The Declaration for Baird v,. Becerra.
Mark Baird et al v Becarra alleges deprivation of rights referring directly to California’s defacto (licensing) and statutory bans on the open carry of a loaded weapon. The complaint states that the Second Amendment gives the citizen nothing except freedom from government interference. The Second Amendment simply codifies the pre-constitutional, Natural Right, of every lawful person to defend ones self, family, community, state and nation.
Please download and read. This is as close as Perry Mason moment as it gets. The defense filed briefs misquoting and even what appears to be creating false quotes from history and old laws, and it gets called not only on that but the opposite being true.
Dear Fellow Gun Bloggers: Read and remember all the good stuff because you will use it later. A lot.
Don’t worry fam, they have it covered.
Although the full House will return to D.C. on Sept. 9, the House Judiciary Committee will return a few days early to deal with gun control. In the aftermath of the mass killings in El Paso, Texas, Gilroy, California, and Dayton, Ohio, there is renewed urgency to “do something.”
CARNO: A Big Push For Gun Control Is Coming To Congress In September
I am not worried at all. I know that we will see Dudley Brown and Erich Pratt in Congress hearings (with tens of thousands of Chest Thumpers® outside the Capitol backing them up) browbeating Senators and Representatives into not only not advance any new gun laws but to finally issue a free machine gun and free ammo to every American that wants one.
And finally we can dismiss the scourge of the NRA and live ever so happily among the unicorns.

Why I don’t fear A.I. doomsday
Computers are programed by humans and will automatically do stupid stuff which will be their undoing. Basically the cybernetic version of “Hold my beer and watch this.”
If here is a segment of human interaction that has been prodded, programed and advanced for AI is shopping. And they still can screw it up royally. The example is this email I got this morning from Amazon:
Those who know me would laugh themselves into tears. I am the last guy you would see climbing on a boat and going out in the high seas. I probably hold the record of being the only guy who got seasick on a docked cruise ship during a very nice and calm day.
Not only it was a shock to me how easy I can spew chunks on a marine vessel, but the sea itself has tried to kill me three times via rip currents, the last one also almost taking my beloved wife.
So where on Earth did the algorithms of Amazon come up with the idea that I may need marine emergency shit when I am the guy who has not gotten his feet wet in the ocean in 24 years?
Computers are stupid, just like the humans.
The folly of setting expectations by Media criticism
J. Kb. covered Vice’s put down of David Chapelle’s latest stand up show: Sticks and Stones. And since we are doing the One Month Out of Year Netflix Binge, I decided to watch it last night.
Meh.
I watched 30 minutes and other than the LGBTQ car sketch that managed to make me chuckle once or twice, I simply found the material actually not daring. I turned it off and proceeded to do other stuff.
I don’t know. I think I was expecting a 21st version of Richard Prior’s Live on the Sunset Strip or Eddie Murphy’s Delirious, but what I got was Chapelle’s at Chuck E. Cheese.
