NRA ILA: California: County Sheriffs Sue Los Angeles over Ordinance Prohibiting Possession of Large-Capacity Magazines. More:

Now, 30 duly elected California Sheriffs, two law enforcement organizations, the California Rifle and Pistol Association (CRPA), and several other individuals have filed a lawsuit seeking to invalidate the ordinance. The lawsuit challenges the magazine possession ban on legal preemption grounds, because California state law specifically allows for the possession of such magazines.

Ladd is butthurt that suppressors are becoming popular and the market is responding.

I guess the reporter didn’t get the memo that a self-loading, politically incorrect rifle belongs to the police, it’s a “patrol rifle“: Officer loses assault rifle while changing flat tires

Shorter WaPo: No real relationship between carrying guns and crime, so you’re wrong to support it.

From their website:

Plaintiffs challenging a so-called gun violence tax recently passed by the Seattle City Council have today filed a motion for summary judgment in their lawsuit, citing Washington States long-standing preemption statute which fully occupies and preempts the entire field of firearms regulation within the boundaries of the state. The motion was filed in King County Superior Court.

That right there is one epic failure of editing or the profession.

Sen. Chuck Schumer demands that U.S. Army’s handgun supplier doesnt sell arms to dealers doing business with criminals

Except that headline isn’t reality (“journalism”), what Chucky wants is:

. . . that contract to include two safety provisions the winning bidder must develop “smart gun” technology, and must cut off business ties with the “1 percent” of gun dealers that sell guns to criminals.

Headline: New laws force police to put guns back on the street

What really happened is that some states realized they could earn some extra police money by selling perfectly good commodities to the public.

The media is welcoming the fact the Democrats spent a few minutes during their debate discussing who wanted to ban guns and civil liberties more. During lunch today with some guys from LuckyGunner, we discussed this very thing. In the last few elections, the talk from the dems was “we respect your second amendment rights but . . .” and now, they seem to be embracing gun control. I pondered if it was because big money guys like Bloomberg had them convinced it was a popular thing or they were just whoring for the money.

At least they’re discussing it openly. Should make for an interesting election.

The NRA is standing behind a bill that would eliminate the $200 tax on suppressors and require buyers to go through a background check.

If we regulated cars like we did guns, everyone would have to drive with hearing protection on.

First, CNN admits that the political power of the NRA comes from people. Individuals. Members. You know, grassroots. And not as the arm of the gun lobby:

A CNNMoney analysis of federal campaign finance records shows that much of this money comes from everyday Americans. And these contributions, which the NRA uses to keep pro-gun lawmakers in office, are on the rise.

Some political funding comes from big corporations, many within the gun industry, which donate millions to the NRA. But companies are barred from donating to the NRAs political action committee, which the agency uses to fill campaign coffers, run ads and send out mailers for and against candidates.

On the anti-gun lobby, they say that they need money because they lack people.

Over at Reason.com, a discussion of their plans against him.

My own theory of why they fear him is, maybe, a bit more convoluted. The last two elections, McCain and Romney proved that without the base, you can’t win the election. If Trump were to win, it would prove that you could win without the establishment. And that’s the real fear there.

Some imbecile thinks that the NRA is waning in power and that the Brady Campaign Desperate To Raise Money is rising. He’s clearly not paying attention.

Meanwhile, speculation that the NRA will fall because of immigration. I live in an area with a lot of immigrants and resident workers (mostly Japanese and Mexican). Do you know what they all do when they get here? They shoot guns and buy guns.

Near The City (My The City), Advanced Munitions, maker of HPR Ammunition, will open a $553M facility that employees 600 or so people.

News has already hit the shooting community. First Beretta, and now another in the firearms biz.

Heard the CEO on the radio today saying that they came here for the NRA convention and loved Tennessee. They were first going to move to Texas.
