The 2022 Supreme Court decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen, 597 U.S. ___ (2022), delivered a seismic blow to the anti-gun agenda, striking down an estimated 20,000 federal, state, and local gun laws that blatantly violated the Second Amendment. This landmark ruling reaffirmed an undeniable truth: the Second Amendment means what it says and says what it means—the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Yet, in open defiance of the Constitution and the Supreme Court, blue states have launched a full-scale rebellion. They’ve flooded the courts with resistance and doubled down by enacting even more unconstitutional gun laws. Let there be no doubt: the Bruen decision is a line in the sand, a call to restore the fundamental freedoms enshrined in our Bill of Rights. The Second Amendment is not negotiable.

Some Important Tactical Lessons were Learned About Combatting Government Tyranny at the Bundy Ranch
Bundy Ranch, Nevada—About 80 miles Northeast of Las Vegas
the scene was a cattle ranch and the sprawling rangeland around it. On one side were BLM Rangers with battle
gear and dogs. Men and women trying to
convince the rangers to leave them, the cattle and the ranch in peace occupied
the other side. Tensions were high as
the rangers threatened to shoot the civilians.
Because the area is rural sources for water, prepared meals,
ammunition was greatly limited. The two
sides had gathered ready for a very violent conflict. .
The Barack Obama worshiping network media did not want the nation
seeing the heavy hand of their Messiah crushing a longtime cattle rancher and
his supporters. That would damage the carefully crafted image they created for him. They will always avoid humiliating Obama at
all cost. However Social Media and some
news organizations covered the resistance movement really well.
Because of Social Media, thousand of civilians understood
that a rogue government was waging a terror and harassment campaign against a family
under color of law. Some of them traveled
many miles at their own expense and personal risk to protect a targeted fellow
American.
For now the tyranny was halted. I’m sure that Obama and his henchmen are
fuming because of their humiliating failure. The Second Amendment was exercised effectively and successfully.
Both sides of the conflict understood that there was absolute
resolve by the assembled resistance to begin bloody combat and that threated
government agents. I also suspect that
those agents began questioning and perhaps balking at orders from the
Whitehouse. That too may have made a
difference that, for now that ended the confrontation.
Were the defenders of freedom properly prepared? In this tactical exercise we could see how
the raw power of government can quickly take steps against the population. During this siege the government exercised
their ability to quickly shut down cell-phone towers disrupting the civilian
communications.
The Whitehouse also ordered the FAA to declare a No Fly Zone
so news agencies could not observe or report on the government siege with
helicopters. Government officials did not want murders civilians to be seen by the rest of the nation live on television. This FAA No Fly Zone order certainly had
nothing to do with public safety! Entering
restricted air space could easily result in a military response including the
shooting down of aircraft. It’s not
some idle threat.
The steps government thugs followed the current tactical blueprint
of how they are prepared to deal with civilian resistance to the Obama Junta. Our rogue government played their hand showing
us those things we must expect. We need
not guess anymore what they might do.
We learned that Just having sufficient numbers makes the
most important difference. If you have
the numbers pragmatism by the tyrants can rule your side.
For the most part the government is generally able to
control the immediate shipment of food, fuel and medical supplies to any
area. They can control most of but not
all the electricity, natural gas, cell-phone communications and Internet.
The need for water, water filtering material, solar power and generators for communication devices lights are a must. Wilderness survival skills are second nature to most military veteran and hunters.
The need for water, water filtering material, solar power and generators for communication devices lights are a must. Wilderness survival skills are second nature to most military veteran and hunters.
To combat the communications cut off everyone needs to have
inexpensive family service walkie-talkie radios available ant any Target,
WalMart, Best Buy or Amazon.com for a secondary communication source. They work for miles and that beats nothing. There are also citizen’s band (CB) radios and
Ham radios and the later can communicate globally. There are also satellite telephones used
mostly by sailors on the high seas were cell phone towers don’t exist.
Getting overhead video of such scenes inside an FAA no fly
zone is a snap these days with those new camera-drones no larger than a small
pizza. They are so small that they are very
difficult to spot in the sky or take out by gunfire. They can observe with HD video and report
things that our rogue politicians want kept secret. The drones are easy to fly and there are
cheap versions coming in at less than $1,000.00.
The use of American military and police against neighbors
and relatives has a built-in fail-safe mechanism. Those people all swear an oath the
Constitution and not to any politician.
If they are real Americans they will be able to recognize unlawful
orders and must disobey them.
Unfortunately our government has thousands of armed
contractors that function as well-paid mercenaries that take no oath. The contractors know they will be able to
rob, rape and murder unfettered during civil unrest. We must demand laws be enacted that
contractors are never permitted to perform military or police operations within
American borders.
Today with Internet capability broadcasting live streaming
video reports on the Internet direct from the scene of combat operations is
relatively simple. Of course the opposition
will be monitoring the reports too.
The skinny on combat rifles is that the most common and
popular combat rifles are ineffective for government resistance. The .30X39 AK-47 round and the 5.56 MM M-4
platform rounds are carryover from close in jungle warfare in Viet Nam where no
real armor was involved.
Today’s modern military and police armor both for vehicles and body is rated to stop the 5.56 MM and .30X39. However that armor is very vulnerable to penetration by common WWII rifle rounds such as the .30-06 and the .308. Most American hunting rifles use the same or even larger rounds and can defeat the light armor, but those guns are greatly underrated these days because don’t look as mean. I’ll take a 75 year old M-1 Garand over a M-16 anytime. The FNFAL and M-14 are far superior to most of what our police and military uses.

Political tyrants are in fact are always the ones pulling
the triggers even more so than their thugs.
Whenever possible they should be tracked down and captured. It’s impossible for them to order any military
action if they are missing.
The most important need is for absolute determination,
resolve and courage to preserve our hard won liberty and freedom.

Whitehouse Propagandists Claim 90% of Americans want Expanded Background Checks. Really?
Protesters across from The George Brown Convention Center in Houston Texas |
Houston, TX—The National Rifle Association just held their
Annual Meeting here. Membership of the
NRA tops five million. This meeting
hosted a record crowd of over 86,000 folks that came in from all 50 states. The economy of Houston was boosted along
with public safety. You see most of the
NRA members came armed with lawful loaded and concealed weapons.
As for that 90% claim there were about two-dozen determined
demonstrators that can be seen above. I
guess it’s time to wonder where these 90% are hiding. The answer is abundantly clear that 90%
figure is the product of an Obama wet dream.
I was hanging out for a while with none other than Glen Beck at the Eagle Grips booth who seemed to like Mother of Pearl and Ivory grips for some of his personal
firearms.

Are Military Assault Weapons Constitutionally Protected? The Answer!
Washington, DC—Prohibition brought about unprecedented
violence in the United States as criminals fought over the lucrative alcohol
trade. By 1934 Prohibition was over but
the memories Chicago's St. Valentine’s Day Massacre and numerous other crimes were
fresh in our politicians memories. They
passed the nation’s first federal gun control law.
Prior to The National Firearms Act of 1934 Americans could
buy most military small arms and explosive devices at their local hardware store
or by the convenience of the US Postal Service!
Machineguns, hand grenades, Bazookas and silencers could be purchased
and no questions were asked.
The new gun law was not a ban on these weapons but a stiff $200.00 tax on
each regulated item. Taxing rights soon became unconstitutional when the Supreme Court later outlawed Poll Taxes
because they discriminated against poor people.
That tax has never been raised because they simply know that the tax won’t
stand a court challenge.
The so-called class 3 weapons and devices were registered
and a paperwork blizzard was created to make ownership of these weapons
difficult and expensive. To this day
there’s never been federally registered weapon used in a crime by its
owner! I know of one case where a man
was arrested after killing an attacker with a fully automatic registered and taxed rifle but he was
acquitted at his trial.
The Supreme Court took up USA v. Miller after Jack Miller
was arrested and convicted for possession of a short-barreled shotgun. He argued that the law violated his
Constitutional rights successfully before the Court of Appeals but prosecutors
appealed to the Supreme Court. However when it came time for briefs and argument Miller had disappeared and no lawyer was there to argue his case. The court decided the case without Miller anyway.
The most important part of the opinion was the passage
below. The problem with this passage was
the judges were ignorant of the fact that the military used many short-barreled
shotguns called trench guns!
“In the absence of any evidence tending to show that possession
or use of a "shotgun having a barrel of less than eighteen inches in
length" at this time has some reasonable relationship to the preservation
or efficiency of a well regulated militia, we cannot say that the Second
Amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear such an instrument. Certainly
it is not within judicial notice that this weapon is any part of the ordinary
military equipment, or that its use could contribute to the common defense.
Aymette v. State, 2 Humphreys (Tenn.) 154, 158.”
Accordingly the court held that weapons suitable for
national defense are Constitutionally protected! That’s still the law of the land! Large capacity magazines and belt fed
ammunition have long been part of weapons involved with national defense.
Today's politicians don't know or care about the law. They just want to dictate our liberty away. Within the last few years we have the Heller and McDonald cases that have rallied the Second Amendment in a big way.

Registering Gun Owner and their Guns Like Sex Offenders is an Outrage that Must End!
Blogger Paul Huebl with a S&W model 29 .44 Magnum revolver. |
Washington, DC—Creating lists of law-abiding Americans with
firearms has no benefits whatsoever. Guns
are almost never left at crime scenes and when they are learning the legal
owners identity is usually meaningless because the offender is either captured
or killed.
There are two U.S. Supreme Court cases that make it clear
that persons precluded by law from owning firearms cannot be forced to register
their guns or face prosecution when they don’t.
Registration violates their rights against self-incrimination.
We all saw the recent fallout from the names and personal
information being published by a Leftist newspaper trying to somehow shame gun
owners. That list also told every thug,
rapist and killer where to find unarmed and helpless victims.
Proponents of registration schemes claim that gun
registration is harmless and no different than drivers and automobile
licensing. They’re dead wrong because
driving or owning a car is not constitutionally protected activity. The license to keep and bear arms is the
Second Amendment! I should add that
charging citizens a fee to exercise
their right to keep and bear arms is no more lawful that the Poll Taxes of the
Deep South.
Canada had a gun registry for decades that was incredibly
expensive, wasteful and ineffective. They
finally saw the light and jettisoned it for good. Remember Canada has no express right to own
firearms like America does.
Gun rights are set aside for combatting government tyranny
and for self-defense. We should not be
relegated only antique or ineffective arms for this purpose. The U.S. Supreme Court called the suggestion
that the Second Amendment only protected the kind of muskets that were available
at the time of its promulgation frivolous in the recent Heller case. The Heller case really covers the M-4/AR-15
and magazine capacity issues adequately.
Registering gun owners like sex offenders and felons serves
no purpose except to harass and infringe on the rights of your fellow
Americans. That is in itself unlawful.
We must also remember the millions of soldiers buried in
veteran’s cemeteries that gave their lives so we could have the freedom and
liberty that Barack Obama and his cronies are trying to take from Americans. Millions of us are ready to take up arms to
defend those rights like the Minutemen of our Revolutionary War once again.
Please, let’s not force gun owners to take to the streets to protect their
Constitutional rights again. The fact is
that we will if that becomes necessary because of any act of war against
Americans by tyrannical government actions.
The very politicians and bureaucrats that are pushing this
oppression will be the very first targets for armed resistance.

Wisconsin Concealed Weapon Prohibition Declared Unconstitutional
Clark County, WI—Last June, Joshua D. Schultz, of Sauk City was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon. Since this state had no provision for permits exactly like Illinois this absolute ban violates the right to keep and bear arms.
The defense made a simple Motion to Dismiss and Judge Jon M. Counsell ruled the law violated the Constitution. Schultz was freed. Now Schultz can go to the U.S. District Court and sue police for the violation of his Civil Rights under USC 1983.
Like it or not Heller and McDonald is the law of the land. State and local governments may be able to require permits if they are freely issued to law-abiding citizens. The existing blanket prohibitions against concealed weapons cannot stand.
Here is the ruling:
Schultz CCW
