One Step Forward and Three Steps Back

Is There a Hidden Meaning in DOJ’s Position on Mag Bans? [Watch]

Let me get this straight: The “pro-gun” DOJ will defend magazines (because they believe bans are unconstitutional or because they think SCOTUS will rule against them?) but still demands license/registration requirements to carry and possess firearms and ammunition…?

If there’s a hidden meaning, they’re not hiding it very well. That seems kind of in-your-face…

And yeah, I’m vulnerable to being sucked in just like most gun owners.

“Full might” my… eye.

Mag Dump

In a filing in the DC Court of Appeals last month in a criminal matter, the United States moved to vacate the appellant’s conviction under D.C. Code § 7-2506.01(b) for possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device, because “[i]t is the United States’s position that § 7-2506.01(b) is unconstitutional.” The DOJ also says they would not charge a similarly situated defendant today.

I’d say it’s about time, but that’s on previous administrations.

We should let this one know it’s done good.

Two-Point Conversion

But that didn’t stop anti-gun D.C. police from slapping the cuffs on Avissar. Why? Because he had a completely legal trigger in his suitcase — and made the mistake of calling it a “conversion device” when questioned. [More]

  1. How is any gun owner deep enough into the weeds to own an FRT oblivious to the first rule of Gun Club?
  2. And when talking to Texas Gun Rights, why no mention of Silver Eagle? Did they tell him something they won’t tell me?

Trump’s DC Takeover Won’t Be a Success if Constitution is Ignored

Crime is down and the enemy is furious. What’s not to like? At the risk of infuriating MAGA loyalists, in a word, infringements. [More]

Which plan will you go with? Help the administration see where it’s going off the rails and needs a course correction, or kill the messenger?

On This We Can Agree

Trump Says He Supports Expanding Concealed Carry to D.C. [More]

Great. So do I.

But there are some concerns about how he’s going about the “cleanup” that a few of us are concerned about that his apologists are dismissing as the gripes of disgruntled naysayers who only focus on the bad and ignore everything good he’s done.

I’m working on something to address all that.

Shall Not Be Infringed Except…

“No law-abiding citizen should have to wait months before he or she can register their firearms, or obtain a concealed carry permit”… [More]

No citizen should be required to do either.

I really get tired of being a critic. I wish our “leaders” would give me less to criticize.

If anyone wants to give a lecture on increments, you’ve got the whole rest of the internet to do it at.

Crime Story

We present this thread with limited commentary because Anna Giaritelli’s story is so troubling and damning of the D.C. police force, it truly speaks for itself. On that note, please send this to any pundit, anchor, Democrat, or Lefty you see spewing the flat-out LIE that violent crime is down 30% in that city. [More]

To say they care about women’s rights is pretty much the same as saying cattlemen care about bovine rights. Any protection has an ultimate goal of maximizing exploitation.

Not that you’d expect these useful idiots to do anything but low with the herd…

As for arguing about it with Lefties, here’s why a descent into their cognitive dissonance is a waste of time, offered without further comment:

Gladly. It’s not about fighting crime.

It never was.

We’re the Only Ones Unqualified Enough

DEI D.C. Police Chief Doesn’t Know What The Term “Chain Of Command” Means [More]

This makes me recall Philadelphia’s former Chief Ramsey and San Francisco’s former Chief Fong, and makes me wonder what I need to do to find out if she’s passed all the required qualifications to carry a gun.

I just spent five minutes searching and can’t even find specifics on what a regular DC cop has to do to pass.

Assault Sandwich/Sandwich Violence/Commonsense Sandwich Safety Laws

Man charged with felony after allegedly whacking federal agent with sandwich amid Trump’s DC crime crackdown [More]

Anyone who can’t be trusted with a sandwich…

Question: Would he be so charged if he did the exact same thing to you or me?

UPDATE

Scrooim. He worked for DOJ.

It’s In Their Nature

Bovard: Waco, Epstein, & Washington’s War On Truth [More]

What’s a scorpion to do?

As the author notes and asks: “Govt. coverups are a conspiracy against self-government. Both Waco and the Epstein scandals exemplify how deceit is the D.C. default. Why is Trump sacrificing his credibility to shroud the worst pedophile scandal in US history?”
