Our decision distributed a “Formal Complaint” for the purpose of educating the public and bringing to suspend our third hunger strike in two years does not come lightly.

On March 21, 2013 our comrade Jihad Mujahid Muhammad of the Northern California Chapter Oakland Branch was vamped on, assaulted and arrested by the Oakland pigs. A week before the incident, he launched a major watch-a-pig operation that got the whole community involved. He was letting the people know their rights when the pigs raided the neighborhood harassing everyone. In fear of the resistant spirit growing within the community the pigs had the whole spot under surveillance. Later on that week a tracking device was discovered on the car of a close associate of his from the area. This is right down the street from where, 4 years ago on this same very day, the warrior Lovelle Mixon corrected four pigs in a gun battle in response to the typical aggressive police terrorist harassment and racial profiling by the Oakland pigs, (just months after Oscar Grant was brutally murdered execution style by the BART pig Johannes Meserle). Lovelle defended his life with his life and made the ultimate sacrifice in an act of resistance.This day is a reminder in the minds of these pigs that they bleed just like we do!

Therefore, this Court declares the California statutes to be unconstitutional. 24 Plaintiffs challenge a net of interlocking statutes which impose strict criminal 25 restrictions on firearms that fall under California’s complex definition of the ignominious 26 “assault weapon.” Hearings on a preliminary injunction were consolidated with a trial on 27 the merits pursuant to F.R.C.P.

  • August 2021 Legislation/Litigation Update
    August 2021 Legislation/Litigation Update Focus Items for August: Amicus Briefs A pair of amicus briefs were filed by 176 member of the house and 25 senators to the Supreme Court in the NYSRPA v. Corlett New York concealed carry permit case. This is a major Second Amendment case seeking to find NY's carry permit laws unconstitutional. The briefs filed by the members of congress support striking down New York's carry permit restrictions. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has also filed an amicus brief to the Supreme Court requesting they strike down New York's carry permit laws. This was filed on behalf of the state of Texas in the NYSRPA v. Corlett Supreme Court Second Amendment case. Attorneys General in 22 states have filed Amicus briefs in Miller V Bonta, which is the case seeking to strike down the California Assault Weapon Ban. These state Attorneys General are opposing the state of California's action. Currently, firearms that meet the California definition of “assault weapon” are legal in 46 other states. Legislation US Congress: Currently it appears that any gun control bills are unlikely to pass the Senate. If there is any change and it looks like something may pass, I will update at that time. California Legislature: SB-448 California Emergency Services Act: emergency powers: limitation. This bill would enact the Emergency Power Limitation Act. The bill would require an emergency order, as defined, to be narrowly tailored to serve a compelling public health or safety purpose and limited in duration, applicability, and scope. The bill would authorize any person to bring an action to invalidate or enjoin enforcement of an emergency order that is allegedly unlawful.

  • Gun Shows I Have Seen and Been to How It Really Is
    Gun Shows I Have Seen and Been To How it Really Is I was commenting on our Kentucky gun shows recently and realized that in my travels over the United States, I had encountered many forms of gun shows in the different parts of the country and they all take on a different personality because people are a little different all over the United States. I guess one of my favorite “Skeeter Skelton” stories is his attendance at the Horse Thief, New Mexico gun show where he got the shaft on a faked Colt SA in .32-20. Worth looking up and reading if you haven’t read it before and always worth a second reading. I guess my first encounter with a gun show was in High Falls, North Carolina when I was in my teens. This wasn’t really a gun show as we know them today but was what I’d call a “swap session”. On every other Tuesday (by consent of the participants), the local gun nuts would gather at this small country store and trade guns out of the backs of their cars and pickups. The traders were “colorful” to say the least and tobacco juice littered the ground and you’d best stand upwind while making a trade or looking at an item. Now, this might seem kind of back woodsy but it was not unusual to see 15-20 thousand dollars worth of high-grade shotguns wrapped in blankets in the back of some guy’s car or pickup. Mostly Browning, L.C.

The details of the shooting beg the question, is it coincidence that it happened in Nevada, a state with some of the least restrictive gun control laws? Mass shootings have become an unfortunate part of reality in the United States, but these are fairly uncommon occurrences.

  • Ballot Initiative for Commonsense Gun Reform
    CONSENT CALENDAR BELVEDERE CITY COUNCIL MARCH 14, 2016 To: Mayor and City Council From: Police Chief Tricia Seyler Subject: Adopt a resolution in support of the “Safety for All” ballot initiative for commonsense gun reform Recommended Motion/Item Description Adopt the resolution and direct staff to forward copies to U.S. President Barack Obama, U.S. Senators Barbara Boxer and Diane Feinstein, Congresswoman Barbara Lee, Governor Jerry Brown, Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, California Senator Loni Hancock, and California Assemblymember Tony Thurmond. Background California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom announced a 2016 ballot initiative that would enact stricter gun laws in California. If approved, the package of commonsense gun reforms known as the “Safety for All” Initiative would require instant background checks for purchases of ammunition, strengthen background checks for gun purchases, prohibit possession of large detachable military-style magazines, and require individuals convicted of serious and violent crimes to immediately surrender firearms in their possession. The specific provisions of the draft initiative include: 1. Prohibit Possession of Large-Capacity Military-Style Magazines: The Safety for All Initiative will outlaw possession of large-capacity magazines of 11 rounds or more and provides for their legal disposal. If passed, California would join New York, New Jersey, Hawaii and the District of Columbia in banning possession of these military-style magazines. 2. Treat Ammunition Sales Like Gun Sales: The initiative requires licensing of ammunition vendors and point-of-sale background checks for ammunition purchases. Under the initiative, if a person is convicted of a felony, a violent misdemeanor, has a restraining order or has been declared dangerously mentally ill, they will no longer be able to buy ammunition in California.
