PHILADELPHIA (December 11, 2025) – Today, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals granted full-court review in Firearms Policy Coalition’s (FPC) Koons v. Platkin challenge to New Jersey’s sweeping post-Bruen carry restrictions. This significant development ensures that the entire court will evaluate the state’s unconstitutional scheme under the proper historical and constitutional framework. The prior panel’s flawed decision—upholding key elements of the law—has been vacated, restoring the case to a posture where New Jersey’s unlawful policies can be fully and fairly scrutinized. FPC remains steadfast in pursuing meaningful relief for all who seek to exercise their right to bear arms in New Jersey and nationwide.

Will Republicans ask him? How about Ranking Member Chuck Grassley? [More]

I'm going to end up sending questions about infringements by "AFT" to Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans to put to the nominee while he's under oath, so feel free to leave your own in the article's "Comments" section.

I have two articles in this month's issue, on sale now at discerning newsstands throughout the Republic. [More]

I'm not resuming regular blogging because of the unresolved censorship issue but will continue to promote my work here as I prepare a new landing site.

Two recent appearances:

• The Michael Dukes Show, April 8.
• Armed American Radio's Daily Defense, April 12.

I'm not resuming regular blogging because of the unresolved censorship issue but will continue to promote my work here as I prepare a new landing site.

I'll be joining host Mark Walters at 4 pm Eastern to talk Biden and more.  Listen, watch or find a station near you at the Armed American Radio website.

Perhaps if he was better at picking them in the first place, he wouldn’t need to end up angrily attacking so many he had nothing but high praise for in the beginning. [More]What does "winning" mean if you end up losing?

In other words, police should be “Les Seules” armed and authorized to use force to stop criminal attacks, even in the home. [More]

You have to wonder at what point some of these people will get tired of surrendering and start rolling out the tumbrels again...

I'll be joining up with Michael Dukes this morning to talk about the Google leviathan "unpublishing" my work.  Hopefully, this notice won't be taken down as a "community standards" violation before then.

Go to the show website to find an Alaska station or to listen online. They'll be calling me at 10:24 Eastern.

And no, this post doesn't mean the blog is back for business as usual. It means I'll continue using it for announcements promoting my stuff until I can settle in a new home, something I should have some time to seriously look into over the weekend.

“As such, they have an interest in the outcome of this case because a positive ruling in the instant matter will assist them in their efforts to have their lawful property returned to them in the future and will help guide other courts in reaching the correct conclusion which is that bumpstocks are not machineguns,” the brief elaborates.

I'm not resuming this blog per normal practices-- as I said in the last post, I will still use it to promote my articles, assuming this one doesn't get "unpublished" as well.  In the meantime, I will be using this weekend to scout out a new home.

It linked to "blue check" correspondent Paul Bedard's Washington Examiner report on a peer-reviewed study by John Lott published in the journal Public Choice. 
Incidentally, its link appears on a general Google search including on Google Cache, but is suppressed in a "News" search, with an article attacking Lott's work appearing at the top of the page by two "researchers" of undisclosed political affinity that my money says will turn out to be sympathetic to Democrats. 

My suspicion is an algorithm went searching to erase it from existence. If this is all it takes to get booted from a personal opinion and commentary blog, everything I post here is subject to being undone and Blogger is no longer a viable platform to publish on. Either that or some troll saboteur complained, and the same applies. Until I see if I can get this reversed, I'm going to need to limit activity here to promoting my articles as I search for a reliable repository for my work.
Remember when Facebook booted a post for wishing everyone a contemplative Bill of Rights Day?
UPDATE:

Democratic Rep. Ami Bera of California says he was attacked by a rogue fox outside the US Capitol. [More]

Maybe if he wasn't an anti-gun fanatic he could have done something about that.

The thought strikes: That fox ended up being a bigger danger to a member of Congress than every one of the Jan. 6 "insurrectionists."

Then again, so did this Democrat.
