While going either way won't provide enough information to draw an informed generalized conclusion, it will nonetheless be symbolically very powerful.
If they're both cured, a "Booyah!" will not be uncalled for, at least from an emotional point of view. And I'm sure if it goes the other way, there will be no shortage of "progressives" celebrating on Twitter and condemning them for trying.

I remember when a computer that would fill a room had less processing ability than my hand-held cellphone and am anticipating advances in energy storage size reduction that will someday make Star Trek-style phaser pistols a reality.
Make those "For government and law enforcement use only" and deny that technology to the people, and the Second Amendment could be effectively nullified through obsolescence.

In response, Sen. Grassley offered an alternative unanimous consent request for S.1775, the Protecting Communities and Preserving the Second Amendment Act of 2021–legislation that would actually reduce violent crime while bolstering protections for law-abiding gun owners. S. 1775 would increase prosecutions and penalties for those that violate the myriad of gun laws already on the books –an approach NRA has supported for decades. [More]
I also know that "I will not comply" defiance, by definition, means a gun owner is no longer "law-abiding."
I sure wish that our "leaders" would stop setting traps for us and that their blind followers would wake the hell up.

Well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...
Hey, if they're not being reported, how do they know? And then we find "gun control" is the main reason people leave them in cars. Gotta leave "bar carry" to the professionals...
The intent, of course, is to require reporting by the "law-abiding," as if that will result in a damn thing, except maybe some self-incrimination and liability...

No, leftists in the media can’t reprise that same theme music, and thus it appears their goal is to play a head game on GOP voters by attempting to pre-emptively convince them that Trump cannot win the presidency again in 2024, no matter if you like him or not, and that in fact, his candidacy alone will actually cost Republicans an election they should easily win. This storyline is evident in writing across the spectrum of elite anti-Trump journalism. [More]
Actually, trying to spook low-information "Republicans" into believing that their salvation lies in "moderation" is one of the oldest tricks in the playbook.

Islamic Republic of Iran considers nationwide ban on ‘unclean, un-Islamic’ dogs [More]

Instances of people being attacked by stray dogs have also fueled calls for restrictions…
Fortunately, at least for the Mullahs, Iran has plenty of Imams Demand Action-style "commonsense gun safety laws," like background checks, licensing, and registration...
I've talked before on occasion about how as a boy I lived in Iran for five years (that's me on the top left). We called such wild dogs "jube dogs" (jubes being ditches along the side of the road) and there were packs of them all over the place. The government actually did a mass "roundup" while we were there.
I used to ride my bike all over the place with my Daisy BB rifle strapped to my shoulder, and a few times had to discourage an aggressive animal from approaching with a well-placed shot to its body.
My point is I did this in the Shah's Iran and nobody bothered me... Had my own sons tried riding around the neighborhood with a BB gun when they were of similar age and we were living in Redondo Beach, CA, you can bet there would have been a multiple car "Only Ones" response.

The OIG substantiated allegations against six FBI officials as follows. The OIG investigation found that four FBI officials solicited, procured, and accepted commercial sex overseas, and that a fifth FBI official solicited commercial sex overseas, in violation of DOJ and FBI policies. The OIG investigation also found that four of those officials lacked candor about their interactions with prostitutes and other misconduct during OIG compelled interviews and compelled polygraph examinations, in violation of FBI policies, and that one of those officials made false statements in an OIG compelled interview and compelled polygraph examination in violation of federal law, when the official denied having engaged in sex acts with a prostitute.
