... The Giffords Law Center and the State of California, sued the BATFE, demanding they change their regulations and outlaw "80% receivers". Essentially they are demanding the ATF change the law to outlaw homemade guns.

Grewal and Unusual Punishment
The U.S. Supreme Court has denied a petition for certiorari from New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal in his effort to escape the jurisdiction of the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in the ongoing First Amendment case brought by Defense Distributed and the Second Amendment Foundation.

And I was so looking forward to him dictating to us what was acceptable to him...
It Ain't Over 'til It's Over
The Oregon State Police clarified that the guy was merely “detained” and not arrested, nor is he currently facing charges. However that could all change if district attorneys opt to file charges... [More]

We're the Only Ones Off-Camera Enough
“No one is above the law, including those tasked with enforcing it,” Jones said. Herring, also a Democrat, said he’ll continue to push for stronger gun laws to try to prevent such violence. [More]
Going after you and me ought to have a real impact on young feral sociopaths and cops who turn off their bodycams and shoot unarmed people.
And as long as we're being "transparent," tell us more about Ahmon, Nyquez and Devon. That is if it won't get anybody in trouble...

Deliberately Unclear on the Concept
Congressman Joe Neguse, the Democrat who represents the district that includes Boulder, led a letter to President Joe Biden Thursday calling for him to issue an executive order banning the importation of assault weapons, including some semiautomatic rifles and high-capacity magazines. Also signing onto the letter were Colorado’s three other Democratic members of the House of Representatives — Reps. Diana DeGette, Ed Perlmutter and Jason Crow — and 60 others. Neguse co-led the letter with Illinois Democratic Rep. Robin Kelly. [More]
Well, it's clearly a delegated executive power right there in Article. II. somewhere.
These "safe district" traitors are counting on anyone dumb enough to vote for them being dumb enough not to have a clue about that.
I'd almost say I hope Biden tries it, except for John Roberts and those Dolly pix.

Update to Montana Gun Confiscation Story
The County Attorney got back to me so I have updated this story at the end with the details of our conversation. [More]
Now There's a Shocker!
Open Letter By Dan Gross, Former President of The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence & Rob Pincus [More]
I'm still internally debating on whether or not to weigh in. In the meantime, here are some thoughts from:
I see some are questioning AmmoLand's decision to publish it, saying we don't need to give the enemy another platform when they have the whole rest of the media to give them a voice and make sure to cancel our thoughts. I see that point, but I'm glad they posted it, and here's why:
The guy is self-immolating -- he'll never have credibility in the "gun community" again. Reader comments show no one is buying it, and that type of reader would not dominate in any other forum. This sends a loud and clear message that is not diluted by supportive comments lauding the idiot views as "common sense" and proof that we can find "common ground" if we just exclude those nasty right-wing extremists!
And as Napoleon Bonaparte, or Haley Barbour, or Woodrow Wilson is reputed to have said:
Never Interfere With an Enemy While He’s in the Process of Destroying Himself
If I do decide to write an article I'll bring up some points (and some proofs) I haven't seen anyone else talking about.

The Content of Their Character
There are a lot of far right commentators sharing this horrific story and highlighting the fact the perpetrators are Black. [More]

Funny, how outraged "journalists" can't wait to scream "white supremacy" before facts are known in other stories...
An Idea Whose Time Has Come

There is No New Thing Under the Sun
Mayorkas’ insulting spin on this Biden-caused disaster is Communism, pure and simple. It is the stuff of Stalin: you tell the people a wild story to cover the failure of the state. But that’s not the only communistic thing Mayorkas said. [More]
The New Outcasts
Soon, persuasion will turn into coercion, and from coercion to outright force. It’s already clear that air-travel will require vaccine passports, and that public transit, concerts, libraries, restaurants and, perhaps, even grocery stores could follow soon after. [More]
That they are demanding to do this to every person on the planet with absolutely no data on effects one, five, 10, or more years down the line, particularly to the young, ought to scare the hell out of everyone. That even discussing that is canceled out of the public discourse and either ridiculed or condemned as heresy by those who will brook no dissent hardly builds trust.
And that any reference to the origins and China's role is being shut down at the highest levels under the phony, chilling charge of #StopAsianHate suggests yet another incentivized set of motives.
You'll Have to Forgive My Cognitive Dissonance Confusion Here
In addition, Gun for Hire owner Anthony Colandro, who is a Stigma Free Task Force member, also supports the Be SMART gun safety initiative, and will provide this vital information to range patrons. [More]
Teaming up with Moms Demand and publicly validating those working for "lock up your safety" to be the "law"? Seriously? Who does he think he is, Rob Pincus?
First, he was endorsed by the "Saviors", who reject immigration voting demographic changes as a "single issue" concern, despite his publicly stated position:
As for as immigration goes, yes, the politicians should pay the price for not securing out Nation for the immigration invasion. We now have a three-tier system in the US. Political elites first, criminals and illegals second, and we the tax paying law-abiding citizens third. I have had enough!
He also promised he would "inform members of [his] performance and voting record [and] let us know when he dissent[ed with NRA management] and why":
Yes I will, and I will use my podcast and all social media platforms to state my voting record as well as my dissent. I am an open book with no filter. I am not doing this for the title or the free Danish. If elected I represent the members not management. Something our politicians long forgot as well.
Anybody see that after he was seated?
So what falls on me now is did I get suckered?
Feel free to post a comment to tell me (and everyone who reads this) why I've got you all wrong, Mr. Colandro.

His only alleged crime was being in the city for the rally. As soon as he got home to LA, his gun and badge were confiscated. “I was escorted off the premise to my apartment like a criminal. And I was fired after being suspended for two months.” [More]

Masking Their Guilt
That was all a sideshow for the ever failing cameras so they could go back to the gun owners in their districts and boast about all they did to “protect gun rights.” In some cases the charade was a success. OFF received numerous emails saying we were wrong about the vote. Because they heard from these brave Republicans and by God, they voted “no!” [More]
Perhaps some gun owners are that obtuse, but I find it more likely this came from Republican quisling apologists seeking to deceive gun owners by making their phony narrative the dominant one. The question the traitorous reps won't answer unequivocally: Why were you on the floor when you knew that would make passage inevitable?
Weekend Update
Biden Calls for Gun Control - SNL [Watch]
I thought this show was supposed to be funny...? I did get one laugh:
"I don't know what you talkin' about. I just bought a gun last summer when all those white kids start talkin' about gettin' rid of the po-lice."
At least they covered Biden's airplane trip.

“We could hear a man chuckling,” shopper Angelina Romero-Chavez recalled hearing as she hid from the gunman while shots rang out around her. [More]

As the Knee Jerks
We must find effective alternative mental health and law enforcement solutions to mass shootings, whether carried out by madmen or terrorists, without curtailing the God-given rights of citizens and ending freedom in pursuing false security. [More]
Miguel A. Faria, M.D. offers some insights into the attacks on rights we've come to expect and some of the rational measures that need to be done instead. That his ideas aren't among the first ones considered by those in power is a good indicator that citizen disarmament as their go-to "solution" is not about public safety but about public control.
You've read some of his books, right?
Altering the Terms of the Deal
Q.E.D.
These findings cast doubt on the hypothesis that more guns cause more homicide, and thus on the hypothesis that reducing overall gun levels via gun control will reduce homicide. [More]
Like we've been saying...
Then there's this:
On the other hand, gun control measures narrowly targeting high-risk subsets of the population such as convicted criminals or mentally ill persons might reduce violence.
I prefer "will" over "might," especially when the alternative is to enforce existing Intolerable Acts. That and it's up to anyone suggesting that to explain Baltimore.
Speaking of Unfunded Mandates...
!!! IFC SUED BY MONROE COUNTY !!! [More]
I was going to dig into this to break it down, but I see AmmoLand has already done that, including embedding the lawsuit and its attachments for those of you who enjoy getting into the weeds.
Going after citizens for asserting their right to object to unlawful preemption is a new one.
Tell me if I'm missing something because all I had time to do was scan. I'm against unfunded mandates as much as the next (non-coercive) guy, but is that really what the county is being subjected to here? Isn't whether or not they WANT to add security in response to the law their choice, rather than an order from above?
