As Saul Cornell points out, many states had laws requiring people to buy individually owned military weapons. I tend to agree with him that a true originalist understanding of the second amendment would see most people required to buy a personal assault weapon to keep in their home.

The first time I watched Dante's Peak as an adult I realized why I used to have nightmares about someone in my family having to jump into an acid lake to pull a boat ashore. I have no memory of seeing that scene, I think I must have caught a glimpse of it on TV or something.

What if we expand the court but the existing court rules them unconstitutional and then we have to appoint a third Supreme Court to adjudicate but the two existing supreme courts rule them unconstitutional.

Ellison's office tried to argue that owning a gun made before 1968 without a serial number was a felony offense. Then he refused to say how to get them serialized because he was worried ghost gun owners would serialize their guns and make them legal.

"While the investigation did notsubstantiate a determination that the touch was sexual in nature, the investigation did/substantiate the touch was unwelcome and caused considerable discomfort..." What's the standard for determining if touching your coworker's thigh is sexual or not?

One of the ways activists were able to pass bold bipartisan zoning reform in Montana was by selling it to Republicsn lawmakers as being about property rights. montanafreepress.org/2023/05/10/h...

The president of The Trace is John Feinblatt, the architect of Michael Bloomberg's stop and frisk policy. I appreciate the symmetry in a newsroom reporting on gun owners being treated as an oppressed minority run by a guy whose signature accomplishment was oppressing minorities in search of guns.

Will you commit to including cops in any gun safety bill you author or vote for? In the past you have voted to exempt ICE and Minneapolis PD from gun safety bills.

I grew up in a town whose only station was the country AM station KPOK (after cowpoke). I tear up a little bit when I hear that Red Sovine song about the ghost trucker who gave his life to save a bus load of kids. I listen to a decent amount of modern country. I was only vaguely aware of this song.

European countries should band together to fund open source alternatives to big American Tech Company products. Come to think of it, President Ocasio-Cortez should do the same when she revives the WPA.

I'm not representing the policies that passed, I'm representing the policies Tabke coauthored. If he coauthored an anti-abortion bill that died in committee, would you tell people to forget about it? I don't see any point in forgetting that he coauthored a bill to allow racist cops on our homes.

Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 26/09/2026
So you have to store the gun in your home, and you have to agree to allow the police to inspect your home. Hard to see how they could inspect without entering. No stated limit on when or how often the inspections your are required to agree to will happen.

Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
Right, but but Tabke coauthored HF 3433. You don't get a pass for authoring a bill to force racist cops into the homes of gun owners of color just because the bill died in committee.
100
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
You can decide for yourself whether minority gun owners should be subject to home inspections by racist cops, but the bill as coauthored by Tabke definitely would have done that.

Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
They weren't able to pass it, thank goodness. What do you think I have wrong about the legislation? It's all in there, the ban on threaded barrels like Pretti's gun, the inspection requirements, the exemption for police.
100
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
And I think that people who are serious about the occupation should not vote to allow racist cops into the homes of people being targeted by ICE, as Tabke did.
100
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
Sorry, I was saying that in the middle of the occupation he tried to pass a bill that would have required lots of the people of the ethnicities being targeted by ICE to allow cops into their home without a warrant.
100
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
(And he made sure to include an explicit exception for ICE and MPD) IMO, someone taking the federal occupation seriously should not be writing bills inviting cops into the homes of gun owners of color without a warrant.
100
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
Yep, found it. Tabke coauthored a bill banning the sale of many guns, including pistols with a threaded barrel like Alex Pretti's. And it would've required people who already had those guns to allow cops into their homes with no warrant to check their gun storage, with no limit on when or how often.

Isn't Tabke one of those who signed onto a bill that would have banned sales of Alex Pretti's gun while including an exemption for local police and ICE? And included a requirement that you have to let cops search your home without a warrant of you already own a similar gun?

The Russian Revolution is the original vibecession. They were emancipated from serfdom and their grain yields were were increasing!

Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 25/09/2026
I wonder how closely economic satisfaction tracked actual income in the lead up to the Russian Revolution. Did former serfs show the correct amount of satisfaction as their grain output rose and their debt payments were cancelled?

There are well documented issues with Kleck's numbers that make it almost certainly an overcount. But the NCVS is useless as a measure of DGUs and is not an overcount as Devin implies. It has a ton of issues with counting DGUs starting with the fact that they literally never ask about them.
000
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 24/09/2026
That's because the default language we use to describe police already tends to imply they have no agency. The initial MPD report of George Floyd's killing was headlined, "Man Dies After Medical Incident During Police Interaction".
061
Grant @serow.myatproto.social · 22/09/2026
The NCVS survey is conducted in person by someone working for the justice department. They don't ask you if you about guns at all and only ask you about self defense if you say you were the victim of a serious crime. Devin's contention that it overcounts DGUs is frankly ridiculous.
