Five out-of-state donors providing most of the cash in support of OR gun control measure :: 11/06/2022
A few days ago I wrote about the $750,000 check that Seattle socialite Connie Ballmer cut to supporters of Oregon’s Ballot Measure 114, noting that the single donation made up a health portion of the more than $2-million that the Safe Schools, Safe Communities PAC has brought in from donors. As it turns out, Ballmer and just a handful of other deep pocketed donors are responsible for the vast majority of money raised. Far from being a grassroots effort to impose a host of new restrictions on legal gun owners, this is an Astroturf campaign that’s been largely funded by out-of-state gun control activists.

Nothing better illustrates the importance of elections and the language of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v.

Guilty as charged: California sheriff convicted in concealed carry corruption case :: 11/04/2022
The now-former sheriff of Santa Clara County was convicted on six counts of corruption and willful misconduct by a jury on Thursday, bring a formal end to Laurie Smith’s decades-long tenure as the top cop in the California county. Under the verdict delivered by the jury in the civil trial Smith was removed from office, despite her attempt to avoid punishment by announcing her resignation during jury deliberations. Smith’s attorney argued that her resignation made the potential removal from office a moot point, but the judge overseeing the case refused her attorney’s request to drop the charges, declaring that to do so would allow Smith to escape any formal consequences for her actions.
A red wave could wipe out a gun control law from the Jim Crow era :: 11/03/2022
State legislative races don’t receive nearly as much attention as their federal counterparts do, but as Second Amendment advocates know all too well there’s generally far more activity in statehouses than Congress when it comes to gun control and pro-2A bills, and those of us who support the right to keep and bear arms can’t ignore the importance of these seats in next week’s midterms. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, for instance, has pledged to get behind a push for permitless carry, but he’s going to need the help of Florida legislators to get the bill across the finish line (a permitless carry bill introduced last year didn’t even receive a committee hearing).

Obama-appointed judge takes issue with Bruen decision :: 11/02/2022
U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves, who was appointed to the bench by then-President Barack Obama back in 2010, is using a case involving a convicted felon caught with a gun to complain about the Supreme Court’s decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, arguing that the Court’s decision has left him wondering if he needs to appoint an historian to help him determine the legality of the federal prohibition on felons owning firearms.

These days, President Joe Biden seems confused when it comes to just about everything.

Biden’s latest comments on gun legislation suggest that the president lacks even a rudimentary understanding of how firearms operate.
