“First the public learned the government withheld information from the defense during trial and only recently provided it to the defense,” the report continues. “Second, defense attorney Robert Gorence mentioned during the hearing [that] defense attorney Jason Bowles apparently may have uncovered a link between the Reese case and Operation Fast and Furious.”[More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report notes a ray of hope for some political prisoners.

Reese motion for new trial to be heard next week
Masks off anti-gun end game in Connecticut
Meyer wants that to happen by amending the general statutes “to establish a class C felony offense, except for certain military and law enforcement personnel and certain gun clubs, for (1) any person or organization to purchase, sell, donate, transport, possess or use any gun except one made to fire a single round, (2) any person to fire a gun containing more than a single round, (3) any person or organization to receive from another state, territory or country a gun made to fire multiple rounds, or (4) any person or organization to purchase, sell, donate or possess a magazine or clip capable of holding more than one round.” [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the antis aren't trying to hide their true intent any more, which actually does us a huge favor.

On border state long gun registration:
You should also know both these Nazgul were Clinton appointees.
Speaking of which, you need to register to read this and they want money. But I thought you should know about this.
Senior Judge Harry Edwards and Judge Judith Rogers dominated the hearing with questions for Richard Gardiner,the lawyer representing gun dealers J&G Sales Ltd. and Foothills Firearms LLC. Edwards, in particular, appeared perplexed by his argument that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was demanding any records that dealers weren't legally required to maintain.
The argument, Edwards told Gardiner, is "one you're losing everywhere." [More]

The Polyphemus "I Will Eat You Last" Act of 2013
The term `gun show' ... does not include an offer or exhibit of firearms for sale, exchange, or transfer by an individual from the personal collection of that individual, at the private residence of that individual, if the individual is not required to be licensed ...At least not until the next bill.
Go to the Library of Congress THOMAS site and enter "H.R.141" in the "Bill Number" search box.
The Escape Clause
...after he wielded the prop... [More]I've been wondering when that would become the "defense" talking point, and didn't want to be the one to give it to them.
Thing is, it's "illegal" to lie to a police investigator, so if they try it, we need to establish who gave it to him and who they got it from, and that they are prosecuted if it can be shown they lied.
Let's see who's willing to take one for the team.

Talk About Being Disappointed
“We attended today’s White House meeting to discuss how to keep our children safe and were prepared to have a meaningful conversation about school safety, mental health issues, the marketing of violence to our kids and the collapse of federal prosecutions of violent criminals,” the gun lobbying group said in a statement. [More]So you didn't attend prepared to tell them we won't stand for scapegoating, that the only thing that will stop school shootings is to end phony "gun-free" zones, and that if anybody in Congress betrays us we'll do everything in our power to kick him off the damn gravy train?
The Cliffs of Insanity has an interesting observation about what NRA wants "to have a meaningful conversation about":
Wayne, could you please go off and found the National Keep Our Children and Schools Safe and Mental Health Issues and The Marketing of Violence and Federal Prosecution Of Violent Criminals Association? Seriously. You have a burning passion for this, so go for it.
Morning Joe
“I disagree with a lot of [Sen.] Dianne Feinstein’s suggestions and recommendations, but background checks, the banning of military-style assault weapons, the banning of high-capacity magazine clips, it’s all constitutional under Heller.

Sure it is, Joe. You're just to insulated to understand why.

If only Congress holds fast. Meaning if only we let them know we will back them if they do the right thing and cast them out if they do the wrong.
Everybody here has already done what's called for here, right?
And spread the word so others do it, too?
Because we're going to need to do it again next week, and the one after that to show these people we're serious. If they won't do the right thing out of principle, they need to fear doing the wrong thing out of self-interest.
