Notes from the Resistance
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in Calce v. City of New York, a case challenging New York City’s ban on electronic arms. [More]
Democrats really don’t want you defending yourself.
The U.S. Supreme Court has granted two of the Second Amendment Foundation’s (SAF) petitions for a writ certiorari in both Viramontes v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins, the organization’s challenges to the bans on so-called “assault weapons” in Illinois and Connecticut. [More]
Now git -r-done before power shifts.

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has filed a federal lawsuit in California challenging Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office policies that prohibit permit holders from carrying handguns equipped with red dot sights or flashlights, as well as their outright ban on the carry of single action only (SAO) 1911- and 2011-style pistols. [More]
“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.”

Hey, he’s just keeping his Antifa buddies safe…
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.
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a lawsuit challenging the ban on firearms possession in federal facilities operated by the National Park Service. [More]
I’m just surprised no one is demanding another environmental impact study…
Today, the National Rifle Association and Second Amendment Foundation filed an amicus brief in Hall v. Sig Sauer, urging a Pennsylvania federal court to reconsider an order requiring Sig Sauer to disclose its customers’ names and contact information without their consent. [More]
It’s nice to see they’ve finally learned their lesson about not sharing credit where due.
Hey, guess whose names are safe!

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has submitted a comment letter to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in support of a proposed rights restoration rule. [More]
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]
I see the cowardly bullies and would-be tyrants have limited who can post Facebook comments.

You know who ought to be taking the lead on all this, not just with arguments but with bearing the costs…?
[Watch]
To be clear, I thought those secret efforts where they “don’t like to get into details talking about who we’re working with and how we’re accomplishing it” had everything under control…

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed a motion for summary judgment in a federal lawsuit challenging Hawaii’s ban on the acquisition and possession of firearms and ammunition for adults 18-20 years old. [More]
Great.
But the state has a virtually unlimited war chest, and 2A advocacy groups have to scramble up money from already overburdened activists.
Where are Harmeet Dhillon and Pam Bondi on this deprivation of rights under color of authority?
Chris Cox is the 2025 Golden Bowtie Award Winner from SAF [More]
In granting summary judgment in favor of SAF, the court granted both declaratory and injunctive relief, declaring the ban unconstitutional and preventing its enforcement for the plaintiffs, including SAF members. Originally filed in June 2024, the lawsuit challenges the ban on firearms carry in U.S. Post Offices and on postal property. SAF is joined in the case, FPC v. Bondi, by the Firearms Policy Coalition and two private citizens. [More]
So, all of these?
And for all of us or just “plaintiffs, including SAF members”?
Why did “pro-gun” Pam Bondi have to be sued? Why didn’t she stand down, or better, denounce the ban and side with plaintiffs?
And will she appeal?

The principles of spring-loaded blades were understood in the mid-18th Century, so of course, Bruen applies.

[More]
Sounds like a job for Harmeet Dhillon, a state with unlimited tax-plundered financial resources extorting a rights group into dropping a legitimate complaint…
