Don't throw all of us in that statement.....Probably the NE states and westcoast states might...Southern and middle states, nah.

I think several LEO officials (Chief, Sheriff, DA) in NM stood up to the Govenor who tried to suppress citizens from carrying firearms in Bernalillo county not too long ago.

I hope/pray LEOs are like you and @policemedic

Sorry brother, the precedent has already been set. Even in my beloved South.

Of course it's not "all of us." But it's also not "none of us."

It's super-easy to say what we will and won't do when we're not in the moment.

The Federal courts ruled against that action in 2006. And a bill was passed preventing it.

Disaster Recovery Personal Protection Act of 2006.

"The Disaster Recovery Personal Protection Act of 2006 was a bill introduced in the United States Congress intended to prohibit the confiscation of legally possessed firearms during a disaster. Its provisions became law in the form of the Vitter Amendment to the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2007"

There was an entire Constitution preventing it before it happened, yet it still did.

And it will happen again.
 
Hello, you may now carry at the Post Office.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/ba...s-unconstitutional-us-judge-rules-2024-01-13/

Jan 13 (Reuters) - A federal judge in Florida on Friday ruled that a U.S. law that bars people from possessing firearms in post offices is unconstitutional, citing a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling from 2022 that expanded gun rights.

U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, an appointee of Republican former President Donald Trump in Tampa, reached that conclusion in dismissing part of an indictment charging a postal worker with illegally possessing a gun in a federal facility.

Why this guy is still entrenched in the NRA baffles me. I haven't been a member in years and won't renew until he's removed. He's a crook and not a gun guy. Ruined the NRA.

Ex-N.R.A. Chief Wayne LaPierre Found Liable for Financial Misconduct

The article equates LaPierre’s verdict with the downfall of the organization. Wishful thinking on the part of the Times and the anti-gunners. But I think ditching that creepy ghoul and the two other crooked bastards and the NRA has a chance to become more powerful and effective.

Agree. You put somebody Gung ho in there who can breath new life in to it, like a Colion Noir for example, and the NRA comes back. Lapierre has never had any credibility with trigger pullers, and he's made a mockery of one a once very powerful, American institution.

That escalated quickly. Fucking proper immigrants that come here for a better life, understand our concepts but some Americans suckle the teet of government for their safety.

I read...yesterday? Maybe Tuesday...that Hogg has spent $10 million in PAC money on travel and incidentals rather than gun control lobbying (for which the money was intended). I want to see him and Rittenhouse square off in a ring.
