Notes from the Resistance...
That said, here’s where BIDS could prove a very useful tool to expose the antis and what they’re really after: If the “commonsense gun safety law groups” truly only want background checks, why would they not promote a system like BIDS, which creates none of the potential registration dangers that create such strong gun owner opposition? [More]Any chair in a bar fight...
Ultimately, it will be game over anyway unless we do one other thing, and pronto: Recognize that the Founders were pretty smart chess players themselves, and when they recognized the importance – the necessity – of a well regulated militia for the security of a free State, they knew what they were talking about. [More]What do we do when the biggest impediments to "shall not be infringed" appear to be the leaders we've supported?
US needs more immigrants for economy to grow: JP Morgan strategist *As in "metastasize"?
Super Duty LE is available to credentialed law enforcement officers only. [More]Why? Unless it involves state bans, there's no law requiring this, and that's not the case here.
Vice President Mike Pence believes Indiana’s red flag law could be used as a potential blueprint for similar laws across the country. [More]What a fundamental transformation timesaver! There's no need to vote when Republicans just adopt Democrat policies on their own!

The Knight Institute, which successfully sued President Donald Trump over his decision to block dozens of users on Twitter from his personal @realdonaldtrump account, argued that Ocasio-Cortez’s account “is a ‘public forum’ within the meaning of the First Amendment” guaranteeing free speech and noted that her tweets staking out political positions “have made headline news.” [More]If the medium really legally can be considered a public forum, how can they block, shadowban and demonetize accounts that present matters of public interest, including those that should be headline news but don't support the favored narrative?
My research has indicated that assault weapons bans have no significant effects on gun-related murders but that permissive concealed carry laws - as opposed to restrictive ones - may actually reduce gun-related murders...

[More]It looks like there's plenty of stupid and corrupt to go around.
The threat of liability would force establishments to post clear gun policies—either to avoid liability by banning guns or to recoup the cost of liability by prominently advertising the permissibility of guns. [More]This guy thinks it should be one-sided like that, and he's the teacher?
A red flag law allows you to officially snitch on your neighbors, relatives or friends, and have them detained without bringing real charges. You can do it out of fear, or just suspicion that people you know may be "up to something" without proof. The cops can break in, confiscate property (arms), and the person you rat out ends up with giant legal bills, court dates, a permanent blot that can't be removed -- and they didn't actually do anything -- you just used your expanded legal "right" to red flag the person. [More]Those Opposite Day "progressives" sure are "forward-thinking."
Guns explicitly banned inside Arizona Latter-day Saints churches [More]Maybe the demons didn't hear the first invocation...
While the Second Amendment protects a right to bear arms, it does not require taxpayers to subsidize the exercise of that right. [More]The hell it doesn't, you liar.

For instance, that bit about "plac[ing] an unnecessary stain on an otherwise stellar agency"...

A Lancaster County man who made a “gun-like hand gesture” at his neighbor committed a crime, according to a Pennsylvania Superior Court ruling. [More]When will this scourge finally end?
That’s what certain religious people do. Not atheists. [More]I'd argue that fanatical certainty that there is no God based on our limited dataset and capacity as observers simply cannot be definitive. I'd think an honest doubter who perceives inconsistencies within religious claims and between them with testable reality would call himself an agnostic.
"We don't know if the information is inaccurate..." [Watch]In other words, he's doubling down on "If true."
During the investigation, it was determined that Bowen briefly worked as a police recruit for the Clayton County Police, however he was terminated prior to completion of the academy.

White privilege is the only reason he wasn't shot dead ... this shows the naked truth about white privilege ... Alive and unharmed sound white ... If he was black, he would have forty bullets in him ...You get the picture. Hey, gotta virtue signal back to "progressive" Muslim candidates to get cred for how woke we are. That and condemn Whitey.
You have to understand the rage that Black people feel when we see this. R A G E!!!Success!
According to Axios, Jared Kushner recently told a group of Republican donors at a Wyoming retreat that felons are registering to vote Republican. It’s hard to tell which promise is more absurd – that convicted felons will vote Republicans or that “Dreamers” will reward Republicans for joining Democrats in giving them amnesty. [More]I don't suppose any of that can be substantiated...

Why Are Russian Special Forces Training With American Assault Rifles? [More]But...but...but these are selective fire.

Northam appointee made anti-Catholic jokes and derogatory attacks on social media [More]That's because she knows Catholics won't cut her head off, which partially explains why she lays off the religion of peace.
Phil Van Cleave: VCDL Open to Evaluations To Jason Mirayes Red Flag Bill [More]That's not what he says at all.
A pair of Texas armed government workers were caught on camera – their own body cameras – committing multiple crimes, including the “drive-by” Tazering of a man they later arrested and charged with attempting to flee, which he hadn’t as a matter of law because he hadn’t been given the chance to not-flee.

BOA President Reed predicts new anti-crime project will cut crime in the City of St. Louis [More]Would he care to bet on that? With his own money?
David Hogg has officially been clear: If he’s assassinated, he wants his corpse to decorate the doorstep of the NRA’s headquarters in Fairfax, Virginia. This is, of course, after activists do a photo shoot with it for propaganda purposes. [More]And here I thought he was going to ascend into the clouds, the way this narcissistic little useful idiot perceives his significance.
It's not only that Trump has to lose, but that all his enablers have to lose -- we have to collectively, in essence, burn down the Republican party. We have to level them because if there are survivors -- if there are people who weather this storm, they will do it again... [More]Told ya. Trump's an avatar. And if you think those sentiments will remain metaphors with those who consider kapo Jennifer a useful idiot, you'd better whistle louder through the graveyard of history.

The Federal Election Commission chairwoman wants to start a probe into the National Rifle Association and Russia based on allegations pushed by Fusion GPS, the investigative firm that created the discredited anti-Trump dossier. [More]So this Democrat was recess-appointed by the NRA-designated "Vote Freedom First President," her term actually expired in 2007 but she hasn't been replaced yet, and she was an Opposite Day "progressive" ethics guru to the House and Senate?
Genuine common sense comes through loud and clear in Shean’s book, no doubt cultivated from his background, which includes all kinds of practical and useful experiences and skills. It comes across in his writing and I soon realized it felt more like he was talking to me than I was reading his words. It’s a gift to be able to do that. [More]You don't have to be from Massachusetts -- ultimately, this book is for everybody.
