The Public Land Credit Scam

“At first, all they wanted to do was repeal the $200 tax on the suppressors, but they still wanted to leave it in the NFA, which means the registration and all that goes along with that; the waiting periods, etc.” Pratt explained. “We said, ‘No, no, no.’ We just melted their phone lines. I mean, so much so we had reports they were turning off the phones in the House of Representatives.”
Well, that’s not the way I remember it. I remember you talking about this being a “win” for future suppressor owners. Either way, you didn’t succeed. You should have told Cornyn that you would lobby against his reelection to the senate if he went down this path.
Speaking of Cornyn, how come the fine folks in Texas haven’t run him out of office yet? After all, he appears to care more about the Muslims than anyone else in his supposed constituency. Let’s see if there are enough Muslims in Texas to elect him.
🚨BETRAYAL🚨Texas Senator John Cornyn has praised Islam and said “Ramadan Mubarak.” Cornyn last year said “Inshallah” at the TX GOP Convention, meaning “If Allah Wills.” Is this why Cornyn has NOT Condemned the Texas SHARIA LAW City that's being built?!

I’m so thankful that my moral predilections don’t include defending the right of people like this to be here.

NEWAYGO COUNTY, MI – A couple deer hunting in a blind on private property are suing after a conservation officer interrupted their firearms opener.
They contend that the state Department of Natural Resources officer had no legal justification to enter their property, from adjacent private land, to check their hunting licenses – and potentially scared off deer in the process.
They said the conservation officer, Cameron Wright, trespassed on their property.
In general I understand the value of wildlife biologists monitoring herd size and setting tag limits in light of irresponsible hunters. There are a lot of irresponsible hunters out there.
But as I’ve stated before, the price for this value added is way too high. The open fields doctrine is clearly trespassing and we will follow this as best as I’m able to see how it ends up. A number of states have already passed laws against the open fields doctrine.
By the way, you have the SCOTUS to thank for the open fields doctrine. That was over untaxed liquor anyway, and you know, you have to give the king his cut of the price.
Republicans are feeling spooked by recent special elections losses and underperformances in party strongholds, as the White House ramps up President Trump’s presence on the campaign trail ahead of next year’s midterm elections.
Hahahaha …
As it turns out maybe Cornyn and Thune shouldn’t have presumed on gun owners (and should have given us SBRs and suppressors), all Epstein files and associated banking records should have been made public, the senate should have killed the 60-vote majority requirement to get anything done, and killed Obamacare, waste, fraud, and largesse to crooks across the world. Then maybe voters would have something to support instead of another shade of vanilla.
As it turns out, we don’t forget the past like you thought we did.
Oh well, hard lessons, huh?
Chinese entities have been acquiring land in key locations near U.S. military bases, sparking national security concerns about possible spying — or even a potential attack.
Former national security official David Feith laid out the potential risk in an interview with 60 Minutes. Feith worked on U.S.-China policy for the State Department in the first Trump administration, and until April, worked in Trump’s second administration on the National Security Council. While there, he grew increasingly alarmed by where China owns America’s farmland.
“The ability to own large tracts of land, especially close to sensitive U.S. military and government facilities, can pose an enormous problem given the nature of technology today, which is that hostile actor from all across the world can very easily exploit access to land, access to buildings and warehouses, access just to a shipping container or two and do enormous damage, either in intelligence terms or in military terms,” Feith told 60 Minutes.
Only a society that is sick unto death and desires its own destruction would give away the farm to its declared enemy.
That’s American politicians and bureaucrats for you. Sick unto death, desiring the destruction of America.
There are a whole lot of unanswered questions. The reason for this is obvious: something foul is afoot. I don’t claim to know who took the shot, or from what angle, or with what caliber weapon, or for what reason.
But here are the things I know with an extremely high degree of certainty. Charlie Kirk was not shot with a 30-06 rifle. His head would have been decapitated from his body if he had been. If you follow my X account you would know I have said this from the beginning. My belief hasn’t changed. The deer you’re getting ready to shoot this fall wouldn’t survive your high powered rifle shots (30-06, 300 Win Mag, 7mm Rem Mag, 7mm PRC) if they were wearing AR500 armor plates.
Here is something else I know with a high degree of certainty. That kid whom they blamed didn’t take down a rifle, stow parts of it in a backpack (that by the way wouldn’t be able to fully enclose the parts anyway), reconfigure it on any building, change his clothes, take a shot, disassemble the rifle again and stow it in a backpack, and drop in anywhere.
Here is something I know with probable certainty (by that I mean more probable than not). That kid they’re blaming didn’t take the kill shot. He may have played a role in some part of the events of that day, up to and including being a scapegoat or patsy, but he didn’t kill Charlie Kirk. I also know with probably certainty that there is no medium in the body in the vicinity in which he was shot that would cause a deflection away from a close exit.
Someone else did. I have absolutely no confidence whatsoever that we will ever know the truth. But if I were on a jury, with the current narrative (the kid shot Charlie with a 30-06 round and the bullet didn’t leave the body, i.e., there was no exit wound, rather, the bullet stopped just under his skin), I would never convict him. It’s sinful to convict men of crimes because you don’t like them.
This is the single best takedown of anything I have ever heard.

It really does boggle the imagination how the senate and house can be so stolid, unresponsive, stupid, and lazy. They should have removed suppressors from the NFA long ago.
As for that matter, where is OSHA in all of this? Suppressors are about hearing protection. Given the popularity of hunting and the shooting sports, as well as the former military members who have come home with damaged hearing, you’d think if they cared anything about their profession or the people they’re supposed to serve and protect, they would have already been screaming to congress. As for that matter, the ATF should have already been in front of congress pleading to remove suppressors from the NFA.
Only if they cared …
