I’ve gone over the alleged — but not published — Notice of Proposed Rule-Making. While this version clearly shows lineage with the earlier leaked draft, some of the more psychotic elements are gone, but replaced with vague, arbitrary arrogations of Congressional authority. It’s almost as if they read my remarks on their draft.

The ATF gives the docket number for this as “ATF 2021R-05.” When this finally appears on Regulations.gov, I intend to file the following comment.

COMMENT

The ATF takes note of the fact that existing law, as written and passed by Congress, does not define “firearm” to include many types of implements including AR-pattern arms with separate upper and lower “receivers,” (split-frame) semiautomatic handguns with separate slides and “frames,” or striker-fired implements. The Notice of Proposed Rule-Making pretends that these are recent innovations that Congress could not have envisioned, and thus the ATF must broaden the language of the law to catch up. I have multiple objections to this. Continue reading Commenting on the ATF’s NPRM Redefining “Firearm”

“Dick Cheney…..take your daughter hunting.“

For those with short memories, he’s referencing this.

The Department of Justice “issued a notice of proposed rulemaking” on Friday afternoon — but of course, when few will notice. This is the one TZP recently warned was coming.

Except.. not really. It has not been published in the Federal Register/Regulations.gov as of 5/7/2021, 5:00PM ET. A search on neither “firearm” nor “Docket No. ATF 2021R-05” returns any docket. Therefore, despite the DOJ’s claim, commenting online is not possible yet.

You may download a copy of what the ATF purports to be the NPRM from their website. I have done so, and will analyze it to see where and how it differs from the leaked draft I previously picked apart. But this is my normal quitting time for the day, so I’m not sure quickly I’ll make headway

The cat’s, I mean.

And they’re refusing to give it to the auditors.

In his interview with OAN Ken Bennett said Dominion is refusing to comply with the State Senate’s subpoena and is hiding the second password for their machines.

Anyone familiar with AZ law on refusing to comply with a Senate subpoena? Seems like a crime to me. Let me do a little searching…

Added: There it is.

41-1154. Disobedience of legislative subpoena or refusal to give testimony or produce papers; violation; classification

A person who, being subpoenaed to attend as a witness before either house of the legislature or any committee thereof, knowingly fails or refuses without lawful excuse to attend pursuant to such subpoena, or being present knowingly refuses to be sworn or to answer any material or proper question, or to produce, upon ON reasonable notice, any material and relevant books, papers or documents in his THE PERSON’S possession or under his THE PERSON’S control, is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor AND IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER FINE AUTHORIZED BY LAW, THE COURT MAY IMPOSE A FINE OF $1,000 PER DAY.

13-707. Misdemeanors; sentencing

A. A sentence of imprisonment for a misdemeanor shall be for a definite term to be served other than a place within custody of the state department of corrections. The court shall fix the term of imprisonment within the following maximum limitations:

1. For a class 1 misdemeanor, six months.

2. For a class 2 misdemeanor, four months.

3. For a class 3 misdemeanor, thirty days.

The lawyers should have expensive fun arguing this one.

I was going to ignore this one because it’s just too easy. But it does explain a lot.

I figure that means she was a failed abortion attempt which resulted in fetal brain damage.

There’s a guy in a stand-off with police near here.

One outlet says he’s on the Interstate. Another says he’s on an intersecting highway. News4Jax also says the highway; but their reporting is so bad that I dropped them from my bookmarks more than a year ago.

All three agree that he’s barricaded in a vehicle. One says he’s naked (News4Jax). No photos.

News4Jax also says he deliberately crashed his car (others only say “vehicle”) into a ditch. No one else is mentioning a crash.

—-

Lessee, FCN now says he’s at the truck stop, not the road. BN still says side of the road. News4Jax: still in the ditch.
—-

Ah, FCN has now figured out that the guy is on the highway. But while the other two says this is near a Love’s truck stop, FCN says Pilot, and they’ve dropped any mention of an alleged bomb.

News4Jax still says he’s naked. No one else does.

FCN: “truck”
BN: “vehicle”
News4Jax: “car”

—-
FCN: “vehicle” again, and the stand-off continues at the truck stop
BN: suspect in custody (and note that this report is older than FCN update), and it was on the side of the road
News4Jax: in custody, it was in the ditch, and he was still naked

—
FCN: now he was naked, and in custody,cops fired two shots
BN: no change the vehicle is now an SUV, and no explosives found, and the cops had offered him underwear
News4Jax: cops fired two “gas cartridges: and tased him,

Added: I figure when all’s said and done, the truth ‘ll turn out to be that a shirtless guy pulled over, got out and told bystanders he stopped because, “Man, I’m so bombed.” In light of the diverging vehicle reports, it’s probably gonna be a motorcycle.

So long as I’m on the subject of Maricopa’s effed up election systems, let me raise another point. The vote auditors wanted the admin password for the system so that they could look at access logs, installed software, and the like. Perfectly normal, and necessary to do a proper security audit. Maricopa told them they don’t have admin passwords.

Think about that.

I said, “Perfectly normal, and necessary to do a proper security audit.” If Maricopa County doesn’t have admin access to its own system, how was anyone able to properly inspect and certify the machines as required by federal law?

It’s really too bad we no longer have a functional and honest criminal justice system. Because if we did, these people would already be under felony indictments based on their own statements.
