Kick the Can

SCOTUS Fails Americans Again, Kicking Gun Rights Further Down the Road [More]

Nothing like emboldening gun-grabbers and eroding respect for law…

And speaking of Firearms News articles, the June 2025 issue (pictured above) with three of my articles (“Supreme Court Avoids New York Second Amendment Infringements” (p. 10), “A Tale of Two Revolutions” (p.12), and “ATF and DOJ Continue Abuses While Being Bipolar on Guns” (p. 14), is now on display at diverse and inclusive newsstands throughout the Republic. (Or you could save money over single issue prices and subscribe.)

The Long and Short of It

NRA-ILA Petitions the U.S. Supreme Court to Hear Challenge to NFA Restrictions on Short-Barreled Rifles [More]

Pretty long on “common use” popularity and pretty short on core purpose except to address militia controls, as opposed to militia necessity.

Now all SCOTUS has to do is… nothing.

Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

[More]

Talk about sugar-coating: Good grief.

You know what would work even better than “YOUR help”? Getting Pam Bondi and her ATF guy to submit well documented statements of support.

If gun owner reps had a seat at the table, they’d be able to finesse that. But the ones in a position to demand that apparently think continuing to solicit craps shoot funds is the better way to go.

Even Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson Got It Right

The Supreme Court unanimously threw out Mexico’s multi-billion-dollar lawsuit against the American gun industry on Thursday that sought to usher in major changes to firearm sales by holding companies liable for cartel violence. [More]

At what point will the industry go after Jonathan Lowy for costs and fees?

And NOW What?

GOA & GOF File for Summary Judgment to Overturn Florida’s Open Carry Ban [More]

’bout damn time. Before someone gets killed.

So, will Uthmeier and DeSantis stand down, like they did with a challenge to the under 21 long gun ban, or fight, and in any case, all the Supreme Court has to do to keep the prohibition in place is something they’ve proven very adept at: Nothing.

Lest Ye Be Judged

Obama Judge Says to Hell with the Supreme Court, Orders Trump DOJ to Turn Over Docs Related to Decision to Revoke ‘Protected Status’ for Hundreds of Thousands of Migrants [More]

Millions of Democrat cultists are fine with inferior courts imposing their subversion on the rest of the Republic, and they have enough representation to block a fix by Congress. At some point, Trump will need to exercise executive prerogative.

Still Dithering

What’s to negotiate?

Q&A

The Supreme Court heard oral argument today in birthright citizen case with implications for 2A. [Watch]

I was hoping some prominent voice in the gun adovcacy community would finally address how immigration demographics threaten 2A, but no such luck. Instead, we get Sonia Sotomayor disingenuously playing devil’s advocate for nationwide injunctions by asking what would happen if a president ordered gun bans and confiscations.

The answer wouldn’t be a legal one.

It hasn’t been done because they wouldn’t dare.

Coalition of the Willing

Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall has joined a 26-state coalition urging the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to intervene in a legal challenge to Hawaii’s firearms law, Act 52, which restricts the carrying or possession of firearms in various public and private locations deemed “sensitive,” such as parks, beaches, bars, and financial institutions. [More]

Good, but there are more pressing issues that affect ALL of us.

In the meantime, Hawaiians can just do what I did for @ 30 years in California…

The Spirit of Aloha

Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen led a 26-state coalition today asking the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to intervene and halt Hawaii’s unconstitutional gun ban which prohibits the carry or possession of firearms in designated “sensitive” places, including bars and restaurants serving alcohol, parks and beaches, banks and financial institutions, and other areas. [More]

Why it’s even necessary speaks volumes of the mindset that votes to be ruled.

Bondi Steps Up

Stephen Stamboulieh brings us some good news about Pam Bondi and DOJ doing something necessary and good by filing a brief in support of the Second Amendment, noting Hawaii trying to ban guns on private property without specific owner permnission effectively equates to a gun ban practically everywhere. This is a hopeful sign and we need to see more like this.

The challenge is another example of great legal navigation and piloting by Alan Beck.

As an aside, this is how “guntubing” ought to be, a subject matter authority articuately sharing knowledge and guidance, as opposed to mansplaining the work of others for clicks.

And pay attention to this, @ 7:15 in:

The Ninth Circuit needs to be broken up as a court. It’s too big, it’s way too powerful, and it does some really stupid things that we’re going to talk about in my 7 o’clock live tonight where I just lost $400,000 in that case.

That’s something we’ve talked about before.

Counting Eggs

Supreme Court’s “Ghost Gun” Ruling Accidentally Paves Way For Next-Gen 80% Firearms [More]

Don’t go celebrating the workaround just yet.

Another lawsuit and another injunction and we’re back to Square One. And if “common use” is the new standard, I wouldn’t be looking at “uncommon tools” as a solution.
