Likewise, he can abstain from drugs, while contending for another’s right to use them, and never himself own a firearm, but advocate for those who do. These can exist without contradiction, although at first […]
By Larry Keane Gun control activists are lining their pockets with taxpayer-funded coronavirus economic relief while at the same time paying millions to antigun candidates who would crush the Second Amendment rights of American citizens. The difficulty is deciding which is more infuriating, the wanton abuse of taxpayer-funded support for small businesses or the audacity […]
