Normally a ruling only applies in a district, as you say, but since the defendant was the ATF, and they are enjoined from enforcing those terms of the NFA, it means they are enjoined everywhere.
If there was a separate registry for the north east, that would be different, but there isn't.
Yea, that's a red line for a lot of people.
There is a loophole that can be used to remove them from office though.
The law is very clear about the dead holding office. They can only "weekend at Bernie's" things so far.
Yet.
It's inevitable that the data will be consolidated.
Even across vendors.
It's only a matter of time before someone offers a one stop shop for warehousing all that data
I think compiling public information into a condensed form can constitute doxing.
Just because your name and address are public somewhere, that doesn't mean publishing them as part of a specific list isn't doxing.
OfC, doxing isn't categorically wrong either. The sex offender registry (as...
Sounds like he didn't claim it was an accident and he falsely reported it as a crime.
So the search warrant could have been based off that.
It still seems pretty sketchy though, unless the warrant was based on investigating the crime of falsely reporting the incident.
If he had half a brain...
Well, they paid for the fight, so they deserve some compensation.
Any other manufacturers were free to sign on if they'd wanted.
It also applies to GOA members, who can buy any brand unencumbered.
AFAIK that is not limited to existing GOA members, so anyone who wants to can sign up tomorrow...
Not uneducated. Miseducated.
They have been taught many things, but many of them are wrong, and many are useless.
They have not been taught some critical skills.
So miseducated, not uneducated.
Nationwide for the federal requirement, but only applicable to suppressors sold by silencer shop, or purchased by members of a plaintiff organization like the GOA.
Does not affect state requirements, so still no-go in NY for instance.
It's a court ruling not a law with a sunset. The only thing that could make it more permanent would be if the DOJ had appealed it and SCOTUS ruled.
The catch here is that some states that don't prohibit these items require them to be federally registered in state law.
So that makes a very...
Sawzall is slow and noisy.
If you're going to do that make a specialty tool that can drop them fast and quiet.
Something like giant bolt cutters/ jaws of life sort of thing.
Although, I wonder. I hear the poles are aluminum. Might be able to just scratch them and then add some gallium...
A gunsmith has to have a Type-01 FFL. If he does you can ship directly to him and he can ship directly back to you.
If your 2nd cousin has one, then you're fine, he's a fully licensed gunsmith, and no other FFL need be involved. If he doesn't, then he's not a gun smith.
You *can* ship your...
What makes you think that surveillance system is even online to be logged into remotely ?
The cheapest and easiest way to comply is to install a local only system that records to a hard drive in the office.
If the ATF gets a warrant they can show up on site to view it, but they can't just log...
We all remember him from the "Iraqi WMD" days.
Surprised you like him, one of the early criticisms he got was for unauthorized supplying of U2 imagery to Isreal.
Also, I'd love you to point out the provision in the law that creates a difference between a cop and anyone else for shooting out tires on a parked, unoccupied vehicle.
LoL, it was his residence. He can target shoot from the kitchen window if he wants.
I agree with the tire thing being dumb. That's a terrible way to try to disable a vehicle. Too loud, it announces your presence and spoils your surprise. Could have just cut the valve stems.
He will not...
Are your dashcam or the camera in the gun store linked to a giant nationwide database that's regularly data mined ?
And this is *not* just a problem for left wing miscreants. The vast majority of people on the right don't want to live in a massive surveillance state either.
We would be...
Doesn't matter what I say, nothing will satisfy you. You're irrational about this.
I think even if Iran had finished their nuke and used it on Tel Aviv you'd still be saying "them jews had it coming".
I don't think DU is anything special for treaty purposes, it's just another heavy metal.
The outer space treaty only bans "weapons of mass destruction", so no nukes or similar. But a DU rod-from-god is basically just space based artillery. DU projectiles are widely used now and are not...
For any company you deal with, you are either the customer or the product.
How much do you pay for Google or Facebook?
If you're not paying you're not the customer.
That's what's so scary about "universal health care".
It's amazing the number of Iranian attacks and US and Isreali announcements you have to ignore to turn that into an unprovoked "sneak attack".
Hamas and Hezzbollah are Iranian proxy forces. They both make nearly daily attacks on Isreal.
And before you try to weasel your way out of them being...
For a cell phone to function at all, your cell provider has to have all of that.
If you're not comfortable with that, don't have a cell phone.
Who they share it with is something else you just have to trust them with.
It doesn't matter much how bad that is, it's not something you can change.
We trust ourselves with them, we don't trust Iran with them.
Nothing ironic about it.
Sort of like I trust myself to carry a loaded gun every day, but I wouldn't let a toddler handle one.
The original "rods from god" concept were 20' long 1' diameter tungsten rods. Each would weigh about 10 tons and hit the target at about 12,000 fps.
Basically really big really fast AP rounds.
Launch costs made it impractical as a weapon.
But that was before Starship.
They could absolutely...
So, pick your poison, use nukes or use weapons from space.
Either way a line is getting crossed.
Although the outer space treaty only actually bans "weapons of mass destruction" in space, so a kinetic energy penetrator might not violate it.
Wonder what would happen if they wanted to build a bunker buster meant to be delivered by a bomber variant of Musk's Starship.
How deep do you need to bury something to protect it from a 100 ton depleted uranium dart dropping in at Mach 25 ?
Bonus is it's a much shorter flight than the B2's...
The same way they can get away with bypassing an FFL for an interstate sale.
They are the federal government. Lots of rules just don't apply to them.
If they want a special "this is demilled to semi" exception, they can get it.
Imagine some state trooper trying to arrest an ICE agent for wearing a mask.
He'd be lucky not to end up in prison, no matter who's orders he was following.
If he called for backup, he might get a lot of people killed, starting with himself.
The SAFE act was written because they thought they could get away with it.
There's nothing conservatives could have done or not done to change that short of actual wide spread violence.
Any suggestion otherwise is like a battered woman who thinks if she just behaves well enough her boyfriend...
If it was stolen during delivery there is a paper trail that would end at that exact driver, and they know it.
If it happens during pickup, you would get everyone standing in a circle pointing at the guy on their left.
The DC is where the paper trail solidifies enough to be a real chain of...
