@General_Raptor@MorosKostas This is even worse now after the Canadian handgun freeze. Afaik no privately owned handguns are allowed into the country now, certainly not just for travel.

Many such cases
Greg Bovino is openly threatening free speech.
He says if you call federal agents “kidnappers” or “Gestapo,” there will be “consequences.”
That’s intimidation.
@DuneFan08021947@Type07Safety Even if the point is "don't interfere with law enforcement, that's dumb" it doesn't give them license to kill him. Even if he started the physical altercation (he didn't, watch the videos), they had him pepper sprayed and on the ground restrained by the time they executed him.
@sethrotull372@Type07Safety This happened in Minnesota. Hochul is governor of New York.
You're using NY law buzzwords as though they apply universally to every situation in every state.
Learn how laws work and which ones apply before you participate in discussions like this.
@Type07Safety Lots of his work is flawed anyway, like using per capita comparisons to compare US mass shooting deaths to a much smaller Nordic country (maybe Norway, but I can't remember specifically) to make it seem like Norway has a comparable mass shooting epidemic to the USA. They've had 1
WHEN ITS A FREE TRIAL FOR A PRODUCT, LET IT ACTUALLY BE A FREE TRIAL. DONT FORCE ME TO ENTER MY CREDIT CARD INFO SO YOU HOPE I FORGET AND TAKE MY MONEY.
Tonight, Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.
Let me get this straight:
Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds?
Release the Epstein files.
They get so much mileage out of these same pictures, which I've seen posted again and again for several years (see also: Massie family Christmas picture with the guns)
But in reality, collectors like this are probably very close to statistical zeroes when it comes to being criminal threats. Their guns sit in safes all day. They also tend to live in places with very little crime.
This is a cultural dispute more than anything. People mad at these pictures don't seriously contend there is a significant threat coming from gun collectors. They just see these people as political enemies and want to shame them whenever some mass shooting is in the news.
@Insurgentum@TXGunRights@grok A machine gun manufactured after May 19th, 1986 is illegal for any civilian without an FFL/SOT to possess anywhere in the United States. That is a *federal* law.
@romanov13649 @VorpalDerringer This is not true. A form 4 is for a transfer between any two entities where one of them is not either a government entity or an FFL license holder.
A private citizen transferring a suppressor directly to another private citizen still used a form 4.
@CastiglioneFrnk @chickenwillie76@HawleyMO If you're this ignorant of firearms laws, you shouldn't be making assertions about whether someone's gun is legal or not.
Does anyone at all understand the case that overturned Chevron? Because the facts there are pretty damning and show why federal bureaucrats can't be trusted to interpret and enforce their own rules.
Basically, the really short version of what happened was this -- a family fishing business sued because they were paying $700 a day to have federal regulators oversee their business. The statute governing the National Marine Fisheries Service says nothing about making their business pay for the cost of their own regulation, and it was just decided along the way that businesses would have to foot the bill for the NMFS' own enforcement.
Because of Chevron, which grants overly broad powers to bureaucrats to interpret the law, the idea that federal agencies could essentially make their own regs and make people pay if they didn't have the budget to enforce them was tolerated.
That's insane. Imagine if your local cops decided they needed a bigger budget -- gotta keep the town safe! -- and started stopping your car at checkpoints all over town to make you pay up. And the mayor and no one else in town could stop them from doing this because only the cops were allowed to determine what was legal.
That's essentially what the feds were doing here under Chevron. It was outrageous, and the fisheries service's abuse of power was hardly an isolated instance of federal overreach defended by Chevron.
It was corrupt and needed to end.
