Dean Weingarten has a good find at Ammoland.
Judge Eduardo Ramos, the U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York, has issued an Opinion & Order that a ban on stun guns is constitutional. A New York State law prohibits the private possession of stun guns and tasers; a New York City law prohibits the possession and selling of stun guns. Judge Ramos has ruled these laws do not infringe on rights protected by the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.

Combat narratives from veterans who engaged Viet Cong or North Vietnamese Army units at close range during the war are filled with stories of pistols used effectively. Handguns became a necessary fall-back option when rifles or machine guns jammed or ran out of ammunition. In such desperate engagements, the stopping power of the .45 ACP round was particularly praised as a rapid and reliable solution.
Throughout the long war in Vietnam, a number of soldiers and Marines carried civilian-made sidearms. This was largely in the early years of the war, when regulations regarding personal defense weapons were more relaxed. These weapons were either brought from home or sent to Vietnam by anxious family and friends.

Just like in World War I, World War II and the Korean War, there were never enough M1911 pistols to meet the demand. American troops believed in, trusted and faithfully carried it on their hip or shoulder whenever and wherever they went into combat.
My love for the firearm puts me in good company. Regardless of your commitment to high capacity magazines, the 1911 still lives, and today earns more respect and demands more money than plastic pistols.
It shoots a man-killer round that can be converted with +P ammunition to be large-animal killers with ball ammo. It’s slim, sleek design makes it easy to acquire and reacquire sight picture and target, its single stack design makes it easy to grip and handle (especially for someone affected with RA like me), and its reliable operation engenders trust and confidence.
While change marks the nature of the plastic pistol market, the 1911 has changed very little over the century – because perfection doesn’t need change.

About the same time as Kyle turned himself into the police on 26 August, CAIR Chicago was mobilizing a political campaign urging the political powers in Kenosha to prosecute him. They named Kyle and urged a phone and email campaign.
But that should come as no surprise. CAIR is Hamas is the Muslim Brotherhood, and wants to dominate the world. They are all terrorists.
They should have been kicked off of American soil a long time ago. But for the petrol-dollar and the U.S. alignment with the House of Saud, a whole lot of things would have been done a long time ago.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed legislation changing the state’s sex offender law to allow judges to have a say on whether to list someone as a sex offender for having oral or anal sex with a minor.
The bill expands discretion already granted to judges to decide if a man should be on California’s sex offender registry, but the existing discretion had applied only to a man who had vaginal intercourse, The Associated Press reported.
The legislation Newsom signed Friday permits judges to use the same discretion when the case involves voluntary oral or anal sex.
He would love nothing better than to shut down good men like John MacArthur. The church lost its most recent fight in court, and today they had worship services in defiance of his obscene governor. This isn’t his sermon from today, but in this short video he catalogs the incredibly onerous requirements placed on his church.
In Presbyterian parlance, MacArthur is a “teaching elder” (I realize his church is independent). Paul says, “Let elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor.” But with that honor, there is risk.
If you have led the flock astray, if you have failed to preach the unmitigated Word of the Lord, if you have succumbed to “Critical Race Theory” or any other faddish notion like N.T. Wright’s advocacy of works salvation, so-called German “Higher Criticism” of the Scriptures (Form, Source or Redaction criticism), or any other Marxist teaching like liberation theology or race-guilt, you will be judged doubly or even worse.
The notion of “calling” to preach the Gospel in the Scriptures is a serious thing, involving first of all a drive and motivation to do it, and second a recognition by the congregation that God has indeed gifted you with the intellectual and spiritual tools to do the job.
In other words, you have sought the job. The job didn’t seek you. This is something you wanted. The weight of the souls of His people is on your shoulders and heart. If you fail at your job, the weight of eternity will be on you in the worst sort of way.
If you are unwilling to do what John MacArthur did, that is, to defy the political authorities because of your commitment to the Lord, if you are unwilling to put your hands behind your back and be carted off to prison for your faith, then give up your ordination immediately.
You are a false teacher. You are a fraud. You are a fake. You are an impostor. God has commanded His people to worship him (Heb 10:25). If you do not do that, you are obeying men rather than God. Your worry should be for your own salvation rather than your flock. And since that is the case, the sermons you have preached should be shunned by the Christian community given that you are a fraud, and you’re nothing more than a carnival barker.
The next step, and the one that will probably not be taken by the elders Grace Community Church, is that the men of the church should begin bringing rifles to worship with them (in the best tradition of American history), encircle the physical plant, and make it clear to law enforcement that they intend to do lethal battle to prevent their pastor from being cuffed and spirited off to prison.
MacArthur should be willing to go to prison. Apparently, he is. The men of the church should be willing to shoot to ensure that doesn’t happen. I doubt they will. Thus the church will continue to be run over like a road bump.
That’s lying in wait to take a life, and the Scriptures categorize it as murder. So what did Antifa/BLM do?
They thought it was just special.
The Sheriff’s Office put out on social media that protesters were blocking the entrances to the hospital and ambulances and paramedics were having difficulty getting through.
To the protesters blocking the entrance & exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling "We hope they die" referring to 2 LA Sheriff's ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES & EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL. People's lives are at stake when ambulances can't get through.
Antifa/BLM dress trashy and dirty. They allow their bodies to become trashy because of lack of personal hygiene. Their choice of clothing is trashy. Their speech is trashy. The people they hang with are all trashy. Their intent is trashy. Their world and life view is trashy.
Yes it’s true that they are all communists, and that makes them loathsome anyway. But beyond that, they’re all trashy people. Their mug shots look awful, they’re all ugly, they have done rude things to their bodies, their women try to make themselves look terrible, their men try to make themselves look like women, and it’s obvious that they hate themselves as well as others.
