Judge alleges ‘fraud on the court’ by government attorneys in Dobyns case
“[T]he court ... issued an order voiding the prior judgment based upon indications that the defendant [ATF], through its counsel, had committed fraud on the court,” Allegra wrote. “[F]raud on the court consists of conduct: 1. On the part of an officer of the court; 2. That is directed to the ‘judicial machinery’ itself; 3. That is intentionally false, willfully blind to the truth, or is in reckless disregard for the truth; 4. That is positive averment or is concealment when one is under duty to disclose; 5. That deceives the court.” [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report provides further evidence of the corrupt arrogance that is the trademark of Eric Holder's Justice Department, which itself has the tone set for what it thinks it can get away with by the Obama administration.
As with "Fast and Furious," this is dangerous stuff to be involved with unless and until it can gain wider exposure, and if it does, those bringing this information out can expect to be mercilessly smeared. Still, and because of that, I'm asking everyone who considers him or herself a Bill of Rights advocate to take action by sharing this far and wide, including chiding other media to report on this, and by making investigation expectations known to Rep Chaffetz of House Oversight (@jasoninthehouse) and Sen Grassley of Senate Judiciary (@ChuckGrassley).
As "experience hath shewn," exposure and light are the best defenses against corruption relying on staying hidden in the shadows.

Gumbel hatred for ‘pig’ gun owners not uncommon for establishment sports media
"There are a few things I hate more than the NRA,” Gumbel admitted. “I mean truly.”
What those “few things” are remained unstated. ISIL? Communism? Nazism? Murderers? Child molesters?

Virginia Lobby Day highlighted effective gun rights activism
On Monday, I made it to the General Assembly building at around 10 a.m. The weather was as perfect as one could hope for this time of year, sunny and warming into the 50s. VCDL activist teams had already been busy meeting with legislators since 8:30, and the rally with speakers was scheduled to start at 11. In contrast to the hysterical reaction we saw recently in Washington State, many of the activists were armed, and those with concealed carry permits could even open carry inside the building as a matter of course and without causing a massive freak-out. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report shares experiences and impressions from my trip to Virginia. It also includes an embedded video of my speech and a link to Emily Miller's, as well as several photos of the pre-event dinner and Lobby Day itself.

As long as the prudes (and what else are prohibitionists?) are going to treat us as one and the same, why not find common interests? Again, as with the weed people or Pink Pistols, tolerance doesn't require you to personally accept or approve of the way others chose their pursuit of happiness, just that you don't try to impose your way on peaceable human beings through force or fraud.
We each have one life to live, and a guarantee is we'll all experience our share of pain, either self-created or imposed. It doesn't make moral sense adding to the portion of another -- unless they allow you no choice but a defensive response.
Besides, even after checking out their "particular set of skills" (just so I could do my due diligence and save you the arduous task of detailed research, you understand) I find these ladies a lot more wholesome than the repressed control freaks who base their entire existence on bending others to their will. Talk about obscene.

Is the Sky at Least Sagging a Bit?
You may hear other gun groups squawking about the sky falling and needing your money to stop it from happening. DO NOT BE FOOLED, these anti-gun bills WILL NOT be passing. Instead we encourage you to save that money to spend on fun stuff, like ammunition, training or a NFA tax stamp for the suppressors that will soon be legal in Iowa! [More]I'm all for not diverting money to phony appeals. That said, I'd be interested in hearing what these folks have to say. I don't know that there's ever a time where we've got things so under control we no longer need to stay on high alert, and if we've entered a period where the likelihood of threat success is reduced, it would seem the best time to do some reclamation work.
That's not to say ignore "fun stuff," because "pursuit of happiness" is a big part of "the blessings of Liberty," although I personally am not inclined to register my property and pay for the intrusion to boot.
Different individuals and groups have different tactics. It's our job to evaluate them and decide which ones work for us. In order to do that, we need to know about them.

The Wrong Damned Argument
"The firearms here are without question some of the most commonly used. One out of nine guns sold since the invention of AR-type rifles is an AR rifle." [More]Fine, but that's tangential to the core "common use" issue.
The function of the militia, defined as “all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense [and] bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time,” was — and is — to field citizen soldiers. And these citizens bore arms that were suitable for that purpose, “ordinary military equipment” intended to be taken into “common defense” battles. They came with the intent to match and best a professional military threat.
From U.S. v. Miller, the court looked for "“some reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well regulated militia [or] that this weapon is any part of the ordinary military equipment, or that its use could contribute to the common defense.”
Why isn't lawyer James Vogts reminding the judges of that? And why don't they already know it?
Or do they?

Powerful New York gun ban politician arrested for bribery, kickbacks
As such, Silver has been a leading proponent of “gun control” throughout his terms of office, including being a driving force behind passing Governor Andrew Cuomo’s “SAFE” Act. In 2012, Silver pushed through a package of bills after the Sandy Hook killings, using that as the springboard to enact legislation that had failed to be enacted in prior years, including microstamping, gun locks and “closing loopholes.” He stated his post-Newtown goal flatly, to impose “a complete ban on assault weapons.” [More]Oh look.

Tackling the Solution, Not the Problem

The incident lends itself to a discussion on the need to keep concealed carry discreet, and then on the value open carry can have on "normalizing" the sight of armed citizens. It also shows that no one is immune to a surprise attack when they don't know they are being targeted -- even had the armed victim here been in "condition yellow," the circumstances shown in the video make it unlikely he'd have had time to defend himself, and based on the motives of the attacker and the ultimate outcome, he's probably relieved he did not respond with lethal force.

Neighbors had been pleading with town officials to tear down the house of the mass murderer, with one resident saying it's "a constant reminder of the evil that resided there." [More]Blaming an inanimate object ... why that's certainly never been done before.

But this sentiment that the house itself is evil -- that smacks of government by superstition, which I suppose is as good a definition of "progressivism" as any.

Gun rights activist David Codrea was there to challenge legislation that he fears could result in the disarmament of citizens. [More]Kelsey and Lyndsey, it's not like I'm unapproachable or unreachable. Instead of leaping to illusions, you could have talked with me. I don't fear legislation will disarm all gun owners, just the ones who won't matter in what comes next.
“I once had a boss who taught me the correct way to pronounce that is McAwful. Who said, in his state of the Commonwealth address – this is what the guy says: ‘As a gun owner myself, I fully believe that law abiding citizens have a right and responsible to carry fire arms, but …’ Stop right there.

“It’s really not about guns, it’s about freedom,” gun-rights advocate and author David Codrea told the crowd. “Work with us or we will work to retire you,” he said, addressing lawmakers.
He finished his remarks with a bang, shouting “I will not disarm!” and garnering cheers from the crowd. [More]Kathy, when we spoke, I shared with you that Virginians for Responsible Gun Laws does not appear on Guidestar, is not registered as a nonprofit with the Secretary of State, and has it's website registered through a proxy.

Je Suis Humain
Still, a prominent European Jewish leader coming to the recognition that arms in private hands can protect individuals and communities from those who would eliminate them should be seen as a welcome and significant change in outlook, and one that domestic Kapos for Kristallnacht would do well to recognize. That will becomes increasingly apparent as decentralized sleeper cells in the U.S. begin to awaken, particularly when they make a special point of targeting American Jews. [More]My latest JPFO Alert notes a paradigm that may be shifting.
Speaking of Spurious
The spurious conclusions in these surveys don’t just distort the pro-gun community’s perception of defensive gun use. For example, the claim that millions every year shoot their guns in self-defense has led some to posit that there are more defensive gun uses than criminal uses. [More]Who makes that claim? The figures I've seen generally include the qualifier "without a shot being fired."
I know I experienced a DGU under those conditions, it was no myth, and I'm damn glad I had a gun, although it never made it into "the record" because I couldn't report it to the police afterward. Stupid citizen disarmament edicts hive insects like this lie to provide false cover for enacting precluded that.
Not that it would matter to Evan Defilippis and Devin Hughes, who would rather you and I be dead than armed.

Operation Strangle Point
DOJ accused of blocking legal gun shops, other businesses from banking [More]That's because they're criminals working for tyrants, and they hate us.
The thing is, when the guy from the U.S. Consumer Coalition says "This is one of the greatest abuses of power that the country has never heard of," some of us roll our eyes.
That stuff never makes the supermarket checkout tabloids that refocus so many of our pre-cannibal food fellow "citizens."

The Right Thing to Do
PARA USA regrets its decision to provide firearms for use in the film "Taken 3". While the film itself is entertaining, comments made by its Irish-born star during press junkets reflect a cultural and factual ignorance that undermines support of the Second Amendment and American liberties. We will no longer provide firearms for use in films starring Liam Neeson and ask that our friends and partners in Hollywood refrain from associating our brand and products with his projects. Further, we encourage our partners and friends in the firearms industry to do the same. [More]Excellent. It's nice to see companies that promote principles, especially when some pay big money to get their products showcased in major motion pictures due to the promotional value.

Prosecutor to Pokey-Poke
Screwy screw youey you... [More]
And in the interests of truly equal justice, I'm still wondering why new charges haven't been filed...
And as far as this goes: I'm suspicious that all reports up until recently said Pokey took the guy's eye out, and this new disclaimer didn't come out until a reputation cleanup bid was made. I'd be interested to see if the victim has suddenly come into some money.

BREAKING NEWS!!! HOLD THE PRESSES!!!
Man, anything to tie a celebrity in with citizen disarmament and milk an old story, eh, Marc Malkin...? [More]
He even linked to his own piece from a year ago.
But I guess the part about "progressive" (Opposite Day) Penn not being satisfied with French citizen disarmament and wanting to give terrorists who ignore such foolish "laws" even more of an advantage was all the excuse needed to shake off an old piece and give it a new purse. It also gave Marc a chance to re-spread Penn's "cowardly killing machines" line, probably to try and convince himself and like-minded anti-gun males that the inadequacy is not theirs. It is.
Funny, how he didn't explore the reason behind Penn's projections of cowardice on others. Just consider that comes from a "man" who beats women and, if he didn't have elite connections, would have been designated a "prohibited person" by law.
Ah well, his work here is done. Marc is on the trail of important, manly stuff, like Nicole Kidman's favorite dress of all time.
"Authorized Journalists"/Fourth Estate Fifth Columnists (or as Dianne Feinstein calls them, "real reporters" and Joe Biden refers to as "legitimate news media"): Is it any wonder we all should respect them so?

Campus Carry Hurdle in Florida
The Florida House Criminal Justice Subcommittee meets Tuesday, January 20th, at 4:00 pm in Tallahassee to consider Campus Carry. This year’s Florida legislative session is shaping up to be a battle for self-defense rights. The first bill to be reviewed in committee will be a Campus Carry bill that was filed after a mentally ill attorney attacked students studying in the FSU library by opening fire on defenseless students and university employees. [More]You gotta wonder about the mental health of anyone in the legislature who would attack student rights...
Anyway, if you're from Florida, go to the link and do what they ask. If you're not from Florida, send it to friends who are.
And yeah, I'm presuming those you call "friend" support gun rights, because anyone who supports your disarmament is, by their sentiments and actions, your enemy.
Saddle Up
MIDNIGHT RIDE will immortalize Oath Keepers' stand against the militarization of police and will show clearly why Oath Keepers rejects the coming "martial law".

Also, I see they've redesigned their site.
This Day in History: January 16
Commanding officers of Lines from which there are soldiers absent attending as servants or officers who have retired in consequence of the late arrangement, or left the service in any other way; will direct in pointed terms all such soldiers to join their corps without delay—and in case they shall neglect to comply with the order, their names, together with the names and ranks of the officers by whom they are retained, must be immediately reported to Head Quarters, that proper measures may be taken to enforce obedience.

And the Winner IS...
Not gun owners, that's for sure.
Remember the other day, when I talked about a guy endorsed by both Bloomberg AND NRA being pressured by Gabby?
Guess which side he chose. And who he kissed off and betrayed.
Rick Snyder joins Bill Brown and Kirsten Gillibrand and a host of others over the years. Some day when I have the time (like that'll happen any time soon) I ought to do a compilation and maybe come up with a GunJudas award.

First Reports
Only 200? The "unofficial" rally last month had ten times that number. [More]
Plus I was told at least half were from the "no compromise" group, that is borne out by the fact that most brought firearms, despite being asked not to.
The paradigm has changed. I need to expand on that, but not for a while--busier than I can keep up with here today, with a JPFO draft due tonight, and I also still need to write my speech...

Submit or Die
A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION ENACTING AND ORDERING THE SUBMISSION TO THE PEOPLE OF A MEASURE RELATING TO FIREARMS. [More]Yeah, well, uh...
Listen, send the kids out of the room for a minute?
All clear?
No, I'm not going to let them provoke me into losing my composure, but you know what I was going to say to "Sponsors" Randall Friese, Charlene Fernandez, Rosanna Gabaldón, Stefanie Mach, Victoria Steele, and Albert Hale.
Some of us won't surrender to traitors. And it looks like the same cabal is behind this abomination.
Yeah, I know, these won't pass -- now. But 10 years from now, all bets will be off. And it's why the Bloombergians, like all childish creatures, ever impatient with their demands to have it all NOW, are circumventing the legislatures.
What all need to understand is some of us will not comply and will not disarm.
Their move.

Jour Opposé
You can also go to jail for using speech to defy the government. This past weekend, millions of folks in France wore buttons and headbands that proclaimed in French: “I am Charlie Hebdo.” Those whose buttons proclaimed “I am not Charlie Hebdo” were asked by the police to remove them. Those who wore buttons that proclaimed, either satirically or hatefully, “I am Kouachi” were arrested. Arrested for speech at a march in support of free speech? Yes. [More]Yep. "Progressives."
Right down to the most important part.
I wonder if I'd get arrested for this? I mean, just for expressing it...

The Fast Track
In “fast track,” Congress passes a bill which delegates to Barack Obama the legislative authority to do anything he wants -- ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING -- so long as he includes it in a “trade agreement.” [More]Yeah, exactly what this "A-rated" Republimole and his establishment handlers want us to do, forsaking all other priorities.
Do I dare mention this one to the bridge club, because we could use those explosives about now...?
The Shallow End
For those who have yet to dip their toe into the water... [More]
With all those years of indoctrination, hopefully this will do some good. I would be interested to hear if there are any polite "concessions" the guy from "our side" will make to appear "reasonable."
The Parable of the Bridge Builder
One team member distinguished himself by helping get them supplies and equipment, to the point where he was honored as a champion of the effort. But at night, he would lower explosives from the scaffolding to another team that was waiting below to sabotage the bridge and bring it crashing down.
Another team member noticed and alerted the others. This upset the team leaders very much.
So they ignored the team member who issued the warning, and reminded everyone of all the "good" their "champion" had done for the cause.
Oh, and thanks, Mike.
A White People Thing
Well, as long as they're compelled to support a cause, I suppose Ripe Celebrity Skanks Against Cleanliness (RCSAC) is as good a group as any... [More]

The evacuation of Charlestown has increased the sterility of the south in news. It is said, but I cannot determine with what truth, that considerable purchases have been made of the british goods found there: and that a great quantity of them is destined for Virginia. Great stratagem must be used to accomplish their introduction here, and North Carolina has shewn by a late condemnation of a cargo of british goods that they will not be suffered to pass thro’ her territory without arrest.

Washington ‘rights’ rally to headline supporter of ‘gun control’ politicians
Anyone who helps citizen disarmament advocates gain power is no true friend to gun owners and has no business being presented as one. And anyone who politically supports someone playing to both sides of the street likewise relegates gun rights to a lower priority than doctrinaire political and economic special interests. To them, the Second Amendment comes second, or third, or even lower. No amount of pointing out what bills have been advanced or voted on “the right way,” and no amount of “dinner dates” can alter that fundamental reality. [More]I expect this one will lose me some "friends." They won't be able to refute what I've said, but they'll be pissed off anyway. I really don't care enough to hold back. Anyone who thinks I do this to be universally agreed with hasn't been paying attention.

Human silhouette target ban bill shows absurd dangers of anti-gun ‘solutions’
Still, why stop at silhouettes? What about targets that actually show figures of people? What about popular “zombie” targets? They’re not human any more, are they? Fortunately, for Kirkland’s esteemed "peace officers," they’ll still be able to blow away “No More Hesitation” models of “white-privileged” pregnant women and kids, at least while their already-purchased supplies last. And I guess as long as we’re exploring the absurd, another ridiculous question or two is in order: Could I have a silhouette target of someone who looks human, but isn't? For some reason Star Trek’s android Data comes to mind... [More]Just when you thought the antis couldn't get any more ridiculous...
