I've been informed that Firesign Theater references like the one used here will not be familiar to most readers under 60. I understand and accept that. Nonetheless, it has been a tradition both at WoG and at Sipsey Street before Mike died. We were delighted to find we had that in common.

The rest will either be curious enough to learn more or it will be their loss. If I were worried about visitors not getting old cultural references, I'd have to retire all kinds of recurring characters, including Skip Coolzip, and  Yul, and Fletcher, and Gomer, as well as can catchphrases like  "Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town."

A Commonsense Totalitarian Safety Law

I was going through an old FOIA response to our "bump stock" queries and came across a copy of a Dianne Feinstein press release that pretty much distills Democrat (look who signed on) "gun control" down to the basics:

Boiling Point

In re the subject of today's AmmoLand piece, War on Guns Correspondent Florida Guy asks about statutory authority for enforcers to make arrests, and whether that could be a basis for things boiling over.

It looks like what Brown's Brownshirts will be deployed under is from Article IV  of the Oregon Constitution:
Section 12. Quorum; failure to effect organization. Two thirds of each house shall constitute a quorum to do business, but a smaller number may meet; adjourn from day to day, and compel the attendance of absent members. A quorum being in attendance, if either house fail to effect an organization within the first five days thereafter, the members of the house so failing shall be entitled to no compensation from the end of the said five days until an organization shall have been effected.
and this:
2013 ORS 181.050¹ Duty to enforce laws and regulations of agencies
The state police, with the approval of the Governor, may be called upon by any other branch or department of the state government to enforce criminal laws or any regulation of such branch or department. [Amended by 1971 c.58 §1]
Noting how, like a typical tyrant, Brown disregards laws she opposes (including and especially "the supreme Law of the Land"), I'd say things could still boil over.

Void for Vagueness

In our constitutional order, a vague law is no law at all. Only the people’s elected representatives in Congress have the power to write new federal criminal laws. And when Congress exercises that power, it has to write statutes that give ordinary people fair warning about what the law demands of them. Vague laws transgress both of those constitutional requirements. They hand off the legislature’s responsibility for defining criminal behavior to unelected prosecutors and judges, and they leave people with no sure way to know what consequences will attach to their conduct. When Congress passes a vague law, the role of courts under our Constitution is not to fashion a new, clearer law to take its place, but to treat the law as a nullity and invite Congress to try again. [More]
Sounds good to me and gun owners running afoul of a federal "crime" while armed may come to appreciate the ruling.  The real issue seems to be not one of a precedent that will let the violent out early now, but that those still violent are let out at all.

Environmentalcase Hypocrisy

And this does not?

Remember when Clinton appointee Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled in favor of the Bradys, presuming authority to deny our right to possess the means of defense until an "environmental impact study" had been performed to say it was OK?

Funny-- since her ruling was never overturned by a higher court (a Congressional rider on a credit card bill allowed it instead), stare decisis ought to still apply over executive actions in her district.  Anybody know if environmental impact studies have been done on the deliberate bypassing of all those lawfully-enacted immigration laws? What about a precedent-based lawsuit?

And it's not just desert trash, that just provides for a telling visual but it's a small part of the overall impact. More energy needs to be generated, more infrastructure is needed, more cars are on the road "thanks" to driver's licenses for illegals, more trash and sewage is generated everywhere they go...

Democrats care as much about the environment as they do about racism-- what they care about is if they can exploit an issue to seize more power.
