New York Court Order Concludes Gun Permit Insufficient Cause for Car Search

“The Court does not find that the search of the Defendant's car was justified in any manner and accordingly grants the Defendant's motion and suppresses any evidence obtained from the search of the Defendant's car,” George E. Fufidio, Judge of the Westchester County Court wrote.  [More]

I see some in comments questioning the defendant's choices. That's not the significance of this, the judge's order is. Since the DA is going to appeal, the issue is what can permit holders do to make sure the judge's opinion is not overturned?

And no, of course not everyone is allowed to decide what's kept out of a safe space for them. Depending, that would be racist!

The Equalizer

Missoula math prof 'made use of my handgun to tip the balance of power' in home invasion [More]

What a weakling, right, "entertainer Henry Rollins"?

And so much for bloodthirsty gun owners-- the presence of a firearm in moral hands actually averted violence.

Curious, how Opposite Day "progressives" claiming egalitarian motives are so rabidly opposed to equalizers...

So THAT's What the Founders Meant...

The alarming upshot of the ruling is its suggestion that Title IX may sometimes require colleges to censor or block all students’ access to certain internet sites or services based solely on anonymous statements made in an online forum that the university does not control, by people who may not be on campus, or even affiliated with the university at all.

The Intolerable Act

Bump Stock Rule Bumps Up Against the Constitution [More]

Good analysis.

I just checked the Federal Register and don't see it published yet. I believe tomorrow is the day the clock will start.

Have you read the rule?  I mean really read it?

Anyone bloviating about bump stocks being expendable and how we were lucky that this is the hit "we" took either hasn't or didn't understand the implications of what they were reading.

Have you seen the destruction mandate? Cut or don't cut a piece the wrong way as ordered and possession means we're gonna getcha. Obey or be destroyed.

It strikes that not only redefines "machinegun," it de facto redefines "firearm" if having the wrong slice of plastic stock is enough to put us away.

These are terms of surrender. This is an Intolerable Act.

We're the Only Ones Multi-Tasking Enough

Webster County Sheriff Timothy Seth Mitchell, 53, was charged with two counts of embezzlement; two counts of trafficking in stolen firearms; one count of attempting sex and/or sexual acts with an inmate; one count of tampering with physical evidence; three counts of retaliation against a witness; one count of permitting possession and/or sale of controlled substance in jail; and two counts of furnishing an inmate with weapons, cell phone, and narcotics.   [More]

You wouldn't think a man so beset by mortal enemies would drive away those who want to support him and the promises he made.

I still see those insisting that this, the "bump stock" disaster (and convince me Deep State Fairfax didn't set him up on that) and the rest of his recent reversals are all part of some genius move where he's three steps ahead of everybody.

This is like a Greek tragedy unfolding before us.
