Calls For Trump To Nominate Pro Gun ATF Director
From The Truth About Guns:
Gun rights groups have already started making requests to President Trump, abolishing the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention being among the first. Unsurprisingly, it looks as if that request has already made its way onto a checklist, as one of President Trump’s goals this time around is to trim some of the proverbial bureaucratic fat. Lawrence Keane, senior vice president and general counsel of the National Shooting Sports Foundation, seems to agree that a good place to start is where taxpayer dollars are being spent on efforts to erode their own freedom.
The Trace Uses Assassination Attempt To Attack Supreme Court Gun Rights Decision
From The Truth About Guns:
In its latest Bruen-bashing editorial, hot on the heels of its latest series about the decision, The Trace tries to make readers think that Ryan Routh, the Democrat donor and latest attempted Trump assassin, will likely walk free because of the Supreme Court ruling.
“Supreme Court Ruling Threatens Gun Charges Filed in Trump’s Alleged Assassination Attempt,” the headline reads. First let’s set the “Alleged” part aside. There was an assassination attempt, no “Alleged” to it. The man arrested is the “alleged” would-be assassin, but I don’t believe any thinking person really believes there wasn’t an attempt on Trump’s life.
Canadian Gun Banner Complains Nothing Was Done After Attempted Trump Assassination
From The Tyee:
But my question for the politicians and media who are obsessing over the attempt on Trump’s life is this. With the country standing knee-deep in gun deaths, with the violence going up like a rocket, where is the resolve and commitment to keep regular people safe?
Why does it seem more important who gets shot, rather than how many other victims fall with virtually no changes to the country’s dreadful gun laws?
Gun Owners Need To Register To Vote
From Ammoland:
The Arbalest Quarrel looked into the failure of millions of gun owners to register to vote. We learned that Ten Million American gun owners have not registered to vote in the 2024 U.S. Presidential election. This is no small number and can have a decisive impact on the outcome of Federal Elections.
Trump Would-Be Assassin Bought Gun From Dad
From Bearing Arms:
“The weapon that he used for the attempted assassination was an AR-style rifle that was purchased legally,” Wray said. “We believe, based on what we’ve seen, that his father, after purchasing the gun, legally sold the gun to his son.”
The Attempted Assassination Of Trump Was A Near Miss For Him and The Country
From Ammoland:
The assassination attempt on Donald Trump was not a fluke but instead the latest in a long series of attacks and attempted attacks against conservative public figures, typically preceded by hyperbolic political rhetoric.
But forget all that. All is well again, thanks to the man who branded not only Trump but any MAGA American an “existential threat to democracy,” who called Trump “semi-fascist,” who said “It’s time to put Trump in a bullseye,” and who now proclaims that you should “turn down the temperature.”
Make Sure Your Gun Owning Friends Are Registered To Vote
This is surprising, shocking, and altogether unacceptable. Voting is a Sacred Right and a tremendously important responsibility. The Arbalest Quarrel looked into the failure of millions of gun owners to register to vote. We learned that Ten Million American gun owners have not registered to vote in the 2024 U.S. Presidential election. This is no small number and can have a decisive impact on the outcome of Federal Elections.
Gun Advocates Stick To Principles After Assassination Attempt
From Bearing Arms:
… the media is filled with stories about how the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump should prompt gun control. So far, no one in the Republican Party is saying any such thing, though. That’s not overly surprising since, as I feel obligated to point out far too often now, they didn’t fold on guns after the shooting in Alexandria, Virginia.
But it seems the folks over at Vox are upset that Republicans aren’t changing everything right now in how they view guns.
Anti-Gunners Use Trump Assassination Attempt To Push More Bans
From Bearing Arms:
After narrowly dodging a bullet from an AR-15 rifle, former US President Donald Trump, now vying for the 2024 presidential bid under the Republican banner, may find himself pondering anew on his stance regarding gun rights. The attempt on Trump’s life at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday night casts a significant shadow over the upcoming Republican National Convention, set to begin on Monday in Milwaukee. Trump has often championed the cause of citizen gun ownership, yet amid mass shootings events before, there were fleeting moments where he entertained the notion that some form of regulation might be prudent.
Does Hunter Biden Deserve A Pardon?
From Bearing Arms:
But there’s a case to be made that, whatever other crimes Trump may accuse the Biden family of committing, he should announce he’ll pardon Hunter Biden on the gun charges if he’s reelected in November.
There are a substantial number of gun owners (me included) who think that at least one of the statutes Hunter Biden was convicted of violating is an unconstitutional infringement on our Second Amendment rights. Should “unlawful” users of drugs be barred from possessing firearms? Or rather, can they be prohibited from exercising their Second Amendment rights simply because they use illegal drugs?
Supreme Court Rahimi Decision More Important With Trump Conviction
From Bearing Arms:
I think there’s an incredibly strong change that Trump’s conviction will be thrown out on appeal, but that could still be years away. In the meantime, the Supreme Court is probably Trump’s best bet to keep his Second Amendment rights intact, and the Court’s impeding decision in U.S. v. Rahimi provides a perfect vehicle for the justices to give Trump and others convicted of non-violent felonies relief from current federal law.
In Rahimi, the justices are expected to decide whether someone subject to a domestic violence restraining order can be prohibited from possessing or purchasing a firearm. We don’t know how the Court will rule, but it’s certainly not out of the question that a majority will conclude that Zachey Rahimi and others in similar circumstances can be barred from owning a gun; not solely because of a domestic violence restraining order, but based on a particularized finding of “dangerousness”.
The Gun Rights Implications Of Trump’s Guilty Verdict
From The Truth About Guns:
With 34 felony convictions being delivered to President Donald J. Trump Thursday afternoon by a New York jury—in what is questionably a rigged trial and unquestionably a politically motivated trial—there remain a number of questions on what will actually happen next and how it will play out. One thing that is not in question, at least until a successful appeal is decided on, is that Trump is now barred from owning or possessing firearms.
Journalist Stephen Gutowski over at The Reload was quick to report on some of the obvious ironies this situation creates for gun rights in this country.
Was The FBI Prepared To Shoot Secret Service, Trump?
From The Federalist:
The FBI was authorized to use “deadly force” against former President Donald Trump when the Biden administration agency raided Mar-a-Lago in search of classified documents, according to newly unsealed court documents shared on X by independent journalist Julie Kelly.
A newly unsealed operations order reveals the FBI was authorized to use deadly force against the former president if need be, Kelly reported.
Poll: Americans Admit To Possible 2020 Election Fraud With Mail-in Ballots
From The Federalist:
The Heartland Institute/Rasmussen survey, which was conducted from Nov. 30 to Dec. 6, asked likely voters who cast ballots in 2020 questions about fraudulent activities, without telling them such actions were a form of voter fraud. The results were stunning. One in five people who voted by mail admitted to engaging in at least one kind of potential voter fraud, seriously calling into question the security of widespread mail-in balloting.
