By Larry Keane Throw out the stereotypes on American gun ownership. They’re just wrong. Against the backdrop of historically high firearm sales, one major theme is shattering misconceptions that America’s gun owners are “old white men.” A surge in gun buyers across the country in 2020, more than 2.5 million since March alone, has boosted the diversity of the […]
By Larry Keane Head Mom Shannon Watts has a new demand. When America is done giving up their guns, she wants police to go next. Shannon Watts, head of the Michael Bloomberg-funded Moms Demand Action, told Fortune magazine that, “Police violence is gun violence.” Watts has dropped a lot of outrageous remarks, but this is beyond the […]

By Ryan McMillan I’ve come to believe that a person who considers homosexual behavior a sin can still support gay rights. 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.

Previously I carried my 1943 Walther P38. It was the perfect choice at a time where it was my duty as a good Na…citizen to patrol the neighborhood and enforce COVID-19 regulations. Well, we are at a new point in our nation’s history now, so a new sidearm is called for. That’s why I now […]
From the Second Amendment Foundation: The Second Amendment Foundation today said the recent revelation that the anti-gun rights Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence took a federal Paycheck Protection Loan worth up to $1 million, while working to keep gun stores closed is an “outrageous exploitation of the COVID-19 pandemic to prevent people from exercising […]

By Larry Keane Big city mayors must have a standard checklist in the back of their press briefing binders. That page would have one entry that would read: “When your failed policies create chaos, blame guns.” It would sound ridiculous, but that is what is happening. Crime is skyrocketing in New York City, Chicago, Atlanta […]
As we’ve pointed out frequently in the past, marijuana may be legal in your state, but it’s still a Schedule I controlled substance as far as the federal government is concerned.
