There's No Such Thing as Ghost Guns :: 04/28/2022

FPC Files Lawsuit Against San Jose’s Unconstitutional Gun Insurance Scheme :: 04/27/2022
Today, attorneys for Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) filed a new lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California challenging the City of San Jose’s ordinance requiring gun owners to purchase liability insurance and pay a fee in order to exercise their Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.

Edmonds Preemption Victory Was Defeat for Everytown Anti-Gun Lobby :: 04/26/2022

How Can Second Amendment Supporters Go On Offense? :: 04/26/2022

O'Rourke experiences cancel culture, Texas-style :: 04/26/2022

In a sometimes bristling letter to Joe Biden, veteran U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA) has thrown down a gauntlet, advising the president, “It is disturbing to see Democrats refuse to take responsibility for the rising crime rate and find other people to blame, such as lawful firearms owners.”
How guns have become a huge issue in the PA Senate race :: 04/25/2022
Tonight the Republicans vying to replace retiring U.S. Senator Pat Toomey will square off on a debate stage, and I suspect that Dr. Mehmet Oz’s past support for new gun control laws will be a major line of attack for several of the candidates on the debate stage. Oz has been running neck and neck with former hedge fund manager David McCormick, but the first poll conducted in the state after Donald Trump’s endorsement of the celebrity doctor showed him with a three point lead over McCormick, with political commentator Kathy Barnette and former U.S. ambassador to Denmark Carla Sands the only other candidates polling in double digits.
Is Maryland’s Attorney General Ignorant or Dishonest? :: 04/25/2022
The Maryland Attorney General filed a recent amicus brief with the US Supreme Court. Attorney General Brian Frosh said that the state is justified in banning modern rifles because those weapons have been used to commit mass murder. AG Frosh mentions violent attacks that happened outside of Maryland. For some reason, the Attorney General failed to mention the far larger number of cases where honest citizens used a rifle for justified self-defense. If this is an omission then it is an oversight the size of the Grand Canyon.

Biden's war on gun not playing well with public :: 04/23/2022
President Joe Biden pays lip service to the Second Amendment. Most politicians do, of course. After all, they know that many Americans aren’t comfortable with a total gun ban, if for no other reason than it’s undebatable that the Constitution prevents exactly that.
Chicago man on house arrest had two stolen guns in home :: 04/23/2022

Three of the Democratic candidates for the U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania met on a debate stage for the first time on Thursday night, and while there were some slight differences in how each of them approached the issue of “gun violence,” they’re pretty much on the same page when it comes to gun control: they like it, they love it, they want a lot more of it.

Gun control activists insist that by reducing the supply of firearms available to criminals, we can dramatically reduce violent crime, though they’ve never been able to adequately explain how exactly that’s supposed to work in a nation with 400-million firearms, 100-million gun owners, and the constitutionally-protected right to keep and bear arms.
