Tomorrow (maybe today when you read this) is election day.
I know how my readers feel, at least the ones who comment. I won’t tell you what to do. You wouldn’t listen anyway, not that you should.
My own philosophy is that I don’t have Grover Cleveland or Calvin Coolidge to vote for. They aren’t on the ballot. The obviously small government, non-interventionist, closed border candidate won’t be named on the paper in front of me. That’s not my fault.
I will vote. I consider that my duty. I will vote how my conscience dictates. I will not vote for self-proclaimed communists, regardless of how much I dislike some of the infringements on the other side.
I can do nothing more, and nothing less, with what I’ve been given. My station in life dictates how much authority and power I have. I’m satisfied with what God has given me. I will neither ask nor demand any more than what I’ve been given. The rest is in His hands.
The problem with this video, other than the fact that it outright promotes communism because Kamala Harris is a communist, is that she uses the word “compete.” There is no compete if everyone ends up at the same place.
But consistency has never been a strong suit of the controllers.
“A source with knowledge of the situation has revealed … that in October 2018, Hunter Biden’s handgun was taken from his vehicle without his knowledge by Hallie Biden — the widow of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s son Beau — and she placed it in a garbage can outside a Delaware supermarket,” The Blaze reported Thursday.
[ … ]
Further, we are told “agents from the United States Secret Service as well as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives visited the shop where Hunter Biden purchased the gun” and that they “asked the shop owner for the file on Hunter Biden’s gun purchase — and that a copy was provided.”
Hmm … let’s see. What happens if you’re a crack addict and sign form 4473 trying to buy a firearm?
I have no doubt this report is true based on everything else we know about this duo of demons.
Police interviewed Rittenhouse’s 18-year-old friend, who told them he bought the rifle at an Ace Hardware in Ladysmith, Wisconsin, using money Rittenhouse had given him. The friend said the rifle was only supposed to be used for hunting and that he stored it in a safe at his stepfather’s house in Kenosha.
We don’t know the details of the alleged transaction, but you can be sure they’ll prosecute this as a straw purchase.
Kyle and his friends had a naive trust in the police (I say had hopefully, rather than have). Someone should have told both of them never to talk to the police.
So one of these crimes will never be charged, and the other alleged crime will certainly see the inside of a courtroom.
Despite ATF previously stating that there is no limit to how long or heavy a handgun should be to qualify as “sporting” under section 925(d)(3), ATF private classification letters issued within the past few months indicate that the agency has shifted course by reinterpreting what constitutes a “handgun.” In company-specific letters, ATF takes the position that if a submitted firearm is too long or too heavy, it fails to meet the definition of “handgun” under the Gun Control Act, as it is not “designed to be held and fired by the use of a single hand.” The Firearms and Ammunition Technology Division (FATD) of ATF—which conducts importability evaluations—says that it is taking a subjective approach to the statute by allowing individual examiners to determine if he or she can fire the weapon with one hand without difficulty.
This approach is resulting in inconsistent determinations, of which the regulated community should take note. Within the past few months, at least one HK91 pistol-style submission as light as 8 pounds, with a barrel length of 8-3/4 inches and an overall length of 21-3/4 inches, has been determined to fall outside the definition of “handgun.” This is a change from previous determinations where firearms weighing over 8 pounds, with 20-inch barrels, and an overall length of approximately 31-1/2 inches were held by FATD to be “handguns.” Since the letters are not publicly available, it is impossible for regulated companies to know the full range of FATD’s determinations. This has serious implications for regulated businesses.
In some of the new letters, ATF has begun listing the following “objective design features” when making its evaluations:
Incorporation of rifle sights;
Utilization of “rifle caliber ammunition” (both 5.56mm and 7.62mm have been considered as such);
Incorporation of “rifle-length barrel;”1
The “weapon’s heavy weight;”
Ability to accept magazines that range in capacity from 20 rounds to 100 rounds, “which will contribute to the overall weight of the firearm”; and
Overall length of the weapon which “creates a front-heavy imbalance when held in one hand.”
However, ATF also noted in the most recent private ruling that the above design features are “neither binding on future classifications nor is any factor individually determinative[.]” ATF explained without elaboration that “the statutory and regulatory definitions provide the appropriate standard in classifying the firearm.” ATF concluded that “a firearm that is too large, too heavy or . . . otherwise not designed to be held and fired in one hand (as demonstrated by the objective features) cannot be a handgun under the statutory definition and cannot be subject to importation criteria governing handguns.” In light of ATF’s subjective and inconsistent analysis of size and weight, it is difficult to predict how the agency will classify any given firearm under this standard.
As was always the intent. The bureaucratic state is always the implementing organ of communism, and law enforcement is always the underwriter of its rules and regulations.
Well, not completely. The charge of disorderly conduct remains, but if they charged him with unlawful carrying and discharge of a firearm, they would undermine their case against Kyle Rittenhouse.
BREAKING: @RudyGiuliani announces he has turned over Hunter Biden hard drive to Delaware State Police due to pictures of underage girls and inappropriate text messages
This would appear to square with reports that one of the FBI agents who signed the subpoena to take control of the hard drive is Special Agent Joshua Wilson, who investigates crimes committed against children.
So he’s a pedophile. Is anyone really surprised? Is Joe Biden surprised?
