I hate that I can see how badly these powers could be misused... ...But that things are getting so bad with prosecutorial misconduct, that it might be better than where we are now.

'Shall not be infringed.' Any ruling in the USA that restricts the constitutional right of citizens who are not convicted of a crime is unlawful. Notably, arms are the only specific property named in the constitution.

Especially a tiny-ass state like Massachusetts.

This question isn't very clear. Could you specify what you mean by this?

I don't think he has standing to challenge it. It'd be up to the people whose names are being sought in their records who would have to take legal action. I think. Good on him for at least trying, and letting people know what is happening. Even if this is just ass-covering, it's competent...

The legislators who wrote this bill need to be arrested for conspiracy to deprivation of rights.

Let me clarify then; I haven't talked with any 2A advocates who agree with them being NFA items either, whether the registry is closed or not. Aside from one or two oddball leftist gun owners I've conversed with online, anyone I know who's a 2A advocate has had a very simple stance: "Shall not...

...Where do you get this idea? I mean, you may be right, I'm just not really familiar with anyone who thinks that way. That may just be sampling bias, but the general attitude I've seen is that there's no good reason to ban them from private ownership.

I think you are taking the modicum of competence in your department, and projecting it onto the ATF. The ATF is not long on competence.

We don't need to pass 'constitutional carry,' it is already the actual written law of the land. That's why it's called constitutional. What we need to pass, is a law allowing summary citizen's arrest of any law enforcement officer or politician that attempts to infringe on that constitutional...

Excellent. Of course, I'm sure the AG will kick it up the chain, but it's still good progress.

Good. I read the most salient bit, and this is a good response to a gross over-reach. Bluntly put, the judges that decided this the other way in lower courts should be summarily removed from the bench for blatant bullshit.

I know! Also, the completely draconian gun control laws in the UK are a product of the late 90's. When she started writing, it was still reasonably possible for a private citizen to own a gun without being a criminal.

Harry Potter is one of the most hilariously pro-2A stories out there. The parallel isn't even subtle, the only reason most leftist HP fans aren't already aware of it is because of how ideologically blind they are.

There is some slim hope left. Arizona is having a major audit of the election, and Georgia has serious enough election process reforms underway that the leftists have been trying to mass-boycott it into submission. There's still a chance of things playing out through a lawful framework rather...

Yeah, this is blatant authoritarian power-grabbing. They need to be prosecuted for all kinds of things, up to and including insurrection, because this is usurpation of lawful authority from the legislature.

Well, it's a start.

Thank you for providing that summary.
