It's almost like there's an agenda or something...

Independence is Personal

Freedom is earned, not granted.

Risky Business

It's part of a years-long push within the court that began with the late justice Antonin Scalia against catchall legal clauses that punish the risk of violence rather than actual violence. [More]

Kind'a like here...?

Someone Has to Say It

Jane Curtin on CNN: 'My New Year's Resolution Is to Make Sure That the Republican Party Dies' [More]

Speaking of Character...

[T]he president has not risen to the mantle of the office... [More]

So why accept his endorsement?

What a self-serving phony.

That Dog Don't Hunt

I assume Fudd here does. [More]

We seek not your counsel nor your arms. Enjoy the ducks.

Defying Pundits

GOP share of Latino vote steady under Trump - In November's elections, 32 percent of Latinos voted for Republicans, frustrating Democrats, according to AP VoteCast data. [More]

What, a supermajority of 68%, which some of us have been pointing to all along, is not enough?

But don't take my word for it. Listen to California Republican strategist Mike Madrid:

"That is contributing to the death spiral of the Republican Party — even if it holds at 30 percent," Madrid said. "That's a route to death, it's just a slower one."

Keep in mind that "Republican" is a "Big Tent" that includes its share of gun-grabbers.

Good thing Democrats being in charge of everything has nothing to do with that "single issue."

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Staunch' Is

Those who think ‘we the people’ should possess such weapons are truly not helping the argument for the pro-gun side. [More]

Gun owners who parrot the "Second Amendment = permit" nonsense have automatically ceded authority to infringe.

Keep Out!

Zuckerberg — or a limited liability corporation he controls — could now bid on the properties in a “partition auction” early next year. [More]

Open borders where anyone can get in are for little people.

An 'A'-Rating

“The 2nd Amendment protects the rights of every American, but it does not relieve us from a responsibility to keep weapons out of the hands of violent criminals, suspected terrorists and the mentally unstable,” Ms. Cobb said in the statement. [More]

"Suspected"? And what about reality?

And we wonder why New York is screwed...

Out With the Old, In With the New

Because, very simply, you have to GO so they can take your place. [More]

Sorry, when we said "diversity and inclusion," we meant after you're gone.

But I LOVE Him...

...your abusive partner demands money to fix the injuries he inflicted upon you... [More]

Sound like anybody you know...?

Setting the Bar Too High

Q: What kind of “criminal justice researcher” doesn’t bother to learn the laws she’s “researching”? [More]

Since when is knowing what they're talking about a prerequisite for those inciting mobs?

New Intolerable Acts for 2019

There will be a 72 hour waiting period for all gun purchases. This closes the gun show loophole for purchases made by a non-resident. [More]

The ones who by law are already "recognised by the Illinois Department of State Police"...?  Speaking of which, they still have their exemption, let us pray...

At least the new guilty-until-innocent gun confiscation edict will be offset by letting deer hunters wear pink. The Founders would be proud.

Moms Demand Action Largely Silent on Overt Women’s March Racism

In addition to supporting cultural/electoral terraforming (one of their backers is George Soros, after all), it comes a no surprise that one of the many other actions on the Women’s March agenda is clemency for Cyntoia Brown, convicted of premeditated murder for shooting a sleeping man in the back of the head before stealing his money, guns and truck. So naturally, the “commonsense gun safety law advocates” at Moms Demand Action are all about joining forces with their sisters in disarmament. [More]

And they call US "racists."  For "progressives," every day is Opposite Day.

‘Bump Stock’ Lawsuit Makes Unique Points to Seek Injunction against Ban

One other factor makes this complaint unique, and that involves a “bump stock” I own that started life as an Akins Accelerator. [More]

Once more unto the breach, dear friends...

Blasts from the Past

I'm waiting for AmmoLand to finish site maintenance so I can input my article about the "bump stock" lawsuit I'm a plaintiff in, and expect it will be posted by tonight.

In the mean time, seeing as how one of the core issues is ATF making arbitrary and contradictory rules, the thought occurs that many here now were not around almost a decade ago, and current events have jogged my memory about tangentially-related f***-ups.

These are Internet Archive/Wayback Machine links to two of my old "Gun Rights Examiner" articles.  As such, embedded internal links may no longer work.

• ATF position on pistol grip 'shotguns' creates new danger 
• ATF testimony admits many unregistered machine guns allowed by ruling

Like they say, close enough for government wet work...

New York Times Proposes Controlling ‘Legal’ Gun Ownership via Banks

And what those would need in order to be “effective” is an end to cash firearm transactions and private sales.  And the credit card purchase records would be de facto registration, meaning finding who bought something that’s now banned or what’s in a “red-flagged” gun owner’s safe. [More]

What's in YOUR gun safe?

It Depend Upon what the Meaning of the Word 'Uninformed' Is

The DA’s office did not lie about anything and neither did the officers. The author of this article is completely uninformed about the facts of the case. [More]

Linking to and quoting from the judge's suppression order and presenting a screen shot of the police transcript equates with me being "completely uninformed"? Just on "Anthony's" say-so?

I wonder who he and "Tom" work for...
