Just Securing the Power Here...
Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper on Friday vetoed legislation implementing a voter photo identification mandate that was added to the state's constitution in a recent referendum, teeing up a likely veto override by Republican lawmakers. [More]So will we hear a word from any "gun groups" on why this threatens them so? Did we hear any before the election, when he made his views known?

Unfortunately, while the law may eventually be found unjust and overturned, today it is the law. Second Amendment Organization is a staunch advocate of Gun Rights, but those rights are defined by our laws. [More]It depends upon what the meaning of the word "staunch" is?

Church Killer would have been a Threat Even if Air Force had Reported Him
While some are learning details of what a violent misfit the killer was from the IG report, there’s really not much new in it, at least for AmmoLand readers. Regulars will recall an exclusive from last May featuring the transcript of Kelley’s court-martial obtained after first filing a Freedom of Information Act request with the Air Force, and then filing a lawsuit to get them to comply. You’ll find many of the details contained in this new report were made public over half-a-year ago. [More]Who thinks submitting required reports would have defused this ticking time bomb?
We're the Only Ones Safening Enough
“The seizure of two assault rifles, a tactical shotgun and 10 handguns, along with over 110,000 decks of heroin and more than 1,000 grams of cocaine, means that our streets are safer as a result of these arrests,” Ambrose said. [More]How much safer, Director Ambrose?

He Says That Like It's a Good Thing
They could give Trump the $5 billion he is asking for to begin construction of the wall, in exchange for a path to citizenship for the nearly 2 million "dreamers" -- illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States as children through no fault of their own...Then, when Democrats take the majority next year, they could offer him the remaining $15 billion to $20 billion he needs to finish the wall, in exchange for legal status for the other 11 million people here in the country illegally. The wall could buy legal status for every illegal immigrant living in the shadows -- a longtime Democratic priority. *And why do you think that is a Democrat priority, Marc Thiessen?

Former Congressman John Dingell, Jr., a partisan Democrat whose immediate family has controlled the same seat in the House of Representatives for 86 years, has some suggestions for fixing Congress.

- Why should teachers try to avoid saying his last name? Make unacceptable reactions the problem of those doing the reacting. Treat them the same way they'd be treated if they were being cruel to a gender "reassignee."
- The

Bruce Jones wasn’t “lost to gun violence.” This is a man who nearly pummeled a young woman to death with his bare hands. The reason he died was because Aubrey was defending herself from him. [More]That reminds me of the Bloomberg Bus Tour:
At its stop a few days earlier in N.H., while reading off their list of “victims of gun violence,” the group called out the name of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev ... Tsarnaev wasn’t the only problematic inclusion.
"A preliminary analysis of the list of shooting ‘victims’ … finds that one in 12 are crime suspects killed by police or armed citizens acting in self-defense,” the Washington Examiner reported. “The review of 617 killings found that 50 were suspects in crimes ranging from assault to murder…”[Via William T]
About Those 'Swarms of Officers'...
The real win, however, would be for gun owners. Specifically, if Congress decides to rule in Kisor's favor, it means the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) could be reigned in. [More]"Reined."
And I'm not holding my breath.
Dems and Swampublicans are intent to go after more control, not less, Kavanaugh just gave us a glimpse of his inner Souter, and those with coercive power never willingly give it up unless there's a credible and personal "or else" attached to an ultimatum.
Even if the case settles favorably, expect guns to continue receiving second-class treatment.
