pat Toomey, Tom Ridge, and Brian Fitzpatrick, a critical mass of Pennsylvania Republicans is demonstrably willing to throw gun owners under the bus in exchange for the false promise of “less government.” They’re the useful idiot “bourgeoisie” the Democratic Socialists are counting on being asleep. This also explains why disarming them is such a priority. [More]

With “Republicans” like Fitzpatrick, who needs Democrats?

Pander Much?

U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) led a group of 25 additional Senate colleagues in reintroducing the Hearing Protection Act (HPA). The HPA, S. 401, would reclassify suppressors to regulate them like a regular firearm. The measure would benefit Idaho’s recreational gun users and provide them better access to hearing protection equipment. [More]

Why? Where were you guys when you were the majority?

UPDATE

Figures NSSF “proudly welcomes” it.

And Thank You for Your Service

A bill to prohibit the Department of Veterans Affairs from sending information on veterans or (beneficiaries) who are assisted by a fiduciary to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) list without a judicial ruling that they are a danger to themselves or others was reintroduced Feb. 2 in Congress. [More]

Funny, how there’s not a Democrat in the bunch

Pinning Down the Pinups

Why Some Members of Congress Are Wearing AR-15 Assault Rifle Pins [More]

Because theatrical gestures are accepted by shallow thinkers as substitutes for meaningful actions?

Forgive me if I read the name “George Santos” and wonder if self-serving motives trump sincerity and why anyone should believe a chronic and habitual liar.

And forgive me if I wonder why Rep. Anna Paulina Luna didn’t see fit to even mention the right to keep and bear arms in her campaign platform.

Look At Us, Everybody! We’re Posturing!

U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Bill Hagerty (R-TN), along with 43 of their Senate colleagues, today introduced the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, which would allow individuals with concealed carry privileges in their home state to exercise those rights in any other state that allows concealed carry, while still abiding by that state’s laws [More]

Yeah, well where the hell were the Republicans when there was a chance to actually pass it?

Much Ado About Nothing

This bill removes short-barreled rifles (barrels of less than 16 inches in length) from the definition of firearms for purposes of the National Firearms Act. [More]

Here’s a truth about every single “pro-gun” bill we see coming out of the House that we then see so many gun owners getting excited about: Without a Senate Republican majority and either a Republican president or enough votes to override a veto, they’ll all go nowhere.

And even so, that makes some big assumptions.

We can appreciate the sentiment, but I’d appreciate it more if they’d acted like this whenever they’ve been in a position to make it so.
