An Age-Old Question

Attorneys representing the Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in a federal lawsuit challenging the prohibition of handgun sales to young adults have filed a reply to the federal government’s arguments supporting the ban. The case is known as Reese v. ATF. [More]

What must the grabbers think of those they think old enough to vote Democrat?

Anybody up on what’s going on with NRA’s action?

NRA gets the major media attention, but they’re not the only group taking action:

And now, the rest of the story… and I include this link because I want you to read it.

This “investigation” is a pretty naked lawfare/smear attempt to go ad hominem on someone at the forefront of effective Second Amendment legal defense cases to try and derail and harm them. It’s also meant to cause divisions and suspicions within the “gun community” over finances and relationships with other Gottlieb holdings for marketing, rent, and other services, which have never been a secret. SAF/CCRKBA tax filings are available to anyone on Guidestar, and before calling shenanigans, document what those would cost the SAF/CCRKBA nonprofits if they were provided by someone else.

For an impartial third-party opinion, Charity Navigator doesn’t have a dog in this fight. Let’s see what they have to say:

“Good – This charity’s score is 77%, earning it a Three-Star rating. If this organization aligns with your passions and values, you can give with confidence.”

I wonder if it will come out if anyone from out of state, including groups, politicians, and federal agencies, is a silent partner in this.

This isn’t just a knee-jerk reaction on my part. I’ve had some differences with Alan over the years, including some ongoing ones, and am on good terms with people who admire him and with people who can’t stand him, but what’s happening to him here is pure filth by evil interests that want you and me disarmed.

UPDATE

I hope my speculation on silent partners is followed up on because this revelation shows the relationships are baked in.

Hitting the Ground Running

Responding quickly to the adoption of House Bill 1240 by the Washington Legislature and Gov. Jay Inslee signing it into law, the Second Amendment Foundation today filed a federal lawsuit challenging the new statute on Second and Fourteenth Amendment grounds, and is asking the court for preliminary and permanent injunctions.

An Age-Old Question

A federal judge in Minnesota on Friday struck down a state restriction limiting handgun carry permits to those over age 21, in a case brought by the Second Amendment Foundation, citing Second Amendment guidelines in last year’s Supreme Court Bruen ruling. The case is known as Worth v. Harrington. [More]

What does the historical tradition say?

The Better to Eat You With, My Dear

Attorneys representing the Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in a case concerning gun owner privacy in California have filed a respondent’s brief in the ongoing case of Barba v. Bonta, challenging the constitutionality of a 2021 law requiring the California Department of Justice (CAL/DOJ) to share extensive personal identifying information of gun owners in the state with a non-government research group.

In fairness, sneaking to violate privacy and rules just wasn’t cutting it.

Getting 2A Back on Track

Plaintiffs in a case supported financially by the Second Amendment Foundation challenging a concealed carry ban on Illinois Public Transportation have filed a memorandum supporting their earlier motion for summary judgment in the case. [More]

Even if they win, you wouldn’t catch me riding the Chi-Town “L.”

Of course, you wouldn’t find me living in Chicago, either.

A Waiting Game

“New York has once again adopted a law we believe is unconstitutional, and we’re confident the federal court will bring an end to this nonsense. It’s time for lawmakers in Albany to stop trying to outsmart the U.S. Supreme Court.” [More]

I think what they’re doing is much more insidious than that.

They have tax cows they can milk for legal war chest funds, all the while depleting their victims’ resources to fight back. And they’re counting on extending things in the courts long enough for the Republicans to blow it yet again, so the Democrats can stack the court and reverse Bruen.
