While none of the candidates vying for the Democratic presidential nomination can be said to be anything but bad on Second Amendment rights, there’s always that one. Eric “Duke Nukem” Swalwell ran his low-single-digit campaign on a platform of enforcing unconstitutional edicts with overwhelming military force. He was the stalking horse for other, more credible […]
The quote of the day is presented by Guns.com. HuffPo is outraged — OUTRAGED! — that the president has dropped any mention of gun control measures. They attribute this, of course, to cynical political calculation and deals made with the NRA. As the subhead of the article notes, Trump “has made it clear that his priority […]
OK, maybe “breaking” isn’t really appropriate in the case of something that’s been inevitable for weeks now. But Robert Francis O’Rourke, cultural appropriator and aspiring gun-grabber, has posted notice of the death of his presidential aspirations at Medium . . . Though it is difficult to accept, it is clear to me now that this […]
From the CCRKBA . . . The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms today declared there is a “hidden agenda” behind the impeachment efforts of House Democrats led by Nancy Pelosi and it is designed to tie up the U.S. Senate and derail efforts to confirm more pro-Second Amendment judges to […]
The quote of the day is presented by Guns.com. Robert Francis O’Rourke made a campaign stop in Newtown, Connecticut on Wednesday. There, the anti-gun left’s most prominent proponent of forced firearms confiscation got a little more pushback community input that he bargained for from local resident Rebecca Carnes. They’re here to hijack this town and to […]
Time and again laws already on the books could have or should have been used to stop (murderers) from obtaining weapons. From the Sandy Hook shooting to Parkland, Florida, to El Paso and Dayton, law enforcement either had the tools and did not use them to stop these shooters early or the background system worked and […]
Gun owners have their work cut out for them here in the deep blue state of Illinois. Democrats have super-majorities in both the House and Senate and Governor J.B. Pritzker hasn’t met a gun control measure he opposes. A particularly bad gun control bill, SB-1966, awaited a vote in the veto session. It had lots […]
“They’re taking up a fight against me on something the Legislature has to do, and they think I have the authority not to follow the law. I do oppose this law. However, it’s my not my job to oppose a law; my job is to enforce the law.” That’s the position of Humboldt County Nevada […]
Moms Demand Action recently held a Firearms 101 Presentation in the great state of New Jersey. The New Jersey Second Amendment Society helpfully documented some interesting apparent law violations that the Moms’ firearms expert committed during the educational event. It’s almost as if guest speaker Scott Pappalardo wants to go to prison for the rest […]
Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke has a plan to get AR-15s and “AK-47s” off the street. Of course, you’ve heard all about his “buyback,” but now he’s explained how he’ll pay for it without costing taxpayers a cent. “I think a mandatory buyback can be financed with a surcharge that would be paid by gun manufacturers, […]
Rep. Margaret Good has filed House Bill 451. Her apparent intent (to give her the benefit of the doubt) is to require universal preemptively-prove-your-innocence background checks on all firearm sales. She complains, “This is the. third. time. I’ve filed this legislation.” I think I see why this keeps failing. It’s a poorly written mess that […]
Today in the Senate I will be introducing the Restoring, Enhancing, Strengthening, and Promoting Our Nation’s Safety Efforts – or RESPONSE – Act. This bill will include a number of provisions to prevent attacks and make our communities safer. The RESPONSE Act creates nationwide task forces to investigate and prosecute those who are illegally selling […]
