Sen. Ed Markey’s (D-Mass.) little-known 3D Printed Gun Safety Act (S. 2319) would criminalize sharing firearm schematics for 3D printers online. 3D printing describes a process that allows people to “print” 3D models for various items. These models range from small tools, art projects, and shapes up to functional firearms. Critics of the practice have called these 3D-printed firearms “ghost guns” because they lack serial numbers and are difficult for law enforcement to trace. Despite their relative novelty, 3D-printed firearms have a rich legal history. In 2018, Congress passed the Export Control Reform Act (ECRA), a foreign policy bill designed to restrict enemies’ access to U.S.-made munitions. In March 2020, 22 states argued that 3D firearm schematics violated ECRA because they were accessible to foreign enemies. They brought suit against Defense Distributed (D.D.), a firm that provided schematics for 3D firearms. The plaintiffs argued that these schematics would cause them “irreparable injury.” Seattle District Judge Robert Lasnik agreed and issued an injunction against D.D. (pdf). The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals heard the case again this year on Apr. 27. The panel concluded in a split decision that courts had no say in the matter, asserting that “Congress expressly precluded judicial review … here,” and overturned the injunction against D.D. (pdf). After this decision, the Justice Department proposed new regulations on 3D-printed guns. First, retailers would be required to run a background check on customers before selling kits containing necessary materials to print a firearm. Second, kits would be required to include a serial number on the frame or the receiver to make them more traceable. Finally, firearms dealers would be mandated to add a serial number to any guns they bought that did not have one. Markey’s S.2319 would concretize federal rules against the distribution of 3D gun files. The bill alleges that these schematics “increase the risk that … felons, domestic abusers, and other people prohibited from possessing firearms under Federal law, will obtain a firearm through 3D printing.” Because these 3D guns are not traceable, S.2319 says, they are appealing to criminals. S.2319 goes on to warn that such schematics “threaten to undermine the entire Federal firearms regulatory scheme and to endanger public safety and national security.” To address this alleged risk, the bill would make it “unlawful for any person to intentionally distribute … code that can automatically program a 3-dimensional printer or similar device to produce a firearm or complete a firearm from an unfinished frame or receiver.” Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) joined Markey in introducing the bill in the Senate. In a press release, Markey said of the bill: “With no background check required, untraceable and undetectable 3D printed guns serve as the ultimate gun-acquisition loophole. With the click of a mouse, anyone can download a computer file and use a 3D printer to manufacture a semi-automatic weapon. We cannot allow the online availability of downloadable firearms to add fuel to the fire that already is a massive gun violence public safety crisis.” Menendez expressed the same concerns, saying: “With the click of a mouse, anyone with an internet connection and a 3D printer essentially has a license to print, shoot and kill. Undetectable and untraceable 3D-printed guns allow criminals to circumvent law enforcement and commit crimes. That’s why we must close the ‘3D Gun Loophole’ that allows dangerous individuals to exploit gaps in existing law to manufacture firearms at home they cannot otherwise legally obtain.” s.2319 currently has 27 Democrat co-sponsors in the Senate. As of Monday, it remains in the Judiciary Committee. Still, with so many sponsors in the Senate, it is possible that Democrats may try to move the little-known bill out of committee for floor debate at some point. Even with the numerical Democratic majority, it would face a tough battle. Earlier this year, moderate Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W. Va.) said that he opposed Democratic gun control legislation in the House. If Manchin were to defect and join Republicans, then the bill would not pass without a Republican taking Manchin’s place and joining Democrats. However, passing Congress would only be the first step for S.2319. Afterward, it would doubtless face legal challenges from D.D. and gun rights advocacy groups like Gun Owners of America. In an interview with The Epoch Times, a spokesman for the Libertarian Party criticized the bill as impractical. He asked, “How would [the government] even enforce this law?” Later, he answered his own question, saying that “It would require Soviet- and CCP- levels of control [over citizens’ lives].” He also referenced litigation revolving around the issue of 3D schematics and doubted in the wake of this litigation that the bill could survive the courts. He referenced several cases and government settlements revolving around the issue. In August 2017, D.D. sued the State Department and asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear their case against it. D.D. claimed that the State Department barring their right to distribute 3D schematics online constituted a violation of the First Amendment. Though the Supreme Court declined to hear the case, the State Department eventually reached a settlement with D.D. that gave the firm a license to publish the schematics and a cash payment of $40,000. Heather Nauert, a spokesman for the State Department, said in a press conference that the agency agreed to this decision because “We were informed that we … have likely lost this case in court … on First Amendment grounds.” In 1996, the Ninth Circuit Appellate Court ruled that source code was protected under the First Amendment (Bernstein v. U.S.). Because schematics like those provided by D.D. are a type of source code, standing U.S. law would prohibit restrictions like those found in S.2319. Thus, the law would raise criticisms as a violation of the First Amendment. And indeed, the law’s authors had a preconception of this risk. The final clause in Sec. 3 of the bill says that “by making illegal the distribution of certain computer code that can be used … [to] create firearms … Congress seeks not to regulate the rights of computer programmers under the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, but rather to curb the pernicious effects of untraceable … firearms.” Though the Supreme Court has refused to take the case in the past, it’s almost inevitable that S.2319 would go before the highest court if this legislation were passed. The result would be a huge landmark for gun control advocates if the Supreme Court upheld the law and a huge landmark for gun rights groups if the law were struck down. Either way, the legislation will have long-lasting national consequences if it is passed by Congress and signed into law.

David Hogg's Anti-Gun Campaign 'Fades Into Darkness' As Millennials Embrace Second Amendment https://themachinegunnest.com/blog/ https://twitter.com/SanctuaryCounty/status/1406765385479774218 https://www.newsweek.com/americans-under-30-have-rapidly-turned-against-gun-... https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/trend-has-flipped-millennials-are-act... https://sanctuarycounties.com/2021/06/20/more-than-61-of-american-counties-a... I don't have Twitter. If I did have Twitter, I'd only be following Bitcoin and meme stocks. I feel sorry for those constantly exposed to the political opinions of 14-year-old children amplified by their usefulness to "the narrative." The Argentinian Philosopher Carlos Bernardo González Pecotche surmised that the world is in turmoil because people don't know where their thoughts originate. The opinions of others enter their heads, and those people feel like the thoughts are their own. Not realizing that they've been programmed. David Hogg is one of those people on Twitter who I'm glad is slowly fading into irrelevancy. He's a professional anti-gun activist (with armed bodyguards, of course.) He's one of the founding members of the March for Our Lives organization, a non-profit almost entirely propped up by donations from the top 1% of the country and billionaires like Michael Bloomberg. Recently, Hogg has been on a tweetstorm, and it's caught headlines in the firearms media world. Here's what he had to say: Ask yourselves in the history books we will write about you how do you want to be remembered? Weak and corrupt people that worked to protect people like the 19 year old that killed my classmates and teachers OR as people that protect our kids and teachers right to not be shot? — David Hogg (@davidhogg111) September 24, 2021 You can practically see the mental pat on the back that he's giving himself while writing the tweet. But immaturity isn't necessarily the point here. Although Hogg himself is insufferable, this is also how he makes his living. Saying ridiculous things on the internet as bait for others to react keeps him from fading into irrelevancy. I want to take a second to address David Hogg and respond to this tweet. I'm assuming that he thinks that he's speaking for young people in general, or maybe young liberals. Either way, I believe that he's first wrong (read: "The Trend Has Flipped: Millennials Are Actually Buying Guns") to assume he's in the majority and second, naive to think that people don't have differing political views from himself—especially young people. I'm 28 years old. I grew up with Liberal baby-boomer parents and am a product of the early 2000s. I had school shooter drills in high school, bomb threats, and more. I am staunchly pro-gun. Many more people my age are as well. Interestingly, younger people are increasingly opposed to gun control, with the percentage of people under 30 that support stricter gun laws dropping from 65% to 45% since 2018. Gun owners are incredibly diverse. Young and old, people of all cultures, races, and political opinions own firearms. I'm not sure if there's anything that supersedes cultural and political divides, like the right to own a gun. And if the recent surge in gun buying (read: here & here) has shown us anything, when the chips are down, and it's time to take self-defense seriously- people who were once opposed to guns buy guns. We experienced a ton of that firsthand here at TMGN. Nationwide more than 9 million people became first-time gun owners in 2020 and 2021, which continues to rise. Now, you probably already know this but March for Our Lives is not a grassroots organization. Major million-dollar donations almost entirely fund it. Only 0.5% of their entire revenue is from donations totaling less than $5,000. Some real journalists looked at the group's 990 tax form showing that out of the $18.6M that March for Our Lives collected in donations during 2018, $17.8M came from about 74 people donating between $5000.00 and $3,504,717.00. So, David Hogg would like us to believe that there's some army of young progressive anti-gun voters out there looking to wipe away these evil old boomers (who are some of the most prominent supporters of gun control, ironically). Yet, his entire organization is mainly supported by 78 wealthy donors. (If you dive into the data, 36 donors made donations between $100,000 and $3.5M, so maybe it's just 36 people who support Hogg). Here's the thing, since the Heller decision in 2008, gun rights have been rapidly expanding. The landscape isn't what it was in the 1990s. AR15s are no longer weird, quirky firearms that a few hobbyists own; they're recognized as modern-day muskets. The right to carry a concealed firearm has been significantly expanded since the 1980s, and every day more and more young people get into the sport of shooting and exercise their 2nd Amendment right. David Hogg should come to try firearms for himself; he might just change his mind. The recent gun-buying craze sparked by the pandemic and social unrest has begun to truly express younger Americans and minorities and women's Second Amendment rights like never before. These new gun owners are also across all political spectrums and suggest Hogg's movement is fading into the darkness. * * * One thing that David Hogg and liberal media don't want you to see is the massive surge in Second Amendment sanctuaries at the state, county, and local levels.

The Supreme Showdown: Bruen Has This Makings Of A Major Second Amendment Victory https://jonathanturley.org/2021/11/02/the-supreme-showdown-bruen-has-this-ma... https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/gun-rights-case-supreme-court-barrett-jonath... https://www.oyez.org/cases/2007/07-290 https://www.oyez.org/cases/2009/08-1521 https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/07-290.ZS.html https://casetext.com/statute/consolidated-laws-of-new-york/chapter-penal/par... On Wednesday, the Supreme Court will take up arguably the oldest and most controversial right in our history. New York State Rifle Association v. Bruen is the first major gun rights case in over ten years to come before the Supreme Court and it has the makings of a major gun rights victory in the making. The case concerns concealed-carry restrictions under N.Y. Penal Law § 400.00(2)(f) that require a showing of “proper cause.” Lower courts have upheld the New York law, but there are ample constitutional concerns over its vague standard, such as showing that you are “of good moral character.” New York wants to exercise discretion in deciding who needs to carry guns in public while gun owners believe that the law flips the constitutional presumption in favor of such a right. There are few constitutional rights that have been debated so long in this country as gun rights. Indeed, before other Englishmen were given a written guarantee of the right to bear arms, colonists in Virginia in 1607 were given such a written guarantee by the Crown. Since that time, the right to bear arms has been an engrained part of our culture and ultimately our Constitution. Despite that history, the meaning of the right has remained the subject of heated debate. That is evident from the fact that it was not until 2008 that the Supreme Court finally recognized the right to bear arms as an individual right in District of Columbia v. Heller. Two years after Heller, in McDonald v. City of Chicago, the court ruled that this right applied against the states. This is actually the second time in two years that the New York State Rifle Association has come knocking on the door of the Supreme Court. The Association previously challenged a New York law that imposed stringent conditions on the ability of gun owners to even transport their guns outside of their homes. The law was viewed by some of us as unconstitutional under existing case law, but New York politicians insisted that it would be defended all the way up to the Supreme Court. However, when the Court called their bluff and accepted the case, those politicians quickly changed the law and pulled the case before the Court could rule. The bait-and-switch incensed members of the Court who delayed in the dismissal of the case. Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas specifically called out New York for “manipulating” the docket by withdrawing an unconstitutional law just before a final opinion. Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined in the condemnation and added menacingly that “some federal and state courts may not be properly applying Heller and McDonald. The Court should address that issue soon, perhaps in one of the several Second Amendment cases with petitions for certiorari now pending before the Court.” They ultimately did precisely that and took another case by the very same plaintiffs: the New York State Rifle Association. The current court membership is arguably the strongest Second Amendment bench in decades. That includes Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who wrote a strong defense of the Second Amendment defense as an appellate judge. While it is always dangerous to predict outcomes before the Court, this case was accepted with a likely intent to reverse the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (which also upheld the earlier restrictive law). With lower courts chipping away at its prior precedent, the Court seems poised to push back with a case that brings greater clarity and support for the right to bear guns in public. Many Second Amendment advocates are encouraging the Court to pull back on language from Heller that has been cited mantra-like by lower courts limiting the scope of this right. Many point to the court’s statement in Heller, which acknowledged that “like most rights, the right secured by the Second Amendment is not unlimited.” It then listed possible “sensitive places” for denying permits to former felons. The Court is likely to continue to recognize reasonable limitations, including possibly some location-based limits. However, it may create a clear presumption in favor of law-bidding citizens to bear arms outside of the home. The natural default under the Second Amendment in favor of gun owners is likely to be strengthened. The showdown with New York and the Second Circuit in that sense was merely delayed, but not forgotten by the Court. Ironically, the earlier law would have presented a narrower platform for reconsidering the Second Amendment. By gaming the system a year ago, New York may have delivered a far greater opportunity for Second Amendment advocates in the case. Of course, the Court could have accepted the case to simply amplify its agreement with the Second Circuit, but I would not count on it. It is like the scene in Braveheart when William Wallace said that he was going to “pick a fight” with the British when others were looking for a compromise. That came as little surprise to his main lieutenant Hamish who shrugged and added “Well, we didn’t get dressed up for nothing.”

If you haven't heard yet, Firearms Policy Coalition has filed what may be one of the most critical petitions for writ of certiorari for Marylanders and possibly gun owners in general in the case Bianchi v. Frosh. The case itself centers around the Maryland "Assault Weapons Ban" (AWB), also known as SB281 or the Firearms Safety Act of 2013. But before we dive into the law itself, let's look at the question being proposed to the Supreme Court in this writ of certiorari. The question presented is: "Whether the Constitution allows the government to prohibit law-abiding, responsible citizens from protecting themselves, their families, and their homes with a type of "Arms" that are in common use for lawful purposes?" The way this question is asked, we can see that if decided in favor of gun owners, the overturning of the Maryland AWB would be an unprecedented victory for gun owners nationwide. A Repudiation of assault weapon bans would free states like California, Massachusetts, New York, and New Jersey from their tyrannical state governments who've imposed their versions of this "Assault Weapon Ban." FPC's Adam Kraut affirmed that position saying, "This case presents the Court with an ideal vehicle to both address the scope of protected arms and constitutionally infirm analysis applied by these recalcitrant lower courts." The petition correctly describes the term "Assault Weapons" as a "pejorative and inaccurate label for a category of common semi-automatic firearms." Then quoting directly from Heller goes on to describe those same firearms as "in common use" and "typically possessed by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes." Maryland's AWB is an assortment of inconsistent rules and regulations thought up by bureaucrats in Annapolis who have little understanding of firearms they seek to regulate. A few examples of inconsistencies: AK pattern rifle chambered in 7.62x39? Banned. AK pattern rifle chambered in 5.45x39? Good to go. AK Pistol in 7.62x39? Good to go. The only difference between the banned rifle and pistol? The stock. It also bans the AR15 and other "Scary" looking rifles but allows AR15s that conform to a Heavy Barrel Profile, or HBAR. It also allows for rifles that are functionally identical to the AR15, like the Ruger Mini 14. Ultimately, we won't know if the Supreme Court will hear the case until sometime in 2022, as The Supreme Court will hear it in their 2022 session. But the chances are good for the Court to take this case up. Many of the Justices have signaled that they're ready to hear 2nd Amendment cases. If the recent NYSRPA v. Bruen is any indication, we will likely see them tackle more gun rights issues that have far-reaching implications. Also, the makeup of the Court has changed in recent years. With the addition of Amy Comey Barrett replacing Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the Court has a solid conservative majority. As lower court judges, Justice Barrett and Justice Kavanaugh signaled they think courts need to rethink the framework used to often measure how gun regulations are evaluated. This framework is known as "Intermediate Scrutiny." When intermediate scrutiny is applied, a law has more of a chance to survive legal challenges because the government must prove only that it is "substantially related to an important government interest." This intermediate scrutiny clause is what has kept not only the Maryland Assault Weapon ban in place but many other AWBs nationwide. If the Justices are looking for a case that has far-reaching consequences for the 2nd Amendment and the process by which states uphold these unconstitutional laws, they need look no further than Bianchi v. Frost. This is why I posed the question: "Is this the beginning of the end for gun control?" In our coverage of gun control issues over the past year, we've seen a clear pathway that the anti-gun lobby is taking. Using the NFA, 1968 GCA, FOPA, and other gun control laws on the books, they've managed to ban Bump Stocks and inch closer and closer to regulating semi-automatic firearms under the NFA or outright ban them. This Case, Bianchi v. Frost, would put a significant roadblock in front of that.

How do I do something like an artistic act or a creative object that could be received by an audience as this kind of provocation to initiate some type of chain reaction?” — Cody Wilson Cody Wilson is the founder and director of Defence Distributed and the face of 3D guns, and Jessica Solce is an acclaimed film-maker currently documenting his story. In this interview, we discuss the intersection of the right to bear arms and the right to freedom of speech. The first and second amendments are as symbolic of American identity as the stars and stripes. Yet, despite being bedrocks of the constitution for over 230 years, they are arguably now as fiercely contested as they have ever been. Many republicans believe that the right to bear arms is a vital check on state control, and ensures the protection of the first amendment. A strong progressive counter argument contends that gun violence in the US is at epidemic proportions, and controls are required. This debate is becoming more profound due to the effect of technology, particularly the internet. Julian Assange laid the foundation for using the decentralized and distributed nature of the internet to bypass the established gatekeepers of information with the aim of democratising its availability. Others quickly followed, including Cody Wilson, who saw the opportunity to provide open access to the digital tools needed to make guns - ‘Wiki weapons’ was born. Despite the backlash by government agencies, it is becoming increasingly apparent that governance is unable to keep up with both technology and Cody’s responses to legal constraints. This is not a new or isolated phenomenon. But as technology continues to push the boundaries of what power a single person is able to wield, it is stretching the limits of the social contract between the state and individuals. As a result, the forces pushing for individual autonomy and centralized control are becoming harder and harder to reconcile. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:02:32 Gun culture and the history of militias 00:15:44 The constitution and the right to bear arms 00:25:35 Censorship, Bitcoin, and 3D printed guns 00:34:31 Defence distributed, DEF CAD, performance art 00:45:51 Access to guns beyond US borders 01:00:27 Ghost Gunner, and next steps 01:15:21 Threats to democracy 01:24:21 Free speech versus vulnerable world hypothesis

"... the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Biden launches his unconstitutional assault on yet more of American's rights... Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY.) tweeted Sunday night: "The Constitution does not authorize the federal government to prevent you from making your own firearm. This a fact that has been recognized for 200+ years. Also, Article 1, Section 1 (literally the first operative sentence in the Constitution) says Congress makes law, not POTUS!" https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC193r5YXcpQJV34N99ZbhzQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FFc3i56GNg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brWObNOU3i0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0qSqtKcUtQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=347-c9gI8Vk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X65gX2SPPI0 https://www.gunowners.org/ https://www.nationalgunrights.org/ https://www.saf.org/ https://jpfo.org/ https://drgo.us/ https://www.ccrkba.org/ https://constitutionalrightspac.com/ https://www.americanfirearmsassociation.org https://www.usconcealedcarry.com/ https://www.rkba.org/ https://www.lp.org/ FOIA Bait... On May 7, 2021, the Department of Justice issued a notice of proposed rulemaking, and during the 90-day open comment period, the ATF received more than 290,000 comments, the highest number of comments submitted to a proposed rule in ATF's history. https://www.ammoland.com/2022/03/nbc-news-pennsylvania-ags-office-commit-mul... https://www.gunowners.org/goa-fights-new-biden-atf-rule/ https://www.gunowners.org/new-rule-to-expand-atf-gun-registry/ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 10 April 2022 ATF is at it again—rewriting federal law to create new gun control laws. What is About to Happen? Tomorrow, the Biden Administration is expected to publish its final rule to combat “ghost guns”—or privately made firearms which are currently legal right now. The new rule will be entitled “Definition of ‘Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms,” but it will do far more than the White House is pretending. GOA will analyze the differences between this final rule and the previously published proposed rule, but here is what we know already. The rule will: Allow ATF to end the online sale of gun parts at will (as Biden promised on the campaign trail). Mandate the serialization of many gun parts, forcing Americans to undergo a background check for a new legal “firearm” in order to repair or buy replacement parts for their guns. Require that 100% of Firearm Transaction Records from gun stores dating back to 2002 end up in ATF’s billion record gun registry. You heard that right. Not only will this mean you have to do multiple background checks to build or repair a gun… And not only can Biden’s ATF ban the online sale of gun parts without a new law… This new rule is about expanding an already billion-record gun registry to eventually include EVERY SINGLE SALE at EVERY SINGLE GUN STORE since 2002. This is pure gun control—ultimately people control. GOA is Fighting Back! Thankfully, GOA’s team of attorneys and lobbyists has been preparing for this fight. We’ve known this was coming, since they announced this rule as a proposed rule back in May of 2021. We plan on fighting this tooth and nail in the courts, as well as, in the halls of Congress. A lawsuit is in the works, but we need your help. image But GOA doesn’t only rely on the court system to defend the Second Amendment, as its reactionary by nature. That’s why GOA is working to force a vote in the Senate to strike down this rule using a procedure known as the Congressional Review Act. Using the Congressional Review Act, 30 Senators can submit a petition that will force the Senate to vote on rejecting this rule, bypassing the powerful filibuster. That’s where you come in. How You Can Help: We need you to fill out a message to your senators and representatives at the top of this page demanding they sign-on to this petition in both legislative chambers. We want Congress on the record demonstrating their support or rejection of this abusive demonstration of gun control. Will Congress strike down Biden’s attempt to expand and solidify ATF’s national gun registry? Will the Courts enforce the Firearm Owners Protection Act against any new rules or regulations that create gun or gun owner registries? These are dangerous times for the Second Amendment, but Gun Owners of America is standing up to the gun grabbers. We’re here to defend your constitutional rights. Stand with us. Together, let’s put vulnerable senators who are up for reelection in the hot seat and make them show their true colors. Together, let’s take this fight to the courts and uphold the Firearm Owners Protection Act! April 10, 2022 Washington, D.C. – The Biden administration plans to issue a final rule based on proposed rule ATF 2021R-05 as soon as Monday, which would allow the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to expand its nearly billion-record gun registry and regulate gun parts as firearms, allowing ATF to end the online sale of gun parts at-will. While the text of the final rule has yet to be published, Gun Owners of America (GOA) announced its plans to fight back immediately. Aidan Johnston, GOA’s Director of Federal Affairs, commented, “Biden’s proposal to create a comprehensive national gun registry and end the online sale of gun parts without the passage of a new law exemplifies his disregard for the Second Amendment. “Congress must provide oversight by striking down ATF’s illegal gun registration rule using the Congressional Review Act and passing Rep. Michael Cloud’s No REGISTRY Rights Act to eliminate ATF’s billion-record gun registry. “Just as we opposed the Trump Administration’s arbitrary ban on bump stocks, GOA will also sue Biden’s ATF to halt the implementation of this rule, whose promulgation violates the Second Amendment, Firearm Owners Protection Act, Gun Control Act of 1968, and Administrative Procedures Act.” GOA commented against the proposed rule on June 7, 2021. GOA spokesmen are available for interviews. Gun Owners of America, and its sister organization Gun Owners Foundation, are nonprofits dedicated to protecting the right to keep and bear arms without compromise.

President Joe Biden holds up a ghost gun kit during an event in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington on April 11, 2022. (Drew Angerer/Getty Images) The move comes more than three months before President Joe Biden’s controversial “ghost gun” regulation goes into effect on Aug. 24, 2022. The new rule, which is expected to be challenged in court, bans the business of manufacturing unserialized “buy-build-shoot” kits that can be purchased without a background check. The so-called ghost guns contain parts that can be assembled into a gun. These kits will now be considered firearms under the Gun Control Act. Pennsylvania-based JSD Supply received a letter from ATF dated May 9, 2022, ordering the company to immediately cease and desist the sale of full sets and parts that could be converted into a functioning firearm. The letter has caused the company to shut down its operation. “ATF has held that kits which include all components necessary to produce a functional firearm, including the jig or template used to finish the unfinished frame or receiver, the slide assembly, and the necessary components to complete the frame or receiver are themselves properly classified as firearms under the Gun Control Act,” the letter says. “Specifically, these kits are a weapon that may be readily converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive. These kits are firearms under the gun Control Act and have always been firearms pursuant to statute.” For years, the ATF has provided guidance on the definition of a gun. Those who sell parts such as 80 percent receivers do not need a Federal Firearms License. But the letter shows the ATF has changed its mind and is following the new regulation before it has gone into effect. “Those engaged in the business of selling these complete kits, as your company does, are in fact engaged in the business of dealing firearms,” the letter says. “Further, selling the necessary components to produce a functional firearm to the same person through multiple purchases or structure to transactions at different times instead of a single sale is equivalent to selling the complete kit to the customer. That is, the complete set of component parts necessary to create a firearm need not be packaged or sold in a single container or a single transaction in order to be considered a firearm. These piecemeal sales circumvent requirements of the Gun Control Act and are unlawful.” Part for a homemade gun as pictured in the 2013 ATF Technical Bulletin, in which it was defined as “not a firearm.” A new rule will require a background check to buy a part like this, and special licensing to sell it. (ATF) JSD Supply has filed a case in the U.S. District Court against ATF and the U.S. Department of Justice, seeking an injunction to remain open. The court filing says the ATF has recognized and expressly sanctioned, the unregulated sale of every single product that JSD Supply offers for sale. “ATF has specifically and repeatedly explained that firearm parts such as barrels, triggers and springs are not firearms under federal statutory law including the Gun Control Act,” the company’s complaint says. The ATF also has specifically and repeatedly determined that the 80 percent frames and receivers which the company sells are not firearms under the act and are entirely unregulated by the ATF. “This court’s intervention to protect the firearms industry and gun owners is necessary to reign in a branch of the federal government that is acting without any legal authority, and return the constitutional lawmaking power to the Congress, the only branch of government to which it was entrusted by Article I of the U.S. Constitution,” the complaint says. This appears to be the first U.S. case of a company receiving such a letter, but another company in Missouri has now been told by the ATF to stop selling their products, according to Gun Owners of America. “JSD Supply was just the first domino to fall in the ATF’s latest unwarranted action. Frustratingly, we have confirmed at least one additional company forced to halt sales and we expect more to follow,” Erich Pratt, senior vice president of Gun Owners of America (GOA) said in a statement. “Make no mistake, this is the beginning of a political crusade against homemade firearms. Forcing small businesses across the country to close their doors with no legal authority to do so, is wrong and a blatant abuse of power,” Pratt said. GOA is preparing a lawsuit challenging the new regulation. “With a gun there’s only one regulated part, the frame or the receiver, and you do a background check on the frame or the receiver,” Aidan Johnston, GOA director of federal affairs told The Epoch Times. JSD Supply sells, not the regulated frame, but unfinished frames that are 80 percent complete. The company also sells all the other parts for a gun. “JSD Supply asked the ATF if they could just stop selling the 80 percent frame and continue to sell all the other gun parts, and ATF won’t let them,” Johnston said. “But what’s really important is not just the other companies that are selling 80 percent receivers and gun parts, but there are hundreds of websites that sell only gun parts. No regulated part from before or after this final rule. And the question is, if I 3D print the frame and then I order a barrel and a trigger from one of those websites that only sells gun parts, is ATF trying to say that that company illegally helped me complete a firearm?” The answer is unclear. ATF was unavailable for comment. “In order to engage in the constitutionally protected activities of keeping and bearing firearms, weapons first must be acquired,” the JSD Supply court complaint says. “It is thus beyond serious debate that the Second Amendment protects the right of individuals to make their own privately made firearms, and thus to acquire the parts and materials with which to do so. The Constitution protects the corresponding right to sell firearm components, magazines, ammunition, and accessories, just as the freedoms of speech and press protect the right to buy and sell newspapers, books, paper, and ink. Indeed, it would not mean much if there was a right to make a firearm, but no ability to purchase the materials necessary to do so.” History Lesson: Support, Join, and Defend your rights and the rights of others, all rights, at all costs, or lose them all, forever... https://yaliberty.org/ https://www.reddit.com/r/2ALiberals+2ndamendment+AR80Percents+CCW+Constituti... https://www.gunowners.org/ https://www.nationalgunrights.org/ https://www.saf.org/ https://jpfo.org/ https://drgo.us/ https://www.ccrkba.org/ https://constitutionalrightspac.com/ https://www.americanfirearmsassociation.org https://www.usconcealedcarry.com/ https://www.rkba.org/ https://www.lp.org/ https://www.youtube.com/user/mrcolionnoir https://www.youtube.com/user/hickok45 https://www.youtube.com/user/theakguy1974

Gun Rights Are More Important Than False Security And Appeasing Leftists https://alt-market.us/gun-rights-are-more-important-than-false-security-and-... http://jpfo.org/filegen-n-z/NaziLawEnglish.htm https://www.foxnews.com/us/darrell-brooks-facebook-white-people-violence If there is one Holy Grail target that the political left obsesses over more that anything else, it is getting their hands on the 2nd Amendment and molding it to their will or erasing it forever. The pursuit of American gun rights is paramount to them, beyond critical race theory, beyond gender politics, even beyond the abortion debate. The problem for them is that ever since the Obama era they have consistently hit a brick wall in terms of convincing the general public to give another inch of ground when it comes to gun control. To be sure, there are many reasons for this that coincide. First, the credit crash of 2008 opened many people’s eyes to the possibility that the economic systems we take for granted today could disappear tomorrow. Gun rights were no longer a matter of “tradition,” but a matter of necessity. If the system breaks down and emergency services are overwhelmed or disappear then the only person you can rely on to protect your family is you. Mortal realities always win over emotional and reactionary demands. In other words, the benefits of individual self protection greatly outweigh any potential risks of criminality or abuse. Second, the advent of the covid mandates, lockdowns and the blatant attempts to implement vaccine passport tyranny upon half the population of this country yet again reinforced the idea that gun rights are more important than ever. Without the unified refusal to comply by conservatives and some moderate Americans, it is highly likely that our nation would be in the same situation as China is right now – A pointless cycle of lockdowns, authoritarian denial of basic services for people that refuse to submit to a highly experimental mRNA vaccine, and even worse supply chain disruptions and financial instability than we already have. Make no mistake, the reason the US is mostly free from these draconian conditions today is because of the continued existence of the 2nd Amendment and an armed citizenry. Without these things, there is no longer any obstacle to enforcing whatever unconstitutional provisions the establishment wants. Third, with the advent of the BLM riots, inflationary pressures and rising crime rates, there has been a renewed interest in gun ownership in the US among normies. It’s not just a conservative trend, many democrats have suddenly taken an interest also. There is very little chance that increased gun restrictions are going to happen with the approval of the public. The only way it could even be attempted is through executive order, and many millions of Americans will simply say ‘no’, just as they did with the vaccine passports. And, let’s be clear about what is really going on: The intention of political elites and the left is not “reasonable gun control.” Their purpose is indeed confiscation. Incrementalism is the name of the game. Lets not forget what we saw with the covid passports – At first they claimed that there were no plans to institute anything like a vaccine passport system. They said this was “conspiracy theory.” Then, not more than a year later Biden tried to enforce proof of vaccination through executive order. Suddenly, it wasn’t conspiracy theory anymore. The same strategy has been attempted with gun rights in the past, and they will try to do it again. As with every other Western nation that has restricted gun ownership down to almost nothing, they start with the “scary” semi-auto weapons and work their way down until you have nothing left. Or, until only people with considerable money have the ability to purchase a firearm (which is the case through most of Europe). I suspect that leftists are not fully opposed to the idea of gun ownership as they often pretend to be. I think they would actually like to retain their own guns if possible, they just don’t want people like you and I to have them. Selective gun confiscation would be their ideal, which is the same exact strategy used by the Nazis, who selectively outlawed gun ownership for Jewish citizens and anyone politically opposed to the Third Reich but let all other Germans keep their weapons. I would note that whenever gun crimes and mass murders are committed by people that are ideologically opposed to conservatives, the media and leftists often conveniently stop caring about taking action. They only seem to care when the crime can be associated with their political enemies. We all know that leftists constantly argue that conservatives are inherently dangerous. It only takes one more step for them to claim that conservative thought is in itself a “mental illness” and that our guns should be taken by default. But let’s talk about REAL mental illness for a moment, shall we? Let’s talk about recent active shooters like Payton Gendron with bizarre political and ideological beliefs that have nothing to do with conservative principles. Democrats like AOC and Chuck Schumer immediately tried to link Gendron, the Buffalo grocery store shooter, to conservatives and the Republican party. Yet, in only a few days time they were suddenly silent about the whole event and the media was oddly quiet. But why? As it turns out, Gendron’s philosophies were entirely socialist, with tinges of fascism and communism within the same framework. In fact, Gendron stated on multiple occasions that he hated conservatives and identified himself as an “eco-fascist.” He also had a history of reports concerning his mental health and safety. The media’s focus on “replacement theory” was a clear distraction from the real issue at hand. Their assertion was that if you are critical of illegal immigration, then you are automatically a racist and share an ideological boat with people like Payton Gendron. But then, their narrative fell apart when it became obvious that Gendron was actually anti-conservative. In the case of Salvador Ramos, details are still emerging about the Texas school shooter and his affiliations, but some information has been leaked despite the media’s quick move to control the narrative. For example, Ramos is not the white conservative monster the leftists need to fulfill their narrative requirements. Photos are also in circulation allegedly taken from his social media accounts which suggest he was transgendered and identified as “they/them.” I’ll stress here though that his social media accounts have been completely scrubbed and right now there is no way to confirm that this claim is true. Why his accounts were removed so quickly is not clear, but surely we will know more in the next couple of days. Leftists are swiftly moving to refute any possibility that Ramos was transgendered; maybe they are right, maybe not. They were also very quick to deny that Darrell Brooks Jr., the mass killer that ran down a parade of people with his car in Waukesha, WI, was a supporter of BLM. But, as it turned out initial reports by internet sleuths were correct. Suddenly, leftists were fielding arguments that he was “pushed” to commit the crime by “institutional racism.” If it turns out that Ramos did in fact identify as trans, then the media message will surely change once again. I have no doubt there will be a move to defend Ramos as a tragic figure, rather than a monster, and the blame will be placed on the state of Texas and their legislative actions to stop transgender policies from invading their public school system. The point is, there is no connection between gun rights supporters or conservatives and gun crime as leftists often claim. I can find just as many if not more incidences of mass murder perpetrated by leftists. The common thread between all of these killers and events is not guns or gun rights. Rather, it is blatant signs of mental illness and ideological zealotry. The media will not address this issue, and political puppets like Joe Biden will not address it either. Remember, the goal is gun confiscation, not public safety. If they actually cared about public safety then the mental illness connection would not be ignored. It is also important to point out that such tragedies are not limited to the US as some gun grabbers would like you to believe. Numerous mass murder incidences have taken place in Europe and Asia despite strict gun control. Many people have forgotten the mass murder of French citizens in Paris in November of 2015 by Islamic militants with AK47s. Or, how about the mass killing of Spanish citizens by Muslim terrorists in Barcelona in 2017 using a moving truck? Another factor which is almost always present during mass murder events is that most of them occur in gun free zones; places where carrying by law abiding citizens is denied or frowned upon. If we are going to address the issue of mass murder, we cannot ignore the commonalities of mental illness and gun free areas. The existence of guns in civilian hands is not the problem, if it were then mass murders would be a daily occurrence in every community in the country. However, this does not stop leftists from trying to exploit every tragedy as an opportunity to attack gun rights. They don’t care about nuance or honest solutions, they just want guns out of the hands of people they don’t like. The establishment also wants guns out of public hands for obvious reasons; it makes it much easier to erode other parts of the constitution when the 2nd Amendment is no longer a deterrent. Joe Biden argues that Americans “need to stand up to the gun lobby” in the wake of the Texas shooting, but the gun lobby has nothing to do with these events either. The biggest gun lobby in the US is the American people standing in defense of their freedoms, and they have committed no crime. At bottom, no gun owner or gun rights advocate is to blame for what happened in New York or Texas this past week. We didn’t commit the crimes, but the assertion is that we should be punished anyway. Well, I’m not going to allow that, and millions of conservatives and liberty minded people are not going to allow it. The appeal for new gun control measures and confiscation is aimed at the political left, and it is designed to make them feel better about the reality of tragedy. It’s a false silver bullet solution (no pun intended). It doesn’t address the real causes of mass violence, it only makes us more vulnerable to it. Frankly, I don’t care if leftists feel better, or feel like they accomplished something when they did not. I also know that increased gun control is exciting to many of them simply because it goes against the values of people they hate – i.e. conservatives. The fact is this: No matter what tragedy arises, our right to self defense overall is more important than appeasing the emotions of the moment. We won’t be giving up our guns. It’s not going to happen. They think we will capitulate given enough threats or enough pressure, and they are wrong. It will not end well for them. Other solutions need to be explored because the path to a revision or erasure of the 2nd Amendment, whether by legislation or by executive order, is nothing more than a path to civil war. It’s time to move on from the foolish notion that taking away guns from everyone (or just the people we disagree with politically) solves the underlying causes of mass murder. It doesn’t remove the motivation, nor does it even remove the means, it only sets the stage for a conflict that leftists will find impossible to win.

The gunman who massacred 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas lingered outside for 12 minutes firing shots at people in a funeral home across the street, before scaling a fence onto school grounds where he fired more shots. He then entered the school and barricading himself in a classroom before opening fire, according to the Wall Street Journal. Victor Escalon, a regional director for the Texas Department of Public Safety, said he couldn’t say why no one stopped the deceased gunman, 18 year-old Salvador Ramos, from entering the school during that time Tuesday. Most of the shots Ramos fired came during the first several minutes when he entered the school, Mr. Escalon said. DPS officials previously said an armed school officer confronted Ramos as he arrived at the school. Mr. Escalon said Thursday that information was incorrect and no one encountered Ramos as he arrived at the school. “There was not an officer readily available and armed,” Mr. Escalon said. -WSJ Ramos began Tuesday morning shooting his grandmother in the face, then using her truck to drive to the school - crashing it into a ditch at around 11:28 am according to a timeline laid out by Escalon. Texas law enforcement officials ignored pleas from distraught parents as a gunman was left alone for up to an hour at a Texas elementary school - killing 19 children and two teachers, before a Border Patrol agent charged into the school and killed the suspect. A woman cries as she leaves the Uvalde Civic Center, where authorities were reuniting children from Robb Elementary School with their parents after the shooting. William Luther, Staff, San Antonio Express-News "Go in there!

Carranza said the officers did not go in. Minutes earlier, Carranza had watched as Salvador Ramos crashed his truck into a ditch outside the school, grabbed his AR-15-style semi-automatic rifle and shot at two people outside a nearby funeral home who ran away uninjured. Officials say he “encountered” a school district security officer outside the school, though there were conflicting reports from authorities on whether the men exchanged gunfire. After running inside, he fired on two arriving Uvalde police officers who were outside the building, said Texas Department of Public Safety spokesperson Travis Considine. The police officers were injured. -RealClear Politics One parent, Javier Cazares, whose fourth-grade daughter Jacklyn was killed in the attack, said he raced to the school when he heard about the shooting, only to find that police weren't moving in.

According to Lt. Christopher Olivarez of the Department of Public Safety, he "barricaded himself by locking the door and just started shooting children and teachers that were inside that classroom." According to Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw, it took between 40 minutes and 1 hour from when Ramos began opening fire to when the CBP agent, backed by his tactical team, shot him. Not only did cops with long guns have their tasers out, ready to stop parents from saving their own children, it looks like the cops have one parent pinned to the ground.

Let him up!" pic.twitter.com/zW5V9FJ2r0 — Matt Novak (@paleofuture) May 26, 2022 Two Uvalde police officers were among the first on the scene - engaging the shooter after he had entered the building when they were both shot and injured. "When the cops came, the cop said: ‘Yell if you need help!’ And one of the persons in my class said ‘help.’ The [shooter] overheard and he came in and shot her," a boy who hid under a table in his classroom told KENS5 news. "The cop barged into that classroom. The guy shot at the cop. And the cops started shooting." Of note, in the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado, police waited outside the school and didn’t enter until almost two hours after Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold started shooting—and an hour after they’d committed suicide. In the meantime, they killed a dozen students and a teacher. Columbine shocked the nation and marked a shift in tactical philosophy: Police officers are now expected to enter buildings with active shooters as rapidly as possible, regardless of their equipment or training. As a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department briefing on the topic explains, “Officers realize and accept the dangers, they also realize if they do nothing, more people will die or be injured than if they had taken action.”

Thugsters, the Abdullah's and other criminals of the world, don't give a fuck about gun laws and bans, and have no problems getting guns... "Do your job ... Get crime off the streets." NYC Subway Shooter Who Killed Goldman Banker Had "About 20 Prior Arrests", Including Murder Charge From 2017 Just two days ago we reported about the unfortunate death of a Goldman Sachs analyst, who was shot dead on the northbound Q train as it passed the Manhattan Bridge. Daniel Enriquez, who joined Goldman's research division in 2013, was shot in the chest in an unprovoked attack. According to NYPost at the time, the family of Enriquez had only one message for Mayor Eric Adams: "Do your job ... Get crime off the streets." And they make a crucial point, especially as it relates to this specific attack. Why? Because it was revealed in follow up reporting yesterday that the suspect, 25 year old Andrew Abdullah of Brooklyn (who has now been placed in custody), had "about 20 prior arrests" for "assault, robbery, menacing and grand larceny", ABC News reported this week. ' In fact, the same report notes that he has "three cases that are still pending, including an April arrest for fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property for allegedly being found with a stolen motorcycle, as well as a June 2021 arrest for violating a protective order and March 2021 arrest for assault." But wait...that's not all. According to ABC: In January 2020, Abdullah was arrested as part of a gun-related case and in May 2017 he was charged with second-degree attempted murder as part of an 83-count federal indictment of the Harlem-based street gangs Fast Money and Nine Block. Abdullah was sentenced to three years in federal prison, but served just four months before being released in 2019. When Mayor Adams and 埃里克 Swalwell predictably propose more gun control please point them to this: https://t.co/5WF9Xcf9W8 pic.twitter.com/UZOgyWmORr — Bearded Miguel (@beardedmiguel) May 24, 2022 Goldman CEO David Solomon described Enriquez as a "dedicated and beloved" colleague. "We are devastated by this senseless tragedy and our deepest sympathies are with Dan's family at this difficult time," Solomon said in a statement. Sunday's train attack comes a little more than a month after the shooting in April on the N train left nearly two dozen people injured. Confidence in riding public transportation has plummeted as violence soars across the city. Meanwhile, delusional Mayor Eric Adams has been focused on trying to get JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon to ride the subway to work in the morning. Maybe he should focus on cleaning up the streets so that people with 20 prior arrests aren't wandering free - and then Dimon will consider his offer.

Gun Control Narrative Omits Cases Where Guns Save Lives: Erich Pratt https://www.theepochtimes.com/lefts-narrative-pushing-gun-control-omits-case... https://www.ntd.com/erich-pratt-on-debate-over-gun-rights-after-shooting_786... https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-second-amendment https://crimeresearch.org/2018/06/more-misleading-information-from-bloomberg... https://www.gunowners.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/PoliceOnes-2013-Gun-Pol... The left’s push for more gun control omit the many cases that go against their narrative, such as instances where guns were used to neutralize shooters, according to Erich Pratt, the senior vice president of Gun Owners of America (GOA), a gun rights advocacy organization that represents more than 2 million Americans. “The left is all about pushing gun control. It’s absolutely disgusting what they’re doing. They’re pushing gun control, they’re fundraising off of this within hours of the shooting,” Pratt told NTD’s Capitol Report, referring to the May 24 shooting that killed 21 people at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. “And really, it’s despicable because it becomes clear they only care about certain deaths,” he said. Erich Pratt, Senior Vice President for Gun Owners of America, in an interview on NTD's Capitol Report, on May 28, 2022. (NTD/Screenshot via The Epoch Times) Politicians and activists pushing for gun control neglect to talk about cities that already have the policies they want to implement for the entire nation, he said. “For example, more than 40 people have been shot and killed in Chicago this month. In the last 30 days, in Baltimore, there had been 20 people shot and killed. But the left is not talking about that. They’re not fundraising off of Chicago or Baltimore because they already have very strict gun control,” Pratt noted. “Those cities don’t serve their cause—[they] have red-flag, gun confiscation orders, they have universal background registration checks, they have so-called assault weapons bans, they have everything that the left is trying to push on us, and yet they have murders out the wazoo in those two cities that they can’t control it. “And what that tells us, obviously, is that gun control is not the answer,” he said. Pratt noted examples of past deadly attacks that did not involve guns, and said that blaming a certain instrument for mass attacks is “short-sighted because no law that bans a certain object is going to stop an evil-determined heart from killing.” “What’s amazing, and this is one of the things that the anti-gun left does, is they only talk about certain uses of a firearm, which fit their narrative when they’re used in a bad way. But then they won’t talk about firearms when they’re actually used to stop mass shootings,” Pratt said. Pratt noted how, on May 25, the day after the mass shooting in Uvalde, a woman with a concealed carry permit in West Virginia shot and killed a man who had started firing an AR-style rifle into a crowd of people at a birthday-graduation party. He accused the left-wing media of generating opposition to people’s Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms “by only selectively talking about certain stories,” and neglecting stories that show how guns may be used to avert more deaths. “A lot of times where there has been a lot of killing … they are brought to an end by a good guy with a gun,” he said. Pratt shared the story of Stephen Willeford, who is currently GOA’s spokesperson. As an armed citizen, Willeford in November 2017 stopped a shooter at a church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, from potentially killing more people. “Sadly, everyone at that church in Sutherland Springs did not have a gun on that day except for the bad guy,” Pratt said. “But when Steven Willeford, who lived down the street heard the shooting, he ran out of his house barefoot with his AR-15 [and] called the guy out of the church. That guy came out and Steven mortally wounded him.” “I mean, the guy got in his car, drove off but eventually took his own life because he was wounded so bad,” he continued. “The FBI cited that case and many other cases as examples where armed citizens use guns to stop attempted mass murders.” Pratt argued against the concept of gun-free zones, saying they only serve to be places where shooters seek to go. The Uvalde shooting was an example of that, he noted. “It’s really important to point out that in most cases, these killers will try to seek out a location where it’s a gun-free zone. You know, 81 percent of police agree that teachers and staff should be armed, and with good reason because no school has ever had a mass shooting where there were armed teachers and staff,” he said. “But tragically, that wasn’t the case at the Texas School. Police were reportedly not quick to rush in. And this Texas school didn’t take part in the program that allows teachers to be armed, so it was a gun-free zone. “And again, that’s what killers often choose to target. And why would 94 percent of mass shooters target gun-free zones? Because they don’t want bullets being fired back at them. “That’s why they don’t target police stations or gun shows because killers love gun control. And sadly, that’s what enabled this killer in Texas.”

Despite fact that ending "gun free zones" and hardening soft targets works, Democrats insist on sparking civil war, just like they did with sparking race riots in 2020. If it's a war they want, and a war they will lose, grabbing guns is the surest way to start one. https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1531733747707813888 Democrat Beto O’Rourke wants to CONFISCATE guns from law-abiding Americans. “I don’t think that the people who have them right now in civilian use should be able to keep them.” https://www.foxnews.com/politics/beto-orourke-ar-15-owners-shouldnt-keep-the... Beto O’Rourke wants door-to-door confiscation of guns by the government. Texas Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke said existing owners of semi-automatic rifles like the AR-15 shouldn’t "be able to keep them."

Trudeau's Convoy Power Grab was Part Eunuch, Here's more on Part Douch, complete with new Traitors... "When Power cancels Rights by calling them Privileges, Tyranny always follows." Trudeau Proposes Law Banning Handgun Sales In Canada Fresh off his disturbingly authoritarian response to trucker protests against Covid-19 vaccine mandates, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau turned the dystopia dial all to way to 11 on Monday, introducing legislation that would completely freeze the import, purchase or sale of handguns, while compelling compensated forfeitures of "assault weapons." On the same day President Biden declared there's "no rational basis" for 9mm ammunition in the context of self-defense, Trudeau said: "Other than using firearms for sport shooting and hunting, there is no reason anyone in Canada should need guns in their everyday lives." Flanked by families of shooting victims and a group of officials that included Canada's "Minister of Women and Gender Equality and Youth," Trudeau declared, "It will be illegal to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada." NOW - PM Trudeau: "It will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer, or import handguns anywhere in Canada."pic.twitter.com/rVd5gWgEtq — Disclose.tv (@disclosetv) May 30, 2022 In 2020, Canada similarly banned the sale of more than 1,500 models of so-called "assault weapons." Owners were allowed to keep existing rifles provided they had a permit; others were given a two-year amnesty period in which to turn them in. While the government estimated that 105,000 weapons were affected by the policy, Canadians had turned in just 160 of them through December 9, 2021. To this point, no compensation has been provided. Now, under proposed law, most owners of covered rifles will be required to surrender them to the government, via a mandatory buyback program set to begin by the end of 2022. It's unclear how much compensation will be offered. The proposed legislation would also require rifle and shotgun magazines to be "permanently altered so they can never hold more than five rounds." Canada would also ban the sale or transfer of so-called "large capacity magazines"—which, under Canadian law, would be defined as one that could hold just six rounds or more. The proposal includes a new "red flag" law by which courts can order individuals considered a danger to themselves or others to surrender their firearms to police. “We need only look south of the border to know that if we do not take action, firmly and rapidly, it gets worse and worse and more difficult to counter,” Trudeau told reporters. Making his own comparison, Minister of Emergency Preparedness Bill Blair said, "In Canada, gun ownership is a privilege, not a right. This is a principle that differentiates ourselves from many other countries in the world, notably our colleagues and friends to the south." The legislation is fully expected to be enacted this fall. Canada's constitution has no equivalent to America's Second Amendment. For the most part, Canadian law only allows handguns to be loaded or fired at shooting ranges; they generally aren't allowed to be carried. Canada's rapid descent down the slippery slope from banning the sale of assault rifles to ordering the surrender of such rifles and freezing handgun ownership should stand as a stark cautionary tale for current and prospective American gun owners—and for Republican legislators now under pressure to compromise with Democrats on assault rifle bans or other purported "common sense" gun control measures. On Sunday, Republican Representative Adam Kinzinger announced his willingness to consider a ban on AR-15s. "Look, I have opposed a ban, you know, fairly recently. I think I'm open to a ban now."

Firearm Stocks Soar Over Fears Of New Gun-Control Laws Shares of gun and ammunition companies jumped Wednesday over speculation of new gun control laws in the wake of Tuesday's horrific mass shooting that killed at least 19 children and two teachers at a Texas elementary school. Investors anticipate increased sales ahead of calls for stricter gun laws by Democrats. As of Wednesday afternoon, Smith & Wesson Inc. and Vista Outdoors Inc. were both up around 10%, American Outdoor Brands Inc. +6.5%, Sturm Ruger & Co. +5.5%, and Ammo Inc. +5%. Gun makers' shares typically rise when Democrats call for stricter gun control measures after mass shootings because people buy on the fear that more rules could make owning a gun harder or costlier. This was the case in 2012 when gun sales soared after the shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, at Sandy Hook school. Search trends for "buy a gun" immediately erupted Tuesday evening after the shooting at the elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. Even though Democrats and President Biden have vowed to get tough on guns, Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) was out Wednesday, indicating new gun control measures would be hard to pass because there isn't enough Republican support. Still, some fear the Biden administration will get tough on guns via executive fiat. Stocks also rise during massive new waves of self-defense buying of arms due to the public's growing recognition that no amount of laws bans and police can truly protect the public against criminals, that realtime need demands firearm ownership among the everyday public.

Get Woke, Go Broke Texas Law Forces Companies To Be Neutral On Guns Or Face Consequences https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-05-25/texas-forces-companies-to... https://twitter.com/WillHild/status/1528740373929025536 https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/05/24/state-farm-lgbtq-children... Woke companies who want to continue operating in Texas will have to effectively take a vow of neutrality on guns following the latest school shooting. Gun rights advocates gathered outside the state Capitol in Austin in 2019 (Eric Gay / The Associated Press) Thanks to a June 2021 law endorsed by the National Rifle Association (NRA) signed by Governor Greg Abbott, firearm makers, retailers and industry groups have special protections using language typically reserved to shield people from racism, sexism, ageism or other 'isms, Bloomberg reports. The bill requires companies signing contracts with state government agencies to verify that they don't discriminate against the gun industry - which forces them to ignore calls from Democrats to sever business ties in the state over the latest shooting in Uvalde, TX in which a gunman killed 19 students and two teachers. "Texas has pro-gun legislation which clearly makes a statement at ensuring that the firearms industry is well protected," said Janice Iwama, a professor at American University, who studies the impact of gun legislation. Meanwhile, the National Shooting Sports Foundation wants states to follow in Texas' footsteps, as companies in the industry are regularly denied services by banks. Similar bills have been advanced in Oklahoma and Louisiana, while additional measures have been introduced elsewhere. The Texas law has already cast ripples across Wall Street, where Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co., and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. had been curtailing some ties to gun companies, including by not lending to those that make military-style weapons for civilian use. Citigroup Inc. had also put in place restrictions for retailers that it works with. The Texas bill requires any public contract valued at or more than $100,000 to include a provision that states the company does not and will not discriminate against a firearm entity or trade association. -Bloomberg Texas' law caused virtue signaling banks such as BofA, JPMorgan and Goldman to stop underwriting Texas muni bonds, however Citigroup returned to the market last year, and earlier this month JPMorgan took a first step to re-enter the market with an attempt to appeal to state lawmakers. This isn't the first time woke corps have bent the knee. Earlier this week, State Farm withdrew support of a program providing LGBTQ-themed children's books to teachers and libraries, after conservative groups slammed the insurance company as "a creepy neighbor," a play on its slogan "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there." "State Farm tells us they’re a good neighbor, but would a good neighbor target 5-year-olds for conversations about sexual identity?" a narrator says in a Monday video by the conservative group, Consumers' Research. "That's what State Farm is doing." This gross and blatant attempt to indoctrinate our children by @StateFarm is shameless and consumers should be aware a company founded on family values is now encouraging five-year-old children to question their gender. And we have the receipts. pic.twitter.com/UYTWGb5yod — Will Hild (@WillHild) May 23, 2022 "Conversations about gender and identity should happen at home with parents," said State Farm spokesman Roszell Gadson in a statement to the Washington Post on Tuesday. "We don’t support required curriculum in schools on this topic. We support organizations providing resources for parents to have these conversations. We no longer support the program allowing for distribution of books in schools." Get woke, go broke.

Democrats state they do not give one shit about the US Constitution, nor did all failed countries in history about theirs either. Numbers are stark, hardly any Democrat has ever fired any firearm, rarely spent so much as a day at an arms range, never taken classes, never joined any shooting sports, doesn't own any firearm, never been Military or LE, etc. Yet you moronic sheeple let them rule over your life with an iron fist, and let them point their Govt guns at you. Truly beyond dumb, failure cometh upon you soon. House Judiciary Democrts Vote To Advance Expansive Gun Control Bill https://www.theepochtimes.com/house-judiciary-committee-votes-to-advance-exp... The House Judiciary Committee voted this week to advance a gun control bill in the wake of a deadly shooting in Uvalde, Texas. The final vote fell along party lines, with every committee Republican voting against the legislation and every committee Democrat voting to advance it. Splits between Democrats and Republicans were on full display during the hearing, which focused on the “Protecting Our Kids” Act, H.R. 7910. That bill, among other provisions, would ban the sale of “any semiautomatic centerfire rifle or semi-automatic centerfire shotgun that has, or has the capacity to accept, an ammunition feeding device with a capacity exceeding 5 rounds” to citizens below the age of 21; currently one only needs to be 18 to buy such a weapon. It would also codify the Department of Justice’s controversial ban on bump stocks, a weapon modification that increases the fire rate of a semiautomatic firearm. In addition, it would also make it a federal crime to possess weapons that critics have pejoratively labeled “ghost guns,” usually describing homemade or 3D-printed weapons without a serial number. Democrats pushed strongly for the passage of the bill, saying that stricter gun control laws are needed in response to the shooting in Uvalde that left 19 children and two adults dead. The legislation “might have saved those children in Uvalde,” Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) said, adding “whoever saves one life, it’s as if he saved the whole world.” Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.) argued at one point in the hearing that arguments against the bill hinging on the Second Amendment are faulty. “The Supreme Court has ruled time and time again that the Second Amendment is not absolute,” he said. Others pushed for the bill as a matter of urgency, and called for various changes to Senate rules and the Supreme Court’s composition if necessary to pass the legislation. “This epidemic of gun violence is not unstoppable,” said Rep. Mondaire Jones (D-N.Y.). “It is a choice—a choice you could make differently at any time, a choice between our lives and your guns.” “Time and time again you have chosen to put your right to kill over our right to live,” Jones added. “But your selfishness and your indifference have not killed our hope.” “If the filibuster stops us, we will abolish it,” Jones said. “If the Supreme Court objects, we will expand it. And we will not rest until we have taken weapons of war out of circulation in our communities.” “Each and every day, we will do whatever it takes to end gun violence,” Jones said. “Whatever it takes,” he emphasized. Republicans, by contrast, have pushed for legislation to address mental illness and to increase school security, but have rejected efforts to limit gun rights. While what happened in Uvalde was “a tragedy,” Judiciary Ranking Member Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said, “protecting children is not a Democrat or Republican issue.” Jordan called instead for legislation based on making schools safer rather than restricting gun rights, a sentiment shared by many other Republicans. “We’re all for that,” Jordan said. “But we’re not for taking away Second Amendment liberties.” Rather, Jordan said, we should focus on discovering “the why” of mass shootings: “Until we discover the ‘why,’ we’re never going to solve the problem.” “The left and the Democrats’ response to practically every problem is to take more power and control into the national government, or take away individuals’ rights, or throw taxpayer money at the problem—sometimes both,” said Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.). “That’s why they tend to exacerbate practically every problem without resolution,” Biggs said. “They misidentify the cause of virtually every effect. “The misuse of guns for evil or even criminal purposes is another example. Millions of Americans safely and responsibly own and use guns.” Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.) echoed the sentiment. “You are not going to bully your way into stripping Americans of fundamental rights,” Bishop said. In a statement, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said that the House would vote on the legislation next week. Though the legislation is likely to pass the lower chamber, it has little to no chance of passing in the Senate, where it would need the support of at least 10 Republicans to overcome the 60-vote filibuster threshold.

You don’t even have to use the gun, just owning them provides a deterrent. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-59486285.amp https://youtu.be/mGFdWcJU7-0 Internment Camps guns are not going to disappear with the flick of a magic wand...like Democrats seem to imply. "The 2nd amendment doesn't work for self defense", says people that don't exercise their 2nd amendment rights. Electricity and the internet is not a sure thing. When the bad guys break down your door ready to harm you, your family, and take your property, how is the internet going to help you? Freedom of speech is everything. The right to arm ourselves is everything. Because when we give up our right to speak out against anything like abortion, guns, speech, then we have someone who speaks for us. Doesn't seem too free huh? Then the guns. If we give up our right to protect ourselves then we give someone else the right to protect us or NOT protect us. When this country was founded we were leaving another nation bc NOTHING basically was yet free. Speech against a king for instance. If we put freedom of speech in our constitution, it made us free and able as a nation to speak against a king or another nation AND individuals and organizations in our own country. Then we got the guns... Okay. So stepping off the boat, there were wild animals they didn't know about and the native Americans who were pissed off, rightly so, for our basic invasion of their land. Guns were necessary and as a nation trying to break away from forced religious beliefs, another country who had burned women alive lol, yeah very fucking necessary and they never knew when war would happen. Owning guns was an individual's right to protect themselves, their land and new freedoms at all costs. People say well that was hundreds of years ago. Those were absolutely needed then. But now we have people in our own government wanting to take these rights away. Our own government. It's so obvious to me and I know some people don't see it like I do. But those amendments are what makes us free Americans and if we give up our rights to speech and guns, we are quickly going to collapse. I'm telling you right now if you give one inch on the 2nd Amendment, the Radical Left is going to take a mile. That's how they operate. They play for keeps. a well balanced breakfast, being necessary to the start of a good day, the right of the people to keep and eat food shall not be infringed. Whose right is it? The well balanced breakfast’s or the people? What you are describing is not a 2nd amendment right but sedition and treason. The same words England used to describe the US once upon a time. I’m under no illusions about this being the same thing, however the founders enshrined gun rights in the constitution should we ever get there. I do not want to be lectured on gun control by a guy who left $7 billion in weapons to the Taliban. -- Fournier “Arms” is inclusive of all arms, not exclusive of some arms. The regulations started due to Hollywood using the Thompson SMG in mobster movies. very few people were using Thompsons to commit crimes... but because of media portrayal, here we are. American government is the new tyrannical world power, and is the one the founding fathers would be worried about if they were here today If you are actually pro 2a, then you recognize that encryption and access to private and secure communications are also technically arms, and necessary as well. There's a reason that encryption tools and tech has been treated like arms by governments and military all over the world. I'm pro 2a and I'm pro 1a, and I'm anti gov spying on it's own citizens. Plenty of us understand that freedom of communication and organization is just as important as access to arms. Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary. -Karl Marx, BLM, Progressive Democrats, etc still quote this guy yet somehow disavow this part the real problem, among many others, is a fiat money debt based economy that favors the wealthy elite who strives to control us by dividing us. School shootings have been in the public conscious for decades. The UT shooting was in 66 and was national news...so at least since the 60s...faculty, former students, current students, and outsiders have all shot up schools killing and injuring people. Elementary and middle schools were getting shot up in the early and mid 90s before Columbine happened. Only real difference is the "news" media changed along with the internet, now everything is an instant worldwide 24x7 "crisis". So the same kid can be given a gun and sent to the middle east but can't have one here? universal background checks were going to pass. Do you remember what one of the big hang ups was? The registry. That’s a non starter, it’s absolutely unacceptable to pro 2A types for the government to maintain a database of who owns what. In the case of the Buffalo shooter the tools were already in place to flag him, he mad written and verbal threats over a long period of time. Once again, the government failed to use the tools it already has but we’re supposed to vote to give them more? The ability of the INDIVIDUAL to protect themselves from TYRANNY, everyone THINKS because of PROGRAMMING that it was all about taxes, well it wasn't, people were having their tongues cut out for speaking ill (Based on Facts of Action) of certain people and groups, RELIGIOUS GROUPS, and when those groups are trying to be placed as the governing body to commit more TYRANNIES through limited principles of applied power, sometimes you need to ARMED to protect yourself from them. NOW one of the societal problems is that "REASONABLE DOUBT" clause in which one organized criminal group is planting evidence against another group whether criminal or not or planting evidence against themself which has clearly been planted but blaming that plant on others to create such "Reasonable Doubt". SO YES you do need to be ARMED because that is inside the Government not just on the outside of it pulling the strings. And it wasnt just one government, it was the majority of the world's governments at the same time as a power play to bring about an unelected global authority. Maybe also an important reason to have guns. Maybe. Why does US send these weapons of war to secure a foreign border, yet calls Americans racist for attempting to protect their own You never know when or where the next despotic tyrants will pop up, but they will always give themselves away by trying to take the means to defeat them away from the people. Democrats are today's Despotic Tyrants. They're also the biggest anti-freespeech conspirators and censors the planet has ever seen. a shitload of new Constitutional Carry state legislature had cute little additions that forbade Political carry because the government fucking hates when citizens exercise their rights. The founders could not have been more clear they believed the government would not last and would need to be forcefully removed. Why do you think it’s necessary to the security of a free state? Christ some people here are dense. When such a gang of tyrants attack the 1st and 2nd amendments like that, it's time to throw them out, permanently. The 2A doesn't prevent the government from killing its citizens. It just makes it prohibitively costly to do so at scale. Which is why if it is ever repealed, liberty is dead. The 2A is like countries owning nukes— it preserves the balance of power. The fact that we have the weapons keeps the government in check so they never push beyond a certain line. In Utopian Democracy the power of the people lies purely in voting rights. We don't, and won't ever, live in such fantasy utopia. Thus we maintain other powers and rights. Since when is believing in the Constitution right-wing? It shouldn’t matter what your party affiliation. If you are an American, you believe in the US Constitution. If you don’t? Leave. 60 years of military buildup just got run out of Afghanistan by a bunch of goat farmers with cold war era AKs The taliban achieved a comprehensive victory against an invader that was much richer and had much more advanced technology. That Rebellion, by the way, was started because Massachusett's state taxes were deemed too high by the rebels because it had led to many of the state's citizens becoming deeply indebted to the state. The US State taxes ~45%, that's ~44% more than before, revolutions started over ~1%... you're ~45x past due to revolt. Free speech should be a right of all people, being told what you can and can’t say is some communist shit. Now just cause you can say what you want Doesn’t mean you don’t have to deal with consequences. As far a guns, I believe it was to protect the American people from the American government, being able to protect yourself and your family is also a right everyone should have. Why is it ok to deny the right to bear arms to marijuana users? Why can I have my firearms seized for fishing without a license? I noticed how you didn't mention Hunter Biden lying on his handgun permit paperwork which resulted in a handgun being thrown in the trash by a schoolyard. owning a gun IS a right. And it is directly related to the right to self-defense. If you want to outsource your safety to a civil institution you go right ahead. If we need a license to drive a transportation method, we need a license to own a purpose built tool for killing. Lol, you only got a DL because you fell for their mind control that said you needed one, they never existed since the dawn of cars. when people with guns (the government) tells you, that they will offer security, in exchange for your freedom, by taking away one of the few, if not only, means you are able to resist people with guns, you need to ask yourself who are they doing this for. Your security or their power hold. I agree. I also feel a lot safer with a countryside full of hicks with guns. Seriously. After witnessing the fascist shit other countries have pulled the last couple years, I'm glad our wannabe authoritarians in power can't just strongarm the nation, thanks to the implicit threat of our firearms. people who just won a revolution against a tyrannical government because they had full access to military weapons wanted to guarantee their citizens that same right in perpetuity due to their concern and importantly for many founders assumption they US would eventually slip into tyranny. People who think the 2A changes meaning with time are uneducated on the historical and context and speeches on it and have also clearly had the blinders on these last few years. 2A is more necessary than ever and these threatened infringements and bans could lead us down a very very bad road The second amendment was added to protect against slave uprisings. Now that everyone are slaves to Govts and Corps, and people are angry at them for that, the Govt is protecting itself by removing their ability to uprise. The government has been screwing everything up so they need your guns to protect themselves Alexander Hamilton wrote #29 of “The Federalist Papers“. He was very explicit in why we have this right. The reason for allowing all citizens access to guns is so they have guns to shoot and kill politicians, soldiers, and policeman. "What country before ever existed a century and a half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure." - Thomas Jefferson A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined…” – George Washington, First Annual Address, to both House of Congress, January 8, 1790 “And that the said Constitution be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press, or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms; or to raise standing armies, unless necessary for the defense of the United States, or of some one or more of them; or to prevent the people from petitioning, in a peaceable and orderly manner, the federal legislature, for a redress of grievances; or to subject the people to unreasonable searches and seizures of their persons, papers or possessions.” -George Washington, Debates of the Massachusetts Convention of February 6, 1788 “That no man should scruple, or hesitate a moment, to use arms in defence of so valuable a blessing, on which all the good and evil of life depends, is clearly my opinion.” -George Washington, letter to George Mason April 5th 1769 “It may be laid down, as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every citizen who enjoys the protection of a free government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even of his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency.” -George Washington, letter to Alexander Hamilton May 2, 1783 John Adams Gun Quotes “A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent on others for essential, particularly for military, supplies.” -John Adams, speech to US Congress January 8, 1790 Thomas Jefferson Gun Quotes “No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.” – Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Constitution, Draft 1, 1776 “I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.” – Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, January 30, 1787 “What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms.” – Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, December 20, 1787 “The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes…. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” – Thomas Jefferson, Commonplace Book (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria), 1774-1776 “A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.” – Thomas Jefferson, letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785 “The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.” – Thomas Jefferson, letter to to John Cartwright, 5 June 1824 “On every occasion [of Constitutional interpretation] let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying [to force] what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, [instead let us] conform to the probable one in which it was passed.” – Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Johnson, 12 June 1823 “I enclose you a list of the killed, wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of any consequence … I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy.” – Thomas Jefferson, letter to Giovanni Fabbroni, June 8, 1778 Benjamin Franklin Gun Quotes “They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” – Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759 “Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.

They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers.” – George Mason, Address to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 4, 1788 “That a well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural and safe defense of a free state; that standing armies, in time of peace, should be avoided as dangerous to liberty; and that, in all cases, the military should be under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power.” -George Mason, Virginia Declaration of Rights, June 12 1776 Noah Webster Gun Quotes “Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed, as they are in almost every country in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops.” – Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution, October 10, 1787 James Madison Gun Quotes “Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of.” – James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788 “The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country.” – James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789 “…the ultimate authority, wherever the derivative may be found, resides in the people alone…” – James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788

Gun Expert's Study Suggests a Simple, Powerful Solution to Stop Mass Shootings at Schools https://trendingpolitics.com/gun-experts-study-suggests-a-simple-powerful-so... The mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas has left many alarmed parents seeking immediate ways to better secure our schools against such future horrific attacks. Beyond improving police response and ensuring basic security measures like locking doors during school hours are followed, there is one additional measure that can be installed to enhance school safety. It is, however, controversial: Permitting teachers and school resource officers on school grounds to be armed. While many parents who support gun control measures would shudder at the thought of allowing armed teachers at the schools their little ones attend, there is surprising evidence that suggests it may be a simple, powerful solution. A 2019 study conducted by gun violence expert John Lott Jr. shows there wasn't one school where a teacher was armed that had a non-suicidal gun violence incident during school hours. "After the Columbine school shooting 20 years ago, one of the more significant changes in how we protect students has been the advance of legislation that allows teachers to carry guns at schools, the study notes. "There are two obvious questions: Does letting teachers carry create dangers? Might they deter attackers? Twenty states currently allow teachers and staff to carry guns to varying degrees on school property, so we don’t need to guess how the policy would work." "There has yet to be a single case of someone being wounded or killed from a shooting, let alone a mass public shooting, between 6 AM and midnight at a school that lets teachers carry guns," the study continues. "Fears of teachers carrying guns in terms of such problems as students obtaining teachers guns have not occurred at all, and there was only one accidental discharge outside of school hours with no one was really harmed." "While there have not been any problems at schools with armed teachers, the number of people killed at other schools has increased significantly – doubling between 2001 and 2008 versus 2009 and 2018," the report adds. [IMG] The study's dataset shows only a few schools with potential qualifying incidents where teachers were armed, but the cases were either suicides or fell outside of school hours (5 total incidents). The one case that came the closest to qualifying was a 2017 incident that took place in a school parking lot outside of Spanish Fork High School at 2:30 a.m. in the morning. "A 19-year-old man shot an 18-year-old man in the parking lot of Spanish Fork High School before turning the gun on himself early Friday morning," Fox 13 reported at the time. "Police were called to the school parking lot near 99 N. 300 W. at about 2:30 a.m. where they found the 18-year-old had been shot in the upper arm." [IMG] "Officers said the victim and other witnesses ran when the shooter fired three to five shots in the air and also shot at a witness," the report added. As of January 1, 2020, 28 states allow schools to arm teachers or staff in at least some cases or as part of a specific program.* (See list below) [IMG] Education Week, which tracks school shootings, reports that "there have been 119 school shootings in which at least one person was killed or injured since 2018." [IMG] Education Week also provides a map for the school shooting locations in 2020. We will examine those incidents due to there being a more authoritative list on states allowing teachers or staff at that time (provided below). Certain anti-gun activist websites proved to be unreliable in terms of their relevant lists. Additionally, current regulations are in flux, as Louisiana and Ohio are now moving to allow armed teachers. It must be qualified, however, that remote learning in some school districts during the 2020 Covid response limits the generalizability of the analysis. According to Education Week, there were 10 school shooting incidents in 2020. Of those 10 cases, 3 incidents in states that permit armed teachers or school resource officers occurred outside of the school building itself (Florida, Ohio, Texas), and 4 incidents appear to be accidental discharges (California, Florida, Texas). (This is consistent with many — but not all —mass shooting reports in 2021 and 2022.) There was one case that took place inside a school gym in Dallas, Texas in January 2020. A 15-year-old shot and killed an 18-year-old after a brawl over a basketball game and also wounded a police officer. The teenage suspect later turned himself in. It is now 2022, and there are more cases than in 2020. The source cites 27 school shooting incidents already. The most startling case, of course, is that of the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School that killed 19 schoolchildren and two teachers. In the case of Uvalde, contrary to early misleading reports from the Texas Department of Public Safety, "there was no school resource officer on site" that confronted the mass shooter at Robb Elementary School. The Uvalde case highlights that there is a major difference between allowing a teacher or school resource officer to carry a gun and there actually being one on hand to stop a mass shooter should one attack. The deadly mass shooting incidents that appear to shock the public conscience the most are ones that occur in schools. According to the strictest technical definition, there have been thirteen deadly mass shootings in the United States since 1966. That doesn’t make the events any less tragic, but it does suggest that the solution does not lie in depriving law-abiding gun owners of personal defense firearms, but rather in identifying young persons prone to mass violence and ensuring there are responsible adults nearby who can put a quick end to a potential shooting rampage. While there are states that are now moving to implement stricter gun control laws in the aftermath of Uvalde — namely, Colorado, Connecticut, New York, and California — there are nearly as many states seeking to arm qualified teachers: Florida, Louisiana, and Ohio. Each list can be expected to grow in the weeks and months ahead. Along with these new state proposals, there should be more comprehensive analyses on school shootings and the effects of arming teachers and school resource officers to inform this vitally important debate. * [Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

https://nitter.net/pic/orig/media%2FFWcH85JUUAATJD1.jpg "Like leaking of Roe v Wade, this doxing was intentional -- The Internet" Bonta, who refuses to ban the state from owning guns to wage both his power and the state's murderous power, is a corrupt commie Democrat authoritarian school indoctrinator who helps his wife commit nepotism into office, baits the race sex and abortion wars, and publishes gun lists so Democrats mob of harassers stalkers threateners house protesters vandals and actual violent actors can persecute them, and street thugs can break in and steal their guns thus creating more street violence for more faux saviour Dems. This is exactly why there must never be any gun registries. History repeatedly proves that databases of humans are always abused by evil powers against rights freedom and ultimately the lives of those in them.

On June 28, 2022, Bonta released an online dashboard containing data on firearms in what he said was an effort to improve transparency and increase public trust.[36] The following day, the site was taken down after discovering that an unauthorized disclosure of personal information took place. The dashboard had allowed sensitive information about concealed-carry weapon permit holders in the state to be accessed and downloaded. Additionally, data from the following dashboards were also impacted: Assault Weapon Registry, Handguns Certified for Sale, Dealer Record of Sale, Firearm Safety Certificate, and Gun Violence Restraining Order dashboards. The information exposed included names, date of birth, gender, race, driver’s license number, addresses, and criminal history.[37] Gun rights advocates criticized the breach, with the California Rifle & Pistol Association saying it had "put the lives of judges, prosecutors, domestic violence victims and everyday citizens at risk" and gave criminals "a map to their homes". The leak happened less than a week after a major Supreme Court case, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. City of New York, had struck down New York's system for issuing concealed carry permits, systems that had been allowed in California counties prior to the ruling.

Signed into law by Reagan in the late 60s It was passed by a Democrat controlled assembly and Democrat controlled senate. Signed by a republican governor. Both parties are shit. This photo is from downtown LA during the Rodney King Riots. It is a reminder of what happens why the 2nd amendment and our rights to bear assault rifles shall NOT be infringed. Link to a video that explains the story of what happened and why the Rooftop Koreans are American Heroes for arming themselves to protect themselves and their property from chaos and villainy. There is a conspiracy to tell you that you don’t need to defend yourself with a weapon, but even in this “civilized” and modern society, where rioters and mobs outnumber and outrun law enforcement, you need to be able to defend yourself. The police, the army, none of them will save you if these events repeat themselves in our lifetimes. Considering the overall health of the country, that day is looking like it’s getting closer and closer. Something that seems to have been lost in the telling of this story over the years is that the LA police, who were doing nothing for nobody that day........see the Reginald Denny beating for an example......swooped in and carted all the Rooftop Koreans off to the station house and as soon as they were gone their stores were immediately looted and burned down by the mob........predictably so of course. Rooftop Koreans, OG Korean gangsters having gun fights with people stealing in thiers shops. In the United-States people have to have guns to defend them or thier shit if not it would be hell on earth, don't get me wrong it kida is ATM but it will be worse if people give away thiers weapons... Exactly. Things will get worse in this country if the state is the only group that is armed. It never works out, hasn’t in all of human history. Don’t let foreigners bark that they have low crime rates. They have tyrannical governments oppressing them constantly and forcing mandates and corrupt and hypocritical rules on them. Imagine a huge crowd of blm, antifa and leftists coming to destroy your existence for some stupid reasons and you have only a kitchen knife to defend yourself and your family. We don’t have to imagine it anymore, they’re in every city in America thanks to the media Reginald Denny didnt have a gun. He got yanked out of his truck and beaten close to death. Black on white ass beating. The main takeaway from this story as an analogy for current times should not be about "self defense" it should be noting what happened when these people tried to defend themselves and that was that the police who were doing absolutely NOTHING then decided to step in.......arrested all these guys that had the rifles, carted them off to the station house which of course allowed the mob to swoop back in and burn all those stores down.......same then as it is now........see Kenosha Well if you ever have an intruder in your home and the cops don't show up in time I'll just blame you for not having bars on your windows. If you have to use a kitchen knife to defend yourself I will again blame you for not securing your home well enough. After all, the intruder wouldn't have been harmed if he couldn't get in. You should really give humans a break, honestly. Do you realize what we evolved from? What is naturally in our DNA? Kids fight naturally. We can be very violent creatures, because we are only RECENTLY TAMED ANIMALS. Once you realize this, you may find more happiness in life. Just be glad you're more evolved/civilized. Not everyone is. And I truly believe it's not always their choice. Whats an assault rifle? It’s a rifle that every American should own if we lived in a country that still followed the United States constitution. What the government owns, we the people should own. There were no assault rifles in the videos, only at most your everyday dead common vanilla AR/AK/Mini semi-auto box-maggers, shotguns, handguns. This country needs more roof Koreans! I love this image. It's a pity we didn't have teams of korean shooters lining the rooftops during the most.recent BLM riots lol. That’s because a supporters were given up as sacrifices to the establishment as far right wing radicals. Just look at Kenosha So inspirational actually. I love the bandanas too. Such badasses defending their livelihoods. True heroes for their families. I wonder if any of them got military training in the country they are from.. (S. Korea maybe?). Yeah I loved this. Exercising their rights, using solid tactics, being immune from claims of "muh racism" due to their minority status. Weren’t the riots also caused by a Korean store owner shooting a teenage girl she mistakenly thought was stealing a thing of Orange juice? I guess it depends how narrow of a view you wanna take. I’d argue there were some underlying causes, but yes the trigger was the not guilty verdict of those police officers who beat the shit out of Rodney King. Freemason Socialist Trudeau neutered the Canadian men and banned their guns. Freemason liberal Biden and the democrats are hard at work trying to ban America's guns. Soon, the freemasonic NWO will be a reality, and freedom will be a thing of the past. Kyle Rittenhouse was found innocent because he committed no crime. The leftoids lost their minds over it and forgot about it a week later I am quite aware of the story. It's a great modern day self defense story, imo, and along the lines of what you were referring to The real story of Rittenhouse is that he shot 3 rioters and managed to hit a literal serial child rapist, a felon carrying an illegal firearm, and a woman-beater. People have no clue how fragile "society" really is, when it breaks down and options vanish, a firearm is the best defense.

Women are converting in droves, away from the Democrats dangerous and unconstitutional anti-gun politics, to gun ownership and safety... safety from the violence the Democrats created in their Big Cities... Women Now Make Up The Largest Group Of New Gun Owners https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2022/07/07/women-new-gun-owners/ https://www.instagram.com/beachytrex/ https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/hsph-in-the-news/more-women-are-becoming-g... https://www.nrawomen.com/content/nssf-survey-says-women-comprised-one-third-... https://www.instagram.com/jerseyl18/ The last couple of years has pushed many on-the-fence people from owning zero guns to at least own one gun. Whether it’s out of a newfound enjoyment for shooting sports or for personal protection, people just seem to be wising up to the benefits of being a firearms owner. Of those new gun owners, women now make up the largest group accounting for nearly half of new gun owners over the last five years. According to a recent study conducted by Harvard University, women now make up 42% of new gun owners accounting for nearly half of all new gun owners over the past 5-years. This number is up 14% from that same span of time and 3.5 million women joined the ranks of new gun owners between January 2019 and April 2021. An NSSF survey partially backs up this claim by the Harvard study by stating that 1/3rd of 2021’s new gun owners were women. Keen observers of the firearms industry might have also noticed a distinct shift in the way that firearms companies are producing marketing material with many new products like the recent release of the PDP F Series being specifically marketed towards female shooters. Shooting organizations like “Shoot like a Girl” have also cropped up featuring female firearms instructors whose aim is to bring more women into shooting sports and provide them with a more comfortable environment to train in. In the study conducted by Harvard University, one-quarter of the women surveyed said self-defense was the main reason they wanted to purchase a firearm for the first time with many citing the uptick in civil unrest and reduction of law enforcement assets during the summer of 2020. Another reason cited by many women as to why they’ve armed themselves is that many of them are now living alone and feel more comfortable having a firearm in the home for self-defense. Regardless of what is spurring this increase in gun ownership amongst women, I think this is a net positive for the firearms industry as a whole and the women that the industry is trying to serve. Let us know if the ladies that you know are taking on an increased interest in firearms and what they are saying as to how or why they’re getting into firearms.

Gun control is dead, stopped by a civilian with a clean shot, demand for right to keep and bear arms, self defense buyers, takes off after public news of the effective on-hand demo spreads... Mass Shooter At Indiana Mall Killed By Armed "Good Samaritan" Civilian A man with a rifle walked into an Indiana mall and opened fire in a food court Sunday evening. A law-abiding citizen with a permit to carry a handgun responded in seconds and was able to shoot and kill the suspect, ending the rampage. The Greenwood Police Department said a lone suspect entered the food court area of the Greenwood Park Mall, located on Highway 31 on the south side of Indianapolis, around 1800 local time. The suspect was armed with a rifle and several magazines of ammunition and immediately began firing. He was identified as an adult male, and police have yet to release a motive. The suspect killed three people and injured two during the rampage but was stopped short by a 22-year-old man carrying a gun lawfully. Police have not shared the man's name, but local authorities are already calling the citizen who stopped the shooter a "real hero." "Someone we are calling the 'Good Samaritan' was able to shoot the assailant and stop further bloodshed," Mayor Mark W. Myers wrote in a Facebook post. "This person saved lives tonight. On behalf of the City of Greenwood, I am grateful for his quick action and heroism," Myers continued. Greenwood Police Chief Jim Ison reported during a media briefing from the mall's parking lot that "the real hero of the day -- is the citizen that was lawfully carrying a firearm in the food court and was able to stop the shooter almost as soon as he began." The left-leaning press fails to headline 'a good guy with a gun' stopped Sunday's mass shooting (though it was mentioned within each respective article). As the national debate rages about stricter gun control measures, a good guy with a gun neutralized a bad guy with a gun in his tracks.

ATF Shows Up At People's Homes To Confiscate Rare Breed FRT-15 Triggers https://www.ammoland.com/2022/08/atf-showing-up-at-peoples-doors-confiscatin... https://vimeo.com/486488684 https://vimeo.com/user126802150 A new report from the gun blog website AmmoLand Shooting Sports News claims that Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agents have shown up at the homes of "multiple people" to confiscate previously legal forced reset triggers for AR-15 style rifles that were recently classified as "machine guns." According to the report, it is unknown how the ATF acquired the customers' information - though the owners in question acquired their triggers via Gun Broker or the Rare Breed Triggers website. Rare Breed Triggers FRT - Animation from RARE BREED TRIGGERS on Vimeo. "It is possible the ATF received the customers' information from credit card processors or shipping companies," AmmoLand said, adding the federal agency had received customer information from Authorize.net and Stamps.com to track people who've bought 80% lowers from gun parts kits manufacturer Polymer80. A person named "Paul Britton Finch" is allegedly one of those gun owners who got a knock on the door from ATF agents. "Just a heads up, I got a visit today from the AFT for a trigger I bought from gunbroker and one from Rare Breed directly...hide your dogs, ladies and gentlemen. They're comin' a knocking," Finch said in a post in what appears to be a gun forum. He continued: "I don't want to say much more on here because they [ATF] do infact watch this group and who posts what information. so take what you will of it. They're out there with all the information you used to buy them with and enough to prosecute you if they want to push it. Yeah it sucks, but that's the reality of it right now." Finch provided pictures of the special agent's identification card who visited his home that served him with a "warning notice: you may be in violation of federal law." The notice was dated Aug. 16. We have thoroughly covered the ATF's battle against Rare Breed Triggers. The gun parts company once legally sold a drop-in trigger for an AR-15-style rifle that forces the trigger to reset at such a high speed that it increases the weapon's fire rate.

ATF Tries To Ban Forced Reset Triggers As People Begin To 3D Print At Home Under the Biden administration, the ATF has waged war against gun companies, parts manufacturers, and law-abiding citizens. Last month, a Delaware man was stunned when special agents rang his doorbell and asked if they could do an inventory audit of his legally-obtained firearms.

One year later, the US House of Representatives passed a bill to ban importing, selling, manufacturing, or transferring semi-automatic assault weapons. However, it has no chance of passing in the Senate. Meanwhile, the online gun community is quickly accelerating the 3D printing technology of guns that can be entirely printed at home, even the plastic ammo. We've pointed out that others have printed weapons at home for under $350, while one company in Austin, Texas, unveiled the 0% lower earlier this year.

Joe Rogan: "Isn't It Fucking Wild", Anti-Gun Hollywood Is Biggest Promoter Of Weapons In Movies Hollywood is the wokest place on earth regarding social responsibility, but when they try to lecture law-abiding Americans on firearms, it's an absolute joke. During a recent episode of the "Joe Rogan Experience" with guest comedian Tim Dillon, Joe Rogan pointed out Hollywood's hypocritical stance on firearms. "Isn't it fucking wild that Hollywood, in general, is very anti-gun, but they promote guns more than any other media on the planet? All their best movies, whether it's 'The Gray Man,' or whether you're watching 'The Terminal List' or 'Mission Impossible. "It's all 'Guns save the day.' Guns kill aliens, guns kill werewolves, guns kill everyone. Everyone bad gets killed by guns ... but guns are bad and you shouldn't have guns.' It's crazy," Rogan said. Virtue-signaling celebs have no trouble profiting off movies featuring violence and guns. However, they love to criticize gun advocacy groups such as the National Rifle Association for making communities less safe. Comedian Bill Maher on his show "Real Time with Bill Maher" on HBO, recently pointed out that children "see 200,000 acts of violence on screens before the age of 18." Maher cited the FBI, who said the common denominator with signs of a school shooter is "fascination with violence-filled entertainment." Maher concluded: "It's funny, Hollywood is the wokest place on earth in every other area of social responsibility… but when it comes to the unbridled romanticization of gun violence — crickets."

Karen Bass on Saturday said her home was broken into late Friday and two firearms were stolen, KTLA 5 reported. Nothing else was stolen from Congresswoman Bass’s home. According to Bass, her firearms were “safely and securely stored.” So no jewelry or cash or anything else of value was taken from Karen Bass’s house. The burglar(s) knew exactly where Bass kept her firearms and only stole two guns. Obviously, Bass knows the thief and the thief knows Bass.

Biden... keeps disrespecting American holidays, 2ndA RKBA, mass protests likely... Republican Representative Shreds Biden For His Gun Comments On Thanksgiving https://conservativebrief.com/comments-68606/ Republican Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs shredded President Joe Biden for going after a fundamental right when he spoke to reporters on a national holiday. The representative spoke to host Carl Higbie when he crushed the president’s comments on Thanksgiving. “How do you turn Thanksgiving holiday into an attack on the Second Amendment? Well this administration can do that at any time. This is one of their big goals,” he said. “I was pretty upset that they would try to distract from the very special day to an attack on our rights, but that’s par for the course for the Biden administration,” the representative said. “This notion that we’re going to go ahead and take away what we believe to be a God given inherent right in this Constitutional Republic because Joe Biden doesn’t know the difference between an automatic, a semi-auto, what he likes to call assault weapons, that’s just absolutely , it’s tyrannical in its way,” he said. Biden took aim at lawful gun owners again this week following a pair of shootings at a club in Colorado and a Walmart in Virginia. In remarks to a reporter, Biden lashed out at all Americans who own “semi-automatic” guns, which, according to published data, amount to more than half of all firearms in private hands. During a press event in Nantucket, Mass., Biden specifically referenced the shooting in Colorado Springs, Colo., where a self-described “non-binary” gunman killed five patrons and wounded nearly 20 others at Club Q, a hot spot for the gay and lesbian community. “The idea we still allow semi-automatic weapons to be purchased is sick,” Biden said. “Just sick. It has no socially redeeming value. Zero. None. Not a single solitary rationale for it except profit for the gun manufacturers.” Another reporter went on to ask the president if he thought he could make any progress on new gun control laws when Republicans take control of the House in January, responding that he would have to take stock of votes first. “I’m going to try,” Biden said. “I’m going to try to get rid of assault weapons.” The president was blasted over his remarks for his overly generalized statement regarding firearms and the tens of millions of Americans who own them. “So essentially all guns are on the Big Guy’s chopping block,” Hollywood actor James Woods tweeted. So essentially all guns are on the Big Guy’s chopping block. https://t.co/EwZlxZROJy — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) November 25, 2022 “Wow. Are there any guns Biden would not ban?” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton noted on Twitter. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., said that Biden was “maligning most gun owners” and added that Americans rejected recent gun control proposals floated by outgoing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). Americans rejected Pelosi’s gun control schemes in the mid terms, yet here is Biden saying he wants to ban modern firearms, and maligning most gun owners. https://t.co/8cXyftBx8j — Thomas Massie (@RepThomasMassie) November 24, 2022 Missouri’s 4th congressional district U.S. Representative-elect Mark Alford called Biden’s stance on gun laws “sheer ignorance,” going on to cite an article noting that semi-automatic weapons make up 50 percent of all gun sales in America. Serving up sheer ignorance for Thanksgiving!! @POTUS now wants to ban ALL semiautomatic weapons. “The idea that we still allow semiautomatic weapons to be purchased is sick” Semiautomatics make up 50% of ALL gun sales in America. https://t.co/181vuX0sQg @NRA — Mark Alford 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@markalfordkc) November 24, 2022 In June, the U.S. Supreme Court handed strengthened the Second Amendment’s individual right to keep and bear arms by striking down a concealed carry law in New York state that a majority of justices viewed as unconstitutionally restrictive. And in October, the Biden administration lost another case in federal court regarding the right. According to reports, U.S. District Judge Joseph Goodwin in Charleston, W. Va., ruled that a federal ban on guns without a serial number or with a serial number removed is unconstitutional in the first such ruling since the U.S. Supreme Court upheld broader gun rights in a June ruling. Goodwin ruled on Wednesday that the ban was inconsistent with the United States’ “historical tradition of firearm regulation,” which is a new standard for deciding Second Amendment cases that the Supreme Court laid out over the summer, Reuters reported, adding: The decision came in a criminal case charging a man, Randy Price, with illegally possessing a gun with the serial number removed that was found in his car. The judge dismissed that charge, though Price is still charged with illegally possessing the gun after being convicted of previous felonies. Price’s lawyer, Lex Coleman, called the decision “thoughtful, measured and accurate.” A spokesperson for the office of U.S. Attorney William Thompson in Charleston, which is prosecuting the case, said the office was “reviewing the ruling and assessing options.” The federal law in question prohibits anyone from transporting a gun with the serial number removed across state lines, or from possessing such a gun if it has ever been transported across state lines. Serial numbers, first required by the federal Gun Control Act of 1968, are intended to prevent illegal gun sales and make it easier to solve crimes by allowing individual guns to be traced.

Joe Biden the raging anger spastic sadistic violent lying gun grabbing constitution violating anti-freedom anti-america[n] commie socialist ignorant abusive asshole tyrant... Biden's brain-rage always exploding and routinely exposed... Rational knowledgeable experienced union member triggers Biden's brain... https://twitter.com/jerrywaynear14/status/1452657208211107841 Dems and Biden Admin now advocating and acting against union railworkers... more power for GovPol, less ability for you to reclaim it... "You will own NOTHING! -- WEF, Schwab" As expected, Democrats have 'crossed a line' and voted to remove labor unions' leverage by approving a bill to force them to accept the railroad labor deal. Pelosi said in a letter to her colleagues last night that Democrats have stood with “hard-working railroaders in their fight against greedy railroad corporations for fairer wages, benefits and working conditions,” she said in the letter. “However, we must act to prevent a catastrophic strike that would touch the lives of nearly every family: erasing hundreds of thousands of jobs, including union jobs; keeping food and medicine off the shelves; and stopping small businesses from getting their goods to market.” House lawmakers voted 290 to 137 on legislation that would force the adoption of a tentative labor agreement by rail workers, using the power of a 1926 law that allows Congress to intervene in railroad disputes that threaten to disrupt the U.S. economy. US equities have rebounded on the news... Any legislation that passes the House will have to be approved by the Senate as well. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) proposed a similar sick-leave measure. As we detailed yesterday, union leaders have already expressed their ire at the intervention. Michael Paul Lindsey, a locomotive engineer in Idaho and steering committee member for Railroad Workers United, told Insider it was a "blatant betrayal," but he wasn't surprised. "I thought it was kind of laughable that anyone would think that either the Democrats or the Republicans actually cared. Bottom line, they care about money," he said. Even so, "there was always that hope in the back of my mind that maybe someone would do something that was actually right for the American worker for once — instead of just what's right for corporate America." Republicans have traditionally philosophically-opposed government intervention into private contractual obligations, and Senator Marco Rubio has vociferously defended the workers' rights: “Just because Congress has the authority to impose a heavy-handed solution does not mean we should,” he said. “It is wrong for the Biden administration, which has failed to fight for workers, to ask Congress to impose a deal the workers themselves have rejected.” House lawmakers are also expected to vote on a second bill that would increase paid sick leave to seven days.

Georgia Restaurant Worker Fatally Shoots Armed Intruder In Self-Defense https://www.theepochtimes.com/georgia-restaurant-worker-fatally-shoots-armed... An employee at a restaurant in Georgia fatally shot an armed intruder in self-defense after the masked assailant pistol-whipped the worker during an attempted robbery, authorities say. An American Philly N Wings in Warner Robins, Georgia. (Courtesy of Google Maps via NTD News) Warner Robins Police Department Sgt. Justin Clark told Fox News in an interview on Tuesday that the intruder, identified as Joshua Hickey, entered an American Philly & Wings restaurant on Dec. 5 and demanded money. “Hickey … had a stolen pistol,” Clark told the network, explaining that he entered the restaurant and demanded money from the manager, which led to a struggle with the employee. The worker, who was not identified, suffered a head injury after being pistol-whipped and knocked to the ground, Clark said. After managing to get back on his feet, the employee pulled his own legally owned pistol and fired three shots at Hickey, striking him twice, according to police. “Once Mr. Hickey was shot, he fled from the restaurant but only made it about 75 yards before collapsing on the street,” the official said. Authorities transported him to the hospital, but he died of his wounds. When Clark was asked in the interview how the worker was doing mentally after experiencing the fatal encounter, he told the anchor the worker “took it pretty hard.” “Of course, nobody wants to be in that situation and … he was doing his best to come out of it okay,” the police sergeant said. In recent years, the United States has seen overall crime increase after enjoying decades of generally declining crime. In particular, robberies, carjacking, burglaries, and theft, have increased over the past year or so. Clark told Fox News that Warner Robins, a city in Houston and Peach counties located in the central part of Georgia, has not necessarily seen an increase in crime, although the area did report “a fair share of crime,” including violent crime and theft. When asked to react to major cities reporting an increase in robberies and homicides in recent years, Clark blamed it on staff shortages, adding that it is hard for law enforcement to do their jobs efficiently nowadays. “It’s terrible, a lot of it has to do with, you know, officer shortages,” he told the network. “Everybody, including us, is dealing with this. Unfortunately, it is hard to get people to do the job nowadays.”

Gavin Newsomw (Gun Grabber) Launches Unconscienable In-Terrorum and gets his ass spanked... Federal Judge To Block "Tyrannical" California Gun Law Provision https://www.theepochtimes.com/federal-judge-to-block-tyrannical-california-g... https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-second-amendment A federal judge said he will block a “tyrannical” provision in an incoming California gun law because it would have the “chilling effect” of discouraging people from challenging the statute in court. Judge Roger Benitez said in a San Diego courtroom on Dec. 16 that he would soon issue an injunction halting part of a state law scheduled to take effect on Jan. 1, according to The Associated Press. The offending provision would require those who fight the state’s gun laws to pay the government’s legal fees should they lose in court and was heavily promoted by California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat with presidential ambitions. The case, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, is Miller v. Bonta, court file 22-cv-1446. The lawsuit is one of many now pending in courts across the country after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled this past June that individuals have a constitutional right to carry firearms in public for self-defense. The so-called loser-pays requirement would produce a “chilling effect” that would hinder state residents from suing to vindicate their legal rights because they would fear having to pay potentially huge lawyers’ tabs, Benitez said, agreeing with Second Amendment advocates. “I can’t think of anything more tyrannical,” said Benitez, who was appointed by former President George W. Bush. Benitez previously ruled against California laws targeting gun ownership. His defense of the Second Amendment has earned him the nickname “St. Benitez” among gun rights activists. In June 2021, the judge found that California’s Assault Weapons Control Act of 1989, which prohibited so-called assault weapons such as the popular AR-15 rifle in the state, ran afoul of the Second Amendment. Weeks later the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit put his ruling on hold. And in March 2019, Benitez found that the state’s ban on large-capacity magazines included in Proposition 63 was unconstitutional. In the case at hand, the judge said he would not prevent the rest of the statute from coming into force, leaving intact provisions that prohibit the sale of certain so-called assault weapons and a ban on guns lacking serial numbers. The California gun law relies on a novel enforcement mechanism inspired by a Texas law enacted last year that crowdsourced abortion enforcement, giving individuals the right to sue over alleged violations of the state’s fetal-heartbeat abortion law. The law allows, for example, for someone who helped a woman obtain an unlawful abortion by driving her to a clinic to be sued. Newsom argues the Texas abortion law is unconstitutional but says if the U.S. Supreme Court upholds it, then his state will rely on the same enforcement mechanism to target Second Amendment protections. The U.S. Supreme Court refused a request to block the Texas law and on Dec. 10, 2021, issued a complex procedural ruling in Whole Woman’s Health v. Jackson, remanding the case to a lower court. Then in June of this year, the high court overturned Roe v. Wade, the 1973 precedent that held abortion was a constitutional right, leading to a flurry of activity in state legislatures and legal challenges to abortion laws in courts across the nation. In court on Dec. 16, Benitez chided lawyers for the state of California who said the state does not intend to enforce the legal fees rules unless the Texas law survives legal scrutiny. “We’re not in a kindergarten sandbox. It’s not about, ‘Mommy he did this to me so I should be able to do this to him,’” Benitez reportedly said. The Epoch Times reached out repeatedly to both sides for comment over the weekend. Bradley Benbrook and Stephen Duvernay, attorneys for the California gun law challengers, and lawyers for the state, Elizabeth K. Watson and Thomas A. Willis, did not reply as of press time. The California Gun Rights Foundation, which is fighting the law, also did not reply to a request for comment. But lawyer Joshua Dale, who represents a San Diego area gun club that is involved in the lawsuit, told Benitez the law would put undue pressure on would-be litigants. “I’m terrified of this law,” Dale said in court, according to the AP. “It would be absolutely devastating to pay the state’s attorney fees. I’ve got kids. I’ve got a mortgage. I could never pay $50,000 or $100,000 without emptying my 401(k) account.”

More unconstitutional Democrat crap shot down by the courts... The Right Of The People To Keep And Bear Arms Shall Not Be Infringed. Judge Keeps Oregon’s Strict Gun Control Measure On Ice https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-guns An Oregon gun-control measure that many predict will wind up in the U.S. Supreme Court remains in limbo. In a Dec 23 hearing, Circuit Court Judge Robert Raschio said he would rule by Jan. 3 whether to lift a temporary restraining order (TRO) on the Oregon Ballot Measure 114 requirement that a background check be completed before a firearm can be sold or transferred. Earlier this month, Raschio issued a TRO on the measure’s permit-to-purchase provision and its ban on magazines that carry 10 or more rounds. Those TROs are still in place. Passed in November with just 50.7 percent of the vote, Ballot Measure 114 was initially scheduled to take effect Dec. 8 but, starting on Dec. 6, faced a flurry of lawsuits. antifa A driver pulled a handgun after Antifa members smashed his truck lights in Salem, Ore., on March 28, 2021. Second Amendment activists say that if fully implemented, Oregon Ballot Measure 114 would adversely impact a citizen’s right of self defense. (Nathan Howard/Getty Images) In a Harney County suit filed on Dec. 6 by Gun Owners of America (GOA), the Gun Owners Federation, Cliff Asmussen, and Joseph Arnold, Raschio issued a TRO just three hours after Federal Court Judge Karin J. Immergut had denied such relief to plaintiffs in one of four related cases. In his ruling, Raschio said the law violated the Oregon state constitution’s right to bear arms and that Oregonians would be “unable to lawfully purchase a firearm or bear a magazine capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition in the State of Oregon.” The Oregon Department of Justice immediately filed a petition asking the Oregon Supreme Court to vacate the lower court’s decision. “We strongly disagree with the decision of the Harney County Circuit Court,” Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum wrote to the court. “Our mandamus petition to the Oregon Supreme Court gives our highest state court the opportunity to weigh in now and reverse the Harney County judge’s ruling.” The state Supreme Court refused to intervene. State Unprepared to Issue Permits On Dec. 13, Raschio heard arguments on the permit-to-purchase provision, which the state acknowledged was not ready to go. The state had declared that it needed until approximately Feb. 8 to implement that system. Lifting the order before the permitting system is ready would cause “irreparable harm to the constitutional right to bear arms,” he said. The judge continued the TRO for this provision. When the state notifies him in writing that it is prepared to roll out the new permitting program, he will schedule a hearing. The court then considered the ban on magazines that hold 10 rounds or more. The state argued that such firearms were not in “common use” when the Second Amendment was ratified. So, they are not protected. The state’s expert, Brian DeLay, associate professor of history at the University of California at Berkeley, testified that high-capacity firearms were an “experimental technology” and not commercially available when the Oregon Constitution was ratified. Experts for the plaintiffs testified that high-capacity firearms have existed since the 16th century. Lewis and Clark Carried High Capacity Firearm Isaac Botkin, the technical and education director at manufacturing company T-Rex Arms for more than a decade, described a long history of firearms capable of holding more than 10 rounds, the most famous being one carried by the Lewis and Clark Expedition. It was in 1804-06 that Capt. Meriwether Lewis and Lt. William Clark led the expedition to explore the Louisiana Purchase and the Pacific Northwest. “Meriwether Lewis carried a firearm that had the capability of 20 or 22 rounds that was quite effective,” he said. The state’s attorney argued that Botkin shouldn’t be allowed to make any “historical conclusions” on the history of guns, claiming that he is not an expert. The judge disagreed and allowed Botkin to continue. Plaintiff’s Attorney Tony Aiello Jr. argued that magazines that hold more than 10 rounds are standard for guns manufactured today. He said those guns are “essentially the same firearm, just modified by design and function,” as some of the nation’s earliest guns. Raschio asked whether magazine restrictions would “reasonably promote public safety by restraining a constitutional right to bear arms” as claimed in the ballot measure. Aiello argued that it would not, claiming that the ban would deny law-abiding Oregonians the ability to defend themselves while criminals continue to ignore the law. Background Check Provision Scrutinized Convinced that the ban would violate Oregonians’ rights under the state constitution, Raschio also extended the TRO on the magazine restriction. “Based upon the preliminary evidence, the result of BM 114 would be a near absolute prohibition on handguns and many other firearms with their magazines,” Raschio wrote. The Dec. 23 hearing focused primarily on the measure’s requirement that a background check is completed before a firearm can be sold or transferred. Oregon special Attorney General Harry B. Wilson argued that the completed background-check requirement would save lives, is constitutional, and wasn’t explicitly challenged by the plaintiffs. A licensed firearms dealer can legally deliver a purchased gun after three business days if the required federal background check is not complete—what gun control advocates call the “Charleston Loophole.” Measure 114 would end that by giving the state more time to complete background checks. Measure Offers No Guarantee of Expediency “Although a significant percentage of background checks are completed automatically within minutes, many require additional time,” Wilson wrote to the court. “As a result, in some instances, individuals with felony criminal histories can obtain a firearm because the transferer can deliver the firearm after three days and before the background check is complete.” Aiello argued that the federal law ensures a gun buyer doesn’t have to wait indefinitely. He claimed Measure 114 offers no guarantee that background checks will be processed promptly. “This is infringement because … they can slow-walk background checks or not do them whatsoever,” he said. Ironically, the hearing on background checks took place as Oregon had nearly 40,000 people waiting for their background checks to be completed. The adoption of Measure 114 has caused a spike in gun purchases, and the Oregon State Police haven’t been able to keep up. “While we are pleased that GOA’s suit has thrown sand in the gears of the state’s tyrannical and rabid effort to disarm the law-abiding, the reality is that the queue of people waiting for their property is growing and barely moving,” a spokesman for the Oregon Firearms Federation told The Epoch Times. “People’s rights are being denied right this minute.”

Politicians don't ban guns because they want to see you live, they could give a fuck about you other than to keep you around as their stupid slaves, they ban guns to keep you from rising up and killing them to win back Freedom from their tyranny... Biden and Brazil's Lula explain... Brazil Bans Firearms From Capital Ahead Of Lula's Inauguration https://www.theepochtimes.com/brazil-bans-firearms-from-capital-ahead-of-lul... https://www.theepochtimes.com/t-firearms Brazilian Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes issued a temporary firearms ban in Brasilia, the capital of Brazil, on Wednesday ahead of the Jan. 1 inauguration of President-elect Luiz Inacio “Lula” da Silva. The decision was made as a precautionary measure, according to the judge, and will last until Jan. 2, the day after the inauguration. Those who violate the ban risk being arrested. Members of law enforcement and security forces are exempt from the ban, as are those employed by private security companies. Specifically, the temporary ban suspends licenses that allow hunters, marksmen, and collectors to carry guns and ammunition in the region. In his ruling, de Moraes said the ban was needed to ensure public safety after a rise in the number of “terrorist groups financed by shameless magnates” committing crimes in recent weeks, CNN reported. Incoming Justice Minister Flavio Dino said that da Silva’s team had requested the gun restrictions be put in place. Dino also praised the move for bolstering security at the inauguration. Tensions have been running high in Brazil since da Silva’s victory against conservative incumbent Jair Bolsonaro was certified on Dec. 12. Thousands of Bolsonaro supporters across the country have been protesting the results of the election over claims of fraud and calling for the military to intervene. Lawyers for Bolsonaro later challenged the outcome of the election and requested that the electoral authority invalidate the votes cast on some of the country’s electronic voting equipment. That challenge was rejected by de Moraes. Bolsonaro has not yet conceded the results of the election.

(Alexandre Schneider/Getty Images) Registered Gun Owners Rise in Brazil The number of registered gun owners in Brazil jumped six-fold to about 700,000 under Bolsonaro’s efforts to relax gun laws, beginning in 2019. Shortly before the ruling to ban guns in the capital, police arrested a 54-year-old gas station manager over his alleged planting and possession of explosive devices at Brasilia International Airport. The suspect allegedly told police that he planned “to provoke a military intervention and the decree of a state of siege to prevent the installation of communism in Brazil.” Da Silva and his Workers Party led Brazil for two terms from 2003 to 2010, during which he implemented a string of social justice policies, including anti-hunger and income-transfer programs in which the government subsidized electricity and food prices and transferred cash to the poor. He also helped establish relations with other BRICS countries: Russia, India, China, and South Africa. However, he was banned from returning to power in 2018 after he was convicted on charges of money laundering and corruption at the state-owned oil and petrol company, Petrobrás. He was subsequently sentenced to 12 years in prison following an investigation into the scheme. Throughout his time in prison, da Silva maintained his innocence and called the case against him politically motivated. His conviction was later overturned by the Supreme Court when seven of 11 justices agreed that he should be tried in the state in which he lives as opposed to the state in which he was accused. A new trial has not yet been scheduled in court regarding the charges.

Biden's unconstitutional nonsense grabs will fall to US Courts... The ATF has finally unveiled its "final rule" regarding pistol braces. https://twitter.com/GunOwners/status/1613986202302005249 https://www.gunowners.org/great-victory-gun-rights-activists-celebrate-as-tr... https://www.gunowners.org/na10042022/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsARzvLo7aE This rule, also called "Factoring Criteria for Firearms with Attached Stabilizing Braces," could result in serious criminal charges for owners of up to 40 million guns if they do not register their braced firearms with ATF. 🚨BREAKING🚨 The @ATFHQ just released @JoeBiden's unconstitutional pistol brace ban that affects as many as 40,000,000 lawfully purchased firearms. Read the new rule here ⤵️https://t.co/dVWgf3isNo pic.twitter.com/6dYftjaDXQ — Gun Owners of America (@GunOwners) January 13, 2023 GOA's Legal & Federal Affairs team are currently going over the final rule with a fine-toothed comb, but here's what we know so far. According to the final rule, gun owners who possess braced firearms will have 120 days to destroy, reconfigure, register, turn in their firearms to ATF, or face NFA violations which include $250,000 in fines and a hefty prison sentence. In addition, ATF has released a list titled "Commercially available firearms equipped with a stabilizing brace that are short-barreled rifles." ATF claims that the list is representative of how the agency will apply the definition of "rifle" to firearms equipped with a stabilizing brace. The immediate logistics of this final rule have been called into question by even the anti-gun corporate media. It is a well-known fact that ATF's NFA division consistently misses its own performance benchmarks and routinely sees wait times for ATF form approvals and tax stamps in the 300-400 day range. If 40 million firearms are added to that waitlist, it is logical to assume that gun owners forced to comply with this unconstitutional registration scheme may wait years in limbo. But don't despair! Gun Owners of America is currently pursuing multiple actions to defeat this unconstitutional ATF overreach on America's 2nd Amendment Rights. The first is to work with members of Congress to overturn the rule via the Congressional Review Act. The Congressional Review Act allows members of Congress to introduce a Joint Resolution of Disapproval to reverse any agency rule or action they deem unconstitutional. Of course, if Congress doesn't cooperate, GOA will not give up. We are prepared to file a lawsuit immediately and fight this subversion of the lawmaking process in the court system. Erich Pratt, Gun Owners of America's Senior Vice President, had this to say: "This administration continues to find new ways to attack gun owners, and this time their target is brace-equipped firearms that allow persons with disabilities to safely and effectively use pistols. We will continue to work with our industry partners to amplify the disapproving voices in the firearms industry, and the Gun Owners Foundation, our sister legal arm, will be filing suit in the near future." Aidan Johnston, GOA's Director of Federal Affairs, added: "President Biden just initiated the largest federal gun registration scheme in our nation's history without even the passage of a new law. GOA is actively working with Congress to pass a resolution blocking this rule under the Congressional Review Act, and we continue to lobby lawmakers to support Rep. Clyde and Sen. Marshall's Stop Harassing Owners of Rifles Today (SHORT) Act. If President Biden will not sign such legislation, then Congress must defund this rogue agency." GOA has a history of overturning these unconstitutional rule changes. In 2020, when the ATF under the Trump administration attempted to regulate pistol braces, GOA rallied our members to take action. GOA members flooded the proposed rule with comments. Because of this, ATF abandoned its attempt and withdrew the rulemaking. While GOA is prepared to take the ATF to court over this issue, we're interested in cutting the ATF's ability to regulate Short Barreled Rifles, Short Barreled Shotguns, and similar types of firearms. To strip the ATF of its ability to regulate these types of firearms, we're targeting the core of the issue, the National Firearms Act. The outdated and unconstitutional NFA allows ATF the leeway to make these unconstitutional rule changes. We're working with Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas and Congressman Andrew Clyde of Georgia to pass the SHORT Act, which would remove Short Barreled Rifles and Shotguns from the NFA. But we can't do it alone. We need your help fighting back against the rogue ATF and the anti-gun Biden administration. Help us fight by calling your Senators and Congress members and asking them to support the SHORT Act and the Joint Resolution of Disapproval.

Constitutional carry *is* open carry. Constitutional concealed carry implies open carry. https://www.gunowners.org/membership-levels/ Florida RINO's Refuse To Amend Pro-Gun Bill In Defiance Of DeSantis The Republican supermajority in Florida is against legalizing open carry. Please call the Florida Legislature at (850) 717-5019 & (850) 487-5028 and let them know you want open carry added to the bill. Even after repeated statements in favor of the law change by Governor Ron DeSantis this week, the Republicans in Florida's legislative branch don't seem too keen on adding the legalization of open carry to their constitutional carry bill. To make matters worse, Republican leadership is openly dismissive of the idea of legalizing open carry, something that is legal in 47 other states. Only Florida, Illinois, and New York have total bans on open carry. GOA's Florida State Director, Luis Valdes, brought the debate on open carry to the forefront this week when he asked Governor DeSantis if he would support adding open carry to the current constitutional carry bill, to which the Governor confirmed he would. In the same statement, DeSantis expressed his doubt about the Republican Legislature legalizing open carry in the new bill, saying, "I don't think they're gonna do it." DeSantis may be correct. When asked about open carry being added to the current bill, sponsor Chuck Brannan apathetically stated that the bill "is what it is as filed," indicating that he has no intention of legalizing open carry. Senate President Kathleen Passidomo shared similar sentiments with Rep. Brannan. Thirty-six years after Janet Reno, as Miami-Dade County State Attorney, worked to pass a ban on open carry, Republicans are still working to defend this unconstitutional law. Now is the chance for Governor DeSantis to demand that the Republican Supermajority in Florida add open carry to the bill and finally remove Florida from the company of New York and Illinois on the issue of open carry. Gun Owners of America has been working diligently in Florida to not only pass Constitutional Carry, but get open carry added to the current bill. It's time to pressure Republican leadership, and we need your help! Please call the Florida Legislature at (850) 717-5019 & (850) 487-5028 and let them know you want open carry added to the bill.

We were loud and clear about how this legislation did nothing to end mass public murders and only infringed on gun owners' rights. We attempted to warn elected officials. Nevertheless, Congress rushed to sign gun rights away, including 15 Republican Senators who enabled the passage of the "Bipartisan Safer Communities Act." Well, President Biden just announced that he'll be using his "regulatory authority" to implement Universal Background Checks thanks to that bill. When we told the anti-gunners in Congress how this bill was poison and would just add fuel to the fire for President Biden to go beyond what was written, compromise-hungry swamp monsters didn't believe us. Well, we hate to say, "I told you so," but that's exactly what happened. The Biden Administration, by their own admission, is going around Congress to infringe on your rights. President Biden wants to use the expanded definition of "engaged in the business" to force you to file a background check for every single time you purchase a firearm. According to the White House, the President is directing the Attorney General to move the U.S. as close to universal background checks as possible without additional legislation by supposedly clarifying the statutory definition of who is "engaged in the business" of dealing in firearms, as updated by the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. It seems that Biden would rather harass law-abiding gun owners who sell as few as just one firearm per year than lock up the criminals who are responsible for gun violence. For those who are unfamiliar with this fight, President Obama attempted a similar executive order towards the end of his term in 2016. Obama attempted to expand the definition of gun "dealer" to: - Restrict private transfers of firearms under the guise of the so-called loopholes "online and at gun shows." - Prosecute those who sell even as many as one firearm unless they obtain a Federal Firearms License. - Punishing this otherwise lawful behavior with "up to five years in prison and fines up to $250,000." While Biden has just announced his executive order, we currently have no specifics on what that will entail. Obama's executive order gives us a look into the future of what this rulemaking could potentially look like. While the Biden administration may think this move is popular, the support for Universal Background Checks is fake. The fact is, most people who are polled in these anti-gun surveys don't fully understand what a Universal Background Check is, or that they're actually Universal Registration Checks. According to a survey of 1,000 people done by the Crime Prevention Research Center, 86% say they support background checks on all gun sales or transfers, but as soon as they're asked follow-up questions which explain how this would look as policy, support starts to drop. For example, when survey participants were asked a question with context on how the law would affect them, 44% now say they oppose Universal Background Checks, and only 42% say they support them. Universal Background Checks don't stop crime or criminals, instead they limit the ability of law-abiding citizens from being able to innocently transfer firearms to each other. The goal of President Biden's new backdoor universal background check scheme is to turn as many private citizens as possible who sell their guns into FFLs, restricting their ability to conduct private gun transfers without being recorded in the ATF's illegal national federal registry. Remember, the ATF already has a database of nearly one billion gun and gun owner records in their West Virginia facility. GOA will do everything in our power to defend your gun rights from this infringement. We'll lobby Congress, participate in any rulemaking, and challenge it in court when it is published and becomes possible.

Biden Unlawful... Repeatedly Rapes the US Constitution... https://www.theepochtimes.com/an-all-out-assault-on-the-second-amendment-gun... ‘An All-Out Assault on the Second Amendment’: Gun Rights Groups Respond to Biden’s New Executive Order New executive order will make criminals out of law-abiding gun owners, 2A advocates say Second Amendment advocates have responded to President Joe Biden’s newest executive order designed to advance his gun control agenda and his repeated call for a ban on so-called “assault weapons” and high-capacity magazines. “Crimes are committed by criminals. Until President Biden and his allies decide to go after violent criminals, violence will continue to spiral out of control as it has. The focus of our laws and efforts should be on the criminal element and not on law-abiding Americans,” a statement from the National Rifle Association reads. Biden’s order will require background checks on more than just retail firearms sales, promote the adoption and use of “Red Flag Laws,” make gun dealer inspection reports public, call for stricter enforcement of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, and request that the Federal Trade Commission issue a report on the marketing of firearms to children by gun makers. “The executive order ramps up our efforts to hold the gun industry accountable. It’s the only outfit you can’t sue these days,” Biden said while in California on March 14. ‘Most Anti-Gun President in US History’ Dudley Brown, president of the National Association for Gun Rights, issued a statement calling on Congress to stand against an unconstitutional attempt at gun registration. National Rifle Association members National Rifle Association members listen to speakers during the NRA’s 142 annual Meetings and Exhibits at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston on May 4, 2013. (Johnny Hanson/Houston Chronicle via AP, File) “This is an all-out assault on the Second Amendment, and we’re looking into every legislative and legal option to fight back against the most anti-gun president in U.S. history. What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ does Biden not understand?” Brown’s statement reads. Like the other organizations that responded, Brown said the order wouldn’t reduce crime. Instead, it will make law-abiding citizens criminals if they don’t comply with the government’s voluminous regulations, he wrote. “The reality is this executive order will do nothing to stop criminals from buying and selling firearms illegally, but it will entrap otherwise law-abiding Americans and put them on the bad side of the ATF. The unconstitutional NICS database should be abolished, not expanded,” Brown wrote. Epoch Times Photo Handguns in a store in Houston on Sept. 9, 2022. (Brandon Bell/Getty Images) Gun Owners of America wrote in a statement that it has been expecting such action from the president. The organization’s senior vice president, Erich Pratt, is quoted as saying that the current background check system fails 90 percent of the time. Pratt doesn’t believe expanding it will make things better. “Guns will continue to fall into the wrong hands as long as politicians and bureaucrats fail to acknowledge the real elephant in the room—violent criminals freely walking the streets,” Pratt wrote. Biden also declared his intention to continue pursuing a ban on certain types of rifles and magazines. He claimed that mass shootings tripled in the United States after the previous 10-year ban expired in 2004. “I’m determined once again to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines,” Biden said. The chairman of the Committee for the Citizens’ Right to Keep and Bear Arms, Alan Gottlieb, said Biden’s agenda has nothing to do with safety. Like the other gun rights advocates, Gottlieb believes that Biden’s plan will fail if it’s implemented. “The only people who will be any safer are the criminals who ignore gun-control laws already,” Gottlieb said.

Biden tries render everyone defenseless against tyrants... Even convicted felons have a god given human right to defend themselves... Biden DOJ Asks Supreme Court to Fast-Track Case That Could Reinstate Federal Gun Ban https://www.theepochtimes.com/biden-doj-asks-supreme-court-to-fast-track-cas... https://www.theepochtimes.com/appeals-court-finds-federal-gun-ban-on-domesti... The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is asking the Supreme Court to overturn an appeals court ruling that struck down a federal law preventing people under domestic violence-related restraining orders from having guns. The Biden administration asked in its new petition (pdf) for the high court to hear the case on a “highly expedited schedule” because of the “significant disruptive consequences” of the lower court’s ruling. The petition was reportedly filed with the court on March 17 but had not been docketed as of press time. The case comes as courts nationwide are playing catchup regarding the Supreme Court’s landmark June 2022 ruling in New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen that held firearms restrictions must be deeply rooted in American history if they are to survive constitutional scrutiny. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said on March 15 that the Bruen ruling offers little guidance to lower courts on interpreting the decision, as Courthouse News Service reported. “The gun lobby saw Bruen as a landmark win, but it is a significant challenge for police, law enforcement, and the population of America when it comes to public safety,” Durbin said. The case involves Zackey Rahimi of Texas, who pled guilty to violating a 1994 federal law –Section 922(g)(8) of Title 18 of the U.S. Code— that prohibits a person who is subject to a domestic-violence restraining order from possessing a firearm. Rahimi was involved in five shooting incidents after the restraining order was entered against him in February 2020. But when the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit took up Rahimi’s case earlier this year, it overturned the law, finding it was no longer constitutional according to the principles laid down in Bruen. The government failed “to demonstrate that § 922(g)(8)’s restriction of the Second Amendment right fits within our Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation,” the panel stated. The ban on the possession of firearms by someone under a domestic violence-related restraining order “is an outlier that our ancestors would never have accepted.” U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said last month the DOJ would appeal the ruling but did not provide a timeline for doing so. “Nearly 30 years ago, Congress determined that a person who is subject to a court order that restrains him or her from threatening an intimate partner or child cannot lawfully possess a firearm,” Garland said in a Feb. 2 statement. “Whether analyzed through the lens of Supreme Court precedent, or of the text, history, and tradition of the Second Amendment, that statute is constitutional. Accordingly, the Department will seek further review of the Fifth Circuit’s contrary decision.” In the new petition, U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar argues that the appeals court erred. “In concluding that Section 922(g)(8) lacks adequate historical support, the Fifth Circuit missed the forest for the trees. The court overlooked the strong historical evidence supporting the general principle that the government may disarm dangerous individuals,” the document states. The court also “analyzed each historical statute in isolation and dismissed each one on the ground that it differed from Section 922(g)(8) in some way.” The 5th Circuit’s “mode of analysis was flawed.” Courts interpreting the Second Amendment have to “consider text, history, and tradition, [but] they should not focus on whether the law at issue has ‘a historical twin,’” the petition states, quoting from the Bruen decision. “This Court’s review is warranted because the Fifth Circuit held an important federal statute unconstitutional on its face,” the petition states. The Epoch Times has reached out to the DOJ for comment on its new petition. The Epoch Times has also reached out to Rahimi’s attorneys at the Federal Public Defender’s offices in Fort Worth and Lubbock, Texas, for comment.

Report Reveals ATF Misappropriated $20 Million To Pay Bureaucrat Salaries https://twitter.com/GunOwners https://www.gunowners.org/ by Gun Owners of America A recent report from the U.S. Office of Special Counsel revealed that the ATF unlawfully paid agents more than $20 million in wrongful benefits using taxpayer funds. According to that report, ATF intentionally misclassified jobs as law enforcement positions and paid those employees benefits to which they were not entitled. The sum of the findings totaled about 20 million dollars over five years to 108 ATF employees. That's around 37 thousand dollars a year in salary and retirement benefits per employee. As detailed by the OSC's report, these actions were ATF leadership's standard operating procedure for many years. A quote from the report surmised that the actual cost could be much higher given that the unlawful job classifications had been common practice at ATF far longer than the five-year timeframe reviewed by investigators. It's interesting that this report was released about a week after the House Judiciary Committee hearing that ATF Director Steve Dettelbach testified at. 🚨BREAKING🚨@ATFHQ systemically committed financial crimes & used taxpayer dollars to pad the salaries of AT LEAST 108 bureaucrats. Meanwhile, @JoeBiden wants to INCREASE the agency's funding to over $1.9 BILLION.#DefundTheATF pic.twitter.com/K5IUmZkWyU — Gun Owners of America (@GunOwners) May 3, 2023 Still, Congress cannot turn a blind eye to ATF's corruption and this rogue agency must be held accountable. Additionally, the OSC stated in their press release that they have notified President Biden and Congress of their findings. Yet, the Biden Administration has done nothing to withdraw its proposed budget for fiscal year 2024. Instead, The Biden Administration would rather reward ATF for its financial crimes with a 13.6% increase over the 2023 budget—raising the operating budget to nearly $2 billion. DEFUND 👏 THE 👏 ATF 👏 https://t.co/5JghPBa03J — Gun Owners of America (@GunOwners) May 2, 2023 Meanwhile, law-abiding gun owners applying for their tax stamps continue to suffer extremely long paperwork delays on registration forms which should not even exist in the first place. When it comes to ATF finances, OPM's report states that: "ATF leadership had acted outside of the merit system principles and demonstrated disregard for the rule of law and regulations." The American people deserve transparency from these unelected agency bureaucrats at ATF. Another telling quote as to the extent of the issue can be found on page 4 of the report. It reads: "The whistleblowers expressed their views that the report did not adequately capture the extent of ATF's illegal practice of the full impact of the harm." This revelation only serves to highlight the double standards that exist between the treatment of gun dealers and the ATF itself. The fact is that the very agency that puts gun dealers out of business for a single infraction is itself bilking the taxpayers for millions of dollars illegally. We can only hope that more brave whistleblowers continue to bring these issues to the public's attention, and, hopefully, the attention of Congress as well. We'll hold the line for you in Washington. We are No Compromise. Join the Fight Now.

Biden's DOJ Illegally Bribing States To Pass Gun Confiscation Laws https://www.gunowners.org/ https://donate.gunowners.org/join/ Last summer, weak Republicans teamed up with Anti-Gun Democrats to pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. Part of that law included funding for 'red flag laws' nationwide. The reason for this is that the Anti-Gun lobby knows that a national red flag law is totally unconstitutional and would immediately be struck down by federal courts. So instead, they chose to bribe states with federal funds into passing their own 'red flag' laws at the state level, where challenges to the laws could get stuck in court proceedings for years to come. According to the letter penned by Senator Roger Marshall of Kentucky and Representative Alex Mooney from West Virginia, the Biden Department of Justice has weaponized Bipartisan Safer Communities Act to Illegally bribe states into passing red flag laws. In the letter, the lawmakers state that the Justice Department gave Federal funding to States that did not meet the criteria for due process. "The Department of Justice appears to have weaponized the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act to illegally fund ineligible red flag laws and bribe pro-gun states into passing gun confiscation laws." Interestingly, Minnesota passed a red flag law within 100 days of receiving $3.7 Million from this program. These Federal grants were supposed to only be given to states whose 'red flag' laws met "due process requirements," a term specifically set by one of the bill's Republican authors, Senator John Cornyn of Texas. When Gun Owners of America pointed out that this provision would be abused and ignored by the government, Republicans who supported the legislation accused GOA of lying. But now it seems that states that don't have red flag laws at all, -- such as West Virginia, Alaska, Kansas, and Arkansas – got millions of dollars towards implementing these sorts of laws in their respective states. This letter, -- along with Representative Lauren Boebert's Shall Not Be Infringed Act, which would repeal all the gun control passed by the 117th Congress -- are just a few of the battles that GOA is fighting for your 2A rights every day on Capitol Hill. Read the letter here: So, pick up the phone and call your Senators and Representative and demand to know what they're doing to hold the Biden administration accountable for this misuse of federal funds. We'll hold the line for you in Washington. We are No Compromise.

In a 7-4 vote, the 9th Circuit stayed a Sept. 22 ruling by US District Judge Robert Benitez in San Diego, who found that the state's ban violated gun owners' rights to keep and bear arms under the 2nd Amendment. Benitez cited a 2022 decision by the US Supreme Court in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, which requires that firearms restrictions be "consistent with this nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation." Following Benitez's decision, California AG Bob Bonta (D) moved to stay the decision, which the 9th Circuit's liberal majority quickly did. The Monday ruling applies to a long-running lawsuit brought by the California Rifle & Pistol Association as well as gun owners challenging the ban. "If a stay is denied, California will indisputably face an influx of large-capacity magazines like those used in mass shootings in California and elsewhere," wrote the 9th Circuit Democrat majority. The four Republican-appointed judges on the 9th Circuit dissented, including US Circuit Judge Patrick Bumatay, who said the majority's attitude towards the 2nd Amendment was "laughably absurd." In response to Monday's decision, Bonta's office said it was "relieved that the court considered the public safety of Californians in its decision." One can join the raging discussion over the decision over at Calguns.net.

US Appeals Court Blocks California From Banning Guns In Most Public Places Authored by Jack Phillips via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), A U.S. appeals court on Jan. 6 allowed a judge’s ruling that blocked California from enforcing a new gun-control law that bans the carrying of firearms in most public places on the grounds that it was unconstitutional. A California-legal AR-15 style rifle is displayed for sale at the Crossroads of the West Gun Show at the Orange County Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, Calif., on June 5, 2021. (Patrick T. Fallon/AFP via Getty Images) The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals dissolved an order by a different 9th Circuit panel from a week earlier that suspended an injunction issued by a judge who concluded that the Democrat-led state’s law violated the right of citizens to keep and bear arms under the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment. “The administrative stay previously entered is dissolved,” the court wrote in May v. Bonta. “The emergency motion under Circuit Rule 27-3 for a stay pending appeal and for an interim administrative stay is denied pending further order of the court.” Last week’s order temporarily stayed the injunction. It allowed the law to take effect on Jan. 1. Gun rights groups then asked the 9th Circuit to reconsider, and on Jan. 6, a different panel of judges dissolved the order, suspending the injunction. “So the politicians’ ploy to get around the Second Amendment has been stopped for now,” C.D. Michel, a lawyer for the gun rights groups, said in a statement. California’s appeal of the injunction will now be heard in April. The state’s attorney general, in court papers, had argued that “tens of millions of Californians will face a heightened risk of gun violence” if the law were blocked. The law was enacted after the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark ruling in June 2022 that expanded gun rights nationwide. The high court, in that case, struck down New York’s strict gun permit regime and declared for the first time that the right to keep and bear arms under the Second Amendment protects a person’s right to carry a handgun in public for self-defense, establishing a legal precedent for future cases. In December, U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney handed down a preliminary injunction against the gun law after he found that it would “unconstitutionally deprive” people with carry permits because they would not then have the “constitutional right to carry a handgun in public for self-defense.” The judge also said California, with the law, intentionally undermined and ignored the landmark 2022 Supreme Court ruling. “The law’s coverage is sweeping, repugnant to the Second Amendment, and openly defiant of the Supreme Court,” Judge Carney, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, wrote in his ruling. “The law designates twenty-six categories of places, such as hospitals, public transportation, places that sell liquor for on-site consumption, playgrounds, parks, casinos, stadiums, libraries, amusement parks, zoos, places of worship, and banks, as ‘sensitive places’ where concealed carry permitholders can’t carry their handguns. The law, known as SB2, would make “every public place in California into a ‘sensitive place,’ effectively abolishing the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding and exceptionally qualified citizens to be armed and to defend themselves in public,” he wrote. Kostas Moros, a lawyer for one of the plaintiffs in the case—the California Pistol and Rifle Association—told The Reload that the earlier appeals court ruling meant that the “right to carry in California was unconstitutionally eliminated for almost a week.” He hailed the court’s recent decision to block the law. “We are relieved the status quo has been restored, and Californians with CCW permits, who are among the most law-abiding people there are, can resume carrying as they have for years,” he said, referring to concealed carry weapon permits. In a statement to news outlets on Jan. 6 in response to the court order, a spokesperson for California Gov. Gavin Newsom said the move is “dangerous” and “puts the lives of Californians on the line,” adding, “We won’t stop working to defend our decades of progress on gun safety in our state.” The SB2 law was signed by Mr. Newsom, a Democrat, in September of last year. The 9th Circuit will hear arguments for the case in April. Responding to the decision, California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a Democrat, wrote on social media: “We’ve ensured California’s common-sense concealed carry weapons law—prohibiting concealed firearms in sensitive places like playgrounds and hospitals—takes effect tomorrow & while we appeal the lower court’s dangerous decision.”

If you haven't heard yet, Firearms Policy Coalition has filed what may be one of the most critical petitions for writ of certiorari for Marylanders and possibly gun owners in general in the case Bianchi v. Frosh.

The case itself centers around the Maryland "Assault Weapons Ban" (AWB), also known as SB281 or the Firearms Safety Act of 2013.

But before we dive into the law itself, let's look at the question being proposed to the Supreme Court in this writ of certiorari. The question presented is: "Whether the Constitution allows the government to prohibit law-abiding, responsible citizens from protecting themselves, their families, and their homes with a type of "Arms" that are in common use for lawful purposes?"

The way this question is asked, we can see that if decided in favor of gun owners, the overturning of the Maryland AWB would be an unprecedented victory for gun owners nationwide. A Repudiation of assault weapon bans would free states like California, Massachusetts, New York, and New Jersey from their tyrannical state governments who've imposed their versions of this "Assault Weapon Ban." FPC's Adam Kraut affirmed that position saying, "This case presents the Court with an ideal vehicle to both address the scope of protected arms and constitutionally infirm analysis applied by these recalcitrant lower courts."

The petition correctly describes the term "Assault Weapons" as a "pejorative and inaccurate label for a category of common semi-automatic firearms." Then quoting directly from Heller goes on to describe those same firearms as "in common use" and "typically possessed by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes."

Maryland's AWB is an assortment of inconsistent rules and regulations thought up by bureaucrats in Annapolis who have little understanding of firearms they seek to regulate. A few examples of inconsistencies: AK pattern rifle chambered in 7.62x39? Banned. AK pattern rifle chambered in 5.45x39? Good to go. AK Pistol in 7.62x39? Good to go. The only difference between the banned rifle and pistol? The stock.

It also bans the AR15 and other "Scary" looking rifles but allows AR15s that conform to a Heavy Barrel Profile, or HBAR. It also allows for rifles that are functionally identical to the AR15, like the Ruger Mini 14.

Ultimately, we won't know if the Supreme Court will hear the case until sometime in 2022, as The Supreme Court will hear it in their 2022 session. But the chances are good for the Court to take this case up. Many of the Justices have signaled that they're ready to hear 2nd Amendment cases. If the recent NYSRPA v. Bruen is any indication, we will likely see them tackle more gun rights issues that have far-reaching implications.

Also, the makeup of the Court has changed in recent years. With the addition of Amy Comey Barrett replacing Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the Court has a solid conservative majority. As lower court judges, Justice Barrett and Justice Kavanaugh signaled they think courts need to rethink the framework used to often measure how gun regulations are evaluated. This framework is known as "Intermediate Scrutiny."

When intermediate scrutiny is applied, a law has more of a chance to survive legal challenges because the government must prove only that it is "substantially related to an important government interest."

This intermediate scrutiny clause is what has kept not only the Maryland Assault Weapon ban in place but many other AWBs nationwide. If the Justices are looking for a case that has far-reaching consequences for the 2nd Amendment and the process by which states uphold these unconstitutional laws, they need look no further than Bianchi v. Frost.

This is why I posed the question: "Is this the beginning of the end for gun control?"

In our coverage of gun control issues over the past year, we've seen a clear pathway that the anti-gun lobby is taking. Using the NFA, 1968 GCA, FOPA, and other gun control laws on the books, they've managed to ban Bump Stocks and inch closer and closer to regulating semi-automatic firearms under the NFA or outright ban them. This Case, Bianchi v. Frost, would put a significant roadblock in front of that.

Summary of Democrat strategy... Stoke racial and other division, fuck up your own big cities, fund leftist antifa blm type groups, prominent democrats support and incite via the media to violent action, defund police, weaken laws, prosecute no one, lock everyone down from work and life, fire millions from their jobs, inject panic and stress and lies and hoaxes 24x7... watch the intentional chaos ensue and grow... then claim that guns are the problem, that Democrats are the Saviour, bleating across the nation to let them cancel the 2nd Amendment. Classic, textbook perfect, manufactured, false flag. Mayor Eric Adams Begs For Federal Help As NYC's Crime Problem Spirals Out Of Control With NYC's violent crime situation spiraling out of control just weeks after his inauguration, Mayor Eric Adams has decided to call for help from - who else? - his Democratic buddies in Washington. In an interview on Sunday, the mayor - who had spoken just a day earlier about a shooting that left one NYPD officer dead and two seriously wounded - declared that the federal government "must step in." Since taking NYC's top job, Adams has been confronted with a seemingly non-stop stream of high-profile violent crimes, including a subway-pusher who killed an Asian woman, unleashing a frenzy about security on the badly underfunded MTA. Speaking in an interview with ABC's "Good Morning America", Adams, a former police officer, said that local police departments aren't well equipped to disrupt gun trafficking organizations, and that this task would be better left up to the Feds. "The police department is doing their job taking thousands of guns off the streets, yet each time you take a gun off, there’s a constant flow of new guns coming here," Adams said. "And if we don’t coordinate to go after those gun dealers that are supplying large cities in America such as New York, we are losing the battle, and the federal government must step in and play a role in doing so." During an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union", Adams said that street cops can't seize guns fast enough given the constant stream of guns being supplied to NYC. "We have to stop the flow of guns. We are removing thousands of guns off our streets, and it appears for every gun we’ve removed from the street, five are coming in. That is unacceptable," he said on "CNN’s State of the Union." All of this follows an emotional speech from Hizzoner on Friday evening, where he lamented that "there are no gun manufacturers in New York Cit. We don't make guns here," but somehow, so many still find their way into the hands of criminals who reside in the Big Apple. “We need Washington to join us and act now to stop the flow of guns in New York City and cities like New York.” Lashawn McNeil, the 47-year-old man who allegedly shot the pair of NYPD cops Friday evening, used a Glock .45 with a high-capacity ammunition magazine that was stolen from Baltimore in 2017, the NYPD said. Adams wasn't the only New York Democrat to pledge a crackdown on gun trafficking and related crime. Gov. Kathy Hochul claimed in a statement this weekend that she had "tripled" funding to stop guns coming into the Empire State. She also said we need "Washington teaming up with locals teaming up with us" to get it done. Last night, a shot from an illegal gun took the life of a @NYPDnews officer. When I say we’re going to do everything we can to stop the scourge of illegal guns in our state, it’s not just talk. We are tripling funding for efforts to get these guns off the streets. pic.twitter.com/zXv0xbL4Em — Kathy Hochul (@GovKathyHochul) January 22, 2022 During his primary campaign for the Democratic nomination, Adams staked his political fortunes on his ability to assuage the city's worsening crime problem. So far, he's been off to a rough start. But immediately calling for help from Washington doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Maybe NYC can get AOC to raise a citizen's watch so Gracie Mansion doesn't have to be put in the awkward position - politically speaking - of raising spending on law enforcement after the 'defund the NYPD' movement of 2020 led to meaningful budgetary cutbacks.

Summary of Democrat strategy...

Another Democrat strategy, and Joe Biden's fave, is to violate the constitution, again, and again, and again... Ridiculous that Governments thinks they can force private citizens to purchase and consume private services and goods. Among other preposterous notions, such as that governments have the right to commit theft, robbery, and extortion upon you, when you have no such right to do that to them, or even any right to defend yourselves from them committing those crimes. San Jose To Disproportionately Punish Low-Income Gun Owners With Liability Insurance Requirement "Hold on, guys. Let me check the gun laws first. -- said No Criminal Ever." https://abc7.com/san-jose-gun-law-control-laws-sam-liccardo/11508623/ https://www.mercurynews.com/2021/06/16/big-brother-san-jose-mandates-video-t...

From their ivory towers (and returning to their low-crime neighborhoods) the San Jose, California City Council has decreed that gun owners will soon be required to carry liability insurance and pay a fee if they want to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights.

The new requirements - the first of their kind in the United States - disproportionately punishes low-income residents who wish to defend themselves against criminals who will ignore the new financial burden. It’s the illegal gun ownership that needs restrictions. Don’t punish legal gun owners. — Septimber😷 (@Septimbersells) January 26, 2022 It's unclear when exactly the plan will go into effect, according to ABC7. Fighting the law is the Firearm Policy Coalition, which called it "burdensome, unconstitutional, and prohibited by California law" to law-abiding citizens who own firearms. "Since San Jose's recalcitrant City Council members don't believe that the United States Constitution applies to them or their citizens, Firearms Policy Coalition and our members are now committed to fight the City's outrageous and offensive policies in federal litigation and take every possible action to block their enforcement," said the group. The move follows June 2021 legislation requiring the video taping of all legal gun purchases. San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said at a Monday press conference that "San Jose has an opportunity to become a model for the rest of the nation to invest in proven strategies to reduce gun violence, domestic violence and suicide and the many other preventable harms from firearms in our communities." Having liability insurance would encourage people in the 5,500 households in San Jose who legally own at least one registered gun to have gun safes, install trigger locks and take gun safety classes, Liccardo said. The liability insurance will cover losses or damages resulting from any negligent or accidental use of the firearm, including death, injury, or property damage, according to the ordinance. If a gun is stolen or lost, the owner of the firearm would be considered liable until the theft or loss is reported to authorities. -ABC7 The law won't apply to current or retired law enforcement officers, those with a license to carry, or anyone who simply ignores it.

National Concealed Carry? It Might Be Sooner Than You Think https://themachinegunnest.com/national-concealed-carry-might-be-sooner-than-... https://www.nraila.org/articles/20171120/victory-in-dc-shall-issue-concealed... If you're unaware of the most recent 2nd amendment case in the supreme court, let me give you a quick refresher. NYSRPA v. Bruen deals with the "may-issue" scheme plaguing liberal states. Essentially the government decides whether you can carry a firearm based on specific criteria or an atypical need from the general population. Suspiciously missing from this criteria is "self-defense." Maryland has a scheme very similar to New York's. The Machine Gun Nest is a Maryland-based company, and I grew up in Maryland. I recently received my concealed carry permit from Maryland State Police after submitting to an intensive background check which required me to prove (with tax forms, bank account statements, and more) that I was indeed a business owner. If I had merely said that I was a humble tax-paying, law-abiding citizen who was concerned about their safety on my evening walks through Baltimore city, I would have denied that permit. See the issue here? Well, so does the Supreme Court. Oral Arguments for NYSRPA v. Bruen took place on Nov. 3rd, and afterward, it seemed like the majority of Justices were staunchly on the 2nd amendment side. We'll have to wait until summer 2022 to get the verdict, but it appears that the State of New York has seen the future and has already started crafting legislation to render a concealed carry permit useless. New York Bill A08684 is an apparent reaction to the almost certainty that the Supreme Court will rule New York's permitting scheme as unconstitutional. The bill itself states that no firearms can be possessed anywhere on "public" transportation (including rideshares, trains, and taxis), in restaurants, or anywhere where 15 or more people are gathered. While this bill may be depressing to read for the New Yorkers who are desperate for the ability to defend themselves, the evidence is clear that even the Government of New York seems to be confident that they're going to lose NYSRPA v. Bruen. What does this mean for the rest of the country? Well, it means the end of "may-issue" schemes, which means that all 50 states would switch to a shall-issue system. We saw a similar occurrence in 2017 when Washington DC lost in DC Circuit Court for the case Wrenn v. District of Columbia. If you want to carry a firearm in DC and complete the required training, you are guaranteed to receive a permit to carry a gun. Interestingly enough, DC Government did not appeal the case to the Supreme Court probably because they didn't want an NYSRPA v. Bruen situation on their hands. The firearms industry certainly is preparing for an explosion of concealed carry. We were at SHOT Show in Las Vegas and heard much talk about the case, especially from dealers and firearms instructors in more liberal states. In addition, many new products for 2022 are personal protection and carry focused, like Federal's new 30 Super Carry, S&W's new CSX handgun, and many more. So, what should we expect? Later this year, when the court announces their verdict, they also may decide to clear up a big problem in gun law right now. There's only been a handful of 2nd Amendment cases that the Supreme Court has ruled on. Because of this, 2nd Amendment law isn't exactly crystal clear to some courts. (How you could misinterpret "shall not be infringed is beyond me) The result of this uncertainty is that lower courts like the liberal-leaning 9th Circuit essentially rubber stamp unconstitutional gun control like assault weapon bans and more because the Supreme Court hasn't explicitly ruled on one way or another on an issue. NYSRPA v. Bruen may serve as an excellent opportunity for the Supreme Court to clear up some bad lower court rulings. At the very least, here in Maryland, we're expecting an explosion in concealed carry permits. To give you an example of the disparity between a free state and a liberal state, Maryland and Indiana have similar populations. Still, the percentage of residents with carrying permits in Maryland is 0.4%, while Indiana is 18%. That's a significant disparity, and this disparity has likely grown larger as the statistics on carry permits were last recorded in 2017. 2020 & 2021 saw a considerable rise in concealed carry permit applications at the rate of 10.5% growth in permit applications year over year. Needless to say. We're excited to be delivering some good news when it comes to gun law, but only time will tell what the Supreme Court has to say for NYSRPA v. Bruen. But if there's any indication of victory, it's when the blue state governments start to panic. That's clear from the pending legislation in New York. So, we're predicting a victory for the 2nd Amendment. The only thing yet to be shown is how far that victory will go.

It seems the fallout from the insanity of 2020 continues to stay in the public's mind. Even a year out from the panic buying craziness, riots, movement to defund the police, and the election of Joe Biden, Americans seem to have a new take on gun control. According to a new poll, 63% of Americans support enforcing current gun laws instead of passing new gun control into law. This change shouldn't be surprising for anyone who's lived through the past two years. With 2020 & 2021 bringing COVID, Lockdowns, panic buying, the massive BLM riots, and the movement to defund the police, it's no surprise that Americans are starting to oppose new gun control in more significant numbers. A statistic that has helped shape that polling data is that millions of Americans became first-time gun owners during the pandemic. I experienced this rush of new gun buyers at The Machine Gun Nest, where we became completely inundated with first-time gun buyers. Many of those buyers had no idea that firearms required a background check (and a wait time here in Maryland). This process was a rude awakening for many of these same first-time buyers that everything they had learned about firearms being "easier to buy than books" was all just corporate media lies. What's even more interesting is that the data changes come primarily from non-traditional gun owners, people who identify as political independents, and even Democrats. Recently there was a 15 point drop in support for strict gun control laws from independents, according to Gallup. Considering that 50% of all new gun owners in the past two years are women, and many more are minorities, it makes sense that attitudes are shifting. It's a drastic change compared to pre-pandemic thinking. Just a few years ago, in 2018, after the mass shooting in Parkland, FL, support for gun control was at its highest point, with 66% of the country supporting new gun control legislation. We also know that activist district attorneys like those in Philadelphia and other liberal cities often refuse to charge or prosecute criminals on firearms charges, leading to higher rates of violence in those same cities. In Philadelphia, out of 1,810 firearms cases in 2021 (that's more than 4 per day), 61.5% of cases were dismissed or withdrawn. Only 2.6% of those same cases (that's 47 total) were found guilty at trial. We at The Machine Gun Nest can speak from experience being in Maryland. Baltimore City is an example of these failed policies. It's no wonder with the failure even to prosecute violent criminals with gun crimes that Maryland residents are desperate to buy and carry firearms. It's also no wonder that the people of the United States, especially in these liberal jurisdictions, want the law enforced! Another significant movement creating conversation and awareness that may have contributed to this new poll is the number of counties that have become 2nd Amendment Sanctuaries. The 2nd Amendment Sanctuary movement first gained attention when, in early 2020, the Governor of Virginia moved to pass an "Assault Weapons Ban," among other gun control measures. This gun control push triggered a massive response from the citizenry of VA (one of the most armed states per capita in the country). It caused many of Virginia's counties to become 2nd Amendment Sanctuaries, where the local government refuses to enforce gun control laws. This idea became so popular that 62.5% of counties in the United States are now 2nd Amendment Sanctuaries. So why does all this matter? Well, the country's mood has shifted when it comes to firearms. This cultural change is reflected in government, where Democrats don't want to pursue gun control legislation whatsoever! A few days ago, Joe Biden marked the fourth anniversary of the mass shooting in Parkland, FL, by calling on Congress to pass new gun control legislation. But Democrats don't seem to be interested, as reported by The Hill – Democrats don't seem to feel that there's enough support for new gun control to push the legislation! Gun owners can take solace in the fact that, at least in Congress, the gun control agenda has stalled. This stalemate is, of course, why the Biden administration has been pushing gun control via executive fiat, using the ATF to circumvent the legislative process altogether. With hotly contested midterms and Presidential approval ratings plummeting, the Biden Administration will be looking for any scapegoat to rally their base back to vote. We've seen it recently with Biden trying to "rally around the flag" with the situation in Ukraine, and we know that gun control is food for the base so to speak. I'd expect Biden to announce that he's "solved the ghost gun issue" this spring when the ATF releases their new unconstitutional rules on frames and receivers. The flip side of the gun control agenda stalling at the Federal level is that States will then take the issue into their own hands. We currently see some of the most egregious local gun control pushes yet, with San Jose, CA, requiring that gun owners purchase liability insurance for their firearms and pay a fee, which will be donated to an anti-gun group! Meanwhile, in Boulder, Colorado, local legislators have entirely thrown out State Preemption to pass a city-level assault weapons ban, literally balkanizing the State of Colorado legally in the process. With the verdict for NYSRPA v Bruen on the horizon and many more legal battles ahead, 2022 will be a very interesting year for gun rights.
