Yeah, Uh, No

The gun solution [More]
Licensing and other prior restraints ain't gonna fly.

Besides, he doesn't really think the "reducing gun deaths" misdirection is what drives the violence monopolists, does he, or that those who want it all will give anything back without a credible "or else" behind a demand?

A Point That Bears Repeating

If the federal government were to repeal the Second Amendment, it would have no effect whatsoever on my RKBA, or yours. [More]
The outrage is that anyone can reach adulthood in this country and need to have that explained to them. The principalities and powers like it like that.

Rule of Lawlessness

There’s no good reason to stop felons from voting [More]
Establishment-approved "conservative" George Will again-- figures he'd wants to give the Democrats even more of an electoral advantage.

If they're going to be set free among the rest of us, there's no good reason to stop felons from owning guns, either. The relevant question is: Can they be trusted without a custodian?

An Idea Whose Time Has Come

[A] 2nd Amendment Restoration Act must be called for, the repeal of ALL Federal gun control laws from 1934 up.  Since Prohibition was repealed in 1933, then it would also seem prudent to save the American tax payer money and call for a disbanding of the BATFE, since chasing moonshiners doesn't really justify their budget, and their other functions could be handled by other agencies. Infringements to the 2nd Amendment on the whims of a bureaucrat, would be the despotic actions of a tyrant. -- WarOnGuns Correspondent Jeffrey D, via email
I agree in principle. I wish I knew how to make it happen. I learned long ago how limited my capabilities to affect political outcomes are.

All I can really control is my will.

I can't stop others from surrendering their birthrights. I will defy and resist their claiming mine to my dying breath.

Back to the Future

California Is The Future [More]
Especially its demographics.

Good thing that has nothing to do with that "single issue."

If it did, ... what's the term they always use? "Rest assured" Fairfax would be screaming from the rooftops. And so would all the "gun bloggers."

I mean, it would only make sense.

Rest assured!

Do As We Say

De Blasio aide busted with gun in car [More]
$90K? For protecting criminals from consequences to make the "law-abiding" even more vulnerable to their predations?

Hey, it's a New York tradition. Along with connections-based patronage jobs.

But it looks like -- now that it's no longer concealable -- that snout may not be long for the trough.

They sure were quick in taking her name off the city website.

Still, who wants to bet the punishment for the judge's daughter won't be anywhere near what you or I would get?
