Hawaii Butterfly Knife Ban Challenged on Second Amendment Grounds

“Knives are arms protected by the Second Amendment,” a complaint filed Wednesday in the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii contends. [More]

If the government can get away with banning this tool, what won't it be able to infringe on?

So basically, looking at the second GIF, someone high up at ATF is trying to claim his addiction to compulsive semiautoeroticism is not of his volition?[More]

It was obvious, even at a quick glance, what had happened: This design, this composition, had been altered. The soldier’s hands were originally positioned that way to hold not a flag, but a rifle. [More]

Hey, we're lucky it wasn't a walkie-talkie.

It's the Plaintiffs I'm Worried About

Defendants are permanently enjoined from taking any action to enforce any provisions in the ESLHA Lease... [More]

I wonder how many of the beneficiaries of this order will continue to vote Democrat.

The Expendables

"Suncor’s agreement with its independent operators prohibits the carrying or possession of firearms on the property, regardless of whether the firearm is permitted. We are unable to provide additional information, as this is an employment matter between the operator and its employee." [More]

No, you are unwilling to provide additional information because it would show from a strict bean-counting point of view you frickin' frostbacks figure the bottom line would be better served with the occasional dead employee and customer.

And yo, idiot law professor: What "other way" was there?

Truth in Advertising

No irony there...

“Donald Trump is the most enthusiastic supporter of the Second Amendment to occupy the Oval Office in our lifetimes." [More]

If he keeps it up he'll be eligible to be a "true champion"!

They want their enemies maimed and/or dead, which explains this.

Their Inside Man

What's not to smile about?

There is an alternative.

But that would require those who assure us they're ready to indefinitely take on untold personal sacrifice being willing to do more than anonymously parrot "TINVOWOOT!" in blog and forum comments. So forget it.

And Molon Labe!

Limiting Message Reach

I continue to get email alerts from gun groups notifying members of some imminent development or needed action, and I continue to not be able to do a thing with them for reasons stated and repeated. Email marketing service links don't help either, as they soon go away plus someone could even unsusbscribe the original recipient.

If you want my help spreading the word on this blog or on social media, I need a good link.
