Following the storming of the Capitol on Wednesday by a mob claiming to be supporters of President Donald Trump, some members of Congress are calling on Vice President Mike Pence and Trump’s Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment so as to remove Trump from office, despite there being less than two weeks left in Trump’s term of office.

Proposed Gun "Buyback" Won't Reduce Philly Violence :: 01/07/2021
It’s human nature to want to do something to fix a problem, but just doing “something” is rarely enough.

The Self-Immolation Of The GOP And What It Means For 2A :: 01/06/2021
As I write this, it looks like Raphael Warnock has won a U.S. Senate in Georgia, while the race between Republican David Perdue and Democrat Jon Ossoff remains too close to call. Who’s to blame? Fingers are being pointed at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for thwarting a vote on $2000 stimulus checks shortly before Election Day, Kraken theorists like Lin Wood and Sidney Powell who encouraged voters to stay home, President Donald Trump for bashing the Republican governor and secretary of state while also embracing the idea that the presidential election in November had been stolen and the voting process could not be trusted; as well as Gov. Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger themselves, for allowing the fraud to continue with the Senate elections.

Colorado Case Shows The Folly Of Red Flag Laws :: 01/05/2021
One of my big complaints about “red flag” laws (beyond the constitutional concerns over due process and the Second Amendment) is that they provide prosecutors and police with a tool that allows them to say they’ve “done something,” rather than doing something effective to deal with an individual who truly presents a danger to themselves or others.

She was only sworn in this past weekend, but Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is already making her mark on the nation’s capitol with her public pronouncements about exercising her right to carry.

In Suprise Move, OH Gov Signs "Stand Your Ground" Bill :: 01/04/2021
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signed a self-defense bill into law on Monday, despite suggesting a couple of weeks ago that he was leaning towards vetoing the measure. In mid-December the governor complained that Republicans in charge of the state house should be focused on his Ohio STRONG package of gun legislation rather than improving the state’s Stand Your Ground law, telling reporters “I’ve made it very clear, I think, many times, going back months, that I felt that before the legislature took up other gun bills, that they really should focus on what we have sent them.”

Psychology Today’s Exploration Of Guns Has Flawed Premise :: 01/04/2021
A lot of places that should ostensibly eschew most politics have been jumping all over politics for years. It’s one thing when a magazine that supports a profession touches on political issues directly related to its field–for example, a magazine for the oil industry touching on energy policy regularly–but these days, everyone wants to pretend to be a political wonk.
