Where Credit is Due
This is where the battle is going and you can help throw up roadblocks to the gun grabbers for free. Donations to our OFF’s Political Action Committee qualify for a tax credit, which is even better than a deduction. [More]
If you're an Oregon gun owner you shouldn't need some guy from Ohio pleading with you on this.

We're the Only Ones F***in' 'em Up Enough
It was five days after George Floyd was killed, and an unmarked white van of cops were told to go out and “f*** ’em up.” So they did. [More]

Not Too Cerebral Cortez
George Floyd’s nephew, Cortez Rice, makes a claim that he knows people taking photos of jurors during the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha, Wisconsin. His goal is to dox jurors if they do not convict. [More]
Jury tampering and intimidation is a crime. Start messing with judges and expect totally disproportional pushback. So, why hasn't this terrorist been arrested?
That's one jury duty summons a lot of people wouldn't try to get out of.
Some might even want to know what this in-way-over-his-head loudmouth eats for breakfast.

If at First You Don't Succeed
Cook County commissioners voted Thursday to amend a guns and ammunition tax that was found unconstitutional by the Illinois Supreme Court, aiming to give the measure another lifeline by designating that money for violence prevention. [More]

Allege that sweeping ban is discriminatory: “SB 21-116 sweeps derisive, neutral, and honorific uses of Native American names and imagery together into the universal term “American Indian mascot” …. SB 21-116 unlawfully enacts state-sanctioned race discrimination against Plaintiffs.” [More]

Death of a Salesman
Poster boy for U.S. gun control movement kills himself in jail on DUI charge: Mark Glaze, 51, who helped Obama write policy and took on NRA 'was suffering from depression' [More]
So you don't need a gun to do it, and no amount of government control short of putting everyone in s straight jacket and a padded room will stop someone who is determined?
What a study in cognitive dissonance:
- A "safety advocate" saying he wanted to save lives endangered them through irresponsible drunk driving.
- Someone demanding controls on you and me could (or would) not control himself.
- What he really loathed turned out to be himself. He spent his professional life trying to "correct" everything but that. It's fair to wonder if the fixation on guns was because he knew what he might do with one.
“If true that you are attempting to intervene in the work we are doing with celebrities on Demand A Plan and drive them toward Brady: don’t,” MAIG Executive Director Mark Glaze told Brady Campaign President Dan Gross in no uncertain terms via email.To be clear, that was not a request. That was an order.
Freedom of the 'Press'

A Plan Comes Together
Gov. DeSantis Slams Biden Admin Over Illegal “Dumped” In Florida And Alleged To Commit Murder - These flights are ‘secret and stealth’ and the state of Florida has no warning that they (illegal immigrants) are being resettled here, because private non-profit, sometimes religious agencies, are being utilized—and are paid in grants funded by the federal government—to take the immigrants and resettle them throughout the state of Florida...

A U.S. federal appeals court issued a stay Saturday freezing the Biden administration's efforts to require workers at U.S. companies with at least 100 employees be vaccinated against COVID-19 or be tested weekly, citing "grave statutory and constitutional" issues with the rule. [More]
It's telling, how many "news reports" find it necessary to emphasize "Republican-appointed judges."
Will there be any crossover principles applicable to those fighting military discharges? They seem to be the right age...

Let's all hear it for the effectiveness of "prohibited person" laws!

Covid-19 Vaccines and Myocarditis Link Probed by Researchers - Several theories are under investigation seeking to explain heart-inflammation conditions among small numbers of vaccinated [More]
And it gets worse "within seven days of the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines"?
"Researchers aren’t certain" means they don't know. They also don't know if that number will still be "small" a year from now, or two, or five...

It's a Big Club and You May Be In It
The Biden administration in just the past year alone stockpiled the records of more than 54 million U.S. gun owners and is poised to drastically alter gun regulations to ensure that information on Americans who own firearms ultimately ends up in the federal government's hands, according to internal Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

For those who just want to cut to the chase, no, of course not. They're wringing their hands like they deeply care, angling for more tax plunder, and once more trying to shift the blame.

This was crushing news for constitutional conservatives who had fought so hard for the confirmations of Barrett and Kavanaugh against an unhinged progressive onslaught. [More]
Yeah, well, as long as confirmation hearings are treated more like pre-coronation ceremonies and less like job interviews, continue to be crushed and act surprised by it.
