Color me shocked. I mean from the administration of the man who said, take the guns first and due process later.
Take the guns first - Trump
Whoever convinced his following that the man only jokes and never does anything honestly deserves some kind of reverse peace prize. Like the Oppenheimer Award or some shit.
He'll do it, blame Democrats, and his (R)etarded followers will eat it up.
Which gun rights group are they referring to?
(b) individuals and federally licensed firearms importers, manufacturers, dealers or collectors who were members of Firearms Policy Coalition, Inc., Second Amendment Foundation, or Louisiana Shooting Association at the time this action was filed on November 6, 2020

Oh, thank you- I promise I wasn't blowing smoke, I really was going to get that. 💀
I'll have to take a deeper dive, but as I've seen some of the actual right-winger pages posting statements on it I'm guessing that it isn't just those dangerous body dysmorphia folks.
Before this dictatorship is over they will try to disarm the American population.
Which is, per se, not a bad idea.
Except for the fact that we've been collecting guns for 250 years to prevent this exact scenario. I support the right to own a gun more than I support actual gun ownership, if that makes any sense. A government SHOULD fear its people but I worry that ship sailed a hundred years ago.
Currently they don't fear citizens with guns; they're fishing for them, trying to bait them into violence so they can use that to sell the rest of the public on martial law and mass arrests.
It's a horrible idea both from an ethical standpoint and from the practical standpoint
no only parts
Every time I think of our current dictatorship I look forward to 2028 when it's over.
But just look how much damage he's done in only a the first few months, I dread to imagine how much he's going to destroy in the next 3 years.
At this point we're all just counting on his health failing any day now, the sooner the better.
And hoping his successors come back to their right minds and restore USA back to land of the free, American Dream and all that.
You expect 2028 to be...better?
Nah dude. It's going to get worse before it gets worse..
I don't think you can make that prediction. Its quite possible things will become tepidly bearable again... before getting much much worse than it is now.
Everything is steadily getting worse in every category. That means that today is both the worst day in American history, and the best day we'll ever have again. I absolutely promise you that there will come a day when you dream of having the problems we have now.
EXACTLY why I never joined a damned gun group. Also why I'm not even trying to find leftist groups.
This is also another clear example as to why it is so difficult to organize the left. 🫠💀
I want to join the People Who Hate People party, but it's hard to get a meeting together.
I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.
Srsly Barbie, you’re overdue for some MAGA facework. Tbh your job isn’t secure.
Neck work needed
A few key points tho:
This reads to me more like a judge made a call based on SCotUS’s recent goofy rulings around standing and relief, instead of a deliberate end-run registry.
Yeah, but Big Balls accidentally deleted the files when he was on the toilet, trying to post a meme.
The defendant has the right to identify their accuser…
It’s just that in this case, the defendant is the ATF because they were overstepping their authority.
And now the ATF will have at least a partial list of gun owners. I guess the intent is to provide relief to these and only these plaintiffs? i.e. the ATF can restrict the sale of firearms to individuals aged 18-20 with anyone NOT named on that list?
Their accuser is the organization. That doesn’t give them the right to know every member of the organization. That’s a really bad precedent.
Yeah, I’m not a lawyer… I’m just talking out loud.
Lots of loud people demanding she be fired and of course the ATF is being flamed a good amount too (just from what I can see). I appreciate your breakdown on this, some interesting ways it can unfold that I wouldn't have known to watch for. 🤘🏽🖤
lol, yeah. I’m totally not a lawyer, but I do believe that in criminal cases that’s how it works between the defendant and the plaintiff. The defendant gets to face their accuser.
Now, this might be a civil suit, and I don’t know how that relates or changes in civil law. This seems like a civil tort case.
Here's a de-X-ified link to the tweet: https://nitter.net/allenanalysis/status/1977059498800873767
If a human couldn't be bothered to write it, I can't be bothered to read it.
TLDR; git gud dipshit
That certainly is a lot of water you wasted for something no one is going to read.
