Turning Blue

Gotta say that I never thought I’d see the day when Virginia turned into Illinois:

A bill banning AR-15s and other popular semiautomatic rifles, as well as magazines holding more than 15 rounds of ammunition, cleared the Virginia legislature Monday and is headed to Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s (D) desk.

The legislation, SB 749, states that “importing, selling, purchasing, or transferring a prohibited firearm would be a Class 1 misdemeanor,” Ammoland News noted.

It also “restricts the sale or transfer of certain large-capacity magazines defined in the statute.”

WRIC reported that SB 749 also bans a number of semiautomatic shotguns and certain semiautomatic, centerfire pistols.

SB 749 takes effect July 1, 2026.

So to sum up:  the party of Thomas Jefferson has passed an un-Constitutional gun control law in Jefferson’s home state.

Note that this does not effect existing owners of said Eeeevil Implements Of Death:

If you have an assault rifle, you can keep it. If you have an assault pistol, if you have one of these pistols with a silencer on it and a pistol grip in the front. A really big, big pistol…you want to have one with a telescope on it or lasers or whatever else you want, that’s okay. You just can’t buy a new one and you can’t sell it to anybody. If you want to have a magazine with more than 15 bullets, you can keep that, too. You just can’t buy a new one. — Virginia Senate Majority Leader Scott Surovell

…but I bet that whatever the numbers of those AR owners are at present, there are going to be quite a few more before July 1, 2026.

And in the future, there’s going to be some serious traffic congestion every time there’s a gun show in West Virginia or North Carolina.

Hey, it’s the Will Of The People, right?  After all, Virginians voted this bunch of scumbags into office.

Other gun-friendly states need to take note, especially the ones recently infested with refugees from California, Illinois and New York.

Normally, I say something very rude at this point, but I’m off to the range.  I think I’ll shoot off some “high-capacity” mags with my AR-15, just for the hell of it.

As y’all know, it was with considerable misgivings that I got the poodleshooter;  but as more and more people seem to want to ban them, I’m kinda glad that I did. if for no other reason than:

Ammo’s cheap, too.

Ohhh We’re Fwightened

Here’s an interesting one:

German security officials have warned that the conflict between the United States, Israel and the Islamist regime in Iran could result in terror blowback across Europe.

Specifically:

The chairman of the Bundestag’s Parliamentary Control Committee (PKGr), which oversees Germany’s intelligence services, warned on Sunday in comments reported by Die Welt that “retaliatory measures” by pro-Iranian regime terrorists, including “sleeper cells in Europe”, could not be ruled out.

Perhaps if you hadn’t thrown your borders open to all and sundry, there wouldn’t now be any Islamic “sleeper cells” in Europe for you to be afwwwwaid of.  (Oh wait… stopping wholesale immigration would have been regarded as “rayyyycisssss” — or however you say that in Krautspeak.)

Well, your own EU governments lit the fire under the cauldron in which you were all playing so nicely together, so enjoy the burning.  You fucking incompetent and treasonous assholes.

At least one would hope that European “security forces” (ha!) will finally have a real bunch of terrorists to hunt down and control, instead of concentrating all their effort and budgets on the (non-existent) threats from “the Right” and “fascists”.  Yeah, don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

Say hello to the real fascists, Euroweenies.  Couldn’t have happened to a nicer bunch of statists.

Quote Of The Day

Talking about this little adventure:

We need a total immigration moratorium and a complete ban on all African, Islamic, and Third World migration to this country forever. — Christian Heiens

Amen to that.

And I don’t care about how !raycissss! this sounds.  What’s at stake is the future of our civilization and our national principles — and I’m not exaggerating, either.

Yeah, Right

From Russki Strongman-In-Chief:

Russian President Vladimir Putin condemned the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Sunday, calling the death, which came amid strikes from Israel and the U.S., a “cynical violation” of norms.

Uh huh. Let’s talk about “cynicism” for a moment.  Lessee:

  • Murdering dozens, perhaps hundreds of political opponents and even jailing people who dare to criticized his rule:  A-OK
  • Murdering said critics and opponents even when they’re living outside Russia in places like the UK:  A-OK
  • Executing generals and other military officers who failed to conquer Ukraine in three days, as promised, taking instead over three years (and still failing):  very much A-OK

But killing the head of a terrorist state which has financed and encouraged terrorist acts all over the civilized (and not-so-civilized) world for the past half-century… well wait a minute, that’s just beyond the pale, you know.

Fuck you, Vlad, and that fucking horse you rode in on.

Just be thankful there wasn’t a rocket sent in your direction.  (It could still happen.)

Nothing Wrong There

Via Insty, this:

Two things to note here: firstly, Keith Self is my local guy and yes, I’m going to vote for him every chance I get.

Secondly, that fucking Muslim-only  EPCOT  EPIC City was planned to be built in Keith Self’s district (or very close to it — the maps are a little unclear).  Fortunately, that festering shithole was nuked by our worthy TxGov* but the assholes have renamed the thing and keep pushing it forward.  Self and Roy’s caucus would (I hope) stop it dead, forever.

Like I said, we need an asterisk in the First Amendment, and this is a good start.  It’s not enough just to trust the Constitution to protect our republic — see countless Second Amendment transgressions for examples — we need to start doing what the Texas constitution does and put in measures that actively resist and ban bullshit like shari’a.


*Yeah, Greg Abbott is also going to get my vote every time.
