New Jersey's ban on AR-15 rifles is unconstitutional, federal judge says
New Jersey’s ban on the AR-15 rifle is unconstitutional, but the state’s cap on magazines over 10 rounds passes constitutional muster

View More“Prosecutors could exercise their discretion to prosecute charges that are likely to protect public safety,” Khandelwal wrote in a letter obtained by “The Jason Rantz Show” on KTTH. “For instance, there is no evidence to suggest that arrest and prosecution for property crimes deters individuals from engaging in crimes,”
Khandelwal recommended the county implement “programs involving cash transfers” because they “have been shown to decrease crime — particularly property crimes.”
“Given that most cases filed by the PAO involve non-violent crime, the county could simply choose to invest in universal basic income as a crime prevention strategy,” she wrote. “In addition to being more effective, such an approach would also avoid the racial disproportionality of the criminal legal system.”
Let's PAY the criminals and leave Washington's law-abiding citizens to suffer the consequences of blatant abdication of duty on multiple levels. Insanity.

With nearly a 1/3 of American cities NOT reporting crime data to the FBI, the numbers do not reflect the reality of crime in our nation. Many of those non-reporting cities also happen to be led by the loudest voices calling for gun control and bans, and defunding the police, all while adopting criminal-friendly policies. These factors collectively show politics in action with anti-gun politicians demanding 100 percent gun control with 2/3 of the crime data. #PowerGrab
Gun control is about just that... CONTROL.

One key aspect of the mature minor law is the consideration of the minor's ability to understand the risks and benefits of the treatment in question. This is often determined on a case-by-case basis, taking into account factors such as the minor's age, maturity level, and ability to comprehend the consequences of their decisions.
If children need assistance from their parents to cross the street safely or make some Top Ramen, shouldn’t it be clear that they are not able to make an informed decision about changing their gender? These procedures are causing irreparable damage and massive long-term implications that children cannot, and do not understand. That is a fact.
This isn’t a hard concept to understand for most of the population but this doctrine should be at the forefront of protecting children who lack the ability to consent from making drastic and permanent changes to their physical body and mental wellness. THIS is why we fight.

This case was brought, erroneously, in King County as the provision of our state law dictates that "suits against public officers challenging actions done 'in virtue of his or her office' must be filed only in the county where the case, or some part thereof, arose."

Our motion to transfer venue back to Grant County was denied without prejudice. The State claimed that our Motion to Transfer Venue was "untimely" (too late) while the judge felt it was "premature" and could be brought up at a later date if it survives dispositive motions.
While we are disappointed that we did not prevail this time, we have a good shot at prevailing if this goes to trial. Overall, there are key points that are in our favor that we will discuss in our Substack hitting inboxes TONIGHT!
As this case moves forward, we are asking for donations to fund the legal work required to crush the attack on your second amendment rights. Thank you!

Similar to our other medical freedom cases, this case really comes down to the protection of free speech, a Constitutionally-guaranteed right of the People. Physicians are not excluded from this foundational right, and the actions of the Washington Medical Commission are a direct attack on Dr. Wilkinson’s right to free speech as well as his patients’ right to receive speech.
🚩Does the Commission have the authority to regulate Dr. Wilkinson’s speech pursuant to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution?
🚩Does RCW 18.130.160 authorize the Commission to order an open-ended physical, cognitive and psychological examination as a disciplinary measure?
🚩Did the Commission retaliate against Dr. Wilkinson for his speech?

This case is really about whether an Agency has the power to regulate speech and prescribe punishment for speech it disagrees with. Interestingly, much of the Position Statement issued by the WMC is based on information/research that we now know to be questionable, at best.
It is imperative that ALL people have the ability to speak freely, as our First Amendment guarantees. When it comes to medical care, this right becomes all the more crucial as Physicians should be free to research and communicate that information to the public; information that is not hindered by the pushing forth of an approved narrative.
Let Physicians speak freely!

Our hearing in WA v. Guardian Arms, challenging SHB1240 (so-called "assault weapons" ban) is coming up on July 12th!
Case Rewind: In February 2024, we were denied a Direct Discretionary Review which we requested on the basis of the unconstitutionality of the law. Currently, this case is in discovery and the state has requested expert declarations.
These cases are lengthy and expensive but are well worth it to protect our freedoms for generations to come. Thomas Jefferson was right on the money when he stated “the price of liberty is eternal vigilance.”

The headlines are shocking - "Firearms are the number one killer of children in America." This argument from gun control advocates does exactly what it is supposed to do - makes the issue about protecting guns vs. protecting children - immediately instilling in the minds of people that those who support the second amendment don't care about kids. It's a deeply polarizing and effective LIE.
It IS 100% a LIE.
