Florida now officially has a Republican-backed universal background check bill in play. Sen. Tom Lee of the Senate’s Committee on Infrastructure and Security brought up SPB 7028 yesterday. The committee is made up of eight members, five Republicans and three Democrats. The committee voted unanimously for SPB 7028 and passed the proposal except for one […]
By John Stokes If you want to see first-hand how America could conceivably slip back into the kind of political violence we saw in the 1970’s, then you should take a look at what’s currently unfolding in Virginia. It’s one of the best case studies in recent years of how social-media-fueled rumors, changing demographics, the […]
By Dennis Petrocelli, MD If the Bloomberg-financed gun confiscation crowd gets anything right, it is their consistently beguiling messaging. In the same way that The Force in Star Wars bends the will of the weak-minded, confiscationists use language that requires us first to disabuse the public of their empty rhetoric before we can actually discuss the facts about […]
Trying to judge the most anti-gun Democrat in the 2020 presidential nomination field is like trying to determine which which TV talking head is the most insipid and annoying. Each one is so qualified and the differences are so slight that comparisons are futile. But with media clowns like Eric Swalwell and Robert Francis O’Rourke […]
It’s good to have a bottomless bank account. Well, we hear it is. Anti-gun financier and presidential vanity candidate Michael Bloomberg has dropped $200 million dollars on his drive for the Democrat nomination so far. And he’s only been in the race since the middle of November. To put that in perspective, the rest of […]
By Theresa Inacker Earlier this week, gun control’s Daddy Warbucks, Michael Bloomberg, said what most Democrats are thinking: “You just do not want the average citizen carrying a gun in a crowded place.” This is the elitist, aristocratic, oligarchy our Founders warned us about, manifested before our very eyes. To arrogant elitists like Bloomberg, the […]
Just kidding! The above photo is from a Moms Demand Action event in Florida (note the palm trees). Here’s the actual turnout for yesterday’s Virginia MDA lobby day: Look at them all. Almost two dozen! I think I’ve seen more people waiting to be seated at Denny’s on a Tuesday afternoon. Here the teeming throng […]
By Jeff Hulbert Virginia State Senator David Marsden wants you know he is filled with regret after his most recent “listening session” with Second Amendment activists. Marsden was caught on an open microphone at a hearing this past week disparaging gun rights supporters as childish, and even mentally ill. Sen. Marsden has now gone public […]
Senator Steve Daines of Montana, along with co-sponsors Senators James Lankford, Mike Rounds, Mike Crapo, and Ted Cruz, have introduced Senate Bill 3139: Lawful Interstate Transportation of Firearms Act. The bill would “amend chapter 44 of title 18, United States Code, to more comprehensively address the interstate transportation of firearms or ammunition.” This bill addresses […]
Virginia Delegate Dan Helmer pre-filed House Bill 567 recently. If enacted, the bill would ban any indoor shooting range not owned by the commonwealth or the federal government…with an exception and some onerous reporting requirements. You can read the bill here. First, smaller indoor ranges would be exempt. As the bill states, Virginia would allow […]
By Larry Keane Billionaire Michael Bloomberg is stumping on the presidential campaign trail telling Americans they can’t be trusted to exercise their right to own a gun. Not for self-protection. Not for recreational shooting or hunting. Not even because it’s a God-given right enshrined in the Bill of Rights. He says this, of course, surrounded […]
By Jeff Hulbert Virginia Beach, the state’s largest city, has formally added its voice to the chorus of Old Dominion gun rights supporting jurisdictions that are demanding a halt to sweeping new infringement proposals that are widely regarded statewide as unconstitutional. The Virginia Beach City Council—with one member absent—voted 6-to-4 to send a resolution to […]
