Notes from the Resistance
Injunction granted against ATF’s ‘firearms dealer’ rule for 4 states, 4 groups … The injunction applies to residents of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Utah along with members of Gun Owners of America, Gun Owners Foundation, Tennessee Firearms Association and Virginia Citizens Defense League. [More]
Yo, Texas gun owners: The new infringements were brought to you in part by Tony Gonzales, and a number of you couldn’t be bothered to do anything about that.

My existential concerns about Israel’s very survival vastly outweight any concerns re local 2A rights. [More]
Whereas MY existential concerns are about the Republic’s very survival, and why I have consistently warned against the competing loyalties of “dual citizenship.”
As for Israel’s defense, we– and they — should heed the strategy outlined by the late Sam Cohen, “father of the neutron bomb,” that the U.S. could substantially reduce aid by stopping essentially dictating their defense options:
Finally, and most importantly as I see it, as an American whose concern for my country transcends by far that for Israel or any other country, if such conditions could be established for Israel’s defense and Israel were given a free hand to defend its interests in the Middle East as it saw fit, like once again bombing political enemy nuclear capabilities, we would have the golden opportunity to get out of that region. It’s been nothing more than a headache to
us ever since we first started meddling around over there and on at least one occasion it’s been downright dangerous, threatening to get us into a nuclear war.
Or, you can keep believing what the string pullers and profiteers want you to believe.
If this doesn’t change, correction, if we don’t change that, gun owners will be telling two supposedly opposite groups they can get away with more betrayals and infringements. [More]
Establishment Republicans and Prohibitionist Democrats just got a pretty good snapshot of gun owner willingness to walk the talk.
Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas narrowly won his primary Tuesday against a gun-rights activist who pushed the border congressman into a bruising runoff that threatened to unseat a U.S. House incumbent. [More]
So the Vichycon gun-grabber won.
Looks like regrets are in order…

Rep. Gonzales: I don’t regret voting for gun safety [More]
And NRA darling Greg Abbot doesn’t regret endorsing him.
To be determined in today’s primary runoff: If Brandon Herrera regrets believing gun owners would do anything concrete to support him.

This is your opportunity to punch the gun controlling RINOs directly in the nose because the race that Brandon Herrera is in versusTony Gonzalez and all the RINO class in Washington, this has become the most important United States House race across the board… [Watch]
It’s a chance. Whether it’s a fighting chance depends on gun owners.
This is the most important video I’ve seen Braden Langley make.
As a tangential aside, it’s curious, how combative some get at the suggestion there ought to be political consequences…
[Via Jess]
Contorting, lol. And I never said, or even suggested, any of that. The 3% just objectively proves you were wrong about A+ meaning you always have to be right–it doesn’t imply anything about subjective weights of infringements. [More]
I’m moving the “debate” here because it’s bad form to hijack another man’s post with an argument, because it doesn’t limit me to 280 characters, and because I basically use “advocacy media” to promote my work, so as long as I’m doing it, why limit eyeballs?
The thread with the back-and-forths starts here. My response to this latest:
Not “wrong,” just not expecting you to argue a formal academic scale instead of one of principle. My assumption was you were saying helping Gonzales return to power only counted 3% against a grade of 100. I just didn’t realize what you were talking about because it struck me as so off-topic.
My mistake was accepting your distracting from the real issue with non sequiturs about 3% and age and four terms. It’s simple: Abbot is enabling a Quisling who sold us out to Biden’s tyranny and will predictably do so again. And you’re excusing him and doing so helps the establishment GOP exclude new and principled contenders, with no disincentives. So from my point of view, the one who “always has to be right” is the one evading that reality to instead try and score an irrelevant “gotcha.”
To me, real 2A fidelity means 100%, kind of like the reverse of you can’t be a little bit pregnant. Maybe it means something different to you.
And the “Bipartisan bill” did more than create new opportunities for ATF to destroy lives and kill your fellow gun owners on private sales. They’re extending the net for all it’s worth.
LOL, no. You are welcome to write what you want wherever you want, but I’m under no obligation to obey your unilateral dictates. Have fun with that, though.
If it quacks like a Democrat…
And see, here’s the thing. This is another Avatar situation. It’s not just Herrera he’s calling a neo-Nazi.
GOP Congressman Tony Gonzales forced into runoff by Brandon Herrera in District 23 [More]
There’s still a huge gap to fill.
It’s up to gun owners in that district to learn the truth and share it. If they keep rewarding Vichycons, the GOP has no incentive to change.
