Americans Resist Government Overreach, Defiant Against Intrusion—Refusing to Be Owned, Pledging to Remain Unyielding.

Sharing is Caring!

Americans push back against government overreach with some real defiance.

Bring a gun to a knife fight: For the first time since 2020, when state and federal governments nationwide decided the Constitution and Bill of Rights no longer applied to them and began imposing a whole range of abusive illegal regulations and lockdowns and mandates and blacklisting on Americans everywhere, we are now finally beginning to see some real push back from ordinary people, in ways that leave these tinpot dictators no choice but to back down.

Two examples in the past week. First in St. Louis the city government (controlled by radical leftist Democrats) decided it was time to institute a new panic over COVID, likely to give them the ability to once again easily manipulate voting in 2024, by instituting a new city mask mandate. Though it only recommended strongly that everyone wear masks everywhere, its director of health Matifadza Hlatshwayo Davis said that masks were required of government employees if they were indoors or in a car with another person.

Davis’s problem was that, unlike 2020, almost no one obeyed her demands.

[W]hile many employees at City Hall strapped the masks back on, many visitors did not, raising questions about the effectiveness of the new policy. Of the 10 people sitting outside the city assessor’s office around 3 p.m., for instance, just two people were wearing masks: an older woman and an assessor’s office employee.

 

THEY’D BETTER LEARN TO SWIM, OR THEY’LL SINK LIKE A STONE:  In Stunning About-Face, 9th Circuit Prohibits California from Banning Concealed Carry in Public Places.

As we reported in October, several gun owners filed suit against the State of California, which was set to enact sweeping gun control legislation banning concealed carry of firearms in almost every public location in California: Lawsuit Challenges California’s Ban on Firearms in ‘Sensitive Places’ Like Stadiums, Public Transit and a ‘No-Carry Default Provision’ for Private Property.

As we explained:

A lawsuit filed on September 26 on behalf of several California gun owners challenges the state’s ban on concealed carry in “sensitive places” and private property generally. The plaintiffs, concealed carry license holders, seek an injunction allowing them to carry at the challenged locations.

The California Attorney General’s Office is “reviewing the complaint” and reaffirmed its “commit[ment] to passing and defending commonsense, constitutional gun laws that will save lives” in response to questions from Legal Insurrection.

The ban covers much public property, including parks and mass transit, as well as casinos, stadiums, and arenas. The ban also has a “no-carry default provision that prohibits carry on all private commercial property open to the public,” unless the proprietor expressly consents to on-property carry.
