¿Qué? No entiendo. Sólo estoy aquí para disparar las armas que los estadounidenses no disparan.

Bien. Gracias por su ayuda. No podríamos hacerlo sin usted.

If she handles Gun Violencetm with the same aplomb she's handled the border, the ATF will be handing out Carl Gustavs by the election.
Now you are just trying to tease us.  I imagine the hard part would be finding a range to let you fire one.

Arrests made in the shooting case that supposedly sparked Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham to issued her "Public Heath Emergency" order

Quote
Authorities in New Mexico said Thursday that two people were arrested in connection with a shooting outside an Albuquerque baseball stadium earlier this month that left an 11-year-old boy dead and another victim critically injured.

Albuquerque Police Chief Harold Medina said at a news conference that Jose Romero, 22, and Nathen Garley, 21, have been charged in connection with the shooting immediately after the Albuquerque Isotopes game on Sept. 6, which left 11-year-old Froylan Villegas dead and left his cousin, Tatiana Villegas, paralyzed from the waist down.

You no good jackasses are holding out on me again. I have to find out from Biden that I can get a gun that fits 100 rounds in the chamber instead of hearing it from you guys? Somebody better post links - I want to buy one this week.

On the serious note - yeah, pretty bad timing on the gun control push.

This is my shocked face.

Quote
New York lawmakers are looking at requiring consumers to first go through a criminal history background check before they can buy certain 3D printers.

The legislation is designed to crack down on potential misuse of 3D printers capable of manufacturing gun parts. The proposal comes from Democratic Assemblymember Jenifer Rajkumar, who introduced the bill on Friday.

Under the legislation, 3D printer retailers would need to request a background check from New York’s criminal justice services when a customer tries to make a purchase. Criminal justice services would then need to notify the retailer if the customer has received a felony or serious offense that would make them ineligible to possess a firearm.

Yes, Creality, The Chinese company known for strictly respecting US and EU Intellectual Property laws and Open Source mandates will definitely comply with NY State law on any shipments heading to the States.

Good thinking there.

Breaking News: SCOTUS Vacates Vanderstok
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUDVVc9iZIE

SCOTUS vacated the injunction on the ATF's frame and receiver rule.  Apparently no opinion was issued along with it.  The case still proceeds and the 5th Circuit could put in their own injunction.

Illinois's gun registration is going well

Quote
According to Illinois State Police data, 2,415,481 gun owners call the Land o’ Lincoln home. Earlier this year, Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed the so-called Protect Illinois Communities Act into law which banned the most many of the most popular guns used for self-defense. Under the law, existing owners of these now verboten firearms must register their guns by January 1, 2024 or face felony charges.

Four weeks into the gun registration window, exactly 2430 of those FOID holders have registered their guns, accessories, or .50 caliber firearms. That works out to .1006%, or about one in a thousand.

What’s even more remarkable is the number of FOID holders choosing to comply has fallen with each passing week.

Quote
Granted, not all FOID holders own the guns that are now banned under the law. However, given the popularity of America’s favorite rifle, the AR-15, not to mention semi-auto shotguns, sales numbers suggest that the majority of them have at least one semi-auto rifle or shotgun in their collection. Or perhaps (gasp!) a handgun with a threaded barrel.

So happy to be out of there! Unfortunately I'm still too close to Mordor on Lake Michigan.

Even though I was out of Illinoy already my FOID card wasn't expired. Some time later I noticed at the gas station that it had broken in half (cheap card), looked at it, it had just expired as well. Good riddance to bad rubbish, in the garbage it went.

At one point after that I also received a letter in the mail, in Indiana, informing me that it was expired. I'm probably on a list there as one of the gun owners without a FOID who didn't register any weapons.

I agree with the trial balloon, observe and adapt concept above. The ratchet only goes left and never stops with these evil petty tyrants.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Don't even think she's going to stop this nonsense

Quote
New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s “temporary” public health emergency on gun violence in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County will remain in place for at least another month after she extended her order on Friday, which includes her revised ban on open and concealed carry in parks and playgrounds.

The ban will last until at least December 1st, though it’s quite possible that Grisham will renew the order again at the end of this month, especially since there’s been no real improvement in crime stats in the Albuquerque area.
