Sanctuary cities

For gun owners. I like it. I live in a sanctuary state.

Gun control

Supposed universal background checks passed the house. It had 8 republican votes. Here’s who they are.

Knife control

The Portland police are no longer allowed to carry exposed knives because someone got shot for grabbing one.

Even for bump stocks?

Trump will veto gun control bills. Good. But the bump stock thing though.

Meanwhile, Here Is What’s Wrong With the Gun Control Bills the House Is About to Pass

Bump stock stuff

A judge has ruled the administration can go forward with it.

Good

The Second Amendment Foundation:

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed suit in federal district court seeking to have federal and state laws preventing persons who, at one time in their lives, were subject to a mental health hold on the exercise of their Second Amendment rights overturned on the grounds that the way those laws and regulations are enforced are in violation of the Constitution.

Not keen on smart guns

Ruger issued its stock-holder mandated report on gun safety.

Only an idiot would believe that in the first place

No, the NRA Is Not Urging Its Members to Assassinate Gun Control Supporters

Dems push for gun control

190 co sponsors and not one republican.

Why are anti-gun activists so violent?

Enforce the gun laws or I’ll shoot you.

Meanwhile, over at TriggerFinger:

But it seems to me that the better formulation is “Why are violent people gun control activists?”

I suspect the reason, deep down, is that they think you are just as violent and unable to make moral choices as they are.

Of course.

How reliable is a Hi Point?

Well, this certainly should surprise the internet.

I didn’t know the Glock 46 was a thing.

Record Number of Americans Call Government Our Biggest Problem

Little reason not to

Why you should carry a big gun. Obviously, it depends on your style of dress and other factors but I carry a full-sized with ALL THE BULLETS every day.

Over at Volokh:

Supreme Court Rules that Excessive Fines Clause Applies to States and Constrains Civil Asset Forfeiture
The decision in Timbs v. Indiana is a significant step forward for property rights and civil liberties, though a key issue remains to be resolved by lower courts.

Big Truck

I drive a big ass truck. Because I have to. This one, actually. It’s for work. I’ve never understood the appeal of big trucks unless you have to have one for a specific reason. And guys and gals who take their big ass trucks and make them bigger and asser make no sense to me. But it’s a free country (haha). They’re not particularly pleasant to ride in because they are loud, bumpy, and big ass. Not a lot of parking lots (I’m looking at you Chick Fil A) have spaces that are conducive to big ass trucks. Especially if you have 16 inches of heavy duty tow ball hitch hanging the back. I’m taking up 1.25 parking spaces generally.

I haul around 100 diesel tank, tools, and, regularly enough, the occasional piece of heavy equipment. If they had a small car that could haul such things, I’d be in. A few things about big ass trucks:

They don’t come to a stop as well as your car. So avoid pulling out in front of them, especially if they’re hauling a 9,000 pound machine on a 2,000 pound trailer.

When you see a big ass truck coming the opposite direction, get over to your right. I’ve had at least three dumbdicks take out my mirrors while I’m as far over the right as I can get and they’re hugging the yellow line.

We back into a lot of parking spaces because it’s easier to get out.

If you’re riding our tails too close, we can’t see you.

I say all of this because this song came on the radio today and for no other real reason:

The state of gun control

Sebastian isn’t that hopeful. I would also offer that the trend away from actual grassroots websites with SEO driven firearms content and social media is a factor. And with social media, they increasingly can manipulate the message.

Of course

Dems Oppose Bill Alerting ICE To Illegal Immigrants Trying To Buy Guns

Bump stock ban struck down

In Cincinnati. Seems the state’s preemption law is why.

No idea what it is.

True

Background checks stop nothing. Spread that one far and wide. It’s good.

We should

Remember LA county asking contractors about ties to the NRA? Sebastian thinks we should file a civil rights lawsuit against them.

Impressive

Guy Sagi:

SIG Sauers M18, the compact variant of the U.S. Armys M17 duty sidearm, successfully completed a recent Lot Acceptance Test in which 12,000 roundsmore than double the historical highwater mark of 5,000were run through three different guns with zero stoppages. The required Material Reliability Testing deems up to 12 stoppages within its acceptable limits.
