Black robed tyrannical bastards strike again. George H.W. Bush appointee upholds the unSAFE Act.

William Marion Skretny.

By way of Bob Owens the Official Regime Newspaper reports: U.S. Judge Upholds Most New York Gun Limits

Gun rights groups have responded with outrage to the new laws, holding demonstrations at the Capitol in Albany, denouncing politicians like Mr. Cuomo and questioning the laws’ legality. Some gun owners have said they will refuse to comply with a requirement that people who already own assault weapons register them with the state.

Defy. Resist. Evade. Smuggle.

FedUp said...: So a 7 round limit is unconstitutional and has no basis in fact, but a 10 round limit is okey-dokey? I'm wondering what mental process can possibly support a decision like that.; January 1, 2014 at 7:15 AM
FedUp said...: On second thought, he might be using the Heller decision's "in common usage" to say that 11 rounds are uncommonly dangerous, but knows that 10 rounders are legal and common everywhere in the country.

In short, I think he's saying that bans on 11 round magazines are legal because they've been in force in enough places for long enough that we should just live with them, just like the NFA.; January 1, 2014 at 7:24 AM
rexxhead said...: I love it when things like this happen. Not the SAFE act being upheld as lawful, but that being done by a Bush appointee. It adds a delightful flavor to all those posts encouraging us to vote for the lesser of two evils.

Would someone of that persuasion care here to explain how this would have been worse had this soi-disant Republican been a Democrat?; January 1, 2014 at 8:56 AM
FedUp said...: Rexx, an Obama appointee probably would have upheld the 7 round limit, as anything beyond a M1911 is "uncommonly dangerous."; January 1, 2014 at 10:22 AM
Anonymous said...: The 1911 .45ACP has been commonly 'uncommonly dangerous' to tyrants ... well since 1911!

103 years and counting ...

Ed said...: Rexxhead,
You vote for the best candidate running (aka "the least worst"), write in a candidate of your choice, or do not vote for anybody (the "none of the above" option"). What other meaningful option do you suggest?; January 1, 2014 at 9:52 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
