Garden State Variety

New Jersey became the latest state to protect individuals from civil forfeiture, which lets police and prosecutors confiscate property without ever having to charge someone with a crime. [More]

What a place to see a glimmer of real progress.

How is it the first power pervert who proposed the abomination they're correcting wasn't publicly dragged out and hanged?

Am I correct in assuming over $10K already required a conviction?

The People Have Spoken

Under the agreement, Gutierrez will receive $18,750 from taxpayers in the California coastal municipality where he lives illegally. [More]

And:

As they typically have, Democrats hold a strong edge in Laguna Beach. 

So f*** 'em.

When 'Authorized Journalists' and 'Only Ones' Collide

“I am deeply disturbed by how some sheriffs have handled a routine request for public information from a respected and established news outlet. As a result, they have put our journalists in personal danger for their own political gain. “It is a journalist’s job to investigate trends, and we do not intend on publishing personal information of private citizens. Unfortunately, the sheriffs sought to play up distrust in media when it became clear that they cannot deny access to public information.” [More]

How does that "endanger" anyone, Audrey? Like gun owners who try to obey "the law" are the problem? Belief in which, of course, is part of the plan...

The real outrage here isn't even that "permits" are so selectively "authorized"-- although if her paper wants to do something useful, they could demonstrate the bias.

The real outrage here is that "permits" to exercise a right exist at all.

Damn Racists

Using tear gas, the Mexicans dispersed the crowd, captured the migrants and put an end to the invasion... [More]

Did the evil rightwing extremist nationalists separate any families?

There's gotta be a way to monitor and incentivize this.

Life, Uh, Finds a Way

Homemade .380 submachine gun [More]

Hey, as long as they're going to make them all illegal, I won't be penalized any more for getting one that ups my capabilities.

At the Intersection of Marx and Stalin

Democrats’ ‘Equality’ Act Would Be A Big Nudge Towards A U.S. Social Credit System [More]

Uh-oh...

Is there even any point in transporting me to the camps?

And what's with "more"? I'll bet we already "give" more than 93% of the commie bedwetters, and would be able to do plenty more if they left us the f*** alone.

Nothing Succeeds Like Success

FBI Ruby Ridge siege leaves lessons for Deep State deployment against Donald Trump. [More]

That's because "getting away with it" is not a bug, it's a feature.

We're the Onry Ones Wiped Out Enough

Japanese police officers increasingly forgetting their guns in public restrooms [More]

Another endeavor where they picked up and innovated on what they learned from us...

About Last Night...

Erich Pratt's comments to the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors requesting they pass a Second Amendment Sanctuary resolution begin @ 4:40. [Watch]

I notice they didn't have much to say afterward.

And if they don't want to be "abolished"?

Where Their Interests Lie

In a just or fair system, the DOJ would not have searched for legal excuses to dismiss the lawsuit I filed to bring the abuses to light… in fact, there would be no need for me to pursue a civil court case because the DOJ would have already prosecuted the guilty parties. Yet here we are. [More]

A just and fair system would not deprive us of our rights, let alone do it in such an in-your-face manner.

That's a result of there being no credible "or else."

Anti-Violence’ Organizer Pleading Out on Gun Charge Reminiscent of Others

The projection in the gun-grabbers is strong, and it’s fair to surmise how much of not trusting others with guns arises from knowing what’s in their own hearts. [More]

Interesting characters, these "anti-violence" people...

Request Filed with DOJ for Any Record of Second Amendment Statements of Interest

So they’ll go after violations for other rights, but where the Second Amendment is concerned, state entities can do as they please without fear of federal checks? Even though infringements directly affect the “security of a free State” by disarming the citizen Militia? [More]

It's past time the Second Amendment was treated consistently by the DOJ -- especially since preventing deprivation of rights, that is, "secur[ing] the Blessings of Liberty," is a mandated prerequisite for "consent of the governed."

Lest We Forget

Full Interview with Holocaust Survivor, Theodore Haas - Holocaust Survivor Denounces Anti-Gun Movement [More]

This will be new to many, but Aaron Zelman did this 30 years ago. I'm just imagining how different things might be if this had been included in every high school history class from then to now.

Up in Smoke

As for the public, it’s navigating a minefield where the same conduct that could produce a pleasant evening could also result in a prison sentence. [More]

And the stealing of a birthright...

As Expected

The 2020 pre-session anti gun bills are now available. There are no real surprises. [More]

There'll be plenty of time for those after we've disarmed you!

By the Numbers

Nearly 4,500 people were found with guns at security checkpoints in 2019, leading to TSA firearm confiscations, setting a new record. [More]

That's a lot of dumb@$$ people. That said, before the antis all start shrieking, it sounds worse than it is when you consider practically no one had evil intent and that "Every day, the FAA's Air Traffic Organization (ATO) provides service to more than ... 2.7 million airline passengers..."

x 365 = ...

In addition to the negligent, I blame the fact that this society places such limited value on making adequate gun education an expectation.

Be It Resolved

Model Second Amendment Resolution for Counties or State Legislatures [More]

Unlike many that we've seen so far, where their hearts are in the right place, this one is based on First Principles and is written by a "lawyer, philosopher & logician [and] strict constructionist of the U.S. Constitution."

This one is specifically relevant to Virginia. If you're planning on crafting a resolution for your state, she's willing to help.

If this Kid Didn't Exist, I'm Starting to Think I'd Want to Invent Him.

Commentary here...

He gets more and more ludicrous to the point where you gotta wonder if even his fans aren't dumb enough not to realize they're being had. A part of me is starting to wonder if he may secretly be our man in the gun ban camp.

New Twist on Old Tactic

European Gun Makers Are Quietly Supplying the Mexican Drug Wars [More]

Don't worry-- the story quickly gets around to U.S. gun shops.

Curious though-- not one word about Fast and Furious.

What can I say but "Vice"?
