GOOD QUESTION: Why is Kweisi Mfume Funneling $245K in Federal Funds to Johns Hopkins for Gun Locks That Are Already Available for Free? “But maybe the prospect of the Bloomberg School, that’s named for America’s most prominent gun-grabber, handing out locks provided by the gun industry is more than anyone at Johns Hopkins can handle. Better, then, to have taxpayers foot the bill, right? Besides, the school has demonstrated that they’re more than happy to hoover up as many federal tax dollars as they can to further the cause of civilian disarmament.”

Or maybe the money went somewhere else — who knows?

DISPATCHES FROM THE BLUE ZONES: Gun rights restrictions moving right along in Colorado legislature.

A series of gun rights restrictions are at various stages in the Colorado’s legislative process, with some bills awaiting action by Gov. Polis, others still in the committee process, and a heavily negotiated gun barrel regulation bill held up in its final reading in the House.
…
Senate Bill 26-004 ‘Expand List of Petitioners for Protection Orders’ passed third reading in the House on March 20 with a 39-24 vote and is awaiting action by Gov. Polis.

The Democrat sponsored bill dramatically expands those eligible to file for an Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) under Colorado’s so-called ‘red flag’ law, to include teachers, health care providers and “institutional petitioners.’
…
Under existing Colorado law, Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs) must also have a state permit to sell firearms. House Bill 26-1126 requires dealers to obtain a separate permit to transfer forearms. The bill also extends dealer training requirements and prior license violation laws to ‘responsible persons’ of the dealer. This includes anyone who handles, sells, or has access to a firearm as part of their business duties.
…
House Bill 26-1302 would allow the Colorado Bureau of investigations (CBI) to determine their own hours of operation, rather than functioning every calendar day for 12 hours. Gun rights advocates worry this could lead to a slowdown in transmitting background checks for firearm purchases.
…
House Bill 26-1144 prohibits the 3D printing of firearms and firearm components. The final bill was watered down to appease Gov. Polis, with a provision to criminalize the selling or distributing of the digital instructions to 3D print a firearm removed.
…
Democrat sponsored Senate Bill 26-043 ‘Record Keeping and Regulation of Sale of Firearm Barrels,’ requires all firearm barrel sales or transfers to be conducted in person, only by a federally licensed (FFL) dealer. The bill criminalizes private or online firearm barrel transactions, or any non-FFL with the ‘intent to offer or sell’ a barrel.

This is what happens when Democrats take over.

AS GOD AND SAM HOUSTON INTENDED: Texas continues cutting services for illegal immigrants.

A report by the Texas Tribune detailed the steps taken, which include tightening eligibility requirements for occupational licenses, restricting access to commercial driver’s licenses, and limiting who can qualify for in-state tuition at public universities. According to the report, more than 6,400 refugees and DACA recipients have lost their commercial driver’s licenses. Additional restrictions are expected to affect noncitizens working in licensed industries such as construction and medicine.

State officials are also examining the 1982 Supreme Court ruling Plyler v. Doe, which requires public schools to educate noncitizens.

“Benefits, licenses, and taxpayer-funded services should not be used to incentivize unlawful presence at the expense of hardworking Texans,” a spokesperson for Governor Greg Abbott said in a statement. “These steps ensure compliance with federal law, protect the integrity of our systems, and prioritize jobs and resources for legal residents and citizens.”

The efforts, however, have been met with backlash by activists.

Ignore them and move on.

HMM: China Reports Outbreak of Livestock Disease Near Russian Regions Hit by Mass Cattle Culling.

Chinese officials reportedly said the highly contagious strain, which is immune to vaccines that are currently available domestically, likely entered “from abroad.” Xinjiang borders Russia, Mongolia and Kazakhstan, including a narrow frontier with the Siberian republic of Altai, adjacent to the Altai region, where most of Russia’s recent cattle culling has taken place.

China’s agriculture ministry said last week that 219 cattle across two herds of 6,229 tested positive for a variant of foot-and-mouth disease. Officials have since ordered culling and disinfection measures in Xinjiang and the neighboring Gansu province, as well as stepped up patrols to prevent the disease from entering through smuggling or the illegal transportation of livestock.

The outbreak follows the culling of roughly 90,000 head of cattle across nine Russian regions since February, with analysts estimating that around 80% were in the Altai region. Russian authorities have attributed the losses to rabies, pasteurellosis and other unspecified illnesses.

The scale of the culling in Altai and other regions has raised suspicions that Russia may be concealing a more serious disease outbreak.

Ugh.

OH, CANADA: Canada Going On Gun-Grabbing Spree.

Then-Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau introduced legislation known as C-21 to freeze handgun purchases and a “buy back” of military-style semi-automatic firearms in May 2022, with the bill receiving Royal Assent in December 2023. Conservative Member of Parliament Dane Lloyd of Alberta questioned Minister of Public Safety Gary Anandasangaree about the apparent large-scale refusal to comply from gun owners.

“Minister, the declaration period for firearms owners is scheduled to end next week. So far, only 2.5 percent of the estimated two million effected firearms have been declared and 98 percent [of] firearms owners haven’t made a declaration,” Lloyd said. “So, if they’re not declaring by next week, what’s your plan, Minister?”

The legislation contained an Australia-style “buyback” of so-called “assault weapons” after Trudeau’s government banned over 2,500 types of modern semiautomatic firearms following a 2020 mass shooting in Nova Scotia.

“The plan we have is as of March 31st, the time to complete the enrollment, will be, will be done and then the RCMP and other agencies will be available throughout the spring and the summer to do the collection,” Anandasangaree responded.

“Collection.”

COVID IS SO OVER: ‘Humiliating’: Pfizer cancels COVID vaccine trial for lack of interest as global scrutiny mounts.

Five years after their wide deployment, first on a voluntary basis, then under threat of firing for nearly 100 million Americans at the direction of the White House, COVID-19 vaccines for at least low-risk groups may be on the way out amid higher regulatory requirements and indifference to the jabs by the vast majority of Americans.

Pfizer and its COVID mRNA vaccine partner BioNTech abruptly pulled the plug on their trial for healthy 50-64 year-olds, telling trial investigators in a March 30 letter they were coming up short on the 25,000-30,000 enrollment needed to generate enough data to evaluate the jabs, Reuters reported, citing a letter it viewed.

Friday was the last day that Pfizer was scheduled to monitor trial participants for signs of COVID illness, the letter reportedly said. “Two sources from companies” that manage 9% of trial sites told the wire service that Pfizer told them in writing weeks earlier to stop recruitment.

“This study is not ending as a result of any safety or benefit-risk concerns,” Pfizer and BioNTech told the wire service, citing their “inability to generate relevant post-marketing data” with lagging enrollment.

And yet there are still people wearing cloth masks.
