Rhode v Becerra Regardless of the rubes on the 9th Circuit, St. Benitez is my spirt animal. Most of you are well aware by now of his order in Rhode v Becerra. You are also probably aware that the State was not about to tolerate a judge telling it to obey the Constitution. It immediately filed...
I have been a member of Safari Club International for years. We are a hunting club… and, as such, a political organization. A ways back, the California government was toying with the idea of restricting hunting… I know… shocking, huh?!? Its methodology was interesting though, and to its credit it had employed a Machiavellian scheme...
Rhode v. Becerra: The Supplemental Brief This last week, Sean Brady, an attorney with Michele and Associates, filed a supplemental brief with the court in the case of Rhode v. Becerra.

The transcript was then leaked to Wikileaks by a Russian whistleblower. Wikileaks did not want to publish the document so an internal mole from...
So… over the last couple of days, I have received numerous requests to comment on an article regarding the conviction of Michael Drejka in Florida. Many of you may remember this case. Mr. Drejka, a CCW holder, became upset that someone was parked in a handicapped parking spot at a local convenience store. Evidence was shown...
A causal proposal. MAJ Cosmo Taormina and I were having a bit of a philosophical conversation the other day. I was upset… deeply upset (Actually, that is not true. I was, frankly, somewhat amused.) at a poor Yelp review we had received. The author, “Mr. B,” had emailed me last week after the blog email went...
“I have in my hand proof that the Department of State is infested with Communists!” So began the meteoric rise and Icarian fall of Senator Joseph McCarthy. Funny thing is that he was correct up to a point. The Soviets we now know were actively involved as recruiting agents to infiltrate our government. Some of this...
