Election Results
John discusses the pre-election expectations and how they were disrupted. The reaction that night, "this is amazing!". Even though he didn't think that Trump was the best choice for President, the defeat of Clinton provided significant relief.
Where are we going from here?
Mike leads us into the discussion of what the Trump victory means for us in the 2A movement. There are some policies that have been proposed on his website and have been covered at Bearing Arms and Reagan Coalition. In Honor of Veterans Day we will start at the last thing mentioned –
- Lifting the ban of firearms carried on military installations and recruiting stations!
National Right to carry
No more firearm or magazine bans and he will take a page from NSSF and fix NICS
Work at fixing mental health issues related to firearms
Strengthen self defense laws to assist those defending themselves from criminals from persecution
Stated that there will be no new guns laws but enforcement of the current laws – such a turnaround from the current revolving door policy we have now!
Recognized that the 2nd Amendment precludes the Bill of Rights and Constitution and they only recognize it being a right.
Words of Wisdom:
“If the guy is putting his hands on you and you can get the gun out, the first thing your muzzle is going to cross is his groin, regardless of gender, I’d shoot them right square in the crotch.” – Clint Smith (Thunder Ranch) –
Report that VA Denying 2A Rights without Due Process–
Joshua Prince reports that he has a client who was denied by NICS due to a listing provided by VA. We are familiar with the notion that VA and SSA were interested in denying those with a fiduciary assigned, this person still managed their own affairs.
Killing the Culture of Lawful Gun Ownership in New Jersey
The NJ Legislature passes resolution that is intended to prohibit changes to the definition of Justifiable Need. This isn't surprising as they have been pursing this for months.
They have also introduced a bill to require FID, PPP, or Carry Permit to allow temporary transfer of a firearm. This measure is similar to the structure of "comprehensive background check" measures that Bloomberg groups are seeking in other states. However here in New Jersey it is even worse. While other states measures would be satisfied with a NICS check, this would require the, often months long, FID/PPP process.
If anything appears to be designed to kill gun culture, this is it

"Remember, when every second counts the police are just minutes away." – Anonymous
Manville Student gets the boot reportedly over a anti-guncontrol video he created.
Even though the police don't appear to see any danger from him, particularly over this video, the school superintendent is saying the family has made unfair personal attacks. Not to mention Child Services even showed up to their home after the police cleared him. Mike says that he wants these school administrators held responsible for their conduct and John agrees.
Since recording, we have learned that Ginny Simone of NRA TV looked into the situation and produced a report.
Federal Court Strikes down many gun control schemes
This ruling was mixed with some schemes upheld and others struck down. We think it is important to remember that even DOJ has produced reports that show no need for new gun laws.
