…Congress’ taxing power cannot be used to support the NFA since the tax for suppressors and short-barreled firearms was eliminated in the One Big Beautiful Bill. Eliminating that tax, therefore, no longer justifying Congress’ taxing power under the NFA. [More]
As if the Framers would have considered any part of the NFA to be a legitimate power of Congress, so yeah, deck chairs on the Titanic, but I you gotta start somewhere.

But…but…but doesn’t the fact that he’s “a Cuban-born immigrant” refute my “greatest threat” contention?
Not at all. One of our wisest champions, who I consider a mentor, is also a Cuban immigrant. My criteria have always specifically recognized and exempted individuals who stand apart from otherwise overwhelmingly hostile group majorities.

“Enforced by Sheriff David Livingston,” eh?
It’s not like he’s got better things to focus on, like his longtime deputy “arrested … on charges of burglary, receiving stolen property, embezzlement, and possession of an assault weapon.”

SAF SEEKS SUPREME COURT REVIEW IN ‘SENSITIVE PLACES’ CASE [More]
It’s not that “shall not be infringed” is hard to understand.
It’s that criminally ignoring it is so easy.
Plaintiffs have filed a motion for summary judgment in Roberts v. ATF, one of the Second Amendment Foundation’s (SAF) three supported lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act’s (NFA) registration requirements for short-barreled firearms and silencers. [More]
I just keep coming back to “shall not be infringed” and wonder what evil madness has gripped what was supposed to be the exemplar of Liberty, and, noticing who’s fighting us on this and where the buck stops, what all those high-sounding promises really meant.

They raise a good point:
However, there are some aspects of the Proposed Rule which do not go far enough. As courts have confirmed, the main requirement for disarming Americans—what must be present before they may be disenfranchised from their Second Amendment rights—is ongoing dangerousness.
You know how I feel about ongoing dangerousness.
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has filed a new lawsuit in New Hampshire challenging the unconstitutional search of an 18-year-old high school senior’s vehicle, based solely on the knowledge that he is a legal gun owner. [More]
