Orlando Pulse Survivors To Sue Police For Not Saving Them :: 06/09/2018
When it comes to mass shootings, I seem to have developed a tendency to blame the government. In fairness, we’ve seen governmental breakdowns lead to both Sutherland Springs and Parkland. Another example may well be the Pulse nightclub shooting almost two years ago. It seems the government knew about the killer well before he ever pulled the trigger.
The Bewildering Ignorance Of Anti-Gunners :: 06/09/2018
As I highlighted on Friday, anti-gunners don’t seem actually to know anything about guns. Their ignorance is obvious to anyone with even a cursory knowledge of firearms, but that doesn’t seem to matter. After all, they don’t need to know how to tell a Colt from a Daniel Defense weapon to know they’re all deadly, or so they might say.
Why Gun Registration Is Evil - Reason #6831 :: 06/09/2018
There’s absolutely nothing to gain by gun registration. At least, not for gun owners. While gun grabbers may love and adore it, convinced that they have found the solution to crime–if they’re particularly deluded, that is–gun owners tend to understand that registering their guns doesn’t really do anything to make them safer.
Brady Campaign Uses Handgun Deaths To Justify Assault Weapon Ban :: 06/08/2018

Anti-Gun Veteran Spreads Rhetoric, But Facts Don't Add Up :: 06/07/2018
As a veteran, I’m annoyed by those who use their veteran status to try and attack our sacred and constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms. Many of these claiming that their military experience gives them perspective because they carried guns every day turn out to be people who were in the rear with the gear much of the time and are far from the operators they like to portray themselves as.

In recent weeks, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago has expanded its gun program with the support of Cardinal Blase Cupich.

How 'Improvised' And 'Craft-Built' Weapons Kill All Gun Control Arguments :: 06/07/2018
When anti-gunners start pontificating all about how cracking down on legal gun sales will somehow make our communities safer, many of us want to roll our eyes. Why? Because we know better.
Texas Student Group Stands To Oppose Parkland Kids :: 06/07/2018

Time to be an Adult . . or Not :: 06/06/2018
I can’t make this stuff up. In one breath we’re told that anti-gun spokes-children from Florida should be admired for their sincerity. Then, we’re told that young men and women under 21 years of age are too immature to make serious decisions and understand the consequences of their actions. That is why they can’t possess firearms. Hmm.

DRGO: The AMA versus Americans :: 06/05/2018
The AMA just announced that it will make an “unprecedented” push for more gun control laws through resolutions presented at its House of Delegates at its next annual meeting June 9-13. This is not really unprecedented, as the AMA has been advocating anti-gun measures for three decades now, along with many co-conspirator specialty associations. But it is a way for it to jump on the current popular bandwagon for restricting guns since some of the teenagers from the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas Valentine’s Day shootings have become media celebrities.
