Gun Free Zone

General Bill by Rodrigues
Preemption of Firearms and Ammunition Regulation: Providing that written or unwritten policies are subject to provisions allowing for recovery of damages if such policies violate specified provisions; providing that a plaintiff challenging a local government regulation concerning firearms is considered a prevailing plaintiff for certain purposes in specified circumstances, etc.

Read the bill.

Votes: Yeas 6   Nays 3.

And watching the proceedings, I know understand this part:

If after the filing of a complaint a defendant voluntarily changes the ordinance, regulation, measure, directive, rule, enactment, order, or policy, written or unwritten, promulgated or caused to be enforced in violation of this section, with or without court action, the plaintiff is considered a prevailing plaintiff for purposes of this section.

As explained, it means that once a lawsuit has been initiated, it does not matter that the local government or official changes it or nullifies the violation to state preemption, they still will have to pay for court costs and legal fees.  The way I see it, that will stop the temptation of making an ordinance and then getting rid of it just to drain the bank account of the plaintiff.

Marion Hammer representing the NRA and Unified Sportsmen of Florida’s waived in support of the bill and representatives from Moms Demand and two other interest groups waived in opposition.

And I just got an email informing me the bill has been sent to the Senate’s Judiciary committee.

The House version is up for discussion tomorrow with the Civil Justice & Property Rights Subcommittee.

I’ll keep you posted.

It shouldn't be easier to buy a gun than to vote. Pass it on.

If you lie it’s 10 years in a federal prison.

Yes, 100% this.  I’ll take it.

It’s been a very long 15 days.

McConnell says he would enact conservative policies with “zero input” from Dems. Lists defunding planned parenthood, sanctuary cities and nationwide right to work, concealed carried reciprocity in D.C. and 50 states

Don’t threaten me with a good time, just fucking do it already.

BREAKING: Judge excuses Juror #62 who says he is concerned for his family's safety if he serves on the George Floyd jury.

Says one verdict is 'the path of least resistance' for public opinion, but knows that may not be the truth

That is 100% honesty right there.

The jurors who might be open to the truth and a verdict that the mob doesn’t want are too scared of the mob to want to sit on the jury.

The Democrats are back in full Klan mode.  This is exactly what the Klan did.  They made sure juries voted they way they wanted by intimidation.

This is functionally no different.

The Constitutional right to an impartial jury is dead.  The mob killed it.

A friend who knows that I covered the David Hogg spite pillow story a few weeks back sent me this:

David Hogg’s Pillow Company Seems to Have Already Failed

Watching Hogg try to launch his pillow company, called Good Pillow, was like being forced to watch a train wreck, as his public pleas for ideas and suggestions felt more like desperate cries for help than legitimate crowdsourcing. Yet the patheticness of it all didn’t matter to the media. As PJM’s Megan Fox reported last month, Hogg’s pillow company, despite being in the embryonic stage of development, (they didn’t even have a logo yet) was getting free publicity from the Washington Post.

Well, so much for that. Good Pillow’s website (featuring their $200 2-hour logo) doesn’t appear to have been changed in a long time, and Good Pillow’s Twitter account hasn’t posted a tweet in over a month. Its last tweet, posted February 10, reported that the company is “trying to finalize the list of charity partners will [sic] be launching with” and asked followers to list any organizations they should support.

Since then, silence.

Hogg didn’t even register the trademark.

I predicted they would fail as a business. Woke business always fails and, by Jove, they were Woke.

But I realized the running a successful business wasn’t their plan.

Hogg is a member of the gig generation. His tech CEO partner is of the “create a startup and sell it” mindset.

Hogg loves the limelight and controversy.  He thrives on it.

This was a grift.  This was always a grift.

Get a bunch of controversy going.  Collect money from Leftist investors who want to virtue signal their hatred of My Pillow.

Fake a business plan.

Walk away richer and with more TV appearances than before.

Everyone forgets about the actual pillows and none of the woke investors want to sue the child gun violence survivor professional victim David Hogg.

The business fails as a business.

It succeeded mightily as a scam for 15 more minutes of fame and a bunch of quick cash.

I’m not a fan of Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green, but this is not about her.  This is about another member of Congress, the non-voting delegate from Guam, marching Guam National Guardsmen to her office in a clearly political act.

A politician leading uniformed troops in a political display against an opponent, that should raise some red flags.

Sure, they weren’t armed, this time.

But once this is allowed to happen you know it will only get more aggressive next time.

This is how civil wars start.  That is not an understatement.

The gravity of this should not be ignored.
