Another one of the idiotic “I support the Second Amendment, But……”  crowd
There’s a very quick and simple answer for morons like this.
One name, Jack Wilson , end of discussion.
If they continue with their drivel, you tell them since facts have shown them to be in error, what’s the real reason they want to restrict the right to keep and bear arms?

Human Condition: Guns in church? What would Jesus carry?

I like guns — always have. I support the Second Amendment, and hope I’ll always have the right to own a gun.

But I’m concerned that our country is reverting to its Wild West days. Heck, even back then some towns had rules in place where you had to surrender your gun at the sheriff’s office before you went into the saloon.

According to Smithsonian magazine, Tombstone, Arizona, had more restrictive gun laws in 1880 than it has today. And that was when Wyatt Earp and his brothers were involved in the famed OK Corral incident.

So, I guess it’s kind of an insult to the Old West to compare them to present-day America.

All this makes me wonder about folks who want to carry guns to church. To church?

Biden’s handlers let him out to play for about 10 minutes today, and I bet they regret it.

 

Almost Half the United States has Constitutional Carry

Do we see ‘blood running in the streets’ of these states?

No, we don’t.

So these mewling statist elitists are nothing more than wanna-be dictators who see power being taken away from the state and returned to the people, and don’t like it.

Don’t mess with Tennessee’s handgun permit system | Opinion
Public welfare and safety will be jeopardized by pending legislation that would allow the permitless carry of handguns in public.

David Mitchell, Bill Gibbons and David Purkey Guest columnists
David Mitchell served as commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security from 2007-2011. Bill Gibbons served in that capacity from 2011-2016, and David Purkey served from 2016-2019.

Part of the privilege of serving as commissioner was responsibility for overseeing our state’s handgun permit system. We are proud of the permit system Tennessee has developed and maintained. We oppose the part of pending legislation (SB 765/HB 786) that would severely undermine our handgun permit system and ultimately make it meaningless by allowing the permitless carry of handguns in public, both concealed and openly.

Under the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the citizens of our state have a right to keep and bear arms. However, the U.S. Supreme Court has clearly ruled that state legislatures have the power to regulate the carrying of firearms in the interest of public safety. There is no reasonable debate about the General Assembly’s authority on this issue….

“Under the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the citizens of our state have a right to keep and bear arms. However,….”

But me no buts, tin horns. What about “….shall not be infringed.” do you not understand? Agreeing with Justice Scalia’s dicta (not part of the ruling, simply his own opinion, included in the decision like an editorial.) simply means you don’t understand SCOTUS decisions and merely agree with his mistaken personal opinion, which has been often considered, was some  weasel wording to get the previous court squish, Justice Kennedy on board.

The California Model: Soft On Violent Firearm Crimes, Hard On Law-Abiding Gun Owners

A frustrating aspect of the modern gun control movement is its seeming abandonment of reason. The same anti-gun politicians that attack the rights of law-abiding gun owners will advocate for more lenient treatment of those who misuse firearms to commit violent crime.

Consider California’s Assembly Bill 1509, which would alter the state’s scheme of sentence enhancements for serious crimes committed with firearms. The legislative counsel’s digest summarized the changes as follows:
Existing law imposes a sentence enhancement in the state prison of 10 years for personally using a firearm in the commission of specified felonies, 20 years for personally and intentionally discharging a firearm in the commission of those felonies, and 25 years to life for personally and intentionally discharging a firearm and causing great bodily injury or death to any other person during the commission of those felonies.

This bill would reduce those enhancements to 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. 

Existing law imposes a sentence enhancement of 5, 6, or 10 years in the state prison for, with intent to inflict great bodily injury or death, discharging a firearm from a motor vehicle in the commission of a felony and inflicting great bodily injury or death in the commission of a felony.

This bill would reduce that enhancement to 1, 2, or 3 years in the state prison.

AB1509 was authored by Assembly member Alex Lee (D-25). The bill was coauthored by Assembly members Wendy Carrillo (D-51), Ash Kalra (D-27), Mark Stone (D-29), and Senator Scott Wiener (D-11).

Assemblywoman Carrillo has been a vocal proponent of further restricting the rights of law-abiding gun owners. On May 17, 2018, Carrillo spoke at a gun control rally in Sacramento, put on, in part, by the Brady Campaign. The lawmaker took to Twitter on February 5, 2019 to boast of meeting Gabrielle Giffords of the eponymous Giffords gun control organization, adding, “California has enacted strict gun laws that can lead the way to a national conversation. We need action. #GunReformNow.”

Similarly, Assemblymember Kalra has pushed for gun control. As a San Jose City councilmember, Kalra proposed an ordinance that would have required gun owners to comply with onerous storage requirements, ammunition sellers to register transactions, and re-victimized gun owners whose firearms were stolen by requiring them to report the theft within 48 hours.

In 2019, Senator Wiener advanced legislation to permanently ban gun shows at Daly City, Calif.’s Cow Palace. On August 31, 2019, the state senator took to Twitter to advocate for gun confiscation and other extreme gun controls, stating,

No more talk on guns

Action only

“I’m happy to take questions if that’s what I’m supposed to do, Nance. Whatever you want me to do.”

Spoken like a real take charge POTUS, right before someone else made the actual decision; To not allow him the opportunity to open wide and insert his foot, again.

EBAY BANNING SALES OF NOW-FORBIDDEN DR. SEUSS BOOKS.

Online retailer eBay is removing several Dr. Seuss books from its website that are no longer being published.

A spokeswoman for the website told the Washington Examiner on Thursday that it would no longer be allowing sellers to list six books that have been deemed by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, the company that preserves Theodor Seuss “Ted” Geisel’s legacy, as containing racially insensitive imagery.

“At eBay, we have a strict policy against hate and discrimination to ensure our platform remains a safe, trusted and inclusive environment for our global community of buyers and sellers,” eBay Corporate Communications Specialist Parmita Choudhury said. “We’re currently sweeping our marketplace to remove these items. It can take some time to review all existing listings and provide education to impacted users. We’re also monitoring the newly published list to be reviewed.”

Choudhury also directed the Washington Examiner to refer to the company’s offensive material policy.

At a speech in Houston last week, meanwhile, the president stumbled through a series of mistakenly pronounced names, referring to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee as “Shirley” and referring to Rep. Lizzie Pannill Fletcher as “Lizzie Pannilli.

“What am I doing here?” the president said at one point. “I’m going to lose track here.”

But no mean tweets, so there’s that.

White House curbs press, public access as Biden struggles with public demands of job.
Visitor logs withheld, tours canceled, petitioning system taken down.

Throughout his presidential campaign and continuing since taking the White House, Joe Biden has promised a transparent approach to press and public relations. Yet in recent weeks, his administration has closed off — at least for now — several key avenues via which the press and public have for years gained a modicum of transparency, accessibility and accountability from the White House.

These moves to curb press and public access come as President Joe Biden himself has at times appeared to be struggling with the public demands of his job.

Biden’s Gun Control Isn’t Intended to Fight Crime, It’s Intended to Criminalize Gun Owners.

The Biden administration is not trying to address an issue or fix a symptom. It is targeting a phantasm. The president has yet to address fully how to combat the larger issue of illegally acquired firearms used to commit offenses.

Based on the 2016 Survey of Prison Inmates, the Justice Department reported in 2019 that “among prisoners who possessed a gun during their offense, 90% did not obtain it from a retail source.” Read that again. Among those individuals arrested, convicted, and sentenced, 90% of the firearms used in gun-related crimes did not come from legal sources, which include gun shows.

Astoundingly, only 0.8% of prisoners who had a firearm during their offense legally “obtained it at a gun show.” So, less than 1% of all firearms used in gun-related offenses came from gun shows. This is fascinating, seeing that the current administration and congressional majority would have us believe the “gun show loophole” is one area where the plague of gun violence is spawning from and it is just “common sense” to address it. But yet again, the facts show this is an illusion.

What is not an illusion is this: If the Biden administration successfully shoves firearm regulation through Congress or enables it through executive action, Biden will be solely responsible for criminalizing the estimated 72 million people who legally own firearms, as if our prison and legal system weren’t overburdened enough. So much for common sense.

Wait, what? Didn’t SloJoe say to ‘follow the science’?

Biden calls Texas decision to reopen ‘Neanderthal thinking’

President Joe Biden on Wednesday called Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s decision to end his state’s mask mandate “Neanderthal thinking,” echoing frustration from top COVID-19 response officials in his administration that case numbers are not low enough to relax restrictions before more Americans are vaccinated.

Majority of House Democrats vote in favor of lowering voting age to 16

Progressive Democrats in the House of Representatives unsuccessfully pushed an amendment lowering the federal voting age to 16 as part of the H.R. 1 voting rights package on Wednesday.

The vote was 125-302 in the House with the majority of Democrats voting in favor, 125-93, according to C-SPAN.

“A sixteen-year-old in 2021 possesses a wisdom and a maturity that comes from 2021 challenges, 2021 hardships, and 2021 threats,” Rep. Ayanna Pressley, one of the members of Congress behind the amendment, said in a statement on Monday. “Now is the time for us to demonstrate the courage that matches the challenges of the modern-day sixteen- and seventeen-year-old.”

Pressley, Rep. Grace Meng, D-N.Y., and Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., reintroduced the amendment on Monday.

Pressley said in February she was “shocked” that lowering the legal voting age to 16 is a “polarizing” subject of debate.

Anti-Gun Activists Salivating Over NJ’s Investigation Of Smith & Wesson

We’ve previously discussed the fishing expedition currently underway by New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal against American gunmaker Smith & Wesson, in which the AG is trying to get his hands on decades’ worth of internal marketing documents. Grewal hasn’t officially accused the company of any wrongdoing; rather, he wants to peruse those documents in the hopes of finding something that he can portray as a violation of the state’s laws against fraudulent advertising.

It’s a gross abuse of power, so of course gun control advocates love the idea. The New York Times’ Aaron Ross Sorkin has even penned a love letter of sorts to Grewal, expressing his full support for the witch hunt.

Late Night Laughs at Cancel Culture Crushing Dr. Seuss, the Muppets
Colbert and Meyers can’t see the dangers tied to erasing our cultural institutions

It goes without saying that today’s late night comics won’t mock the new Biden administration.

They’ve made it crystal clear their shows are progressive propaganda first and foremost. Speaking “truth to power” comes in a distant second. Some nights it ranks dead last.

When you wait nearly a year to call out a corrupt governor, that’s all the proof you need.

These comedians still could, in theory, pay attention to the culture wars attacking beloved institutions. Take Disney+ inexplicably slapping warning labels on classic episodes of “The Muppets.” Just this week the Dr. Seuss estate decided to stop publishing six of the author’s works because a very select few believe they contain racist imagery.

That’s despite Dr. Seuss’s own stepdaughter swearing he didn’t have a racist bone in his body.

Enter Stephen Colbert.

The far-left “Late Show” host chortled about the Dr. Seuss cancellation, ignoring the decades of joy his books have given children across the globe.

Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.

Below The Radar – LEAD Act

Attacks on our right to keep and bear arms don’t just take the form of gun bans or universal background checks. If anything, anti-Second Amendment extremists have always been scheming to find ways to make it harder to exercise our rights, and some of them are quite diabolical in the way many Second Amendment supporters do not see them coming.

One such bill is HR 405, the LEAD Act, introduced by Ted Lieu, a congressman from California (no surprise, a Democrat). In this case LEAD stands for Lead Endangers Animals Daily, and it bans the use of traditional ammunition on lands that the United States Fish and Wildlife Service has jurisdiction over. For a first offense, there is a $500 fine, with additional offenses leading to fines from $1,000 to $5,000.
